PS: I made a slight change: the physical copy of the Heavenly Poison Sacred Scripture was changed to being directly infused into the Protagonist's mind.

The Heavenly Poison Sacred Scripture was not created by a single person or sect. Instead, it contained the accumulated essence and insights of generations of Calamity Poison Bodies regarding the path of poison. Besides the location of the Netherworld Poison Flame, which Chen Yang cared about most, the Heavenly Poison Sacred Scripture also contained an Earth Tier High-Grade Cultivation Method, the Heavenly Poison Netherworld Art, as well as three Earth-tier Dou Skills.

Medicine Elder's Poison Pill Method was also recorded within it, along with methods for concocting poisons and antidotes.

The Heavenly Poison Sacred Scripture also clearly stated that the Netherworld Poison Flame was the optimal solution for a Calamity Poison Body. When the Heavenly Poison Netherworld Art was paired with the Netherworld Poison Flame, its power could rival that of a Heaven-tier Low-grade Cultivation Method.

This is practically a godsend! Chen Yang inwardly sighed. He then compared the detailed location of the Netherworld Poison Flame marked in the Heavenly Poison Sacred Scripture with the map of the Dou Qi Continent in his mind. The Netherworld Poison Flame really is in the Chuyun Empire. Looks like my previous guess was correct.

This Netherworld Poison Flame had been controlled by the Calamity Poison Body of Dou Zun rank mentioned by Medicine Elder. After escaping from the hands of three Ban Sheng experts from the Soul Hall, that person had fled all the way to the Northwest Region, built a cave dwelling, and then passed away there.

The waters of the Chuyun Empire run pretty deep. Even if Xie Bi Yan isn't a Three-star Dou Zong now, he's at least a Two-star Dou Zong. Hmm... I should wait until after the Tagor Desert trip before going. There's no rush.

Besides, this Heavenly Poison Netherworld Art can also suppress the Calamity Poison Body to some extent. There's no need to worry about it erupting before reaching the Dou Emperor realm.

The system's arrangements this time were truly impeccable, resolving all of Chen Yang's worries.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang casually reached out and rubbed Xiao Yi Xian's head. The girl was already in high spirits, skipping about happily, and after receiving Chen Yang's Head-Pat Kill, she became even happier.

Seeing how cheerful and lively Xiao Yi Xian was, Chen Yang planned to copy out the Cultivation Method inside for her to practice in a few days. As for the source of the Cultivation Techniques and Dou Techniques, he could simply blame some vague sect or Clan. After all, their sect had an incredibly deep foundation. Their specialty was cheating!

Chen Yang and Xiao Yi Xian retraced the path they had taken when they first arrived and once again reached the cliff above the cave.

Standing at the edge of the cliff, Xiao Yi Xian took a deep breath and looked down at the bottomless valley, as well as the Stone Platform jutting out in midair.

Chen Yang gently wrapped an arm around Xiao Yi Xian's slender waist and, just as they had done when they first came here, leaped straight down.

This time, Xiao Yi Xian was no longer frightened. Instead, she gazed dazedly at Chen Yang's face, savoring the memory of her first flutter of affection.

Thud!

The two of them landed lightly on the Stone Platform. Turning around, they looked toward the deep Passageway, as though they had returned to that day once more.

"Chen Yang, I'll take you somewhere nice!"

Xiao Yi Xian tilted her head toward Chen Yang and suddenly spoke.

"Sure!"

Chen Yang Nodded. He guessed that Xiao Yi Xian was taking him to that secret base—the valley filled with tremendous energy.

Seeing Chen Yang agree, Xiao Yi Xian happily took out a bamboo flute from her Storage Ring, placed it to her lips, and played it.

A few breaths later, a clear cry came from the sky. Then, a massive azure bird flew over.

"This is my companion, Xiao Lan, a First-tier Magical Beast called a Blue Eagle!" Xiao Yi Xian said to Chen Yang with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to have such an adorable companion. I'll introduce you to an adorable Magical Beast someday too." Chen Yang praised the Blue Eagle, then hugged Xiao Yi Xian and leaped onto its back.

"Xiao Lan, home!"

