Although Black Profound Island was an overseas island, it was situated on a crucial shipping route and boasted a prosperous trade. As a result, a city of considerable scale, named Black Stone City, had been built upon the main island.
The city walls were constructed from the island's unique black Profound Stone.
The Demon Sect's stronghold wasn't located in the bustling port district, with its motley crowd, but was hidden away in a relatively quiet area in the city's southwest corner.
The place had once been a moderately popular folk temple dedicated to some long-forgotten Sea God. It was later abandoned for some reason, and the worship ceased.
The stronghold was set up within the meditation chambers in the backyard of this abandoned temple.
The meditation chambers had been renovated, giving them a refined and elegant air.
A few dim, yellow oil lamps flickered in the corners. Several figures sat around a large square table.
