Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 591 - 379: Xuanwu and Gluttonous Snake

When Chen Ku was exploring Wen Suzhen’s inheritance not long ago, he triggered the cultivation conditions for the 11th Transformation Map.

He needed five hundred Spirit Jades, a hundred catties of Divine Wood Gold, a hundred catties of Green Pine Soil, a hundred strands of Seventh Realm Evil Qi, Divine Skill Level Martial Arts Mastery, and Seventh Realm Outer Firmament cultivation.

Those five hundred Spirit Jades had already been sacrificed.

Next, only the Divine Wood Gold and Green Pine Soil remained.

He had long satisfied the Seventh Realm Evil Qi, Divine Skill Level Martial Arts Mastery, and Seventh Realm Outer Firmament cultivation requirements.

And since the Divine Wood Gold and Green Pine Soil could be bought with money, he arranged for Er Lang’s incarnation from Qiu Dragon Mansion to handle it through certain channels.

Unexpectedly, during his month-long stay at the Divine Martial Hall, Er Lang had already succeeded in obtaining them, and even acquired a good amount of Spirit Jades.

[The Diagram Master has met all the cultivation conditions for the 11th Transformation Map. Would you like to cultivate?]

Chen Ku didn’t hesitate.

With a sizzling sound, the Green Pine Soil and Divine Wood Gold placed in the Hero King Realm disappeared.

The 11th scroll in his mind slowly unfolded at this moment.

Chen Ku was delighted:

"I can unlock another transformation."

In a certain sense, this was also why he had the confidence to choose all the courses from the ten halls at the Divine Martial Hall. He theoretically had eleven transformations, equivalent to eleven avatars.

He could completely let each avatar take a course, and Chen Ku only needed to inherit the cultivation results from his avatars.

What pressure are the ten hall courses? More people will solve it!

Now, the completion of the eleven Transformation Maps made it difficult for Chen Ku to hide his joy.

But at this moment.

The Transformation Maps in his mind were still prompting.

It was the 12th and 13th Transformation Maps.

[The Diagram Master has met the cultivation conditions for the 12th Transformation Map: one thousand Spirit Jades, Eighth Realm once Marrow Cleansing]

[12th Transformation Map Cultivation Condition: one thousand Spirit Jades, ten catties of Immortal Sword Sand, ten catties of Black Wood Iron, ten catties of Qingtan Gold, Eighth Realm once Marrow Cleansing cultivation, ten strands of Eighth Realm Evil Qi]

......

[The Diagram Master has met the cultivation conditions for the 13th Transformation Map: three thousand Spirit Jades]

[13th Transformation Map Cultivation Condition: three thousand Spirit Jades, one hundred catties of Immortal Sword Sand, one hundred catties of Black Wood Iron, one hundred catties of Light Sandalwood Gold, Eighth Realm three times Marrow Cleansing cultivation, one hundred strands of Eighth Realm Evil Qi] 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

(Note: The completion of the 13th Transformation Map will awaken the third Great Divine Power)

...

Chen Ku looked at the big pile of Spirit Jades on the ground, which directly triggered the reactions of the 12th and 13th Transformation Maps, and was slightly surprised, saying:

"Five thousand Spirit Jades? Where did they come from?"

Er Lang smiled and said: "Although Qiu Dragon Mansion hasn’t experienced a massive attack from the Qi Cultivators of Yuan Country, some of their spies have infiltrated. Kong Xin and I worked together to capture them using the Fire Beak Pot. We forced them to reveal a Spirit Mine location of Yuan Country. Half a month ago, we hijacked a ship transporting Spirit Jades from that mine, and that’s how we got these five or six thousand Spirit Jades."

Chen Ku was delighted and said: "Good job on the hijacking."

His focus now was on the third Great Divine Power mentioned in the 13th Transformation Map.

He was extremely curious.

The first two Divine Skills, "Fetus Transformation Refining Shape" and "Evil Summoning Banner," already had a powerful impact on him. What would the third Divine Skill of the Transformation Map be?

