Chapter 37 Choice
More than a month later.

In a forest outside Qingshan Town, Qing Lin was sitting cross-legged on a cushion under an ancient tree, making cultivation seals with her hands. Wisps of pale white energy seeped out from the air and then continuously poured into her body.

Not far away, Lin Yuan leaned against an ancient tree, gently flipping through the ancient book in his hand, using his soul power to block out the noise around Qing Lin. At the same time, he was sensing his surroundings to prevent anything from disturbing Qing Lin's breakthrough process. The opportunity to break through the bottleneck in the late stage of Dou Qi is very rare.

Suddenly, Lin Yuan turned his head to the northwest, and saw a second-level black-striped leopard walking towards this side a few hundred meters away. Lin Yuan's eyes shone, and an invisible soul wave spread to the northwest. After the black-striped leopard touched this soul wave, it jumped up suddenly in shock, as if it saw an extremely terrifying scene in front of it, and ran away at a very fast speed in the opposite direction.

Lin Yuan retracted his gaze, with a bit more satisfaction in his eyes. The research on using soul power to simulate the three-flower pupil of the green snake to create illusions has finally achieved some results, but it is still useless. It can only be used when the soul power is very different. At present, it can basically not be used against enemies in battles of the same level. In comparison, the research on means to deal with illusions can be said to be quite fruitful.

During this month, Lin Yuan did not practice fighting spirit, but instead summarized his experiences in many battles in the Monster Mountain Range, calmed his somewhat impetuous mind, guided Qing Lin in his practice, improved his own fighting skills, studied the application of soul power, illusions and anti-illusions. Although there was no improvement in his cultivation, he gained a lot in other aspects.

"Time, time, what I lack most is time."

Feeling the change in the aura ahead, Lin Yuan looked at Qing Lin and nodded slightly, "It looks like a breakthrough is imminent."

On the cushion, as the fighting spirit continued to flow in, the mysterious green energy in Qinglin's body was also constantly generated, nourishing Qinglin's flesh. As the last wisp of fighting spirit flowed into Qinglin's body, her face radiated a glow like that of a beautiful jade, and her aura became completely stabilized.

The ninth level of fighting spirit is accomplished.

"Young Master, Young Master, I have broken through to the ninth level of fighting spirit." After opening his eyes, Qing Lin trotted to Lin Yuan and said excitedly.

"Well, our Qing'er is really excellent and will be able to become a fighter soon." Touching Qinglin's little head with his hand, Lin Yuan's evaluation of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils increased by one level.

It takes ordinary people years to break through the eighth and ninth stages of Dou Qi, but Qinglin only took less than a month to break through each stage, and her foundation was very solid. After the awakening of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils, the energy that was constantly generated in her body has been constantly nourishing Qinglin's body, laying a very solid foundation for her.

"hey-hey!"

"Today's training ends here. Young Master, I will take you to a nice place in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. The scenery there is very beautiful. Your sister Xiao Yixian is also there. I will cook for you today and make you a delicious meal."

"Really? That's great. I can see Sister Xiao Yixian again."

Qinglin was somewhat happy. They met when Xiao Yixian came to visit their home a month ago. After meeting a few times afterwards, they hit it off immediately. Xiao Yixian was very fond of Qinglin, who looked fragile, and taught her a lot of dressing skills. Qinglin, on the other hand, admired Xiao Yixian, a beautiful, friendly, intelligent and mature older sister. In her eyes, Xiao Yixian was simply the embodiment of a perfect woman.

"By the way, this is for you. It's a return gift for this robe. I like this robe made by Qing'er very much." Lin Yuan took out a carefully selected bracelet and handed it to Qinglin. The workmanship was very delicate, and there was a small bell on it, which would make a pleasant sound when shaken.

Qing Lin took the bracelet and looked at the well-fitting green robe on Lin Yuan. She couldn't help but smile silly. This robe was sewn for Lin Yuan by herself when she was not practicing.

"Thank you, sir." I couldn't tell if he was talking about the bracelet or the robe.

"Let's go." As he said that, Lin Yuan walked towards the direction of the Monster Mountain Range.

"But, sir, isn't this place very far from the Monster Mountain Range? Can't we just fly over there?" Qing Lin was a little confused. Lin Yuan looked into the distance and sighed softly, "Let's take a walk first and go over later. Give your Little Doctor Fairy some time. She must be having a hard time today!"

Deep in the basin of the Warcraft Mountains, there is a valley that is completely isolated from the outside world. The sky is covered with thick fog, making it extremely hidden. The only way for outsiders to enter this place is by flying.

The valley is full of energy and a variety of precious medicinal herbs grow there. The aroma of medicine floats in the air, making it like a paradise.

At this time, Xiao Yixian was sitting on a lawn in the valley, with the Seven-Colored Poison Sutra spread out between her knees and a small jade bottle filled with purple-red liquid in her hand. Xiao Yixian looked at the jade bottle in her hand with a dazed look. This was a bottle of poison made according to the Seven-Colored Poison Sutra, and it was the key that could allow her to unlock the evil poison body.

At this moment, her body's instinct was calling on her to drink the liquid in front of her, but she was still struggling in her heart. Once she drank this bottle of liquid, there would be no turning back.

Xiao Yixiang recalled what had happened during this period, the daily trivialities, Mr. Yao's flattery and intentions towards her, the young leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's coveting of her, etc. She, who used to be able to handle things patiently and tactfully, has gradually become impatient.

Ever since she knew that she had a poisonous body, her mentality had changed unconsciously. Even if she forced herself to live according to her original rhythm, she was always questioning whether she was wasting her time. Especially when she knew that Qinglin, who seemed so weak in her eyes, also had a special physique and was making great progress in her cultivation, this inner questioning became even more serious.

The incident half a month ago made her realize how fragile ordinary days without power are. If it weren't for Lin Yuan's intervention, she didn't know what situation she would be in now.

She gradually realized one thing, that is, she was destined to have no chance of an ordinary life because she was beautiful but unwilling to be a vase for others to play with. Now, deep in her heart, she longed for the demeanor of a strong man that Lin Yuan had shown in front of her.

Ever since she learned that she had a poisonous body, whether it was due to physical or psychological effects, Xiao Yixiang now felt that when she saw poison, it was a tempting delicacy.

"Is this what Lin Yuan said, 'With a sharp blade in hand, the desire to kill arises'? From the moment I knew I was carrying the evil poison body, I have already embarked on a path of no return."

"Since there is no turning back, let's face it bravely. Compared with the predecessors recorded in the Poison Scripture, at least I still have a friend, right?"

"Just as Lin Yuan said, there are countless strange people and things on this continent, and the solution to the evil poison body may not exist."

Countless complicated emotions finally turned into determination. Xiao Yixian made up her mind, opened the bottle and drank the purple-red liquid in the bottle in one gulp. As the poison slowly took effect, Xiao Yixian passed out and fell to the ground. A strange power slowly awakened in Xiao Yixian's body, and the colorful hidden lines in her lower abdomen also emitted light and began to grow slowly.

The evil poisonous body has awakened.
