Clear water is shallow, green water is deep, black water is abyssal.
When Wang Yuan and Huang Wu turned their heads to look toward the direction where the sun was rising in the east, they discovered that the raging sea before them was as black as ink, unfathomably deep, perhaps thousands of fathoms.
It seemed that the term "bottomless abyss" was no longer an exaggeration here, but a mere description of the fact.
Nestled atop this expanse of ocean was a profound trench that stretched for thousands of miles in length and hundreds of miles in width, in a stark and sudden divide.
The waters of rivers and seas ceaselessly surged forth, pouring into the trench with unstoppable force, yet it seemed as if they could never fill it.
Even as the sun gradually rose in the sky, dispersing the dark clouds, the area remained overwhelmed by huge waves, shrouded in turbidity.
Even more so, as time passed, the waves grew higher and higher.