Immediately, he decided to sacrifice all five or six thousand Spirit Jades to the 12th and 13th Transformation Maps.

He began to light up some of the cultivation conditions for the two Transformation Maps.

Then he informed Er Lang about what was needed for the 12th and 13th Transformation Maps, instructing him to continue collecting them after returning to Qiu Dragon Mansion.

Er Lang sighed upon hearing it: "This Transformation Map is really a gold-swallower. These five or six thousand Spirit Jades could buy a whole county in Yuan Country, yet they only fulfilled some conditions, and the materials you mentioned would cost at least sixty or seventy million silver to procure."

Chen Ku said: "You came just in time. Now that I have awakened the 11th Transformation Map, I can create another avatar to assist you in setting up a branch of the Dan Yuan Association in Yan Capital to sell the Qiu Dragon Mansion’s pills. This will make earning money easier."

Er Lang nodded and said: "This is a good idea, Master."

Chen Ku laughed: "Also, I haven’t told you yet that after mastering the Green Dragon Transformation, I possess the Azure Dragon’s Dragon Ball, which can accelerate the growth of herbal Spirit Medicines. With this capability, the Dan Yuan Association can now source a substantial amount of herbal Spirit Medicines in addition to refining pills using demons and monsters. Once my Eighth Realm Evil Qi is sufficient, I can manifest the Green Dragon. So your second task upon return is to procure seeds of Treasured Medicines, Spirit Medicines, Top-grade Spirit Medicines, and even Holy Medicines. I will plant them in the medicinal garden of the Hero King Realm, and let the Azure Dragon water them day and night."

Er Lang was delighted: "If so, the Dan Yuan Association will earn even more money."

The more money earned, the more cultivation conditions for the Transformation Maps that can be bought for the Master, and the more Transformation Maps opened, the stronger the Master’s power — it’s a positive cycle.

Finally, Chen Ku accepted the two Dragon Elephant Particles Er Lang brought. After refining them, his Thirty-Six Dragon Power gained another layer.

He then instructed Er Lang to investigate matters concerning the opening of a Dan Yuan Association branch in Yan Capital City.

By evening.

A wisp of light smoke drifted into Chen Ku’s courtyard.

"Ah, the Loose Cultivator used the Evil Summoning Banner to capture demons and returned within just one day?"

Chen Ku saw the white qi that floated back; it was indeed the loose cultivator using the Gathering Spirit and Dispelling Qi technique. He entered the room, returned to human form, and handed the Evil Summoning Banner back to Chen Ku, saying:

"Reporting to my lord, on this entry into the Five Elements Mountain Range, I have recruited fifty Eighth Realm demons, one hundred Seventh Realm demons, three hundred Sixth Realm demons... the Evil Summoning Banner is now completely filled."

Chen Ku was astonished: "Are there really so many demons in the Five Elements Mountain Range?"

The loose cultivator nodded: "Beneath this place, the Five Elements Qi is rich, benefiting all beasts in initiating cultivation. I merely hung the Evil Summoning Banner at a location three thousand miles within the Five Elements Mountain Range, without even changing its position, and within a day, it was filled with demons."

Chen Ku looked at the Evil Summoning Banner, full of anticipation, and asked:

"Did you recruit any magical creatures?"

"Yes."

The loose cultivator said:

"There is a pure-blood Xuanwu of the Seventh Realm, a ’creature’ that has transformed from the Water Spirit Qi of the Five Elements Land. Though only of the Seventh Realm, it is an innate water spirit beast, unafraid of even some Eighth Realm peak demons within the Evil Summoning Banner."

"Hiss, a pure-blood Xuanwu?!"

Chen Ku was extremely delighted:

"Is my luck really this good this time?"

A creature shaped by Water Spirit Qi can’t even be called a demon anymore; it’s truly a darling of heaven and earth, a creation nurtured by nature.

