The Imperial Library was situated in the southern part of the Imperial Palace.

This four-storey pagoda-like building contained almost all of the most sought-after cultivation manuals, experience tabs, and even a few manuals related to Arcane Arts.

Yuan Shuchun once declared her Arcane Arts manual as the prize for a banquet that Ye Tian Yun attended a few months ago.

The manuals in the Imperial Library were not the same, but they were indeed related to the Arcane Arts.

However, Ye Tian Yun was not here for them.

Neither was he here for any cultivation manual.

Rather, he wanted to go through the cultivation experience of the predecessors regarding the Sword Soul.

'In my previous life, by the time I reached the peak of Sword Domain, I was too busy scheming against the God's Legion that I didn't get the chance to come here.'

'I hope this trip is worthwhile. If I can get Sword Soul within the next few years, no amount of luck will be able to help Wang Yao in catching up to me.

Ye Tian Yun soon arrived in front of a huge four-storey pavilion. The words "Imperial Library" were carved on a plaque, giving off a majestic vibe.

Staring at the plaque in front of him, he couldn't help but smile.

[The Imperial Library]

[This is an arena of possibility, opening both a window into the soul and a door into the world.]

'Indeed.'

Ye Tian Yun nodded.

In his opinion, the only thing one absolutely had to know was the location of the library.

Be it in a small sect or a kingdom spanning the whole realm; libraries were always considered sacred.

'I am sure I will be able to get a new direction for my Sword Intent cultivation here.'

Ye Tian Yun walked inside and saw a young man with dark black hair and high vitality sitting behind a large table in front of the inner entrance.

Usually, there would be an old elder sitting here if it had been any other library; however, in the Great Ye Clan, the elders paid special attention to the heart of the younger generation.

That was why there was always someone from the younger generation sitting at the entrance, looking after the palace.

As for fear of the books getting stolen or an enemy attack?

The Great Ye Clan was very confident when it came to defense.

To reach the Imperial Library, one would have to enter the Imperial Palace, which was impossible unless he entered through the main gate. He also needed to have permission for this.

The young man sitting at the table raised his head upon sensing him and smiled.

"Welcome, Crown Prince." He said.

Ye Tian Yun was a celebrity in the whole Middle Heavens. How could his own clansmen not know him? Especially the younger generation. To everyone, sans few, he was like a god-like figure.

Mysterious, unfathomable, and powerful.

Ye Tian Yun greeted the young man, "Good day, Brother Ye Cui."

"Ah!" The young man in front of him was shocked, "You know my name, Crown Prince!?"

Ye Tian Yun simply smiled, "That's the least I can do."

"Haha! This is enough, Crown Prince" Ye Cui smiled, "How can I help you?"

Ye Tian Yun smiled and said, "I will be heading to the Third Floor."

"Oh?" Ye Cui was curious, but this wasn't his first time here, so he knew what shouldn't be asked.

"I will lead you there, Crown Prince." He added and stepped inside the library.

Ye Tian Yun smiled and followed him.

'It's good that I noticed the names of the disciples on the notice board outside the Imperial Library.'

There was a notice board at the entrance of this building, and on that board was a list of the disciples who would be on duty.

That was how he knew that the disciple walking in front of him was called Ye Cui.

"Please head this way," Ye Cui came at a halt and pointed at Ye Tian Yun, "This staircase is strengthened with arrays and will rise automatically. You just need to put both of your steps at the bottom, and it will take you to the third floor."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Thank you."

Ye Cui laughed, "My pleasure, Crown Prince. I will now take my leave."

Ye Tian Yun nodded and stepped on the first step.

Soon the stairway began to move, and he rose with it.

As he left, the First Floor, which was silent, suddenly turned abuzz.

"Crown Prince was here!"

"Wow! I couldn't even speak anything…."

"Me too… sigh. I should have greeted him."

The Ye Clan disciples who had been quietly studying the cultivation manuals began to discuss among themselves.

They hadn't noticed Ye Tian Yun's arrival until Ye Cui had started to tell him about the array staircase.

"Silence!" 

Suddenly, a shout resounded on the First Floor.

It was Ye Cui.

"If you want to talk, go outside. This is the library, and I don't want to see or hear any disturbance."

The disciples turned quiet once again and focused on the manuals in front of them.

Ye Cui nodded at them, and glancing at the moving staircase, he smiled.

'Today was a lucky day.'

Upon reaching the Third Floor, Ye Tian Yun didn't waste any time and went straight towards the [Intents] section.

Every floor of the Imperial Library had a purpose, and the Third Floor mainly contained manuals regarding the cultivation experiences.

However, because not just anyone's cultivation experience was good for every person who read it thus, not everyone could simply enter this floor. The Elders were afraid that the younger generation might get derailed from the correct path because of the influence from these experience manuals.

So only a few of them were allowed to enter.

However, just like the other floors, this floor was also divided into different sections and subsections.

Ye Tian Yun went straight for the [Sword] Sub-section in the [Intent] Section.

'I am sure there will be at least a few experts who have reached the Sword Soul Realm.'
