Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog

Tens of thousands of mountain ranges stretch endlessly, with treacherous peaks reaching the heavens, rising several thousand feet high, yet the highest peak is still shrouded in mist, resembling hundreds of jade dragons encircling. Behind the clouds stands a magnificent grand hall, akin to Yunding Heavenly Palace.

The Fighting God Palace, in the land of the Southwest Three Provinces during the Daji era, no sect can surpass the antiquity of the Fighting God Palace. It's said that the Fighting God Palace has survived five dynasties on this land.

The inheritance can be traced back three to four thousand years ago.

At this moment, behind the Heavenly Palace nestled among the peaks, there are endless spiritual fields, with spiritual beasts and oxen cultivating the special 'Spirit Rice' exclusively provided to Fighting God Palace disciples.

It's said that even the royal families cannot savor such rice, and only the Fighting God Palace possesses this Spirit Rice.

In those spiritual fields, as seen from afar, there lies an elderly white-haired monkey, its beard and hair sparse, nails long and sharp, chest sunken in, looking emaciated, now lying on a large rock drinking from a gourd.

Fighting God Ape!

One of the foundations of the Fighting God Palace, it's said that its lifespan can compare with the entire Fighting God Palace, a war companion of the first-generation Fighting God.

At this moment…

The previously carefree elderly white-haired monkey suddenly stopped drinking, its sleepy eyes regaining a hint of clarity, gazing into the void, where…

Far above the Heavenly Dome, a golden monkey hair meandered back towards it, carried by wind and airflow.

The old monkey jolted upright, bewildered, catching the golden monkey hair.

Then, it silently gazed down in silence.

This life-saving monkey hair was given by itself to a disciple with great Qi Fortune in the Fighting God Palace, yet now it has flown back.

Immediately, it rubbed the monkey hair, trying to find the young man's True Spirit within it. As long as the True Spirit remains, it can use this monkey hair to reconstruct his body.

However, under its rubbing, it was shocked to find that the monkey hair contained no True Spirit.

Only then did it realize something was wrong.

At once, it blew a breath of Immortal Qi onto the monkey hair, and immediately scenes unfolded in its eyes.

A moment later.

Dong!

Dong!

Dong!

The entire Fighting God Palace among the mountains resonated with sounds grand as heavenly bells, reverberating in the heart, momentarily captivating all fifty or sixty thousand disciples of the Fighting God Palace, all looking toward the highest mountain.

A gigantic celestial curtain unfolded there.

Within it flickered scene after scene.

It was the process of Chen Ku and Hua Qingyun's duel in the Five Elements Land, finally freezing upon the opened left eye of Chen Ku containing nine spinning stars.

Hua Qingyun turned to ashes.

A monkey hair fell from Hua Qingyun's body, picked up by Jin Xun, who roared in anger, pounding the mountains relentlessly, blowing a breath upon the monkey hair, sending it…

back to the Fighting God Palace.

"Uncle Yuexian has died!"

"The only disciple of Master Uncle Ancestor Yuexian died just like this!"

"Who is that boy in black!"

Momentarily, the ordinary disciples, outer disciples, inner sect disciples, and true disciples across the Fighting God Palace were in an uproar.

Who didn't know the world-surpassing prodigy Hua Yuexian, had long been designated as the next Fighting God of the Fighting God Palace!

All these years, he only accepted Hua Qingyun as a disciple, and now he's killed while undergoing trials.

All true disciples seem to have foreseen.

The entire Heavenly Dome of the Fighting God Palace darkened like a young man's face.

......

The pitch-black Divine Martial Mountain.

Chen Ku completely felt the assistance brought by Jin Xun's Ninth Realm peak-level Blood Qi, and as this transformative Blood Qi enveloped him, it seemed a blood river was flowing within him.

Compared to this blood river, his previous Blood Qi seemed like a trickle as thick as a finger.

Moreover, he felt with a mere thought, this Blood Qi River could manifest in the external world, just like the Jiang Family Elders that day, with Blood Qi traversing miles of sky.

Being born from the Fighting God Palace, Jin Xun's Blood Qi quality far exceeded that of the Jiang Family Elders.

The immense Blood Qi brought transformative change to Chen Ku's body, the marrow liquid within him needing slow refinement to achieve a thorough transformation, now seeming to find the most correct direction and goal.

Guided towards instinctual transformation.

Especially with the help of the "Naughty Marrow Cleansing Technique," an Immortal Level Marrow Cleansing Method, Jin Xun's Blood Qi was directed into the three main marrow chambers of bone marrow, spinal marrow, and brain marrow…

Visibly, the marrow liquid in three areas of Chen Ku's body emerged with traces of golden color.

