Chapter 1698: Black Sand
The Prima Deities of the underworld excelled at hiding, expertly covering all traces of their identities and actions. Although Archdeities from Divine Calamity Heaven or Divine Sea Heaven possessed more than sufficient power to track them down if they desired, neither faction bothered.
There were numerous practical reasons behind this choice, but the most important was political flexibility. The underworld Prima Deities were unique; they had no firm allegiance binding them permanently to any particular organization or continent.
If pressured too greatly, they could easily switch sides, becoming assets to the enemy overnight. Ultimately, it was far simpler—and safer—to leave them alone, at least for the time being.
Among the shadowy powers lurking beneath the Endlessdeath Continent’s surface, the most fearsome was known as Death Sand, a clandestine organization controlled by a mysterious figure named Black Sand.
Whether Black Sand was male or female, human or something else entirely, remained unknown, but one truth was universally acknowledged: Black Sand possessed terrifying power.
Fewer than ten thousand years ago, a Lord-Tier Organization called Golden Horn had foolishly declared war against Death Sand. Without warning, their ruler perished overnight, and the entire organization was swiftly buried beneath an endless ocean of sand. Since that brutal example, none had dared provoke Death Sand again—until today.
In a distant, desolate region of the Endlessdeath Continent stretched an enormous desert composed entirely of glittering golden sand. Its vastness defied imagination; even the eyes of Prima Deities failed to glimpse its boundaries once inside.
This barren place was utterly devoid of life—no Divine Beasts roamed here, and even Divine Cultivators stayed far away, deterred by chilling rumors that none who entered ever returned alive. Yet today, that tranquility would shatter.
“ZNNNNNNNNNNNN!”
