Gazing at the great opportunity presented by the Transformation Diagram, Chen Ku pondered.
Could he really turn into a dragon if he successfully replicated the ancient mythos, gathering the so-called nine Ancient Divine Beasts and the Emperor's Dragon Qi? Would it be the dragon of the True Dragon Emperor?
But Chen Ku felt his liver tremble just looking at the names of the Totem Divine Beasts revered by the Nine Tribes. Bai Ze and Qing Si were already daunting enough, let alone Zhu Yin and Nine Spirits Prime Lion being among them.
How immensely powerful must the "True Dragon" formed by the fusion of these earth-shattering divine beasts and Primordial Great Evils be?
Then he looked at what was needed as the embryo for refining shape.
Emperor's Dragon Qi? This is the first time I've felt the conditions of the Transformation Diagram are astonishingly harsh. What does this mean? Kill an Emperor first? Then slay nine Ancient Primordial Divine Beast Great Evils in order to complete the True Dragon Transformation. Could it be any more ridiculously exaggerated?
Chen Ku felt overwhelmed by these conditions.
Then, he couldn't help but ask, "I'm not an ancient Emperor, where would I get such Divine Power? To kill those nine great Divine Beasts to assemble the dragon form, can't I use the bloodline of their descendants instead?"
He remembered that within the bloodline of the Skinny Dog, there was a trace of the "Sun-swallowing Dog."
So he tentatively tried placing the Third Realm Dragon Qi in the spot for 'fetus transformation refining shape.' Then, he first hung up a Second Realm Skinny Dog, and finally, he sequentially hung up a lion-headed catfish Evil Qi, a Yellow Ox Evil Qi, and a python Evil Qi.
Should I give it a try? First, simulate it to see if there's any chance or possibility of success. If it's possible, then it means I can create a lower-quality dragon first.
[Diagram Master inserted Skinny Dog, lion-headed catfish, Yellow Ox, and python, wishing to use Third Realm Dragon Qi of the Nation's Fortune as the embryo for 'fetus transformation refining shape,' initiating simulation...]
[Simulating...]
[Simulation complete]
[This attempt at 'fetus transformation refining shape' has a one in ten thousand probability of resulting in a Third Realm Supreme Transformation 'Hui Dragon']
(Diagram Master can improve the probability of a successful 'fetus transformation refining shape' by increasing the number of Transformation Charts, inserting higher quality beasts with appropriate bloodlines, adding higher-tier Dragon Qi, etc.)
A one in ten thousand probability? This meant that only after ten thousand attempts might one succeed. And it's still a Hui Dragon... Hui Dragon... Indeed, it's the lowest tier of dragon. In myths and legends, the five hundred little dragons that the Golden-winged Great Roc is said to eat daily—that must be this thing. This is far too low-tier.
However, a thought stirred in his heart: A one in ten thousand possibility implies that the lower-tier path is viable. From the Transformation Diagram's hints, it's just that I currently don't have enough transformations possessing the bloodlines of Totem Divine Beast descendants, and I also have an insufficient number of Transformation Charts. That's why I can't even cobble together the lowest-tier Hui Dragon.
But judging from the Transformation Diagram's description of "True Dragons" in this world, Chen Ku figured that even the lowest-level Hui Dragon, merely by being associated with the word 'dragon,' shouldn't be a simple transformation. Didn't he see that its transformation quality was labeled 'Supreme Quality'? Even the Flower Fox Mink was only 'excellent.' Doesn't it just mean that using descendants of the Peacock Shrimp Toad, Bai Ze, Qing Si, Sun-swallowing Dog, Nine-tailed Catfish, Nine Spirits Prime Lion, Golden Winged Great Peng, Mermaid, and Zhu Yin—these nine types of Ancient Divine Beasts—would yield a higher success rate?
Chen Ku pondered in his heart: It's essentially just the nine major categories: shrimp, deer, ox, dog, catfish, lion, eagle, fish, and snake. I'm a wealthy man now. If I target these nine types of Demons for purchase, how could I be afraid of not encountering those with the right bloodlines? Even a common Skinny Dog running wild on the mountain has a one-in-a-billion trace of the Moon Eating Heavenly Dog bloodline, a descendant of the Sun-swallowing Dog. I refuse to believe I won't encounter descendants of other Demons! Putting other things aside, that Nine-Colored Deer is related to deer and can understand Beast Language; it perfectly resembles something with the bloodline of Bai Ze!
He immediately listed the Nine-Colored Deer as a must-capture target.
Then, there's the number of Transformation Charts.
Chen Ku looked at the City God Lord's Hand Bone in his hand, its spirit already suppressed and dispersed.
"Sacrifice!"
WHOOSH.
The City God Lord's Hand Bone in his hand instantly turned into a handful of bone ash and scattered into the air. However, a multicolored mass of power lit up from within the Hand Bone and drilled into the Transformation Diagram in Chen Ku's mind.
[Fifth Transformation Chart cultivation conditions: two requirements met]
[Complete awakening conditions: Ten Thousand Taels of Gold, Ten Thousand Taels of Silver Essence, One Jin of Incense Qi, mastery of an Ultimate Skill Level Martial Art, one stream of Four Realm Evil Energy]
Chen Ku looked at the conditions for the fifth chart. Over this time, after incorporating his own and others' transformations, he had actually acquired several Ultimate Skill Level Martial Arts at the great achievement stage. Two of them came from Yan Longhao: the Nine Dragons Union at great achievement and the Spear-shedding Technique at great achievement.
Four Realm Evil Energy...
Chen Ku looked at what was in his hands. Can't get it back?
The Fourth Realm 'Suppression' Evil Qi he had used to suppress the spirit of Duan Mingbi of the City God Temple had completely transformed into a 'Suppressing Talisman'...
[Suppressing Talisman: Can continue to suppress Evil Qi below the Fourth Realm (nine uses remaining)]
It can actually still be used nine more times.
However, this meant that to gather the requirements for the Fifth Transformation Chart, he would have to find a way to kill another Fourth Realm Expert. Thinking about the upcoming clashes between the three major gang conglomerates, it seemed that whether he was willing or not, he would have to get involved and face some individuals from the two major gangs.
The last thing missing is Silver Essence. Silver Essence... this stuff is said to be the essence formed after silver is purified, hence the name 'Silver Essence.' It's said that it takes ten taels of silver to produce one tael of Silver Essence.
Chen Ku calculated: Ten thousand taels of Silver Essence is equivalent to one hundred thousand taels of silver. That's not even counting the premium for refining; I estimate it would take more than one hundred thousand taels of silver to purchase it.
He shook his head.
