Chapter 67, The Calamity Poison Body is on par with the Royal Body!
Qingshan Town, the backyard of Wanyaozhai.
Inside the quiet room.
A slender figure sat cross-legged on a futon.
Dark purple mist seeped from her pores, flowing slowly like a living thing.
The fog gathered and dispersed intermittently.
When they gathered, they all disappeared three inches below her navel; when they dispersed, they condensed into a faint halo around her body.
The halo flickered intermittently.
Each time the lights came on, an extremely cold and yin aura filled the air, and even a thin layer of frost formed on the windowsill.
Little Fairy Doctor closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
Her consciousness sank to the depths of a sea of suffering.
It was no longer the dark place that was only the size of a bean when it was first opened up a few months ago.
Now the Sea of Bitterness is vast and magnificent, with dark purple divine power surging endlessly like the tides.
At the center, a life-giving spring gushes forth incessantly.
The spring is deep, seemingly leading straight to the deepest hell. Extreme yin energy and calamity poison intertwine and entwine within it, transforming into a continuous stream of divine power to nourish the entire sea of suffering.
Peak of Life Spring.
Just one step away from building a divine bridge to reach the other side.
Little Fairy Doctor slowly opened her eyes.
A flash of purple light appeared in his eyes, and a dark, ghostly abyss seemed to lurk deep within his pupils.
She looked down at her palm, her fingers slightly spread.
A wisp of dark purple divine power gushed from the Life Spring, flowing along the meridians to the fingertips.
Divine power condensed into tiny vortexes at his fingertips, no bigger than a fingernail.
At the center of the vortex, a wisp of dark gray poisonous energy lurked about like a serpent.
The former rage, which seemed ready to break free at any moment, was gone.
The ferocity that once threatened to erode her flesh and bones inch by inch was gone.
Now it sits quietly within the vortex of divine power.
A slight smile appeared on Little Fairy Doctor's lips.
She clenched her fists, and the vortex and the poison dissipated simultaneously.
"Peak of the Life Spring Realm—"
Her tone carried a hint of joy.
"We are just one step away from building the divine bridge, but that step is not easy."
She already knew all too well that breaking through each level in the Secret Realm Technique required far more accumulation than the Battle Qi system.
Little Fairy Doctor stood up and walked to the window.
The window was pushed open, and moonlight and the night breeze rushed in.
The shadow of the old locust tree in the courtyard swayed gently on the ground, and a few withered leaves were swept up by the wind and fell back down.
She gazed at the open space under the tree, her eyes momentarily dazed.
A person once stood under that old locust tree.
It was that person who pulled her out of the abyss.
Little Fairy Doctor shook her head, banishing these thoughts.
She clenched her fist, dark purple divine power surging in her palm, a resolute glint in her eyes.
Just now.
An aura appeared in the backyard.
This aura was extremely subtle, and ordinary Grand Masters could not detect it at all.
However, Little Fairy Doctor is now a cultivator at the peak of the Life Spring realm. Although her divine sense is far less powerful than Su Ye's, her perception of the energy of heaven and earth is far superior to what it used to be.
Her pupils contracted slightly, and she quickly turned around.
Under the moonlight, a familiar figure appeared in the courtyard.
The blue and white Taoist robe was spotless, swaying gently in the night breeze.
The moonlight outlined the contours of his profile; it was still that gentle, jade-like face, with a cool, ethereal air.
Little Fairy Doctor was completely stunned.
Then a huge surprise welled up on my face.
"Su Ye!"
She practically rushed out of the room, her steps so fast that her skirt fluttered.
Su Ye stood in the courtyard, his gaze fixed on her.
My divine sense has already swept over it.
The sea of bitterness is dark purple, the spring of life is at its peak.
The dark purple divine power flowed smoothly through her meridians, its foundation solid and without any superficiality.
The progress was even faster than he had expected.
"Your cultivation has reached the peak of the Life Spring realm. Not bad progress."
A hint of approval flashed in Su Ye's eyes.
"It seems that the 'Netherworld Scripture' is more compatible with your constitution than expected."
Little Fairy Doctor quickly walked up to him.
The moonlight shone on her face, and something seemed to be shining in her eyes.
She opened her mouth as if to say something, but felt that nothing she said would be enough.
In the end, it all boils down to a simple greeting.
"You're back."
Su Ye glanced at her, and the corners of his lips slightly lifted.
"Um."
Little Fairy Doctor composed herself and suppressed the myriad emotions that had surged up within her.
She took a step back and raised her right hand.
Open your palm.
Dark purple divine power surged from the Fountain of Life, condensing into a fist-sized ball of light in her palm.
The sphere of light was covered with purplish-black patterns, with the chilling power of extreme yin and the corrosive power of calamity intertwined within, exuding a chilling aura.
"Take a look."
As Little Fairy Doctor spoke, she lightly twirled her five fingers.
The ball of light then split into seven strands, which darted around the fingertips like swimming fish.
Every strand of divine power was incredibly refined and could be controlled with complete ease.
