The moment the pill crossed Li Yao's lips, its potent effects erupted throughout her system. Waves of healing energy cascaded through her meridians, mending torn muscles and shattered bones instantly. Her depleted spiritual reserves rapidly refilled as the medicinal essence worked its magic, washing away the exhaustion that had left her helpless moments before.
Since fifth-grade healing pills were specifically crafted for Soul Formation experts, the overwhelming surge of restorative power proved almost too much for someone at her Golden Core realm. But with her now Immortal-Grade spiritual root, the excess energy didn't go to waste, it was all absorbed into her core, strengthening her cultivation base.
As a Soul Formation level pill, it also carried potent soul-healing properties that the Empress eagerly absorbed, though even these weren't enough to fully restore the massive amounts of energy she had expended during the limit break.
