Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 185 The Decaying Great Zhou Kingdom
The Taoist master replied.

"Now, all forces in the Aldebaran star system are basically maintaining a wait-and-see attitude."

"Not only are they unwilling to join us, they are also unwilling to obey Chou Yuan's orders."

“This is actually pretty easy to understand.”

The Taoist explained the reason: "After all, there are too many people in the Aldebaran star system, so many that Chou Yuan can't manage them all."

"It's rare for all parties to not obey Chou Yuan's command, and not to go against his will or cause trouble."

...

Although the spiritual energy in the Aldebaran star system is thin, the black mist originating from unknown creatures is almost non-existent.

This makes it impossible for cultivators in the Foundation Establishment, Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages to practice.

However, Xie Shen, Yi Yuankui and Deng Bin, three cultivators in the Spiritualization Stage, were not affected at all.

After all, cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage cultivate their own spiritual consciousness.

When they practice, they only need to invade other planets and devour souls with a higher degree of compatibility.

then.

Not long after arriving at the Aldebaran star system, Deng Bin asked Xie Shenshen for the enhanced version of the Butterfly Dream Technique and began to practice hard once again.

Also.

Before starting his retreat, Deng Bin did not forget to enter the shared library to explore.

But just like Yi Yuankui and most of the people who entered.

When Deng Bin entered the shared library, the entire library was just a huge empty room. There was nothing else in it except two books on scientific cultivation methods.

Apart from Xie Shen and Li Xiu, there is no other person who can truly have an adventure in the library and obtain incredible things.

in this way.

Nearly half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In January of 6292 AD, after a lapse of three years, Xie Shen was finally able to practice the Butterfly Dream Technique again.

He sat cross-legged in the secret room.

With the help of the technique, countless star-like souls began to gradually appear before him.

Xie Shen pointed at several souls and found one that had a very high degree of compatibility with him.

next second.

The light spot was infinitely magnified in front of his eyes, and soon swallowed up the whole world.
...

"Grand Prince? Grand Prince, are you okay?"

After traveling through time, Xie Shen opened his eyes with difficulty.

What caught his eye was a young girl with a great appearance and figure, wearing a red skirt with narrow sleeves.

This woman is dressed in a very retro style.

She had her hair combed into a bun and two ponytails on both sides that fell naturally from her ears, making her look well-behaved and cute.

Seeing Xie Shen wake up, the girl seemed to be relieved and said with a look of relief: "Fortunately, fortunately, you finally woke up."

"If it was a little later, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to make it to today's ceremony."

The coming-of-age ceremony?

After hearing what the girl in ancient costume said, Xie Shen immediately searched for various useful information in the body he was currently occupying.

According to the memory fragments left in the original owner's body:
The original owner of this body was named Yan Biao, the eldest son of the current emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

According to the customs of the Great Zhou Kingdom, men are considered adults after they turn twenty.

And today happens to be Yan Biao’s 20th birthday.

Then according to the rules, the emperor should crown Yan Biao today and enthrone him as the crown prince according to the system of primogeniture.

Good guy.

After taking a rough look at the memory fragments of Yan Biao that remained in his mind, Xie Shen couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, this time he actually took over the body of a crown prince and would most likely become the emperor of the Great Zhou in the future.

This identity is simple
...In Xie Shen’s impression, the Butterfly Dream Technique can only be used on people who are seriously injured and dying.

After all, only a dying person would voluntarily sacrifice his soul and send a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage to fulfill his last wish.

Then the question comes:
Why did Yan Biao, the crown prince of the Great Zhou Kingdom, suddenly become seriously injured and on the verge of death?

Could it be that other princes committed this murder in order to fight for the throne?
Thinking of this, Xie Shen hurriedly released the spiritual consciousness in his body to bless himself.

He entered a state of introspection, trying to find any abnormalities in his body, so as to find out why Yan Biao had just been seriously injured and was on the verge of death.

But the strange thing is: the original owner Yan Biao did not have a single scar on his body, and his internal organs showed no signs of poisoning.

That's strange
The last wish left by the original owner Yan Biao before his death also puzzled Xie Shen.

First: I hope that the Great Zhou Kingdom will always be peaceful and prosperous, and that all the people will live and work in peace and contentment.

The first last wish sounds very plain and simple.

But the second wish is a bit strange:

The original owner hoped that his mother and some of the civil and military officials in the court could become normal.
In the main hall.

Seeing Xie Shen lying on the bed in silence, the maid Xiaohong asked cautiously, "Your Highness, are you okay?"

"The coming-of-age ceremony is about to begin. We must hurry to the Hall of Supreme Harmony as soon as possible."

"Let me help you change your clothes!"

Perhaps because time was tight, the maid Xiaohong took the initiative to change Xie Shen's clothes as soon as she finished speaking.

Xie Shen, who has lived for thousands of years, naturally would not feel the slightest bit ashamed about this.

He changed into a black and red crown robe with the help of his maid.

The crown has patterns of the sun, moon, stars, and cities, as well as golden dragons and fire on its left and right. It is a formal dress specially worn during grand ceremonies and sacrifices.

It looks so impressive.

After putting on the crown and robes, Xie Shen, surrounded by a group of servants, soon arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

But in the hall:
There was an emperor wearing a dragon robe sitting on the main throne.

There was also a queen wearing a phoenix robe, standing silently beside him.

Further down.

Civil and military officials stood on both sides of the hall.

Seeing Xie Shen's arrival, all the officials bowed and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

According to the memories left by the original owner, Xie Shen, the eldest prince, returned the greetings to all the officials in a proper manner as per the custom.

Then he faced the emperor.

As the eldest prince, Xie Shen had to kneel and kowtow when meeting the emperor on such occasions.

But Xie Shen was, after all, a cultivator in the Spiritual Transformation Stage who had lived for a thousand years. Naturally, it was impossible for him to kneel down and kowtow to a mortal emperor.

So he just bowed to the emperor and said respectfully: "Zhong Zibiao greets His Majesty the Father."

Although Xie Shen's courtesy was not adequate, the emperor did not delve into the matter too deeply for some unknown reason.

He waved at Xie Shen and said impatiently, "No need to be polite."

talking.

Suddenly he turned and looked not far away at a Taoist priest wearing a black Yin-Yang Tai Chi fish robe.

The emperor asked him, "Since the Grand Master is already here, why don't we start the enthronement ceremony right away?"

National Division?

It was seen that before the emperor did anything, he would first ask the so-called great national teacher.

Out of curiosity, Xie Shen released his spiritual consciousness and swept it over the national teacher who was dressed as a Taoist priest.

With his spiritual sense, he quickly discovered that although the national teacher looked like an ordinary person, his internal organs had long been decayed.

And it’s not just the national teacher.

The empress who stood silently beside the emperor, as well as nearly half of the civil and military officials in the hall, also had their internal organs decayed.

This country has a big problem
