Starting with Growing Mushrooms-Chapter 383 - 297: The Chaos Sun and the New Era

The gods gather today.

This is the second return of God.

If there are no surprises, then this time, God should have found a new place for trials.

They are here managing logistics, advancing closer to the Seventh Tier!

But the sun overhead weighs heavily on their minds.

"Who knows what that thing is?" The Demon God Cain couldn’t help asking.

"Chaos."

The God of Magic Bal instinctively said: "This name naturally appeared in my mind; it is the ultimate power of my divine lineage."

Chaos?

The gods hesitated for a moment.

That destructive power, seemingly mixing all the elements of light and dark, indeed aligns with this series’ traits.

"But hasn’t your new Divine Object yet to be born?"

The Goddess of Fertility pondered for a moment, "Could it be that this Divine Object appeared in the olden days and is now used by some unknown person?"

With these words.

The first thought was of the Longevity Divine Spirit.

"No, it could also be crafted by hand." At this time, from the luxurious throne above came the voice of God.

Everyone turned to look.

They found God, exuding an awe-inspiring, incomparably mysterious aura, had already quietly sat upon the throne.

The gods rejoiced, and after saluting, hurriedly said:

"In the thousands of years of your absence, we have turned this star sea into a massive tropical rainforest, akin to the explosive Jurassic Period of old!"

The moist starlit sea breeze, islands teeming with insects, and various giant beasts in the sea, their results were indeed beyond expectations.

It could be called the Starry Jurassic.

Liu Jun was not surprised by this: I’m overpowered, isn’t altering the cosmos’s environment perfectly normal?

Afterwards, the Goddess of Fertility stepped forward, displaying an illusory scene in her hands, within which was the completed Tower of Babel, with a pearl inlaid on top.

"We have also completed the tower under the sea, capable of extracting prehistorical relics continuously from the ocean floor to enrich our magic galaxy."

God nodded slightly, continuing to listen to everyone’s introduction: "Continue."

The thinking exchange between God and the gods was very fast.

In just three seconds, a vast amount of data was exchanged, clearing up all the development of the entire region over the years.

Then, they began to discuss the anomalies above: the Chaos Sun.

"Enough words, just approach it directly." Everyone took out the temporary travel permission given by the Longevity Divine Spirit and flew straight out of the domain of the gods.

When they arrived at the location of the sun, they saw a sense of awe as if mortals were seeing the sun.

Golden, the Chaos Sun churned with curling waves, steaming with heat, yet everyone knew it was not heat in the conventional sense, but more a concept of thermal extinction.

A vast, endless aura washed over them.

It made one feel incredibly small, as if everything that entered would be obliterated.

"Mighty Divine Spirit, you say this isn’t the appearance of a Chaos Divine Object?" Bal asked from the side.

"No."

God extended a finger, gathering countless powers, blending them in perfect proportion; thus, a chaotic speck the size of a grain of rice was born.

Hand-crafted, chaos?

Everyone looked in surprise at the sun, God truly was omniscient and omnipotent.

God directly threw this speck of chaos into the distant sun, turning to say to everyone: "Chaos can be man-made... even theoretically, those ordinary civilizations in the cosmos could create chaos."

Everyone frowned slightly.

Chaos, is it a natural celestial phenomenon that doesn’t rely on a Divine Object’s birth?

Like the natural wonder of a black hole?

But having a Divine Object, perfectly coordinating various attributes with Divine Power, is already so challenging to construct.

It would only be harder for ordinary civilizations, wouldn’t it?

Just like theoretically, everyone can break through to the Seventh Tier, but in reality, has any ordinary civilization achieved it?

But it cannot be ruled out that this so-called Chaos Sun was created by a foreign civilization secretly entering, ready to take us gods by surprise.

"But I am more inclined to believe it was created by some Goddess of Destiny."

Fortuna said coldly:

"A Goddess of Destiny usually works behind the scenes, using a protagonist of fate as a pawn, conspiring and then moving, leveraging the world... and this ultimate Goddess of Destiny, using celestial phenomena as a pawn to change the world’s destiny, is reasonable, isn’t it?"

"Makes sense." The God of Evolution Cain nodded.

Though he and Fortuna were at odds, she was right.

"Very reasonable."

Evidently, God also recognized this view, it was indeed some Goddess of Destiny causing trouble, "Fortuna, going forward, we will fully support you in divining the future brought by the Chaos Sun!"

"Makes sense!" said Lady of Death Scouti, as if she hadn’t done it herself.

Quickly, with the blessings of the gods, Fortuna began to perform the divination.

But unfortunately, the perspective from which destiny was seen grew narrower.

After a while, Fortuna looked somewhat pale from exhaustion,

"I see the ultimate destruction of the world, the Chaos Sun is the weapon for the epoch’s end!"

Liu Jun was not surprised by this.

The gods were worried, then obtained information from Fortuna.

1. This sun continues to expand, undergoing several growth stages.

And under the irradiation of this Chaos Sun, civilization will enter a stage of rapid advancement.

The Chaos Sun, completes a crucial link in the current life evolution.

2. The growth rate of the Chaos Sun isn’t as quick as imagined.

Because chaos grows by absorbing matter, but the vast cosmic starry sky is too sparse in matter.

So unless various substances are actively thrown into this sun, its expansion rate is not quick.

It will take eighty million years to grow exponentially and lead to cosmic destruction.

