Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog

Chen Ku also became solemn and said, "The Hall Master’s meaning is, someone wants to attack me halfway?"

"Yes, and quite a few, because you’ve also drawn attention over in Yuan Country. Not long ago, two Qi Cultivators were killed by a mysterious person on a small hill outside the city. Consequently, several Yuan Country spies were uncovered in the city, and their intelligence had long designated you as the primary assassination target, not wanting you to appear on the battlefield."

Murong Cheng explained:

"There are also some contemporaries with ideas because you’ve suddenly risen to fourth place in Dragon Abyss’s rankings, aside from this, don’t forget, there’s also Hua Yuexian who left you with threats that day."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ku did not expect that, although he had always walked outside with an External Body, due to the rapid advancement of his cultivation, his brilliance was becoming increasingly dazzling, making people jealous and targeted.

This is both a bad thing and also proves that he has truly entered into the top-tier sequence of this world. Some people feel that his presence is quite an eyesore and want to eliminate him.

"Alright, then we’ll set off today. I have nothing to pack."

Chen Ku said:

"Everything will be left to the Hall Master."

As he spoke, he was already prepared for the troublesome journey to Destruction Tower.

Murong Cheng, seeing this, also urged comfort, "There’s no need to worry too much, because knowing your talent, three of your senior brothers have been dispatched from the Tower to meet you. Even the Tower Master is prepared, in case of an extreme situation, to transfer over and personally receive you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ku felt a bit overwhelmed.

Destruction Tower Master, the first of the Nine Sects, is reputed to be the number one in Dragon Abyss Jianghu, excluding the Imperial Court’s Li Shentong.

It’s said that they have reached the pinnacle of the Thirteenth Realm, Shattering Void, and are just one step away from the Fourteenth Realm, Cave Mansion.

"All right, no need to say more, prepare for a quarter of an hour, then we will transfer through the Divine Martial Mountain’s Martial Temple to Famen County, which is closest to Destruction Tower, then walk twenty thousand li to reach the sect."

After Murong Cheng finished speaking, he let Chen Ku prepare.

Chen Ku indeed had nothing to prepare, thought for a bit, and finally left an External Body in Divine Martial Mountain, then walked out.

Moments later, the two entered the Martial Temple behind Divine Martial Mountain.

After one two hours.

They were transferred to Famen County.

This area is Qi State of Dragon Abyss Province, closest to the Central Plains, furthest from the border between the two countries.

However, as Chen Ku and Murong Cheng stepped out of the Famen County Martial Temple.

His Transformation Diagram began to flow down with rows of text:

[Tang Qujiang intends harm against the master, subduing him can obtain the Eleventh Realm Evil Qi]

Tang Qujiang?

The former fourth on the Heroic List? Was pushed down to fifth by himself?

If it was the previous Chen Ku, perhaps even with the Transformation Diagram’s alert, he might not have been able to specifically sense where the other person was.

But after the transformation with Jin Xun, relying on his own Divine Sense of the Tenth Realm Divinity Transformation, his Qi Mechanism and Divine Sense resonating with each other, combined with the Nine-Colored Deer from the Golden Dragon Transformation’s sudden impulse, he instantly captured a strong Qi Mechanism, though subtle, it already mirrored in his eyes.

That’s the long river outside Famen County.

In the middle of the river, there’s a flat boat.

A young man in white on the boat, drinking tea, a treasured sword resting in his arms, self-pouring and drinking, suddenly, he sensed something, looked back towards Famen County, chuckled lightly:

"Tang Qujiang is here, challenges Brother Chen."

Though seemingly lightly chuckling, in fact, this phrase sound, instantly, like a Heavenly Sound in Martial Arts Heaven and Earth, spreads over dozens of li, falls into the ears of everyone in Famen County.

Tang Qujiang, pushed down from fourth on the Heroic List by Chen Ku, now, with the identity of fifth place, initiates an invitation of ’genius battle’ against Chen Ku.
