Chapter 194 The Seventh Magical Power

In Liangjie Mountain, the mountains and forests have turned green, and the forest sea is swaying like waves with the night wind.

Whoosh!

Chen Ku used his earth escape technique and appeared directly in Liangjie Mountain, more than 120 miles north of Baojiao County.

As the boundary between the Ji and Yuan kingdoms, the two boundary mountains stretch for more than 3,000 miles, just like a giant mountain dragon crouching on the earth.

The tall mountains not only blocked the cold air and sand blowing southward from the Yuan Kingdom in the north, but also blocked the warm and humid climate from the Ji Kingdom in the south, resulting in a huge difference in scenery and temperature between the two countries.

Sniff~

Chen Ku twitched his nose slightly and could already smell the scent of a large number of humans five or six miles away. This scent is very common in the civilian coolie area outside the city of Baojiao County, and it is usually people who work hard.

"That place should be the entrance to the underground palace of the Xia King's treasure excavated by Shangguan Yun and Sui You."

He didn't smell Sui You's scent among the thousands of people in front of him. Thinking about it, he probably only came here to supervise the work and check the progress from time to time. He didn't stay there all day.

In this way, Chen Ku had the confidence to boldly dive into the past:

"Go check it out."

Immediately, he shrank and turned into a little bee. He used the Nine-Colored Deer's "Nine-Colored Light Following Technique" to hide his figure, and then used the Earth Escape Technique to shrink himself into the earth.

In less than half a cup of tea, we were already in the underground corridor.

…

In the underground corridor.

"Brother Niu, Brother Niu fainted from exhaustion."

Someone looked at a strong man who was excavating in the corridor and suddenly fell to the ground, and couldn't help shouting: "How is it?"

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to step forward to explore, he heard the sound of a whip cracking through the air, and a "pop" sound, hitting him hard on the shoulder.

"ah!"

The slave laborer named Xin Xiaonian screamed and immediately stepped back in fear. Then he heard the whip-wielding supervisor say coldly:

"What are you doing? Do your job."

Xin Xiaonian immediately did not dare to raise his head, so he quickly grabbed the horn pickaxe, lowered his head on the spot and started working with fear and trembling.

After the whip-wielding supervisor drove away the others, he looked at the strong man who had passed out and said coldly and impatiently: "Come two people and carry them away. Don't delay the progress of the project."

Immediately, two supervisors with knives came forward, lifted the unconscious migrant worker, loaded it into a mine cart, patted the mine cart, and drove it to an unknown area.

Buzz~~

The bee that Chen Ku transformed into disappeared, flapped its wings, and stopped just beside the mine cart that was going away. He saw this scene clearly and was slightly shocked in his heart:

"Are all these people recruited by Shangguan Yun as coolies to dig up the underground palace? But I haven't heard that a large number of people are missing in Baojiao County..."

After thinking about it for a while, I seemed to have thought of a piece of information.

It seems that just a few years ago, Baojiao County levied a "corvee tax" and forcibly recruited people to build water conservancy dams. The number of forced laborers at that time was about a thousand people. It turns out...

They all came here.

Chen Ku couldn't help but think to himself:

"Shangguanyun, you are worthy of being a county magistrate, the lord of a county. With just one order, you can recruit thousands of people to dig the underground palace for him without anyone noticing."

Looking inside the corridors of the underground palace, the supervisors often beat and scolded the peasants. It was common for the peasants to die from exhaustion due to the hard work. I couldn't help but think of the time when I was in Dachen Village, when I almost had to pay the autumn tax because I couldn't. They were also forcibly recruited to serve as corvees.

I sighed in my heart.

He didn't look much, he just flapped his wings and moved forward towards the front of the corridor.

On the way forward, he kept passing by long queues of peasants carrying burdens filled with rocks and soil, surrounded by guards holding knives and drinking wine, standing guard every fifty steps.

"These guards standing guard don't look like they are government officials from Baojiao County, but each of them seems to have martial arts skills, and at worst they have internal energy cultivation..."

Chen Ku had doubts about the origin of these guards standing guard:

"Is this Shangguan Yun's private power?"

It seems that I have indeed heard that Shangguan Yun was the leader of a huge gang in Qiulong Mansion before he came to Baojiao County and took up the post of county magistrate. Later, he somehow got an official position.

If these people are really Shangguan Yun's personal power, Chen Ku can't help but feel more pressure on Shangguan Yun's overall strength.

Black and white take it all, he can not only mobilize the officers and soldiers of Baojiao County, but also secretly have a gang to serve him. If he really faces such a person, if he cannot kill him in a single fight, with his huge power, he can kill all his enemies in a pile. .

