This scroll wasn't genuine.
At first glance, Jiang Wang had reached that conclusion.
Things passed down from the Recent Antiquity Era, especially Immortal Palace creations, had a distinctive air about them. The ancient years layered within them, and the special system of Immortal Arts, separate from Daoist Arts, made Immortal Palace creations difficult to counterfeit.
Jiang Wang had an entire complex of Cloud Peak Immortal Palace buildings in his possession. Though it was only a ruin, slowly being restored, at the current rate it would take at least tens of thousands of years for the Spirit Void Hall to fully recover using only the primordial energy it absorbed.
Yet one glance was enough for him to tell that this scroll wasn't genuine—at least, it wasn't an authentic piece passed down from the Immortal Palace of the Recent Antiquity Era.
Still, it wasn't a fake, either. The marks of time on the scroll were real. It had indeed endured the long ages and survived to the present day.
Jiang Wang guessed that someone had made a copy of the scroll near the end of the Recent Antiquity Era.
By some twist of fate, it had come into the hands of the Five Immortals Sect's founder.
The scroll had a long history, too. Ordinary people might not have found it easy to tell the difference. Fan Qingqing herself probably didn't know that the inheritance passed down through her sect wasn't genuine.
But Jiang Wang had personally recovered the Spirit Void Hall and the Azure Cloud Pavilion. He could spot the difference at a glance.
Even if it wasn't genuine, its value was still beyond measure. The Immortal Art Walking on Azure Clouds had already benefited Jiang Wang immensely. What wonders might the inheritance of another Immortal Palace recorded on this scroll reveal?
