"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the heroes Gan Ning and Xu Chu have beheaded a strong expert in the Rongtian realm, gaining 1.4 million killing points!"
"System, convert all killing points into reincarnation power!"
Just as Yang Hao was preparing for the next round of hero summoning, the battle results from the Blood Sun Dynasty battlefield began to be received by the system, following the previous message.
"Ding! Successfully deducted 1.4 million killing points!"
"Ding! Successfully exchanged for 140,000 strands of reincarnation power!"
"Ding! Reminder to the host, the summoning of Ji Youyu and Gao Ying consumed a total of 800,000 strands of reincarnation power. The remaining reincarnation power is now 940,000 strands!"
"Ding! Does the host wish to summon!"
"Summon!"
Nine hundred and forty thousand strands were enough to summon two experts in the Rongtian realm. Yang Hao did not hesitate and immediately gave the command.
"Ding! Successfully deducted 540,000 strands of reincarnation power!"
"Ding! The system begins summoning!"
The Xuanhuang Tower of Reincarnation echoed with the sounds of the Great Dao!
Historical scrolls turned, star seas poured like sand, and fierce banners fluttered!
Hum!
The large characters "Eastern Han" were imprinted into view.
China's history is long and profound, with countless powerful dynasties taking over the mandate of heaven in succession, dominating the land and ruling the seas!
The favored son of fortune, Liu Xiu, raised an army from Wancheng, fought against the Xin Mang, pacified Hebei, and established his capital in Luoyang, extending the Han Dynasty's reign for one hundred and ninety-five years!!
Yang Hao looked out, and saw a figure in armor, holding a long saber, slightly bowing towards Yang Hao within the long river of history!
Then, he merged into the fourth layer with the carved figures on the Xuanhuang Tower of Reincarnation, completing the hero's ranking!
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully summoning the top general of the world, Cen Peng, from the long river of history!"
Cen Peng!
Yang Hao couldn't help but smile. Among Liu Xiu's twenty-eight generals of the Yun Tai, the more famous Deng Yu was only wise in recognizing talent. When Liu Xiu encountered difficulties, Deng Yu would always recommend suitable people. This was what Liu Bang meant by the relationship between attacking people and having achievements.
However, in terms of the most powerful generals, Deng Yu was not ranked. The most capable fighters were Cen Peng, Jia Fu, and Feng Yi. And for Liu Xiu, Cen Peng was like Zhao Yun to Liu Bei, or Zhang Liao to Cao Cao.
Cen Peng was a county official at the end of the Wang Mang period. After the Green Forest Army rebelled, he led his men and declared himself a general. After the Gengshi regime was established, he led his men to surrender to Liu Xuan's cousin, Liu Jia, the King of Hanzhong. Liu Jia recommended him to Liu Xiu, and he was appointed as the Commander of the Po Lu General.
Shortly after, he was promoted to Partial General and played an important role in the battles to capture Hebei. In the campaign to accompany Liu Xiu in conquering Handan and eliminating Wang Lang, he was promoted to Protector General for his military achievements. In the battles against the Qing Du and Wu Xiao troops, he led the charge and made great contributions.
It would not be an exaggeration to call him a fierce general!
Cen Peng was also a talent who could subdue enemies without fighting!
Throughout his life, Cen Peng persuaded the surrender of major cities and prefectures in the north and south, including Wancheng, Henan, Qiyuan, Luoyang, Changsha, Jiangxia, Wuling, Guiyang, Lingling, Cangwu, Jiaozhi, and Qiongdou, reducing much bloodshed.
In the war against Shu, Liu Xiu divided his army into two routes to attack Gongsun Shu. The commander of the southern Han army was Cen Peng. Facing the river-netted terrain of Jiangzhou, Cen Peng decisively abandoned the advantage of the Han army's infantry and cavalry and switched to naval warfare. He spent two years building a powerful navy composed of thousands of "direct advancing tower ships" and "mud splashing boats." He skillfully used the east wind to burn Jingmen. The Shu army was defeated, and thousands of soldiers drowned in the river. Cen Peng took the opportunity to lead his army deep into Shu, entering Ba County, capturing Jiang Guan, and Jiangzhou was within reach, leaving the gateway to Shu wide open.
It was a great pity, however, that at this very moment, Cen Peng was unfortunately assassinated!
"Open Cen Peng's profile!"
