"Primordial Nexus?" Gumiho asked, tilting her head.
"It is the place where the energy of the heavens combines with the World Energy," Maximilian explained, wiping the blood from his cheeks with his sleeves. "Basically, the Primordial Nexus is the connection between the world and the heavens. Only planets with a Primordial Nexus possess Soulforce, allowing their inhabitants to cultivate."
He slowly opened his eyes, which could only see blurry figures for now, and continued, "Normally, the Primordial Nexus remains hidden within the core of the world to keep it safe. Because if it's damaged, the planet will lose its connection to the heavens. It appears on the surface for one reason only!"
Gumiho held her breath in anticipation, her fluffy ears rising.
"To cultivate its Supreme Existence."
"Huh?" Gumiho tilted her head, seeming unconvinced. "But the Lingtian Mountains have been here for several hundred years."
