Flying Solo

Once we got to the surface, Mei Mei didn't waste a breath as she ran towards the Forsaken Tree. Once we arrived there, she handed me a capsule. "Take this."

The capsule was a normal-looking one, with an encasement of red and white thin plastic-like substance. It was like you're regular pain reliever. The only difference was I could sense a trace of Qi from the Forsaken Tree there. I was hesitant to intake it at first but seeing Mei Mie pop one in her mouth without batting an eyelash proved that it was a harmless pill.

"What's this? Some sort of Cultivation Pill?" I asked. I've seen plenty of cultivation pills before but none looked like medicine. Most of the time, it resembled a bead or a small metal ball. But now, this pill clearly resembled an actual pill!
