Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 458 - 297: Exploring the Fourteen Realms Magical Treasure
Woo woo woo~~~
The scorching high temperature made the environment inside the Fire Beak Mountain seem like the apocalypse.
Chen Ku, with great caution, carefully maneuvered the Fire Extinguishing Pearl to touch the magma.
As soon as his fingers touched the magma.
A miraculous scene unfolded.
It was as if the magma beneath his fingers was pushed apart by a ball of air, avoiding his fingers, and keeping the magma inches away from them.
He saw clearly that the transparent shield, like air, was released from the Fire Extinguishing Pearl, like a layer of transparent clothing draped over him.
[Evil Qi of Fire intends to harm the master, subduing it can gain Seventh Realm Evil Qi]
At the same time, Chen Ku also heard the reminder from within the Transformation Diagram.
"Indeed, this layer of magma is formed from the Seventh Realm level Fire Evil Qi."
He wished to test how long it would take for his current body to refine a Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi if he allowed it inside his body.
He then controlled the Fire Extinguishing Pearl’s Fire Avoidance True Qi to reveal an opening, allowing the Fire Evil Qi from the magma to flow toward him.
[A stream of Fire Evil Qi enters the body... suppressing and refining... expected to be fully refined in two hours]
Words appeared on the Transformation Diagram.
"Hmm..."
Chen Ku let out a painful groan.
The Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi felt like a Seventh Realm martial expert had struck inside his body, with True Qi breaking into his lungs and meridians, though his physical constitution and the Fire Beak Pot’s fire-resistant physique, as well as the Five Elements Peacock Fire Resistance, greatly lessened the harm to his body.
Even so, refining a Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi still required two hours.
"Not bad."
Chen Ku suppressed the pain, sat cross-legged directly on the spot, operated the Supreme Heaven Heart Technique to reduce the pain, and began to internalize and suppress the Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi while calculating silently in his heart:
"Refining one Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi takes two hours, in a day, that’s twelve Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi. I currently have five Seventh Realm transformations, each requiring forty-five bits of equivalent-level Evil Qi to cultivate to the Transformation Level, which adds up to at least three hundred and fifteen Seventh Realm Evil Qi needed.
This means I’ll have to sit here day and night without rest for over a month, refining Evil Qi to bring the transformations like Champion Marquis, Tang Yulin, etc., to Perfection."
"But, that’s the speed under normal circumstances."
Chen Ku, after passing through the Two Realms Mountain Range, had already discovered the Yuan Country’s one hundred thousand troops stationed there and knew his time was limited; thus, he understood there was a faster way to cultivate.
Two hours later.
[Diagram Master successfully subdued and refined a Fire Beak Pot Evil Qi, acquiring one Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi]
He watched a fiery red streak of Evil Qi merge into the Transformation Diagram.
Gulp~
Chen Ku first swallowed a Wood Emperor True Qi Pill to recover the True Qi consumed in refining a Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi, then looked at the sixth Seventh Realm Evil Qi he had just refined next to the Transformation Diagram.
He directly removed the Six-Eared Macaque from the Ninth Transformation Diagram and replaced it with this freshly refined Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Evil Qi.
[Fire Beak Pot Transformation!]
[Fire Beak Pot Transformation·Shapeshifting]
[Shapeshifting Part: Pot Body (Storage Fire)]
Chen Ku saw the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Transformation; the first Shapeshifting came with the ability of pot body storage fire, which greatly delighted him. He then returned again to the magma, using the Fire Extinguishing Pearl’s Fire Avoidance True Qi, to collect another stream of Fire Evil Qi.
This is where the Fire Extinguishing Pearl’s key lies.
Without this fifty thousand Martial Destiny Fire Extinguishing Pearl, he would have no way to approach the Seventh Realm magma; even extending a finger down could instantly melt him.
After all, this was a large area of magma formed by Seventh Realm flames, spanning two to three hundred meters like a small lake.
He could withstand an attack of True Qi from a Seventh Realm expert.
But under no circumstances could he submerge his body into this magma filled with Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi.
