Chapter 946: The sixth God-Demon grade cultivation technique announced; both generations of Emperors are not dead!

~6 min read 1,097 words

But even so,

Zhao Kuangyin still had the True Dragon Heaven Sword by his side, and his strength was still stronger than that Khitan Khan.

He even briefly entered the Quasi-Emperor realm during the final battle, killing that Khitan Quasi-Emperor in one fell swoop.

Such an ending sounded quite good.

But everyone could not help but feel puzzled.

Since the mortal enemy, the Khitan Khan, was already dead, why did Zhao Kuangyin pass away and leave the world in less than a hundred years?

Could it be that two hundred years ago, besides that Khitan Khan, there was someone else who could threaten a powerhouse of Zhao Kuangyin's level, a Great Completion Martial Saint?

Especially the crowd of Jianghu heroes from the Great Song, who were incomparably concerned about this.

In these chaotic times, with the nine great life-restricted zones appearing together and the Great Tribulation of the Ages looming, the Divine Land was in imminent danger.

Whether it was the entire world or the Great Song nation, they all needed a peerless hero like Zhao Kuangyin to protect them.

For a time, the people in the hall began to discuss it one after another:

"To think that the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan actually borrowed the Top-Quality Innate Spirit Treasure, the River Chart, to create the God-Demon grade cultivation technique, the 'Innate Universe Art'."

"And that was just a Top-Quality Innate Spirit Treasure that had already lost its power; it's hard to imagine how powerful a complete River Chart would be."

"No wonder Mr. Su didn't review Top-Quality Innate Spirit Treasures before; these are supreme treasures that would make even figures in the Immortal World green with envy."

"To think that Zhao Kuangyin two hundred years ago had such heaven-reaching cultivation, even capable of briefly entering the Quasi-Emperor realm."

"Magnificent Song Huang Zhao Kuangyin, fighting for the Central Plains and destroying that Khitan Khan; otherwise, who knows how much suffering the Central Plains would have endured."

"That's not right! Can't even a powerful technique like the 'Innate Universe Art' grant immortality? Or is Zhao Kuangyin still alive today?"

"To think such a terrifying battle occurred two hundred years ago; although it wasn't as great as Emperor Wu of Han's battle against the incarnation of Eternal Heaven, it was still a battle between two successors of God-Demon grade techniques."

"This was all two hundred years ago; I wonder if these two God-Demon grade cultivation techniques have been passed down?"

……

The tenth private room in the West District.

A flash of sharp light appeared in the eyes of the Sunflower Ancestor; he never expected to hear such secrets.

Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin!

This founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was undoubtedly known to every citizen of the Great Song.

But because of the 'Candlelight and Axe Shadow' incident, the current imperial lineage of the Great Song was not descended from Zhao Kuangyin, but from his younger brother, Zhao Guangyi.

Therefore, matters concerning Zhao Kuangyin were highly taboo within the imperial palace, and no one was ever allowed to mention them lightly.

Even among the common people, there was much discussion, with rumors often saying that Zhao Guangyi's lineage had stolen Zhao Kuangyin's throne.

Even someone like the Sunflower Ancestor, who had spent most of his life in the inner court, knew very little about Zhao Kuangyin.

Now, suddenly learning that Zhao Kuangyin was actually a successor of the "Innate Universe Art," he could not help but feel deeply shocked.

Furthermore, Zhao Kuangyin's cultivation had already reached the shocking level of Great Completion Martial Saint.

This made the Sunflower Ancestor even more certain that those rumors were false.

With such terrifying strength, how could Zhao Kuangyin possibly have been framed by his younger brother, Zhao Guangyi?

In other words, Zhao Guangyi's lineage had clearly been taking the blame for two hundred years.

But what puzzled the Sunflower Ancestor was, if Zhao Kuangyin was not harmed by Zhao Guangyi, then how did he die?

Thinking this, the Sunflower Ancestor could no longer restrain himself; he stepped out of the private room and said loudly:

"I am the Great Song Inner Court Superintendent, Sunflower, greetings to Mr. Su."

"May I ask Mr. Su, our dynasty's Taizu had heaven-reaching strength, so how did he ultimately die?"

Once these words were spoken, everyone in the hall followed suit.

They were also very curious about this, and even more curious about whether Zhao Kuangyin's "Innate Universe Art" had been passed down.

……

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen gently shook his folding fan, and facing the curious gazes of the crowd, he said slowly:

"Since you are all curious about this, Su will continue the review."

"At the moment Zhao Kuangyin was breaking through to the Quasi-Emperor realm, he was ambushed by the Khitan Khan."

"Although he successfully killed the Khitan Khan, he himself suffered immense damage and had no possibility of breaking through to the Quasi-Emperor realm again."

"Afterward, Zhao Kuangyin suddenly heard that although the Khitan Khan's heart had stopped, he still had one breath remaining."

"Moreover, the Khitan people had obtained a supreme treasure called the Taiji Profound Coffin, and had placed the Khitan Khan inside it."

"Legend has it that the Taiji Profound Coffin possesses various miraculous abilities, capable of repairing bodily injuries, halting the flow of life, and even bringing the dead back to life."

"The Khitan people were hoping to use this Taiji Profound Coffin to resurrect the Khitan Khan."

"Zhao Kuangyin naturally did not want this; he personally went to the Khitan territory to seize the Taiji Profound Coffin and succeeded."

"But he did not see the Khitan Khan's corpse inside the Taiji Profound Coffin."

"At the same time, after studying it, he discovered that this Taiji Profound Coffin was indeed incomparably miraculous; not only could it repair his dantian injuries, but he could also continue to cultivate inside the coffin."

"Thus, Zhao Kuangyin used a supreme secret technique to seal his own consciousness and buried himself inside the Taiji Profound Coffin."

"Hoping that after countless years, he could recover from his injuries, emerge from the coffin, and prove his Dao in the Quasi-Emperor realm in one fell swoop."

"But the Taiji Profound Coffin is very strange; once inside, one is not in control of oneself and must meet specific conditions to emerge."

"So Zhao Kuangyin's state can be said to be neither dead nor alive, neither alive nor dead."

"Perhaps tomorrow he could break out of the coffin, or perhaps even after another thousand years, he will be unable to emerge." ===== CHAPTER 948 =====