Keep flying forward.

At the entrance of the corridor ahead, there are several small caves opened to the left and right, and someone is talking inside:

"Third uncle, you said that when this underground palace is opened, there will be no rice dumplings, right? Such a large underground palace, at first glance, it is the size of an emperor. If there is a corpse turned into rice dumplings, the power will be immeasurable."

In this cave, there is a young man with a ponytail on the back of his head. He looks very refined. At this time, he is asking "Uncle San", a senior in his field:

"How about we make preparations early and get some black donkey hooves or something."

The middle-aged man named Uncle San was smoking a pot, looking at his nephew, and sneered: "You said it yourself, the entrance to such a large underground palace was compacted with countless stones. Estimating the scale of the underground palace, It's at least the size of a mountain, and it's hollowed out inside. Is there really a rice dumpling that can be dealt with by a black donkey's hooves? "

The old man took a puff of cigarette and while speaking, he was also slightly shocked. As a famous native master in the tomb robbing industry, he was nicknamed "Master Yao" by the Qiulong generation. It is not that he has never seen a large tomb for so many years, but this This was the first time he had seen a large-scale underground palace tomb.

"Then, wouldn't this trip... be fatal?" The young man was extremely worried.

"What are you afraid of? We are only responsible for helping the master open the entrance to the underground palace, and we are not going in. If we really want to go in, we will have the support of the master and the experts from the Tiangong Mansion."

…

Tiangong Mansion?

When Chen Ku heard these three words, he had never heard of them.

But when I looked into the cave on the other side, I saw that there were many machine tools and puppets inside. There was a middle-aged man with a machine arm inside, who devoted himself wholeheartedly to the manufacture of a machine.

"Is this an expert from the Tiangong Mansion? It sounds like he is a master of mechanisms similar to the 'Mo Family' in his previous life?"

Chen Ku recalled that in the Kirin Blood Memory inheritance, it seemed that on the road map, there were many signs of agency figures, which vaguely symbolized the presence of guardianship.

With a heartbeat, remember this information.

Then he flapped his wings and flew towards the end of the corridor. At the end of the corridor, Chen Ku finally discovered the way these people were digging. They were actually digging stones. There were dozens of people holding diamond drills and digging towards the stones in the soil. Digging...

Chen Ku finally understood why the third uncle said that this underground palace was hollowed out of a mountain. It was really just mountains and rocks that served as barriers. No wonder Shangguan Yun spent so long to dig out 90% of it after capturing the Xu family. .

It’s really ‘opening mountains’.

The little bees transformed by Chen Ku flew over the heads of the civilian coolies and came to the stone wall at the end. After searching carefully, they found that these stones were all neatly stacked together, like huge pyramid-like stones.

However, when I saw the end, I felt happy:

"There are gaps. It's good to have gaps!"

Since it is a stone palace built outside the mountain by external forces, there are gaps where the stones are piled up. The presence of gaps means that he can use Earth Escape to get in.

Whoosh~

A farmer was digging stones, and suddenly his vision blurred, and the seams in the stones seemed to have loosened...

…

Uh-huh! Uh-huh! Uh-huh!

Chen Ku used the Earth Escape Technique to constantly look for gaps in Shangguan Yun's final stone barrier, which was only 10% away, and continued to escape...

With a body the size of a small bee, he could find gaps among the earth-yellow boulders that were more than ten feet in diameter. If his mental memory wasn't strong enough, he would be able to remember the route.

This feeling is really like a little person entering a huge maze created by a giant. Not only will he get lost, but the key is the terrible mental depression.

…………

call! call!

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Chen Ku estimated that he had been crawling inside for at least half an hour. Suddenly, there was a light in front of him...

Immediately afterwards, his small body flew out and immediately submerged into a silver ocean.

[Besides the subject of the picture is an item that meets the cultivation conditions of the Sixth Transformation Picture: ten thousand catties of mercury]

[Whether to choose to sacrifice]

…

When Chen Ku entered this silver ocean, the first thing he felt was that his body was instantly stimulated to have the abilities of the five-color peacock [not injured by gold] and [not drowned by water].

Immediately, he transformed into a five-color peacock and fled towards the ocean surface.

Less than a moment.

I saw a five-color peacock fluttering out of this huge silver ocean.

This one flew out.

Chen Ku finally understood why the Change Diagram reminded him that there were things around him that met the cultivation conditions of the Sixth Change Diagram. He saw that underneath him, there was a mercury-like ocean, like a huge lake, blocking the huge stone wall, in the lake On the shore at the end is a stone pillar door that looks like one from mythology. Behind the door is a huge hole, ten feet high.

