Chapter 38 Revisiting Wutan City
Although Xiao Zheng had made the decision to go to Wutan City, it was already very late, so he could set off tomorrow.
He then returned to the inn with Little Fairy Doctor to rest.
After dinner, Xiao Zheng and Little Fairy Doctor went back to their respective rooms.
That night, Xiao Zheng lay in bed, his mind racing with plans for returning to Wutan City.
Now he possesses a battle puppet capable of unleashing the power of a nine-star Dou Wang.
This puppet, crafted from the physical body of the patriarch of the Extreme Yin Sect, can only fight for a quarter of an hour. However, as a puppet, it can employ a reckless fighting style and is capable of putting up a fight even against a low-level Dou Huang.
With such trump cards in hand, those so-called native strongmen in Wutan City are nothing to fear.
However, the shortcomings of the battle puppet are also obvious. First, its battery life is poor, and second, even with his current strength, the speed at which he can recharge the battle puppet is ridiculously slow.
Therefore, Xiao Zheng really didn't want to use this trump card unless it was a matter of life and death.
However, if he were to consider the premise of "not easily using the fighting puppets," then he would need to make more preparations for his trip to Wutan City.
Xiao Zheng hasn't acquired any higher-level cultivation techniques yet, so he doesn't need to consider improving himself for the time being. However, he can consider helping Little Fairy Doctor improve her strength.
The Little Fairy Doctor cultivates the Yin Fire Poison Scripture, which allows her to rapidly improve her cultivation level by consuming poisonous substances.
Xiao Zheng decided to go to the Alchemist Guild tomorrow to find Frank and see if he had any recipes for high-level poisons, or high-level poisons themselves.
As long as Little Fairy Doctor's strength can be raised to a higher level, surpassing those Great Battle Masters in Wutan City, this trip will be worry-free.
The next day.
Xiao Zheng took Little Fairy Doctor to the Alchemist Guild to find Frank.
Frank was somewhat surprised by Xiao Zheng's sudden arrival, but he was secretly delighted, thinking that Xiao Zheng must have encountered trouble to come looking for him so quickly.
If he can help Xiao Zheng solve his troubles, their friendship will deepen considerably.
Frank asked curiously, "What business does young friend Xiao have with me?"
Xiao Zheng got straight to the point and stated his purpose directly.
Frank looked surprised: "You need a poison prescription, or poison itself? May I ask what young friend Xiao intends to do with these?"
Although he really wanted to help Xiao Zheng, if the latter intended to do something immoral, then he would rather not.
Before Xiao Zheng arrived, he had guessed that Frank might ask why, so he had already thought it through and said with a smile, "I plan to go to the Tagor Desert for training soon and want to find some highly poisonous medicine formulas or poison pills for self-defense."
"The Tagor Desert?"
Frank paused for a moment, then understood. "That place is indeed quite dangerous, with wild beasts everywhere and sand bandits roaming freely."
"And since your cultivation level is not high enough, it is reasonable for you to prepare some poisons for self-defense."
He pondered for a moment, then turned around and took down two yellowed parchment scrolls from the bookshelf, and took out several jade bottles from his storage ring, handing them to Xiao Zheng.
Frank said, "These two are prescriptions for poison pills. One is a grade three 'Bone-Corroding Pill,' and the other is a grade four 'Intestinal-Piercing Poison.'"
"However, you haven't reached the Great Dou Master level yet, so you can't refine pills of grade three or higher."
"I'll give you some of my refined products. These Bone-Corroding Pills and Intestinal-Piercing Poisons should be enough for you to protect yourself in the desert."
Xiao Zheng was overjoyed that the trip went so smoothly. He cupped his hands in thanks to Frank, saying, "Thank you for your generous help, Chairman. I will remember this favor."
Frank waved his hand: "It's nothing, nothing to worry about."
After Xiao Zheng thanked her again, he turned and left with Little Fairy Doctor.
As soon as they stepped out of the guild hall, Little Fairy Doctor curiously approached them: "Brother Xiao Zheng, you've prepared so much poison, are you going to give it to me to eat?"
"What else did you think?"
