It was only after they were both fully prepared that they stepped into the periphery of the Corroded Zone.
The instant they crossed the invisible boundary separating the outside world from the Corroded Zone, a bone-chilling cold swept over them and immediately infiltrated their bodies. It was not an ordinary cold. It carried a strange, oppressive quality that seemed capable of seeping through their skin and reaching directly into their bones.

The air was thick with a dense corrosive substance that lingered everywhere, almost like an invisible mist. Even breathing normally in this place caused a faint discomfort in their lungs. For cultivators with weaker bodies or inadequate defenses, remaining here for too long would gradually corrode their flesh and internal organs.
The moment they entered, Grey and Iria both felt as if they had stepped into a completely different world.
