   [This is entirely my own writing, based on extensive research and consultation of numerous sources, including visits to various Taoist temples and religious affairs bureaus. The framework was prepared over a year.] Having long been engaged in religious history research, I strictly adhere to historical facts such as the *Veritable Records of the Ming Taizu*, and have meticulously examined Taoist classics and local gazetteers, including the *Taoist Canon*, *Longhushan Zhi*, and *Maoshan Zhi*. The content is extremely rigorous. The story begins in the 22nd year of the Hongwu reign (1389) and connects to many real historical events, such as the murder of Prince Lu, the self-immolation of Prince Tan, Lan Yu's conquest of the local chieftains, the rebellion of Li Shanchang, and Prince Yan's northern expedition, among others.
