Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, once said, "With three thousand cavalry, Jing shed blood in the barbarian courts, thus taking Dingxiang, a feat unparalleled in ancient times, enough to wash away my shame by the Wei River!"

Experience: Li Jing was born into the Yang Clan of the Longxi Li family. He initially served the Sui Dynasty as the Cavalry Commander of Mayi Prefecture, then transferred to the Tang Dynasty and followed Prince Qin, Li Shimin, in attacking Wang Shichong.
In the third year of Wude, he assisted Prince Zhao, Li Xiaogong, in pacifying Xiao Xi and Fu Gongshi in the south, and in appeasing the Lingnan tribes. From the eighth year of Wude, he defended the northern frontier against the invasion of the Eastern Turks. By the third year of Zhenguan, as the Commander-in-Chief of Dingxiang Dao, he led the various generals on a northern expedition. In this campaign, he used three thousand elite cavalry to launch a surprise night attack on Dingxiang, causing the Khagan Jieli's forces to panic and flee. He then raided Yinshan, annihilating the Eastern Turkic regime in one fell swoop, extending the Tang Dynasty's territory from north of Yinshan straight to the great desert. This battle shook the four directions. For his achievements, he was appointed Minister of War and granted the title Duke of Dai.
In the ninth year of Zhenguan, Li Jing retired due to foot illness. In the same year, he was recalled to command the army in the western campaign against Tuyuhun. For his achievements, he was granted the title Duke of Wei, and was known as "Li Weigong."
In his later years, Li Jing suffered from illness, withdrew from politics, and lived in seclusion. In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, he was listed among the "Twenty-Four Meritorious Officials of Lingyan Pavilion."
Six years later, in the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, Li Jing passed away at the age of seventy-nine and was buried in Zhaoling. During the reign of Emperor Suzong of Tang, he was enshrined in the Temple of King Wucheng, ranking among the ten sages.
He also authored many military books, such as "Liujun Jing" and "Weigong Bingfa," most of which are now lost.

...
"Master!"
"You have awakened?"
In the Imperial Ruins, deep within Mount Burial Emperor.
Immortal Elder, Nether Elder, and Desolate Elder knelt on both knees, looking at the old man before them with great excitement.
The old man had a majestic physique, his face was like pale gold, his five-mustache beard flowed behind his head, and between his brows was an inscription resembling a three-story stone pagoda.
Before him, a bloody spring gushed out liquid immortal energy. Above the spring, a nine-story tower stood, emanating terrifying energy. The three elders looked at the nine-story tower with a sense of dread.
"Immortal Realm, what has happened? Why has it broken free from the control of the Origin Tower?" the old man asked with a grave expression, looking at the nine-story tower above the spring.
This tower was called the Origin Tower. It belonged to no living being in the Immortal Realm, nor did it belong to the pale gold-faced old man before them. It was the origin of the Immortal Realm and the Ancient Star Path. Immortal energy emerged from here, and cultivation methods were also opened from here.
This tower was born alongside the creation of the Immortal Realm and the Ancient Star Path; it was the core of everything.
"Master, the Four Great Races were annihilated by the Great Han Heavenly Court, and all our pawns within the Immortal Realm were destroyed!" Nether Elder said nervously. The old man before them was called Ancestor Huangyuan, a powerhouse from the Creation Era.
There were few beings in the Creation Era, and each possessed world-shattering divine abilities and was immensely powerful. They were mostly the ancestral figures of the current races in the Immortal Realm!
For example, Emperor Kunpeng was the first Kunpeng in the Immortal Realm!
Emperor Vermilion Bird was the first Vermilion Bird in the Immortal Realm!
And he!
Ancestor Huangyuan!
He was the first human in the Immortal Realm!
In the Creation Era, Ancestor Huangyuan was not initially very powerful. After countless years of cultivation, he still could not reach the top combat power of the Creation Era. Later, he ventured deep into the Ancient Star Path, accidentally discovered the Origin Tower before him, and was touched by a trace of creation power. From then on, he possessed extraordinary talent, a monstrous genius among monsters. In less than a few hundred thousand years, he controlled ninety-nine Imperial Mandates.
To prevent other beings from coveting the Origin Tower, he moved a great mountain above the Origin Tower and used his great divine powers to conceal everything in this place.
With ninety-nine Imperial Mandates under his control, he was not satisfied with his current power. He began to infiltrate the Origin Tower, wanting to claim it for himself. However, the Origin Tower developed its own consciousness. In a battle, Ancestor Huangyuan was severely injured, but he also unexpectedly stepped into Half-step Transcendence!
Transcendence!
Within the Immortal Realm, it was an incomplete realm, an idealized realm. Having become a Half-step Transcendent, and to prevent powerful Immortal Emperors from discovering the existence of the Origin Tower, he returned to the Immortal Realm, purged the powerhouses of the Creation Era, and cultivated for tens of millions of years, achieving considerable progress. He challenged the Origin Tower again. They battled for hundreds of thousands of years, and the scattered taboos fell into the Immortal Realm, becoming curses on the Sea of Realms. This was the true origin of the curses within the Immortal Realm's Sea of Realms.
Later, he severely injured the Origin Tower, and he himself fell into a deep slumber. Hundreds of thousands of years later, he awoke and realized that his strength was not enough to completely obliterate the Origin Tower. He returned to the Immortal Realm.
The Immortal Realm had developed over the years, giving rise to countless beings and races. He selected three servants from the human race: Immortal Elder, Nether Elder, and Desolate Elder, and also enlightened the human being Luo Zun. He intended to control the Immortal Realm in his hands, completely eliminating variables among the myriad races of the Immortal Realm and preventing beings like himself from emerging and posing a threat to him.
After taking Luo Zun under his wing, he returned to the Ancient Star Path and went to the Origin Tower, cultivating day and night. In the mid-Immortal Ancient Era, he challenged the Origin Tower again, but this attempt also ended in failure. This resulted in him falling into a deep slumber for long periods. Each awakening was very brief, lasting only a few hundred years. These few hundred years were also when he began to reshuffle the forces of the Immortal Realm.
