After activating the Woeful Poison Body, Xiao Yi Xian could be described as carrying poison throughout her body. Maintaining such a state would definitely risk harming those around her in the future.
If news got out, her identity as someone with the Woeful Poison Body would be completely exposed. By that time, it's likely that Yun Lan Sect wouldn't tolerate her presence any longer.
In this situation, Xiao Yi Xian thought of the Venomous Poison Elixir Condensing Technique her teacher had taught her. The Venomous Poison Elixir Condensing Technique allowed the toxins within the body to be condensed into a poisonous core.
This core contained a potent poisonous force that could be controlled at will. If Xiao Yi Xian could successfully condense a poisonous core within her body, she wouldn't accidentally harm others in the future.
With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Yi Xian recalled the details of the Venomous Poison Elixir Condensing Technique and returned to her seated position on the bed.
Her jade-like hand formed a series of hand seals, and the Dou Qi within her body began to surge wildly. As she executed the hand seals, the black gas in the room gradually converged toward Xiao Yi Xian and finally entered her body, disappearing without a trace.
After a moment, Xiao Yi Xian slowly opened her eyes, revealing a hint of disappointment in her beautiful gaze.
"I wanted to condense a poisonous pellet, but the amount of poisonous force attracted is far from enough." After a brief contemplation, Xiao Yi Xian got off the bed and left the room.
"Teacher!"
A while later, outside Gu He's room, Xiao Yi Xian's voice gently rang out. "Come in!"
Upon hearing the cheerful voice of Gu He, Xiao Yi Xian gently pushed open the door and walked in.
"How do you feel?" Seeing that the complexion of Xiao Yi Xian had returned to normal, a smile appeared on Gu He's face as he inquired.
"Well, I feel pretty good."
Upon hearing this, a look of joy appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's delicate face as she approached Gu He, showing off, "Teacher, I
have already advanced to the Three-Star Dou Practitioner level."
"As expected of the Woeful Poison Body, truly remarkable." Gu He had long been aware of Little Fairy Doctor's breakthrough, so he simply smiled and sighed softly.
Hearing Gu He's praise, a sense of delight filled Little Fairy Doctor's heart. She then looked at Gu He and asked, "Teacher, do you still have any toxic herbs?"
"I had them prepared for you a while ago." Gu He replied with a smile, then took out a package from his storage ring and handed it to Xiao Yi Xian.
"My disciple, you must remember that even when swallowing poisonous herbs, it's best not to do it too frequently. Rapid advancement in strength can lead to unstable foundations.
It's important to spend some time consolidating your realm." Gu He's expression turned serious as he spoke. "Disciple understands." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian nodded and then left the room slowly.
...
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, ten days had passed. In a room within the separate courtyard, Xiao Yi Xian was seated cross-legged on the bed. The room was filled with a dense black mist.

Xiao Yi Xian's delicate hands formed intricate seals in the air. With each seal she formed, it was as if the black mist in the room responded to a certain call, rushing towards her and then being absorbed completely.
After a moment, the previously thick black mist in the room had been entirely absorbed. In the centre of the vortex of Dou Qi within Xiao Yi Xian's body, a black pill was suspended.
Thread by thread, the black mist converged into the black pill through the vortex of Dou Qi. As the final wisp of black mist merged into the black pill, Xiao Yi Xian, who had been manipulating the process, gradually ceased her actions.
She then opened her eyes. With a faint mental sensation, Xiao Yi Xian understood her current realm. Nine-Star Dou Practitioner!
In a short span of time, she had progressed from a Three-Star Dou Practitioner to a Nine-Star Dou Practitioner. Such cultivation speed, if known to the world, would undoubtedly be astonishing.
With an excited expression on her face, Xiao Yi Xian rose from the bed and then headed towards Gu He's room.
...
Meanwhile, inside Gu He's room,
"Teacher, your disciple has successfully broken through to a Six-Star Dou Practitioner," Liu Ling exclaimed with excitement as he looked at Gu He before him.
"Yes, you indeed broke through. Well done," Gu He replied with a smile as he observed Liu Ling, who had a mask covering half of his
face. Coincidentally, half a month had also passed.
Now that Liu Ling had successfully achieved his breakthrough, it was fitting for Gu He to reward him accordingly. "Hehe..." Upon hearing Gu He's praise, a pleased smile appeared on Liu Ling's face. He then looked at Gu He with eager anticipation.
"Teacher, you said that if I could break through, then..." "Look at your behavior..." Gu He playfully chided before motioning with a thought, producing the Crimson Snake Cauldron from his storage ring.
"Here, the Crimson Snake Cauldron will belong to you from now on," Gu He declared with a grand gesture. Seeing the Crimson Snake Cauldron before him, Liu Ling's eyes lit up, and he excitedly exclaimed, "Disciple thanks Teacher!"
Gu He smiled faintly, not responding outwardly, though a glimmer of anticipation flashed in his eyes. What treasures might he receive? The long-awaited system prompt then resounded within Gu He's mind.
[Ding, detection of host granting senior disciple Liu Ling the Crimson Snake Cauldron. Congratulations to the host for triggering a ten-thousandfold return and obtaining the Fourth Rank on the Heavenly Cauldron List, the Dragon Soul Cauldron!]
[The Dragon Soul Cauldron has been deposited into the system's storage space. Please be sure to check.]
Hearing the system's prompt, Gu He was momentarily taken aback. The Fourth Rank on the Heavenly Cauldron List?
The Dragon Soul Cauldron? Gu He recalled that in the original work, Yao Chen seemed to have mentioned the Heavenly Cauldron List.
Rumour had it that within the realm of alchemy, alongside the Flame Ranking, there existed a Heavenly Cauldron List. As the name suggested, the list recorded extraordinarily flawless and outstanding alchemical cauldrons.
Within the Heavenly Cauldron List were thirteen cauldrons, each possessing an enchanting allure that attracted countless lchemists.
Gu He remembered that Yao Chen possessed a cauldron from the Heavenly Cauldron List named the Black Demon Cauldron, ranking eighth on the list.
And now, the Dragon Soul Cauldron that he had obtained ranked fourth on the Heavenly Cauldron List! Observing Liu Ling immersed in the joy of receiving the Crimson Snake Cauldron, Gu He's consciousness shifted, directly entering the system space.
Upon entering the system space, Gu He's consciousness immediately fell upon a golden-colored alchemical cauldron, its size comparable to a tabletop.
The golden cauldron was robust in size, exuding a steady aura throughout its body. Etched onto the surface of the golden cauldron were lifelike depictions of several dragon-shaped magical beasts.
Upon closer inspection, the patterns of these dragon-shaped magical beasts appeared almost lifelike. Subtly, Gu He seemed to hear a faint dragon's roar emanating from within the golden cauldron.
"Remarkable!" Gazing at the extraordinary golden cauldron before him, Gu He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. In comparison, the Crimson Snake Cauldron seemed rather insignificant.
An alchemical cauldron was one of the most crucial possessions of an alchemist. A high-quality cauldron could significantly increase the success rate of alchemical refinement.
"This is the Dragon Soul Cauldron, truly befitting its fourth rank on the Heavenly Cauldron List, with an extraordinary presence." As Gu He beheld the Dragon Soul Cauldron before him, excitement flickered in his eyes.
