When Yao Lao absorbed a strange fire back then, he had truly died once. Although he didn't know he had died, the fear hidden in the depths of his Soul made it impossible for Yao Lao to let go of his fear of absorbing strange fire.
"Hmm!" Chen Yang nodded and turned to look at Xiao Yi Xian.
"I'm ready!" Xiao Yi Xian took a deep breath, looking at Chen Yang with a faint smile.
She had waited too long, far too long, for this day.
Ever since the day she found out she was a Calamity Poison Body, she had been worried about whether her poison body would explode and hurt innocent people, or even hurt the people she cared about.
Although Chen Yang had said that he was not afraid of the poison body and that even intimate contact with her was fine, as long as this poison body was not resolved for a day, she dared not completely relax, nor did she dare to recklessly increase her strength.
Along the way, she had seen too many brilliant women appear around Chen Yang—
Ya Fei, who had average cultivation talent but possessed extremely strong management experience and business acumen.
Qing Lin, who was young but whose talent was no worse than her own.
Medusa, the Queen of the Snake-People Tribe, who was stunningly beautiful and possessed the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python Bloodline.
And Yun Yun, who had brought an entire Cloud Mist Sect as a dowry.
Among these four women, none were inferior to her in terms of looks; in fact, Queen Medusa far surpassed her, leaving her in the dust.
She wasn't jealous; she simply felt that if she wanted to stay by Chen Yang's side and be able to help him, she needed stronger power.
"I will definitely succeed, I definitely will!" Xiao Yi Xian silently encouraged herself in her heart, her eyes gradually changing from tenderness to determination.
"Don't be nervous. On this continent, not even Xiao Yan is as compatible with the Netherworld Poison Flame as you are. Relax a little. Next, just follow the steps we discussed earlier and absorb it normally!" Chen Yang reached out and brushed Xiao Yi Xian's smooth black hair, speaking softly.
"Hmm!" Xiao Yi Xian nodded heavily, and her previously tense mood relaxed.
"Brother Yang, I will go a bit further away with Teacher to wait for you. Just call us if you need anything!" Xiao Yan had absorbed strange fire before and knew that all clothing would be burned away during the process of absorbing strange fire, so he bowed and chose to move away.
"Take Qing Lin with you!" Chen Yang was afraid that when Xiao Yi Xian absorbed the strange fire later, there might be some setting where "that" was required to alleviate the aftereffects, so he told Xiao Yan to take Qing Lin as well.
"Got it, I will take good care of Sister-in-law Qing Lin!" Xiao Yan nodded with a smile, then turned and flew further away with Yao Lao, who was carrying a somewhat reluctant Qing Lin.
In place, Chen Yang looked at Xiao Yi Xian and pulled off the Volcanic Stone Flame from his body.
"What are you doing? There is poison everywhere here, you..." Xiao Yi Xian was frightened when she saw this and hurriedly used her poison control methods to remove the poison gas around Chen Yang.
"No need!" Chen Yang reached out and grabbed Xiao Yi Xian's slender hand, then took a deep breath of poisonous gas and said with a smile, "My Physique is called the Nine Yang Divine Body, immune to all poisons. Let alone the poison gas emitted by these mere poisonous insects and plants, even if your Calamity Poison Body were to reach Major Achievement, it couldn't poison me!"
Xiao Yi Xian stared blankly at Chen Yang. A few seconds later, tears welled up in her eyes, and she hugged Chen Yang, whispering in his arms: "Husband, it turns out we were a match made in heaven long ago..."
She possessed the Calamity Poison Body, a Physique that harmed others, while Chen Yang was immune to all poisons. So, even if one day she truly couldn't control herself and poisoned everyone on this Fighting Qi Continent to death, Chen Yang would not be harmed.
"Alright, hurry up and start absorbing. The environment here is excellent; for you, it's like returning home. Perhaps with this opportunity, you can directly promote to a Dou Huang!" Chen Yang reached out and patted Xiao Yi Xian's back, speaking softly.
"Okay!" Xiao Yi Xian nodded, released Chen Yang, wiped away her tears, then sat cross-legged, took out the blood lotus pill and ice heart pill, and took them together. At the same time, she also placed a seventh-grade antidote pill under her tongue.
As the blood lotus pill was ingested, a thick layer of blood scabs appeared all over Xiao Yi Xian's body. Seeing this, Chen Yang lifted his hand and sent the Origin fire seed of the Netherworld Poison Flame in front of her. Xiao Yi Xian reached out and grabbed it. After gazing affectionately at Chen Yang, she resolutely swallowed it into her abdomen.
