May 28, 1896.
A date precise to the year, month, and day had been carved onto the coffin of King Lu Shang from a thousand years ago!
Zhang Lin had no idea at all how shocked everyone was upon hearing this date!
Such a recent time—it had only been about a century since then!
The date struck a far deeper chord in people's hearts than a span of a thousand years would have.

The fantasy of the "Celestial Empire" in his heart was utterly shattered!
And many, many other momentous events happened that year.
