Chapter 286: 286: History

'How many floors was it again? From the outside, it looked like it was 20 stories tall. But from the inside, the ceiling seems much higher than what one would expect.' 

'Is it 2 stories for a single floor? The size seems to match that. Hmm… so there must only be 10 floors in total, and I  am on the 4th floor already,' Alex thought as he walked up the staircase to the 4th floor. 

He immediately walked over to the Artifact section since it was the closest and started looking through books, searching for information on Yang Jades once more. 

It took him a while, but he successfully found it. 

'Ah here it is, let's see. Yang Jades are originally just normal jades with no Qi in them. However, when those normal jades come in contact with the incredibly dense source of Yang energy, they start getting affected by the Yang energy and turn to Yang jades.'

'Yang jades are very rare as places with extreme yang energy is… nearly impossible to find… what? How can it be rare? There is literally slew of yang jades in the forbidden fields,' Alex thought. 

The book was giving information that didn't seem to match with what he knew about the yang jades. 

'That means… the book is wrong… or the other possible scenario, the Forbidden Fields is just that unique. But according to the book, the Yang Jades are only made when they stay around in the extreme yang spots and swallow some of the yangs to themselves.' 

'However, if the forbidden fields had Yang energy, shouldn't my body react to it— No wait, it did react, in the desert. That thing… that reaction my body showed towards the place in the north of desert... Was that the extreme yang spot? If so… then how are the Yang Jades so scattered away from them.'

'None of this makes sense,' Alex thought. He didn't know if his hypothesis was right or not, so he tried to look for information on eating Yang Jades. As he had expected, there were none. 

He left the book and went to the alchemy section to look for Spirit Cleansing lily, but there was nothing about it. So, he moved to the cultivation section where he searched both about the lily and the different bodies. 

However, he was disappointed when he found out there was no information about them here. 

'Sigh, I will have to go up a floor,' he thought and moved away from that section. He went to the formation section to read for a few more minutes before he went up a floor. 

He walked up the staircase and now he was on the 5th floor.  He directly went to the artifact section of the floor and read up on yang jades again to see if there was any additional information. 

There was, but it only talked about how Yang Jades would lose their energy over a few months if one didn't use it at all or kept it in yang concentrated place.

'A few months? Didn't master say it lost energy very quickly? Was she wrong?' he wondered. Seeing that there was no more information, he left that section and went to the alchemy section. 

He looked through the books and searched for information on Lilies again. Finally, he found some relevant information.

The book talked about using the lilies to cultivate and unlock the spiritual sea. That wasn't anything new to him, but it was a good start. He now knew that he would be able to perhaps find more information if he went up the floor. 

He went to the cultivation section and searched for bodies. There was some information but none of it was what he wanted to learn. 

He decided to leave the floor once more after remembering the formation books of this floor.

He walked up to the 6th floor and searched around for any information he could find. He went to the artifact section for the yang jades but there were none anymore. 

The alchemy section didn't have much for Spirit Cleansing Lilies either. At least, the information they did have was useless to him.

He was a little excited on the lower floor, but it seemed he would have to look around some more. He wanted to go to the cultivation section to look for more information on the lily and bodies but instead stopped, because of what he saw in one of the other sections. 

The section he stopped at was History and the book that caught his attention was The Entire History of the Crimson Empire. 

'Oh, history of this empire, huh? I'm quite curious,' he thought and started reading. 

Before the Crimson Empire was formed, the place was called the Shattered Kingdoms. There were multiple small countries that ruled their own lands and were in constant war with each other. 

Each of these kingdoms had their own king that tried to fight against other kingdoms to add those lands to their own country. 

The kings were obviously a cultivator, so the mortals remained in fear every day, hoping this wasn't the day that they were randomly attacked and killed. 

The different cultivators showed no mercy to anyone they met and freely killed people in the name of their kings. The war-trodden times were a time of terror and fear. 

Each of the kings wanted to rule over the entire land, but they were all equal in strength so they couldn't do anything to each other. The king's armies weren't very strong either when compared to the others. 

So, this caused a lot of small skirmishes and battles that simply showed aggression for the sake of aggression. None of the kings could win against the other kings and they knew it. 

That, however, lasted for not so long. A person appeared out of nowhere and became the king of a small land near the southern forest called the Cardinal Kingdom. 

The name of this illustrious person who was going to change the stability amongst the different kingdoms was Fu Qiong.
