People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

As Cao Ze reinforced the seal, the Grand Elder of Mount Shu murmured, "Could he be the one our clan's Holy Maiden is waiting for?"

If we were to discuss the greatest secrets of Mount Shu, the first would be the seal of Yu Yuan, and the second would be the Holy Maiden of Mount Shu.

Her name is Yu.

When she was born, according to custom, people prayed for her and performed divination. Only then did they realize her sacredness, that she was born because of the will of Heaven, and thus became the Holy Maiden of Mount Shu.

Only a few people knew about this, and the clansmen all thought that this clansman named Shi Lan was just an ordinary female guard of Yu Yuan.

Only those who know the inside story understand Xiao Yu's special nature.

After Cao Ze finished reinforcing the seal deep within the Abyss and emerged, the Grand Elder of Mount Shu said, "I still do not know your name, young friend."

"Junior Cao Ze."

The Grand Elder of Mount Shu said, "Young friend Cao, I have a request that I cannot refuse. I wonder if you would grant it?"

Cao Ze said with a half-smile, "Elder, please speak your mind. There's no need to be so polite."

He had just reinforced the seal on Yu Yuan when the Grand Elder of Shu Mountain made an unreasonable request. It was either a good thing or a sign of his lack of discretion.

The Grand Elder of Mount Shu said with a hint of worry, "Young friend, you may not know about the Holy Maiden of Mount Shu."

Cao Ze became interested; he had always been fascinated by saintesses, fairies, and goddesses.

"tell me the story."

The Grand Elder of Mount Shu recounted a rather miraculous event.

Cao Ze was surprised: "There's such a thing?"

He didn't expect that Xiao Yu, or rather Shi Lan, who was supposed to be born much later in the original story, had already been born, but had been in a deep sleep and had not yet awakened.

"I dare not deceive you."

Cao Ze thought for a moment and said, "I understand. I'll come again when I have time."

The Grand Elder of Mount Shu is not wrong to say that he is the chosen one, after all, the Heavenly Heart Mark is in his hands.

After leaving Yuyuan, Cao Ze returned to Xianyang.

It was already late March, close to Ying Zheng's coming-of-age ceremony.

This was also the time when the five nations formed an alliance and mobilized their troops.

The world is in turmoil.

Apart from a few top experts who know about the changes in the world, most ordinary people are still completely unaware of them.

Cao Ze, who should have been busy as an imperial censor, seemed to have nothing to do at this moment.

If Cao Ze hadn't been an imperial censor, some might have doubted that he would even have had the opportunity to attend the coming-of-age ceremony in Yongcheng.

Cao Ze didn't care about this at all, and focused on his cultivation, only wanting to break through to the Immortal God Realm.

If it were any other peak Celestial Realm expert, it would be impossible for them to break through to the Immortal God Realm in a short period of time, even if their spiritual energy were to recover!

But Cao Ze is different. With the mark of the Heavenly Heart, he has an almost inexhaustible supply of energy.

Furthermore, his battle with Chi You under the control of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden allowed him to experience realms beyond the Immortal God Realm, making him no longer unfamiliar with it and enabling him to cultivate with ease.

April 18th, the third day before King Zheng of Qin's coming-of-age ceremony.

The nobles and officials in Xianyang were making preparations for their journey to Yongcheng the next day.

Suddenly, the heavens and earth resounded together.

Countless auspicious rays of light descended from the heavens.

Even more awe-inspiring is that the entire landscape of the Nine Provinces and Eight Deserts, spanning tens of thousands of miles, is suspended above Xianyang.

Even if it's just a phantom, it's enough to be considered an unprecedented phenomenon.

Cao Ze burst forth from the light, and countless divine rays surged from his body, mingling with the auspicious celestial clouds in the sky.

The voice of the Great Dao resounded like a great bell, shaking the heavens. Countless illusory figures of immortals and gods appeared, and endless living beings bowed in worship.

Ordinary cultivators who break through to the Immortal God Realm would never exhibit such an unusual phenomenon.

However, Cao Ze, who obtained the Heavenly Heart Mark and completely merged with it when breaking through to the Immortal God Realm, was different.

Rather than saying he broke through to the realm of immortals and gods, it would be more accurate to say that he ascended to the throne of the world's ruler.

Countless divine lights descended from the heavens, showering down upon Xianyang.

Ordinary people who have never cultivated themselves, when bathed in divine light, feel completely comfortable and instinctively call out to the Goddess of the Nine Heavens for protection.

However, cultivators who had practiced were greatly shocked when they were bathed in divine light and instantly broke through their current realm!

But the strange phenomena did not stop there!

Before long, lotus flowers bloomed in the void, immortals and gods chanted in unison, and the heavens and earth trembled, as if welcoming the return of the world's master.

Cao Ze climbed step by step into the sky, his hands behind his back, gazing up at the heavens.

From that moment on, he shed his mortal form and became a deity!

At the same time, he is the master of the world, wielding power!

Inside the Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng was startled. Looking at the tall figure in the sky, he frowned deeply.

Although he couldn't see the appearance of the person in the sky, he always felt that the other person gave him a strange yet familiar feeling.

"Who could he be...?"

Ying Zheng muttered to himself.

Gai Nie, who had already returned, said, "Your Majesty, should we investigate?"

"This is an immortal, whose identity cannot be verified."

Ying Zheng shook his head and refused.

As his coming-of-age ceremony approached, five states joined forces to attack Qin.

With so many things going on, he didn't want to cause any more trouble.

Cao Ze looked at the grand scene he had created and felt somewhat helpless.

He is, after all, a low-key person.

However, in order to completely integrate into the Heavenly Heart Mark, he had no other choice.

Cao Ze had a sudden thought.

In the blink of an eye, the sky and the air were clear and bright, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

At this point, the Qin's World could be said to have become his private property.

The things that I was worried about and felt were difficult were easily resolved.

He can do whatever he wants and play however he wants.

This is the power of the world's ruler!

Author's Closing Remarks:

The book was originally planned to be completed in about 25 million words, but the second half of 2025 disrupted all plans.

Buying a house and decorating it left me with almost no energy to write.

Ugh!

I still have to pay the mortgage. Although it's only 2000 yuan a month, it's still a huge burden. (The novel says it costs around 4,000 yuan a month.)

I have to go out to work next month, so this project has to end early.

The remaining foreshadowing, plot holes, romantic storylines, and female characters who haven't been pursued yet will be addressed in side stories once I'm in the factory.

Side story options:

Zhao Ji was pregnant and attended Ying Zheng's coming-of-age ceremony with a large belly. Cao Ze immediately "confessed" to the situation!

Jing Ni's second child.

The humiliation of the Moon Goddess's sister-in-law.

There are also Ya Fei, Yan Fei, Shi Lan, Xiao Meng...

Write as many side stories as possible.
