Chapter 26: Hundredfold Feedback! Perfect Woe Poison Body!
Xiao Ze concealed his aura, hiding amidst the leaves; the magical beasts fleeing in panic did not notice his presence.
This was still the outer perimeter of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, home only to the lowest-level Rank 1 magical beasts, or even mere wild animals.
Even if they swarmed him, they would pose no threat to Xiao Ze.
What truly worried him was the cause driving these beasts to flee in such a scramble.
Magical beasts are cunning and treacherous, possessing a keen sense for danger.
What on earth could be terrifying enough to make them act this way?
Could it be that a high-level magical beast from the depths of the Magical Beast Mountain Range had come out to forage?
Generally speaking, high-level magical beasts rarely venture into the outer perimeter to hunt.
Because for their level, the beasts in the outer area are merely a snack, offering no real benefit.
After waiting for a while, the beasts had all vanished from sight, yet Xiao Ze sensed no danger approaching.
"Have these beasts gone mad?"
Xiao Ze hid in the tree for another quarter of an hour, realizing that staying put was not a solution.
"I might as well bypass this area!"
Xiao Ze quickly descended to the ground and checked his map.
He discovered that the location of Green Mountain Town was situated just enough to avoid the direction from which the beasts had come.
"On the Dou Qi Continent, one shouldn't be too curious. Adventures belong to others; I'd better just honestly rely on my feedback system to grow stronger!"
Xiao Ze put away the map and headed toward Green Mountain Town.
Sure enough, he found no signs of mass stampedes along the way.
Xiao Ze breathed a slight sigh of relief, though he still carefully observed his surroundings.
This was still the outer perimeter of the Magical Beast Mountain Range; there was no guarantee he wouldn't run into a beast.
Come to think of it, running into that Rank 2 magical beast earlier had been pure bad luck.
The creatures most active in the outer perimeter are actually wild animals and Rank 1 magical beasts.
Rank 2 magical beasts are relatively rare.
Perhaps that beast was a flying type with a wider hunting range, making it just bad luck that Xiao Ze had crossed its path.
Suddenly, Xiao Ze spotted a black palm print on a tree trunk ahead.
His attention sharpened instantly, and he frantically scanned the surroundings with his soul perception.
He sensed neither magical beasts nor humans.
Xiao Ze approached the black palm print; he could vaguely tell it was a human hand, though he couldn't distinguish the gender.
He discovered that the mark didn't seem to be caused by fire-attribute Dou Qi burning, but rather by something corrosive!
Xiao Ze plucked a handful of weeds from his feet and carefully placed them over the black palm print.
In the blink of an eye, the weeds turned black.
Seeing this, Xiao Ze quickly shook off the weeds.
At the same time, he flicked away the pale blue Dou Qi covering his hand, replaced it with a fresh layer, and then carefully examined his palm.
After confirming he was unharmed, Xiao Ze finally let out a sigh of relief.
Through that test, he had confirmed that this black palm print was caused by a potent poison!
"To run into something so highly toxic near Green Mountain Town, it's hard not to let my imagination run wild!"
Xiao Ze observed the area and found that the trail of palm prints extended deep into the forest.
At the same time, he took out his map and compared it to his current position.
Sure enough, the direction the palm prints led was exactly where the magical beasts had been fleeing from!
"Could it be that Xiao Yi Xian's Perfect Woe Poison Body has flared up?"
Xiao Ze hesitated for a moment, but decided to go and take a look.
Because he had detected no residual Dou Qi on the black palm prints.
This meant the existence that left these toxic marks was likely just an ordinary person, not a cultivator!
Even if it wasn't Xiao Yi Xian, Xiao Ze would still have room to escape.
As for fighting something with such lethal poison, Xiao Ze felt it was best to avoid that.
Following the trail of toxic palm prints, Xiao Ze moved forward, passing weeds that had been contaminated and withered into piles of dead grass.
Xiao Ze carefully avoided the withered grass, his body covered in an airtight Dou Qi gauze to prevent any ash from the dead plants from landing on him.
After traveling for some time, he arrived at a small valley.
