The concept of a born saint begins with Strange Tales from Liaozhai.

……

The State of Jin.

In Quwo City.

Silence fell over the hall.

At this moment, only shock remained on the face of Duke Hui of Jin, Yi Wu, the ruler of the State of Jin.

His expression kept changing. "That Qi Hou fellow is dead?!"

If the Marquis of Qi had died a natural death, he naturally wouldn't have thought anything of it.

but……

Duke Hui of Jin was in a daze, and couldn't help but recall the prophecy that the God of Wushan had given to the Marquis of Qi that day.

At this moment, the ministers in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment.

The scene from several years ago is still vivid in their minds.

At the time, they even told the king about the prophecy, saying that it might not be credible and that it might be the words of the God of Wushan playing tricks on the Marquis of Qi!

After all, how could the Marquis of Qi, a ruler of a state, starve to death? It's utterly absurd!

At that time, they thought it was outrageous and impossible, believing that Lord Wushan was just playing a trick on Marquis Qi!

But now...

At this moment, Duke Hui of Jin and his ministers in the hall were left with only bewilderment and disbelief.

That outrageous prophecy was actually true?

And if that's true, doesn't it mean...?

Will someone truly emerge from the clutches of destiny more than four hundred years from now?

Will he sweep across all nations and unify the world?

Duke Hui of Jin and the others were terrified and no longer dared to underestimate the prophecy spoken by the God of Wushan.

Since the prophecy about the Marquis of Qi is true, then this prophecy must also be true!

……

The State of Chu.

Yingdu.

King Cheng of Chu listened to the scout's report and was stunned. He, who had been laughing heartily, could no longer laugh.

“That guy Jiang Xiaobai actually…”

He couldn't believe it.

Back then, he didn't pay much attention to what Lord Wushan said.

They found Wushan Shenjun's words laughable and took them as a joke.

Who would have thought that this was actually true?

Even if you cracked his head open, he still wouldn't believe it was real!

The nobles and ministers of Chu in the hall looked at each other, their smiles gone, replaced by fear.

……

At the same time.

The location of the Zhou royal family.

Luo Yi.

The Zhou emperor, seated high on his throne, was also listening to the messenger's report.

The Zhou emperor's eyes showed reverence as he murmured, "Could all the miraculous powers possessed by the God of Wushan, as recorded in our royal records, be true?"

Putting everything else aside, this prophecy is absolutely correct!

For a moment, he felt a deep fear and dread towards the God of Mist Mountain.

……

Soon, Duke Mu of Qin, as well as the rulers of the states of Song, Lu, Wei, and Zheng, learned of the news and were all shocked.

They who initially found it funny will now find it impossible to laugh.

They hadn't taken the prophecy about destiny four hundred years from now seriously, but they took it very seriously.

Some rulers even recorded this prophecy deep within the royal secrets, lest future generations forget it.

After all, just because they can't use it now doesn't mean future generations can't!

Who knows, we might even be able to seize the initiative and do something based on this prophecy!

In addition to valuing the prophecy, they also began to respect and revere the God of Wushan like never before.

This deity has existed since the time of King You of Zhou!

Yes, the gods. Originally, they thought this Lord of Mist Mountain was just a local deity, a mountain god, a river god, and the like, but now they don't think so anymore.

This power of knowing one's destiny and possessing the strength to control natural disasters such as wind and rain is something that ordinary earth spirits cannot achieve.

What else could it be but a god?

Moreover, this is only a small part of the power that the God of Mist Mountain has shown. No one knows what other abilities he has!

It is very likely that he was a god who was previously unknown and whose name was unknown, and who has only been discovered by them in recent years!

As the rumors spread, some knowledgeable people naturally began to speculate about the true identity of this celestial being, the God of Mist Mountain.

Based on just a little information, historians, diviners, shamans, astrologers, and sorcerers quickly came up with all sorts of speculations.

According to the late Duke Huan of Qi, he saw a blue shadow in the dark clouds in the state of Qi that day...

So some people speculated that this Wushan God might be one of the Eastern Constellations, the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions.

The seven constellations of the east—Horn, Neck, Root, Room, Heart, Tail, and Winnowing Basket—form a blue dragon, which in legends is depicted as a green dragon.

People from various vassal states speculated wildly and felt a sense of awe.

Soon, the prophecy of the God of Wushan regarding the destiny more than four hundred years later was also called the mystery of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon, which contained the secret to unifying the world!

Whoever can solve this mystery will be able to unify all the countries and bring peace to the world!

While they were beginning to suspect something.

Prince Zhao of Qi was not idle either.

He fled to the State of Song and sought help from Duke Xiang of Song. Duke Xiang of Song sent troops to attack Qi. Upon seeing the Song army pressing on the border, the people of Qi rioted, killed Wu Kui and others, and welcomed back Crown Prince Zhao in an attempt to quell the war.

