Simulation becomes reality, have I ever looked down upon the eternity?

Chapter 212: Announce to the Heaven and Earth, and establish the Great Yan State!
[The dawn is coming, and the sky is cracking with light!]

【Yanjing City, South Gate.】

[You look helpless, but it's hard to avoid.]

[A messenger has been sent to inform Liu Wen and others that they want to return to Beijing in a low profile, but they were ultimately unable to do so.]

[The sound of mountains and seas on both sides!]

[Lu Yu seems to be deliberately lagging behind you. 】

[Only you, riding alone, with the sound of horse hooves, stepping on the ancient bluestone road. ]

[On the tower, shadows of people were seen, a woman covered her face and wept, an old man knelt down and could not get up.]

【“King Yan is back!”】

【“Long live the King of Yan!”】

【“King Yan, go home.”】

[Thousands of people watched a rider slowly walk into the gate of Yanjing.]

[You look up at the horizon, the morning light is as gorgeous as brocade, the distant mountains are low, and the autumn frost dyes the mountains red. That is the unique scenery of autumn, which is magnificent in the cold. ]

[Every time I go down the mountain, besides the rain that washes away the dust, I am accompanied by this bleak autumn. ]

[It’s not the spring when flowers are blooming, but the autumn is in full swing. 】

【It just so happens that I don’t come in spring!】

[At this moment, you feel that the luck that usually comes from Yandi seems to be even more powerful at this moment.]

【Amid the cheers of the masses, you rode into Yanjing on horseback. 】

[“Isn’t it nothing special?” On the tower, Yuwen Liqian’s maid curled her lips and looked at the middle-aged man on horseback, speaking with a hint of disdain.]

[“He looks just like that, ordinary, not as good as the legend says.” She continued. During this time in Yan, the name of King Yan Lu Chen echoed in her ears almost every day, but now that she saw him with her own eyes, she didn’t see that he had three heads and six arms. ]

[He is just a middle-aged man with some bearing.]

[However, before the maid finished speaking, she did not notice the serious look in her master Yuwen Liqian's eyes.]

[Yuwen Liqian's thoughts drifted back to the past, when his father was traveling, he issued an order for the people to accompany him to show his closeness to the people.]

[But in the end, those officials found some ragged, skinny people to fill the positions, which was quite shabby.]

【But now, the scene downstairs is completely different. 】

[Everywhere you look, you can see healthy and energetic people, and there are countless wealthy people wearing silk and satin.]

[She even saw people in the crowd, many students holding up the book "Essentials of Governing the North".]

[You know, all the students and scholars in the world read the books of sages, so why would they admire the book written by a Taoist monk in Mount Zhongnan so much?]

【It’s what people think. 】

[This King of Yan has acquired the aura of a sage monarch! ]

[Confucianism says: "He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world."]

【It is to take the world as public and follow the great way. 】

[Yuwen Liqian decided to write a letter and send it back to South Korea. In her mind, the biggest threat they were facing was neither Qianyuan nor Chu, but the Yan State, which was about to be established.]

[Although Qianyuan's prince Wulong had a smile on his face, his eyes revealed a seriousness that was difficult to conceal.]

[He knew very well that the rise of Yan would have a profound impact on the existing situation.]

【Moreover, the Lord of Yan has truly returned. 】

【Xie Chunan of Daqing did not cast his eyes on the Yan Wang Lu Chen at this moment. He practiced Guigu in his early years and became a disciple of Yin Yang School. He was proficient in the art of destiny. He only needed to see the ups and downs of a mortal's power and wealth with just one glance.】

[Thinking back then, he had tried to spy on the luck of the young Yan Wang Lu Chen, but he almost lost the "Looking for Luck" method that he had cultivated with great effort. ]

[Since then, he no longer dared to hope for Lu Chen's luck.]

[Therefore, Xie Chunan did not look at Lu Chen, but cast his gaze towards the sky above Yanjing. ]

[When he first came to Yanjing, he sensed an invisible "golden dragon of luck" hovering over Yanjing.]