A new system notification appeared before Xiao Ze's eyes.
[Xiao Yi Xian: Can bind Woe Poison Body, Medical Arts, Beast Taming Arts]
Seeing the system prompt, Xiao Ze knew he was set!
The existence in the valley was none other than Xiao Yi Xian, currently suffering from an outbreak of the Woe Poison Body!
Among the several bindable options, only the Woe Poison Body was pale gold, while the others were white!
Xiao Ze had no idea what criteria the system used to categorize these abilities.
However, it was likely based on talent level, rarity, growth potential, and the like.
The highest-rated evaluation Xiao Ze had seen so far.
Was the Ancient Clan God-Grade Dou Di Bloodline on Xiao Xun'er, its color so rich it was like dark gold!
Right now, the Woe Poison Body on Xiao Yi Xian was the second gold-rated ability he had encountered!
Xiao Ze did not hesitate and immediately chose to bind the Woe Poison Body!
[Host has successfully bound Xiao Yi Xian's Woe Poison Body!]
Seeing the system prompt, Xiao Ze breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Woe Poison Body had many drawbacks, its benefits were even more obvious!
In the original story, when Xiao Yi Xian reunited with Xiao Yan years later, she was still able to outpace his progress.
One could imagine just how powerful the Woe Poison Body was.
At that time, Xiao Yan had already swallowed two Heavenly Flames!
His cultivation had soared like a rocket, leaving all the geniuses of his age at Jia Nan Academy far behind!
Even under such circumstances, Xiao Yi Xian was still able to pull ahead of Xiao Yan!
Not to mention that he also had the system's multi-fold feedback.
Perhaps he could even erase those drawbacks through the feedback rewards!
Xiao Ze looked at Xiao Yi Xian, who had fallen into a coma in the valley.
Under normal circumstances, the Woe Poison Body would not erupt unless Xiao Yi Xian consumed poison, which would increase the toxicity of the Woe Poison Body.
But before the events in the Chu Yun Empire, Xiao Yi Xian was extremely resistant to consuming poison.
Perhaps it was because she had caused a disaster after consuming poison in the past.
Xiao Ze thought to himself while looking forward to the upcoming feedback.
Generally, after an outbreak of the Woe Poison Body, the contained toxicity would increase.
Until finally, even the Woe Poison Body could no longer suppress the toxicity within the body!
The possessor of the Woe Poison Body would then suffer the agony of ten thousand poisons devouring their body!
In the state of being eroded by ten thousand poisons, they would be poisoned to death while still alive!
Therefore, once this round of the outbreak ended, the Woe Poison Body would improve!
Xiao Ze waited patiently, and not long after, the system prompt finally appeared again!
[Xiao Yi Xian has consumed poison, toxicity has increased, Woe Poison Body has improved!]
[Congratulations to the Host for receiving a hundred-fold feedback! Perfect Woe Poison Body!]
"Hiss!"
Xiao Ze's eyes widened instantly.
Was this a special benefit for the first time?
It actually triggered a hundred-fold feedback!
Xiao Ze glanced at Xiao Yi Xian; seeing no signs of her waking up, he immediately chose to claim the reward!
Since the system dared to label it the Perfect Woe Poison Body, it must have removed many of the drawbacks.
With that, Xiao Ze felt safe enough to claim it!
Boom!
In an instant!
Xiao Ze felt as if he were experiencing the Big Bang; his body underwent destruction thousands of times, only to be revived from that destruction!
"Ugh—"
Xiao Ze's eyes snapped open, his entire body instantly soaked in cold sweat.
The agony of destruction and the ecstasy of revival were etched into his soul!
These sensations clearly told him.
The experience of that single moment just now was real!
"As expected of the Woe Poison Body, even receiving the reward is this stimulating."
"It's fortunate that it compressed all of this into an instant, otherwise I really wouldn't be sure if I could have endured it!"
Xiao Ze said with a sense of relief.
Coming back to his senses, Xiao Ze realized that his Dou Qi cultivation had surged by six stars in one go!
That meant he was now an eight-star Dou Master!
"The Woeful Poison Body is truly terrifying!"
