The phantom of Xuanwu chuckled and said, "Friend, do not be surprised. That is a unique form of communication among the four divine beasts, which outsiders cannot learn. Since the Azure Dragon and the others have chosen you, it proves you are someone to be trusted. I now have no regrets left."
Having said this, the phantom of Xuanwu cast one last deep look at the little Xuanwu before it could no longer maintain its form. After a brief struggle and transformation, it dissipated into the surrounding space.
The little Xuanwu, who was playing with the little Zhuque and the others, seemed to sense something and glanced toward the spot where the Xuanwu phantom had vanished. Seeing that it was completely empty, it turned its head and resumed interacting with the little Zhuque and the others. The first generation of the four divine beasts had thus passed away from the Primordial World forever.
