Familiar Face

John and Adam spent the next day and a half in the cave. John focused on recovery, while Adam studied the broken formation disk with almost possessed passion. Every time he looked at the disk, its runes, and its formation make-up, Adam was inspired with new insights regarding the formation path.

"Amazing, truly amazing!" John heard Adam exclaim over and over.

He continued to tinker with the disk, and constantly tried new things regarding it.

John smirked but said nothing while he recovered.

'Seems like he's at least getting something out of it.'

By this time, John had fully recovered his lost essence Qi, and his body was over half healed. At the rate he was recovering from his wounds, John figured that it would only require one more day to be at full strength.

A frown suddenly appeared on John's face as he opened his eyes and stared towards the cave entrance.

'It seems I didn't hide my tracks well enough.'

Boom!
