The Abyss was shrouded in silence.
Five White Bone Pagodas stood towering over the ocean of corpses, with not a single figure daring to approach, a sight that was eerily strange.
Atop the pagoda sat what appeared to be a standard Daoist temple, its plaque inscribed with the characters "Doulu," yet the doors and windows were tightly sealed, the interior shrouded in mystery.
Since the Golden Cauldron Sect's rules were enacted, rather than inciting chaos among the artifact refiners, an unspoken deathly silence seemed to have fallen.
The Sect was simply too bizarre.
Under normal circumstances, the mountain gates of various inheritances should have first ventured into Zone 9, but instead, the Mother Furnace had suddenly transported them to the Abyss without the slightest warning.
Even Core Formation artifact refiners who tried to contact the Nascent Soul Great Powers received no response.
