Chapter 255: Becoming Immortal
After spending more than half an hour at the Sacrifice Heaven Ceremony Square, under the announcement of Ma Haoran of the Qin Tian Supervision, the grand sacrifice assembly came to an end.
Following their departure, Wang Zijia and his party, led by Ma Haoran, proceeded to the east suburb of Tianhong City which was across Tianhong Mountain.
From an ordinary person’s perspective, this was a vast royal garden, covering nearly half the area of Tianhong City.
Ordinary people were not allowed to enter or leave. Even members of the royal family had limited access. Occasionally, some oddly dressed people like the Old Taoist, the Elegant Swordsman, or the Old Beggar could be seen coming in and out.
However, from a cultivator’s perspective, beyond a merely a beginner disciple level illusion array, there was a relatively large market square.
Even if the Tianhong Practice World was in decline, it was still considered a second-class dynasty. As the biggest market amongst the neighboring dynasties, it was not bad. Well, at least it was not bad for them.
From Wang Zijia’s perspective, this place was quite remote and lagged far behind Wanyu Immortal City.
Luckily, the arrival of Wang Zijia and his fellows had been anticipated and cultivators from neighboring areas had gathered here early, making the place rather crowded.
Lead by Ma Haoran, Wang Zijia was guided to a special accommodation area in the market. He was arranged to stay in the best courtyard. As the market square was mostly built with the support of the Wanyu Sect, most businesses there have been owned by the sect.
This was a remote place that only saw a change in management once every ten years. As such, Wang Zijia also had the additional task of checking the books.
This was one of the reasons why Ma Haoran was so enthusiastic towards him. The average disciple wouldn’t dare to audit the books and whatever Ma Haoran said was considered good enough. But with the arrival of Wang Zijia, there was more wiggle room for going through the motions or a thorough audit.
