The moment the Tier-6 Divine Returning Spring Pill entered Mia's body, it displayed a reaction unlike any other recovery pills below tier-6.
It was like a fuse being lit, causing Mia's body to shine with brilliance like a star. Her pale skin regained her healthy glow, and the purplish tint on her lips receded in an instant.
Within a few breaths, the accumulated toxins in her body vaporized from her body like a powerful ray of light shining through the darkness.
Helen and Brian were immediately shocked by the startling phenomenon.
"What kind of pill is this?" Brian uttered with wide eyes.
"A tier-6 divine pill," Leon casually replied.
Nevertheless, he continued to observe Mia's bodily changes under the effect of the Tier-6 Divine Returning Spring Pill.
After the divine pill expelled all toxins and restored Mia's health to its peak, the medicine started to gather under her left rib cage region.
Mia felt an inexplicable sense of comfort. Then, however, a sudden wave of drowsiness overwhelmed her, causing her to fall into a deep slumber.
By the time she reawakens, the Tier-6 Divine Returning Spring Pill would have restored her missing kidney.
Shortly after, Leon handed Mia over to Helen to carry.
"Why did Mia's health suddenly deteriorate so much? Do you know what caused her to be sick, Leon?" Helen inquired seriously.
She didn't remember feeding Mia anything strange. But then again, the typical food in the Darkmoon Tribe was mainly comprised of beast meat.
"It's the environment, Mom," Leon sighed.
"The environment in the Infertile Plains is too heavy in dark energy, which isn't suitable for Mia. In addition, Mia is weaker than most children because she lost a kidney at such a young age. After all, her body only has half the strength to fight off the harmful effects of dark energy."
It might not be so bad if Mia stayed anywhere else in the Darkmoon Tribe. However, it just had to be in the palace, which had the densest dark energy due to the Divine Demon Tree.
Nevertheless, Leon didn't mention this to avoid making his adoptive parents feel worse.
Even so, Helen and Brian still blamed themselves.
"So it was my fault… If I didn't insist on staying here, Mia wouldn't have to endure this suffering…" Helen glanced at Mia's face with guilt and said, "This child… She's very bright. She kept silent about her sickness because she didn't want it to affect my business here."
"For Mia's sake, we should move back to the Human Domain," Brian stated.
However, Leon shook his head and said, "That won't be necessary, Dad. I already fed her the Tier-6 Divine Returning Spring Pill and restored her missing kidney."
Furthermore, the Tier-6 Divine Returning Spring Pill is more capable than just that. The tier-6 divine pill restored her health and also strengthened her foundations. It won't be easy for any sickness to infect her again."
The effects of a tier-6 divine pill are already considered a miracle in the mortal realm. However, the miraculous effect is even more so when fed to someone without cultivation.
"But is the Weeping Forest really that important, Mom? What are you trying to find there?" Leon inquired with knitted brows shortly after.
"To be honest, I don't know myself. However, there must be something special about the Weeping Forest for the environment in that place to be the way it is. Nevertheless, we haven't gotten many opportunities to explore it due to the ongoing conflict between tribes," Helen replied.
Leon furrowed his brows.
The Weeping Forest was full of yin energy, which reminded him of the Extreme Misty Forest, a Perilous Land. It was unknown what sorts of dangers lay deep within it.
For his adoptive parents' safety, he should explore the Weeping Forest and assess its dangers first.
"Mom, Dad, this land is full of dangers. So it's better if you both start body cultivation. I'll feel more at ease if you both become stronger. You don't have to worry about the cultivation method, though. I have one that you can both practice," Leon said.
Although Helen and Brian were slightly surprised by the topic, they expressed their agreement with a nod.
"Alright, son."
Helen and Brian didn't want to be Leon's burden. Thus, they would gladly start if practicing body cultivation could relieve his worries.
Shortly after, Leon transmitted the Godfiend Body Forging Method to them. Furthermore, he also added another cultivation method, the Heavenly Yin Revolving Dark Arts.
Since his adoptive parents cultivated yin and dark energy before, he found the Heavenly Yin Revolving Dark Arts most suitable for them.
"These cultivation methods…"
Helen and Brian lingered in the aftershock of learning the two cultivation methods, one for energy and the other for the body.
"They're primordial methods, Mom, Dad. They're superior methods that cannot be compared to what you've practiced until now. You'll understand once you start cultivating with them," Leon explained.
Shortly after, he took out some cultivation resources. Then, he put them in a spare Tier-6 Interspatial Ring before passing it to his adoptive mother.
"Please take this, Mom. The items in this interspatial ring should aid with your practice. I'll drop by another time to revisit you all," Leon said.
"You don't want to wait until Mia wakes up and spend some time with her, son? You know she misses you the most," Helen mentioned.
After all, Mia's life only changed for the better after Leon picked her up in the lower district.
Leon glanced down at Mia's sleeping face and tousled her hair. Shortly after, he shook his head with a smile.
"It's fine. I won't take too long to visit again like I did this time," Leon stated.
"Alright," Helen and Brian nodded.
Since Leon had made up his mind, they didn't try to keep him. Nevertheless, they felt a bit sad that they didn't get much to spend much time together like they did in the past.
"Stay safe, and make sure to visit us again."
"I will," Leon promised.
Shortly after, Helen glanced at Aria guiltily. They didn't get a chance to speak even though Aria visited them with their son.
However, Aria shook her head with a smile, expressing that it was fine.
They will get another chance to speak.