The valley that had allowed Xiao Yan and Zi Yan to break through to the Dou Emperor realm indeed possessed something extraordinary. The energy here was incredibly abundant. Chen Yang felt that if he stayed here for a year or so, he might smoothly break through to the Dou Zong realm.

The value of the Nine Yang Divine Physique continued to rise.

"How is it?"

"This place isn't bad, right?"

Xiao Yi Xian stood on the steps of the Small Wooden House with her hands behind her back, looking at Chen Yang with a slightly proud expression.

"This is practically a paradise beyond the world. Once we break through to Dou Di in the future, we can come here and live in seclusion for a while. Then we can have two children too. Heh..."

Chen Yang rubbed his chin as he looked around.

"Who... who wants to have children with you? Pah..."

A blush spread across Xiao Yi Xian's face. She lightly spat at Chen Yang, then turned and ran into the house to clean up.

No one had been here for a long time, and a layer of dust had already settled everywhere.

"Hahaha..."

After running into the house, Xiao Yi Xian could only hear Chen Yang's hearty laughter outside. A trace of sweetness appeared on her flushed face as she hummed the little tune Chen Yang had once hummed and cheerfully tidied up the room.

That night, after dinner, the two spent their first night in the Monster Mountain Range.

Xiao Yi Xian and Chen Yang were around the same age, both eighteen or nineteen. People on the Dou Qi Continent were devoted to cultivation, so although this was an ancient setting, girls did not marry particularly early. Thus, Xiao Yi Xian was still rather shy about their first time living together.

That night, Chen Yang taught Xiao Yi Xian plenty of riding knowledge. It was as if she had opened the door to a whole new world, gradually going from a complete novice who knew nothing to learning the skills of riding on her own.

But those of us who had ridden since childhood knew that riding for too long not only made one's legs weak and sore, but also left one exhausted.

So the next morning, Xiao Yi Xian not only woke up late, but even limped when she got out of bed.

"Bad man!"

Xiao Yi Xian looked at Chen Yang and scolded him shyly.

"Yes, yes, I'm a bad man. I'm a terrible man!"

Chen Yang reached out and pulled Xiao Yi Xian into his arms, then stuffed a healing Medicinal Pill into her mouth. This was a Fourth-grade healing pill. Even the Amethyst Winged Lion King would benefit from it. For a One-star Dou Zhe like Xiao Yi Xian, its effects were simply incredible.

As Xiao Yi Xian gradually regained her vitality, Chen Yang suddenly thought of something. He leaned close to her ear and softly said, "Tell me, after taking this healing pill, will the injuries caused by riding completely recover?"

Xiao Yi Xian froze upon hearing that, then began hammering Chen Yang all over with her shy little fists.

"Hahaha..."

Xiao Yi Xian's coquettish protests and Chen Yang's laughter echoed continuously through the valley. Above them, the Blue Eagle looked at its Master and Master's husband in confusion, thinking that humans were truly strange...

That afternoon, after the two finished eating, Chen Yang had Xiao Yi Xian rest in the valley while he spread his Dou Qi Wings, shot into the air, and flew straight toward the Amethyst Winged Lion King's cave dwelling.

When he arrived, the Amethyst Winged Lion King had already prepared the Medicinal Materials.

"Pack up. We're moving!"

Chen Yang smiled as he put away the Medicinal Materials and spoke to the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

"Yes, Master!"

The Amethyst Winged Lion King did not hesitate much. It did not have many belongings, so it only needed to bring some Purple Spirit Crystals and its cubs.

At this moment, above the valley, the Blue Eagle stood on a tree with its eyes closed, dozing lightly. Suddenly, a pressure from the depths of its soul made it tremble uncontrollably.

Raising its bird head, the Blue Eagle saw an Amethyst Winged Lion King so immense it blotted out the sky flying toward them, then descending into the valley.

Screech!

The Blue Eagle let out a miserable cry, trying to wake its sleeping Master. Then its large eyes glanced aside, and it saw Chen Yang standing atop the Amethyst Winged Lion King's head.

"Huh???"

The brain of a First-tier Magical Beast like the Blue Eagle simply could not understand...
