Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

Chapter 130 Nine Colored Deer

A total of two carriages drove into the large courtyard of Chen Ku's house, and each carriage was loaded with a small iron bucket.

In the iron barrel was a shiny ore that looked like a lump of coal, with faint patterns on it. It emitted a cold light under the sunlight.

This is the Iron Mother.

It is a material that is harder than pig iron. It is a rock-forming mineral and the best choice for making top-level weapons.

If a hundred pounds of iron is added to any weapon, the hardness of the weapon can be increased several times.

This iron mother, like the black sand, is an ore with extremely high mass density, so the iron mother weighs 20,000 kilograms.

The firewood and iron shop only used two horse-drawn carriages to deliver it.

Chen Ku's attention was not on the iron mother, but on the horse pulling the cart. The iron mother weighed 20,000 jin, and there were two carriages. After they were separated, each carriage weighed 10,000 jin. What kind of horse was this?

He saw that this horse was not a Tayan horse. There were no scales on its ribs or hooves. Its body was short and thick, and its entire body was covered with dragon-like muscles. Its appearance alone gave people a feeling of explosive power.

Chen Ku searched the demon encyclopedia in his mind and identified it.

"This is a nagama, a kind of wild horse that is specially used for carrying heavy loads. Although it is not fast and has only the strength of a first-level demon, it is naturally good at carrying heavy loads. Even in the army, this kind of horse is used to transport military supplies and food."

Chen thought hard, the most common horse can carry 10,000 jin, if it is a second-level demon, will it be stronger? If he can kill one and refine it into the Stepping Swallow Horse, wouldn’t it be possible to make the Stepping Swallow Horse stronger?

"Manager Chen, the items have been delivered. Once you sign for them, we'll take our leave."

The men unloaded the 20,000-jin iron nut.

Chen Ku looked at the 20,000-jin iron nut and directly carried 10,000 jin into the house.

All conditions are met.

The fourth change diagram can finally be completed.

[The final condition for the fourth transformation diagram has been met - Ten Thousand Jin Iron Mother]

"Sacrifice!"

Chen Ku’s voice spread across the changing graph.

Suddenly.

Ten thousand kilograms of iron ore in the ten iron barrels displayed around him suddenly disappeared into thin air.

At this moment, Chen Ku thought.

Then, the last sacrificial power transformed from the Iron Mother hit the fourth scroll of the transformation diagram like a ray of meteor light.

Seems to be activated.

Wow~~
Suddenly, the scroll of the fourth change diagram slowly unfolded and hung down in Chen Ku's mind, like a blank scroll hanging in the void.

[The fourth transformation diagram has been completed]

[The owner of the diagram has completed the fourth transformation diagram, and the range of evil spirit perception has been increased to 'ten miles in radius']

Chen Ku was delighted.

This was what he had been looking forward to for a long time.

After the fourth variation chart comes out, not only will he have one more variation slot, he no longer has to feel constrained or nervous about variations.

Chen Ku was excited.

Without hesitation, he hung the variation of Stepping on a Swallow Horse on the fourth picture.

this moment.

He felt the four changes and blessings on his body.

The first picture is a marten, the second picture is a fire-mouthed kettle, the third picture is Zhao Chuanzu, and the fourth picture is a stepping swallow horse.

After one more picture position was added.

All of a sudden I feel that what I have to do is no longer restricted by the limitations of the map, and it becomes extremely tense.

Now, he can do multiple things on multiple lines.

On one hand, he asked Hua Huyou to go into the mountains to search for treasures, on the other hand, he asked Huozuihu to refine the elixir on his own, and on the other hand, he asked Zhao Chuanzu to deduce the method of martial arts...

"The abilities of the Stepping Swallow Horse are too limited. If I can refine some more things into it, such as the Nian Beast, I can let the Stepping Swallow Horse go into the water to search for treasures in the water for me. That would be a four-line operation."

Chen Ku looked at the four changing diagrams.

If you want to refine the form next, it would be best to add two more demon beasts in addition to the Stepping Swallow Horse and the Nian Beast, and refine the four changes into one in total. Then use the evil spirit of the 'Three Realms Big Nian Beast' as the 'fetal form', there will be a great chance of refining a Three Realms underwater beast with multiple abilities.

"Let me see which evil spirits related to water monsters are in the evil spirits I have accumulated in the Tujieyuan."

Ever since there was a place called Huozui Mountain where one could brush up on evil spirits and use them as 'dog food' to feed the transformation and growth, Chen Ku cleverly preserved the evil spirits of the demons with various abilities slaughtered in the Slaughterhouse.

During the great migration of demons and beasts that year, he had killed several aquatic demons, including a Tail Hammer Crocodile.

Looking at the evil shadow of the Tail Hammer Crocodile.

This thing looks like it has a round hammer growing on its tail. The tail is its natural weapon.

When encountering an enemy underwater, a crocodile will swing its tail, and the big hammer on its tail can exert a force of tens of thousands of pounds underwater.

Basically, with this 'tail hammer', it can be regarded as a 'large first-level predator' among the first-level demons underwater.

Chen Ku did not choose to transform this tail hammer crocodile at that time, mainly because he had a crocodile transformation, and just transforming a tail hammer crocodile would not be of much use to him, so he chose to keep it and use it as a material for refining in the future. There are also two water demon evil spirits.

