5 Oops! (1/2)

Jun run through the forest like it was the back of his head and would constantly sent out his Master Realm Pinnacle qi to dissuade the beast from approaching. For others it might be hard to find the spike chameleons since they can camouflage into their surroundings but for Jun is was quite simple because he cultivated the Heaven and Earth eyes. This was a eye technique his mother left for him. Furthermore it was only two years ago when he was able to truly activate it thanks to the Samadhi Fire Pill that he made from scratch using his mother's note.

In 30 to 45 minutes Jun was already back with the blood of the spike chameleon. He also hid his cultivation again.

”I'm back guys,” he said happily.

”Wow you're back so fast!” Mei exclaims.

”I come to fennik forest a lot,” Jun explains. ”I use to come with my father a lot.”

”Oh,” Mei said.

Jun glances over and saw that Xintong was fully concentrated in making a pill. Her movements were graceful and precise almost like a machine performing the task.

”Whats she making?” Jun asks.

Mei shrugs her shoulder.

”She's making a poison protection pill,” Hui explains while munching on some beans, and berries.

”Oh, well I brought the spike chameleon blood.” Jun whispers. ”Is brother Ziyu and Ti not back yet?”

”No not yet,” Mei answers. ”Their cultivation is pretty high so they should be back pretty soon.”

Since there was nothing more he could do Jun chose to watch the cave where the Moon Bat bees were sleeping at. His mind was making calculations for escape. There were four areas where he could technically escape too for protection. The King Black Bear territory to the south. The King Stripe Wolf territory to the east. The Ant hive to the north but Jun thought to himself he rather not go into another bug territory. Last the King Voilet Sparrow in the west.

Another 20 to 30 minutes passed by before the San Ti, and Ziyu came back. There were bruises, and dirty all over San Ti. Ziyu's clothes were all scratched up with scars in some area.

”What happened?” Jun asks. They should be able to handle a striped panther easily.

San Ti with an ugly expression on his face said, ”yeah it was easy till the whole pack showed up. There were at least 20 of them with three at the Master Realm level.”

When Xintong finish making the pills and looked up she saw the bruises and San Ti and Ziyu and instantly became worried.

”Ziyu, San Ti eat these pills. They should help you with the injuries,” Xintong said as she rampaged through her bags for the pills.

They both took the pills and their skin wounds began to heal at a visible pace.

”Luckily our brother Ziyu here manage to kill their leader scaring the rest to run away,” San Ti smirks proudly.

Mei rolls her eyes, ”its not like you were the one that killed him. Why are you smiling so annoyingly for.”

San Ti chuckles, ”I San Ti regard brother Ziyu here like my real brother. Of course I would regard his accomplishment as my own.”

”Shameless,” Mei whispers under her breath.

”Alright enough arguing. Xintong can you make the pills in time?” Ziyu asks.

”Yes, but I'm gonna need an assistant,” she said looking around.

Everyone looks at each other since none of them ever touched alchemy before.

Jun raises his hadn't shyly and said, ”I have a bit of experience if it helps.”

”Thats great!” Xintong nearly shouted. ”As long as you can help me control the flames we should be able to finish within the time limit.”

Jun gave a mysterious smile because a rank 2 alchemist just became an assistant to some unknown and possible unranked alchemist.

When Xintong started making the body changing pill Jun noticed that she threw in all the ingredient in the cauldron from the beginning.

She saw Jun's staring at the cauldron and thought he was confused of her unorthodox way of making pills. ”Oh this process was taught to me by my brother. It reduced the time need to make a pill but requires higher perception and timing.” She explains.

”Oh thats awesome! I usually only see the mainstream method. You must be a genius to be able to do this,” Jun said pretending to be excited.

She blushes but randily accept the compliment, ”I'm alright. My brother was the genius. You just need to help me control and maintain the flame.”

”Okay!”
