Following Jin Shui onward, they suddenly came upon—
A colossal city stretching across the gap between Chaos and the Netherworld crashed into view without warning.
It was billions of years older than Heavenly Prison City, so vast that it dwarfed any world to the point of suffocation.
Its walls were neither gold nor jade, neither stone nor iron. They had been forged layer upon layer from the Dao bones of countless fallen experts, shattered Spiritual Treasures, and congealed blood of gods and demons.
Every "brick" of the city wall wailed soundlessly, branded with ancient sins and unwillingness, radiating a savage aura that made even the saints of the heavens tremble.
The walls rose straight into chaotic nothingness, their peaks nowhere to be seen; they stretched across endless darkness, their ends beyond sight.
The city gate was the giant maw of a fierce beast capable of swallowing heaven and earth. Above it hung nine long-extinguished imperial stars, transformed into deathly lamps that illuminated the bleak expanse within the city, even more sinister than hell.
The air was filled with the scent of shattered laws and the wailing Great Dao. Even a casual gust of wind carried the terrifying might of the Primordial level.
Xuan Qing swept his gaze over the place and understood its rules with a single glance—
The figures passing beneath the city gate all possessed auras as deep as abyssal seas. Primordial Origin Golden Immortals were no more than gatekeepers, while Primordial Grand Luo Golden Immortals could be seen everywhere.
Some carried broken swords on their backs, some were wrapped in chains, and some hid savage gleams in their eyes. Every one of them had once been a figure who shook an entire world, yet now they could only scrape by, slaughter, and struggle within this colossal city.