One is the spinning turtle. This thing has no attack capability at all. It is said that it was not originally produced in Ji State, but in the strange water of Yuan State.

Its appearance is similar to that of an ordinary turtle, but its color is red and black, and it has the head of a bird and the tail of a poisonous snake.

Its cry sounds like wood being cut.

The reason why Yaowangtang wants to kill this thing is that its tortoise shell is not only invulnerable to swords and guns, but can also prevent deafness after being made into medicine.

The reason why Chen Ku didn't choose it was because it also had obvious shortcomings.

That is the nature of turtles, they are very slow. If it is added to his body, even though he has the defensive power of the black turtle's shell, it will also slow him down...

But if you are practicing physical training, you don’t have to worry about it.

Not only can the changes complement each other, but they can also eliminate some disadvantageous changes. By evolving according to the principle of 'survival of the fittest', one can get the near-perfect 'creation' that Chen Ku needs.

"Unfortunately, I have to wait. The more than one hundred volcanic evil spirits that the flower mink brought back last time have already been used by me to upgrade the fire mouth pot and the stepping swallow horse. The little Nian beast has used up more than half of them..."

Now, there are only thirty-four first-level evil spirits left in his body, which are totally insufficient to cultivate the spiral turtle and tail hammer crocodile to the third level of transformation.

although,

It is not impossible to forcibly refine your body.

But that would lower the probability of successful form refining, and make his only third-level Nian beast evil spirit go to waste.

that's it.

Chen Ku chose to wait for the marten to come back.

So he walked out of the house first.

He finished work on the sixth day of the New Year and took three more days off. Today is already the ninth day. The bad luck period is over and he can finally go out without worry.

However, after Chen Ku walked out of the house, he did not rush to go to work at Yaowang Hall, but came to Huiyi Building first.

The heads of the fourteen Ping An Dao monsters were handed over to Hui Yi Lou.

"Two in the Xuanguan realm, twelve in the Neiqi realm..."

The counter man at the Gray Building looked at the ghostwriter codenamed "Erlang" with slight shock.

"You killed all of them alone?"

After Chen Ku changed his body shape, he still took the initiative to lower his bamboo hat and said, "Whether I killed him alone or with help, does it matter? Doesn't the Gray Clothes Tower only recognize the head?"

The counter man was silent for a moment, then said, "Your Excellency is right. The Gray Clothes Building only recognizes heads."

He counted and verified the fourteen heads and found that they were undoubtedly the evil people of Heian Dao. In his mind, there were traces of the evil sorcerers of Heian Dao practicing evil magic.

"Among these two people in the Xuanguan realm, one is at the first level of Xuanguan, and the other one is at the second level of Xuanguan. One is priced at three thousand, and the other is priced at four thousand... As for the twelve heads of the Neiqi realm, their strengths also vary. Some have reached the great perfection of Neiqi, while others are in the late stage of Neiqi... Adding up all the heads, these fourteen heads are worth a total of twenty-one thousand eight hundred taels of reward. My Huiyi Building will take eight hundred taels. Here are the silver notes for twenty-one thousand taels. Please count them." The man at the counter took the heads and took out the silver notes.

Chen Ku accepted the 20,000 yuan note and asked curiously:

"Actually, I'm very curious, how does the Gray Clothes Building judge the strength of the dead by looking at their heads?"

The counter gentleman lowered his hat and chuckled, "Every industry has its own secrets. Since Gray Clothes Building is in this business, it naturally has its own unique methods to verify it. I can't tell you this."

Wherever there are people, there are transactions. Restaurants sell wine and food, pharmacies sell pills, and the Gray Clothes Building sells human heads.

Chen Ku listened to the other party's words. Since it involved industry secrets, he knew he couldn't ask any more questions.

Before leaving, he said:

"The bounty list has been updated, give me a new one to look at."

The counter man took out a new bounty list from under the table, handed it to Chen Ku, and said, "It's free."

Chen Ku gently opened it and took a look.

He discovered that his 10,000 taels reward was still there, but it was marked with the words "extremely dangerous" below.

It seems that after he killed one of the ghostwriters who wanted to take action against him before, he was afraid to take action against him because of his strength and reputation.

Turn up again.

The bounty price for the Ping An Dao monster had not changed, but on the bounty list, Chen Ku suddenly saw something he had not seen last time.

"Nine-Colored Deer? A reward of 500,000 taels?"

Chen Ku raised his eyebrows and looked at the counter gentleman, saying:
"Is there such a strange beast in Baojiao County?"

The Nine-Colored Deer is recorded in the "Demon Illustrated Book" and ranks 99th on the list of dragon-like beasts.

It is said that this deer is born with a pair of snow-white antlers, can absorb the essence of heaven and earth, its fur can change into nine colors with nature, and it can understand human language.

If someone could obtain the pair of snow-white antlers of the Nine-Colored Deer, grind them into powder, and combine them with the heart of any creature to make a pill, he would be able to understand the animal language of that creature.

This is not counting.

The nine-colored fur of the Nine-Colored Deer is of astronomical value. It is said that after reeling off the silk cocoon, it can be made into a kind of "treasure clothes" that can change color, size and shape anytime and anywhere.

The counter man said slowly, "Well, it is said that a businessman saw a nine-colored deer in a forest in Baojiao County, and then a wealthy family offered a reward of 500,000 taels to anyone who could hunt the nine-colored deer."
