79: Chapter 80: Black Domain City, Netherworld Path!
Half a month later, at the Black Domain Suburb to the north of Dongli Country.
Clad in a black robe with a cloak shrouding most of her face, Luo Qingtong revealed only an evil-looking Rashamon mask, appearing on the outskirts of this dark city.
"This place, is it the Black Domain Suburb?"
The Black Domain is a very special existence on the Zhenyan Continent.
It exists within all the major nations, yet it stands independently from them.
In every country, whether it's an Upper-class Country, a Lower-class Country, or an Emperor-level Super Country like the Tianyu Empire, there exists a suburb of the Black Domain.
Within the Black Domain, you can do anything, buy anything you desire, assassinate any person you wish!
As long as it's a transaction, as long as you can pay the price, there's nothing the Black Domain dares not do!
This is a place of darkness, also known as the Dark Holy Land to the cultivators of Zhenyan Continent.
The Four Great Holy Dynasties are powerless against it.
No one knows the person behind the Black Domain, only that his title is Netherworld, self-proclaimed as the Netherworld Venerable.
In the Black Domain, he is the sole ruler and law!
To have the major Holy Dynasties at a loss, allowing such an independent city that does not heed commands to exist within their territories, the strength of the Netherworld Venerable must be earth-shatteringly immense.
And now, Luo Qingtong is entering this Black Domain Suburb located within Dongli Country, to search for the Detoxification Herbs she needs.
After returning from Jiuyu Mountain with nothing to show for it, she knew that to find all the Detoxification Herbs she needed, she had only the Black Domain – a place fearless of the Holy Dynasties' strength, with tendrils spread across the entire continent – as a possibility!
But the Black Domain is not so easy to enter.
Whoosh!
Luo Qingtong's figure vaulted forward, her robe sleeves billowing, like an agile goshawk, swooping towards the vast Main City that loomed within the shadows ahead.
The rustling sound of water!
Outside the Black Domain Suburb, a gargantuan moat appeared in Luo Qingtong's view.
This moat was filled with chilling white bones, with some cultivators' bodies not yet fully corroded, drifting along with the ripples of the moat.
Countless weapons and treasures were submerged within, but no one dared to venture and fish them out.
This moat is also known as the Netherworld Path!
If one falls into it, even Martial King Level powerhouses would be corroded in a second and turned into one of the white bones!
It is said that there are countless Black Domain Suburbs, and the power of the moat outside of each suburb is closely related to the country where it is located.
The power of the moat on the outskirts of this Black Domain Suburb in Dongli Country can only corrode Martial Kings.
However, in Emperor-level Super Countries or even Holy Dynasties, the power of the moat rises even further!
It is rumored that the moats surrounding the Black Domain Main City could even doom Saint Realm strong ones who fall into them!
This attests to the formidable strength of the Black Domain!
To enter the Black Domain, one must have the strength to cross the Netherworld Path.
At this moment, above the Netherworld Path, there were only bare chains.
There was nothing on the chains for one to leverage or rely on, and as the wind blew, the chains swung wildly, clanging constantly.
When Luo Qingtong reached the bank, she heard a series of screams.
Some people were unable to maintain their balance and fell into the Netherworld Path, instantly engulfed by the corrosive river water!
To get through this Netherworld Path, it requires strength, luck, and keen vision!
A flash of blood in Luo Qingtong's eyes, with just a glance over the Netherworld Path, she prepared to vault forward.
Just then, suddenly, a buzzing sound came from above the sky.