The seven strands of divine power paused simultaneously, then intertwined into a fine net.
Wisps of grayish-black toxic mist seeped from the mesh.
A faint hissing sound emanated from the air as the poisonous fog passed through.
That was the sound of moisture being frozen by extreme yin power and then corroded by poison.
Su Ye watched quietly without interrupting her.
With a flick of her fingers, Little Fairy Doctor dissipated all the divine power and poisonous mist.
She raised her head, a hint of expectation in her eyes, like a disciple waiting for a teacher's comments.
Su Ye remained silent for two breaths.
"To achieve this level of control within the Life Spring is truly rare."
He paused, then looked down at the old locust tree in the courtyard.
Moonlight filtered through the leaves, casting a few specks of silver onto his Taoist robe.
"The four minor realms of the Sea of Wheels Secret Realm—the Sea of Bitterness, the Spring of Life, the Divine Bridge, and the Other Shore—each have their unique functions."
"The Fountain of Life is the source of the Sea of Bitterness; the deeper the spring, the purer the divine power that flows out."
Little Fairy Doctor listened quietly without interrupting.
Su Ye turned to look at her.
"Your advantage lies in your ability to absorb and transform toxicity using your Calamity Poison Body, allowing you to accumulate it faster than ordinary people."
.
"But you must also understand that rapid accumulation does not mean a weak foundation."
"Your destiny is deep and stable, and your foundation is solid."
"To build a sacred bridge, we need this solid support, so that the danger of getting lost when we reach the other side will be less."
""
Little Fairy Doctor kept every word of these words in her heart.
"The Sacred Bridge —"
She repeated the word, then looked up at Su Ye.
"How long does it take to get from the Fountain of Life to the Bridge of Gods?"
It varies from person to person.
Su Ye lowered his hands from behind his back, and the moonlight gilded his profile with a silvery edge.
"You have the Calamity Poison Body, and the Netherworld Scripture is a second-level Immortal scripture that primarily uses the power of extreme Yin."
"When the two are combined, the accumulation speed far exceeds that of ordinary cultivators."
"With your current level of preparation, you should be able to attempt a breakthrough in one to three months."
A glint of light flashed in Little Fairy Doctor's eyes.
"However, I'm referring to the accumulation of time, not the breakthrough itself."
Su Ye changed the subject.
"You need to seize the opportunity to break through to the next level. I will come back to protect you when the time comes."
The Little Fairy Doctor felt a slight warmth in her heart.
She didn't say anything to express her gratitude, she just nodded earnestly.
"Come in and talk."
Little Fairy Doctor waved and turned to walk towards the quiet room.
Su Ye followed her into the quiet room.
The quiet room was small, containing nothing but a futon and a low table.
An oil lamp sat on the low table, its tiny flame flickering gently in the night breeze.
Su Ye sat down at the low table, the sunlight sweeping over the neatly stacked medicinal herbs in the corner of the quiet room.
All of them are poisonous spiritual herbs.
Second-tier: Bone-Rotting Flower; Third-tier: Black-Veined Vine; Fourth-tier: Purple-Spotted Poisonous Mushroom.
Although their rank is not high, their quantity is considerable.
Little Fairy Doctor noticed his gaze and quickly spoke up.
"While you were gone for the past few months, I also went into the outer reaches of the Monster Mountain Range a few times to gather some poisonous herbs for cultivation."
Su Ye withdrew his gaze and asked softly, "During the cultivation process, did the poison ever become uncontrollable?"
Little Fairy Doctor shook her head.
Not even once.
She sat cross-legged opposite Su Ye and explained the details of her cultivation in detail.
"By circulating divine power according to the methods of the 'Netherworld Scripture' you left behind, the poison of the Calamity Poison Body was actively absorbed by the Sea of Bitterness."
"The power of extreme Yin crushes and purifies the poison, and then integrates it into divine power."
She paused, as if searching for a suitable metaphor.
"The whole process was very smooth, just like drinking warm water."
Su Ye raised an eyebrow slightly.
Drink warm water.
That's a fitting analogy.
In the original work, every time the Calamity Poison Body ingests poison, it is a life-or-death ordeal. The poison runs rampant in the meridians, and the slightest carelessness will lead to death from the poison.
Now, Little Fairy Doctor says it tastes like drinking warm water, which shows that the Secret Realm Method's system has indeed thoroughly tamed the poisonous body.
Su Ye took out several items from the Sea of Bitterness.
A fist-sized, dark green magic core with dark green toxin patterns flowing across its surface.
Little Fairy Doctor's gaze was immediately drawn to the magic core.
"This is—a fifth-tier poison-attribute magic core?!"
"Good taste."
Su Ye reached out and handed her the fifth-tier poison-attribute magic core.
"A fifth-tier venomous snake was found in a swamp deep within the Monster Mountain Range."
"Its poison sac and magic core are useful to you, so I took them before I came."
Su Ye spoke casually, as if he had just picked a fruit on the spur of the moment.
