Alm and Bruno asked about the contents of the golden box they had both absorbed. They explained that there was indeed a kind of law alongside the Qi, and that, back then, it immediately fused into their core.
After this process, their core changed shape, but they couldn't precisely describe how. It was clear that this was a step toward everything being merged with their souls later on.
'So, it's a cycle with multiple stages to create a true Divine Inquisitor, and eventually, an immortal cultivator,' Alm reflected. 'First, the souls reincarnate in the empires, gradually learning to master the primitive bloodline and Anima cultivation. Absorbing one of the treasures from the golden box means they passed the test.'