Chen Ku immediately looked towards the seventh space within the Evil Summoning Banner.

And there it was, a strange beast entwined with turtle and snake forms, about the size of a water jar, with distinct colors, white turtle and black snake. Its four legs were coiled there, but the terrifying sacred spirit aura indeed forced down all the demons within the seventh space.

Visible, atop this little Xuanwu’s head, hung a rune that seemed to contain a world of water. Critically, when a demon attempted to attack it, the attack simply penetrated through the Xuanwu’s body.

The Xuanwu, in that instant, transformed its body into a flow of water.

Completely unscathed.

"Is this... akin to Tang Xuan’s ’Golden Mercury Form’ type of special cultivation body?"

Chen Ku focused his eyes.

He subconsciously thought of Xue Bailiu, who ranked first in strength at the academy.

His physique is the ’Xuanwu True Body’.

Yet it was unknown, compared to this true Xuanwu, the sacred spirit of heaven and earth, which physique was more authentic?

The more Chen Ku looked at this Xuanwu, the more he liked it.

Then, he asked the loose cultivator again: "You said there was not just one, but also..."

"There is another, an Eighth Realm demon. While its strength is not strong, it has an incredible innate divine ability. It has a snake’s body, two wings, lamb horns, and a tiger head..." the loose cultivator said: "My lord, you can see the eighth space."

Following the loose cultivator’s words, Chen Ku looked towards the eighth space.

This sight left him astounded, for there, in the eighth space, was a creature with a tiger’s head, lamb horns, and a snake’s tail, flapping its wings and opening a black hole-like large mouth, devouring an Eighth Realm six-legged camel.

"This is..."

Chen Ku softly said while gazing at the creature’s appearance:

"A snake form, Taotie head, this seems to be the ’Gluttonous Snake’ from the Dragon Abyss Natural History, containing the bloodlines of ancient strange beasts, Hua Snake and Taotie."

"Exactly, it is this beast," the loose cultivator said. "When I captured it with the Evil Summoning Banner, there were forty-nine Eighth Realm demons inside. On my way back, five Eighth Realm demons died from mutual slaughter, and the bodies were all devoured by this Gluttonous Snake. This is a demon that completely cultivates through ’devouring’, with an extremely fast cultivation speed. It holds the all-devouring Taotie bloodline, as well as the all-digesting Hua Snake bloodline. The combination forms the Gluttonous Snake; though its bloodline is impure, its all-consuming innate divine ability rivals that of its ancestors."

Chen Ku’s eyes slightly shimmered.

"Just a transformation diagram is vacant. Kill it and try, and it’s clear what divine abilities it possesses."

With those words.

The person had already arrived with the loose cultivator in the Hero King Realm.

A wave of the hand, the Evil Summoning Banner was shaken open.

With a boom!

A seven-foot-high creature with a tiger’s head, lamb horns, and a snake’s tail appeared here. Abruptly changing its environment, it looked startled, then...

It looked towards the distant Chen Ku and the loose cultivator.

Under its perception, the auras of the two humans not far away seemed not very powerful.

More importantly, from Chen Ku’s body, it sensed an incredibly rich blood and flesh essence qi, derived from Chen Ku’s refinement of the Twenty Layers Shaking God Dragon Elephant Decision, resulting in his flesh filled with twenty Dragon Elephant Particles, like twenty great Golden Cores, along with the Flood Dragon Transformation’s root bone enhancement.

The Gluttonous Snake saw this and, in an instant, drooled all over the ground. The next moment...

Its massive mouth opened!

The seven-foot body, yet the mouth opened to about seventy zhang, like a huge black cloth bag, swallowed towards Chen Ku.

[There is a Gluttonous Snake intending harm to the master; killing it would gain the Eighth Realm Evil Qi]

Chen Ku’s face remained calm as stagnant water, watching the expanse of darkness swallowing towards himself. He raised his hand, gently pressing down with a palm.

It was...

Palm Heaven!
