The remaining poison is completely gone, revealing exquisite tenderness!

Residual Poison Cleared, Exquisite Tenderness!

After a day and a night.

Inside the cave, the two were disheveled, and the air was filled with ambiguity.

Xue Linglong curled up in Lin Yuan's arms. After this detox session that felt like a grueling face-to-face cultivation, seventy to eighty percent of the toxins in her body had been cleared. Her complexion was much rosier, though her eyes still held a hint of haziness.

Lin Yuan teased, "It seems my unique detoxification therapy is remarkably effective. Your face is as peach-blossom pink as ever, and you have even more charm than before you were poisoned."

Xue Linglong was both shy and angry; this guy never had a serious word to say!

She turned her head away, showing him the back of her head, but the tips of her ears were red enough to drip blood.

Lin Yuan chuckled and stopped teasing her. He raised his arm and grabbed the Storage Pouch of those two unlucky souls.

He turned the pouch opening downward and gave it a light shake.

With a clattering sound, a pile of miscellaneous items suddenly appeared on the ground.

These two must not have been in the valley for long; there weren't many Spirit Materials, and even the Spirit Stone were sparse. Clearly, entering such a dangerous place, no one would carry all their wealth with them.

The most numerous items were a bunch of bottles and jars, containing various wriggling venomous insects and foul-smelling poisonous powders.

Lin Yuan searched for a long time, his eyes suddenly narrowing as he picked up a booklet made from unknown animal hide from the pile of debris.

"True Explanation of Ten Thousand Poisons".

Lin Yuan flipped open the booklet, his eyes flashing with brilliance.

It not only recorded the characteristics and refining methods of various poisonous substances but also provided a Pill Formula at the end called "Ten Thousand Poison Dissolving Calamity Pill".

The concept of this pill was bizarre; it used various poisons as medicine, triggering their mutually generating and restraining properties to fight poison with poison, and using the most filthy to overcome the most evil.

Theoretically, as long as enough varieties of poisonous substances were added, the resulting Medicinal Pill was claimed to be able to cure all poisons in the world.

"This is quite a good thing."

Lin Yuan had a plan in mind.

Demon Falling Valley was filled with poisonous miasma and hidden dangers everywhere. Having this pill on hand was equivalent to having an extra life.

He did not hesitate and immediately took out his own Pill Furnace.

"Whoosh!"

A mass of dim blue flames spewed from his mouth, instantly heating the Pill Furnace until it turned red-hot.

It was none other than the Earth Core Nether Fire!

Immediately, he took the bottles and jars he had sorted out from the two's Storage Pouch and, following the sovereign-minister-assistant-guide method from the Pill Formula, tossed them into the furnace one by one.

In an instant, the five-colored poisonous mist inside the Pill Furnace surged violently, clashing wildly with the dim blue Earth Core Nether Fire, emitting a sizzling corrosive sound.

A bizarre odor mixed with fishy, foul, sweet, and cloying scents permeated the air. Even with magical power protecting the body, it made one's Divine Soul want to retch.

An hour slowly passed.

The strange smell inside the cave was so thick it was almost tangible.

Xue Linglong was already fully dressed, leaning against the cave entrance from afar, watching this scene with shock in her beautiful eyes.

In her view, this was hardly Alchemy; it was clearly playing with fire and burning oneself!

Just then, Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he let out a low shout.

"Condense!"

He performed a hand seal, and the Earth Core Nether Fire suddenly surged, forcibly blending all the violent and chaotic toxicity inside the furnace into one!

"Open!"

The furnace lid shot into the sky, and nine streaks of black light flew out, hovering in mid-air.

A unique medicinal fragrance instantly swept away all the stench in the cave, making one feel refreshed upon smelling it.

Among these nine Medicinal Pill, there were actually five High Grade and four supreme grade!

Xue Linglong's residual poison had not been completely cleared, so Lin Yuan handed her one High Grade Ten Thousand Poison Dissolving Calamity Pill.

"This is for subsequent maintenance, to consolidate your foundation and nourish your essence. You expended a great deal last night and need to properly replenish yourself."

Xue Linglong's pretty face flushed red. She felt helpless at Lin Yuan's shameless behavior, yet there was a hint of sinking into it. Finally, she took the Medicinal Pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

The Medicinal Pill melted upon entering her mouth, and a cool sensation flowed through her limbs and bones; the residual poison in her body dissipated in an instant.

