"Ding! Congratulations to the host for summoning worldly heroes Yuwen Chengdu, Wang Jian, Gao Chong, and Sun Bin, successfully condensing four Emperor's Mandates, controlling ninety-four Emperor's Mandates!"
...
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for summoning worldly heroes Zhuge Liang, Le Yi, and Ou Ye Zi, successfully condensing four Emperor's Mandates, controlling fifty-four Emperor's Mandates!"
"Ding! Today, a summon can be performed!"
"Ding! Today's opening is successful, the host has two summon opportunities!"
"Summon!"
After stabilizing his realm and feeling the immense power of the half-step transcendence, it was a pity that the realm of transcendence had not yet been confirmed. From the Origin Tower mentioned by the system earlier, the key to the realm of transcendence lay within this Origin Tower!
"Ding! Commencing the summon of ancient heroes!"
"Weng~~"
"Weng~~"
At this moment, Yang Hao closed his eyes. His primordial spirit entered the ninth level of the Reincarnation Profound Yellow Tower from the depths of his soul sea, stepping onto the rolling silver river. Fifteen statues of heroes now had six statues flashing with golden light, brilliantly radiant!
As the summon opportunities were deducted, countless golden lights appeared above the silver river. Golden streams of light streaked across the silver river. At this moment, one of the statues vibrated, absorbing myriad golden lights from the boundless silver river!
The integration of golden light caused the surface of the statue to peel away. That statue began to emit dazzling, extremely dazzling light!
Beneath the golden radiance, the figure of that hero was quite tall but very thin, with a hunched back. He held a golden whip in his hand.
Yang Hao looked at the golden whip. For someone to appear at this level and still hold a golden whip, it was likely only the founder of the military school, revered as the Ancestor of War, Taigong Jiang Ziya!
At this moment, on the fourth level of the Reincarnation Profound Yellow Tower, a river of history roared open. That golden statue of a hero emerged as a figure, flashing and charging into the fourth level of the Reincarnation Profound Yellow Tower.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully summoning the peerless scholar of the world from the river of history - the Ancestor of War - Jiang Ziya!!"
Jiang Ziya!
Late bloomer!
Assisted King Wu in defeating King Zhou of Shang and establishing the Zhou Dynasty!
Assisted Duke of Zhou in governing, quelling rebellions, expanding territories, and promoting the era of Cheng and Kang!
Revered by successive emperors and historical texts as the ancestor of the military school, the God of War, and a grandmaster of the hundred schools of thought.
"View detailed information of the Ancestor of War - Jiang Ziya!"
"Name: Jiang Shang"
"Courtesy Name: Ziya"
"Alias: Flying Bear"
"Dynasty: Late Shang and Early Zhou"
"Cultivation: Half-step Transcendence!"
"Cultivation Method: Heavenly Law"
"Attached Troop Type: None!"
"Attached Attributes: When Jiang Taigong arrives, all emperors retreat (his word can make Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm retreat); Soldiers summoned are promoted by one major realm!"
Experience: Despite his family's decline, Jiang Ziya diligently studied astronomy, geography, and military strategy, researching the way to govern and secure the nation. However, until he was 70 years old, he had achieved nothing and lived in idleness.
Later, while fishing by the Wei River at Panxi, he used the opportunity of fishing to request an audience with Ji Chang. After discussing with Jiang Ziya, Ji Chang was overjoyed, considering Jiang Taigong a rare talent. He called Jiang Ziya "Taigong Wang" and they returned together in the same carriage, with Jiang Ziya being honored as Grand Tutor. Jiang Ziya assisted Ji Chang in accumulating virtue and cultivating benevolence; he handled both internal and external affairs properly, and within a short period, two-thirds of the feudal lords in the world pledged allegiance to Zhou.
Later, he assisted King Wu Ji Fa in conquering the Shang Dynasty. In the Battle of Muye, King Zhou was defeated and fled back to Chaoge, ascending Lutai and perishing in flames. After the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Ziya founded the State of Qi to stabilize the east. He ruled by law, pacified the hearts of the people, and promoted policies that honored the wise and rewarded merit. Later, during the reign of King Cheng, when Guan Shu, Cai Shu, and Huo Shu launched the "Rebellion of the Three Governors," the Huai Yi, Xu Yi, and the "Five Eastern Marquees of Yin" raised troops against Zhou. Jiang Taigong and his son assisted Duke of Zhou in swiftly suppressing this rebellion.
In the sixth year of King Kang of Zhou, Jiang Ziya died in the Zhou capital of Haojing at the age of 139.
...
Ancient Star Road.
Emperor Ruins.
Beneath Burial Emperor Mountain, before the Origin Tower.
Boom!
Suddenly, with a thunderous roar, the entire Ancient Star Road shook. It could be seen that the Origin Tower and the Desolate Origin Ancestor both erupted with identical light, like invisible rules, filling the Origin Tower and the Desolate Origin Ancestor. Dense Emperor patterns flowed, and wisps of transcendent aura erupted. A trace of aura from the Desolate Origin Ancestor moved towards the Origin Tower, as if intending to merge, perhaps entrusting a part of his aura to the Origin Tower.
Thump!
The Ancient Star Road shook violently. Even Huo Qubing, who had just arrived at the Emperor Ruins, almost fell from the sky. This tremor was like the creation of heaven and earth! No, it was more powerful than the creation of heaven and earth! The entire Emperor Ruins split into two. The grand hall of Burial Emperor Mountain shattered, and the disheveled figures of Elder Ming, Elder Xian, and Elder Huang crawled out.
Countless heroes were attracted. Han Xin looked solemn, Sun Wu gazed in the direction of the Emperor Ruins, and Ran Min nervously gripped his weapon. The tremor just now was not something a living being could unleash. They were all half-step transcendents, and such a tremor was more terrifying than the creation of heaven.
"Origin Tower?"
Yang Hao, who was summoning heroes, was also startled by this world-shattering tremor. He opened his eyes, his gaze flickering, and he saw the figures of Han Xin and others, and Huo Qubing, but beyond that, it was a hazy blur.
Boom!
Boom!
In front of the Origin Tower, the Desolate Origin Ancestor was wrapped in layer upon layer of blood-red light. Endless blood energy was gushing out. His face was extremely ferocious, as if undergoing a metamorphosis. Behind him, wondrous phenomena arose, with blood-red light surging like the sea. The phenomenon behind him seemed to be giving birth to a world, with lightning flashing, blood rain falling, energy floating, and space exploding and then re-condensing!
Weng~~
He suddenly opened his eyes. Within his pupils, the influence of the Origin Tower was all-encompassing. A terrifying flame ignited there. As this flame burned, the phenomenon behind him underwent a shocking change. A radiant light condensed within his pupils. This light flashed and suddenly became ethereal, like a wisp of aura, but it was covered with countless runes.
These runes were very ancient, not seemingly condensed by living beings, but as if born naturally during the creation of heaven and earth. This strand of aura moved, yet it enveloped all things. It resembled a condensed influence of the Immortal Realm, containing all living beings and everything!
