Although Tazhuo appeared to be browsing soul-nurturing pearls, he remained constantly alert to his surroundings. When he was pulled by a familiar aura, he knew this was the exact moment Fairy Jian had mentioned. Following his instincts, he left Fengdu City along the trail of that aura.

After hesitating in place for a moment, he ultimately succumbed to the pull of the familiar aura and chose to follow Fairy Jian's instructions to press onward.
