People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 173 Bodhi Seeds, Earth Core Beads

The temperature inside the altar rose higher and higher, and the Calamity Poison Body seemed to sense the threat and began to resist instinctively.

In an instant, the gray mist spread out from Little Fairy Doctor's body like a tide, constantly eroding her life force.

Under the corrosive influence of these calamity-inducing poisons, Little Fairy Doctor's originally beautiful face instantly lost its color, becoming stiff and cold as frost. Only her tightly furrowed brows and violently trembling eyelashes showed that she was resisting the backlash from the calamity-inducing poison.

Seeing this, Cao Ying dared not hesitate and raised her hand, unleashing a torrent of emerald green flames.

This is a strange fire formed by the fusion of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the Sea Core Flame, and the Xuanhuang Flame.

Although none of the three types of strange flames are ranked very high, they still perfectly meet the criteria.

Looking at the Little Fairy Doctor shrouded in poisonous mist, Cao Ying's throat bobbed. Suppressing her unease, she pushed her palm forward, and the emerald green flames suddenly expanded, enveloping the Little Fairy Doctor entirely.

Tsk tsk tsk!

As soon as the flames enveloped Little Fairy Doctor, the dense gray poisonous gas on her body surface immediately reacted as if it had encountered its nemesis, bursting out with a violent hissing sound, then retreating with lightning speed, and finally all shrinking into Little Fairy Doctor's body!

Different Fire, this is the answer in the current version, it has a natural restraint on Calamity Poison Gas.

"laugh!"

As the poison gas entered her body, Little Fairy Doctor's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened. Her pupils, which were originally slightly grayish-purple, turned completely into pure gray at this moment, devoid of any rationality. An aura of death emanated from her body, and with a movement, she was about to rush out of this altar!
Chen Xiao, who was watching from the sidelines, was prepared. The moment the body moved, he suddenly stood up, his palm piercing through the blazing emerald flames, and pressed down hard on Little Fairy Doctor's fragrant shoulder!
"Yinger, continue!"

Cao Ying nodded emphatically, her hand seals changed instantly, and she controlled the strange fire to transform into countless tiny flames, which directly pierced through Little Fairy Doctor's skin and rushed into her body, frantically chasing after the countless gray poisonous gases!
Under the natural restraint of the strange fire, the gray poisonous gas permeating Little Fairy Doctor's body began to retreat rapidly. Under Cao Ying's conscious control, all the poisonous gas was converging towards Little Fairy Doctor's lower abdomen.

Finally, the emerald green flames condensed here, transforming into a ring of fire that trapped all the calamity and poisonous gas within.

Having completed this step, Cao Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

The strange fire suppressed the calamity poison gas more strongly than she had imagined, and this step of driving it away did not take her too much effort.

The vast poisonous gas, filled with the aura of death, all condensed in Little Fairy Doctor's lower abdomen. Upon closer inspection, it had become a vortex, each rotation radiating a suffocating pressure, as if connecting to the entrance to the Netherworld!
Faced with such terrifying poisonous gas, even a powerful Dou Zun would not dare to touch it easily. However, the flame formed by the fusion of three different flames was able to hold it firmly, preventing it from spreading even slightly.

The principles of mutual generation and restraint in this universe are truly astounding.

"The poisonous gas has accumulated; extract it with the Demon Core and transform it with the Bodhi."

Cao Ying had already memorized the specific method of condensing the poison pill. Feeling the poisonous gas gathered together, she immediately took a light breath, grabbed the crystal core of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, and slapped it on Little Fairy Doctor's lower abdomen!

When the crystal core touched Little Fairy Doctor's skin, it instantly emitted a deep, mysterious light, slowly seeping into her body as if it were a living thing.

Under their watchful eyes, the demonic core strangely pierced through the skin and entered the swirling gray vortex of poisonous gas, settling firmly at its core, seemingly poised to become the central hub controlling this power of death.

Witnessing the demon core successfully enter her body, Cao Ying's expression grew increasingly solemn.

Her gaze was fixed on the lustrous Bodhi incarnation saliva in the jade box beside her. Next was the final step she would guide to condense it!
At the same time, this Bodhi Transformation Saliva is also the key to resolving the crisis of the poisonous body and turning the tide!
Cao Ying lightly hooked her fingertip, and an invisible suction force pulled the lustrous Bodhi seed from the jade box into her palm.

Her eyes flashed like lightning, and a wisp of emerald green flame separated from Little Fairy Doctor's body, tightly enveloping the Bodhi incarnation like a cage.