"This much mercury... is almost the same as the legendary underground palace of Qin Shihuang in his previous life!"

He was shocked.

The mercury that is like a lake, if it were replaced by silver, God knows how much silver it would be worth!

Only then did he have the time to read the reminder of the change chart.

When I saw this, I was shocked to find that because there was so much mercury here, even the cultivation conditions in the seventh picture were triggered.

[Besides the subject of the picture is an item that meets the conditions for practicing the seventh transformation picture: one hundred thousand kilograms of mercury]

[Cultivation conditions for the Seventh Transformation Diagram: One hundred thousand catties of mercury, one hundred thousand taels of red gold, ten thousand catties of gold and silk jade, five realms of evil spirits and ten paths, a secret skill to the level of perfection, and a piece of spiritual jade]

(Note: After completing the seventh picture, the second greatest magical power of the picture owner, the ‘Monster Summoning Banner’, will be awakened)

Chen Ku was surprised and shocked.

I had learned before that the changing diagram would give rise to an extra magical power every three or seven diagrams. This is how his embryonic chain shape came about.

Now, the information of the seventh picture has finally been revealed.

"Monster summoning flag?"

Chen Ku's first thought was the supreme magic weapon that Emperor Wa ordered the demons to command. However, wasn't this a magic weapon? How could it become a magical power?

"The demon summoning flag? What does it do? Can it summon a group of demons to serve me as my master?"

Too little information to evaluate.

He had to focus on the cultivation conditions of the seventh transformation diagram.

"pure gold?"

Chen Ku took a breath of cold air.

With his current social status, he can still understand the currency of the upper class. As the saying goes, "No gold is pure, and no man is perfect." Pure gold is a rarer thing than gold. Generally speaking, it is not formed innately. , but it is made by smelting it the day after tomorrow, and is mainly used by some Taoist priests when refining elixirs.

Burn gold until it is pure enough, and it becomes 'red gold' that can be used as medicine.

The medicine mentioned here refers to ‘elixir’.

The ‘golden elixir’ is made from gold, silver, lead, mercury and other metals.

There is also a method similar to alchemy in Yaowangtang, but it is far from using "medicinal materials" as precious as red gold. This is mainly because Yaowangtang does not have "alchemy recipes" related to red gold.

"Red gold is the same as silver essence. It takes ten taels of gold to produce one tael of red gold. One hundred thousand taels of red gold... Be good..."

Chen Ku felt that he would never make so much money in Baojiao County in his entire life.

As for the gold silk jade, it is even more expensive.

As for Lingyu, Chen Ku had never heard of it.

Can.

Look at one of the conditions in the sixth and seventh pictures that has been met.

Mercury, ten thousand catties of mercury, one hundred thousand catties of mercury...

On the periphery of this underground palace, only a 'moat'-like anti-theft method was redone.

"I probably won't be able to earn the gold, silver and precious metals needed for the transformation diagram in my lifetime using ordinary means, but... if I can get the 'Treasure of the King of Heroes' in this underground palace, it will be completely different."

Chen Ku looked at the mercury ocean below and said without hesitation:

"Sacrifice! Sacrifice to me! Sacrifice as much as you want!"

boom!

boom!

Immediately, along with the 'voiding of the void' in the changing diagram, the mercury lake that looked like an ocean instantly lost 40 to 50 tons of mercury...

The height of the entire Mercury Lake dropped by about a foot.

[The owner of the picture has met the sixth transformation diagram practice conditions 5/6]

[The owner of the picture has met 1/6 of the requirements for practicing the Seventh Transformation Picture]

Chen Ku saw that the sixth transformation diagram was short of the final condition of awakening, "the top-quality transformation of one of the four realms."

This time.

He looked at the entrance of the underground palace, very cautiously, because at the entrance of the underground palace, stood a bronze giant three feet tall, holding a Xuanhua ax in his hand, majestic like a god.

"That……"

If he hadn't overheard the uncle and nephew from the Tufu family outside the entrance to the underground palace, Chen Ku might have thought it was a statue, but now he was very sure:

"It's a bronze mechanism puppet!"

Thinking that this underground palace was built by a hero from at least the Fourteenth Realm, the strength of the bronze puppet he left behind...

Chen Ku swallowed.

Guessing in mind:

"Seventh realm? Eighth realm? Ninth realm? Or higher?"

However, we have already arrived here. Wouldn't it be a joke if we were trapped in this puppet at the gate?

"Let's try and see if the clone can pass..."

Chen Ku stretched out his palm, blew a breath, transformed the bee, and asked the little bee to explore the way first. If the bee could pass, then he could too.

If the bee cannot pass, it will only lose one incarnation of the bee. (End of chapter)
