Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

Boom~~
Chen Ku sat cross-legged on a barren mountain, the eight gates in his body glowing brightly, like eight magical caves. The formation patterns in them were like dragons, and as they rotated, thousands and millions of true energy particles grew.

"It feels like there's a ferocious beast living inside your body?"

He felt his situation and couldn't help but mutter softly.

He didn't know how the formation accumulated power after the eye of other people's formations was completed. The accumulation process of his own Eight Gates Formation was too exaggerated, although there were immortal soldiers serving as the eye of the formation.

But Chen Ku still felt shocked that the surrounding area of ​​a barren mountain was completely sucked dry.

He was shocked and delighted by this, but also felt awe-inspiring.

"When practicing martial arts, when you reach the sixth level of formation network, you will carve a large formation in your body. The purpose is to allow the human body to gain more powerful strength. Through the special secret power formed by the combination of formation patterns, you can absorb and release essence faster, strengthen your body, and exert more terrifying killing power.

But this step is actually a double-edged sword.

After all, the human body is fragile, and the power of some large formations, formation patterns, and even forbidden patterns are too terrifying.

If it were just some ordinary large formations, it would be fine, as it would not put too much strain on the body. There are more benefits to setting up a large formation.

However, if it is an extremely powerful formation, although it can gain terrible killing power and other effects after being successfully deployed inside the body, it will also bring a greater burden to the body.

The reason is simple, just like a child dancing with a sword or a vase carrying a mountain, they can neither dance nor carry it. "

Chen Ku felt the Eight Gates Formation in his body.

"I have initially cultivated the Five Elements Body, and my physical strength is far beyond that of many sixth-level practitioners in the world, so I have the confidence to carve this God-shaking Heavenly King formation into my body. However, I have carved it, and now I have lit up the formation with the energy of a barren mountain, but... to what extent I can exert the power of this formation in my body, I still need to test it first."

One word fell.

Chen Ku stood up, feeling the Eight Gates Formation in his body, and took a step forward.

Talking to myself:

"The first gate of the eight gates, open, open!"

boom!
Almost in an instant, inside Chen Ku's head where no one could see, the first of the Eight Gates' formations, the Tianfu Formation, began to rumble and operate. All of a sudden, in the formation, countless starlight points connected together and turned into formation patterns. The formation patterns twisted and generated endless true energy, which penetrated Chen Ku's body!
Woo la~
An astonishing blood energy suddenly burst out from Chen Ku's body. The powerful oppressive force made the surrounding air whimper, as if it was about to be crushed by Chen Ku's momentum.

"This power..."

Chen Ku felt in disbelief the power transmitted to him after the door opened, as if his strength had doubled.

In order to test whether this feeling is real or not.

His naturally hanging palm suddenly stretched out from his sleeve, made a palm print, and flew up and slapped the ground beneath him.

Woohoo~~
As he slapped the ground with his palm, the endless flow of true energy in the opening formation was like thousands of soldiers and generals charging behind his palm print, accompanied by the sound of mountains and seas, pulling out a sonic boom in the sky, and then suddenly collapsing hundreds of feet of air.

Boom!

The ground beneath me suddenly sank nearly one meter, dust flew everywhere, and the earth shook.

Look down from above.

With one palm strike, a huge pit a hundred feet in size and half a foot deep was created on the ground. The print of the five fingers was huge and clear.

"Sure enough! It's not an illusion. After opening the first gate of the Eight Gates Formation, my Qi, stamina, and strength have all increased by more than double."

And this is just one of them.

If eight gates are opened in succession, wouldn't it be possible to unleash more than eight times the strength?

Chen Ku felt it for a while and wanted to try whether he could open a second door.

"Xiu Men, Feng Yang Formation, on my shoulders..."

He tried to open the second door.

boom……

He suddenly opened his eyes, feeling the tearing pain in his shoulder, and understood:
"The second door can be opened by force, but it will cause damage to the body. It is an excessive amount of pressure."

Call ~
After a simple test, Chen Ku knew his own level and stopped forcing himself to open the second door.

He said to himself:

"As expected, although the Eight Gates Formation is powerful, it also requires a stronger physique to be able to bear the load. In addition, I am only the core of the formation now, and have not yet gone through the 'cultivation of the formation'. I am not yet proficient in the use of the formation, so I cannot rashly activate more portals."

For a moment, Chen Ku had many arrangements in his mind regarding his next practice plan.

"The practice of Shaking the Gods Technique must begin."

This peerless martial art comes from the Huangjue Sect and is specifically designed to improve the physical fitness. Currently, both Qin Yuxian and Zhou Li have obtained extraordinary physiques because of practicing the Hanshen Jue.