In that instant, the Bodhi incarnation was stimulated and thrashed and twisted wildly in the flames, like a trapped beast trying to break free of its restraints.

Cao Ying frowned slightly, her delicate hands clenched tightly, and the emerald green flames suddenly surged, the temperature soaring to its extreme, causing the surrounding air to distort and deform.

Under the scorching heat of the flames that consumed everything, Bodhi's incarnation, though it fought valiantly, was ultimately no match for the power of the strange fire.

After only two or three minutes, the struggle of the Bodhi Transformation Saliva finally subsided, and a hazy glow appeared on its surface, as if it had shed its arrogance and was waiting to exert its miraculous effect of turning the tide.

Upon seeing this, Cao Ying felt instantly relieved.

At least, she didn't make any mistakes in any of the steps she could take.

Whether or not the poison pill can be condensed afterward depends entirely on Little Fairy Doctor!

"what?"

Just as Cao Ying was about to pull the Bodhi Transformation Saliva out of the flames, she was surprised to find that a large amount of emerald green dust was being refined out from within the Bodhi Transformation Saliva.

The dust slowly fell, but it did not completely detach from the Bodhi seed saliva. Instead, it continued to condense at the bottom of the seed, and in the blink of an eye, it formed a green bead no larger than a thumb.

The moment the emerald green bead took shape, the Bodhi Transformation Saliva trembled slightly, as if laying an egg, and squeezed the bead out of its body.

Filled with curiosity, Cao Ying caught it. Without having time to examine it closely, she handed it to Chen Xiao and then pulled the Bodhi Transformation Saliva from the flames, sticking it onto Little Fairy Doctor's smooth and flat abdomen.

When the refined Bodhi essence entered the dantian, a vibrant green, brimming with life force, burst forth like a new bud breaking through the soil.

This green hue spread like wildfire within Little Fairy Doctor's body, and within a few breaths it was like a jade torrent, completely enveloping her!

Fine, emerald-green liquid seeped into Little Fairy Doctor's skin, like countless lively spirits swimming throughout her body. Nourished by this spiritual substance, Little Fairy Doctor's meridians, which had been riddled with holes by the poisonous gas, began to regain their luster. Her atrophied muscles stretched out as if greeted by spring rain, and her originally dull vitality surged at a visible speed. The new life force was more vigorous than before, as if every cell was cheering for a new life!

Seeing this, Chen Xiao and Cao Ying both breathed a sigh of relief.

Cao Ying bent two fingers together and quickly tapped them on Little Fairy Doctor's lower abdomen. As her fingers moved, the emerald green fire ring surrounding the gray vortex split open, and streams of emerald green liquid rushed into the gap, finally rushing into the gray poisonous gas vortex with a slight gurgling sound.

The moment the jade-green Bodhi-like body touched the gray mist, it was as if a boulder had been thrown into a deep pool, and the entire poisonous miasma of death suddenly boiled over!
The thick, inky gray mist surged wildly, stirring up gusts of foul wind. But with each surge, strands of life, like silver needles, pierced through, crushing and neutralizing the deathly aura within. This caused wisps of emerald green veins to begin to emerge in the originally suffocating poisonous miasma, intertwining and growing like withered trees coming back to life.

"Xian'er, circulate your battle qi, compress the poison gas, and condense it into a poison pill!"

Cao Ying had done all she could. Chen Xiao uttered a soft shout, which, imbued with soul power, boomed like thunder and penetrated deep into Little Fairy Doctor's soul.

Reminded by Chen Xiao, Little Fairy Doctor, who had almost completely lost her rationality, suddenly regained some clarity. She immediately circulated her battle qi and, following the poison pill method she had memorized, began to gradually compress the vast vortex of poisonous gas!

Driven by Little Fairy Doctor, the vortex of poisonous gas gradually converged toward the demonic core at its center.

Under the impact of the poisonous gas, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast's magic core also began to release violent energy in an attempt to resist the erosion of the poisonous gas. The two forces collided violently, producing bursts of chaotic clashes reminiscent of the beginning of the world.

"Oh!"

A muffled thud distorted space, and the energy released by the demon core rapidly dissipated under the strangulation of the calamity gas, being completely swallowed up like a candle flame in a raging storm.

Immediately, a strange gray light spread along the patterns of the magic core, melting its originally angular shape into a perfectly round sphere, the luster flowing on its surface resembling the gaze of an abyss.