After recuperating for another half a day, Lin Yuan steered the light feather boat, carrying Xue Linglong, and sailed out of the cave silently.

The boat did not fly too high, skimming almost against the gray, ruined ground.

According to the route map given by Qing Tan, the next destination was a secret location deeper in the Demon Falling Valley.

The map indicated that many rare Spiritual Plant grew there, and there was a high probability of netherworld grass appearing.

The deeper they went, the denser the surrounding poisonous miasma became, and consuming Medium Grade or Low Grade anti-miasma pills was already useless.

Visibility dropped sharply, and the detection range of his Divine Sense was repeatedly compressed, finally remaining at less than twenty zhang.

The route map also specifically warned that the further inside one went, the easier it was to encounter a type of demonic insect called Bone-Eroding Insect.

These insects traveled in swarms, often numbering in the thousands or tens of thousands.

Not only were they highly venomous, but their carapaces were harder than refined iron, and ordinary water or fire techniques could hardly harm them in the slightest.

When encountering these demonic insects, there were only two paths: one was death, and the other was running.

Precisely because of this, very few Cultivator dared to venture deep into this place.

Risk and opportunity coexist.

The light feather boat traveled through the thick fog. Along the way, the number of scattered corpses on the ground increased significantly.

In just half an hour, they saw seven or eight corpses.

Some were pierced by sharp blades, while others were charred black all over, clearly having died in battles between Cultivator.

Even worse, some entire bodies were shriveled and withered, as if all their essence and Qi had been sucked dry, their state of death miserable.

Finally, a round little hillside revealed its blurry silhouette amidst the thick poisonous miasma.

The hillside was bare, grayish-brown all over, and from afar, it looked like a giant steamed bun turned upside down on the ground.

If it weren't for the clear mark on the route map, anyone passing by would probably ignore it directly.

The light feather boat landed slowly.

Lin Yuan and Xue Linglong got off the boat and began to search carefully on the hillside.

More than an hour later, Xue Linglong let out a low cry from behind an inconspicuous pile of rocks.

Lin Yuan quickly rushed over.

Behind the rocks, there was actually a bowl-shaped depression hidden away.

Inside the depression, the poisonous miasma was much thinner, and on a patch of black spiritual soil, more than twenty Spiritual Plant of various shapes were growing.

Every single one was vibrant with Spiritual Qi, and several of them had a medicinal age of over a hundred years.

Lin Yuan's gaze swept over them quickly, his heart jumping suddenly.

One of the Spiritual Plant made Lin Yuan's eyes light up.

However, the next moment, the light in his eyes dimmed, replaced by an undisguisable disappointment.

That stalk of netherworld grass grew alone on the edge of the spiritual soil. It was pitch black, but it only had two leaves the size of fingernails, and its stem was so thin and weak it seemed as if it would break at a touch.

This was clearly a seedling that had only grown for three or five years.

Its medicinal power was weak; it could not be used to refine a foundation establishment pill at all.

"Damn it, got excited for nothing! Why is this piece of junk so small!"

"And according to the map provided by Qing Tan, the probability of finding netherworld grass on the subsequent route will be greatly reduced."

"This is going to be troublesome!" Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Xue Linglong did not notice the subtle change in Lin Yuan's expression. She took out a jade dagger, collected all the mature Spiritual Plant, and handed them to Lin Yuan.

After doing this, she said, "The harvest is not bad. Shall we go?"

Lin Yuan took the Spirit Medicine. His eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he abruptly made a gesture for silence to Xue Linglong.

Then, pulling Xue Linglong, his figure flickered, and he dived behind some nearby bushes that were a meter and a half high, quickly concealing their aura.

Xue Linglong looked confused and wanted to ask a question.

But she saw three streaks of Escape Light moving quietly from far to near, slowly flying over.

The person in the lead was barefoot with snow-white little feet, wearing a string of delicate silver bells around her ankles, though they made not a sound as she moved.

The woman was dressed in attire with a very exotic flair, with complex and exquisite silver headwear, revealing a section of fair neck.

An indigo short shirt outlined her slender waist, and on the lower body, she wore a layered pleated long skirt, with weird venomous insect patterns embroidered on the hem.