If your physical strength is not enough to support the opening of more Eight Gates Formations, then practicing the God-Shaking Art is definitely the right choice.

"The 'Hundred Battles Cultivation Formation Method' obtained from the Champion Marquis is the fastest way for me to become familiar with the formation. If I want to use this method, I need to go to the battlefield. The battlefield is a bit far for me, but the more than 3,000 demons in the demon-summoning banner are also similar to a small battlefield. I can use this method as a substitute."

"But the demon-summoning banner is now empty..."

Thoughts flashed through Chen Ku's mind one after another.

After looking at the sky and estimating that there was still an hour left, he found the martial arts stele and took a look. He found that he still had 150,000 martial arts luck, including the 70,000 martial arts luck he got after defeating the Champion Marquis.

Then he looked at the huge tear about a foot long on his abdomen in the black and white Taoist robe.

asked:

"If I want to repair this black and white feathered monk's robe for the second time, will it cost the same as last time?"

If you still need 100,000 martial luck and a piece of material for a magic weapon.

Then he wouldn't want to fix it.

It's too expensive. Two hundred thousand yuan, including the two repairs, is enough to cost for casting a new piece of clothing.

Zhuge Wu seemed to be dozing off. After receiving the question, he blinked his sleepy eyes and looked at the Martial Arts Golden Order from the huge furnace. After seeing Chen Ku's question, he said, "It was torn by the Champion Marquis's Immortal Sword, right? Then how much did he see through it?"

The news of Chen Ku defeating Guan Junhou had not only caused a sensation in the Martial Temple, but had even spread to the Qiulong Mansion within a day.

"I sent it through the stone tablet? Master, can you take a look?" Chen Ku asked.

"No need. If you don't continue to enter the trial time of the martial arts world, I and other scholars will greet you in the Dacheng Hall later. I will make the judgment then." Zhuge Wu said.

Chen Ku heard this and thought:
"Welcome me?"

He took another look at his ranking on the Kyushu Genius List, which now ranked him 615th, and vaguely understood something.

I smiled slightly in my heart.

Without saying much, he just sat cross-legged there.

Not long after, when the rules in the Martial Arts Golden Order reminded him that the time limit for the Martial Arts World Trial had expired and he was asked whether to renew it, he chose to return. …

In the Temple of Martial Arts.

The moment when Chen Ku flashed back from the mural in the Dacheng Hall.

But see.

In the Dacheng Hall, there were decorations and lanterns hanging high, creating a festive atmosphere just like the New Year.

"This……"

Chen Kuru first saw the chief priests Zhao Shenyang, Tang Lie, as well as Li Yuanhua, Xin Ruhai and other old scholars all standing opposite him before he could open his mouth to speak.

Crackling!

Outside the Dacheng Hall, a series of firecrackers were heard.

Amid the sound of firecrackers.

But he saw that all the martial arts temple scholars, led by Zhao Shenyang, were all smiling and walking towards him in an orderly manner.

Wait until the firecrackers stop.

Zhao Shenyang and others also came to Chen Ku.

"Greetings, Master Priest." Chen Ku bowed and looked at the lanterns and firecrackers around him, and asked, "These..."

"These are all to celebrate, to celebrate you."

Zhao Shenyang stroked his beard, looked at Chen Ku, his eyes showing excitement, and said:
"It's been so many years. The Great Era has been established for nearly 160 years. I have been in this Qiulong Martial Temple for 50 years. Finally, I have seen someone who has the potential to bring fame to my Qiulong Mansion and wash away the shame of Qiulong's lack of talent."

"There are no geniuses among Qionglong?"

Chen Kudao:
"What do you mean, Chief Priest?"

"Chen Ku, you don't know that the genius in the county is called a genius, but in fact he is only a genius in name only, not in reality. Let's not talk about anything else..."

Tang Lie explained to Chen Ku:
"The Jiuzhou Talent List includes talents from 108 prefectures. However, since the founding of the country, no one from my Qiulong Prefecture has ever had the opportunity to reach the top 600 in Jiuzhou before the age of 20. The best performer is only one person who made it into the top 300 at the age of 50. As for the top 100 'Longyuan Hundred Heroes', no one from Qiulong Prefecture has ever been able to make it."

"It's been one hundred and fifty-seven years, and no one has made it into the top 100 in Longyuan Province?" Chen Ku was surprised.

Having said that, I really feel a little embarrassed.

"Why are you asking these questions? It's because the chief priest and I have seen a glimmer of hope in you."

Tang Lie lowered his voice and said:

"A person from Qiulong Mansion has the hope of becoming one of the '100 Heroes of Longyuan'."

