The Origins of the Four Continents and the Secret of Their Shattering!

Chu Xinghe is not a very curious person!

Chu Xinghe's reputation for not liking gossip is well-deserved...

However, regarding the secret of the Four Continents' shattering, Chu Xinghe once inquired with Elder He. Elder He explained that there was no clear record of it in any ancient texts; it was as if the Four Continents suddenly shattered one day...

Everything seemed perfectly natural!

But that's the power that tears a world into four pieces!

What terrifying power is this? To say that such power appeared out of nowhere seems a bit far-fetched.

But today... Chu Xinghe came to the Well of Prophecy, and he believed that the three elders of the Well Spirits must know something.

After all, they are the guardians of the Well of Prophecy; they have existed since the Well of Prophecy was born... and they have existed to this day...

They couldn't possibly be unaware of the shattering of the Four Continents!

"You know that the world is divided into Four Continents, but do you know the origin of these Four Continents?" Well Spirits Great Elder asked slowly.

Legend has it that countless eons ago, this world did not have the concept of Four Continents; it was a single, unified world...

This world is home to countless races!

But one day, an Ancient God's body fell from the sky, shattering the heavens and earth. His body was split into four by an incomparably powerful force, and his head fell into the Spirit Beast Continent, becoming the Land of Bewildered Spirits and the Well of Prophecy.

His body fell to the Blazing Sun Continent, becoming the Spirit-Bewildering Ridge of the Blazing Sun Continent; his hands fell to the Demon Star Continent, turning into the Spirit-Bewildering Wasteland; and his legs fell to the Evil Shadow Continent, turning into the Spirit-Bewildering Sea!

The Four Continents are also new worlds formed after the Ancient Gods fell and shattered the entire world. In the Land of Bewildered Spirits the Spirit Beast Continent, there is the Well of Prophecy. It is said that the Well of Prophecy is the embodiment of the wisdom of the Ancient Gods left behind by the Ancient God's Head. It has the ability to know the past Future, to discern all things in the world, and to understand the mysteries of heaven and earth.

As for what lies in the regions where the Ancient Gods of the other Three Continents have manifested, even Well Spirits doesn't know...

Because their race fell to earth with the body of Ancient God, and the Ancient God's head transformed into the Well of Prophecy, they were also bound by the power of the Ancient God, and could only remain here as well Well Spirits to guard the Well of Prophecy.

As for what the other Ancient Gods ' bodies actually transformed into, no one knows.

Because now, of the Four Continents, only the Land of Bewildered Spirits in the Spirit Beast Continent allows one to reach the central area and discover the Well of Prophecy. The other Three Continents, not to mention the Evil Shadow Continent, have not even seen the return of the fallen. The Spirit-Bewildering Ridge of the Blazing Sun Continent and the Spirit-Bewildering Wasteland of the Demon Star Continent are truly said to be places where even gods would get lost.

When Gu Mingchao was accidentally sent in by the Grand Elder, Gu Mingchao almost got lost even on the outer perimeter, which shows how dangerous the other two lost places were.

Listening to Well Spirits Great Elder's words, Chu Xinghe finally understood the origin of the Four Continents. The Four Continents were worlds that were forcibly created by the fallen Ancient Gods.

The era of myriad races mentioned by the Great Sage is real, but it was the era before the fall of the Ancient Gods. In that era, myriad races did indeed coexist. Afterwards, the Dark Moon Clan was sealed away, the Ancient Gods fell, shattering the world and creating the Four Continents. The Great Sage and the Dark Moon Clan have been sealed away ever since.

So the Great Sage seems to have some understanding of this world, but the world also seems different from what the Great Sage understands...

To be precise, the Four Continents are not complete; they were formed when the body of Ancient God shattered the world.

"Then what caused the Four Continents to fall back then?" Chu Xinghe's face was filled with curiosity...

Upon hearing Chu Xinghe's question, the Well Spirits Great Elder fell silent... He slowly shook his head and said, "Our clan transformed into Well Spirits to guard the Well of Prophecy. In truth, before the Four Continents were shattered, we still had tens of thousands of clansmen, and here was a city belonging to our Well Spirits..."

Then Well Spirits Great Elder recounted what he had seen back then...

After the Ancient Gods perished here, becoming the Well of Prophecy, they became the race that guarded Well of Prophecy. Throughout countless ages, the elders have sensed that the Well of Prophecy is alive...

The Wise One was able to obtain Great Prophecy Art because of the Well of Prophecy; it was the Well of Prophecy itself that guided the Wise One to obtain Great Prophecy Art within Well of Prophecy.

It's not about some Wise One creating Well of Prophecy at all. What right does Wise One have to create Well of Prophecy?

The Great Prophecy Art is a power that originates from outside the Heavenly Dao; it is a manifestation of the wisdom of the Ancient Gods and can transcend the heavens and earth!

But on the day the Four Continents shattered, a powerful force suddenly descended upon the world, a force so immense that even today, Well Spirits Great Elder still feels fear when he recalls it.

That power crashed down on the Land of Bewildered Spirits in the Four Continents, tearing the Well Spirits Clan to shreds in an instant. Of the tens of thousands of the Well Spirits Clan, only three remained.

Because the Well of Prophecy was still accessible back then, and the three of them were just children at the time, they hid beneath the Well of Prophecy to avoid being torn apart by that vast, universe-like power!

That power instantly descended upon the Four Continents, easily tearing them to shreds. Four Continents themselves shattered and vanished into the void. After the power dissipated, the three surviving members of the Well Spirits Clan —the current Three Well Spirits Elders —discovered... the Well of Prophecy was dead...

Or perhaps the Ancient God whose body split into four pieces truly died...

