Liam finished smoking and secured the pipe in his belt. He did the same with the pouch on his back, only retrieving the Rising Waterfall Sect's green jade to confirm his location.
The jade went in Liam's underwear once he was ready to climb out of the basement. He had no stairs at his disposal, but some of the piles of debris were tall enough for him to jump out despite his weakened state.
Truth be told, the healing pill was doing wonders. Only minutes had passed, but Liam's cultivation had already recovered a great deal of vitality.
Still, for that exact reason, Liam didn't want to stress out his roots more than necessary until they had fully healed, holding back on exerting too much Qi.
Luckily, the time for superhuman jumps was over. Liam returned to the hall, only to exit the half-destroyed structure, returning to the lake of debris while following the incomplete map.
