"Could this Nine Yang Poison Scripture be related to Qi Yunxiao's Nine Yang Poison Body?"

After putting away the Myriad Soul Banner, Yan Lin continued examining Qi Yunxiao's attribute panel. The Nine Yang Poison Scripture and Nine Yang Poison Body differed by only one word, making it seem as though they were connected.

As his gaze moved downward, Yan Lin saw that Qi Yunxiao possessed many high-tier Dou Techniques, but Yan Lin lacked no Dou Techniques himself and did not pay them much attention.

However, when he saw the medicinal pill section, his eyes lit up again. "It's actually a seventh-tier Humanoid Pill!"

"With this pill, I can take human form ahead of time and enter human territory."

A hint of delight appeared on Yan Lin's sharply sculpted handsome face.

Qi Yunxiao really was his little treasure-delivering boy, bringing him so many surprises.

He even regretted scattering Qi Yunxiao's ashes earlier.

Of course, that was merely a passing thought.

If he had to do it again, he would still make the same choice.

Though it was immoral, his heart was at peace.

Better for others to feel uncomfortable than for him to feel uncomfortable.

"I can move up my trip to the Monster Mountain Range. The plan needs to change as well."

The appearance of the Humanoid Pill disrupted Yan Lin's previous plans. But this was a good thing. After all, leaving the Tagor Desert sooner would be more beneficial to him.

Yan Lin was feeling absolutely fantastic right now.

Especially when he saw Qi Yunxiao's vast collection of pills, medicinal ingredients, magic cores, and other treasures, he was overjoyed.

"No wonder everyone says alchemists are the richest. This guy is practically a walking treasure vault."

Qi Yunxiao gave Yan Lin a long-lost thrill of looting.

In his previous life, when playing PUBG, he loved lying in the grass and camping before looting other players.

Sometimes, he got so carried away looting that another camper would kill him and turn him into a box. Yet he still loved that feeling of abundance, the kind where he would not leave until his backpack was completely full.

Qi Yunxiao's collection gave him that exact feeling now.

Given Yan Lin's current status, ordinary items could no longer catch his eye. Yet Qi Yunxiao had surprised him time and again, and most of the things the man had collected stirred Yan Lin's greed, making him want to claim them for himself.

It had to be said that Qi Yunxiao was truly filthy rich.

"What would be the best attribute to copy?"

After thoroughly understanding Qi Yunxiao's attributes, Yan Lin began considering which one to copy.

Among the special attributes, Qi Yunxiao's Alchemy Talent and Cultivation Talent were utterly terrible, so they were not even within Yan Lin's consideration.

As for the Nine Yang Poison Body, Yan Lin felt that this physique might be connected to the Nine Yang Poison Scripture, so he examined the scripture. He discovered that the Nine Yang Poison Body was indeed a special acquired poison body cultivated through this technique using various extremely yang poisonous substances.

This poison body was acquired and could not compare to Xiao Yi Xian's Tribulation Poison Body. However, it would greatly help him increase his strength along the path of a Poison Master.

Qi Yunxiao had relied on cultivating this technique, along with the inheritance left behind by his predecessors, to rise from being less than a Dou Zhe to his current Dou Wang realm.

All he could say was that evil cultivators advanced quickly.

However, the Nine Yang Poison Scripture was similar to Yan Lin's Crimson Refining Sky Burning Art, so Yan Lin had no intention of cultivating it.

As for the Soul Techniques, Dou Techniques, pills, and other treasures, they were all inside Qi Yunxiao's Ring. There was no need to copy their attributes.

After thinking it over, Yan Lin decided to copy the seventh-tier pill, the "Humanoid Pill."

"With an extra Humanoid Pill, I can see Medusa's legs sooner. Or when I look for Zi Yan in the future, I can fool that little girl..."

With this somewhat immature thought in mind, Yan Lin chose to copy the "Humanoid Pill" attribute.

When a Humanoid Pill appeared out of thin air in his hand, Qi Yunxiao's attribute panel dissipated as well, never to be seen again.

Inside the Queen's bedchamber of the Medusa Temple.

Today, Queen Medusa wore a regal purple brocade robe. Her full, delicate figure was outlined by the custom-made garment, its curves and lines displayed to perfection.

