The Xuanzheng Hall of the Han Dynasty Imperial Palace in Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty, Lord Changsun and the Ling family from the Shengyuan Dynasty seek an audience!"
Wei Zhongxian entered the Xuanzheng Hall, looking at Yang Hao, who was seated on the human king's throne, and said respectfully.
Silence!
Wei Zhongxian, who was reporting with his head bowed, suddenly felt sweat bead on his forehead.
Several breaths had passed since he reported, and Yang Hao, seated on the throne, had kept his eyes closed and remained silent!
Wei Zhongxian tilted his head slightly and looked at Chen Tang, who stood calmly beside him. Chen Tang gave him a slight nod, signaling Wei Zhongxian not to panic!
Yang Hao did not respond to Wei Zhongxian's report. His mind was currently being flooded with a massive amount of information about faith points and kill points.
Yang Hao smiled slightly, "It seems the battlefield in the Yan Yang Dynasty was quite fruitful!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the three major powers of the Yan Yang Dynasty, Xiao Beilong, Zuo Zheng, and Zuo Lengchan, have all been slain by the heroes of the Great Han!"
"Ding! The capital of the Yan Yang Dynasty has fallen!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the Great Han has basically occupied the territory of the Yan Yang Dynasty!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining seventy million faith points!"
"Ding! Alert the host, the national destiny artifacts, the Nine Cauldrons, the Human King Tablet, and the Xuanyuan Sword, will automatically draw half of the faith points to consolidate national destiny!" Su Dan Novel Network
"Buzz~~"
As the Nine Cauldrons of national destiny devoured the massive faith points, a thousand-zhang five-clawed golden dragon of national destiny soared from the ancestral temple!
"Roar!!"
The two-thousand-zhang five-clawed golden dragon of national destiny instantly increased by another thousand zhang, joyfully coiling above the imperial palace!
"That is!"
"The national destiny of this Great Han is extraordinary!!"
Ling Xuan and the other two stared in shock, gazing at the five-clawed golden dragon of national destiny coiling in the void, their hearts churning with immense waves.
"Ding! The host currently has forty-five million faith points remaining!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining two million six hundred thousand kill points!"
Looking at the faith points under his command, Yang Hao smiled wryly and shook his head. It was still far from enough to upgrade the Nine Cauldrons to level four.
The Yan Yang Dynasty had been successfully conquered. According to the previously formulated strategic plan, the next step would be to advance towards the slightly stronger Tian Feng Dynasty and Ao Long Dynasty, which possessed low-level Spirit Sea realm cultivators.
"System, upgrade the Barracks level!"
"Ding! Ten million faith points deducted successfully!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the Barracks has been successfully upgraded to level three (Level three Barracks: The cultivation time for Great Han soldiers in the Barracks has increased to two months, allowing them to enter the Xiantian realm in one step!)"
Enter the Xiantian realm in one step!
Yang Hao looked at the detailed information in surprise. The highest cultivation among his soldiers was in the Trapped Formation Camp, at the first layer of Xiantian!
A Xiantian army, perhaps even the elite armies of top dynasties, would not be much more than this!!
Forget it!
System, summon!
Yang Hao then commanded the Samsara Xuanhuang Pagoda. The Tian Feng Dynasty and the Ao Long Dynasty were not comparable to the insignificant Yan Yang Dynasty. Both of these dynasties had cultivators in the Spirit Sea realm.
Currently, the Great Han's top fighting power was only Chen Tang, who had just been summoned, and Bi Xi could not lead troops into battle!
"Ding! Two million six hundred thousand kill points deducted successfully!"
"Ding! Twenty-six thousand strands of Samsara power successfully exchanged!"
"Ding! Thirteen thousand strands of Samsara power deducted successfully!"
"Buzz!!"
Dense golden light surged into the Samsara Xuanhuang Pagoda!!
Yang Hao narrowed his eyes. Ten thousand strands of Samsara power had summoned Chen Tang at the third layer of the Spirit Sea. This summoning had directly cost him thirteen thousand strands of Samsara power!!
The Samsara Xuanhuang Pagoda emanated Dao sounds, its aura grand and majestic, its heavenly sounds mysterious and ancient. The entire pagoda was suffused with golden light, which suddenly burst forth.
