Fang Yuan paid two hundred primeval stones, and entered the inner city with Bai Ning Bing.
Inner city, although built in the mountain, had wide walking paths that could accommodate ten horse carts travelling in a line.
Once they entered, the crowds became much smaller, less than half of the outer city.
But Gu Masters became littered everywhere, rank ones were all over the place, rank two mixed in among them, and occasionally one or two rank threes.
There were few to no mortals, after all, a hundred primeval stones were needed to enter. Most Gu Master had servants to attend to them, but did not want to waste their money like this.
The illumination of the inner city was through a type of charcoal.
The charcoal stone could burn for a long time, and did not produce smoke. Every hundred steps, Fang and Bai would see a hole dug in the walls, as a bunch of charcoal stones burnt within.
