Fights Break Sphere: Rock King's Leisurely Journey into the Mortal World

Chapter 16 Disaster Poison Body
Zhongli searched the vast "treasure trove of knowledge" in his mind, searching for bits of information related to the Evil Poison Body. After a moment's contemplation, he nodded slightly, as if realizing something.

There was an unconcealable light of joy in Xiao Yixiang's eyes. She had not experienced such pure happiness for a long time.

"Big Brother, I don't even know your name yet." Little Medical Fairy stood up cheerfully, wearing her milky white socks, and walked lightly towards Zhongli. "Also, Big Brother, how on earth did you find this place?"

The Little Medical Fairy slowly approached Zhongli, her right hand hanging naturally behind her back, silently gathering emerald green poisonous fighting spirit.

Zhongli saw every subtle movement of the Little Doctor Fairy, but he didn't become alarmed. After all, for a girl alone in a foreign land, facing a stranger with unknown intentions, it was wise to be so vigilant.

More importantly, Xiao Yixian had only just reached the ninth stage of Dou Qi. To Zhongli, she was nothing more than an ant trying to shake a tree. He didn't even need to adopt a defensive posture; even if he was unconscious, Xiao Yixian's poisonous Dou Qi wouldn't be able to penetrate his rock-hard frame.

"This little girl is truly quirky," Zhong Li pondered to himself, his lips curling up unconsciously in a faint smile. After a brief pause, he slowly spoke, "My name is Zhong Li, and I'm a guest official at the Xiao Mansion in Wutan City. I'm here because of the summons from your blue monster friend outside your house."

"Xiao Lan? You said it was Xiao Lan who asked you to come? Could it be that you can understand the language of Warcraft?" Xiao Yixiang asked with a little surprise.

"I can't understand the language of magical beasts, but I can analyze their current emotions from their cries. That night, I was wandering the Ghost Forest, and it was the desperate roar of Xiaolan that you mentioned that inspired me to come here."

"Is it really so?" Xiao Yixian leaned closer, her pure and innocent face fully revealed before his eyes. But it wasn't just her, Zhongli also knew it well. The poisonous fighting spirit smoke bomb that had quietly gathered behind Xiao Yixian was now almost fully formed.

Zhongli flicked his finger lightly, and the smoke bomb behind Xiao Yixian that was about to take shape exploded instantly. However, an invisible barrier quietly emerged, isolating it firmly behind Xiao Yixian, and not allowing any smoke to drift between the two of them.

When Xiao Yixiang sensed the out-of-control poisonous fighting spirit behind her, her heart suddenly tightened and her forehead was instantly covered with fine cold sweat.

"If Miss Xiao Yixian still has doubts, I will leave. I have never had any intention of doing anything bad to the girl. This meeting was accidental, and rescuing the girl was also out of my own conscience. I originally wanted to witness the scene of the blue eagle's life ending with a heart-wrenching roar, but I never expected that it was actually expressing sorrow for a friend in trouble." Zhongli said calmly.

She was acutely aware of Zhongli's formidable strength. For a young girl like her, barely edging into the ranks of a mere fighter, he needed no pretense. With such immense power, he didn't even need to wait until now, in this quiet, undisturbed canyon. Having purged his system of toxins last night, he was fully capable of doing whatever he pleased.

After finally confirming that Zhongli was a truly honorable man, Xiao Yixian breathed a sigh of relief, her tense nerves finally relaxing. Standing firmly on the bed, her two milky white socks tucked tightly together, Xiao Yixian bowed and said, "I hope you'll forgive me, Brother Zhongli. I'm an orphan, helpless and destitute. I've been living alone for years. How could I possibly survive without some sense of safety?"

Zhongli smiled softly, not feeling any resentment towards Xiao Yixian's behavior. In his opinion, Xiao Yixian's behavior was just a normal reaction. Moreover, she had just mentioned that she was alone and helpless, without a father or a mother. In such a helpless situation, safety awareness naturally became extremely important.

However, what really made Zhongli feel a little happy was when the Little Medical Fairy called him "Big Brother." Zhongli hadn't heard this word "Brother" for over three thousand years, and when he first heard the Little Medical Fairy call him that, his thoughts drifted for a moment.

The Little Medical Immortal slowly raised her head, a solemn expression now etched across her once lively face. "Big Brother, please tell me how to resolve the Evil Poison Body. This is extremely important to me. I've been tormented by it since I was young. I don't know how many innocent lives it has claimed. Even... my mother died in an outbreak of the Evil Poison Body when I was young."

Speaking of this, Xiao Yixian's voice gradually became choked with sobs. Her heart seemed to be filled with countless painful memories. Every time she recalled them, it was like a sharp knife, cutting off a piece of flesh from Xiao Yixian's heart.

Through the Little Medical Fairy's clear, penetrating eyes, Zhongli could clearly perceive her as a kindhearted child of noble character. However, fate, like a merciless and cruel playwright, had played a heinous trick on her. This trick had inexplicably burdened her with the heavy sin of murder. Her beloved friends and family, afflicted by her inherent, cursed constitution, constantly faced the terrifying threat of being snatched away by her own hands. The fear of the unknown, like a shadow, hung over her life, leaving one filled with sorrow and helplessness.

Zhongli responded calmly, as if answering a simple yet adorable child's question: "Well, I know of a poison pill recipe that will allow you to completely control your poisonous body, somewhere between the levels of Dou Wang and Dou Sheng. However, with your current strength, you are unable to endure the pain it will cause. In fact, once the poison pill is formed, your soul may be annihilated and you may be possessed by it."

"Is it really because my strength is too weak?" The little fairy doctor slowly lowered her head, her long eyelashes quietly covering the corners of her eyes.

Indeed, the realm of Dou Sheng... haha, that kind of extraordinary realm, who can easily aspire to it? Therefore, this poison pill method can be said to be a way to save Guan'ernan's poisonous body for a lifetime.

However, reaching the Dou Wang realm... for Xiao Yixian at this moment, it seemed like a distant dream. While her cultivation talent was not inferior, it was by no means top-tier. Relying on the unique cultivation advantages of her afflicted poisonous body, and strictly controlling her intake of poisonous herbs, she had barely reached the ninth level of Dou Qi.

Although she was only one step away from becoming a fighter, how should she choose the cultivation method after the breakthrough? Although she was able to purchase yellow-level cultivation methods after years of accumulation, due to the constraints of her evil poison body, she could only cultivate a few.

What's more, can the yellow-level skills really allow her to cultivate to the realm of Dou Wang before the full outbreak of the evil poison body?
