My Hidden Strength Was Exposed by the Heavenly Dao Ranking List – Chapter 73

Chapter 73: Blood Demon Great Skill

Blood Demon Great Skill, what kind of skill is it exactly?

This thing was created by the warlord Zhu Can at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos.

Eighteen rebel kings rose up together.

At that time, there was a man named Zhu Can, who was originally a minor official in a county. At the end of Emperor Yang of Sui’s reign, the world was in chaos. Taking advantage of the time when the prefectures and counties were suppressing bandits, he gathered a group of people and transformed from a minor official into a bandit leader. This is somewhat similar to Song Jiang in the 《Water Margin》.

Soon, he raised a team of 100,000 people, and then he called himself the Garuda King. The Garuda King is a divine bird recorded in Hindu and Buddhist scriptures. It eats one dragon and five hundred small dragons every day. The Garuda King is also the Golden Winged Peng bird in the 《Journey to the West》.

Zhu Can had an army of 100,000 men, and it was not easy to support them.

Zhu Can, in his desperation, suddenly thought of the “red people.”

His army didn’t need to prepare reserve grain at all, they only needed to bring salt.

And as Zhu Can consumed more and more “red people”, he finally discovered one thing: absorbing human blood seemed to increase his power.

As he drank more and more human blood.

He finally invented a technique called the Blood Demon Great Skill.

Generally, when people practice martial arts, they also need requirements for aptitude and talent.

The stronger the talent, the better the aptitude, the greater the achievements that can be made.

For example, Yelü Dashi was considered to have talent no less than Yelü Abaoji, the founding emperor of the Liao Dynasty, so he was considered to have great potential and was valued by everyone.

But the Blood Demon Great Skill created by Zhu Can can ignore any aptitude or talent limitations and achieve infinite power.

Zhu Can, who originally had ordinary qualifications and could at most reach the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, actually reached the tenth level of the Land Immortal Realm.

If Zhu Can were placed in many eras, he would probably become a great disaster.

However!

He encountered one of the only three top experts in history who had cultivated to the eighth realm of martial arts, the Loose Immortal Realm, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin.

Li Shimin easily beheaded Zhu Can with his sword.

After Li Shimin killed Zhu Can, he discovered this extremely evil secret technique, the Blood Demon Great Skill. He immediately burned the manual and at the same time issued an order: “If anyone dares to practice the Blood Demon Great Skill, all the people under heaven shall attack him!”

This order of Emperor Taizong was well enforced in the Tang Dynasty.

However, at the end of the Tang Dynasty.

A man named Qin Zongquan accidentally obtained this Blood Demon Great Skill.

Who was this Qin Zongquan?

This person was a subordinate of Huang Chao.

After Huang Chao died, he gathered Huang Chao’s subordinates and established a state called Da Qi, which lasted for four years.

However, he encountered Zhu Wen, the Grand Ancestor of the Later Liang Dynasty.

Although he had more than ten times the troops, he was defeated by Zhu Wen.

In the end, he died at the hands of Zhu Wen.

Then, this Blood Demon Great Skill was burned by Zhu Wen again.

It was originally thought that this Blood Demon Great Skill had disappeared from the world, but unexpectedly, it has emerged at this time.

Those who have cultivated the Blood Demon Great Skill are all extremely vicious characters, such as Zhu Can and Qin Zongquan.

And cultivating this Blood Demon Great Skill itself is against human ethics, requiring the consumption of “red people” and drinking human blood.

In the words of Emperor Taizong, “If anyone dares to practice the Blood Demon Great Skill, all the people under heaven shall attack him!”

◈◈◈

Therefore!

If Gao Mingshun, the true power holder of the Dali Kingdom, has really cultivated the Blood Demon Great Skill, then I will definitely kill him.

Peng Feng said to Duan Yu, “If it is as you say, I will definitely kill this person.”

Duan Yu was overjoyed and immediately took out a document with verified information that indeed proved that Gao Mingshun was practicing the Blood Demon Great Skill.

After reading the document, Peng Feng nodded.

Then.

He vanished in a flash.

He had already disappeared from the palace.

◈◈◈

After Peng Feng left the Dali Imperial Palace, he went to verify the information given by Emperor Xianzong of Dali, Duan Yu.

After his own verification, he found that Gao Mingshun, the head of the Gao Clan, was indeed practicing the Blood Demon Great Skill.

Then there is nothing more to say.

Gao Mingshun must die!

After a moment.

Peng Feng had already arrived at the Duke of China’s Residence.

The Duke of China is a hereditary title of the Gao Clan, the chancellor of the Dali Kingdom.

In 1094, Gao Shengtai accepted the abdication of Emperor Duan Zhengming of Dali and changed the country’s name to Da Zhong.

Two years later, before Gao Shengtai died, he ordered his son Gao Taiming to return power to the Duan Clan.

The descendants of the Gao Clan after Gao Taiming who served as chancellor held the power of Dali and were granted the title of Duke of China.

The Duke of China is the true power holder of the Dali Kingdom.

Therefore, this Duke of China’s Residence was built to be quite magnificent, and even in terms of area, it was not smaller than the imperial palace.

At the entrance of the Duke of China’s Residence, there were martial artists of the Diamond Realm guarding the gate.

Peng Feng stood in front of the Duke of China’s Residence with great fanfare, his hand on the hilt of his saber, and shouted in a low voice, “Peng Feng of the Great Song is here! Gao Mingshun, the Duke of China of Dali and head of the Gao Clan, come out and accept your death!”

This shout, like a rolling thunder, directly spread out and echoed throughout the entire Duke of China’s Residence.

The four words, “Peng Feng of the Great Song.”

Seemed to carry a magical power!

For a moment, everything was silent!

All who heard it were shocked!

Indeed!

Who in the world does not know the name of Peng Feng of the Great Song?

Peng Feng is the number one expert in the Song Dynasty.

He once defeated Liao Shangren, the number one expert of the Liao Dynasty, who was at the ninth level of the Land Immortal Realm.

He also defeated Wanyan Loushi, who was ranked third on the Jin Dynasty’s Heaven List and was at the half-step Heavenly Human Realm.

Among the existing experts in the entire East, he is ranked third, only inferior to the two Heavenly Human Realm experts of the Jin Dynasty!

Such a great figure actually appeared in Dali.
