Chapter 28: Poison Pill Condensing Technique

The next morning,

"Teacher, it's time for breakfast." A soft voice sounded, and Gu He slowly opened his eyes, pausing his cultivation.

"This girl woke up so early and even prepared breakfast. Worthwhile to have taken her as a disciple."

A smile appeared at the corner of Gu He's mouth as he got out of bed and opened the door.

Creak! The door opened, revealing a little head holding a food container. "Teacher, I've made porridge. Have a bowl," Xiao Yi Xian walked in, sweetly smiling.

"Good disciple, did she not sleep well last night? Why does she have dark circles?" Gu He looked at Xiao Yi Xian's complexion, asking with a light chuckle.

At his words, Xiao Yi Xian's expression slightly changed, but she quickly regained her smile, saying, "Disciple was just too excited and couldn't fall asleep for a while."

"What's there to be excited about?" Gu He shook his head. The two of them sat down to have their porridge, but Gu He noticed that Xiao Yi Xian seemed absent-minded, lost in thought.

"This girl must have something on her mind." Suddenly, Gu He thought of the Woeful Poison Body Scripture. She probably knows that she possesses the Woeful Poison Body and is worried about it.

Seeing a hint of concern in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes, Gu He understood. However, he didn't point it out immediately and continued to eat his porridge unhurriedly.

"Disciple, finish your porridge quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold." Gu He urged Xiao Yi Xian. "Yes, Teacher." Xiao Yi Xian snapped out of her thoughts, forcing a smile and hiding her disappointment.

After a while, they finished their porridge, and Xiao Yi Xian got up to clean up the bowls.

"Wait, little girl, put them aside for now. Your teacher has something to discuss with you." Gu He wiped his mouth and suddenly spoke.

Hearing Gu He's words, Xiao Yi Xian's expression slightly changed, a trace of panic flashing in her eyes. She softly replied, "Yes, Teacher."

"Is there something on your mind? Do you mind sharing it with your teacher?" Gu He's voice was gentle. "Teacher... I..." Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian looked at Gu He, struggling to speak.

"It seems you already know." Seeing her expression, Gu He became more certain of his guess. He shook his head and said, "It's just the Woeful Poison Body. There's no need to be afraid."

"Teacher, you... you already knew?" As Gu He revealed the secret she had kept in her heart, Xiao Yi Xian widened her eyes in surprise, looking at Gu He.

"Yes." Gu He nodded gently, his tone soothing. "Don't worry. Do whatever you want to do. I won't interfere with your decisions."

"But... if I activate the Woeful Poison Body, can I still stay by your side, Teacher?" Xiao Yi Xian voiced her worries softly.

She had already read the description of the Woeful Poison Body in the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, so she naturally understood the consequences of activating it.

If she truly activated the Woeful Poison Body, she might become a pariah that everyone would shun. At that time, would she be able to remain in Yun Lan Sect, by her teacher's side?

What she feared even more was that her teacher might expel her from the sect. "Why not?"

Gu He chuckled, saying, "When I accepted you as my disciple, I already knew about your Woeful Poison Body."

"If I dared to take you as my disciple, I naturally have a solution." Gu He said confidently.

"Really?" Xiao Yi Xian's eyes instantly lit up at his words, her face full of surprise. "When have I ever lied to you?" Gu He raised an eyebrow, saying calmly.

"No, Teacher has never lied to me." With a solution in sight for her Woeful Poison Body, Xiao Yi Xian's internal worry vanished, and her lively and cheerful demeanor returned.

"Hehe, come here. Your teacher will teach you the solution right now." Gu He motioned for Xiao Yi Xian to come closer, smiling. "Yes."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian approached, full of anticipation, and stood in front of Gu He. Then, Gu He used the Divine Illumination technique, pointing a finger at Xiao Yi Xian's forehead.

In an instant, Xiao Yi Xian felt a surge of information entering her mind. Not daring to be careless, Xiao Yi Xian focused all her attention on receiving this information.

After a moment, Gu withdrew his finger and stopped the transmission technique. The information he had just transmitted to Xiao Yi Xian was a secret technique recorded in the Myriad Poison Scripture.

It was called the "Technique of Devouring Poison and Condensing Elixir." This technique was somewhat similar to the poison pill technique mentioned by Yao Lao in the original story.

However, in terms of effectiveness, the Technique of Devouring Poison and Condensing Elixir far surpassed the poison pill technique.

Gu He speculated that the Myriad Poison Scripture was likely written by a poison master who possessed the Woeful Poison Body. Because the technique of devouring poison and condensing elixir described within seemed to be tailored specifically for the Woeful Poison Body.

This technique could perfectly solve all the drawbacks caused by activating the Woeful Poison Body. After cultivating this Technique of Devouring Poison and Condensing Elixir, one could control the potent toxins within their body at will, preventing harm to others even upon contact.

After a while, Xiao Yi Xian had absorbed the information in her mind and slowly opened her eyes. "The Technique of Devouring Poison and Condensing Elixir..."

"To think that such a profound secret technique exists in this world!"

"It's as if it was created specifically for me..." Recalling the contents in her mind, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes were filled with amazement.

Recalling the contents in her mind, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes were filled with amazement. With the technique of the Venomous Condensing Pill, she no longer needed to worry about the drawbacks of activating the Woeful Poison Body.

Moreover, she could live like a normal person without enduring the peculiar gazes that other poison masters faced. "No more worries now, right?" Gu He said with a cheerful tone, looking at the radiant smile on Xiao Yi Xian's face.

"Yes, teacher, thank you," Xiao Yi Xian said sincerely, deeply moved. In this moment, she felt extremely fortunate that fate had led her to her teacher.

Otherwise, if she had activated the Calamity Venom Body in the future, she wouldn't have known how to face the world. "Yes, focus on cultivating in the future. The Woeful Poison Body is a gift from heaven. Don't feel pressured. You know, others envy you for possessing it."

Gu He smiled lightly and teased. Gu He's words weren't a joke. Those with the Woeful Poison Body constitution could become stronger without the need for prolonged Qi cultivation; they only needed to consume poisonous pills.

Their Woeful Poison Body would automatically convert the poison's potency into a unique toxic Qi through a mysterious method. The stronger the toxicity, the greater the benefits for their strength.

Who wouldn't envy such a constitution that allowed them

to become stronger just by consuming poison pills? Not to mention, the current Xiao Yi Xian had already learned how to overcome the drawbacks of the Woeful Poison Body

From now on, she could freely consume poison pills to become stronger. Thinking about this, Gu He felt a touch of envy. "Huh!"

At this moment, Gu He's expression changed, and his soul power instantly spread out before quickly retracting.

"Why has Yun Yun come? And with Nalan Yanran."

"Well, that's perfect. I also have something to discuss with her…"
