Zhou Qing looked at the pill. His expression had initially shown no change, but as time dragged on, he became increasingly unable to conceal the shock in his heart.
Because the pill in Yang Chen's hand was none other than the Earth Jade Pill he had dreamed of—one that even an Earth Martial Realm martial artist could not dream of obtaining. With this pill, an Earth Martial Realm martial artist could directly raise their strength by one level!
For example, if he, Zhou Qing, used this Earth Jade Pill now, he could leap from the Earth Martial Realm peak straight into the half-step Heavenly Martial Realm in one breath, reaching a higher realm.
Of course, for someone at the Earth Martial Realm peak to take an Earth Jade Pill and reach the half-step Heavenly Martial Realm was not a certainty.

Of course, Zhou Qing's foundation was profound, completely unlike those martial artists who had only recently entered the Earth Martial Realm peak. With his current foundation, if he took the Earth Jade Pill and entered the half-step Heavenly Martial Realm, success was as good as assured.

He had believed he would only have the opportunity to attain such a realm after working for the Bai family, yet unexpectedly...
