Learning an Earth Rank Dou Technique

"Pah! Shameless!" Little Fairy Doctor's pretty face flushed red after hearing Yun Shu's words.

"Really, I had a feeling you would go there, and you actually did. It's not like I can see the future, right?" Yun Shu said, sitting on the ground and spreading his hands.

Hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor fell silent as well. Yun Shu was right—he couldn't possibly predict the future...

Yun Shu picked up the Seven-Colored Poison Manual, then walked over to Little Fairy Doctor and placed it in her hands.

"Oh, right, you don't have a Ring of Holding yet, do you? I happen to have one here, so I'll give it to you too!" Yun Shu reached into his robes, took a low-grade Ring of Holding from his Storage Space, and handed it to Little Fairy Doctor.

"Why are you... treating me so well? Do you have some ulterior motive?" Little Fairy Doctor was even more confused now. Her mind was in turmoil, and so was her heart. Wasn't this person being completely inexplicable...?

"Hmm... if I really have to say it, think of it as an investment," Yun Shu said after rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

"An investment?" Little Fairy Doctor asked in confusion.

"Look, you have the Woeful Poison Body. You can grow stronger by consuming poison, so your cultivation speed will definitely be incredibly fast. Normal people like us can't possibly compare. Once you become powerful, won't you have a favorable impression of me, someone who treated you well? Then, if I ask you for help in the future, you won't refuse, right? Wouldn't that make me rich?"

"With just one Ring of Holding and a poison manual that's useless to me, I can hire a Dou Emperor, perhaps even a Dou Zong or Dou Zun expert to work for me in the future. Isn't that a great bargain?" Yun Shu said with a grin.

However, when he looked at Little Fairy Doctor, he realized that she seemed completely depressed.

"Woeful Poison Body... so that was why... my parents, my family..." Little Fairy Doctor murmured blankly.

"Uh..." Yun Shu frowned. Could it be that Little Fairy Doctor still didn't know she had the Woeful Poison Body?

"Right! In the original story, Little Fairy Doctor seemed to have learned that she possessed the Woeful Poison Body only after obtaining the Seven-Colored Poison Manual and reading its records. Before that, those she had poisoned to death merely called her a Grand Poison Master..." Thinking of this, Yun Shu felt helpless.

"Hey, don't worry! The Woeful Poison Body isn't impossible to cure. Don't worry, I'll definitely help you deal with it!" Yun Shu could only step forward to comfort her. Still, resolving the Woeful Poison Body really wasn't difficult for him.

Yao Lao definitely knew a way, and Yun Shu also had the system, which could draw things from the Myriad Realms. Maybe there was some special method that could deal with the Woeful Poison Body.

"Really?!" Upon hearing Yun Shu say that the Woeful Poison Body could be cured, Little Fairy Doctor returned to her former self once again.

"Yeah. My teacher is an Eighth-Rank Alchemist. He should know how to cure the Woeful Poison Body! Once I return, I'll ask him for you!" Yun Shu nodded.

Although Yun Shu had not read the later parts of the story, he had searched online. The Woeful Poison Body was indeed resolved in the end, and Little Fairy Doctor's strength even soared beyond the Dou Zun level because of it.

"Oh my god! An Eighth-Rank Alchemist! Then you are..." Little Fairy Doctor covered her mouth in shock upon hearing Yun Shu's words.

"I'm Third-Rank." Yun Shu smiled faintly.

"Then it's a deal. Once I become stronger, I'll work for you, and you have to help me resolve my Woeful Poison Body!" After learning that Yun Shu and his teacher were so formidable, Little Fairy Doctor immediately regained hope for her future.

"No problem! Then keep this Seven-Colored Poison Manual for now. It should help you become stronger." Yun Shu picked up the Seven-Colored Poison Manual and Ring of Holding that Little Fairy Doctor had dropped while depressed, then placed them back in her hands.

"Thank you!" After accepting the Ring of Holding and Seven-Colored Poison Manual, Little Fairy Doctor thanked Yun Shu.

"Alright, I'm going back to continue my training. You need to stay safe too! You're going to be my subordinate in the future, remember that!" Yun Shu was preparing to leave. Although Little Fairy Doctor was also a beauty, Yun Shu was in no hurry. It would not be too late to have her after she became stronger.

"I understand!" Having learned that there was a way to resolve her detested constitution, Little Fairy Doctor's mood clearly became much brighter.

She stopped gathering herbs and headed straight back.

"Alright, I need to go back and continue practicing my Earth Rank Dou Technique!" Yun Shu let out a breath and quickly ran back in the direction he had come from.

"Brat, you came back so quickly?" Yao Lao said in surprise upon seeing Yun Shu.

"What were you thinking..." Yun Shu said with dark lines across his face.

"Ahem! Since you're back, continue practicing your Dou Technique. You haven't fully mastered it yet!" Yao Lao waved a hand.

"Oh, right, Teacher! Do you have a way to resolve the Woeful Poison Body?" Yun Shu suddenly asked.

"The Woeful Poison Body? That little girl has such a terrifying constitution?" Yao Lao asked in shock.

"The Woeful Poison Body? Is it Little Fairy Doctor?" Xiao Yan, standing nearby, was also confused.

"Yes. Is there a way to deal with her Woeful Poison Body? I promised her I'd help her resolve it." Yun Shu nodded.

"That won't be easy..." Yao Lao sighed.

"Teacher, what is the Woeful Poison Body?" Xiao Yan asked, utterly confused by their conversation.

"Simply put, someone with this constitution needs to consume poison, and consuming poison makes them stronger. As a result, people with this constitution are basically poisonous from head to toe! Once it erupts, no one within several miles will survive!" Yun Shu explained.

"What?!" Xiao Yan's expression abruptly changed. After all, he had traveled with Little Fairy Doctor before.

"But don't worry. Her Woeful Poison Body has only just awakened. As long as you don't touch her, there generally won't be any problem!" Yun Shu said with a dismissive wave.

"That's good!" Xiao Yan immediately sighed in relief.

"As for dealing with the Woeful Poison Body, we'll discuss it later. Even if there is a solution, with your current strength, you can't accomplish it." After thinking for a moment, Yao Lao spoke.

"Alright, then I'll practice my Dou Technique first!" Since there was a solution, Yun Shu was not in a rush. He should focus on training first.

Thus, Yun Shu once again immersed himself in practicing the Earth Rank Dou Technique.

A day passed...

Earth Rank Dou Technique, Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler, mastered!!

Although he still could not bring out the Dou Technique's full power, it did not stop Yun Shu from using the move.

"Teacher, do you have any lower-level Dou Techniques that also use weapons in battle?" Yun Shu would not be satisfied with just one Dou Technique. Naturally, he wanted to learn several more.

"You've learned an Earth Rank Dou Technique, and you're still not satisfied?" Yao Lao stared at Yun Shu with wide eyes.

"I just want to treat this move as a trump card!" Yun Shu said with a laugh, scratching his head.

"Fine, then I'll teach you another Profound Rank Middle Level one..."