Hearing this, Liu Jun hesitated slightly, "Eighty million years? If this is indeed the timeframe, then for me, the benefits of this Chaos Sun outweigh the drawbacks!"

Given eighty million years, who could tell what kind of development I would achieve.

However.

Liu Jun vaguely had a premonition.

Eighty million years is just theoretical; in reality, the growth rate of this sun will be much faster.

Why?

The reason is simple.

Because in parallel worlds, although Liu Jun hasn’t witnessed it firsthand, previous introductions mentioned this ultimate Goddess of Destiny being killed several times.

The growth speed of the Chaos Sun likely won’t take thousands of years.

Therefore, the threat of chaos is imminent!

So, how should I resolve this?

Liu Jun’s idea was simple, "If Scouti dares to unleash chaos, it means she has a way to escape, or to deal with it..."

"I’ll just keep an eye on her."

The opponent must have spent countless simulations over these ten thousand years to find the only way to survive.

And I can just take advantage of her hard work.

We’ll avoid chaos together.

Even taking a step back, what if Scouti can’t avoid chaos? Wants to go down with me?

Liu Jun is not afraid.

Because if chaos really strikes, I can just hide in the Mushroom Soup.

Moreover, when chaos reopens the heavens and earth, I can hide in the Mushroom Soup and enter the next era.

And when chaos arrives, the cosmos is rebooted, I can take this chance to scoop the cosmos into my pot, isn’t that wonderful?

So no matter how it’s calculated, I have a way out.

Moreover.

Chaos is my only means to absorb the entire cosmos into the Mushroom Soup.

Therefore, Liu Jun is not panicked at all. Instead, he looks at the sun in the sky with curiosity, "Chaos, the power it brings is truly warm!"

"Yes."

The God of Magic Bal’s gaze is both fearful and delighted, very complex, "I can feel my power being greatly amplified under the warm rays of this sun, a qualitative change has arrived!"

Liu Jun also felt Bal’s strength.

Epic strengthening!

It was only now that Liu Jun suddenly reacted.

The ultimate Divine Object of the Attribute Series isn’t necessarily meant to be absorbed.

But to hang above one’s head.

To amplify myself, the God of Magic?

The current Bal, can be considered a unique complete Demon God of the entire series collection.

"Congratulations!"

"Congratulations!"

The gods kept celebrating.

In the following days, the gods continued to study the data of the chaos sun.

They even made a bold decision:

To expand the area of the chaos sun!

To enlarge this ten-meter diameter sun to a thousand meters in area!

Let this sun enter the next stage, illuminating this magic galaxy cluster.

So when the sun reached a thousand meters in size, the countdown to the end of the world had only 80,000 years left.

Then.

The gods began to guide this sun away from their galaxy.

To create enough distance to avoid being engulfed by the sun’s searing heat while enjoying its warmth, staying near an optimal habitable zone.

Then, the gods began clearing the matter around this chaos sun, trying to prevent it from absorbing matter and expanding.

Under this artificial "diet" control, the sun’s feeding speed slowed.

According to their calculations, the cosmic apocalypse was extended to 20 million years.

Thus.

A chaos sun of appropriate size, yet not rapidly expanding, hung overhead, beginning to promote great life evolution in the irradiated regions.

"What is that?"

"I feel warmth!"

"A brand-new sun, unbelievable, what on earth is this?"

"The power of my fire element magic has skyrocketed!"

"So has my water element magic."

"The alchemists feel the same."

The professional version has received a major update, with attribute mages having an epic enhancement.

Only beastmasters practicing evolution magic, fortune-tellers practicing fate magic, and spatial mages on the side, were heartbroken, full of helplessness.

Originally, mages of various basic attributes were numerous, the most ordinary kind.

Now you have risen to the top?

And we rare professions not only are few in number but also weaker than you in combat power?

No matter what, the new era erupted just like that.

...

Butterfly Race, God Myth, year 49165.

The gods, returning to their divine abode, re-entered slumber, quietly awaiting the changes of the era.

And the God of Magic Bal, for a time, directly ascended to the pinnacle of the era, crushing the Goddess of Destiny.

Countless magical believers, various magic churches began expanding aggressively.

Even, because the birth of the chaos sun was too dazzling, many powerful civilizations sensed this power and began to converge here.

"God civilization?"

"Too exaggerated."

"I didn’t expect the stories in the myths to exist in reality!"

Numerous natives coming in increased the number of living forces significantly.

Also, as the population became increasingly diverse, the number of malevolent strong individuals gradually increased.

In fact, they followed the God of Magic Bal, and under the push of some people, began to challenge the God of Evolution.

"The God of Evolution should submit to our God of Magic!"

"Yes, what beastmaster, mastering evolution, should submit to the power of our fire element magic!"

"No, submit to the power of the alchemist!"

Under the push of those with intentions, the followers of the gods began an internal war.

Year 49861.

The divine war broke out.

Wolf, a new strong figure of the Chaos Sect that worships Bal, took action, rallying a large number of magicians to begin attacking the evolution factions.

A divine war belonging to mortals erupted!

Behind the war on both sides, there were corresponding True Gods as backers.

The God of Magic Bal and the Goddess of Destiny were on good terms, naturally having no favorable feelings towards the Demon God Cain, naturally not intervening to mediate the war.

"That Wolf is an outsider, quite a talent."

The God of Magic Bal exchanged words with Fortuna, instantly learning about the background of this new strong figure following his faction.

"Perhaps he can help us defeat Cain."