"Name: Cen Peng"
"Courtesy Name: Junran"
"Dynasty: Eastern Han"
"Cultivation: Rongtian Ninth Layer"
"Cultivation Technique: Town Demon Divine Canon"
"Troops: Top-tier Troops - 100,000 Great Han Elite Soldiers."
Experience: Founding general and military strategist of the Eastern Han Dynasty, sixth among the twenty-eight generals of the Yun Tai.
Originally the magistrate of Jiyang County in the Xin Mang dynasty, he defended Wancheng for a long time against the Green Forest Army. Later, he surrendered to Liu Xuan, was enfeoffed as the Marquis of Guide, and belonged to Liu Yan.
After Emperor Gengshi Liu Xuan murdered Liu Yan, he surrendered to Grand Marshal Zhu Wei, was transferred to the command of Huaiyang, then to the Prefect of Yingchuan, and later surrendered to Liu Xiu. He was appointed as the General of Assassins and Inspector of all camps.
In the first year of Jianwu, Liu Xiu proclaimed himself emperor in Hebei, was appointed as the Minister of Justice, and concurrently held the military affairs of the Great General. In the second year of Jianwu, he forced the surrender of Xu Han and was promoted to the Great General of Zheng Nan and enfeoffed as the Marquis of Wuyin.
In the fifth year of Jianwu, he led the army to pacify Jingzhou. In the eighth year of Jianwu, he followed Emperor Guangwu in defeating Tianshui Commandery and eliminating Wei Xiao.
In the eleventh year of Jianwu, he attacked Gongsun Shu in Shu Commandery. He fought a major battle with Hou Dan and advanced directly to Chengdu, where he was assassinated by an assassin sent by Gongsun Shu during the night.
"Alas, what a pity!"
Yang Hao looked at Cen Peng's information. While he felt sorry for Cen Peng's tragic assassination, his current summoned state had reached the peak of the Rongtian realm.
In the southwestern region of the Eastern Wilderness, after ten thousand years, this was probably the strongest individual in this land. Although Yang Hao was unaware of the foundations of other imperial dynasties, judging from the current Great Cloud Dynasty, Saint Origin Dynasty, Azure Cang Dynasty, Cang Mu Dynasty, Northern Cold Dynasty, Heavenly Origin Dynasty, and Blood Sun Dynasty, the foundations of these ten great imperial dynasties were no more than this.
However, with the strength of the six great legions they currently possessed, they could completely suppress all directions!
"Continue!"
...
Meanwhile, in the Saint Origin Dynasty, Ying Zhong, after losing hundreds of thousands of troops and three experts in the Rongtian realm, did not panic. Instead, he sat firmly in the capital, coordinating the armies within the territory.
The deaths of Ying Tao, Ying Da, and Ying Wu were reported to the ancestors of the Zongrenfu, who were enraged. The entire Zongrenfu was thrown into chaos. Coupled with the earlier death of Ying Ji, four Rongtian realm experts had died in succession within a few months, resulting in a loss of more than half of their foundation!
"Ying Zhong, how do you explain this!"
The ancestor of the Ying family sat on the human emperor's throne with a solemn expression. Ying Zhong and a group of ministers stood in front of the hall. This ancestor on the imperial throne had lived for nearly eight hundred years, experiencing eight holy wars, and was a living fossil of the Saint Origin Dynasty.
After the martial artists of the Cangyuan World broke through the barrier of the Tianwu realm, they entered the Three Heavens Realm: Rongtian Realm, Houtian Realm, and Tongtian Realm.
According to ancient imperial records from tens of thousands of years ago, experts in the Rongtian realm could absorb the primal energy of heaven and earth to nourish their physical bodies and gain a lifespan of a thousand years!
The subsequent Houtian and Tongtian realms were where martial artists further tempered themselves, allowing them to merge with heaven and earth and further refine the primal energy of heaven and earth.
According to ancient records, after breaking through to Tongtian, one could gain a lifespan of five thousand years. Even if their lifespan was exhausted, their physical body could still carry the primal energy they possessed in life, and if it was not damaged, it would remain incorruptible for eternity!
As for the realms after that, there were no records.
Since the collapse of the imperial dynasty ten thousand years ago, the ancient seals had weakened, and powerful demonic beasts would break out once every hundred years, causing chaos in the world.
Since then, there had been no experts in the Houtian realm in the southwestern region of the Eastern Wilderness. For ten thousand years, Rongtian realm experts had shouldered the banner of humanity, fighting fiercely against demonic beasts.
