Chapter 1148 - Slaves
A heavy boot slammed into Liu Wuxie's side, jolting him awake with searing pain. When he opened his eyes, a vicious-looking man loomed over him, gripping a long whip.
He shot upright, blinking in confusion.
"Where am I?" he muttered.
He found himself surrounded by endless mines. He tried to release his divine sense, but it barely extended a thousand meters. He sensed something disturbingly unnatural, especially the oppressive weight pressing down on him.
No technique had caused it; it was like the sheer density of the laws was pressing down on him like an invisible mountain.
His breath turned ragged as his thoughts raced.
"I'm talking to you! Get up and work! Or don't blame me for what happens next!" the burly man barked, cracking his whip through the air.
"YOU DARE?!" Liu Wuxie roared, reaching for the whip, but he missed.
The man lashed the whip squarely at him, tearing flesh and sending pain surging through Liu Wuxie. It wasn't an illusion; everything here was real.
"The Astral Domain... I've entered the Astral Domain!" He laughed through the pain.
Only the Astral Domain could possess such oppressive laws. His cultivation remained intact, and the surrounding laws were several magnitudes higher than those of the True Martial Continent.
He scanned himself with divine sense and froze.
