## History

At the beginning of the world, a group of chaotic beings ruled the nine zones. They fought with each other, and some died while others left the nine zones. In the past, the innate lifeforms of the nine zones had all been ruled by these rulers, and many of them had been devoured or refined into treasures.

Later on, the four divine beasts rose to power and fought against the four rulers of the four directions. They occupied territories in the East, West, North and South respectively and protected some of the innate lifeforms. After that, the innate lifeforms, and the rising experts of the nine zones, fought against the rulers.

The nine zones is the first world born from chaos.
