Hunt for the Mad Apothecary

The old man clearly stated that Alex needed to take Yue with him because, as a realm inhabitant, she knew the ways around and could be of immense help, especially since locating the mad apothecary would be challenging due to the abominations guarding each of his hideouts labs. 

Despite his skepticism about the old man's intentions, suspecting that it might be another ruse to get him to spend time with Yue, he had decided to go on this trip even though he would be working toward the same goal against an imperial sect.

Finding the mad apothecary before the Imperial sect was a daunting task, but with Oldman Kang's help with the intel from his friend and his own ability to extract memories, Alex held on to a glimmer of hope.

Alex learned more about the Clone Infusion and the Mass Assimilation Technique from Oldman Kang and how this selective version might work before leaving in search of the mad apothecary.
