Chapter 1077: Chapter 815: Frontier Cave World! [Seeking Monthly Pass, Seeking Subscription]_2

Wang Zijia initially nodded slightly in response.

But later on...

Just like when he first met Qin Xianyu, he ignored everyone’s greetings and flew towards the core area, guided by the identity token, while observing everything around him.

It’s not that he was arrogant, but rather... his popularity was a bit too great!

Once he responded, some disciples would get excited, which was one thing, but then there were disciples who tried to approach him...

This was, after all, the border fortress of a battlefield, so it was inappropriate to freely scold or even punish those disciples defending Shen Hong with their lives, wasn’t it?

It must be said that the lofty attitude of the powerful had its reasons!

In any case, the celebrity effect—or rather, the great celebrity effect—was complex to say the least!

...

Wang Zijia took a sightseeing flight, witnessing what an Xianxia version of a border fortress Cave World looked like.

As he approached the heart of the fortress, the buildings around him began to change, adopting the standard White Jade style, filled with ancient charm between carved balustrades and marble constructions.

Here, it was clear that this Immortal Ship was defended by Taiching Palace.

Because most of the disciples going about their business here, whether they were the running errands Perfected disciples or the Infant God and Primordial Spirit disciples doing work, were from Taiching Palace.

Only occasionally could he see people from other Sects, and most of them were disciples from forces affiliated with Taiching Palace; only a small portion were disciples from other Taoist Sects managing affairs.

Guided by his identity card, Wang Zijia arrived at the heart of the building complex, the main administrative location of this border fortress: the Task Pavilion.

Before he could even enter, the disciple who had received the news had already come out to meet him.

It was an Earth Immortal-level disciple, and to Wang Zijia’s surprise, the disciple was from their Ancient Department.

"Disciple Ying Shishou from the Ancient Department greets Senior Uncle Chi Yang!" said the disciple, bowing respectfully to Wang Zijia.

The passersby around them, be they Celestial Immortals, Earth Immortals, or God Monarchs, also respectfully bowed, with many looking at him with eyes as if they were witnessing a legend.

After all these years, Wang Zijia had become accustomed to such gazes.

Ignoring the sneak peeks from the crowd, he asked the disciple, "Is this where we hand over tasks?"

"Yes, Senior Uncle, please follow me," the disciple responded with another respectful bow, then turned to lead the way.

With an indifferent expression, Wang Zijia followed the disciple into the White Jade Great Hall, under the gaze of the crowd.

"Is this the current prodigy of Taiching Palace, the legendary Nine Tribulations Chi Yang?"

"Finally, a true sight to see, this is said to be the being most likely to ascend to the Saint Third Realm in this era!"

"Yeah, hasn’t it been nearly a hundred thousand years since Shen Hong last had a golden immortal emerge?"

"I heard he’s in his early thirties, why isn’t he on the list of dazzling talents under a hundred years old? Didn’t Tianji Pavilion say it was impossible to miss anyone?"

"Are you joking?"

"Brother, are you serious?"

"To associate a Profound Immortal with those under a hundred years old, striving towards becoming Infant Gods and God Monarchs?"

"You really are talented!"

"Grand talent!"

"Why don’t you ask why Chi Yang Immortal Venerate doesn’t participate in the Taoist sword fighting competition? At thirty, he should qualify for any level of sword fighting competition!"

"Ha ha... A Profound Immortal attending a Perfected Realm sword fighting competition? Sounds interesting! Punching out the little friends with one fist?"

"You guys really are..."

"This is a reincarnated being, right? From the Ancient Imperial Clan, a lord of the Dao Court. This old antique is older than anyone, where’s the youth in that, he can’t even be considered a newly risen power of the last hundred thousand years!"

"Brother Dao, don’t take it so seriously."

"..."

After Wang Zijia left, the entire core square erupted into a buzz, discussing topics that seemed quite disjointed.

It probably had something to do with the environment of the battlefield border.

...

Led by the disciple, Wang Zijia entered an empty Great Hall, which was also filled with runes and various light screens flashing.

This disciple seemed to be the person in charge here.

Fortunately for him, he was much better off than the one who had previously issued Wang Zijia’s task, with many God Monarch disciples assisting him.

It wasn’t because there was a shortage of personnel; the Sect wouldn’t lack God Monarchs if they were really needed.

Mainly, due to the need for secrecy, most disciples allowed here were ostensibly qualified, and some were even born and raised here.

Thus, he had many disciples to help him here.

And outside, there was a recent shortage of personnel, which was why it had been so hard.

Ying Shishou arrived in one of the halls and brought up a light screen, respectfully addressing Wang Zijia, "Senior Uncle, this needs to be filled out by you."

Task: Mysterious Domain Cleanup

Range: Central Outer Boundaries

Level: Celestial Immortal

Difficulty: Routine

Merit: 80

Description: Due to the outbreak of Sinners’ Pollution, a task in the Mysterious Domain for ordinary demons that have turned into Sinful Disasters was discovered by the Intelligence Department within the Central Outer Boundaries.

"Is this... the task I took earlier?" Wang Zijia said with a slight frown.

Ying Shishou nodded and explained, "Because of an unexpected incident in the Intelligence Department, there was a serious error in the task rating, which needs to be revised, and for that we need you, Senior Uncle."

Assuming that Wang Zijia was unfamiliar with the battlefield as a monk from the Ancient Department, Ying Shishou paused before adding, "This is somewhat related to the reward issue."

Upon hearing the implied message in Ying Shishou’s words, Wang Zijia asked, "Can I fill it out any way I want?"

Ying Shishou’s expression stiffened, and then he laughed nervously, "Senior Uncle, please don’t joke with your disciple. These matters are certainly monitored, and then there are so many disciples returning as well."
