May.
Zhenlong Divine Palace.
In the depths of the Jade Sea, tens of thousands of meters beneath the waves on the ocean floor.
Here, in the abyssal darkness of the seabed.
A massive, round archway stood silently in the heart of the darkness, emitting a soft, white fluorescence that illuminated the surrounding area for several miles.
The archway had a peculiar design. Its upper half was a giant pearlescent scallop shell, while the lower half was a doorframe formed from countless dark red corals.
The iridescent nacre of the shell's interior reflected fine points of light in the white glow.
The frame of dark red coral, however, presented a perfect contrast—seemingly soft, yet in reality, both venomous and hard.
This enormous archway was a kilometer high and seven to eight hundred meters wide. Behind it connected a vast, colossal shadow.
