According to the deductions from some great teachers who were proficient in archaeology, spirit qi already existed in the Middle-Earth Nine Provinces since ancient times. But even hundreds of millions of years later, humans were still confused and ignorant toward spirit qi. Their knowledge was severely lacking.
At that time, there weren't any completed cultivation systems. Cultivators could only grope their way blindly forward, taking things step by step.
Time simply flowed by like that until a group of people accidentally discovered a tribal ruin that had been abandoned for an unknown amount of years when they entered the Dragonsparrow Mountains to temper themselves.
When that group of people was exploring and digging for treasures, they entered a construct that was considered relatively perfect. In the end, they appeared on a brand new and mysterious continent.
That construct was none other than a teleportation gate.
