The Yankang Dao Map ca into view, with the silhouette of the Great Emperor carrying the heavens and earth, bearing the sun and moon on his shoulders.
It was clearly just a picture, yet it gave Chen Ku a sense that the Great Emperor was himself, causing his spirit to resonate, and mysteriously, the Gang Qi within him began to circulate following the profound 'ntal realm'.
But there was just a skeleton ahead.
Chen Ku was startled awake.
"I can't practice this lightly!"
This Wen Suzhen ended her path of cultivation because she lost the ninth part of the map.
Imdiately.
Chen Ku held steadfastly to his mind, rely reading, avoiding resonating with the inner ntal realm of the images, and roughly went through the nine pictures. It was a narrative of a Great Emperor observing the sun and moon, heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, entering the Dao through nature.
Each picture had annotations in the lower right corner, explaining the true essence of this "Yankang Dao Map."
This was not martial arts.
Instead, it was a comprehensive outline explaining the natural way of heaven and earth, suggesting that one could derive various martial arts insights, conveying the ultimate principles of martial arts, applicable to any martial arts technique, be it swords, sabers, or fists.
"Emperor Yankang? An ancient figure? Nine Mansions, Three Treasures, Six Collections?"
Chen Ku murmured to himself:
"Entering Dao? What is entering Dao? This seems to be another cultivation realm different from martial arts, or perhaps a domain?"
He could basically confirm.
This senior Wen Suzhen indeed had a heaven-defying encounter back then, but success was due to the encounter, and failure was also due to it.
Chen Ku thought silently: "Although these nine pictures, only the first eight are correct, and the ninth is missing the key to the Ninth Realm's cultivation, if I were to cultivate it myself, it would undoubtedly be a trap, but can I let my avatars practice it?"
Before coming to Yan Capital, he had already assigned tasks.
Whether his avatars resided in the Transformation Diagram or stayed in the Qiu Dragon Mansion, they needed to help him condense 'Dragon Elephant Particles' daily, which also aided his cultivation.
Due to the Transformation Diagram, the martial arts and skills of the avatars could be stacked onto him.
If a Seventh Realm avatar cultivated this Yankang Dao Map, reaching just the Eighth Picture would be profitable. As for the Ninth Realm breakthrough, if needed, Chen Ku could prepare a new Ninth Realm transformation and upgrade the refining shape once again for that avatar.
Thinking it over, it seed there was room for maneuver.
Therefore, Chen Ku planned to deliver this Yankang Dao Map to his 'Erlang Avatar' upon returning to Yan Capital.
He put away the scroll.
Then opened the storage pouch beneath the jade box.
Inside, he found a space the size of a grand hall, displaying many of Wen Suzhen's lifeti treasures, including three Divine Weapons: a Great Halberd, a large saber, and a serpent spear.
It appeared that Wen Suzhen was accustod to wielding long weapons back in the day.
Apart from that, Chen Ku found more than One Hundred Thousand Taels worth of gold bills, to his delight:
"Unexpected fortune indeed."
Although he had a huge business in the Qiu Dragon Mansion, having signed a three-billion deal with the military, after internal division, he would receive about a billion silver.
And before leaving, Qin Fang and others were still applying for a ten-billion half-year order.
But that would only be realized after order fulfillnt.
Currently, only the first billion of that three-billion order had been paid by the military, which was to be used for the developnt and expansion of the Dan Yuan Association, and Chen Ku had only brought about 100,000 taels with him to Yan Capital.
Now, obtaining over Ten Thousand Gold in bills, especially during warti with the gold price having risen to a ratio of twenty-five to one, ant he unexpectedly gained Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Taels of silver, which delighted him.
As Chen Ku counted the items in Wen Suzhen's storage pouch one by one.
[Detected conditions for cultivating The 11th Transformation Map beside the Diagram Master: Five Hundred Spirit Jade]
[The 11th Transformation Map cultivation conditions: Five Hundred Spirit Jade, One Hundred Pounds of Divine Wood Gold, One Hundred Pounds of Green Pine Soil, a hundred strands of Seventh Realm Evil Qi, a great achievent in a Divine Skill Level martial art, and Seventh Realm Outer Firmant Cultivation]
Chen Ku happily saw that the large chest extracted from the storage pouch contained over six hundred pieces of Spirit Jade.
"Such an item is rare in Ji Country due to the cultivation system, as Martial Practitioners generally cannot absorb the spiritual energy from Spirit Jade, so it rarely circulates among them, but it's a solid currency among Qi Cultivators."
Without hesitation, he chose to offer it to the Transformation Diagram.
[The Diagram Master has t 1/6 of the conditions for The 11th Transformation Map cultivation]
Afterward, he carefully examined the storage pouch, finding nothing else of significance.
Finally, Chen Ku bowed to Wen Suzhen:
"Since I have received the inheritance from the senior, it falls upon , the junior, to handle the senior's final arrangents and send you to eternal rest."
With that, he unleashed the Sky-reaching Sword Gang, carving a stone coffin within the cave mansion, placing Wen Suzhen's remains into it, and further carved out a stone tomb inside the cave mansion, erecting a stele.
Sealing the grand tomb with stones, the stele stood at the forefront.
The Divine Weapon Level Treasure Clothes worn by Wen Suzhen were not taken by Chen Ku for two reasons: firstly, he already had two pieces of Divine Weapon Level Armor, and secondly, because this person hadn't placed the Divine Weapon Level Treasure Clothes in the jade box's storage pouch, it might imply that the treasure clothes held special aning for her, so even in death, she wore it.
