Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

Throughout the long history of the Nine Realms, events such as celestial phenomena and great calamities have often been given specific meanings.

In many cases, these unusual phenomena are seen as a manifestation of the emperor's virtue.

Auspicious omens from heaven signify the emperor's wisdom, while great calamities indicate the emperor's moral failings.

In the Nine Realms where immortals and gods truly exist, celestial phenomena cannot be said to be entirely useless, but they certainly have little to do with the change of dynasties.

The current state of affairs is due to both the limited understanding of the general public and the deliberate guidance of certain individuals.

The descent of a meteorite and the cataclysmic collapse of the heavens—such a catastrophe is bound to be exploited by those with ulterior motives.

The news that the emperor was immoral and that the Great Qi Dynasty was doomed spread widely for more than a decade after the great calamity.

From grand mansions to humble streets and alleys.

With the help of those who were interested, the news spread to all parts of Daqi at an extremely fast pace.

Nowadays, even farmers in the fields and children playing around have heard similar remarks.

Throughout the entire Great Qi, there was a chorus of mourning.

After more than a decade of recuperation, ambitious individuals who had long been unable to contain themselves stepped onto the stage of history.

……

The 70th year of the Enlightenment.

Xuantian Pavilion simultaneously released the latest Nine Realms Immortal God Ranking across the world.

In the new rankings, Mu An surpassed Lao Tian Shi to take the top spot.

The ranking of the top ten in the Nine Realms Immortal God Ranking has also undergone significant changes.

The number one under heaven—the Lord of the Starfall Domain, the Supreme Saint of Heaven and Earth, the Five Elements True Lord.

The Second Under Heaven – The Master of Four Symbols Mountain, the Supreme Saint of Heaven and Earth, the One True Man.

Fourth in the world – Wu Mengdao, the master of Yunmeng Terrace and the Sage of Landscape Painting.

The fifth strongest in the world—the sacred beast of the Tianming Domain, the Nine Heavens Thunder Qilin.

The tenth in the world—the leader of the Crimson Fire Sect (formerly the Blood Robe Sect), and the Crimson Fire Demon Lord of the Yin Extreme Domain.

In the same year, the Nine Realms Divine Sword Ranking was updated.

Liuyun (Five Luminaries Divine Sword) surpassed the Humanity Holy Sword Qiming Sword and topped the list of divine swords.

……

The 75th year of the Qiming era.

Jiaozhou suffered a severe drought, and the imperial court was unable to provide disaster relief, causing the people to be displaced and have nowhere to go.

Local powerful families seized the opportunity, opening their long-prepared granaries to recruit displaced people and train armies.

The Zhu family, the most powerful family in Jiaozhou, raised the banner of "the emperor is without virtue" and started a rebellion.

In the same year, Binzhou, Qizhou, Lianzhou, Luzhou, and Muzhou followed closely behind.

Local forces in the five prefectures successively launched rebellions in the name of the emperor's lack of virtue, the need to restore order, and the establishment of a new ruler.

In order to gain the upper hand, the forces that launched the rebellion all brought the sons of the Jun family into their homes in advance, treating them as puppets and making them their rulers.

The Great Qi Dynasty has continued for over a thousand years, and the Jun family lineage is found throughout the world.

It was easy for various rebel armies to find members of the Jun family who met the conditions for succession. Although the right of succession was relatively late, it was enough to provide them with a righteous cause for their rebellion.

In just one year, six rebel kings emerged, vying for control of the country.

……

April, the 76th year of the Qiming era.

Under the leadership of Wan Shu, the Datong Dao launched a northern expedition.

Wan Shu's disciple, Tian Ming, led the main force, centered on Changzhou, heading north towards Qi'an.

Despite being a disciple whom Wan Shu took in out of pity, Tian Ming brought Wan Shu a great surprise.

Whether it was his talent for cultivation, his understanding of literature and the Way, or even his communication with the "Book of Great Harmony," Tianming demonstrated exceptional talent.

During the teaching process, Tianming was even able to draw inferences from one instance to another and point out the problems in Wanshu's words.

Moreover, Tianming is extremely perceptive and can always detect changes in Wanshu's mood immediately, offering comfort time and time again when she is sad.

Wan Shu had no children, and the longer she spent with Tian Ming, the more she cared for him.

From initially providing normal upbringing to later doing everything she could to support him, Wan Shu, all alone, had come to regard Tian Ming as her own child.

With the massive influx of resources from the Great Unity Path, Tianming cultivates both literary and martial arts, simultaneously practicing the methods of both.

On the path of literature and Tao, Tianming comprehended the righteous spirit at the age of ten, could refute a great Confucian scholar at the age of fourteen, stepped into the innate realm of literature and Tao at the age of sixteen, and had an epiphany about the path ahead at the age of twenty-four, entering the realm of literature and Tao as a human being.

Although Tianming is slightly inferior in martial arts, he has reached the pinnacle of the Innate Realm. In just a few more years, he will be able to break through to the Martial Saint Realm with his physical body.

Aside from his talent in cultivation, Tianming is also an exceptional genius in military strategy.

Since the Northern Expedition, he has accurately predicted the movements of the imperial army on several occasions, cleverly set ambushes, and won one victory after another.

To date, Tianming's Datong army has fought sixteen battles, large and small, against the imperial court, and has never been defeated.

……

In July of the same year, Princess Bai Xi of Southern Xinjiang attained the status of a terrestrial immortal through the Way of the Four Seasons, becoming the third terrestrial immortal in Southern Xinjiang.

In August, the elderly King Bai Qingming of Southern Xinjiang abdicated, and Bai Xi took over the position of King of Southern Xinjiang. Military and political power was completely handed over to Ye Lin, the son-in-law of the Bai family.

More than sixty years ago, Ye Lin's teahouse in Shuzhou City had been open for less than half a year when Bai Xi and his men blocked the door.

There was no other reason; Bai Xi just felt something was off the more she thought about it.

This guy surnamed Ye seems to have some kind of quirk; wherever he goes, women are drawn to him.

Even if you send people to guard it, all sorts of unexpected coincidences can happen, making it virtually impossible to prevent.

At the time, Bai Xi wasn't quite sure whether she liked Ye Lin or not.

But she knew that Ye Lin had taken advantage of her in every way possible at the teahouse, and that they were indeed very comfortable together.

Bai Xi had an idea as soon as she thought about it.

This scoundrel has already taken advantage of everything, and now he dares to flirt with other women?

Break all his legs!

The ever-domineering Bai Xi clapped her hands and made a decision.

Whether he likes it or not, let's bring him back to the manor first.

How could just anyone take advantage of Bai Xi?

No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. I'll catch him and give him a good beating first!

After a while, and after Ye Lin was beaten up several times and caused a lot of trouble, the two naturally got married.

Thanks to Bai Xi's strong support, Ye Lin's own talent and hard work, and a little bit of coincidence.

Over the past sixty years, Ye Lin has won over countless powerful figures in southern Xinjiang and gained unanimous recognition from all levels of the region, becoming the de facto chief strategist of southern Xinjiang.

In September, Ye Lin personally led an army of three million men, divided into five routes, to attack Daqi, aiming to seize the world.

Every man has the ambition to conquer the world, and Ye Lin is no exception.

Although Ye Lin lives off Bai Xi every day, he also has his own ambitions.

Where is the excitement of being the King of Southern Xinjiang compared to being an Empress?

Since we've already traveled through time, let's have the most exciting adventures!
