Chapter 1229: Startling Steps: The Fourth Prince
A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

Accompanied by Concubine Li, Su Mingzhe practiced [Burning Incense Jade Book] every day.

[The Jade Book of Incense Burning] is originally the mental method of the Incense Burning Valley in the plane of "Zhu Xian". It requires the body's yang energy to be the core in order to cultivate the soul.

At that time, I brought hundreds of "Supreme Realm" strongmen from the Zhuxian plane to ascend to the fairy and demon world and lived on Qingyun Star.

There is no method of cultivating immortals in Fenxiang Valley, so in order to continue practicing, one can only take the initiative to integrate into Qingyun Sect.

As Fenxiang Valley became a branch of Qingyun Sect, [Fenxiang Jade Book] also became the Qingyun Sect's practice method.

In the "Zhu Xian" plane, Yun Yilan, who has the highest cultivation level in Fenxiang Valley, is at the Yuyang realm.

In the world of immortals and demons, with the combined strength of everyone, the two major realms of Li Yang and Yan Yang were derived from the three major realms of Shao Yang, Zhi Yang and Yu Yang.

When one cultivates to the Li Yang realm, his cultivation is equivalent to that of a Golden Immortal.

When one cultivates to the Yan Yang realm, his cultivation is equivalent to that of a Daluo Jinxian.

Now a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Su Mingzhe's cultivation successfully broke through to the Yan Yang Realm.

After consolidating his cultivation, Su Mingzhe brought Concubine Li out of the secluded valley, originally just wanting to take a stroll.

As a result, after the two of them had just gone out for a walk, they encountered countless Jinxiu messengers who were chasing after a young man named "Liu Xiu" among the people.

After a little inquiry, Su Mingzhe knew what had happened.

More than a hundred years ago, he and Concubine Li had been living in seclusion to practice Buddhism.

Liu Zhi was emperor for twenty years and then passed the throne to Crown Prince Liu Shan.

Twenty years after Liu Shan ascended the throne, he passed the throne to Crown Prince Liu Ying.

Before Liu Ying, the Han Dynasty had five emperors, namely Gaozu, Liu Xu, Liu Ke, Liu Zhi and Liu Shan, with a total reign of more than 120 years.

All five Han emperors were diligent in their government affairs, and their civil and military officials were relatively loyal.

As the total registered population has surged to 100 million, the cultural and economic levels have made great progress.

However, when the sixth emperor, Liu Ying, the son of Liu Shan, first ascended the throne, he performed quite well under the restraint of the empress dowager.

However, after the empress dowager passed away, Liu Ying immediately issued an imperial decree, demanding the dethronement of the original empress and crown prince, and replacing them with his favorite concubine as empress and her son as crown prince.

All the civil and military officials in the court made a desperate appeal, hoping that Liu Ying would revoke the imperial edict.

Seeing that civil and military officials were resisting, Liu Ying simply wielded his butcher knife. In just five years, he killed more than sixty court ministers and confiscated the property and exterminated the clans of sixteen hereditary nobles.

Everyone in the court and the public was frightened by Liu Ying's cruelty and brutality, and they all started to act like ostriches.

Just when the world dared to be angry but not to speak out, Liu Ying soon exhausted his body due to indulging in pleasure and died early of illness.

Afterwards, Crown Prince Liu De succeeded to the throne.

As the seventh emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu De was considered diligent and managed to control the situation.

However, Liu De's reign was not long. He died before he was forty years old, becoming the shortest-lived emperor since the founding of the Han Dynasty.

From then on, five Han emperors died in less than fifty years.

As the emperors ascended the throne at younger and younger ages, the power of the court was, as a last resort, controlled by relatives of the emperor and eunuchs in turn.

As a result, the whole world became a mess and the people were living in misery.

The person in power today is Wang Mang, the nephew of the Empress Dowager.

Wang Mang was regarded as the greatest sage of all time by civil and military officials because of his implementation of various reforms, such as "relief for disaster victims" and "abolition of slavery". Now he has been named "fake emperor" and the people call him "regent emperor".

