And here, in this place where all things perish, this burial ground for the corpses of Divine Beings, was also the place where all things began—the embryonic crucible for the birth of a New World.
Su Zhou saw the 'Fire of Origin'.
It was a mass with a radius of several thousand meters, pulsing and leaping as if it were alive. It was a 'heart' that drove the entire ninth level of the Maze, keeping the whole Sea of Magma in constant motion. The spherical mass resembled a sun, emitting a dazzling radiance that was impossible to look at directly, a core of intense flame releasing its light and heat into its surroundings.
That was the 'primal Fire Element,' destined to dominate the next Era and recreate the New World after the end of the Era of Earth.
Although the primal Fire Element appeared to be alive, it was in reality a mass of pure, blazing light. It did not resist contact from outsiders, nor did it possess the power to protect itself like other naturally-formed Divine Objects.