"Hiss..." Even after taking the ice heart pill, the moment the Netherworld Poison Flame Origin fire seed entered her body, Xiao Yi Xian let out a muffled groan.
Chen Yang's Soul Power enveloped Xiao Yi Xian's body, his eyes fixed on her without blinking.
The young girl kept her eyes tightly closed. The terrifying purple flames constantly burned the blood scabs formed by the blood lotus pill. The scabs were gradually dissolving bit by bit. The effect of the ice heart pill could only protect Xiao Yi Xian's body from being burned by the high temperature, but external objects could not resist the high temperature of the strange fire.
Time passed extremely slowly in Chen Yang's eyes. The blood scabs formed by the blood lotus pill, along with the white dress on Xiao Yi Xian, were burned to ashes by the purple Netherworld Poison Flame, exposing the young girl's snow-white body to the air.
Chen Yang had built a wall of earth around them early on, so only Chen Yang and the Sky Swallowing Python wrapped in Volcanic Stone Flame in his sleeve could see all the wonderful things happening here.
A full two and a half hours passed before the purple flames steaming around Xiao Yi Xian slowly dissipated. The expression on the young girl's face was no longer heavy, but the relaxation of having survived a disaster.
Seeing this, the spirit absorption Chen Yang had prepared in his hand turned into a stream of light and struck into Xiao Yi Xian's body.
The steaming purple flames seemed to have found a home and began to surge toward the spirit absorption.
However, it was not over yet.
"Xian'er, circulate the 'Heavenly Poison Nether Art,' interweave your poisonous gas with the Netherworld Poison Flame, and completely master your Calamity Poison Body!" Chen Yang's voice was like a bell, appearing in her ear when Xiao Yi Xian was somewhat relaxed.
"Hmm!" Xiao Yi Xian closed her eyes tightly and nodded, circulating the "Heavenly Poison Nether Art."
Immediately, the iconic colored lines at the lower abdomen of the Calamity Poison Body began to disperse, heading toward all directions of her body. However, before these colored lines could attack her heart, they were carried by the Netherworld Poison Flame along Xiao Yi Xian's Meridians and rushed all the way into the Origin of the Netherworld Poison Flame, all turning into nourishment for the Netherworld Poison Flame.
When all the colored lines on Xiao Yi Xian's body disappeared, the Netherworld Poison Flame suddenly emitted terrifying poison-attribute energy, heading straight for Xiao Yi Xian's Dantian.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Chen Yang saw that Xiao Yi Xian's cultivation at this moment began to climb like a rocket. In the blink of an eye, she went from a One-Star Dou Wang to a Nine-Star Dou Wang, and it was still increasing.
"Since that's the case, this sea of flowers will come in handy!" Chen Yang smiled slightly, waved his hand, and a dragon claw protruded from the earth wall. More than fifty acres of poisonous grass and flowers closest to him were instantly refined by the Volcanic Stone Flame and returned to his palm.
Watching Xiao Yi Xian still having the momentum to push forward, Chen Yang lifted his hand and struck this mass of purple poison essence onto Xiao Yi Xian. The poison liquid enveloped Xiao Yi Xian's entire body, quickly turning into a purple cocoon.
Another two hours passed. The purple cocoon suddenly began to make clicking sounds. As the aura of a Dou Huang expert rushed into the sky from the center of the earth wall, the purple cocoon burst open instantly, revealing a beautiful woman with a snow-white body and long snow-white hair inside.
"This... Xiao Yi Xian's limited edition silver-haired skin has actually gone live?" Chen Yang stared blankly at the silver-haired Xiao Yi Xian who was closing her eyes and adjusting her breath, his breathing slightly heavy.
For over a year, Xiao Yi Xian had been by his side with her long, straight black hair, but what he liked most was the limited edition skin of the Poison Lady.
It was just that Xiao Yi Xian's hair turning white overnight was because she had caused the death of a kind couple and a village after leaving the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Chen Yang naturally wouldn't let Xiao Yi Xian be sad enough to turn her hair white, so this skin could only exist in the original work.
But today, after Xiao Yi Xian absorbed the Netherworld Poison Flame and advanced to Dou Huang, her hair actually turned silver-white. This was simply... too wonderful!
"Wuu... Husband... why are you, looking at me like that?"
After her cultivation was simply stabilized, Xiao Yi Xian opened her eyes and wanted to share the good news with Chen Yang, but she found that he was looking at her like a big pervert. Although she liked this kind of look, but in this environment...
"Xian'er, you are now so beautiful that you make me suffocate..." Chen Yang stepped forward and hugged Xiao Yi Xian. Regardless of whether there were aftereffects from Xiao Yi Xian absorbing the strange fire, let's just assume there were!
"Wuu..."
