The Immortal Dynasty could barely sustain the basic salaries of its military and officials, yet the Immortal Sect citizens did not care too much.
What truly enraged the Immortal Sect citizens, making it utterly unacceptable, was that their share of tax revenues had continuously declined—from the generous welfare two million years ago to barely maintaining cultivation in contemporary times, leading to difficult lives where many citizens had to work for survival.
Moreover, they couldn't always find suitable employment, and unemployment was common among citizens.
In this era of financial exhaustion and war, the welfare for Immortal Sect citizens has been reduced to nothing but the bare essentials of food and clothing; cultivation resources could only be obtained through competition.
Would such a thing have been possible two million or even one million years ago?
