Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Upon entering the Eternal Relics, Lu Yang didn’t feel strange.

The Eternity Sect’s branch, Yanjiang Rudder, has a secret realm, which is built exactly like the Eternal Relics to enhance a sense of belonging and faith in the Immortal Eternity.

The platforms floating in the air, the ancient buildings on the platforms, everything was all too familiar. Under the test of time, the buildings had collapsed, making it difficult to imagine what they looked like before their collapse.

Eldest Senior Sister snapped her fingers, and the collapsed buildings floated up, assembling into their original form, as if time had reversed.

The architectural style was different from contemporary ones, however, there was absolutely no connection between these buildings and the word “ancient”.

The contemporary architecture style originated from the era of Great Qian, evolving over three hundred thousand years, changing with the times.

In the ancient era, it had been more than three hundred thousand years. By the end of the ancient era, the arts, language, and other aspects were very advanced, not less than now. The difference with the present was only in the style.

The main body of the architecture was magnificent, with buildings scattered in an orderly manner. Even the main gates were inlaid with yellow jade, green jade, and red gold, exuding a sense of grandeur.

“Do you recognize these buildings, elder?” Yun Zhi asked.

There were only the three of them within the relics. Fairy Eternity didn’t need to hide her whereabouts and came out from the spiritual space.

She examined these buildings carefully, then shook her head lightly: “I don’t recognize these buildings. Although I don’t understand architectural styles, I always feel that these don’t look like the buildings of my time.”

Yun Zhi expressed surprise, which was rare: “According to the Great Xia Dynasty’s assessment, these relics have been around for three to four hundred thousand years. The Great Xia Dynasty has never made a mistake in time identification.”

“Moreover, the style and layout of the buildings here do not match the situation in the early Great Qian era.”

“The academic world generally has a notion that, as the Ancient Nameless One refined the stars, the once glorious ancient times were reduced to ashes. Along with it, countless wealth also disappeared.”

“Therefore, when the Great Qian Dynasty was just established, it advocated frugality, reducing taxes and rent. If you think about the buildings of the Eternal Relics, while not extravagant, they certainly don’t align with thriftiness.”

These are not Yun Zhi’s words, but what the scholars organized by the court had written in their report to Emperor Xia after investigating the place.

“Then I really don’t know.” Fairy Eternity honestly said, she was not good at thinking about these issues.

Lu Yang remained silent throughout. He didn’t expect to encounter difficulties from the start of the exploration of the relics. Even the era in which the relics are located had not been determined.

Moving forward, there were the murals that Lu Yang was familiar with.

In the murals, an Immortal Eternity with open arms could not be identified as male or female. The Immortal Eternity was holding countless planets in his arms, with a tiny person kneeling on each planet. The tiny people were holding up their tributes to the Immortal Eternity.

Looking back four months, Master Chu of Yanjiang County took Lu Yang and the others into the secret realm, introducing the origins of the Immortal Eternity in front of the mural and revealing the enigma of the Ancient Nameless One refining the planets to Lu Yang.

Times have changed, Lu Yang sighed. It hadn’t been long since then, Master Chu, a good man, was gone just like that. The murderer remains at large, unaccountable for his actions.

To the right of the mural, was a long passage which Lu Yang couldn’t understand.

“Is this the text from the ancient era?”

Yun Zhi nodded and roughly translated for Lu Yang. The general meaning was that in the ancient times, the Immortal Eternity was protecting the human race. Immortal Eternity fought against the Ancient Nameless One, died from exhaustion, but as long as you call out the name of the Immortal Eternity, he could be revived.

Now it can be confirmed that this part of the history was fabricated. Whether it was Fairy Eternity, Yellow Bean, or Immortal Eternity, Sha Meless, none of them had ever done such a thing.

Fairy Eternity had already fallen before the Ancient Nameless One could refine the stars, and Immortal Eternity had just been born a few months ago.

“So this is actually a relic from the ancient era?” Lu Yang furrowed his brows, feeling that things shouldn’t be so simple.

Yun Zhi shook her head: “If it were before, I might have thought so, but after what the elder has said, I feel that the text on the mural might have been intentionally left by the person behind the scenes to mislead us.”

Yun Zhi turned to ask Fairy Eternity: “Elder, I have translated most of the text just now. In today’s times, people can’t fully translate the ancient language, for example, this inscription. The scholars sent by the court, as well as myself, are unable to translate it.”

Fairy Eternity looked at this inscription, her eyebrows knitted in silence. Of course, she could understand it, but it was so strange that she thought she had read it wrong.

She read it slowly and deliberately: “May the blessings of Immortal Eternity be upon us, may the Fire Dynasty reign eternal.”

Fairy Eternity then asked: “What is the Fire Dynasty?”

Lu Yang was also puzzled, he had never heard of a dynasty called “Fire”.

Looking at the timeline, the end of the ancient era was marked by the rise of the Great Qian Dynasty from the ruins. A hundred thousand years later, the Great Yu dynasty replaced Great Qian, another hundred thousand years passed, and then the Great Xia Dynasty replaced Great Yu, lasting till today.

There was no room for a Fire Dynasty.

The Fire Dynasty could not have existed in the ancient era, according to Fairy Eternity,

Lu yang and Fairy Eternity looked at Yun Zhi together, hoping to get an answer.

Yun Zhi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, puzzled by this situation: “I’ve never heard of a Fire Dynasty either, could it be that there was a Fire Dynasty in the ancient era?”

Lu Yang dismissed this notion: “That’s impossible, Fairy told me that the ancient era only had tribes; concepts like ‘dynasty’ and ‘law’ didn’t exist.”

Fairy Eternity nodded.

Lu Yang made a hypothesis: “Could it be possible that the concept of a dynasty was established, and a dynasty was founded, after Fairy’s fall?”

Yun Zhi shook her head: “After the elder fell, the Ancient Nameless One quickly refined the mainland, wiping out all those who knew Fairy’s true name. These two events couldn’t have been too far apart in time. It’s not feasible to establish a dynasty within such a short span of time.”

Yun Zhi’s implication was that Fairy Eternity’s fall marked the beginning of the end of the ancient era.

Lu Yang seemed to have an idea, but this guess was terrifying and simply overturned the common knowledge.

“Since we have eliminated all doubts, only two possibilities remain.”

“The first possibility is that the mural was created by the puppet master, who fabricated a non-existent ‘Fire Dynasty’ to cloud our judgment.”

“The problem with the first possibility is that creating a fictitious dynasty is too easily discredited, and there is no point in creating it.”

“The second possibility is that there was a dynasty in between the ancient era and the Great Qian era, named the Fire Dynasty.”

“The Fire Dynasty was the first in history, and it was a legacy of the ancient times, using the ancient language, acquiring the ancient wealth. With the collapse of the Fire Dynasty, the ancient legacy was completely cut off.”

“The problem with the second possibility is, why does no one know about the existence of the Fire Dynasty? The birth and collapse of a dynasty, wouldn’t there be the slightest of records?”
