Tongtian Auction, VIP Room No. 8.

The pale-faced man quietly gazed at the auction hall below, suddenly speaking in a low voice: "Go and investigate who is in that first-level box, and find out who it is."

"Yes, Elder Xu."

A faint voice responded, and then it seemed as if a shadow flashed in the room and quickly vanished.

"To dare to compete with me for the Traceless Immortal Grass, I'm really curious about who you truly are. I hope you won't disappoint me too much."

The pale-faced man, known as Elder Xu, continued to look at the auction hall below and murmured to himself.

...

A day later, the Tongtian Auction came to an end.

Elder Xu looked at the box where Zhu Fei was previously located, his face ashen, and his eyes filled with rage.

"Damn it! How dare you use a disguised puppet to deceive me! I will definitely find you and turn you into a real puppet of mine."

Elder Xu's words sounded seemingly calm, but the few people standing next to him couldn't help but sweat coldly on their foreheads.

They knew, the calmer Elder Xu appeared to be, the more terrifying his outburst of anger would be.

That person was finished.

Almost instinctively, the same thought surfaced in the minds of everyone present.

Yet, before they could react, a sudden loud "bang" echoed in their ears.

The mirror image puppet that Zhu Fei had placed here earlier was shattered to pieces by Elder Xu with a slap! It shattered into fragments like a mirror on the ground!

"Investigate! Conduct a full investigation! We must find out that person's true identity without any delay!"

Elder Xu's words, cold as an eternal winter, suddenly echoed in everyone's ears, making everyone shiver involuntarily, nodding hastily in agreement.

...

In a dark and serene mountain forest, Zhu Fei sat cross-legged, with an immortal artifact pill furnace placed in front of him.

Since he left the auction, he had not returned to the inn Rest Inn where he previously stayed, nor had he contacted Ye Yun.

Because he was very aware that these things were not secrets for an Immortal Monarch who truly intended to investigate him.

If he stayed in his original place or directly sought Ye Yun's protection, he would not be able to hide from the opponent.

That would not only plunge himself into despair but also implicate Ye Yun.

This was something Zhu Fei absolutely did not want to see.

So, after several hidden attempts and searches, Zhu Fei finally set his temporary foothold in this ordinary mortal mountain forest.

In the Immortal Realm Sky Domain, besides cultivators and various great sects, there are also numerous mortal nations.

They generally survive by relying on many immortal sects, and these immortal sects also regard these mortal nations as the foundation for their development.

At this moment, Zhu Fei had already taken out the numerous immortal spirit medicines he had obtained from the Divine Burning Tower.

Without the previous carelessness, Zhu Fei was noticeably more cautious in this alchemy session.

Because when concocting the Expelling Dao Pill, which seemed to be only fourth-grade but had an extremely high failure rate, Zhu Fei didn't dare to be careless at all.

Any mistake or accident could very likely lead to the failure of this alchemy attempt.

And if he failed this time, trying to gather similar alchemy ingredients again would truly be difficult.

Therefore, this time, unlike before, Zhu Fei carefully refined each alchemy ingredient one by one instead of throwing all the ingredients into the alchemy furnace at once.

First the Spirit Returning Flower, then the Withered Wood True Fruit, followed by the fifth-grade immortal spirit medicine Sun Ice Water…

In this way, Zhu Fei meticulously refined various alchemy ingredients.

Until he completely transformed the last necessary Traceless Immortal Grass into medicine liquid, Zhu Fei began to try activating the pill formula to condense them together.

"Buzzing—"

However, just as Zhu Fei activated the pill formula, intending to try to condense them together, the various medicine liquids in the pill furnace suddenly started to tremble slightly.

Observing their changes and condition, there were faint signs of an impending explosion.

This instantly gave Zhu Fei a fright, and before he could think, he immediately cast a pill formula to stabilize the medicine liquids.

Finally, under Zhu Fei's pill formula, the many medicine liquids that were about to explode calmed down temporarily.

But Zhu Fei knew this was only a temporary solution. If he couldn't find a way to condense them in a short time, the word "furnace explosion," representing absolute failure in alchemy, would still appear on him.

With thoughts racing in his mind, his hands began to try various techniques, but the result made Zhu Fei realize with a slight panic that it was useless, surprisingly useless!

No matter how he tried, how he researched, or how he activated the pill formula, the medicine liquids he refined couldn't condense well together!

No, I've definitely overlooked something; there must be a key point I've missed, causing the current situation.

With brows furrowed, Zhu Fei pondered bitterly.

Suddenly, it was as if a spirit light flashed through Zhu Fei's mind, making his eyes suddenly widen.

That's it, the Expelling Dao Pill, the Expelling Dao Pill—since it's to expel Dao traces, how can there be nothing corresponding inside?

If you don't even know what the Dao is, how can you talk about expelling Dao injuries?

At this moment, Zhu Fei finally grasped a crucial point.

However, what still troubled him was where to find that kind of thing to use as the alchemy introduction at this point?

Wait, I must have still overlooked something; it seems I indeed have that thing…

Thinking of this, Zhu Fei flipped his palm, and a jade bottle suddenly appeared in his hand.

He then opened the jade bottle, and three drops of liquid emitting a purple light were directly injected into the alchemy furnace.

Instantly, a strange fluctuation arose in the alchemy furnace.

The medicine liquids that initially couldn't condense or fuse began to gradually fuse and condense under the effect of those three purple droplets!

It works!

Seeing this scene, Zhu Fei's heart was filled with joy.

Indeed, the object Zhu Fei used as the alchemy introduction this time was none other than the Purple Dark Spirit Liquid, which had virtually disappeared from the entire Immortal Realm!

Were it not for this alchemy reminder, Zhu Fei almost forgot about this divine item, the Purple Dark Spirit Liquid.

This is, after all, the nearly unparalleled best harmonizing treasure in the alchemy process!
