《Fall For Me》Chapter 5: Oops
Advertisement
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!"
As they work together to make the pill Jun would sometimes help and fix part of the process without her notice. When they finish Xintong couldn't help but compliment, "wow Jun your flame control is fantastic!"
"It is your guidance."
"No not many people can control flames like you do. It was almost like you were reading my mind."
"Get a room you two," Hui laughs. "We should get back on task."
Mei smacks Hui on the head, "stop messing with out boss."
"Sorry," Hui apologizes.
"Lets eat the body changing pill now and release the aposaictd potion now. We can eat the enhancement pill later once we start to move so the effects last longer," Jun explains.
Sounds reasonable they thought to themselves.
"Okay. Xing Lin, Hui, San Ti and I will go get the flower. Mei will protect Xintong. Xintong release the potion as a mist into the cave whenever you're ready."

"Alright," Xintong said. She summoned a blue flame that was strikingly similar to Jun's. Then from her backpack she brought out a gallon worth of aposaictd potion.
"Leave a cup size incase it doesn't reach all the bats," Jun advises.
She nods her head.
"I'll be right back," Jun whispers to them and sneaks off like a ninja.
After 10 minutes there was only a cup of the potion left. Jun was also back by then.
"Alright lets go!" Ziyu whispers and motions. "Xing Lin lead the way."
Jun nods to show he heard his order. Jun pushes the bush aside and moved into the cave. Unlike the common the starflower the King Starflower lives inside the cave. It is also being cultivated and taken care of by the Moon Bat Bee's queen.
Without anyone's notice Jun activates his Heaven and Earth Eyes to check whether the bats are asleep or awake. There was also 10 more minutes before the moonlight comes out. Usually, and that means 99% of the time the King Starflower is kept at an area where moonlight could easily reach it and be magnified. When Jun sneaked off earlier it was to check where the hole was at.
The cave was dark and musky. There were many tunnels like a giant maze. Luckily Ziyu was totally prepared for this cave's navigation. He brought out two bottles of water and pours it onto the floor. Then he sat down and closes his eyes. The water became alive like living snakes. It broke off into 100 to 300 little water snakes and slithers away. In a minute Ziyu had a layout of the map.
"Follow me," Ziyu said as he led them to the right chamber in the cave.
Jun was always bad with directions and due to that he places a soul marker near the hold on the top of the cave. This way he always have a North Star he could follow without worry.
When they reach the end of a tunnel they came upon a magnificent chamber that awed them into silence. It was 10000 feet deep chamber with ceiling 1000 feet into the air. Not only that but what looks to be like a million Moon Bat bees were sleeping upside down in the chamber. they looked like earth bats on steroids. Their claws looked sharper than the sharpest Japanese sushi knife. Their wings had a bee like stripe pattern. The only comical part about them is that there was a stinger about 6 inches long coming from their tail bone. Their body size were about 18 inches and Jun can imagine how big their wing span was gonna be. After all that they saw a hole that was a 12 by 12 across the ravine 400 feet away and about 50 to 100 feet higher from their height.
For these bats that was an easy area to each but for humans that could not fly it was a nightmare. Luckily these thousands of bats were drugged by Xintong's mist potion to be in deep deep slumber.
Because of the required stealth of this mission Jun could not just run around the side of the cave too it or jump across the ravine.
Ziyu sat down onto the floor and from his bag he brought out 100 gallon cube of water.
Wow he had a inter spacial bag this whole entire time? Jun thought. Wonder why he didn't say anything. We wouldn't need to make the body changing pills if I knew about it. Since if I put the flower into the bag then the bats cannot track it at all. They would only be able to smell the person that touched that flower.
The water seems to have its' own consciousness and flew out to make a rope across the ravine. Then he water rope turned into ice.
Getting the idea Jun quickly ran across it reaching the other side of the cave.
After a couple more twist and turns they found the honey cave where the storage of honey was. If you can imagine an olympic pool filled with honey gleaming sparkling in the dark like the start sky then that is what they are looking at right now. San Ti was about to go get some honey when Jun stops him and told him to keep going. Right now was not the time to deviate from the plan. Jun decided to mark the area incase he ever comes back or craves raw honey.
After a few more twist and turns they finally arrived at the Queen's chamber. When they peeked inside they saw a seven feet size earth bat on steroids inside chamber. They all shuddered at the sight. San Ti quickly took out his potion and heat it up. Then send the mist into to drug the bats in there. Just incase the dose was enough Hui also did the same.
Jun made sure that the drugged worked with his Heaven and Earth eyes before sneaking inside. Like a master alchemist his hand movements were flawless as he began to remove the King Starflower from the ground. After removing and incasing it inside a special box Jun hands it to Ziyu to put in his bag.
All of a sudden from out of the chamber Jun, and Jiyu heard.
Bupe bupe bupe bupe!
"Oops."

Oxymoronic/Desktop/Babel_Maze
[19:27] Oxymoronic: Ever heard of escape room games? [19:30] Oxymoronic: You know, those places where you pay a hundred bucks to get locked in a room with impossible puzzles. Impossible for you, that is. Your smartass friend inevitably figures them out in seconds while you're sitting there dumbfounded, wondering where your money went. [19:31] Oxymoronic: Or maybe you are that smartass friend. [19:33] Oxymoronic: Well, I played an escape room game that even all the smartasses in the world couldn't have figured out. [19:35] Oxymoronic: I could have written a novel about what we have come to call the Babel Maze. But frankly, I'm not much of a writer. I'd much rather prefer to let the forum archives speak on their own. [19:36] Oxymoronic: Might take a few months to upload all this. Lots of clutter, lots of spam. Cleaning all this is going to be a nightmare. [19:38] Oxymoronic: That's just what internet janitors like me do.

8 153A Will to Recognize
What do you think it takes to live? Is it strength? Power? Magic? Unparalleled intelligence? Or are they all mere accessories to the fact that life is irrelevant? Do you have what it takes to bear the burden of life? Does life even matter? I don't know, and to be frank, I am somehow alive; I was even able to function in society at one point. It frightens me to think no one else knows our purpose: not our parents, friends, or mentors. And I can't bring myself to surrender to any religion. But I do have a direction. A goal, one might say. My wish is to one day shout on top of the highest mountains, "Life doesn't frighten me!" But that won't happen. Because I died a long time ago. ... You're still here? That? Oh it was all in the script. You didn't think I'd actually say that cringey stuff, did you? ~Daniel
