2434 The Source Of The Spiritual Power 3 (1/2)
Gu Xijiu was astonished. Were his gastric juices abnormally strong? How could the absorption be so swift? What kind of powerful feature did his body possess?
If the pill was digested so quickly, the spiritual power of the pill should have been transferred to his body. It should be accumulated at the core of his body by now.
Gu Xijiu carefully traced his veins. There was nothing wrong with his blood circulation. Additionally, everything in his system seemed smoothly regulated. However, she was disappointed as she could hardly feel any spiritual power in his body.
It seemed that his body was a bottomless pit that managed to absorb the pill and its power along with it. The magical pill that worked wonders for her was obviously ineffective to him.
Gu Xijiu stood in a daze, trying to comprehend the situation.
Di Fuyi was equally confused. ”I have had one of these pills before, and it worked very well for me back then. Have they lost their effectiveness in the Shura World?”
Suddenly, he was reminded of a past incident. His mother once had a strange encounter where there was a bottomless pit in her body that would swallow all sources of spiritual power almost instantaneously, leaving her body with none. Finally, she found out that it was all because of a sinister being in her body. All of her spiritual power was drained to nourish the growth of the sinister being.
Was the same sinister being in his body as well? The scary thought gave him a shudder. He tried to examine his body, but could not find anything odd.
Gu Xijiu carefully read his pulse and realized that his condition remained just the same. There was only a slight increase in his spiritual power, which was still very limited. The effect of the pill was even worse than the spiritual stone. Hence, perhaps the most logical explanation was that the pill had lost its power.
Gu Xijiu was ready to give up. She kept the pills away but was abruptly distracted by a sudden scream.
”Watch out!” A man called out in a panic.