Little Fairy Doctor took the demon core, feeling the surging poison power contained within, her fingers trembling slightly.
A fifth-tier magical beast is equivalent to a human Battle King.
Su Ye then handed over another poisonous plant.
Six deep purple leaves, with fine black veins as thin as hair densely covering the leaves.
"Six-leaf purple-veined grass, a fourth-order poisonous herb, something that only grows in extremely yin places."
He then took out two fist-sized purple crystals.
The crystal contains a rich flow of cosmic energy and feels warm to the touch.
"This is amethyst ore, which I found in the cave of a sixth-tier amethyst winged lion king."
Su Ye then took out a fist-sized piece of black iron.
It felt icy cold to the touch and exuded a faint, extremely yin energy.
"Yin Soul Black Iron, and a weapon-refining manual."
Su Ye also slipped a jade slip into Little Fairy Doctor's hand.
"You don't need it now, but if you want to refine weapons in the future, these will be the starting point."
Finally, there's a bag of resources.
The bag wasn't big; it contained seven or eight fist-sized pieces of pure source stone.
Each piece is crystal clear, with milky white essence of heaven and earth flowing inside.
"This is the source, which in the secret realm magic system is equivalent to the essence of heaven and earth energy in the Dou Qi Continent."
"Placing it around you during cultivation can increase your cultivation speed. You'll see once you try it."
"7
Looking at the pile of things in her hands, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly felt a lump in her throat.
She was well aware of the value of these things.
A fifth-tier magic core, a fourth-tier poisonous herb, and an extremely yin ore—each of these items would be treasures that even a Dou Wang (Battle King) level expert would fight over in the Jia Ma Empire.
When Su Ye handed these to her, his expression was no different from if he had handed her a few wild fruits from the roadside.
"Su Ye————"
"I don't need these things."
Su Ye interrupted her directly, as if he knew what she was going to say.
"You should start cultivating as soon as possible."
Little Fairy Doctor bit her lip and carefully put the things away.
She knew that saying more words of thanks would be meaningless.
Su Ye continued, "The Divine Bridge is the watershed of the Sea of Wheels Secret Realm; every step is a hurdle."
"The amount of accumulation you lack now will naturally be overcome once you've refined all these poisonous magic cores and medicinal herbs."
After he finished speaking, his gaze returned to Little Fairy Doctor.
The girl in front of me was completely different from the one I first met a few months ago.
Under the moonlight, her complexion looked much better than it had a few months ago.
Although she was fair-skinned at that time, her fair skin had a sickly pallor.
Now her cheeks have regained their color, and her eyes and brows exude more confidence.
After the curse of the Calamity Poison Body was lifted, he seemed to emerge from the shadows.
Now her aura is calm and focused. Although the divine power in the Sea of Bitterness is still immature, it already possesses the composure that a cultivator should have.
Little Fairy Doctor noticed his gaze and subconsciously straightened her back.
Su Ye withdrew his gaze and spoke slowly.
"Your Cursed Poison Body is no longer an unbreakable curse under the Secret Realm Magic System."
"On the contrary, this constitution's ability to absorb and transform toxins is a unique advantage in the Sea of Wheels Secret Realm stage."
Little Fairy Doctor listened attentively without interrupting.
"But you need to know one thing."
Su Ye's tone became slightly deeper.
Little Fairy Doctor pursed her lips, waiting for him to continue.
"On the Dou Qi Continent, whether it is the Calamity Poison Body or any other special physique, it is just the starting point on the path of cultivation."
"A good physique can help you progress faster in the early and mid-game, but progressing faster and progressing further are two different things."
The Little Fairy Doctor seemed to understand, but not quite.
"You mean—there's an upper limit to physical fitness?"
Su Ye nodded.
"There is no physique in the world that allows someone to reach their peak simply by lying down."
"The secret realm cultivation method cultivates the universe within the human body itself, and the potential of any physique will eventually be exhausted one day."
He paused for a moment and looked into Little Fairy Doctor's eyes.
"At that point, what will determine whether you can continue to move forward will no longer be your physical strength, but your own opportunities, understanding, and talent."
Little Fairy Doctor remained silent for a moment.
Then, her gaze hardened.
"I never thought I could rely on my physical condition to get to the end."
"I'm lucky to have been able to control it and stop being devoured by it; I've already been given a second chance at life."
Little Fairy Doctor raised her head and met Su Ye's gaze.
"No matter how difficult the road ahead may be, I will continue to walk it step by step."
Su Ye looked into her eyes and nodded slightly.
"It's good that you have this awareness."
He didn't say anything more about his physical condition.
Some things are better left unsaid.
Dou Di, the Great Thousand World.
These are still too far off for Little Fairy Doctor.
What she can do right now is to work diligently and perfect each realm she has cultivated.
Su Ye remained silent.
The Calamity Poison Body is a special physique in the Doupo world that is enough to shake the entire Douqi Continent.
It allows one to cultivate by ingesting poison, resulting in rapid progress.
Those who cultivate to the highest level become the strongest experts on the Dou Qi Continent.