Xiao Zheng turned around and smiled, handing her the jade bottle containing poison pills. "These third and fourth grade poison pills contain pure poison power, which can help you quickly improve your cultivation level."
Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor's eyes immediately lit up.
She desperately wanted to become stronger so that she could survive better in this dangerous world and protect her brother Xiao Zheng.
"Brother Xiao Zheng, thank you for going to so much trouble!"
Little Fairy Doctor accepted the jade bottle and sincerely thanked her.
"We're good friends, it's too formal to say such things."
Xiao Zheng laughed and said, "Moreover, the higher your cultivation level, the safer I am. It's a win-win situation."
Having obtained the poison pill, he and Little Fairy Doctor did not return to the inn, but instead set off directly for Wutan City.
Xiao Zheng chose to walk there.
Blackrock City and Utan City are not too far apart; it takes about ten days to walk between them.
This period of time is just right for Little Fairy Doctor to refine the poison pill.
After leaving Blackrock City, the two traveled during the day and rested at random open places at night.
Little Fairy Doctor started by consuming the third-grade Bone-Corroding Pill.
When she first took it, she would convulse and turn blue due to the strong toxicity.
However, under the operation of the Yin Fire Poison Scripture, the violent poison power was quickly transformed into pure energy and integrated into her battle qi.
Compared to Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Zheng was also busy.
However, he currently has no cultivation techniques to practice, and he has already mastered the Absorption Palm technique to its peak, so the only thing he does every day is to recharge the fighting puppet.
On the evening of the third day, Little Fairy Doctor took the first fourth-grade intestinal poison pill.
This poison pill was several times more potent than the Bone-Corroding Pill. As soon as she swallowed it, she spat out a mouthful of black blood, and her skin turned a strange bluish-black.
She quickly endured the excruciating pain, as if her internal organs were being burned, and exerted all her strength to activate the Yin Fire Poison Meridian.
The fighting spirit within his dantian spun wildly, like a black hole, constantly devouring the poison within his body.
The Little Fairy Doctor suffered in agony all night long.
It wasn't until dawn that the poison in her body was completely neutralized, and a powerful aura erupted from her body, causing the surrounding air to distort slightly.
"Brother Xiao Zheng, I've broken through to the three-star Great Dou Master level!"
Little Fairy Doctor opened her eyes, her eyes filled with surprise.
Looking at Little Fairy Doctor, Xiao Zheng, who had a cheat code, actually felt a little envious of her. She had jumped two minor realms in three days... such speed was probably something only Little Fairy Doctor could achieve.
Over the next ten days or so, Little Fairy Doctor continued to consume poison pills, and her cultivation level soared like a rocket.
From three-star Grandmaster to four-star, five-star, then six-star, seven-star...
On the morning of the eighteenth day, when Little Fairy Doctor took the last pill of the Intestinal Poison, an aura far more terrifying than before suddenly erupted.
"boom!"
After a soft popping sound, Little Fairy Doctor's lips curled into a slight smile: "Eight-Star Grand Dou Master!"
Xiao Zheng stood to the side, sensing the surging battle qi within her, and nodded in satisfaction.
With the strength of an eight-star Grand Dou Master, she is already considered a top expert in Wutan City. Combined with the Ten Thousand Poison Palm, even Xiao Zhan, the current patriarch of the Xiao family, would be no match for her.
At this moment, the outline of a massive city slowly emerged on the horizon ahead—it was Wutan City.
Xiao Zheng and Little Fairy Doctor soon arrived at the city gate of Wutan City.
Looking at the city ahead, Xiao Zheng felt a surge of emotion.
Looking back a year and a half ago, he was forced to leave the Xiao family because he had offended most of the Xiao family members.
Now, when he returned to Wutan City, he was a nine-star Dou Shi, possessing a strange fire and a Dou puppet, and accompanied by Xiao Yi Xian, an eight-star Da Dou Shi.
It can be said that unless Xiao Zheng has extremely good luck and encounters a powerful figure from the Yunlan Sect or the Soul Palace, he is no longer afraid of any challenge.
Xiao Zheng took Little Fairy Doctor's hand and walked openly into Youwutan City!
