Zhuge Shuaibo seed to realize this point as well, a rare look of gravity appeared on his face.
He said, "That's right, this ti the Hidden Palace Secret Realm does indeed allow Immortal Monarch experts to participate. It's precisely for this reason that I'm eager to quickly break through to Golden Immortal Cultivation.
After all, no matter how you look at it, being able to enhance my strength even a little is still beneficial. Even if we encounter danger, there's a slightly better chance at survival."
Zhu Fei didn't refute this; instead, after a slight pause, he asked:
"So earlier, why was Xue Chao so eager to recruit people for your Fengyun Pavilion? Is it true, as he said, that each faction must have a certain number of participants to enter the Hidden Palace Secret Realm?"
According to Zhu Fei's understanding, in such places, even if they open to other cultivators, the total number of permitted entrants should be limited. It shouldn't require a minimum number of participants as Xue Chao claid.
"Yes, this is indeed the case. Xue Chao wasn't lying. Any faction wishing to enter the Hidden Palace Secret Realm needs at least five participants; otherwise, Hidden Sword Heavenly Palace wouldn't let you pass."
"Hmm? There's sothing like this?"
Zhu Fei imdiately frowned, feeling that this requirent from Hidden Sword Heavenly Palace was extrely odd.
When any secret realm opens, don't they usually strictly control the number of entrants? Why would Hidden Sword Heavenly Palace require a specific number?
At that mont, Zhu Fei suddenly sensed a strong sense of conspiracy in this peculiar requirent.
He couldn't help but look at Zhuge Shuaibo, and coincidentally, Zhuge Shuaibo also turned to look at Zhu Fei.
Their gazes t in mid-air, and they imdiately saw a hint of solemnity in each other's eyes.
"Did you think of sothing?" Zhuge Shuaibo suddenly asked.
Zhu Fei nodded, "I feel that this so-called Hidden Palace Secret Realm might not be simple."
Zhuge Shuaibo nodded, "I have the sa feeling. But no matter what, this is an opportunity for us. Even knowing there might be a conspiracy and danger, I still don't want to give up."
"Neither do I."
Zhu Fei stroked his chin and suddenly said to Zhuge Shuaibo, "By the way, aside from you and and Xue Chao, is there anyone else planning to join?"
"Cough, cough—"
Zhu Fei's words made Zhuge Shuaibo cough uncontrollably.
He couldn't help but smile awkwardly before saying, "Besides the three of us, only a female cultivator nad ng You has agreed to join us.
In other words, our team is still short one person. But don't worry, finding soone to join our team isn't difficult; I should be able to resolve it soon."
While Fatty Zhuge continued his speech, Zhu Fei showed an extrely strange expression on his face.
No matter what, he never expected the world to be so small.
He had just left Guangcheng Heaven and arrived at Silver Moon Sky, and he already heard ng You's na from Fatty Zhuge, if they weren't just coincidentally sharing the sa na.
"Hey, Zhu Fei, is there sothing wrong with what I just said?"
Zhuge Shuaibo finally noticed Zhu Fei's odd deanor and couldn't help asking with so confusion.
Zhu Fei gave a dry laugh and suddenly asked, "Fatty, the ng You you ntioned, is she tall and does she have a beauty mark on the right side of her upper lip?"
With Zhu Fei's question, Fatty Zhuge froze, his eyes widening in surprise.
"What the hell! Zhu Fei, can you actually do this?"
No further explanation from Zhuge Shuaibo was needed; from his current reaction, Zhu Fei confird that the ng You Fatty ntioned was indeed the one he knew.
He couldn't help but smile wryly, "Alright, Fatty, enough with the small talk. When does the secret realm open? I need to prepare so things beforehand."
Seeing that Zhu Fei didn't want to discuss the topic further, Fatty Zhuge didn't press on. After thinking for a mont, he replied:
"It should be soti soon. A rough, conservative estimate suggests it will be in seven days."
"Alright, seven days from now, I'll co to find you. Hopefully, by then, you won't be missing anyone."
Chuckling, Zhu Fei quipped at Zhuge Shuaibo, and without waiting for his reaction, Zhu Fei flickered and vanished in an instant.
Watching Zhu Fei's abrupt departure, Zhuge Shuaibo was montarily stunned, then irritably remarked, "Damn you, Zhu Fei, leaving like that when I haven't even gotten a communication pearl from you in the Immortal Realm."
Despite his words, he wasn't overly concerned.
After all, they were both seasoned veterans in the cultivation world; such trivial matters weren't a problem for them.
After parting from Zhuge Shuaibo, Zhu Fei returned directly to Kuohai Immortal City.
Once back in Kuohai Immortal City, he headed straight to the largest marketplace.
There, Zhu Fei first sold so Immortal Artifacts he didn't need, such as those he obtained from Lu Daozhen and Hong Liu Fairy.
Then he went to the Pill Pavilion, where he sold so pills he had refined earlier.
With these transactions, his previously dwindling supply of Immortal Crystals increased substantially, roughly estimated to be no less than five million High Grade Immortal Crystals.
After handling these matters, Zhu Fei went to stores selling Immortal Spirit dicine to buy materials for refining Expelling Dao Pills.
He was slightly disappointed that no one was selling Traceless Immortal Grass in these shops.
After dealing with most of what he needed, Zhu Fei returned to the previous Rest Inn and booked a VIP room.
In the room, Zhu Fei took out the Taiyin True Stone from Ye Yun and so precious Artifact Refining materials he had obtained earlier.
Indeed, Zhu Fei planned to refine a Defensive Immortal Artifact for himself.
Given the unpredictable dangers ahead in the Hidden Palace Secret Realm, Zhu Fei needed to add an extra layer of security for himself.
This ti, he intended to refine a High Grade Defensive Immortal Artifact for himself.
Although this was Zhu Fei's first attempt at creating such a high-level Immortal Artifact, he wasn't particularly worried.
The reason was the presence of Taiyin True Stone among his Artifact Refining materials.
Not only had he completed the Spell Light Device Upgrade Skill earlier, but the very presence of the Taiyin True Stone would assist him in elevating his Immortal Artifact by one grade during the refining process.
If not for this, given his current level of expertise in Artifact Refining, he wouldn't dare to casually attempt to create a High Grade Immortal Artifact.
