The scene shifted, and Tian Chen arrived in another world.
This world stretched out without end, yet it was filled with a sinister, eerie, oppressive atmosphere, like a world of death shrouded in darkness.
The earth was grayish black, its surface covered in cracks and pits, as though some mighty force had torn it apart. There was neither sky nor sunlight here; a gray haze enveloped the entire space.
The light was extremely dim, like a faint glow seeping up from underground, giving the place a cold, damp feel. Looking into the distance, he could even make out ranks of warriors wearing skull masks, standing in orderly formation.
After a faint ripple, Tian Chen landed steadily on the grayish-black earth of the Undead Demiplane.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and surveyed his surroundings, a flicker of surprise crossing his gaze.
"Is this the Undead Demiplane? It's just as the original novel described."
Suddenly, a cold wind blew from behind him. Tian Chen shivered slightly and quickly turned around, only to find Electrolux standing behind him.
Electrolux's figure looked particularly imposing amid the mist. He wore a black-and-gold robe embroidered with intricate runes that gave off a faint, ghostly glow.
Upon seeing him, Tian Chen immediately dropped to one knee and said respectfully, "Teacher!"
Electrolux smiled and nodded, raising a hand slightly to signal for Tian Chen to rise.
"Xiao Chen, this is the Undead Demiplane, a relatively independent space. Here, you can safely undergo Soul Ring Condensation without worrying about interference from the outside world."
Tian Chen nodded, his eyes filled with respect for Electrolux.
"Xiao Chen, this is my plane. I'll explain the reasons to you later. For now, you can cultivate here in peace until you finish Soul Ring Condensation." There was a reassuring note in Electrolux's voice.
