The late-night arrival was indeed surprising, and Shen Xiang could sense the presence of He Feng.
"Three people, Master Ma, He Feng, and another is a divine king, probably the Sixth Prince," said Long Xueyi.
Shen Xiang told Huang Jintian, "Be discreet. Now pretend to be sleeping; they'll take some time before coming over."
A while later, Master Ma knocked on Shen Xiang's door and shouted, "Master Yan, we have esteemed guests."
Shen Xiang and Huang Jintian were puzzled by the Prince coming over so surreptitiously, but he stood up to open it.
Upon opening the door, he saw He Feng and that divine king. The latter had a black mask covering his face, making it impossible to see his appearance; undoubtedly the Sixth Prince.
He Feng greeted Shen Xiang with respect and said, "Master Yan, apologies for the intrusion. I have something important to say; please forgive me."
The tall man wearing a mask spoke, "Master Yan, we'll keep it brief. I can let you enter the palace, but once inside, you must complete your tasks rigorously on time. We urgently need Immortal Pills; if you manage, we won't disappoint you."
Shen Xiang pretended to consider it and said, "If I don't need to spend long periods in alchemy every day, I can try."
"Good. Feng'er, take care of the arrangements; I have other matters," said the Sixth Prince before leaving without further ado.
"Young Master, can I bring a companion in This is my master's relative; his assistance would help me expedite the alchemy process," said Shen Xiang, looking at Huang Jintian inside.
Huang Jintian appeared as a simple, elderly man, especially when he smiled with innocence.
"Amitar後期,不錯。我可以跟著來!" said He Feng as he nodded.
The suspicion that Huang Jintian only had Amitar後期 strength was too much for Shen Xiang. He felt that his old and crazy master wasn't as weak as he seemed, knowing how much he wanted to destroy dragons. Surely, his strength was exceptional.
He Feng brought them into the palace that night, and by morning, many people sought audience, only to leave disappointed upon learning of their entrance.
Unlike what Shen Xiang imagined, the palace wasn't luxurious but rather very simple, exuding a profound and aged atmosphere, clearly having been well-worn by time. Despite its simplicity, it conveyed a sense of solemnity and grandeur.
There were countless buildings inside. Shen Xiang and Huang Jintian sat in a carriage drawn by a divine horse, being called out only when the sun rose. He Feng was the one driving.
It was evident that the palace had complex dynamics, making He Feng personally escort Shen Xiang inside as a precaution against danger.
After leaving the carriage, Shen Xiang and Huang Jintian followed He Feng into a well-guarded estate, arriving at a tranquil area.
"Young Master, the shop and our contract…" began Shen Xiang. The contract was troublesome; if he didn't prepare Immortal Pills on time, he would endure discomfort later.
"Destroy it yourself. You're no longer bound by the contract; just concentrate on alchemy here. I'll have someone bring Immortal Pills later," said He Feng as he handed Shen Xiang the original contract signed by him.
Shen Xiang burned it and asked, "Young Master, why do you need so many Immortal Pills Can't you buy them outside"
"Master Yan, I don't need to know about this matter for now! Outside Immortal Pills are expensive and of poor quality, whereas we have vast stocks of ingredients. With your alchemy skills and speed, it will expedite our acquisition of more Immortal Pills," said He Feng.
He Feng added, "A high-level alchemist can produce two pills, most produce one, but you alone make four. Your speed is much faster than many alchemists."
They had their eyes on Shen Xiang's ability to utilize ingredients and his extraordinarily fast speed.
"Stay in one place, produce enough pills, and we'll let you leave later," said He Feng before leaving. Then someone brought a hundred sets of ingredients for Immortal Pills.
Shen Xiang and Huang Jintian lived in a small house at the foot of the mountain. He hadn't started alchemy yet but was processing ingredients.
"Master, can you explore the palace's conditions Although we can enter, there are many restrictions; we can't leave here yet, and the palace is vast," said Shen Xiang after receiving Huang Jintian's telepathic message. He worried about eavesdropping.
"It's best that we can enter. Two advantages: we can observe the situation from within, and if there's a conflict here, we're close to the battlefield. Outside, entering might be difficult," said Huang Jintian.
Of course, Long Xueyi could gather information efficiently; Shen Xiang had nothing to worry about.
Huang Jintian helped Shen Xiang process ingredients but found it tedious, eventually sitting aside.
"Kid, I'll show you something," Huang Jintian telepathically told Shen Xiang and then took out a small bird made of transparent crystal.
"Fly!" Huang Jintian lightly tossed it, and the transparent bird took flight. After flying out of the window, Shen Xiang leaned out, only to see it disappear into the sky.
"Heh heh. This bird is a very powerful divine artifact, able to connect with my spirit consciousness. I can use this small thing to check the situation inside through telepathy; I already have a way," said Huang Jintian, chuckling as he telepathically informed Shen Xiang. "However, the palace's array is formidable; it's hard to fly inside. But now there's no need for worry since we're all inside."
"Amazing. I'll start alchemy first; be careful, don't let anyone catch you." Shen Xiang took out the Fiery Dragon Treasure Furnace. With its help, he could work more effortlessly and quickly process a hundred sets of ingredients, albeit taking slightly longer as he had three days.
Shen Xiang would take a break from alchemy, walking outside as long as he didn't stray far from the small house. Strong people patrolled around him.
Food was delivered quickly whenever he called for it, and Huang Jintian enjoyed the luxurious meals provided by the palace while using his broken bird to observe the palace's movements.
Long Xueyi's收穫 was also significant; in just a day, she determined that the Imperial Feather Clan and Imperial Dragon Clan both had fifteen members each. It was surprising to Shen Xiang that the Imperial Dragon Clan supported the Sixth Prince, suggesting they were allies.
The Imperial Feather Clan was with the eldest prince, and seven princes united against the strongest Sixth Prince. Long Xueyi also observed more powerful warriors arriving, most likely from both sides.
"I see familiar faces. It's that old lady Wang Qiongjin again, and Fire God Palace's Grandmaster Di Tian. Surprisingly, they're all part of the Sixth Prince's side; not good people indeed," said Long Xueyi.o see her senior brother, so she was very polite. Otherwise, he would have already climbed over the wall.Not long after, Gu Dongchen came. He saw Shen Xiang and asked, "Senior Brother Liang, really yo...
