Immediately, he removed the "Ma Mingfeng" from the fourth diagram on the Transformation Diagram and replaced it with the Evil Qi of a Red-Tailed Bee.

[Red-Tailed Bee Transformation!]

[Infused with forty-five threads of First Realm Red-Tailed Bee Evil Qi, Diagram Master achieved the Red-Tailed Bee Transformation Level]

[Red-Tailed Bee Transformation]

[Abilities: Eyes (photoreception), Antennae (tactile perception), Mouthparts (nectar feeding), Wings (speed of a Hundred Miles), Stinger (First Realm highly toxic)...]

Chen Ku quickly shifted his gaze away from the Red-Tailed Bee's abilities.

The bee's speed was already fast; otherwise, it would not have been able to catch up and sting him. However, this speed of a Hundred Miles still slightly shocked him.

As for that First Realm highly toxic venom, it was, of course, useless to him.

But if he were to coat the stinger with some venom capable of killing higher-realm Martial Practitioners and sting someone, the effect could be imagined.

Yet, what Chen Ku was most satisfied with was...

"I transform!"

BUZZING...

Unnoticed, the Red-Tailed Bees circling in the dense woods were not smart enough to realize...

On the river's surface, a Red-Tailed Bee that looked exactly like them, about the size of a fingernail, flew out from the water.

Ordinary bees are, of course, afraid of water.

But this bee was not just any bee; it was Chen Ku, who had overlaid multiple transformations, especially underwater abilities.

At that moment, Chen Ku, transformed into a bee, flew directly into the sky. He did not blend into a swarm of Red-Tailed Bees but flew towards the Nine-Colored Deer.

He felt exhilarated and wanted to cry out joyously, "Hahaha... I'm one step closer to Monkey Brother!"

Ever since he obtained the Transformation Diagram, he had been looking forward to being able to freely enlarge, shrink, and turn into stone or wood, just like Monkey Brother.

Especially some of Monkey Brother's classic tales: transforming into a fly or a bee, freely entering someone's house, and even, without notice, burrowing into someone's stomach...

Unfortunately, until he encountered the Red-Tailed Bee, previous bee and fly transformations hadn't even met the basic 'Wild Beast Level Evil Qi' standards, which had always frustrated his attempts to fulfill this expectation.

Now, having finally encountered a Demon of the entry realm, he seized the chance to infuse over a thousand threads of First Realm Evil Qi, fulfilling a small dream.

BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ.

Chen Ku, transformed into the little Red-Tailed Bee, followed the same escape route and soon returned beneath that ancient tree.

Under the ancient tree, the Tail Fire Tiger, Howling Monkey, and Mammoth Cow all looked in the direction Chen Ku had left.

Chen Ku, transformed into a bee, buzzed leisurely around them. I really want to give them a sting.

With his current strength, transforming into a Flower Fox Mink—although only of Second Realm Demon quality—under the combined Qi Power from his many superimposed transformations, biting a Third Realm Demon to death was not difficult at all.

But Chen Ku knew that he couldn't reveal himself before he had hunted the Nine-Colored Deer.

Just like that, Chen Ku, transformed into a little bee, hovered around the ancient tree.

I can smell the Nine-Colored Deer's scent on this tree, but it's invisible—probably standing on some branch...

Following the scent, similar to that of a Skinny Dog, as the Red-Tailed Bee, he continuously approached the location on this ancient tree where the scent was most intense.

Not much later, Chen Ku, transformed into the little bee, hovered in midair near the tree trunk, circling and watching below.

Though I can't see it, my sense of smell tells me the Nine-Colored Deer is right in this spot...

He gently lowered his wings, probing forward.

As Chen Ku subtly flew downward, little by little...

But he unexpectedly landed on a contact surface about one meter above the tree trunk.

SPLASH!

Suddenly, he seemed to have landed on a surface of rippling light, as a nine-colored radiance spread out like water ripples, momentarily forming the silhouette of the Nine-Colored Deer beneath the bee.

Upon looking up again, he saw the Nine-Colored Deer, which had also curiously turned its head, looking at the bee that had landed on its back.

But with just that one look, its pupils drastically constricted as it watched the bee on its back instantly enlarge into a human, a knife in his hand swinging towards its head.

[Diagram Master kills the Nine-Colored Deer, obtains a thread of Third Realm Evil Qi]

SLASH!

Deer Blood sprayed onto the ancient tree beneath.

Beneath the tree, several Third Realm Demons suddenly sensed something was amiss. They simultaneously looked up, only to see the 'Deer King' in their minds already being carried away by a giant bear flying in the sky, gripping its body and head, soaring into the heavens.

"ROAR!" "ROAR!"

The Tail Fire Tiger, Howling Monkey, and Mammoth Cow emitted earth-shattering cries of grief and rage!

The sound waves traveled into the high skies.

HUMPH!

Chen Ku, even though he took off immediately after hunting the Nine-Colored Deer, was still impacted on the head by the Howling Monkey's sound waves, feeling as if he had been hit by a club.

He still staggered in midair for quite a while before he shakily flew away.

Noisy monkey, I'll remember this. I'll settle the score when I get the chance.

Now, it was time to return to the riverbank.

Beneath the river, he retrieved the Storage Bag, stuffed the corpse of the Nine-Colored Deer inside, and finally transformed into a Flower Fox Mink, flying back to Baojiao City.

By the time Chen Ku returned to Baojiao County, it was nearly daylight the next morning.

Unnoticed, a creature as small as a white mouse, carrying a slanted bag, scurried along under the shadow of the eaves, leaped over the courtyard wall, and finally returned to a room.

PHEW!

Back on the bed, Chen Ku spread himself out in a star shape and let out a deep sigh. Then, he joyously looked towards the Evil Qi of the Nine-Colored Deer—his harvest for the night.