Intricate carvings of figures on the pagoda body, their golden light shimmering!
A vast silver river unfolded, time flowed, historical scrolls turned layer by layer, starlight receded like sand, and banners fluttered proudly!
Buzz buzz!
The river of time instantly arrived at the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms period.
A large character "Sun" imprinted itself into view.
Sun Wu!
Yang Hao watched the banner of Sun Wu flutter in the wind and murmured, "Under Sun Wu, the civil officials and fierce generals were also extremely formidable. Zhou Yu, Lu Xun... these were all figures of that era!!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully summoning the ancient hero, the Tiger Minister of Jiang Biao - Gan Ning, through the cycle of reincarnation!"
Gan Ning!
Yang Hao's eyes flashed with brilliance as he looked at a figure stepping out of the river of history amidst a beam of light!
Yang Hao whispered.
Whether it was Gan Ning in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or in official history, he was highly praised!
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms bore witness to this with a poem: "The war drums sounded, shaking the earth, the Wu army's presence brought sorrow to ghosts and gods! A hundred feathers pierced Cao family's stronghold, all saying Gan Ning was a tiger general."
Another poem read: "Ba Commandery's Gan Xingba, on the Yangtze with a brocade boat. Guan Gong dared not cross, Cao Cao constantly worried. Raiding camps with light cavalry, drinking from large cups. The divine crow manifested, eternal incense for a thousand autumns!"
To be able to make Guan Yu, who viewed all heroes under heaven as mere mice, avoid his sharpness, though not on land, still demonstrated Gan Ning's formidable strength.
"View Gan Ning's information!"
"Name: Gan Ning"
"Courtesy Name: Xingba"
"Dynasty: Late Eastern Han, Three Kingdoms period"
"Cultivation: Spirit Sea Seventh Layer!"
"Cultivation Technique: Ba Yong Gang Jue"
"Accompanying Troop Type: Elite Troop - One Hundred Thousand Brocade Sail Army!"
Experience: In his youth, Gan Ning was notorious in the region, forming a river bandit force to rob boats and property, flaunting luxury, and was known as the Brocade Sail Bandit.
In his youth, he stopped robbing, diligently studied the various schools of thought, and once served as the Shu Commandery official. He later served under Liu Biao and Huang Zu but was not heavily utilized.
In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Gan Ning led his troops to defect to Sun Quan and began to achieve great deeds. He once strongly advised Sun Quan to attack Huang Zu and seize Chu Pass, accompanied Zhou Yu to attack Cao Ren and capture Yiling, confronted Guan Yu with Lu Su in Yiyang, and accompanied Sun Quan to attack Wan City and capture Zhu Guang.
He led over a hundred men to raid Cao's camp at night, returning with dozens of heads. In the Battle of Xiaoyaojin, he protected Sun Quan as he galloped his horse across the ford, escaping death.
Sun Quan once said: "Cao Cao has Zhang Liao, and I have Gan Xingba; we are evenly matched." Lü Meng once said: "The world is not yet settled, and a fierce general like Ning is hard to come by; he should be tolerated."
Although Gan Ning was rough, fierce, violent, and bloodthirsty, even breaking promises and defying orders, he was also cheerful and magnanimous, brave and resourceful, looked down on wealth, respected scholars, treated his soldiers generously, and was deeply supported by them.
Chen Shou listed him in his historical records as a "Tiger Minister of Jiang Biao."
Yang Hao nodded in satisfaction as he reviewed the information, then instructed, "Continue!"
Looking at the remaining thirteen thousand strands of Samsara power, Yang Hao's anticipation grew.
"Buzz~~"
"Ding! Thirteen thousand strands of Samsara power deducted successfully!"
"Ding! The system begins summoning!"
At that moment, Dao sounds filled the air, like the roar of angry gods. A figure gradually appeared on the body of the Samsara Xuanhuang Pagoda, accompanied by bursts of golden light.
Swoosh!
Splash!
A five-colored starlit river flashed, stars shifted and turned, shining brilliantly!
Buzz~~
The Samsara Xuanhuang Pagoda resounded with the great Dao!
The historical scrolls turned layer by layer, starlight receded like sand, and banners fluttered proudly!
