Chapter 404: Ancient Imperial Rumors

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Lan didn’t know if the information in the ‘Ancient Imperial Knowledge’ and ‘Ancient Imperial Rumors’ books were the same.

However, since they were given to him by his master, it should be more reliable.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have had become part of his master’s book collection.

He opened the book.

He began to flip through it.

He was rather serious when it came to such records.

The two words ‘Ancient Imperial’ had puzzled him for a long time.

The prefix of every Deity Position was Ancient Imperial. It could not help but let one’s imagination run wild.

After flipping through a few pages, Jiang Lan discovered that this book didn’t directly address the term ‘Ancient Imperial’.

Instead, it recorded some rumors.

The first was that some people from a long time ago discovered some underground buildings in the desert of the Western Wastelands.

There were some giants in the buildings.

The center of the giant was a platform with some engravings and words on it.

The only thing that could be understood in the words were the words ‘Ancient Imperial’.

Some people guessed that the buildings buried underground had something to do with the Ancient Imperial realm, while others guessed that they were part of it.

But no one was sure of the right answer.

No one knew where the ‘Ancient Imperial’ Palace originated from or what it represented.

Jiang Lan continued reading.

Although he did not understand, the more he knew about such things, the easier it was for him to get clues.

Or make a guess.

Furthermore, he could understand that the Deity Positions originated from the ‘Ancient Imperial’ realm.

The Deity Position he had was in the Ancient Imperial Lower Palace.

This was most definitely a place. However, no one knew what sort of place it was.

When he thought of this, Jiang Lan suddenly raised his head and looked towards the sky. He didn’t see anything in the endless sky.

However, he could sense the location of the Deity Position as well as the Ancient Imperial Palace.

He could go up if he wanted to.

However, his strength was insufficient to enter the gate of the Ancient Imperial Palace.

If he could enter, he might know more.

He shook his head and continued reading the ‘Ancient Imperial Knowledge’ book.

This time, what he saw was a village. It was rumored that every now and then, there would be people coming to take away a portion of the young men and women.

They were clad in golden armor and exuded extraordinary might.

The villagers could not resist them.

None of the people who had been taken had returned.

Every time they took someone away, they left a symbol.

At first, they didn’t know what symbols represented, but later on, they had someone ask about it. Only then did they learn that it represented the Ancient Imperial palace.

However, this village had long disappeared. This information was also collected from some damaged books.

Jiang Lan didn’t stop. He continued reading.

He discovered that there were many rumors regarding the Ancient Era.

The most exaggerated thing was that there was a day where everyone could see a dharmic projection appear in the sky, who seemed like a supreme elder.

He wore a golden robe and had a golden crown on his head, exuding an imposing aura.

After that, he stepped into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.

He seemed to be a sage in the Grand Desolate World.

This didn’t seem to have anything to do with the Ancient Era, but based on some rumors…

There seemed to be some symbols carved on the elder’s golden robe.

The symbol translated to: Ancient Imperial Thearch.

Jiang Lan was curious about the Ancient Imperial Thearch.

Were the descent of the Deity Positions related to this Thearch?

However, one thing was certain.

In the past, the Ancient Imperial Palace should have been a member of the Grand Desolate World as well, but later on, it wasn’t.

Or rather, in the past, the Ancient Imperial Palace would appear in the Grand Desolate World, but now, it no longer does.

The book did not mention anything about Deity Positions.

Moreover, it was just indirectly describing how extraordinary the Ancient Imperial Palace was.

All of this could indirectly prove how formidable the Ancient Imperial Palace was.

The Deity Positions directly used the Ancient Imperial Palace as the prefix.

That meant these rumors could be true.

However, he was still unable to find out the details.

The person who knew the most about this was probably Imperial Lord Xi He. However, Jiang Lan still didn’t know what position this person had in Kunlun.

Of course, he did not dare to investigate.

It was easy to walk into a trap.

If he was strong enough, he would try to investigate other things.

At the moment, he could read the books that his master had left him, and this would be sufficient for now.

Jiang Lan closed the book.

It was getting dark. It was time to cultivate.

He could not stop tempering his golden body. Only when his golden body was perfected could he advance to the Celestial Immortal Realm.

Although it was not far from a breakthrough, he could not relax.

When it came to cultivation, if one did not advance, one would fall behind.

At night.

…

Jiang Lan began cultivating.

Eleven years was not enough for him to advance to become a Celestial Immortal, but he was not in a hurry.

He would take her time.

He would advance when the conditions were right.

The next day.

He returned to the courtyard alone and left the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower in the Netherworld Cave.

It had been a long time since it had come into contact with the aura of the Netherworld, so the egg and the flower were a little more spirited.

Thus, he did not bring them out.

He would bring them out and get some sun the next time.

He sat in the courtyard and opened the book on ‘Ancient Imperial Rumors’ to see how many legends there were and what kind of place it was.

Perhaps there were no specific records, but it was naturally a good thing to know more without affecting one’s cultivation.

However, just as he opened the book, someone rushed to the courtyard.

It was Xiao Yu who came in on her sword.

“Junior Brother.”

Xiao Yu landed on the stone table.

“Senior Sister.” Jiang Lan looked at Xiaoyu in surprise.

“What are you doing, Junior Brother?” Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan with a smile on her face, sitting beside him.

“Reading,” Jiang Lan replied.

He did not hide it.

“Any more? Give me one.” Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan and asked.

“This.” Jiang Lan took out the most ordinary book which talked about the matters of the Grand Desolate World.

Reading this would not affect her cultivation.

Books on the Ancient Imperial Palace and Deity Positions were not suitable for his Senior Sister.

He was too far away from his Senior Sister.

Xiao Yu didn’t pick anything. She leaned against Jiang Lan and started reading.

Since that was the case, Jiang Lan didn’t say anything else and continued to read his book.

After a while, he heard Xiao Yu’s voice.

“Aren’t you curious why I suddenly ran down here?”

“Senior Sister, why did you suddenly come down?” Jiang Lan asked Xiaoyu.

Hearing this question, Xiao Yu immediately sat down and looked at Jiang Lan with a straight face.

“Do I need a reason to come here?”

Jiang Lan: “…”

“Hehe.” Xiao Yu smiled happily and leaned against Jiang Lan to continue reading.

The number of emotions his Senior Sister displayed had increased again, Jiang Lan thought.

However, he could feel that his Senior Sister was very happy.

Without saying anything else, Jiang Lan continued to read to see if there were any obvious gains.

He continued reading till noon, but he did not gain anything.

However, there was one thing that surprised him.

Previously, it was rumored that the Ancient Imperial Palace had appeared in the Western Wastelands. Later on, it was rumored that it had spread all over the Grand Desolate World.

It was as if every place had the shadow of the Ancient Imperial Palace.

In the Eastern Wastelands, there seemed to be a cultivation technique passed down by the Ancient Imperial Palace, and in the Southern Wastelands, there was a path through the mountain that seemed to have been created by the Ancient Imperial Palace..

In the Northern Wastelands, it was even rumored that the Ancient Imperial Palace had sent an army down a massacre to exterminate an entire race.

The most popular rumour in the Central Plains was that people vanished with members of the Ancient Imperial Palace.

There was also an altar in the Western Wastelands, but no one knew what it was used for.

However, there was something that made Jiang Lan rather concerned.

It was written like this:

The Ancient Imperial Palace is not a single force, much less an ordinary one. It can be said to be formed from many divisions. Every division has its own things to do. Rumors can’t depict the whole picture, and the Ancient Imperial Palace is probably not the full name of the faction.. It should have a complete name.