The three Three Well Spirits Elders of the Three Well Spirits Elders did not know what kind of power it was, but they knew that it was enough to destroy heaven and earth, and that it could even kill the remaining will of the Ancient God. It was a supreme Supreme power that transcended everything!

That was the power that shattered the Four Continents. Perhaps that power wasn't even meant to tear the Four Continents apart, but rather to kill the last remaining will of the Ancient God. The Four Continents were merely swept away by the aftershocks and shattered into pieces!

Listening to Three Well Spirits Elders's words, Chu Xinghe seemed to have some images in his mind at this moment.

On that day, everyone thought it was just an ordinary day, but suddenly four terrifying forces descended upon the world, instantly striking the Land of Bewildered Spirits in the Four Continents and killing the Ancient God's will that had transformed into the Land of Bewildered Spirits.

Although the will of the Ancient God bore almost the entire force, the aftershocks still surged out from the Land of Bewildered Spirits. Wherever the aftershocks passed, the body of the Beast God, who was said to be immortal and indestructible, was directly torn apart... leaving only his soul remaining.

The Human Race emperor perished on the spot, Demon God vanished into nothingness, leaving only the Demon God Avatar...

The heavens and earth dimmed before that power; on that day, countless lives were lost, and almost all the strong in the world were wiped out!

The power shattered the Four Continents completely, dimming the Spirit Power of heaven and earth, and from then on, the Four Continents were divided into four independent worlds!

A single strike, its aftershocks alone enough to shatter Four Continents... Chu Xinghe couldn't fathom what kind of power that was... Was it the might of heaven and earth, or... from some unknown, mysterious being?

Chu Xinghe had thought he would finally know the true reason for the shattering of the Four Continents, but Chu Xinghe now realized that knowing it or not knowing it made no difference.

After all, whether that power originated from heaven and earth or some mysterious entity, it was clearly beyond his ability to understand.

At this point, the Well Spirits Great Elder declared that after that day, the Well of Prophecy died... it lost all life force, and from that day onward, the Well of Prophecy could no longer be entered casually...

To obtain the water from the Well of Prophecy, it seems only the power of Great Prophecy Art can temporarily open the Well of Prophecy and grant access to its water.

Compared to Chu Xinghe's lament over the death of the Ancient God of the Well of Prophecy, Hua Xichen was more concerned with how to obtain the water from the Well of Prophecy to help his Brother Xinghe!

The destruction of the Four Continents is too far in the future. What I, Hua Xichen, most want to do is to help Brother Xinghe after receiving so much kindness from Brother Xinghe!

Hua Xichen walked joyfully to the Well of Prophecy, at which moment the power of the Great Prophecy Art transformed into threads and began to spread towards the Well of Prophecy.

When the barrier of the Great Prophecy Art touched the starlight of the Well of Prophecy, this time the Well of Prophecy did not block the power of the Great Prophecy Art, but allowed the power of the Great Prophecy Art to penetrate into the mouth of the Well of Prophecy, and then took out the well water that shimmered with starlight from the Well of Prophecy!

"Brother Xinghe! I succeeded!" Hua Xichen exclaimed with ecstasy.

Chu Xinghe... remained calm...

Hey... Little Hua... are you so eager to stab me? Can't you even give me a little time to process this?

Watching Hua Xichen's Great Prophecy Art continuously draw water from the Well of Prophecy, Chu Xinghe burst into tears... This time, it's truly all over...

But now, faced with Lucky General Hua's impulsive act of stabbing without warning, Chu Xinghe couldn't stop him. He could only watch as Hua Xichen desperately used the Qiankun Ring to collect water from the Well of Prophecy for him.

Just as Chu Xinghe was about to approach Hua Xichen to persuade him that it was time to stop, the Well Spirits Great Elder spoke up, "Chu Xinghe... do not get too close to the Well of Prophecy. Now, only those with Great Prophecy Art can approach the Well of Well of Prophecy. If you do not have Great Prophecy Art, getting close to the Well of Prophecy of Well of Prophecy will trigger its mysterious power, and the Well of Prophecy will close, and you will never have the chance to obtain the well water again!"

Chu Xinghe: "!!"

What the heck? Anyone without Great Prophecy Art can close the Well of Prophecy of Well of Prophecy just by getting close to it, making it impossible to collect water?

Is there really such a good thing?

Upon hearing this, Chu Xinghe was overjoyed and completely ignored Well Spirits Great Elder's words, rushing towards the Well of Prophecy!

Good heavens! If you hadn't stopped him today, wouldn't Hua Xichen have filled every single one of his Qiankun Rings?

So, if someone like me, who doesn't possess Great Prophecy Art, gets close right now, the Well of Prophecy will close, right...?

What are we waiting for! Close the Well of Prophecy!

Chu Xinghe a few steps to the Well of Prophecy of Well of Prophecy, and the moment he touched it, just as the Well Spirits Great Elder had said, the power of the Great Prophecy on Hua Xichen, who was collecting water with the Great Prophecy Art, seemed to be severed by something.

The Well of Prophecy instantly stopped Hua Xichen from drawing water!

The water in the Well of Prophecy has begun to solidify and become impossible to draw out!

Seeing this, Hua Xichen was dumbfounded... What's going on? I'm still waiting for Brother Xinghe from the Blood Gang, why is the Well of Prophecy suddenly not allowing me to draw water?

Chu Xinghe was overjoyed!

Perfect! Absolutely perfect... This time, I shut down the Well of Prophecy with my own skill!

You think you can use the water from the Well of Prophecy to help me mitigate my losses? No way!

Just as Chu Xinghe was overjoyed, thousands of stars suddenly shot up from the Well of Prophecy. In an instant, the shooting stars converged into a ribbon of starlight. As the ribbon fluttered, countless stars seemed to go mad and converged towards Chu Xinghe's direction!