The golden marrow and jade liquid, known as 'True Marrow'!

The peak of the Eighth Realm, known as the most difficult cleansing transformation process, was easily achieved by Chen Ku, reaching the level of the fifth marrow cleansing, which is the pinnacle of the Eighth Realm cleansing.

But this is nowhere near the end.

Because once completing the perfect marrow cleansing of the Eighth Realm, and generating 'True Marrow', the body would automatically, under the nourishment of the True Marrow, create the first new blood.

In other words, the perfect marrow cleansing of most Martial Practitioners and the first layer of Ninth Realm blood exchange would not differ too much in time, it would follow one after another.

If stepping into the fifth perfect marrow cleansing, then Ninth Realm blood exchange is a natural step.

But Chen Ku completed this step too quickly.

Without the long nurturing time of most Martial Practitioners, it was entirely under the protection of Jin Xun's Ninth Realm peak Blood Qi, as smooth as level ground, without any cultivation worries.

Just like that, time passed bit by bit.

By the next morning, a rooster crowed on the Divine Martial Mountain.

Look at Chen Ku's body at this moment.

All the marrow liquid transformed into gold jade-like preciousness, strands of golden-red Blood Qi emerged from the marrow liquid, permeating the body, making sounds akin to the roaring Yellow River and the rolling Yangtze River.

It was already the first layer heaven of the Ninth Realm blood exchange.

"This is the benefit brought to me by the Ninth Realm peak Blood Qi cultivation realm! So fast! It's completely like copying the correct answer, completing the Eighth Realm marrow cleansing overnight, unleashing the first strand of new blood within."

Chen Ku was shocked:

"Although there's a lot of Demon Meat that I consumed previously, transformed into Vital Energy stored within, now with the help of Jin Xun's Blood Qi, the blood exchange went so smoothly, but at this rate, I might really complete all Ninth Realm blood exchange cultivation before graduation, I might even try to break through to the Qi Realm at graduation?!"

He took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement.

He stood up and shook out his whole body's spirit.

Clang!

Hearing the bell starting to ring on the Divine Martial Mountain, signaling all students to get up for class.

Chen Ku took a deep breath facing the sun.

A smile appeared on his face.

He walked towards the Destruction Hall, preparing to give the teachers a big surprise and shock.

Inside the Destruction Hall.

Chen Ku was the first one to arrive.

Before others came, he was entirely absorbed by the Iron Tree, having mastered the Taiyin Technique, transforming his physique into the 'Taiyin Technique', he could now perceive the Pure Yin Dao Yun between heaven and earth anytime, anywhere.

At this moment, the Iron Tree before him was entirely different.

"Eh?"

He exclaimed in surprise, as looking at the Iron Tree again with his current realm and cultivation body, he saw things much more differently and clearly.

"Inside this Iron Tree, besides the endless Yin death energy, there's a 'prohibition', could this prohibition be the very personal method Murong Cheng mentioned from the Destruction Tower Master."

Chen Ku was attracted by the true essence contained within the Iron Tree.

He immediately focused his attention on this prohibition, observing it. With his current Taiyin Technique, he could dissect the origin of this Iron Tree casually, without worrying about being countered by the Yin death energy from heaven and earth.

Because he was already in tune with them.

While Chen Ku was contemplating the prohibition within the Iron Tree.

Gradually, other students started arriving for class in the Destruction Hall.

"Eh, Senior Brother Chen finally came to class, he took several days off, saying he was in closed cultivation, so he succeeded in his retreat?"

A student greeted Chen Ku.

At this moment, Xue Bailiu walked in, and the moment he saw Chen Ku, with his Eleventh Realm Martial Path True Body cultivation realm, instantly sensed the Qi Mechanism on Chen Ku, his gaze shrank sharply:

"Chen Ku's realm... this is... Ninth Realm?"

Before Xue Bailiu could be shocked for long.

Murong Cheng also entered the Destruction Hall with the students arriving successively, and with his hands behind his back, he almost instantaneously noticed the Qi Mechanism change on Chen Ku's body.

Especially the faint blood flowing noise from Chen Ku's body sounded like a river of mercury to those who have reached above the Tenth Realm, it was like Thunder Shock.

"Chen Ku stepped into Ninth Realm blood exchange?" Murong Cheng blurted out.

And this sentence instantly caused all the students in the Destruction Hall to burst into commotion, all looking at Chen Ku as if they were looking at a monster, shocked and speechless:

"Ninth Realm?!"

"Ninth Realm blood exchange?"

"Wasn't Senior Brother Chen taking leave to cultivate for the fourth blood exchange? How did he exit his retreat directly at the Ninth Realm?!"
