The demand made by Ba Dao was indeed sowhat excessive.
Typically, when a Cultivator seeks an Alchemist to create a Pill, regardless of whether the Alchemist succeeds, the Alchemy ingredients provided are not returned.
Yet, Ba Dao insisted on this requirent, which seed a bit excessive to outsiders.
After all, no Alchemist can guarantee a successful Pill creation.
Even fifth-grade or Sixth Grade Immortal Alchemists have so likelihood of failure when crafting relatively unique low-level Pills.
Though the probability is low, it’s still a risk, isn’t it?
Watching from the side, Bai Shan’s face bore a gloating smile.
He silently critiqued, "You’re so confident now, but if you fail, what will you have to counter ?"
However, Zhu Fei’s face remained unchanged upon hearing Ba Dao’s demand, wearing a faint smile.
He continued, "Sure, if I fail this ti, I’ll compensate you for the Heavenly Soul Pill materials, but..."
At this point, Zhu Fei paused abruptly before continuing:
"But, if I succeed in crafting the Heavenly Soul Pill you need, you must ensure that before I finish helping everyone with the Alchemy, no outsiders will disturb . How about it?"
"Hmm, that’s acceptable." Ba Dao nodded imdiately without hesitation.
Seeing this, Zhu Fei started the crafting of the Heavenly Soul Pill with Ba Dao’s ingredients without any reluctance.
Once again, the eyes of everyone present fell on Zhu Fei.
As promised, Ba Dao’s imposing aura sealed off the space around Zhu Fei, deterring Bai Shan and Jiang Yuan from any interference.
No matter how much Bai Shan and Jiang Yuan wanted to deal with Zhu Fei, they dared not act under Ba Dao’s cultivation.
As Zhu Fei progressed with crafting the Heavenly Soul Pill, many were amazed by his smooth and artistic technique, a pleasure to watch.
Expectation glimred in Ba Dao’s eyes, and even he, a Late Stage Golden Immortal, felt slightly nervous.
Bai Shan’s face turned grim, realizing he might have underestimated Zhu Fei.
Even while crafting the extrely challenging Heavenly Soul Pill, Zhu Fei appeared completely at ease.
"Buzz—"
Half an hour later, as Zhu Fei injected the final Pill formula into the Alchemy Furnace, a rich aroma erged.
Everyone’s expressions changed upon slling it.
Ba Dao, in particular, showed excitent mixed with anxiety.
His excitent stemd from the hope of the Heavenly Soul Pill’s success.
His anxiety was due to fears that Zhu Fei might falter at this crucial stage.
In his agitated state, Ba Dao failed to notice a transparent insect with a violent expression approaching Zhu Fei’s Alchemy Furnace.
With a "boom," the previously stable Alchemy Furnace began to tremble slightly.
The intense, chaotic vibrations snapped Ba Dao out of his euphoria.
Even others present showed sudden changes in their expressions.
Was it about to fail? What’s happening?
In a flash, this thought surfaced in everyone’s mind.
But Zhu Fei’s expression remained calm, a faint mocking smile playing at his lips.
He raised his hand suddenly, casting a flurry of bewildering Pill formulas, launching a fierce counterattack on the invading transparent insect with insights from the Creation and Transformation Pill Scripture and Creation God Tripod!
"Hiss!"
A screech resonated, vibrating everyone’s eardrums.
Startled, everyone looked to find the scarlet body and iron-like shell of a nacing insect carcass revealed beside Zhu Fei’s Alchemy Furnace!
"What’s this? A Slaughter Bug!"
Soone gasped in the crowd.
Everyone stared blankly at the insect’s corpse, shocked soone dared disrupt Zhu Fei’s crafting at such a critical mont.
The fact Zhu Fei noticed the insect and countered it during Alchemy astonished all.
It’s known Alchemists imrse all their focus in crafting, seldom detecting external changes, especially when creating a Heavenly Soul Pill.
Zhu Fei’s reaction and skill in this situation were unprecedented.
"Damn it!"
Ba Dao’s eyes flashed viciously, as an thin blade of light darted across the Slaughter Bug’s corpse, obliterating it.
Sweeping his gaze, a dangerous glint in his eyes made everyone shiver involuntarily.
Ba Dao realized Zhu Fei’s Alchemy might have failed due to the disruption.
Yet he didn’t bla Zhu Fei — the responsibility to prevent interference was his.
At least he had the courage to accept responsibility.
As Ba Dao considered finding the saboteur, Zhu Fei’s Alchemy Furnace emitted another wave of aroma!
This ti, the scent was even richer and more concentrated than before.
At this mont, everyone, whether Ba Dao, others, Bai Shan, or Jiang Yuan, paused in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief!
