BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 23: Dou Practitioner

Xiao Yi Xian's cultivation had reached the ninth stage of Dou Disciple. As long as one condensed the Dou Qi Cyclone within their body, they could become a true Dou Practitioner.

However, condensing the Dou Qi Cyclone had a significant failure rate. After a failure, one's ninth stage Dou Qi would regress to the eighth stage.

Unfortunate individuals might need to condense it over ten times before succeeding, wasting precious training time and hindering their progress.

The purpose of the Qi Gathering Powder was to ensure a hundred percent success in condensing the Dou Qi Cyclone for a ninth stage
Dou Qi practitioner!

To ensure that Xiao Yi Xian could achieve a hundred percent success, Gu He decided to craft a Qi Gathering Powder for her.

"Qi Gathering Powder!" Upon hearing Gu He's words, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes lit up.

She had inherited Gu He's memories as a sixth-rank alchemist, so she naturally recognized this pill.

It was a fourth-grade pill, a challenge even for a fourth-rank alchemist to concoct. Without even asking, her teacher was voluntarily making it for her.

Thinking this, Xiao Yi Xian watched as Gu He started to craft the Qi Gathering Powder, feeling content. Having a sixth-rank alchemist teacher was wonderful.

Teacher, with your care, I won't disappoint you!

Xiao Yi Xian observed every movement and step that Gu He took in crafting the medicine. She combined Gu He's alchemical technique with the memories in her mind.

After inheriting the memories of a ninth-rank alchemist and breaking through to the Dou Emperor realm, her soul power had greatly
improved.

At this moment, Gu He was capable of refining seventh-grade pills. A mere Qi Gathering Powder was a piece of cake for Gu He. An hour later, a thumb-sized, faintly purple, glossy pill that emitted a subtle radiance spun in the cauldron, appearing before them.

"Is it successful?" Looking at the pill in the cauldron, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes sparkled with excitement.

This was her first time witnessing the alchemy process up close. So, this is how pills are refined?

Watching Gu He's skilled movements and combining them with her alchemical knowledge, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but feel a surge of curiosity.

As the pill took shape, a faint green medicinal fragrance wafted out of the window, causing a slight ripple of energy.

Even on the backs of flying beasts, there were alchemists present. Sensing this green medicinal fragrance, some on the flying beasts
were astonished and rushed outside to see the drifting fragrance.

"It's actually a colored medicinal fragrance!" "Somebody is refining a fourth-grade pill!"

"I didn't expect there to be a fourth-rank alchemist on here!" People discussed with excitement, staring at the room where Gu He
was.

After all, only when a pill reached the fourth grade could it produce a colored medicinal fragrance. This indicated that the person refining the pill was at least a fourth-rank alchemist.

Realizing this, people looked at the room where Gu He was, showing expressions of awe. In the room, Gu He had already bottled the Qi Gathering Powder he had refined.

"Disciple, during this time, consume this Qi Gathering Powder. Strive to condense the Dou Qi Cyclone before we arrive at Yunlan
Sect," Gu He handed the vial to Xiao Yi Xian with a faint smile.

"Yes, thank you, Teacher," Xiao Yi Xian took the vial with a grateful smile on her face. "Consume it quickly." Gu He smiled and said, "I'll watch over you."

"Alright." Xiao Yi Xian nodded coquettishly and poured out the green pill. Looking at the glossy Qi Gathering Powder, Xiao Yi Xian smiled sweetly.

She sniffed the delightful fragrance again, licked her lips, and without hesitation, popped the pill into her mouth.

As the Qi Gathering Powder entered her mouth, a faint chill spread within. After a moment, a surge of warm and pure energy rushed
into her body.

Xiao Yi Xian's delicate body trembled. With a composed face, she quickly formed hand seals to absorb the Dou Qi. Her breathing gradually steadied as the faint Dou Qi within her responded and entwined with the potent medicinal power.

A frenzied process of assimilation began. In the small room, the calm air suddenly rippled. Threads of faint white Dou Qi seeped from the air, continuously entering Xiao Yi Xian's body.

Biting her lip, the clash of energies within her meridians caused bursts of painful sensations. Within her, the Dou Qi enveloped
clusters of green and pure energy.

Through the intense assimilation, the green energy transformed into faint white Dou Qi, and with this reinforcement, the scale of Dou Qi within Xiao Yi Xian's body visibly expanded at a rapid pace.

The pure medicinal power was continuously assimilated, yet it seemed as if it were an endless stream. Each time the Dou Qi
assimilated a batch of medicinal power, an even larger green energy surged forth.

Through the ongoing assimilation within her body and the continuous infusion of external Dou Qi, Xiao Yi Xian's internal Dou
Qi had gradually filled most of her meridians.

The assimilation continued and as the momentum of the potent medicinal power weakened, Xiao Yi Xian, engrossed in the rapid
growth of power suddenly discovered that the Dou Qi within her body had expanded to a point where it couldn't increase any further.

"Boom!" After a moment, a soft muffled sound quietly echoed within Xiao Yi Xian's body...

With the sound of the muffled explosion, the resistance that had been exhausting Xiao Yi Xian vanished into thin air.

Breathing a sigh of relief, she slumped down, her entire body feeling drained, and her chest heaving violently. Subsequently, feeling the Dou Qi Cyclone successfully formed within her, Xiao Yi Xian turned excitedly to the nearby Gu He.

"Teacher, I did it!" Gu He had been watching the process of Xiao Yi Xian's breakthrough. Hearing her words, he nodded with a smile, "Yes, I witnessed it."

"Disciple, becoming a Dou Practitioner is only the first step toward becoming strong. The road ahead is still long," Gu He advised with a smile.

"Yes, Teacher, I understand," Xiao Yi Xian nodded playfully, her face radiating excitement. After her initial excitement passed, Xiao Yi Xian diligently sat in the room to stabilize her newfound level.

Meanwhile, Gu He's consciousness entered the system space. Within the system space, Gu He gazed at the suspended black scroll in the void and silently commanded, "System, extract the Scroll of Myriad Poisons!"

As his words fell, a surge of information instantly flowed into his mind. Gu He didn't take it lightly, concentrating his mind and carefully absorbing the information.