[Although the golden dragon has a dragon head and a dragon body, it has no claws or horns. It is hidden in the clouds, invisible and shapeless, and cannot be detected by a true physiognomist.]

[It seems to be gathering momentum, waiting for the moment of true take-off. ]

[A sign of a dragon lurking in the abyss!]

[Now, when Lu Chen appeared, Xie Chunan was extremely surprised to see that the golden dragon of luck that originally soared above the sky of Yanjing had quietly transformed! ]

[The golden dragon has four sharp claws, towering dragon horns on its head, and a brilliant glow all over its body, just like a real dragon descending from the earth. ]

【Xie Chunan knew very well that the rise of Yan State was unstoppable.】

[Recalling the past, when Lu Chen first entered the capital, the emperor committed suicide in the palace, and the national fortune of Daqing quickly disappeared like a flood. The four claws faded, the dragon horns also disappeared without a trace, and the national fortune declined. ]

[After losing its dragon energy, Daqing fell into decline and became the most humble of the four nations, relying on others for support and living in misery.]

[On the city wall, the envoys from various countries were either amazed or fearful. ]

【Only Xie Lingxuan shed tears quietly. 】

【She feels genuine joy for your achievement! 】

[From now on, at the foot of Mount Zhongnan, in the shade of the trees, no one among the group of beautiful women will dare to joke and ask you:]

【“Master Bao, do you regret it?”】

【Back then, he was a young man in a thin blue shirt, but now he has become a powerful ruler of a country. 】

[For the next two days, Yanjing City was decorated with lights and was bustling with activity.]

[Common people from all over Yan land continued to flock to Yanjing. ]

[On the third day, a grand ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens will be held on the top of the towering Yujing Mountain, a hundred miles north of Yanjing.]

[Yujing Mountain, this peak is the top of the northern mountains. It was once the Lingxiu Taoist temple of the Three True Sect in the north. Later, due to the raging north wind, the sect moved south and was rebuilt in Zhongnan Mountain.]

[In recent years, this mountain has regained its vitality. After careful renovation, it has become the gathering center for the northern disciples of the Three True Sect.]

[On that day, at the dawn, the foot of the mountain was already bustling with people. ] [All the high officials in Yan gathered here, their faces full of joy. ]

[Hundreds of officials are in formation, and sixty thousand soldiers are wearing armor. ]

[Although the people were not strictly controlled, the soldiers maintained order on the mountain roads and led everyone up the mountain in an orderly manner to participate in the grand event. ]

[On the top of the mountain, the altar stood majestically, the large tripods were displayed, and the beacon fires were burning, illuminating the sky. ]

[Although the style of simplicity is advocated, the grand ceremony is still breathtaking. ]

[The four major formations, all officials and female relatives have taken their positions, their robes fluttering like clouds.]

[Your father, Lu Jiaxuan, is dressed in a formal suit, standing hand in hand with your mother.]

[Although the two elders are already in their seventies, their complexions are ruddy.]

【Later, my uncle Wei Gao, my cousin and others. 】

[Even the envoys from the four countries can come to watch the ceremony. ]

[This time, Daqing, Hanguo, Qianyuan, and even Dachu came to watch the ceremony. 】

【As the sacrificial words sounded, the ceremony slowly moved to the middle. 】

【It’s noon! 】

[You were supposed to wear a dragon robe today, but you just changed into a black court robe. ]

[Slowly walked out from the crowd and climbed the stairs. ]

[You slowly walked towards the supreme altar, holding a seal tightly in your hand, symbolizing supreme authority.]

[As far as the eye can see, there are officials lined up neatly below, as well as the twenty-six brave generals of the former Lu family army. ]

[Behind you are a crowd of people, waiting with bated breath for your declaration.]

【At this moment, everything is quiet. 】

[You gaze at the majestic tripod in front of you, which symbolizes the supremacy of royal power.]

