Now that Su Chen says that Bloodhand Li Gong is still alive, how could everyone not be shocked?
At this moment, the elders of the Song Dynasty martial arts world recalled the fear they had felt when they were dominated by the Blood-Handed Craftsman.
After a brief silence, the people in the hall began to discuss animatedly:
"Heavens! Blood-Handed Master Li is still alive? I almost forgot about him if the Celestial Mystery Immortal hadn't mentioned it."
"Blood-Handed Craftsman, this is a demon that the Song Dynasty has only seen once in a century! The fact that such a monster is still alive means the Song Dynasty's martial arts world is doomed!"
"Haha, you used to laugh at the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world for its many misfortunes, but now it seems your Great Song Dynasty isn't much better off, and may even be worse off."
"We haven't even dealt with Yan Kuangtu yet, and now an even more powerful Blood Hand Li Gong has appeared. What should the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty do?"
"In the Ming Dynasty, there are still Master Zhang and Arrow Hidden upholding justice. I wonder if our Song Dynasty has anyone who can raise the banner of righteousness?"
"Danger! Danger! The martial arts world of the Song Dynasty is really in trouble this time. This Blood-Handed Master Li is a truly ruthless character. He's quick to wipe out entire families and sects."
In the third private room on the fifteenth floor, on the north side.
A glint flashed in Yin Hou Zhu Yuyan's eyes as she said softly, "Blood Hand Li Gong, I never expected that this senior of the Yin Gui Sect would still be alive."
"Is he the strongest person in the history of the Yin Gui Sect that Master often mentioned?"
Wanwan blinked her bright eyes and asked.
Zhu Yuyan nodded: "That's right! The Purple Blood Demon Art that Li Gong cultivates is one of the most powerful demonic arts in the Heavenly Demon Strategy. Only when my Heavenly Demon Art is mastered can I contend with him. The fact that he was able to break through to the Land Immortal Realm is enough to prove the power of this martial art."
Wanwan frowned and said, "But it seems that it was this 'Purple Blood Demon Art' that turned him into a madman. I don't know why he has been living in seclusion for fifty years."
Zhu Yuyan couldn't understand this problem either.
The demonic sect and the righteous sect are different; even if they belong to the same sect, their relationship will not be very good.
For example, there was very little interaction between the Yin Gui School of the Sui Dynasty and the Yin Gui School of the Song Dynasty.
However, she was not in a hurry, because she knew that the people of the Song Dynasty's martial arts world were the most anxious right now.
They will ask her the questions she wants to know.
As Zhu Yuyan had predicted, things went exactly as she had expected.
The news that Li Gong was still alive terrified the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty, creating an atmosphere of panic and fear.
Not long after, a burly man strode up to the railing and said loudly:
"Hong Qigong of the Beggars' Sect of the Great Song Dynasty greets the Celestial Mystery Immortal."
"I am willing to offer two million taels of silver as a divination fee, seeking guidance from the Celestial Master on why Master Li has remained in seclusion for fifty years."
As the largest gang in the Song Dynasty, the Beggars' Sect's contribution of two million taels of silver was nothing.
Given Hong Qigong's righteous character, he naturally stepped forward without hesitation.
These words naturally garnered a response from all the martial arts practitioners of the Song Dynasty.
A person's fame is like the shadow of a tree!
The reputation of Blood Hands Master is so great that the name alone evokes images of rivers of blood.
Moreover, unlike Yan Kuangtu who was surrounded and fell off a cliff, Li Gong disappeared at the peak of his martial arts, when he was invincible.
Therefore, no one can ignore why he went into seclusion.
If Li Gong's seclusion was, like that of the Ming Dynasty's sorcerer Pang Ban, a preparation for future upheaval of the martial arts world...
The various sects of the Song Dynasty's martial arts world should make plans as soon as possible.
As everyone pondered this, they unconsciously turned their gazes toward Bai Yutai, so tense that they almost stopped breathing.
Without hesitation, Su Chen activated the system and looked towards Hong Qigong.
Soon, the system responded:
"Successfully predicting Hong Qigong's fortune."
"Congratulations, host, for obtaining a drop of true dragon essence blood."
Su Chen's expression changed slightly; he couldn't possibly estimate the value of this thing.
After all, the true dragons in the martial arts world, the fantasy world, and the immortal heroes world are vastly different.
Regardless of the type, this true dragon blood is definitely extraordinary and an extremely rare reward.
Thinking of this, Su Chen smiled slightly, opened his folding fan, and said loudly:
"Although the martial arts foundation of the Song Dynasty cannot compare with that of the Ming Dynasty, it far exceeds your imagination."
"The reason why Bloodhand Li Gong went into seclusion was because he was intimidated by an invincible grandmaster and was too scared to show his face again."
"This story goes back fifty years."
"At that time, Li Gong had already mastered the Purple Blood Demon Art and was focusing on cultivating another supreme mental technique of the Demonic Sect, the Seventy-Two Forms of the Heavenly Demon Hand."
