Chapter 1642 The Connection Between Two Worlds

"Shameless? I am just trying to ensure my son's safety. That's all. I have no interest in you or your world." The Primal Monarch shrugged.

"Hah! Do you think I am the type to go back on my words? I am nowhere as shameless as you, Primal Monarch!"

"Anyway, you had plenty of chances to explain to him before, so why didn't you do so?" "Hmm… good question…"

The Primal Monarch began pondering with a serious face.

A few moments later, he had a look of realization and said, "I remember now! I forgot to tell him!" "Are you serious…?" The Primordial Phoenix frowned.

He shrugged, "My mind was occupied with other things back then, and teaching him about our world wasn't a priority, so I never gave it any thought." "Unbelievable…" Yuan muttered.

"Anyway, let me make it up by explaining our world to you now." The Primal Monarch looked at Yuan and went on to explain the connection between the Primal Expanse and the Nine Heavens.

"As you already know by now, the 'beasts' of your world are originally from the Primal Expanse. Of course, not all of them came from the Primal Expanse, but a good portion of them are."

"Now the question is, how does that work? How did they enter your world?"

"But before I answer that question, I have one for you. What happens when a human dies in your world?" The Primal Monarch faced Yuan with a profound smile.

"Well, as long as their soul isn't destroyed, they will eventually be reincarnated. Without the memories of their past lives, obviously."

The Primal Monarch nodded and continued asking, "Then what do you think happens to beasts after their death?"

Yuan pondered for a moment before responding, "Unlike humans, beasts don't reincarnate. Unless they have a unique bloodline, they simply return to nature—being part of the world as spiritual energy."

"You're partially correct, and you're missing a few pieces." The Primal Monarch spoke.

"Just like humans, beasts also reincarnate," he proceeded to explain. "However, their process is vastly different. When a beast dies, as long as its Chaotic Heart—or 'core'—isn't destroyed or consumed, it returns to nature as Chaotic Essence in the Primal Expanse and spiritual energy in your world. Over time, that energy will give birth to a new beast, whether by natural birth or through another beast."

"Unlike humans, who rely on their own bodily fluids to breed and procreate, beasts only need spiritual energy to do so. There are two ways they acquire this energy—by receiving it from another being or by absorbing the natural energy around them. Most prefer to use nature's energy, as it is both the most convenient and abundant source. However, those who wish to maintain or strengthen their bloodline's purity and strength typically acquire it from another individual."

Yuan absorbed the information with a serious expression, carefully processing every word. When the Primal Monarch mentioned the beasts' method of breeding through spiritual energy, Yuan's thoughts drifted to Lan Yingying and how she had requested his spiritual energy to conceive her future child.
