After leaving Purple Heaven Palace, Shen Mo didn't head straight back to his Inner Door cave mansion. Instead, he headed directly to the Alchemy Zone.
Along the way, Shen Mo distinctly felt the atmosphere within the Riverside Sect changing. Passing disciples hurried by, a sense of urgency etched on their faces. Their conversations revolved around topics such as the Heavenly Demon, the merit of slaying demon, and how to rapidly increase their combat strength.
Upon arriving at the Alchemy Zone, there were noticeably fewer Alchemists out and about. Most Alchemists were secluded in their cave mansions, diligently refining various Elixirs to counter the demonic catastrophe. The entire Alchemy Zone was saturated with the fragrance of various medicinal herbs.
As Shen Mo passed by the Cuizhu Elixir Room, he noticed many new Alchemists coming and going, making the place unusually bustling. It was a stark contrast to its previous quiet and serene atmosphere.
