The story begins with a power struggle among nine princes, but the protagonist doesn't vie for

Luo Jiahao was reborn into his mother's womb. Fortunately, his predecessor knew some breathing techniques and retained a trace of innate energy, allowing him to open his Ren and Du meridians ahead of time. After birth, he discovered that he had arrived in ancient times, but not in the dynasty he remembered. In this life, he was named Luo Zhaoheng, and he was a prince, ranking eleventh among the princes. From the snippets of conversation from the palace maids, eunuchs, and wet nurses, he learned that his father, Emperor Xuanxi, was quite powerful, and his older brothers were also outstanding! They were truly remarkable individuals!
Luo Jiahao, who was reborn as Luo Zhaoheng, was very panicked, fearing that he would be humanely destroyed by some good brother or concubine.
Thinking of this, Luo Zhaoheng felt no desire to nurse, fearing he was drinking poisoned milk! He always felt that everyone was a treacherous subject trying to harm him!
And so, Luo Zhaoheng lived in fear until the age of three. On that day, he happened to meet Qingsong Daoist, the head of the Qingcheng Sect, who was visiting the palace. The two had a pleasant conversation. Later, for reasons unknown, Qingsong Daoist taught the Qingcheng Sect's ultimate martial art, Crane Cry Nine Heavens Divine Skill, to the three-year-old Luo Zhaoheng.
Luo Zhaoheng thought he had great fortune, but little did he know that all of this was being observed by someone with ulterior motives.
Originally, Master Qingsong was to be forced by Emperor Xuanxi to stay in the capital for three to five years to preach to him. However, on the third day after Qingsong passed on the Qingcheng Sect's supreme martial art, the Crane's Cry Nine Heavens Divine Skill, to Luo Zhaoheng, he was released and returned to Qingcheng Mountain.
Having obtained the manual, Luo Zhaoheng began meditating and circulating his internal energy, following Qingsong's previous explanation.
Because Luo Zhaoheng had already opened up his Ren and Du meridians, his progress was rapid. Gradually, Luo Zhaoheng's mindset changed; in this life, he only wanted to live longer...