"This skill is equally powerful, with each move containing immense power. In the past thousand years, very few people in the Demonic Sect have been able to master it."
"As we all know, when martial artists are cultivating, their spiritual sense is at its most acute, and they can perceive everything around them."
"Just after Li Gong finished practicing all 72 moves of the Heavenly Demon Hand, he suddenly heard a strange flute sound, which was both piercing and eerie."
"Li Gong was shocked because the sound of the flute was very close to him, and he had not noticed anyone approaching at all."
"Without a second thought, Engineer Li immediately broke through the window and rushed out to search for the bastard, only to hear the flute music abruptly stop, and the person vanish without a trace."
Chapter 144 Eminent Monk
"Li Gong became increasingly flustered. When he returned to his room, his expression changed drastically as he passed the bronze mirror, and he immediately took off his white robe."
"His white robe was covered with human figures in various poses, with lines of small characters next to it."
"Upon closer inspection, Engineer Li became increasingly frightened."
“Those images and words actually correspond one by one to the cultivation method of the ‘Seventy-Two Forms of the Heavenly Demon Hand’ that he had just practiced.”
"He practiced diligently for many years in order to master the 'Seventy-Two Forms of the Heavenly Demon Hand,' only to have it all stolen by someone else in an instant."
“What’s even more terrifying is that this person not only approached him silently while he was practicing, but also copied and sculpted his work from behind.”
"What kind of lightness skill would one need to do that?"
"With such unfathomable lightness skill, if that person had intended to kill him, he would probably have died countless times already."
"Only then did Li Gong realize that there are always people more skilled than you, and his martial arts skills were not invincible at all."
"He knew that the words left by the grandmaster were a warning, and that if he did anything wrong again, the other party could take his life at any time."
"Therefore, Li Gong swore an oath that he would never show himself unless he could unravel the mystery of life and death, and from then on, he disappeared without a trace."
After Su Chen finished speaking, the hall immediately erupted in discussion.
No one could have predicted that things would turn out this way.
Li Gong's fifty years of seclusion were not due to any grand scheme, but rather because he was terrified.
This is a ruthless and merciless demon, the most powerful evil master in the Song Dynasty in the last hundred years.
After hearing Su Chen's words, everyone had a better understanding of Engineer Li.
This wasn't because he was cowardly, but because the grandmaster who warned him was far too terrifying.
They simply couldn't imagine what kind of strength it would take to get close to a master like Li Gong without anyone noticing.
Moreover, it wasn't just about getting close; the grandmaster's actions completely overturned everyone's understanding.
He instantly stole and learned the top-level martial arts technique of the Demonic Sect, "The Seventy-Two Forms of the Heavenly Demon Hand," and even left pictures and text on the white robe behind Li Gong.
This technique is truly unbelievable.
If Su Chen hadn't said it was done by a martial arts grandmaster, they would have thought it was the work of some ghost or god.
Those martial arts practitioners in the Song Dynasty, in particular, looked at each other in disbelief, never expecting that there was such a powerful but unknown figure in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty.
After a brief silence, discussions broke out in the hall:
"What? Did I hear that right? Engineer Li was scared away?"
"This is beyond my imagination. Even a ruthless devil like Engineer Li is afraid?"
"Li Gong is the most terrifying demon in the Song Dynasty in the past few hundred years. The fact that he is so afraid shows that this supreme grandmaster's strength is truly unbelievable."
"Hahaha, I knew it. If the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world has a representative of the Way of Heaven like Jian Yin, then the Song Dynasty's martial arts world must also have hidden masters protecting the martial arts world in the shadows."
"I wonder if this supreme grandmaster is still alive? What level of cultivation did he reach?"
"I hope he's still alive, otherwise if Engineer Li finds out, he'll definitely make a comeback!"
In the third private room on the fifteenth floor, on the side of Bei.
Zhu Yuyan and Wanwan exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
"I never imagined that there would be such a supreme grandmaster in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty."
Zhu Yuyan said with a solemn expression.
Even she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat after hearing Su Chen's description.
Imagine if someone touched you so close you you didn't even notice; you'd probably be terrified and never dare to show your face again.
Wanwan said elegantly, "This time, the list of the most outstanding figures in the Song Dynasty has been announced. If that supreme grandmaster were still alive, he would definitely be on the list, and then we would know who he is."
Zhu Yuyan nodded slightly, her gaze returning to Bai Yutai.
Su Chen leisurely sipped his tea, and only spoke slowly after the surrounding chatter had gradually subsided:
"Next, let's comment on the next expert on the list."
"Ranked fifth on the list of unparalleled masters, Dugu Qiubai."
"This man can be called a martial arts prodigy of his generation. He created the 'Dugu Seeking the Sword' and has been invincible for thirty years."
"Later, he buried the sword in his grave and lived with the eagle, eventually reaching the state of 'no sword is better than having a sword'."
"Since the Nine Provinces Sword Immortal Ranking has already provided commentary, I, Su, will not elaborate further here."
As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, the hall became lively.
Dugu Qiubai is on the list!