The vortex of poisonous gas transformed into a winch that seemed to never stop, forcibly compressing massive amounts of toxic gas into the gray core.

As more battle qi surged in like rivers flowing into the sea, this demonic core, which condensed the power of life and death, began to grow in reverse. Its volume slowly but steadily contracted, and each contraction was accompanied by a spatial tremor, as if it were nurturing an extremely powerful poison pill capable of overturning the heavens and the earth!
Sensing the orderly scene within Little Fairy Doctor's body, Cao Ying withdrew the strange fire, a relaxed smile appearing on her pretty face.

She knew perfectly well that Chen Xiao had given her so many benefits in order to achieve this.

At this moment, she had finally fulfilled Chen Xiao's expectations and lived up to his trust.

With her tense mind finally relaxed, Cao Ying's aura began to drop rapidly at a visible speed. In the blink of an eye, she had no strength left, and she became an ordinary person.

The side effects of the elixir began to appear, causing her face to turn slightly pale, but the smile on her face was one of genuine ease.

"Chen Xiao, I didn't disappoint you, did I?"

Chen Xiao shook his head slightly, stepped forward to help her up, and let her lean against him for support.

"Xian'er and I have always believed that you can do it, both in the past, now, and in the future."

In fact, the real difficulty in condensing the poison pill for Little Fairy Doctor has always been the preparation process.

Three kinds of strange flames, Bodhi Transformation Saliva, and a seventh-order Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast Demon Core...

Each of these conditions is difficult to meet.

If one is not a chosen one, or someone who has read the script like him, even with the strength of a Dou Zun, it would be difficult to meet the conditions. Of course, Cao Ying, who carries the three different flames, is still indispensable. Now that the settlement has been reached, Chen Xiao naturally has to say nice things.

Moreover, this is not an exaggeration.

This is indeed a trustworthy asset.

Hearing Chen Xiao's words, Cao Ying's smile widened, the corners of her eyes curving upwards as if dipped in honey, and even her eyebrows were tinged with a touch of brightness.

The feeling of being recognized is always so pleasant.

With a smile, Cao Ying forced herself to walk up to Little Fairy Doctor despite her weakness.

At this moment, there was no more poison gas emanating from Little Fairy Doctor's body. Her skin, which had been somewhat pale from the poison gas of the Calamity, was now glowing with a healthy rosy luster.

Her gaze swept over Xiao Yixian's slightly exposed abdomen, then she turned back to Chen Xiao with a mocking, half-smiling expression, revealing her true nature as a vixen.

After a long while, Cao Ying took out a black dress and gently draped it over Little Fairy Doctor's delicate body.

However, because the black dress was not loose, it could not block out all the lights at all, and instead made her look like she was holding a pipa and half-concealing her face.

For a normal man, the temptation of such a scene is even greater than before…

Chen Xiao strongly suspected that the demoness was doing it on purpose, so he quickly stepped forward, took out a large black robe from his storage ring, and completely covered Little Fairy Doctor's body.

"Xian'er is in a critical situation right now, don't disturb her."

Chen Xiao pulled the demoness aside and went to the location of the earth's eye.

Looking inward from here, all one can see is endless darkness within the eye of the earth. Where this eye of the earth leads, probably no one but its creator knows.

Noticing Chen Xiao's actions, Cao Ying then remembered that one of the things he had promised Ye Zhong was to solve the problem of the Yang Huo Ancient Altar.

Do you know why your yang fire isn't producing?

Chen Xiao nodded slightly, not hiding anything, and said, "The reason why the Yang Fire Ancient Altar has not produced Yang Fire in recent years is not because the energy has been exhausted. On the contrary, it is precisely because the fire attribute energy here is too concentrated, and it has even formed a substantial liquid inside the earth's eye, blocking the eye. It only needs to be cleared a little, and Yang Fire will naturally be produced in the future."

"You don't want to go down and clear the blockage, do you? It's dangerous, and there's not enough room for you."

"No need to bother."

Chen Xiao shook his head slightly and immediately sat down cross-legged.

The next moment, a surge of immense spiritual power erupted from between his brows and entered the earth through the eye of the ground.

Chen Xiao controlled his soul power and carefully probed downwards into the dark hole in the ground. After an unknown amount of time, a burning sensation came from within his soul.

At the same time, Chen Xiao also noticed a red light appearing in his soul vision.

The red light was emitted by a viscous, blood-red liquid of unknown origin. This liquid was round, like large blood spheres, piled together, completely blocking the earth's eye.

