Immortal Cultivating Dynasty

"No wonder you acted in such a manner that day. Besides King Chiang's orders, you also wanted to follow me to cultivate!"    

Su Yue'er bowed deeply and kowtowed for a long time.    

"Then why did you leave the Palace after that? Even if I don't like it, it doesn't matter!"    

"That was His Majesty's arrangement. In order to prevent the Immortal Master from having any ill feelings, if we were not chosen for the first time, we would be given to the officials in the court. Furthermore, if we refuse, we will die."    

"What?"    

Yang Xuan was shocked and could not help but look at Chiang Hai in the distance.    

Anyone who was rejected had to die. This kind of thinking was hard for him to accept.    

But after thinking for a while, he understood and stayed silent.    

In a small country like Chiang Country, the status of cultivators was too revered. All of this was done by the ruler of a country in order to keep the Immortal Master.    

Indeed, to Yang Xuan, these actions were meaningless. However, if he met someone who was serious and gave the girl to him as a gift to someone else, he might get angry because of this.    

Yang Xuan sighed. Emperor Chiang had the same attitude towards him. The reason why this girl was able to survive was because of a single sentence from him. There was even Chiang Hai, the prince, who was accompanying her.    

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "How about this? I still have some matters to attend to. You can go to the courtyard and wait for me. We will discuss this matter after you return. What do you think?"    

Su Yue'er was overjoyed that she was not rejected. She quickly stood up and nodded, "Thank you, Immortal Master."    

Before she could continue speaking, Yang Xuan bypassed her and went to Chiang Hai's side. He left the place with her.    

The two of them slowly walked towards a large hall.    

Chiang Hai walked in front of Yang Xuan and was silent for a while. Suddenly, he said, "Mr Yang, Miss Su was taken away by that Chen Qiusheng. He has been killed."    

This was his final explanation, but it made Yang Xuan frown slightly.    

"Dead? Brother Jiang, this kind of thing doesn't need to be killed!"    

"This..." Chiang Hai was stunned for a moment, but he did not hide it. "He took the person away from the palace without permission because he disdained the dignity of the royal family. Father was furious, so..."    

Yang Xuan was stunned. He did not really understand these matters of the royal family. He just nodded and did not say anything else.    

Seeing that he didn't intend to pursue the matter, Chiang Hai also heaved a long sigh of relief. He silently walked in front and brought him to an empty hall.    

This place was very different from the other places in the palace. There were no luxurious decorations, nor were there any guards that could be seen everywhere. The entire hall was empty, and there wasn't a single person to be seen.    

Before entering the hall, Chiang Hai even gave Yang Xuan a small token. It seemed to be made of metal, and there were many symbols engraved on it.    

In the main hall, Emperor Chiang stood there alone. When he saw Yang Xuan, he immediately greeted him.    

"Mr Yang."    

"King Chiang, where is this place?"    

Yang Xuan was the first to ask. He kept looking around the hall with a strange look in his eyes.    

"Hai Er, you go out first."    

"Yes, father."    

Chiang Hai cupped his hands and left the main hall. Only then did Emperor Chiang look at Yang Xuan and said, "Mr Yang, this is the center of the palace of Chiang Country, and also the core of the grand formation of the palace."    

"No wonder."    

Yang Xuan nodded his head as if he had understood something. As soon as he entered this place, he found an extremely strange force. It was incomparably massive, as if it had covered the sky and was drifting around in this spatial zone.    

"Mr Yang, you must keep the token that Hai'er gave you well. That is the symbol of our royal family. If you lose it, this grand formation will attack you."    

Emperor Chiang said as he walked towards the front of the hall.    

Yang Xuan thoughtfully looked at the metal token in his hand. He hung it on his waist and followed after him.    

The hall was empty, not even the basic tables and chairs. The surrounding walls seemed to be made of metal. If one looked closely, there were countless strange lines drawn on it.    

The starting point of these lines was the center of the ground. There was a huge ring there. It was also the most complicated line of inscription, and there were many runes within it. However, if it was too detailed, one would feel dizzy just by looking at it.    

"This formation was built by the founding ancestor of our Chiang Country. It's said that the Chiang Country was extremely powerful at that time. The cultivation of our ancestor was unfathomable, far beyond what we can reach now."    

Emperor Chiang walked in front and said without turning his head. Finally, he stopped in the middle of the hall.    

"Mr Yang, this formation can send us into the underground energy vein."    

"Transportation formation?"    

Yang Xuan's pupils shrunk, and a bright light flashed within.    

Emperor Chiang smiled bitterly and nodded. "That's right, this is indeed a teleportation formation, but it can only teleport back and forth between the spirit vein and the palace, and cannot change the location."    

"So that's how it is."    

Yang Xuan nodded in disappointment and walked in.    

Emperor Chiang took out an orange token from his sleeve and muttered something.    

After a while, the token glowed with a five-colored light. As soon as the light appeared, it flew in all directions and spread to the ring mark below.    

Yang Xuan felt goosebumps all over his body, as if a huge existence had woken up. After that, a glaring light lit up in front of his eyes.    

When the light faded away, the surroundings were no longer the hall in front of him. Instead, it was a huge empty cave.    

At this moment, they were in a corner of the cave. In front of them was an empty land, and in the center was a gigantic stone pillar, standing there all alone.    

"Is this the bottom of the imperial palace?"    

Yang Xuan's eyes were full of amazement. He raised his head and took a look at the rugged rock wall. Occasionally, he would see some specks of fluorescence flickering unceasingly.    

These specks of light were very weak. They couldn't illuminate the cave at all, but the four sides were extremely bright.    

Yang Xuan looked towards the source of the light. In one direction of the cave, multicolored light gushed out, and a dense mist drifted about. It was like the entrance to an immortal realm.    

"Mr Yang, this is the foundation of our Chiang Country, and it is also the energy vein of this mountain range."    

Emperor Chiang spoke solemnly, then turned to Yang Xuan and said, "I have already brought you here, and this is against the rules of our ancestors. I hope that Mr Yang will be able to achieve something, and do not lend our Chiang Country a helping hand."    

"If I can break through to the Mid Third Stage, I will naturally be obligated to do so. However, King Chiang, do you know how difficult it is?"    

Yang Xuan frowned. Although this place was somewhat mystical, the density of the Spiritual Force was just average. It made him feel uncertain.    

Emperor Chiang looked at him and said solemnly, "Mr Yang might not know, but there is one of the teachings of our Chiang Country's ancestors. If there are any Third Stage descendants, they can come here and find some fortune. That was left behind by the old ancestor of Chiang Country. It will not be bad. "    

"However, after the old ancestor, there are no more Third Stage warriors in Chiang Country. Hai'er has some hope, but he might not be able to achieve it."
