Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 590 - 378: Eleventh Transformation Diagram (Part 2)
Furthermore, Chen Ku’s Willful Weapon was damaged by Tang Xuan’s sword while in the Martial Training Camp. He was pondering whom to seek for repairs when he realized that the ’Nine-Nine Forbidden Patterns’, one of the four courses prepared for them by the Destruction Tower Academy this semester, was like a pillow delivered to a dozing man.
After the Nine-Nine Forbidden Patterns comes the Four No Forbidden Array, a large forbidden skill array needing array pattern carvings. Upon examining it briefly, it became clear that if suitable ’earth, water, fire, wind’ forces are found for the array base, it can prohibit all forces containing earth, water, fire, and wind within a certain scope.
This is undoubtedly a grand array targeting Qi Cultivators in Yuan Country.
After all, among the Qi Cultivator camps, eight out of ten people’s spirit roots and spells are related to these four forces.
Thus, it appears that the Destruction Tower carefully selected the teaching materials for Divine Martial Hall’s students.
Below that, the "Life Rebirth Forbidden Technique" and "Qi Prohibition Gold Wound" are both major prohibitions targeting oneself, one can use this to rebirth the Cultivation of one’s Spiritual Soul and Life Skill Body.
For instance, transforming spiritual power into ’blood and flesh Qi’ can restore life force at critical moments, and under special circumstances, it might even allow breaking through one’s limits via this prohibition.
To put it plainly, it’s like dismantling the east wall to repair the west wall, supplementing the flesh with soul or vice versa, allowing spirit and body to interchange.
But the forbidden aspect is also clearly marked.
Everything produced by the Destruction Tower is forbidden technique.
This Life Rebirth Forbidden Technique, if used without achieving the Great Achievement Stage, might inadvertently fuse the spirit entirely into the body, achieving ’Spirit and Body Unity’, or conversely, turn a living person into a ’soul body’.
The last is the Qi Prohibition Gold Wound, a healing prohibition that can seal wounds temporarily through True Gang Qi, but afterward the breakout will be even fiercer.
Chen Ku twitched his lips:
"Why are the Destruction Tower’s methods all such things?"
He was somewhat disappointed.
Among them, the ’Forbidden Technique Finger’ he wished to learn was absent, though he understood it well as one of Destruction Tower’s four foundational inheritances, it holds power to restrain laws.
To learn it, he would need to further foster relations with Instructor Elder Murong Cheng, and perhaps through him truly become a disciple of Destruction Tower, then he might have a chance.
At that moment, while Chen Ku was browsing through the ten hall textbooks.
There was another knock on his door, old Zhou went to open it, and a voice from the door rang out:
"The specifications of an Immortal Institute disciple’s residence are indeed different."
It was Helan Qing’s voice.
He clicked his tongue.
Hearing the voice, Chen Ku also came out from the inner room, holding the scroll behind his back, he cheerfully greeted: "You guys are here." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"Ah, upon visiting Brother Chen, I found that you have a place meant for living, while the Upper Academy, although called upper, is just a small courtyard, unlike your place, with servants and cooks." Helan Qing exclaimed enviously.
"You’ve just had too many good days." Xiao Tianzuo shook his head and chuckled: "If you dislike it, you can completely move back to Yan Capital. After all, going to school outside the city every morning will do."
"Forget it, I hate waking up early the most." Helan Qing replied with a broad grin: "Besides, what’s the fun of living alone back in Yan Capital?"
Chen Ku noticed they also had scrolls and smiled as he asked: "Seems like you all received practice materials too."
Talking about this made faces light up with excitement.
Xu Fanfeng chirped excitedly: "Indeed, I received the main practice textbook from Primordial Yang Hall, including two Divine Skills and one Divine Art. From the Old Dragon Hall, there came two Sword Dao Divine Skills, and one Sword Qi Heart Method, totaling six Divine Skill Level Absolute Skills, which was unimaginable before. I never thought in my lifetime I could have such fortune to practice six Divine Skills at once!"
Before this, the only divine skill he practiced was the Hanging Temple’s Six-foot Golden Body, but now he received six equal-level inheritances.