As a result, Crown Prince Zhao returned to the country and before he could officially ascend the throne, he was attacked by the other four princes.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Crown Prince Zhao, who had fled to the State of Song, fled again. Duke Xiang of Song once again sent troops to defeat the four princes, and Crown Prince Zhao finally secured his throne as Duke Xiao of Qi.

Subsequently, the coffin was placed in, the funeral was held, and the body lay in state. Duke Huan of Qi, who had been dead for nearly a year and had not yet been properly buried, was given a formal and dignified burial.

The reign of a powerful ruler has truly come to an end.

During this process, the Zhou royal family and the various vassal states focused their attention on Wushan Mountain and the Wushan God, and had no interest in the affairs of the State of Qi.

Many feudal lords, and even the Zhou emperor, went to Wushan to worship the Wushan God, hoping to receive prophecies or benefits.

Unfortunately, to their disappointment, the God of Wushan ignored them completely.

They couldn't even send someone up Wushan!

Mount Kiri is strangely framed by a thick fog.

You'll only walk a few steps before you're back down the mountain, never reaching the summit, let alone seeing the God of Mist Mountain!

Disappointed, they all returned home.

However, they did not give up. They continued to worship Wushan Zhenjun, hoping that one day they would receive the favor of this deity who was suspected to be one of the Seven Eastern Constellations.

Unfortunately, their repeated sacrifices only brought them disappointment.

On Mount Wu.

Su Chen was too lazy to pay attention to them, and focused on comprehending the secrets of the Reincarnation Dao Fruit, as well as absorbing the essence of the sun and moon to accumulate energy for his transformation body.

Time passed slowly.

Time flows like water, never stopping for anyone.

In the blink of an eye, more than 420 years have passed.

The time came to the late Warring States period, when Ying Zheng emerged and was about to unify the various states.

Su Chen has accumulated enough energy for his physical transformation.

Chapter 117 The Seven Constellations of the Azure Dragon Shine Together!

In these 420 years.

Su Chen saw many things and people.

Besides contemplating the mysteries of reincarnation in Wushan, he would occasionally sneak out of Wushan when he was bored.

Thus, by chance, he witnessed King Fuchai of Wu, who was pressing his army to force Yue to surrender.

Later, there was Goujian, the King of Yue, who, along with his wife, became a servant of King Fuchai of Wu.

He led the horse for King Fuchai of Wu, swept the floor for King Fuchai of Wu, and even tasted King Fuchai's excrement to determine his illness and so on.

Su Chen didn't know how to complain, and could only mutter that the ancients were really good at having fun.

Therefore, everyone in the Wu Kingdom looked down on King Goujian of Yue.

King Goujian of Yue kept his head down the whole time, seemingly neither angry nor contentious.

King Fuchai of Wu thought that Goujian's spine had been broken, so he let him return to his country, which led to the story of Goujian sleeping on firewood and tasting gall every day.

I watched all of this quietly.

Su Chen took a slight breath.

My first thought was, "King Goujian of Yue, this man must not be allowed to live!"

Of course, this is his perspective from the point of view of an ordinary person. From the perspective of a horned dragon, even if it lay still, King Goujian of Yue couldn't do anything to it, so it didn't matter.

The humiliation that an ordinary person would not be able to endure, yet the King of Yue was able to tolerate it so well. If he had let it go, what would have happened?

All I can say is, they must not be allowed to live!

Unfortunately, King Fuchai of Wu hadn't read enough novels; he was all talk and no action.

Su Chen observed silently.

Watching King Goujian of Yue endure ten years of hardship, I saw ministers such as Fan Li and Wen Zhong, and even the ancient beauty Xi Shi, who was sent to the State of Wu by King Goujian of Yue.

Under the influence of the beauty trap, King Fuchai of Wu gradually became addicted to pleasure, neglected state affairs, and alienated loyal ministers.

Ultimately, the Yue Kingdom launched an attack, and the Wu Kingdom suffered a crushing defeat. King Fuchai of Wu, with nowhere to turn, stood on the city wall and committed suicide.

King Goujian of Yue successfully avenged his king and became a hegemon.

As a wise man, Minister Fan Li saw through everything, knowing that once the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog will be cooked, so he retired.

Another minister, Wen Zhong, was eventually sentenced to death.

After observing the stories of the King of Wu and the King of Yue, Su Chen returned to Wushan, where he accumulated energy and occasionally went out.

In the blink of an eye, more than four hundred years have passed.

In the pitch-black night.

The bright moon and stars twinkled in the night sky.

Wushan Peak.

The bright moonlight still shines on the summit of Wushan Mountain.

While basking in the moonlight, Su Chen kept his eyes on the control panel.
