The Tide of Death spread across the Ten Directions Island Domain, indeed bringing great effects to the environment of the entire domain.
However...
The holy war erupting within and beyond the Ten Directions Island Domain had already turned the entire domain—except for the Tianyuan City Defense Circle—into a chaotic mess.
In the face of life and death, the environment was not a concern.
Defending the territory was the utmost priority.
The descent of the True King Realm, although somewhat unexpected, was naturally anticipated by Lord Shepherd, envisioning scenarios where a super-spec enemy would arrive.
As the main battlefield is most likely in the domain, it's natural to fully utilize the geographical advantage.
The previously appeared 'springs,' spewing pillars of black tide, were one part of it.
The 'Gates of the Netherworld,' now appearing across the domain, were another.
Not only the Gates of the Netherworld.
