The Terror of the Woe Poison Body, Refining the Dou Ling Pill!

Time flew by in the blink of an eye. Two months of life in the Imperial Capital had brought Little Doctor Fairy many sweet rewards, and her combat power had seen a qualitative leap. From being easily defeated at the start, she now showed a trend of being able to go toe-to-toe with Xiao Chen.

Although this was partly due to the boost in realm brought by her increased strength, it also served as side confirmation of the power of the Woe Poison Body.

"Xian'er is about to break through to a Dou Ling, isn't she? This can't go on like this; I need to speed up my own cultivation and raise my realm as well!"

Xiao Chen watched Little Doctor Fairy, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed refining poison pills, and a sense of crisis suddenly welled up in his heart. He suddenly understood the saying, "There are no exhausted fields, only tired oxen." Indeed, pearls of wisdom are pearls of wisdom; they hold true in any world.

As he thought, Xiao Chen's gaze fell once again upon Little Doctor Fairy's legs. "Hmm... this Woe Poison Body is truly fair... no, no, what am I thinking?"

"Xiao Chen, oh Xiao Chen, you cannot be this degenerate. You must grow stronger, you must become an Emperor, you must ascend to the Great Thousand World to become a Sovereign, and leave your name on the Firmament Ranking. Come on, you are the best!"

Xiao Chen suppressed the impulses in his heart, yet the moment this thought arose, Little Doctor Fairy on the bed opened her eyes. "Brother Xiao Chen, I feel like I've grown stronger again. Would you like to spar with Xian'er?"

"...6! Is this even playable without a nerf?"

Xiao Chen swallowed hard, the scene of two little figures fighting appearing in his mind.

[Angel Celestial]: Have you forgotten what you just said? Hold fast to your original intent! Do not be tempted by beauty; the bedchamber is the hero's grave!

[Demon Imp]: What are you babbling about? I want to see the training! Fast forward to the training!

[Angel Imp]: Bush? Bro? Are you really not putting the River Crab God in your eyes?

[Demon Imp]: Stop yapping, hurry up, if you're a man you must... mm... #~&%￥(If you have the guts, stop covering my mouth)!!!

After a painful internal struggle, Xiao Chen decided that he could not go against his heart and should act according to his desires.

[Angel Imp]: Didn't you say your original intent was to grow stronger? You call this your original intent?

[Demon Imp]: Hey! That was lesson one; now he has learned lesson two!

[Angel Imp]: ????

"Alright, don't cry when you lose in a moment!"

Xiao Chen punched the Angel Imp into oblivion and lunged at Little Doctor Fairy with a "Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain" stance. Unexpectedly, Little Doctor Fairy was already prepared; she executed a "Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell," tossing her outer garments away to dodge the lethal blow.

Seeing his strike miss, Xiao Chen flipped over to pin Little Doctor Fairy down. A nine-star Dou Shi was still a bit weak in front of a Dou Wang; even using both hands and feet, she failed to inflict any damage on Xiao Chen.

Seeing Xiao Chen's aggressive momentum, which seemed to grow stronger the more they fought, Little Doctor Fairy had no choice but to use her trump card. For her, her physical strength was not her greatest advantage; her true strength lay in poison. This was the terrifying aspect of the Woe Poison Body.

Little Doctor Fairy let out a delicate snort, brought her legs together, and exerted force to firmly clamp down on Xiao Chen, preventing his escape, while spitting a stream of toxic water onto him.

"Hiss~ You wicked woman, how vicious, to use such a despicable method against me!"

Xiao Chen felt the pain and couldn't help but gasp, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. Since Little Doctor Fairy was using poison, he couldn't be blamed for doing the same. It wasn't as if he didn't know how to use poison, right?

As the saying goes, medicine and poison come from the same source. The poison pills he had been refining lately weren't for nothing. Furthermore, if Little Doctor Fairy had the Woe Poison Body, did he not have one as well?

His Woe Poison Body was not a bit inferior to Little Doctor Fairy's; after all, it had been copied from her. Thinking of this, Xiao Chen stopped holding back and decided to teach Little Doctor Fairy a profound lesson.

A cold smirk curled Xiao Chen's lips as he activated his Woe Poison Body, accelerating his offensive speed and catching her off guard by releasing a concentrated burst of toxins.

Little Doctor Fairy was caught unprepared and struck directly. A large amount of toxin was injected into her body, the terrifying toxicity rapidly invading her neural pathways, even to the point where her Woe Poison Body couldn't absorb it.

In no time, Little Doctor Fairy lost control of her body and collapsed limply to the ground. "Brother Xiao Chen is cheating! We agreed not to use the Woe Poison Body!" Little Doctor Fairy glared at Xiao Chen, her eyes filled with unwillingness over her defeat.

"Xian'er, you were the one who cheated first, how can you blame me?"

Xiao Chen shrugged, his eyes full of teasing as he looked at her. "A mere nine-star Dou Shi, daring to challenge a Dou Wang. Do you know you were wrong now?"

"Hmph! It was clearly Brother Xiao Chen who cheated, otherwise how could I have lost?"

Little Doctor Fairy climbed up from the ground. Xiao Chen's poison was indeed strong, but in the face of the Woe Poison Body, even the strongest poison was useless.

Although Little Doctor Fairy couldn't refine it, she could use her poison Battle Qi to force it out of her body, which gave her the capital to fight again.

"Still being stubborn? Since Xian'er's mouth is so hard, I'll beat you until your mouth is soft!"

Seeing that Little Doctor Fairy was still unconvinced, Xiao Chen pulled out a stick and swung it fiercely toward her mouth.

Little Doctor Fairy never expected Xiao Chen to launch such a sudden attack, and with no defenses, she was hit squarely.

At this moment, there was no thought of cherishing the fair in Xiao Chen's mind, only a desire for victory. The stick in his hand rained down like raindrops, beating Little Doctor Fairy until she couldn't even speak.

Little Doctor Fairy whimpered in frustration, saying childishly, "Damn it, I won't admit defeat just like this. Once I become a Dou Ling, I will definitely take revenge!"

"If you want to win against me, then cultivate harder!"

Xiao Chen wore a smug smile, but in his heart, he had other thoughts. This battle had put a lot of pressure on him.

Little Doctor Fairy was progressing too quickly; both her strength and combat power were growing at a rapid pace. If this continued, he feared it wouldn't be long before he was truly defeated by her. "No, I really can't be lazy anymore. It's all the Demon Imp's fault for disturbing my focus!"

[Demon Imp]: You heartless bastard, how can you be so unconscionable? ****, let me ask you? Let me ask you? Are you even human?

"I'll refine a Dou Ling Pill, and while I'm at it, refine some fifth-tier poison pills to boost my strength!"

Xiao Chen's heart was as still as water; such a state was the perfect time to refine pills. It would be a waste not to.

(So why did Xiao Yan become better at alchemy after marriage? Even surpassing Yao Chen? I think I've found the reason!)

The Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame condensed into a pill furnace, while the Fallen Heart Flame and the Green Lotus Core Flame tempered several different medicinal herbs inside. If a high-level alchemist were here to see this, their jaws would likely drop, because Xiao Chen was actually trying to refine several different types of pills simultaneously.

That's right, simultaneously. And not by controlling several furnaces at once, but by using the same furnace to refine different pills. Such behavior would likely shatter the worldview of those alchemists.
