"There is, but there isn't a cure refined yet."
"Then what should we do? Should we just leave her be?"
"It's not entirely hopeless. The *Yongheng Daojing* you practice is a cultivation technique created by the Eternal Emperor. Legend has it that if cultivated to its extreme, one can even refine all things in this plane into spiritual energy."
"Let alone a mere Green Scaled Serpent's venom."
Xin Ci immediately followed Elder Han's advice, placing his hand on Liu Fuyao's wound and circulating the *Yongheng Daojing* to refine the serpent's venom.
Soon, Liu Fuyao's complexion returned to normal, her forehead was no longer burning, and her condition gradually improved.
The spiritual energy generated from refining the Green Scaled Serpent's venom fed back into Xin Ci himself, accompanied by two crisp bone sounds.
Xin Ci broke through two minor realms in one go, reaching Body Refining Ninth Level.
This Green Scaled Serpent truly was a peak Tier 3 demonic beast; refining even a wisp of its venom allowed him to break through two minor realms.
Although Liu Fuyao's serpent venom had been resolved, she still hadn't woken up. Xin Ci took this opportunity to check on the Green Scaled Serpent.
Upon reaching the Green Scaled Serpent, the demonic beast was already a mess.
Xin Ci used Liu Fuyao's weapon to cut open its abdomen. Inside, there was only flesh and blood, along with the mangled remains of other demonic beasts and humans.
It seemed this Green Scaled Serpent had consumed quite a lot.
"Huh, what's this..."
Xin Ci discovered something glowing and took it out, cleaning it.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a Sumeru Ring!
This might not be considered precious by Liu Fuyao, but for Xin Ci, it was one of the most needed items at the moment.
Fortunately, this Sumeru Ring had not been refined and had no soul energy residue.
Xin Ci attempted to inject soul energy into it. Inside was a thirty cubic meter space.
Within it lay a pile of luminous crystals, numbering tens of thousands.
Xin Ci guessed these were likely spirit stones, a cultivation resource used only by those above the Yellow Realm.
Most of these spirit stones were low-grade spirit stones, with fewer than a hundred mid-grade spirit stones among them.
In the Eternal Continent, one hundred low-grade spirit stones were equivalent to one mid-grade spirit stone.
Besides spirit stones, there was also a gray, tattered book and a page of black paper.
Xin Ci took both items out.
The black paper was entirely black, and Xin Ci couldn't discern its purpose, so he temporarily put it back.
The gray, tattered book had four large characters on its cover: "Cai Jue Wu Shi" (Five Styles of Judgment), a spiritual martial art.
However, it was a shame that this spiritual martial art required a matching chain weapon to be used.
Just as Xin Ci was about to continue flipping through it, the ground suddenly began to shake violently.
A large amount of falling rocks and fine sand poured down from above, likely caused by the earlier Thunder Blast Pearl.
This underground space could barely hold on and was about to collapse.
Xin Ci immediately put away the martial art and, without waiting for Liu Fuyao to wake up, scooped her up.
Moving swiftly, he fled the area at his fastest pace.
However, most of the passages were buried by debris, making it incredibly difficult to find a way out.
But the speed of the collapse didn't give him time to search slowly. His soul energy expanded greatly.
He desperately scanned for the nearest uncleared passage, and finally, Xin Ci found one.
Without any hesitation, he rushed in.
But this passage was also unstable, with rocks and sand still falling.
This disturbance woke Liu Fuyao from her unconsciousness.
As soon as she regained consciousness, she looked up and saw a stern, youthful face.
The memory of her poisoning and falling onto him flashed back into her mind. A blush appeared on her cheeks, feeling both angry and embarrassed.
She instinctively tried to struggle, but Xin Ci coldly warned her.
"If you don't want to die here, then don't move around!"
Although Liu Fuyao was somewhat displeased, she realized the underground passage was collapsing.
Her spiritual energy was depleted, and her injuries prevented her from moving. She could only rely on Xin Ci to get her out.
So, she wisely settled down.
The road behind them collapsed at an increasing speed, almost catching up to Xin Ci's heels.
Liu Fuyao was already starting to worry for him.
"Hey, can't you go any faster?!"
However, Xin Ci ignored her; he was already doing his best to escape.
His Eight Transformations of Movement even broke through to the Grand Completion realm in this critical moment, allowing him to traverse the countless oncoming rocks at a speed comparable to the Yellow Realm.
But it was ultimately futile. Xin Ci, at his current stage, was only in the Body Refining realm. This speed was already his limit.
The speed of the collapse behind him was ultimately faster than him. His rear foot already lost its grip.
Falling rocks in front continued to fill the gap, leaving only one opening through which he could pass.
Xin Ci felt a surge of helplessness.
"Is this how it ends..."
Liu Fuyao also felt despair. Perhaps she shouldn't have placed her hopes on a mere Body Refining realm youth.
However, as she looked up to take one last look at Xin Ci's face.
She noticed that Xin Ci's pupils had, at some unknown time, transformed into a beautiful and mysterious star wheel.
His realm also began to soar, breaking through directly from the Body Refining realm all the way to Half-step Profound Realm.
Liu Fuyao's bright eyes widened in astonishment: "What's going on with this guy? How did he suddenly break through to Half-step Profound Realm? Did he use some secret technique?!"
Little did she know that the second personality, Mu Qingqing, had forcefully taken over his body.
"Hold on tight, pretty sister."
Huh?
What's happening?
This guy was just indifferent a moment ago, how did he suddenly change his tune and start flirting with her?
Mu Qingqing immediately unleashed the Eight Transformations of Movement. Her movements were incredibly agile, and the oncoming debris didn't even touch Xin Ci's body.
Like a fleeting shadow, he passed through the gap that was about to be filled with rubble, temporarily escaping the danger of being buried.
But the situation was still critical because when Xin Ci was conscious, Mu Qingqing could only control his body for ten seconds.
Light appeared ahead. Just a little more, and they would reach the exit!
Six, five, four...
Mu Qingqing was racing against time, almost with her life on the line.
Three, two, one...
In the final second,
Mu Qingqing finally rushed out of the exit carrying Liu Fuyao and immediately switched back to the primary personality.
