When he woke up, it was still the same time as he lost consciousness, but he was starving. "I guess I slept for a whole day or even two days. I lost track of time."

It flew at fast speed immediately arriving at the top of the cliff, and then continued to fly at amazing speed above the forest.

Ming Li swam as fast as he could at the shore of the lake. He immediately looked for safety before catching his breath. Upon series of dangerous encounters, he developed an instinct to only rest when the area is safe.

He grabbed the map and thought "I''m almost there. The reward is at hand."
Near the outskirts of the town, Ming Li saw an old man standing with a smile on his face. Ming Li stopped his steps and slightly nodded and said "Thank you."
"You did good kid". Chao Shi said and walked to the nearby hut. Ming Li followed while dragging his battered body into the hut. Chao Shi handed him a pill and the first thing he did was inspect the pill. He focused for some time, but he gave up since he could not detect what sort of herbs were used to create the pill.

It was a failure!
Ming Li stared at the pill turning to ash and sighed. He realized that the pill cannot be made easily and the process which he was using was probably not the best one. When the pill completely vanished, he closed his eyes and began to formulate processes which will improve the success rate of the pill. He meditated for full five hours until he gave up.

Ming Li slowly started to enter into meditative state while staring at the plants. All the information of the plants slowly started to form inside his head. It was a weird state where he was like communicating with the plants. Multiple information rushed into him. It was like the time he grabbed the seed of the art, but this time the information was lesser and easier to grasp. There were also multiple false information. It was up to Ming Li to select all the true information based on his own understanding. One wrong information could lead to failure. The art is only a guide. It would be up to the user on how proficient he would be able to use it.
Chao Shi stood nearby looking at him with warmth a master would have to his beloved disciple. Then after a while, he waved his hands causing mist to appear and cover a 30 meter area. This was the same mist he used at the wolves to save the warrior. When the mist completely filled the area, Chao Shi faded and completely disappeared.
After a while Ming Li''s eyes glowed with golden light. The light did not stop and only grew stronger until Ming Li slowly closed his eyes. When he suddenly opened them, the light was gone, but an obvious enlightenment can be seen on his face.