However, the Fire Extinguishing Pearl provided protection, allowing him to absorb the fire Qi strand by strand.
He once again used the Fire Extinguishing Pearl to absorb another Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi.
[A Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi invades... Diagram Master is refining... estimated to finish refining in one hour]
Chen Ku was overjoyed:
"Indeed, after transforming part of the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot’s pot body, my speed of refining Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi doubled."
He knew his idea was correct.
So he continued to emulate this method, having the Fire Extinguishing Pearl filter the vast range of Fire Evil Qi, only allowing one stream inside...
Soon, half a day passed.
When Chen Ku led the tenth Fire Evil Qi into his body.
Crack~
The Fire Extinguishing Pearl hanging around his neck actually developed a crack; although it could still release Fire Avoidance True Qi, it showed signs of breaking, causing Chen Ku to feel a pang of distress:
"I’ve already been using it sparingly, yet it’s still depleting this quickly?"
The Martial Temple’s introduction to the Fire Extinguishing Pearl was very clear; it could withstand a burn from Seventh Realm flames for up to one hour.
Chen Ku only activated it when he went into the magma to collect Evil Qi, and yet, after ten times, a crack appeared.
"I estimate that I’ve already exhausted one-tenth of its Fire Avoidance capability."
He exhaled a breath:
"Fortunately, I’ve gathered nine streams of Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi; now I can elevate the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Transformation to the second level ’Shape-Shifted’..."
Once the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot is transformed,
it means that the Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi within the magma can no longer inflict any substantial damage upon him. He can freely harvest, refine, and the refining speed will be unprecedentedly enhanced.
"Inject the nine paths of Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Evil Qi, cultivate the second level of Fire Beak Pot!"
Like nine fiery meteors, the nine strands of Seventh Realm Evil Qi absorbed by Chen Ku within half a day were all projected into the Ninth Transformation Map, illuminating all parts of this Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Transformation.
[Fire Beak Pot Transformation·Shape-Shifted]
Suddenly, white smoke emanated from Chen Ku where he stood, and his body directly transformed into a small red teapot, emitting layers upon layers of clouds and flames, with a layer of auspicious clouds on the pot body.
[Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot]
[Abilities: Spout (Flame Spitting), Pot Body (Storage Fire), Pot Tube (Flowing Fire), Pot Handle (Fire Control), Pot Top (Fire Suppression)...]
[Innate seven magical treasures prohibition, capable of subduing all Seventh Realm flames, refining external objects to return Fire Essence]
"Ha, it’s done!"
Chen Ku shook his body back to his own appearance, but he already possessed all the abilities of the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot. Whether it’s Swallowing Fire or Flame Spitting, the Seventh Realm flames here can no longer harm him.
"The next task is to let the magma lake formed by this Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi create Chong Sha Qi against me."
This is the mechanism of the Transformation Map, which must have something to Chong Sha him, to kill it and obtain the Evil Qi.
If there is no Chong Sha.
It’s just a large expanse of flames and magma causing harm.
"Everything unfavorable to me is Evil Qi!"
Chen Ku muttered to himself, ready to jump directly into the magma. By then, the magma from all directions would naturally form a Chong Sha pattern against him, wanting to harm him and making him feel the malice of the entire magma lake.
But even with the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Transformation,
Chen Ku’s heart raced at the decision to jump into the magma.
After all, a single strand of Seventh Realm Fire Evil compared to the entire magma lake is completely incomparable, and if he jumps down, he estimates there could be tens of thousands of Seventh Realm Fire Evil rushing in.
Although the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot can restrain all Seventh Realm flames, it still has a capacity limit.
It’s impossible to swallow all the Seventh Realm Fire Evil from the Fourteen Realm Fire Beak Pot Magical Treasure turned Fire Beak Mountain below, not having such a large appetite and pot body, so when the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot reaches its limit, Chen Ku might still burn to death.
Finally,
he took a deep breath, firmly holding the Fire Extinguishing Pearl in his hand.
"Counting on you!"