"Wang Mang has come out again... Could this guy also be a time traveler?"

Su Mingzhe thought of the historical evaluation of Wang Mang, and the first thing he wanted to do was to go to Xianyang to find out the truth.

The idea of ​​going to Xianyang just came into his mind. For some reason, as soon as he was about to leave, he felt as if a great terror was coming.

This sense of crisis was even stronger than when he wanted to kill Yi Xiaochuan and Gao Yao.

In other words, the heaven of this plane was actually monitoring Su Mingzhe, not allowing him to take action and interfere with time and space. Su Mingzhe looked up at the blue sky, and finally he could only feel indignant, pulling Concubine Li back to the valley and continuing his retreat.

During this retreat, hundreds of years passed in the blink of an eye.

The realm of [Burning Incense Jade Book] was upgraded from the Yan Yang realm to the Zhi Yang realm.

Su Mingzhe's cultivation also improved from the early stage of Daluo Jinxian to the late stage.

This time of leaving the country was at the end of the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China.

Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, was ready to ascend the throne.

Because of the warning from heaven, Su Mingzhe could only continue to practice in silence.

Another few hundred years passed.

When Su Mingzhe upgrades the [Burning Incense Jade Book] to the 'Pure Yang Mirror', his cultivation level will be equal to that of Hunyuan Jinxian (quasi-sage).

At this time, Zhao Song moved south.

Su Mingzhe wanted to come out, but the warning from heaven was still there.

However, Su Mingzhe felt that the threat posed by the Heavenly Dao was no longer that strong.

Despite this feeling, Su Mingzhe did not come out of seclusion, but continued to practice in seclusion.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years have passed.

Su Mingzhe continued to retreat, and finally raised the realm of [Burning Incense Jade Book] to the 'Sun' realm.

The cultivation level of 'Sunglasses' is roughly equivalent to the middle stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal. By exerting the magical power of controlling the heavens and the earth, he can transform himself into a blazing sun.

At this point, Su Mingzhe could clearly sense that this plane was an incomplete second-level plane.

The strength of the Heavenly Dao in this plane is about that of the Great Perfection of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

If the two sides fight, although the Plane Heavenly Dao has the upper hand, Su Mingzhe can also ensure that he can retreat safely.

At this point.

Only then did Su Mingzhe turn his mind toward the sky again.

With strength comes face.

The Plane Heavenly Dao noticed Su Mingzhe's cultivation as a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and after a while, passed some information to him.

After Su Mingzhe absorbed the information, he immediately understood the situation of the Heavenly Dao and the Planes:

"It's already the plane of the TV series 'Startling by Each Step'..."

"Zhang Xiao just possessed Maertai Ruoxi... According to the timeline, it is now the seventh day of the seventh month in the forty-third year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi."

"It turns out that the Heavenly Dao of this plane constantly brings people from the future back to ancient times in order to absorb and refine the 'power of reincarnation' in them, hoping to condense the law of reincarnation."

"Once the heavenly way of this plane condenses the law of reincarnation, it will be able to complete itself and upgrade from the second-level plane to the third-level plane."

"When the plane is upgraded, as the heavenly way of the plane, the strength will also rise. From the perfection of the Primordial Golden Immortal, it will leap to the strength of the Heavenly Way Saint of the Primordial World!"

"No wonder Heaven didn't allow me to kill Gao Yao and Yi Xiaochuan, and also didn't allow me to drastically modify history..."

Su Mingzhe thought for a moment and began to communicate with the Heavenly Dao.

If you have strength, you have face.

The Plane Heavenly Dao was also afraid that Su Mingzhe would cause trouble for him, so he started making all kinds of promises.

Su Mingzhe took the opportunity to ask for an exorbitant price.

After some bargaining, the two sides reached an agreement.

Based on the principle of 'major trends cannot be changed, but minor trends can be reversed', Su Mingzhe can make one more move.

"The next one should be the Nine Dragons' Battle for Succession... Then I choose the Fourth Prince Yinzhen!"
