Chapter 450 Another Pill
Ye Qing'an looked around and saw that apart from the fireflies, there was nothing else particularly noticeable.
After a moment's thought, Ye Qing'an walked along the line formed by the fireflies.
After walking for a short while, Ye Qing'an suddenly saw a white figure flash by in the dense forest beside them.
Its shape and appearance resembled... a white fox.
arctic fox.
Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips. If the white fur was the butler, and the butler was also Ye Qinghao's spirit beast, then the one that flashed by just now was most likely the butler.
He must have been sent by Ye Qinghao to check on the situation.
Is Ye Qinghao really that distrustful of her? Is he afraid she brought someone she shouldn't have?
If she wanted to deal with him, why would she need to bring anyone with her? She alone was enough.
After walking a while longer, Ye Qing'an saw a dark figure appear at the end of the line formed by the fireflies.
The figure had its back to her, but its shape and appearance were very familiar to her.
"Daddy."
Ye Qing'an took two steps forward and called out softly.
"Hmm." Ye Qinghao responded, turned his head, and scanned Ye Qing'an several times before getting straight to the point: "I heard that you have advanced to the Supreme Realm?"
Ye Qing'an nodded gently: "Yes, I don't know what happened either. I was sick, and the medicine that the army doctor brought was maliciously replaced with the Heavenly Spirit Pearl. After I took it, I began to experience the tribulation of inner demons. After the tribulation, I advanced to the Supreme Realm."
Ye Qinghao had spies in the camp, so he naturally had already heard about what happened today.
Although I had heard about it, I still felt that this matter was too unbelievable.
"Reach over here."
Ye Qing'an responded and extended her hand. Ye Qinghao carefully examined the spiritual energy within Ye Qing'an's body, his brows furrowing.
Ye Qing'an's spiritual power was extremely profound, and he was indeed a Supreme Being.
"Why would someone replace it with the Heavenly Spirit Pearl for you to take?"
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes: "Is someone trying to harm me? It is said that only those with a Supreme Body can upgrade to a Supreme by consuming the Heavenly Spirit Pearl. Those whose innate body is not Supreme will explode and die if they consume the Heavenly Spirit Pearl."
"Then why did you..."
Ye Qing'an shook her head: "I don't know either. I know very little about the Heavenly Spirit Pearl. I had no idea it was a Heavenly Spirit Pearl, so I accidentally ingested it. After I took it, I felt as if a lot of spiritual power suddenly appeared in my body, and that spiritual power was completely out of control, running rampant in my body. I felt like my whole body was about to explode, and then I suddenly fainted..."
"After I fainted, I entered the Illusionary Realm of Inner Demons. I thought I was dreaming until I passed the trial of the Inner Demons and realized that I was actually going through the Illusionary Realm of Inner Demons."
"I really just stumbled into becoming a Supreme by accident; I didn't even realize it myself."
Ye Qing'an gently bit her lip and looked up at Ye Qinghao: "Father, how did the rumor spread that non-Supreme beings would explode and die after consuming the Heavenly Spirit Pearl?"
“It’s not just a rumor. There are related records in ancient books. Then, a few years ago, Gu Duo…” Ye Qinghao’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant when he mentioned this name. He pursed his lips slightly before continuing, “After Gu Duo took the Heavenly Spirit Pearl and leveled up to the Supreme, someone also found a Heavenly Spirit Pearl after him.”
"At that time, he took out the Heavenly Spirit Pearl at a martial arts gathering and, ignoring everyone's advice, consumed it, claiming that he was about to become the next Supreme Being."
"But after he took the Heavenly Spirit Pearl, he started to go crazy. He was like a madman, hitting his head and chest as if he was suffering extreme pain all over his body. Then he suddenly exploded and died, and not a single piece of his flesh and bone could be found."
"It was a grand gathering of martial arts practitioners at the time, and many people witnessed what happened. This further confirms what was written in the ancient books. After that incident, no one dared to try it again."
Ye Qing'an's fingers, hidden in his sleeve, twitched slightly: "Then does Father know what kind of talent the person who exploded and died back then had?"
"It's been too long, I've forgotten a bit, but back then he was just a disciple of a sect with no reputation, his talent physique probably wasn't high, I think it was the Immortal Building Physique or something."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Father, do you think it's possible that the Heavenly Spirit Pearl can cause people with low innate physique to explode and die after consuming it? But it's not only for people with supreme physique."
"I am a Holy Spirit Body. My father witnessed me undergoing the Spirit Stone Trial. Could it be that because the Holy Spirit Body and the Supreme Body are only one level apart, the Holy Spirit Body can also endure the test, and the Heavenly Spirit Stone can help those with the Holy Spirit Body improve their talents and become Supremes?"
"If this Heavenly Spirit Stone can only upgrade the Supreme Body to the Supreme Realm, wouldn't it be of little use? Then why has it become such a sought-after treasure?"
Seeing Ye Qinghao's furrowed brows and the doubt in his eyes, Ye Qing'an smiled and added, "However, this is just my wild guess. After all, it's true that I only have the Holy Spirit Body, but it's also true that I didn't explode and die after consuming the Heavenly Spirit Pearl, but successfully upgraded to the Supreme Realm."
"I really can't say for sure why."
Ye Qinghao walked a few steps through the woods with his hands behind his back before suddenly turning to look at Ye Qing'an: "I heard that the medicine bottle that the military doctor gave you originally contained two pills? And those two pills were exactly the same?"
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Yes, there were indeed two pills in that pill bottle at the time, and the two pills were exactly the same."
"Where did the other pill go?"
"The other pill..." Ye Qing'an frowned, as if recalling carefully, "It seems that General Gu took the other pill away."
"Gu Hai?"
"Yes." Ye Qing'an nodded: "When Gu Hai came to check the situation, he took the pill away in order to identify whether the pill in that medicine bottle was the Heavenly Spirit Pearl."
Veins were faintly visible on Ye Qinghao's forehead, which looked somewhat ferocious under the light of the fireflies.
"Gu Hai..."
Ye Qing'an's eyes widened slightly, as if she had suddenly remembered something: "By the way, General Gu seems to be a Holy Spirit as well. Could it be that after seeing me upgrade to a Supreme after consuming the Heavenly Spirit Pearl, he also consumed the Heavenly Spirit Pearl?"
"I felt that General Gu's gaze towards me earlier seemed a bit off. It was probing and thoughtful..."
