"Not bad! Not bad! At last, I'd achieved every goal for this life!"

Looking at the brand-new data on the status panel, Gu Han was delighted, and a smile could not help appearing on his face.

Back when he had first transmigrated into this world, he had been utterly panicked. All he had wanted was to find an offensive martial skill to strengthen himself, deal with the crises of the real world, and avoid dying an untimely death in the Suicide Squad.

It was only after several years of cultivation at Treasure Pearl Temple that Gu Han's mind settled down and his ambitions began to slowly swell. He dared to climb toward loftier goals, though at most he had hoped to break through Inner Qi and become invincible within that realm. That alone would have made this life complete.

Only after A Yanda had forced him down the mountain more than twenty years ago, and he had obtained Treasure Pearl Temple's hidden legacy, did he truly clarify his goal for this life.

That was to cultivate all three supreme martial skills left behind by Patriarch Bodhidharma to Fifth Level Mastery, and to attempt to create a genuine internal cultivation method capable of breaking through True Qi Projection.

Yet at the time, he had set that goal only as a beautiful vision. To be honest, even he himself had not been confident that he could fulfill that wish.

But now, now not only had that wish truly been fulfilled, it had even been exceeded by far.

"Moon Chasing Steps," Third Level, Mastery!

"Heaven-Overturning Palm," Fifth Level, Mastery!

"One Reed Crossing River," Fifth Level, Mastery!

"Indestructible Vajra Divine Art," Fourth Level, Mastery!

One martial skill after another, one ability after another, had been mastered by Gu Han and cultivated to the realm of mastery.

Of the three supreme martial skills left behind by Patriarch Bodhidharma, aside from the last one he had cultivated, the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Art," which had fallen from Fifth Level Minor Mastery to Fourth Level Mastery due to the decline of his qi and blood in his later years, all the others had reached their highest level and were engraved in his mind.

Even if he simulated ten lives or a hundred lives and changed bodies countless times, he would only need to adapt a little before he could wield them perfectly once more.

And compared to those martial skills, the strange new energy born from the fusion of "Inner Qi" and "inner force" was perhaps the most precious thing of all.

This energy was incomparably wondrous. Not only had it aided his breakthrough as though divine help were at hand, its power was also boundless.

Although Gu Han had yet to use this new energy against an enemy, through the original owner's memories, he knew that the wondrous new energy born within his body far surpassed the internal force of Second-rate Masters in the Yue Kingdom of the main world in terms of essence. It even seemed somewhat stronger than the astral qi of First-rate Masters, who could manifest True Qi into astral force.

As Gu Han compared them in secret, mysterious information surfaced in his mind once more:

"It is said that in the Yue Kingdom, the cultivation methods of Immortal Masters differ from those of martial artists. Martial artists cultivate what is called internal force, while Immortal Masters cultivate Spiritual Power!"

"Spiritual Power!"

At the thought of those two words, a sharp gleam flashed through Gu Han's eyes, and his emotions surged.

Spiritual Power was a strange energy whose essence far surpassed internal force.

In legend, once Immortal Masters who cultivated immortal arts formed Spiritual Power within their bodies, even if they had been ordinary people without the strength to truss a chicken a moment before, in the next instant they could become extraordinary beings comparable to Xiantian martial artists.

Calling the wind and summoning the rain!

Feasting on rosy clouds and drinking dew!

Riding the wind on flying swords!

Treading upon the azure firmament!

No legend seemed excessive when used to describe Immortal Masters.

That was the terror of Spiritual Power! It was a higher energy that completely transcended inner force, so its might was naturally limitless.

Although this new energy born within Gu Han's body was still far inferior to Spiritual Power, it seemed to possess a trace of that same quality. Perhaps it could be called...

"Half Spiritual Power!"

With a thought, Gu Han immediately gave the new energy in his body a new name.

The moment the thought settled, the status panel before his eyes suddenly rippled like flowing water. The "Self-Created Nameless Cultivation Method" in the cultivation methods column abruptly changed into "Self-Created Half Spiritual Power Cultivation Method"!

"Good! What an excellent 'Self-Created Half Spiritual Power Cultivation Method'! With this cultivation method in hand, whether I return to the main world or simulate my next life, I will fear nothing."

Seeing that the name he had created had truly gained the system's recognition, Gu Han threw back his head and laughed. His aged body flickered like shifting shadows, vanishing from the crude thatched hut in an instant.

Bianxiong City was a heavily fortified border city in northern Anping Prefecture. Its geographical position was superb, and it had always been a strategic battleground that military forces would fight over at all costs.

Of course, in this age of war between the barbarians and the Yan people, this place was even more crucial. It had become a major battlefield between the Anti-Barbarian Alliance and the barbarian army, and even Ran Min, the leader of the Anti-Barbarian Alliance and the Martial Mourning Heavenly King, was stationed here.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha..."

On the Dingmao Day of the Yichou Month in the three hundred and sixty-second year of Great Yan, the great sun had just risen and dawn had only begun to break when war drums thundered from the distant horizon. Immediately afterward came the soldiers' cries, soaring into the heavens.

Outside Xiongyuan City, an immense barbarian army numbering hundreds of thousands spread out in a dark, seething mass. Advancing beneath the rising sun, they rolled toward Xiongyuan City like a colossal primordial beast, their very breath seeming capable of blotting out the sun in the sky. The armor on their bodies reflected the sunlight, so dazzling that no one could keep their eyes open.

Black clouds pressed upon the city, threatening to crush it; armor gleamed toward the sun like scales of gold.

Though the great battle had not yet begun, the grim, murderous cruelty of the battlefield had already wound around everyone's hearts, making them feel incomparably heavy.
