Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Most of the audience members including Alex were shocked at this information. This was such an out of nowhere piece of information that it had caught them truly off guard.

The host was smiling wide seeing the look of disbelief on the faces of the audience. Not only them, but it also seemed that even some of the players, including the old man named Sean, were completely unaware of this information.

”The world of Eternal Cultivation is truly vast, and it also contains a lot of different places not available in the real world. For example, in the northern continent, there are flowing frozen rivers called glaciers. In the eastern continent, there are mountain peaks that spew out fiery liquid from the top. The west has an unending forest.”

”There are beaches, which are small strips of land on the edge of the world that meets the water. There are giant cliffs with deep ravines in between called canyons. There are so many different things to explore, and most of us just stay in the cities. Such a shame,” the host said while shaking his head.

Alex thought so too. ’There is so much more world that I have yet to see, and I am just staying in one city. I should leave to explore other places.’ A small fire of excitement began to light up deep inside him, bringing the fun back into the game.

”Now, returning back to the players while still staying on the topic of continents. How many of you are from the eastern continents?” the host asked the guests.

5 people raised their hands, including Hannah and Emily’s friend.

”How many of you are from the Northern continent?” he then asked.

4 hands raised this time including the old man Sean.

”The Southern continent?” the host asked.

All of the remaining 4 hands were raised at this point, including Aaron.

”And we can see that there are none of you from the Western Continent. It’s weird, isn’t it? We have seen the statistics report and surprisingly, only 12% of all players are in the Western Continent.”

”And furthermore, they are always slow on the rise. The resources there are lower than the ones in the other continent. Do any of you have an idea why that might be?” the host asked.

’Didn’t sister say that I was from the Western Continent? Is it really that bad?’ he wondered.

The guests there made some guesses as to why that might have been. Some said they might have been slow to develop. Some said, the developers just made it that way. However, none of the guests could make any credible guesses, so the host decided to change the topic.

”Since we do not know about it that much, let us move to another topic. That topic being…” the host immediately turned around to point at the center of the map which was nothing but water.

Suddenly, a green land appeared in the middle of the map. ”… The Fifth Continent,” the host spoke.

Everyone was suddenly confused. Murmurs started appearing among the crowd as they tried to figure out how there could even be a fifth Continent. There were quite a few in the crowd that were quite learned regarding the geography of Eternal Cultivation.

Even though they didn’t know the exact area of the continents or their relative location. They still knew that there were 4 different continents. Yet, the host was speaking about the existence of the fifth one that they had never heard of.

The host smiled when he saw the different reactions on the faces of most of the guests and all of the audience.

”You heard it here first. We are revealing to you the yet unrevealed fifth continent of the Eternal Cultivation. This is a very different continent from most of the other continents. Let us ask the three people who provided us with this information,” said the Host.

”Ms. Hannah, Mr. Aaron, and Mr. Shane, could you tell us how you came to learn about the existence of this continent and why no one else knows of it?” he asked.

The man named Shane first spoke, ”I actually do not know much about the Fifth continent aside from the fact that it exists. I came to learn about it on an accident when my master mentioned that we would have to take a detour through the Eastern Continent if we ever wanted to go the Southern Continent from the Northern continent. All because of the weirdness of the fifth continent.”

Aaron followed up, ”The fifth continent is actually way more commonly known in the Southern continent. Well, at least on the higher level it is. There are records of land being visible from the southern continent itself when the weather conditions are perfect. Although, because of how hard it is to stay around at the northern part of the Southern Continent, I myself have never personally seen this fifth Continent appearing.”

”I see,” the host said. He then turned to Hannah and asked, ”What about you Ms. Hannah? How do you know about the Fifth Continent?”

”My Hu— Friend from inside the game told me about it. He has a rather high rank among the people in the Eastern continent and has access to a lot of important information. He let me know about, rather cautioned me against ever going towards the Fifth Continent cause of the dangers there.”

”Danger?” the host was curious. ”Any idea what sort of dangers?” he asked.

”Apparently, a very high-level battle took place in the fifth continent a few generations ago, and the land was left torn apart from the battle. Ever since then, the final continent has remained unapproachable by anyone due to the turbulent Qi in it.”

”However, I believe that is what the developers are telling us right now,” Hannah said.

”Hmm… what do you mean Ms. Hannah?” the host asked.

Hannah replied, ”I believe that this Fifth Continent is going to be the next expansion of the game and is going to open up soon in the near future.”