Chen Ku smiled and stated: "I received it too, Primordial Yang Hall offers ’Great Purple Yang Handprint’, ’Sun Nine-character Mantra’, and ’Nine Yang Divine Skill Upper Volume’; Old Dragon Mountain offers ’Sword Qi Rain’, ’All Swords Return to the Origin’, and ’Sword Heart Clarity’, right."
Xu Fanfeng chuckled: "Almost forgot Brother Chen, you’ve selected all ten halls."
During their conversation, Xie Qixing sighed and remarked:
"I truly envy the mindset of both of you, having talent qualifications. Facing so many divine skills arouses only excitement, while people like us with fair qualifications feel overwhelmed seeing divine skills from both main and selected halls. The main hall’s three divine skills need to be in the Great Achievement Stage by the end of semester, selected halls’ three divine skills need at least one in Great Achievement, two in Minor Achievement, to even pass. There’s also the General Hall’s tactics, weaponry, transport, geography, military system, city planning evaluations, eventually needing to enter Martial Arts Heaven and Earth simulation with at least ’good’ rating, otherwise... failing graduation and starting as low soldiers, thinking of next year pressure is immense!"
Old Six Xing Yao concurred, giving a weak smile.
This really is the first thought of most who have some qualifications upon receiving many Divine Skills.
In the Divine Martial Hall, people like them are ’average’, facing the requirement of mastering four divine skills in a year, it critically tests the qualifications.
Divine Arts and Skills, are labeled as divine because they surpass an ordinary person’s aptitude in comprehension and cultivation, requiring a threshold.
Someone may achieve entry-level within a day, while others may not touch the threshold in ten years, depends on talent and qualifications.
"What’s the pressure, we have me, Qingxuan, big brother, and Brother Chen here, if you really can’t graduate, you simply become small soldiers under us four, protected by us." Xu Fanfeng, the old seventh, spoke lightly, seeming to tease, but in reality relieving their burden, offering to back them up.
This was when.
Cook Yang emerged, saying: "Sir, today’s meal is ready."
Chen Ku laughed, inviting everyone: "Perfect timing, it’s mealtime, try the Immortal Institute’s cuisine."
After a sumptuous feast.
Helan Qing lamented: "Not surprisingly, the cook from the Immortal Institute seems to have more skill than even the famed chef of our household, the Imperial Court truly treats you guys as treasured, possibly inviting famous chefs nationwide just to cook for you."
Chen Ku chuckled: "I hear there will be a martial test at mid-term, top performers have ten chances for academy elevation, you guys still have opportunities."
They nodded in agreement.
Having conversed with Chen Ku.
"Alright, it’s quite late today, in two days begins the official hall practice time, then for every seven days, only one day can be rested, the rest six days will be rigorous practice and training, causing a busy schedule, now is best to grasp the rare free time," Xiao Tianzuo concluded.
They departed.
After watching them leave, Chen Ku internally contemplated the martial arts of the ten grand halls again.
This was when.
Another knock came on the door.
Chen Ku was at the door, so he opened it himself, surprisingly, the person appearing was Er Lang from Qiu Dragon Mansion, he smiled towards Chen Ku and said:
"Master."
"Did something happen in Qiu Dragon Mansion?" Chen Ku was slightly astonished as Er Lang had found his way to Divine Martial Mountain.
Er Lang waved his hand, saying: "Ever since Master destroyed the God of the Yellow Heaven revival plan in Baojiao County, Baojiao County went dormant instantly, lacking interest in expanding into Qiu Dragon Mansion, while Yuan Country’s Qi Cultivators are busy attacking the two major states to the northwest of Dragon Abyss, there’s still no attention towards Qiu Dragon Mansion’s barren lands, my visit is to specifically... "
Er Lang smiled while taking out a storage pouch:
"Bring you the remaining sacrifices needed for the 11th Transformation Map and Dragon Elephant Particles."
"In the Hero King Realm."
After bringing Er Lang inside, the two entered the Hero King Realm.
Er Lang dumped out many materials onto the ground.
Soon, the 11th Transformation Map in Chen Ku’s mind began to glow.