Within this viscous, blood-red liquid, floats a perfectly round, blood-red bead about the size of a thumb, its light shining brightest!
"The Earth Core Pearl!"

Seeing what he wanted, Chen Xiao was overjoyed.

The Earth Core Pearl is also known as the Earth Core Fire Pearl.

This object is a special energy bead formed from the essence of energy deep within the earth, condensed over countless years.

This bead contains extremely powerful energy, and it is said that it is used when refining some eighth-grade or even ninth-grade pills!

These mysterious objects, known as Earth Core Pearls, are usually hidden deep within the earth and are extremely difficult to find. Occasionally, during volcanic eruptions, Earth Core Pearls hidden deep underground may be ejected.

Most of the Earth Core Pearls commonly found on the mainland are obtained in this way.

This item has many uses and is extremely valuable. Chen Xiao offered to help the Ye family solve the problem of the Yang Fire Ancient Altar precisely because he knew that a core pearl had been nurtured within it.

Otherwise, given the Ye family's current situation, Ye Zhong would most likely not refuse Chen Xiao's request to borrow the Yang Fire Ancient Altar if he were simply shown a clear path.

Looking at the Earth Core Pearl, Chen Xiao did not rush to put it away.

The fire-attribute energy within this eye of the earth was extremely concentrated, causing his soul to feel waves of burning pain. One could imagine that the temperature within that pile of blood-red viscous liquid must have been even higher.

However, under Chen Xiao's observation, he noticed that the red light emitted by this viscous liquid flickered, being most intense when it was bright and relatively more comfortable when it was dim.

Having grasped this pattern, Chen Xiao quietly adapted to the rhythm of the viscous liquid shimmering with light.

After two or three minutes, once he was certain that the viscous liquid would not change any further, Chen Xiao decisively made his move the instant its light dimmed. His soul power shot out like lightning, rushing into the blood-red liquid containing the Earth Core Pearl. Enduring the burning pain it caused, he dashed towards the surface exit without looking back.

"Oh!"

Only now did the crimson liquid seem to be stimulated, transforming into a torrent of blood that rushed toward the Earth's Core Pearl.

Unfortunately, being one step too slow leads to being one step too slow. Chen Xiao had already taken the initiative to withdraw his soul power, and the Earth Core Pearl had fallen into his hand.

Seeing the rapidly surging crimson liquid, Cao Ying used all her strength to push the stone tablet into the ground, blocking it completely.

In the last instant before the Earth's Eye was blocked, both of them saw that without the Earth's Core Pearl, the viscous liquid, as if without its backbone, could no longer maintain its spherical shape and quickly disintegrated.

Without their obstruction, the Yanghuo Ancient Altar will soon return to its former state.

"Phew... Why is this broken stone tablet so heavy? Is this the Earth Core Fire Pearl?"

Cao Ying slumped to the ground, disregarding her image, and took a few deep breaths before fixing her gaze on the bead in Chen Xiao's hand.

For a qualified alchemist, recognizing treasures and identifying objects is just the basic skill.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly and handed the Earth Core Pearl directly to her.

"Keep it. The Earth Core Pearl can attract and gather fire-attribute energy from the surrounding area. If I wear it, it's like a fire-attribute person wearing an ice spirit jade, which is more harmful than beneficial."

This is yet another thing that can't be used in reverse versions.

Cao Ying didn't stand on ceremony and accepted it directly.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony. This thing was indeed quite useful before I reached the eighth rank. Once I reach the eighth rank, I'll use it to refine an eighth-rank pill for you."

Chen Xiao nodded, not paying any attention to the matter.

Compared to the Earth Core Pearl, the Bodhi Seeds that were previously refined from the Bodhi Transformation Saliva were the real treasures!

"boom!"

Just as the two finished their conversation, a deafening roar suddenly came from the direction of the Ye family's main hall.

"A Dou Zong level expert is fighting?" Cao Ying's expression changed slightly.

Such a huge commotion must mean that the people fighting must be at the Dou Zong level!
She wasn't worried about her safety. Even if she couldn't use any of her strength, with just her identities as the demoness of the Cao family and the personal disciple of Xuan Kongzi, few people in the Pill Domain would dare to touch her.

Moreover, Chen Xiao and others were by her side.

She was just worried that Little Fairy Doctor was at a crucial moment in condensing the poison pill, and if she were disturbed...

It is highly likely that all our efforts will be in vain!
"Go out and see!"
