As the surface of the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone began to crack, the Chaos Bead spun faster and faster.
Transcending time and space, as though surpassing fate and the Great Dao itself, time was being accelerated without limit.
The surrounding void continuously expanded amid destruction and rebirth. No one knew how long had passed.
Perhaps it was an instant, or perhaps an eternal epoch vanishing with a flick of the fingers.
Cracking sounds rang out, and streak after streak of fissures covered the surface of the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone's outer layer.
At last, with a thunderous explosion, the dust settled, the stone layer shattered, and heaven and earth trembled.
A pillar of light shot straight into the clouds, blasting through the entire cloud cover, Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves as it surged into the firmament.
After the stone layer broke apart, the Heaven and Earth Divine Stone was not actually very large, only about a meter in diameter.
Dazzling golden light radiated from all around it. Within that golden radiance, black and white light intertwined and merged together.
Within the Divine Continent, Xu Zimo had previously thrown the Void Spirit Monkey into this world, where it was later picked up by the natives.
When he retrieved the Void Spirit Monkey, he gave several natives a book.
The book recorded in great detail the use of writing, as well as knowledge about livestock breeding and sowing crops.
The humans of this world no longer wandered about aimlessly just to survive.
They now had fixed dwellings and had begun to make use of fire and livestock breeding to provide food and warmth for themselves.
Though it was still difficult, they had already begun to see results. So long as they could ultimately survive, that was enough.
