Chapter 37: Chapter 37: The Choice



More than a month later.

In a forest outside Qingshan Town, Qinglin was sitting cross-legged on a mat beneath an ancient tree, forming seals with her hands as she practiced. Wisps of pale white energy flowed from the air and continuously surged into her body.

Not far away, Linyuan leaned against the ancient tree, gently flipping through an ancient book in his hands. He used his soul power to block out the surrounding noise while also sensing the area to prevent any disturbances from interrupting Qinglin's breakthrough. Opportunities to break through the bottleneck of the late stage of fighting qi were quite rare.

Suddenly, Linyuan turned his head towards the northwest direction. Several hundred meters away, a second-tier black-patterned leopard was approaching. Linyuan's eyes narrowed, and an invisible wave of soul energy was sent out towards the northwest. Upon encountering this wave, the black-patterned leopard was startled and jumped back, as if it had seen something terrifying ahead, and it quickly fled in the opposite direction.

Linyuan withdrew his gaze, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. His research on using soul power to simulate the illusions created by the Bi Snake's Three Flower Eyes had finally yielded some results, though it was still somewhat impractical, only effective when there was a significant difference in soul power. In battles of the same realm, it was basically useless. In contrast, his research on countering illusions had been quite fruitful.

"Time, oh time, what I lack the most is time."

Sensing a change in the aura ahead, Linyuan looked at Qinglin and nodded slightly. "It seems you're about to break through."

On the mat, as fighting qi continuously flowed in, the mysterious green energy within Qinglin's body also surged, nourishing her physical form. As the last wisp of fighting qi entered her body, a radiant glow like that of beautiful jade emanated from her face, and her aura stabilized completely.

Nine segments of fighting qi, achieved.

"Young master, young master, I've broken through to the nine segments of fighting qi!" Qinglin opened her eyes and ran to Linyuan's side, excitedly exclaiming.

"Yes, our Qing'er is indeed outstanding. You'll soon become a fighter," Linyuan said, patting Qinglin's little head, and his evaluation of the Bi Snake's Three Flower Eyes rose a notch in his heart.

While ordinary people needed years to break through from the eighth to the ninth segment of fighting qi, Qinglin had done it in less than a month for each segment, and her foundation was very solid. After awakening the Bi Snake's Three Flower Eyes, the energy that continuously nourished her body had laid an extremely firm foundation.

"Hehe!"

"Today's training ends here. Young master will take you to a beautiful place in the Beast Mountain Range. The scenery is lovely, and your little medical fairy sister is there too. Today, I'll cook a delicious meal for you."

"Really? That's great! I can see little medical fairy sister again."

Qinglin was a bit happy. A month ago, when the little medical fairy visited her home, they became acquainted. They had met a few times since, and they hit it off immediately. The little medical fairy was very fond of the seemingly delicate Qinglin and taught her many dressing and grooming tips. Qinglin admired the beautiful, kind, wise, and mature older sister, seeing her as the embodiment of a perfect woman.

"By the way, this is for you. It's a return gift for the robe. I really like this robe you made, Qing'er." Linyuan took out a carefully selected bracelet and handed it to Qinglin. It was exquisitely crafted, with a small bell that would emit a pleasant sound when shaken.

Qinglin accepted the bracelet and looked at Linyuan's well-fitted blue robe, revealing a silly smile. She had sewn this robe for him by hand during her training.

"Thank you, young master." It was unclear whether she was thanking him for the bracelet or the robe.

"Let's go." With that, Linyuan stepped towards the direction of the Beast Mountain Range.

"But, young master, isn't it very far from here to the Beast Mountain Range? Shouldn't we fly directly there?" Qinglin asked, somewhat puzzled.

Linyuan looked into the distance and sighed lightly. "Let's take a walk first. We'll go over later, giving your little medical fairy sister some time. Today must be quite torturous for her!"

Deep within the basin of the Beast Mountain Range, there was a valley completely isolated from the outside world, shrouded in thick fog, making it extremely concealed. The only way to enter this place from the outside was by flying.

Inside the valley, energy was abundant, and various precious herbs grew, with the fragrance of medicine wafting through the air, resembling a paradise.

At this moment, the little medical fairy was sitting on a patch of grass in the valley, with the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture spread across her lap. In her hand, she held a small jade bottle filled with a purplish-red liquid, her gaze lost as she stared at the bottle. This was a poison concocted from the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, the key to unlocking her cursed poison body.

At this moment, her body's instincts were calling her to drink the liquid before her, yet her heart was still struggling. Drinking this liquid would be a path of no return.

The little medical fairy recalled the events of the past few days: the mundane trivialities, Mr. Yao's flattery and schemes, the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's covetous gaze, and so on. She had gradually grown impatient with the things she used to handle with patience and tact.

Since learning that she possessed the cursed poison body, her mindset had unknowingly changed. Even if she forced herself to live according to her previous rhythm, her heart was constantly questioning whether she was wasting her time. Especially when she realized that her seemingly delicate Qinglin also had a special physique and was making rapid progress on her cultivation path, this inner questioning intensified.

The events of half a month ago made her aware of how fragile ordinary days without power could be. If it weren't for Linyuan's intervention, she didn't know what situation she would be in right now.

She gradually came to understand one thing: a beautiful person who is unwilling to be a mere plaything is destined to be far from an ordinary life. Deep down, she yearned for the strength that Linyuan had once shown her.

Since learning that she was the cursed poison body, whether it was a physical or psychological effect, the little medical fairy now saw poison as a tempting delicacy.

"Is this what Linyuan meant by 'with a sharp blade in hand, the desire to kill arises'? Since I learned that I possess the cursed poison body, I have already embarked on a path of no return."

"Since I can't turn back, then I should face it boldly. Compared to the predecessors recorded in the Poison Scripture, at least I still have a friend, right?"

"As Linyuan said, this continent is full of extraordinary people and events; there may be a solution to the cursed poison body."

Countless complex emotions ultimately transformed into determination. The little medical fairy steeled her heart, opened the bottle, and drank the purplish-red liquid in one gulp. As the poison's effects began to take hold, she fainted and collapsed to the ground. A strange power slowly awakened within her, and the seven-colored hidden lines in her lower abdomen began to glow and grow slowly.

The cursed poison body awakened.
