Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
Azure Continent, Seaview Immortal City.
It had been five years since Chen Daoxuan went to the Devil Ape Mountain Range to break through to the Golden Core.
In these five years, the Seaview Immortal City had changed greatly.
Originally, the Seaview Immortal City was an unfinished immortal city. At the beginning of the construction of this immortal city, considering the future development, a large empty area was reserved.
Now, these empty areas had all become the industrial land of Guanhai Immortal City.
Sea Viewing Immortal City Chengdong District, Seventh Industrial Zone.
This was one of the magical equipment production bases of the Seaview Immortal City. In the industrial zone, large magical equipment factories stood here.
“Nie Zhong, are you off work?”
Nie Zhong, who was wearing a brand new blue factory uniform, had just walked out of the factory when a young man wearing the same blue factory uniform greeted him with a smile.
However, Nie Zhong’s expression turned stiff when he heard these words. He coughed and said,””You’re so rude. Call me Department Director Nie!”
Hearing this, the young man immediately walked forward and slapped Nie Zhong’s head. He shouted,”You little brat, I call you showing off!”
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t move. My new clothes!”
Nie Zhong dusted off his new uniform, his face full of pride.
Nie Zhong and the young man beside him were the first batch of students who entered the Chen family to open a technical school five years ago.
Nie Zhong entered the school run by the Chen family. With his steadfast and studious personality, he successfully graduated from the technical school in less than a year.
After that, he was assigned to this magic tool factory and worked there for more than four years.
In the past four years, Nie Zhong had not only relied on the interest-free loan from Changping Industrial and Commercial Bank to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill.
He also obtained a chance to break through to the foundation establishment stage in the main spirit eye of the spirit vein of the Vast Ocean Immortal City through more than four years of work insurance.
In the past, rogue cultivators like Nie Zhong, who had no background or resources, would only have a chance to build their foundation if they risked their lives on the battlefield in the Yun Nation.
And now, there were countless itinerant cultivators like Nie Zhong in Guang ‘an Prefecture. They did not need to risk their lives on the battlefield in the Yun Nation to obtain a good future.
Nie Zhong and the others were a typical example.
From a wandering cultivator with nothing, he successfully built his foundation.
Now that Nie Zhong had successfully built his foundation, he had made a new breakthrough in his weapon refining skills. He could already refine a Second Level Lower Grade magic weapon with the help of the Harmonious Spirit Stove.
In this way, Nie Zhong’s income would not only soar, but his status in the factory would also be further improved.
In the seventh industrial zone in the east of the city, the fifth factory of the Sea-viewing Artifact manufacturing factory had built a new workshop. Nie Zhong was promoted to be the person in charge of the workshop, which was also the workshop director.
From then on, Nie Zhong could be considered to have an official position.
If it had been during the time when he had just entered the factory, a mere workshop director who was in charge of mortals and itinerant cultivators would not have been taken seriously by a cultivator like Nie.
However, as Nie Zhong spent more and more time in the factory, he witnessed the rapid development of the factory and the significant increase in the income of the secret practitioners in the factory.
Nie Zhong, the workshop director, had a lot of gold in him.
Along the way, when others saw Nie Zhong’s brand new uniform, their eyes were filled with envy.
“Old Nie, don’t show off. Let me tell you, I’ve already applied to be transferred to the Ninth Industrial Zone!”
As expected, when Nie Zhong heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears and hurriedly said,”Brother Situ, quickly tell me what happened.
How did you end up in the Ninth Industrial Zone? Wasn’t that the industrial zone that only the direct descendants of the Chen family could enter?”
Even though Chen family wanted to turn the city into an industrial immortal city, the degree of confidentiality was different.
For example, the production of level one and level two magic tools, which required relatively low technology, was carried out in the eight industrial zones in the east of the city.
As for those with higher technical requirements, such as the Chen family’s mysterious spiritual armor manufacturing and automatic spiritual talisman manufacturing, they were placed in the ninth industrial zone, which had the highest level of confidentiality.
Although there was only one industrial zone in the ninth industrial zone, its actual area was much larger than the three industrial zones in the east of the city combined.
The Ninth Industrial Zone was located in the outer ring of the north of the city. In the past, only the direct descendants of the Chen family and their vassal families could apply to join this industrial zone.
Furthermore, the application conditions were extremely strict. Not only did one have to go through multiple identity checks, but one also had to swear a Great Dao oath before entering.
It could be said that the Ninth Industrial Zone was filled with the Chen family’s core assets.
Logically speaking, the Chen family would not allow an outsider to enter such a place.
Situ Jun saw the incredulous look on Nie Zhongpu’s face and chuckled.””! married into the Chen family!”
“You…”
Nie Zhong pointed at Situ Jun, his face twitching.” You’re such a shameless guy!”
“You can be jealous. My wife is not only beautiful, but also gentle and considerate.”
Situ Jun pursed his lips.” There are countless itinerant cultivators who want to marry into the Chen family. You people are just jealous!”
Nie Zhong looked at the smug Situ Jun and expressed that he did not want to talk to him.
“Sigh, Nie Zhong, don’t go. We haven’t finished chatting!”
“Don’t bother me!”
“Sigh, at the end of the day, it’s still jealousy.”
“Get lost!”
Chengxi District, this was the Laocheng District of the Seaview Immortal City. There were all kinds of shops, inns, banks, and other buildings in the Chengxi District.
In an independent courtyard of a high-class inn.
A few cultivators of the Ji Family were staying here. The one in the lead was actually a Golden Core elder of the Ji Family.
“Yan Yuan, what did that junior from the Chen family say?”
