After a few more minutes, Fang Zhou suddenly felt an unprecedented resonance.

The Black Magic Bottle had reacted!

Fang Zhou took a deep breath and continued to guide the Undead Attribute Energy, allowing that power to merge more smoothly with the Black Magic Bottle.

However, the gray light emitted by the Black Magic Bottle flickered unsteadily. It showed a slow upward trend but never reached the critical threshold.

Despite consuming a large amount of Spiritual Power to guide the Undead Attribute Energy from the environment, not a trace of the gray smoke Yue Pengfei had mentioned appeared.

Finally, after several attempts, Fang Zhou discovered an important characteristic of the Black Magic Bottle.

It could absorb and store Undead Attribute Energy, then produce gray light and even gray smoke through an internal reaction mechanism.

Only when the Undead Attribute Energy, both external and internal, reached a certain threshold would it release the mysterious gray smoke.

There was only one reason why his sustained input of Spiritual Power and Undead Attribute Energy had failed to produce the desired feedback.

It's because I'm too weak. The amount of Undead Attribute Energy I can provide is simply too little.

Yue Pengfei had mentioned that, based on the judgment of the Magic Professionals in their team, this Black Magic Bottle should at least be a White-Ordinary quality Undead Attribute Marvel.

Generally speaking, White-Ordinary quality Marvels and Equipment corresponded to Black Iron-level power.

Currently, Fang Zhou was just a mere Middle Rank Apprentice.

Trying to use his own power to unlock the Black Magic Bottle was, for the moment, beyond his ability.

But this didn't mean it was hopeless.

He still had Instructor Su Xinyan, a gorgeous and powerful backer he could rely on.

No matter how demanding the Black Magic Bottle was, Instructor Su Xinyan's pure yet potent High-Tier Gold Energy would be more than enough to satisfy it.

Thus, Fang Zhou withdrew the gesture he was using to control the Undead Attribute Energy and turned to face Yue Pengfei.

"Brother Pengfei," he began, "I might not be able to fully uncover the secrets of this Black Magic Bottle for now, but I can be certain that it is indeed an Undead Attribute treasure."

Yue Pengfei nodded, his tone filled with anticipation. "So, are you willing to continue exploring the mysteries of this Black Magic Bottle?"

Fang Zhou glanced at Yue Lingyun, who stood to the side, and felt very calm.

"Of course," he replied. "I'm very interested. Moreover, I must thank Ling Yun. It was his introduction that gave me the opportunity to encounter such a precious treasure."

With that, he gently took out an item from his Space Storage Capsule. It was the Evergreen Fruit—a Natural Attribute Heavenly and Earthly Treasure that Yue Lingyun had long coveted.

"Brother Pengfei, do you have any suggestions on how to proceed with the trade?"

Evidently, Yue Pengfei had already discussed the transaction requirements and details with Yue Lingyun. He already had a clear idea and said candidly, "To tell you the truth, this Black Magic Bottle is a very pure Undead Attribute Marvel. It doesn't have much practical use for me. Originally, considering Ling Yun's need, I was willing to trade with you just for this Evergreen Fruit.

"However, it was acquired through the joint efforts of our team. According to our previous agreement, the proceeds from this Black Magic Bottle should be shared among all our team members.

"Considering this, Junior Fang Zhou, it would be most suitable if you could add a compensation of 50 Contribution Points."

Fang Zhou listened and quickly made some calculations in his head.

This Black Magic Bottle is at least a White-Ordinary quality Undead Attribute Marvel. Moreover, its inscriptions are vastly different in style from the knowledge of human Undead Mages. That alone proves it isn't a creation of Blue Star's civilization. If it's an Undead Attribute Marvel from some unknown civilization in the Mythical World, its value would be even greater. If that's the case, the bottle's true worth far exceeds what its appearance suggests.

Ultimately, he decided to accept Yue Pengfei's terms.

Trading an Evergreen Fruit and 50 Contribution Points for Yue Pengfei's Black Magic Bottle is a true win-win.

Yue Lingyun's eyes shone with irrepressible excitement.

His hands trembled slightly as if holding the most precious treasure in the world, and he carefully accepted the gift he had coveted for so long.

"Thank you, Big Brother Fang Zhou, thank you, Cousin!"

Fang Zhou waved his hand lightly. "It's a fair trade. We each got what we needed."

Then, he took the Black Magic Bottle, which was carefully nestled in a brocade box, from Yue Pengfei's hands.
