Chapter 676: Chapter 546: Death Pervades, City of Immortality
The opening of Mirror Sword Mountain occurred late at night, and it has been rumored that someone saw the Netherworld Gate of Mirror Sword Mountain open on a special moonlit night.
This rumor was not false; Mirror Sword Mountain was indeed the so-called Netherworld Gate, but it led to a sealed Immortal City instead of the world of the undead.
When the ninth realm began, Chu Mu’s eyes were covered and his Soul Sense was sealed. He was led along a long winding path before finally being brought into Mirror Sword Mountain, entering the hidden domain gate between the roots that stretched across the sky.
Chu Mu had no idea how the Netherworld Gate was opened; he only knew that his body passed through a very special space filled with a strong dark aura. It felt as though he had entered a land of death, giving the impression that there were no living beings, yet there were moving objects.
As soon as the blindfold was lifted, Chu Mu quickly discovered that he was standing beneath a dark and oppressive sky!
The cloud formations formed a murky Sky Curtain, making people feel a sense of depression as if their heart was being weighed down, unable to catch their breath.
Chu Mu was currently standing in a withered and decayed city suburb, seeing a dark and ancient city beneath the black cloud layer.
In fact, this could not be called a city; a more accurate description would be an underground palace because the city had no buildings or houses—only countless broken walls and pitch-black stone-paved roads.
There were many “walls” in the city, formed from black plant-like walls between the scattered broken columns, hanging vines, lichens, ferns, and other things. Occasionally, severely eroded wall fragments would be visible.
The walls were tall and complicated, almost covering the entire City of Immortality. Even plants covered the messy “streets,” and from time to time, unusual cold lights could be seen flickering between the “walls,” indicating that certain creatures were hiding.