"You all have too high expectations of me." Although Chen Ku was confident that he had a change map and could keep climbing forward, he still had to be humble at this time.

"No, you are qualified." Zhao Shenyang said, "You are Qin Yuxian's junior brother. I will tell you something in front of you. Your senior brother Qin Yuxian is known as the number one master of our Qiulong and the number one person in the white way. However, he is over 40 years old and still ranked 610th. You are 17 years old, which is almost the same as him. With such qualifications, if you can't reach the top of Longyuan Hundred Heroes, then no one can."

Chen smiled bitterly: "In fact, I will be eighteen years old in a few days."

"Eighteen years old..."

After Chen Ku said this, the others looked at Chen Ku with even more envy.

This is genius.

The first one hundred young people among the 100 heroes of Longyuan are roughly the same age as Chen Ku.

If you are not a genius among geniuses, you can never be among the top 100 among 1.3 billion people.

Therefore, half of the 100 heroes of Longyuan are only in their teens or twenties. Some of them are born with martial arts physiques, while others have extraordinary talents. One year of training is equivalent to 20 to 30 years of training for others.

At the age of teens and twenties, they can achieve what these old men take half a lifetime to achieve.

This is genius!
Chen Ku chatted with the group of old scholars from the Martial Temple for a while longer, and finally, he found the master of casting magic weapons among the crowd.

Zhuge Wu complimented Chen Ku a few times like everyone else, then he took a look at the tear in Chen Ku's black feathered robe and said, "It was torn by the immortal sword, and even if it is repaired, it will still have defects. I suggest you return it to the Martial Temple at a discount and buy a new divine weapon-level feathered robe, which is better."

Chen Ku thought so in his heart, but he wanted to ask: "How much more can this feathered monk's clothing be discounted?"

Zhuge Wu said: "The value of a magic weapon, including the casting cost, is at least 300,000 or 400,000 Wu Luck. Because your magic weapon feathered warrior suit has been repaired, more materials have been added. Even if it is disassembled and recycled, it is more valuable than other magic weapons. It can be discounted by about 250,000."

Chen Ku's mind moved, and he said, "If that's the case, I still have 140,000 Wu Luck here. With this feathered robe, what kind of new divine weapon-level feathered robe can I buy?"

Zhuge Wu laughed and said, "Buy it directly? That's too expensive."

Chen Ku thought that after he came out of the martial arts world, the next step would be to prepare to try to collect the fire spout kettle. By then, he would be in a foreign country after all, so he would put on an extra piece of armor if he could, so he said, "Just buy it."

Zhuge Wu calculated and said, "390,000 Wu Luck can just buy a finished 'Taiyin Jade Toad Clothes'. This clothes is made of ice silk from Taiyin Jade Toad, can defend against the power of fire, and resist the fire-type body, it has special effects."

Chen Ku was slightly delighted and said, "Okay, this is it."

"We don't have ready-made robes in Qiulong Martial Temple. We need to apply for them from the state temple. Please leave your martial arts luck and this tattered feather robe behind. They will be transported here in about three to five days." Zhuge Wudao.

"Thank you very much!" Chen Ku bowed.

After dealing with the damaged feather robe, Chen Ku talked more with everyone in the Martial Temple, especially the master of casting magic weapons, and learned some basics of casting.

Then, unable to resist Zhao Shenyang's invitation, he had another meal in the Wu Temple before leaving.

Returned to his home.

He summoned Erlang and asked him what changes had taken place outside during the fifteen days since he entered the world of martial arts.

Erlang smiled and told him many things that happened in the past fifteen days.

"According to your wishes, Qin Fang has secretly brought Guan Hongluan back to the Qiulong Martial Arts Association and is waiting for your instructions."

After saying that, Jilang pointed behind him:

"Because you defeated the Champion Marquis in the martial arts world yesterday, the twelve guardians of the Qionglong Martial Arts Association are now convinced of you. I took this opportunity to get these things for you in advance in my name."

After he said that, he handed over a storage bag that Chen Ku had given him for temporary use.

Chen Ku took a look and said in surprise:
"One hundred thousand catties of fire spirit sand, one hundred thousand catties of mixed diamond?"

The remaining two offerings of the ninth variation diagram would originally require two months of elixir revenue to purchase, but now Erlang had obtained them in advance by using all the power and names at his disposal.

He only lacks these two things to achieve the ninth transformation.

The two piles of materials were taken out immediately.

[There is someone beside the master who meets the second condition of the ninth transformation diagram. Do you want to offer a sacrifice?] (End of this chapter)