Taking a step, bathed in the Fire Avoidance True Qi transmitted from the Fire Extinguishing Pearl, relying on the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Transformation, Chen Ku stepped directly into the magma.
Wow~~
Like a stone falling into a pond.
Chen Ku’s body directly submerged into the magma, seemingly like a person directly plummeting into a volcano and instantly vaporized without a trace.
But in fact, the moment Chen Ku jumped into the magma, he assumed the shape of the Fire Beak Pot.
At the same time, the magma from all directions washed over him like hot oil.
Wow~~
[There is Fire Evil harmful to the master; suppressing it can acquire... ten paths... fifty-three paths... ninety-one paths... two hundred thirty-five paths... four hundred eighty-nine paths... six hundred seventy-eight paths... nine hundred ninety-one paths... one thousand two hundred fifty-three... one thousand eight hundred ninety-six... three thousand nine hundred forty-one paths of Seventh Realm Evil Qi]
The Evil Qi alerts from the Transformation Map rapidly flickered, in almost the blink of an eye, it refreshed thousands of times...
Woof woof~~
As Chen Ku transformed into a Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot, the spout began to exhibit a formidable suction force, like a black hole, starting to absorb the surrounding Fire Evil Qi.
Only to see, from the massive hundred-meter-wide magma lake, a stream of magma fire emerged, being continually swallowed into Chen Ku’s mouth.
Feeling each magma stream rolling into the spout, Chen Ku’s mind calmed:
"Although I don’t know, how much magma with equivalent Seventh Realm Fire Evil Qi my Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot Transformation can hold at once, as long as I can still endure it, I am safe.
And once I feel unable to bear it, the Fire Extinguishing Pearl needs to immediately create a vacuum area, isolating me from continuing contact with the magma."
Feeling the continuous entry of magma into the pot body, forming harmful Fire Evil Qi on himself:
"Thirteen paths of Seventh Realm Fire Evil entering the body... fifty-one paths... eighty-nine paths..."
Taking advantage of the time he can still endure, having already jumped into the magma, Chen Ku wants to seize this opportunity to explore downwards in the magma, but not with the body, rather by using Xu En’s Hundred Feet Divine Consciousness to scan below.
The height where his pot body is located is still just a few feet below the magma surface, not falling further.
Because he knew early on, the flames of Fire Beak Mountain are stronger the deeper it goes, and now he can rely on the Seventh Realm Fire Beak Pot to remain below the magma, maintaining his safety. If he were to fall lower, once descending into the deeper layers of the Eighth Realm flame world, or even Ninth Realm flame world...
The consequence is imaginable.
"The Transformation Map indicates that this Fire Beak Mountain was originally a Fourteen Realms Magical Treasure from the Fire Virtue Sect’s Fire De Ancestor, because its True Spirit within the treasure, similar to an Artifact Spirit, was scattered, thus dropping to the Ninth Realm level. So, although its pot body is a Fourteen Realms Magical Treasure, it can only exert Ninth-level flames, meaning... the highest-level flame inside this Fire Beak Mountain is the Ninth Realm, unless its Artifact Spirit can be restored."
Chen Ku sent Xu En’s Hundred Feet Divine Consciousness downwards while estimating in his mind:
"This Fire Beak Mountain is a thousand meters high, approximately three hundred feet; from the crater to the magma surface, it’s about a hundred feet, meaning beneath the magma is two hundred feet to the Fire Beak Pot’s internal body, I wonder to what extent this ’Hundred Feet Divine Consciousness’ can explore?"
Accompanied by his Hundred Feet Divine Consciousness scanning a hundred feet below.
Only to see, in the perspective of the Divine Consciousness.
Going further down, another fifty feet, there was an expanse of blue fires.
"So this is the Eighth Realm flame? Blue? Perfection in blue? It’s only the Eighth Realm, then what color is the Ninth Realm flame?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
He continued to probe fifty feet below, thinking:
"Further down, wouldn’t it be the internal core of the Fire Beak Pot?"