[You speak slowly, your voice steady and powerful:]

[“There are many stories of foreign invasions of a country since ancient times. Before the Great Qing Dynasty was built, it was replaced by the northern wind, and the land of China sank, almost destroying the country and wiping out the whole nation.”]

[“Alas, my people, our fathers and brothers, have risen one after another for more than 40 years, and now we have established the State of Yan.”]

【“When the voice of justice spreads, the whole world responds.”】

[“Now I am sinking into the land, announcing this to the heavens and earth, the sky, the sun, the moon, the mountains and the rivers.”]

[“After ten years of war, we have pacified the north, and have stopped fighting to let the people rest in the fields. Now the territory is over 10,000 miles. All the ministers say: The people have no master, so we must promote the title of emperor.”]

[“Although I am of low literary and moral character, I dare not decline and will temporarily take over the throne. On the sixteenth day of the eighth month of this year, I will set up an altar on the south side of Yujing Mountain and prepare ceremonies to announce to the Emperor that the name of the country under heaven will be Great Yan.”]

【“Jianyuan Wujian.”】

[As the echo of your last words fell, deafening shouts suddenly erupted from Yujing Mountain.]

[However, amid the roar of the mountains and the sea, you seem to have entered another world, and found yourself in a quiet void.]

【There is no noise around. 】

[When you said the decisive words "Jianyuan Wujian", you felt an endless amount of luck surging like a tide, surrounding you tightly.]

[Instantly, the world spins and you seem to be sucked into a vortex of chaos, losing your sense of direction and unable to control your body.]

[When you look down again, it seems as if the mountains and rivers of the entire Yan area are within your grasp, just like the lines in the palm of your hand, clearly visible.]

【View the mountains and rivers in the palm of your hand. 】

[The luck between these mountains, rivers, and the people gathered like mist, coming one after another, passing by quickly like a revolving lantern.]

[You hurriedly used the "Heavenly Refining Hand" to try to refine these majestic fortunes, but found that they were as hard as stubborn stones and could not be easily refined.]

[Just when you feel you have no idea where to start, the Heavenly Refining Hands in your body, which was originally based on the Xiantian Gong, actually begins to operate spontaneously, as if it has found an opportunity to match these fortunes.]

[In an instant, your cultivation broke through here and reached the perfection of the Heavenly Man Realm, but the Heavenly Hand Refining Technique still cannot break through the sixth level.]

[The spiritual energy and luck in the body are still pouring in, but it is still unable to break through this realm, as if it is blocked by an invisible barrier. ]

[Lu Yu noticed your discomfort and showed a worried look on his face. But you gave him a reassuring look, telling him not to worry.]

[You know in your heart that you cannot break through the limits of heaven and earth by relying solely on martial arts.]

[Although martial arts are powerful, they are ultimately limited. If you want to reach a higher level, you must find another way. ]

[The founder of the Three True Sect left this before his death.]

[“Unify the country and shatter the void with force.”]

[Amid the cheers of the crowd, Xie Chunan kept staring at the horizon of Yujing Mountain.]

[The golden dragon of fortune that swam from Yanjing looked even more dazzling under the scorching sun. Just after you finished reading the words of offering sacrifice to the heaven, it suddenly roared to the sky.]

[It doubled in size again, and a fifth claw grew on its abdomen. Its scales opened and closed, undulating and lifelike.]

[There are signs of a dragon flying into the sky! ]

【An invisible roar! 】

【Xie Chunan felt a pain in his eyes, and quickly retracted the "Qi-gazing" technique.】

[He knew that this divine beast that protected the nation's destiny had already acquired intelligence and could no longer be observed at will.]

[For a great country, its dragon veins can no longer be seen. 】

【The Great Yan State was established.】

[From today on, Yan will no longer be a vassal of Daqing, but will be reorganized. ]

【Its name is "The First Year of Jianwu!"】

【A new era is coming. 】

I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, a happy reunion, and there will be another chapter in the evening!