Even beneath her purple veil, her bewitching beauty could not be concealed. Her narrow pale-purple eyes held an innate allure as they shifted, nearly pulling in the gaze of every man.

Below the purple brocade robe, a section of her purple snake tail was exposed. It swayed slightly, carrying a wild sort of temptation.

Yan Lin could not help sneaking a few more glances. He was rather eager to see what kind of alluring, captivating long legs Queen Medusa's snake tail would turn into after she took the seventh-tier Humanoid Pill.

Perhaps because human thoughts dominated his mind, Yan Lin still preferred long legs that could wear black stockings.

Of course, a snake tail would do as well. After all, he had been a snake person for more than a decade. It was normal for his tastes to change somewhat.

He was not that picky.

It was just that a snake tail could not wear black stockings or fishnets. Hmm, it always felt like something was missing.

Then Yan Lin thought that snake tails had their own unique allure. Switching back and forth in the future and enjoying another special kind of experience seemed rather nice too.

Queen Medusa had long grown used to his unrestrained gaze, since she herself had indulged him.

Her peerless face beneath the veil remained calm, but she said, "Looks like your skin is itching again. Double your training tomorrow."

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Yan Lin's lips. He showed no fear whatsoever.

Over the years, he had long become accustomed to Medusa using all sorts of excuses to train him.

He had gone from initial resistance to calmly accepting it now.

Queen Medusa truly beat him up, but she truly let him look as well.

Yan Lin could improve his strength and enjoy the benefits at the same time, so naturally it did not feel so unbearable.

But now, he could no longer accompany Medusa.

"Sorry, but I'm afraid I can't train with the Queen anymore."

Queen Medusa's brows furrowed slightly. "You have something to do?"

"I obtained a Humanoid Pill. It belonged to Qi Yunxiao."

Her elegant brows lifted slightly, and a trace of surprise appeared between Medusa's brows. She had not expected Qi Yunxiao to possess a seventh-tier Humanoid Pill.

However, Medusa did not particularly desire the Humanoid Pill. What she wanted was to break through to Dou Zong.

The Humanoid Pill could only help her completely shed her beast form, allowing her to possess the long lifespan of a magical beast and the Cultivation Talent of a human from then on. It would not offer much help in breaking through to Dou Zong.

Moreover, Medusa's advancement to Dou Zong differed from that of others. Only by undergoing a bloodline transformation could she break through the shackles of her realm and advance further.

Otherwise, she would not have been trapped at the Peak Dou Emperor for so many years.

"You want to take human form? That's good. With the Humanoid Pill, you'll be able to cultivate faster as well." Medusa's brows relaxed, her voice still as enchanting and bone-melting as ever.

Seeing that she seemed completely unmoved by the Humanoid Pill, Yan Lin asked curiously with a smile, "Don't you want to take human form?"

"Don't you want it?" Medusa replied naturally.

"Just because I want it, you'll give it to me?"

Meeting Yan Lin's blazing, probing gaze, Medusa's eyes rippled slightly. Her pretty face beneath the veil showed no emotion as she said coldly, "Don't flatter yourself. The Humanoid Pill is of no use to This King. Once I break through to Dou Zong, I can take human form anyway. This King simply does not wish to waste a pill."

She was already at the Peak Dou Emperor. As long as she broke through to Dou Zong, she could take human form, so there truly was no need to waste this Humanoid Pill.

But whether that was truly what she felt was impossible to know.

Yan Lin merely smiled and sighed, "What a pity."

"What's a pity?" Queen Medusa did not know why she asked, but the words left her mouth anyway.

Yan Lin's eyes shifted slightly, his gaze settling on Queen Medusa's purple snake tail. With a teasing yet seemingly sincere tone, he said, "I really want to see what the Queen looks like after growing legs. They should be very beautiful, right?"

After speaking, his gaze met that of the beautiful woman on the throne once more.

Medusa could see the anticipation and fervor in his eyes. Her willow brows furrowed slightly. "What is there to see about human legs?"

Though she said so, Medusa's narrow pale-purple eyes shifted as her gaze lowered to examine the purple snake tail she had possessed since birth. She did not think there was anything wrong with it, and she could not quite understand Yan Lin's peculiar preference.
