Checking In for Sixty Years, From Puppet Emperor to Heavenly Emperor – 101-150

Zhou An woke up one morning as the Emperor of the Qianyuan Empire. He initially thought he could revel in the company of beautiful women and wield absolute power over the world. However, he discovered he was merely a puppet emperor, a pawn used by the Empress Dowager to maintain stability before her own ascension to the throne. He was expendable, liable to be discarded at any moment. On the empire’s borders, foreign tribes were restless, taking advantage of the new emperor’s lack of authority, perceived weakness, and the ensuing chaos within the court and the country to invade. They clamored to execute the “incompetent ruler” and “save” the people of Qianyuan from their plight. Demons wreaked havoc, ghosts ran rampant, sects proliferated, and righteous-demonic wars ravaged the land, causing widespread suffering. Zhou An activated his cheat, the Map of Mountains and Rivers. Lighting up the harem map, he obtained the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Records. Lighting up the main palace map, he obtained the Qianyuan Dragon Armor. Lighting up the Eastern Palace map, he obtained the Son of Heaven Swordplay. Lighting up the Western Palace map, he obtained the Universe Steps. Lighting up the entire imperial palace map, he obtained the True Dragon Energy.
