Chapter two thousand seven hundred and seventy nine
Ye Bufan's heart was already filled with turmoil, but his face remained as calm as water.
He looked away and looked to the side, acting like the other monks around him, as if he was just walking around casually and didn't notice the hidden differences in this square.
At the same time, he quickly calculated in his mind that it would take three days for this small space world to be completely refined, and the treasure appraisal conference being held now also took three days.
In other words, when the Treasure Appraisal Conference is over, or not yet completely over, this small world has completely fallen under the control of the city lord.
Walking on the street, he clearly felt that there were more people here than before. These were monks who came to participate in the treasure appraisal conference.
According to what he knows now, Paradise Island will hold a treasure appraisal conference every once in a while, which will never arouse suspicion from others.
Moreover, this place is absolutely fair and just for monks, treating demon cultivators, ghost cultivators and monster beasts equally.
Although transactions such as furnace cauldrons and souls are somewhat evil, in the eyes of monks they are perfectly normal.
It can also be seen from previous experiences that Paradise Island has worked hard for so many years in order to give everyone a fair impression.
He couldn't guess the purpose of the city lord doing this before, but now he knows that it is to attract more people to come here.
To change the metaphor, the city lord is like a fisherman, and fairness and justice here are the bait, in order to catch more fish.
When the small space world is completely refined, that's when he will close the net.
When the Treasure Appraisal Conference is over, both the lives of the monks here and the treasures in their hands will become the treasure of the city lord.
What a big conspiracy, such a deep castle, and such a tolerant character.
As the saying goes, thinking about it carefully is terrifying. Although he has not seen the city lord yet, Ye Bufan felt a sense of fear in his heart.
This person is really too scary, he actually started planning all this from thousands of years ago.
He stayed here for about a quarter of an hour. Although he did not look over, his spiritual consciousness had already seen the refining formation from beginning to end.
Although the four law enforcers guarding here looked very powerful, their cultivation level was only at the Mahayana stage and they were completely unaware of the penetration of his spiritual consciousness.
Ye Bufan secretly sighed in his heart, no wonder no one has discovered that the entire space is being refined here after so many years. The formation is really too clever.
This formation is a complete ninth-level formation, and there is also a ninth-level hidden formation outside.
The two formations are superimposed together. If it is just an ordinary ninth-level formation master, he will be completely unable to discover the secrets unless he comes with a purpose.
Even I, if I hadn't gone through the formation training on Panlong Island and raised my formation skills to the extreme, I might not be able to see through the layout here.
Now that everything is clear, all that remains is how to deal with it.
With his current ability to control the formation, he could make the refining formation go in his own direction with just a little control.
But the problem is that he can't get close at all. Although the four Mahayana law enforcers cannot stop him, everything must be under the supervision of the city lord.
Now that we have reached a critical period of closing the network, the other party will definitely monitor it closely and will never allow anyone to destroy it.
According to what we have learned before, the city lord is a strong man who has reached the late stage of transcending the tribulation or above, and this place is within his own small world of space.
Once the other party discovers that he has noticed something, it will definitely lead to disaster.
Because of this, Ye Bufan not only didn't dare to get close, he didn't even dare to stay here too long, and quickly left here with the flow of people.
He walked around a few busy streets before returning to the inn where he lived. At this moment, he already had a basic plan in mind.
If he could leave Paradise Island before the small space world was completely refined, he would not care about the things here.
After all, there are too many things in the world of cultivation that he cannot fully control. All he has to do is protect his friends and relatives, and then return to Earth as soon as possible.
As for what happened in Demonic Sea and what the city lord wanted to do, it had nothing to do with him.
But if you can't get the Overlord Grass and Immortal Qionghua you want before then, you can only find another way. You will never let the other party completely control your destiny.
After resting one night in an inn, early the next morning, he went to the previous store according to the location on the invitation.
This is the largest trading place on the entire Paradise Island. It was completely cleaned up a day ago and was changed to the location of this treasure appraisal conference.
At this moment, the place is filled with law enforcement officers, and the defense is obviously a hundred times tighter than before.
Ye Bufan came to the door and showed the invitation, and then came to the main hall.
In fact, you can enter without an invitation, but you will have to pay an additional amount of spiritual stones.
In addition, those who can get invitations here have extraordinary status and enjoy higher rights and status than ordinary monks.
After entering the door, Ye Bufan started to wander around here. According to the arrangement of the treasure appraisal conference, this place was divided into three days.
In the first two days, everyone is free to trade. Each monk with an admission ticket can set up a stall here and sell the treasures he wants to trade.
You can choose spiritual stones, or you can choose to exchange things for things.
The auction hosted by Paradise Island will not officially begin until the third day, and only then can you see the treasures on the invitation.
Moreover, the auction does not accept the sale of spiritual stones. It can only exchange objects for objects, using your treasures to exchange for the treasures of Paradise Island.
Anyone else would not think anything of it, but Ye Bufan knew there was something fishy about it.
The purpose of the city lord hiding behind is to let everyone take out their treasures and take them for themselves in one fell swoop.
On the first day, he wandered around the hall casually.
This place is really too big. There are tens of thousands of monks setting up stalls, and each of them will set up a restriction. It is impossible to forcefully use mental power to explore.
Because of this, he spent a whole day going around and looked through everything everyone had to offer. Although he also bought a few rare spiritual herbs, his harvest was not too great.
The Overlord Grass, Immortal Qionghua and Soul-Returning Grass he wanted were not seen here.
But it's normal to think about it. Tyrannosaurus herb and fresh viburnum are extremely rare top-level elixirs. Paradise Island used them as treasures at the bottom of the box to be sold at auction. It is definitely impossible for ordinary people to own them.
Some of the monks who came must have some rare treasures in their hands, but they would not trade them in advance.
He has to wait until tomorrow's auction meeting to exchange items for the treasures he has chosen in this auction.
After a day of observation, he got a clear picture of the situation here. There were monitoring formations throughout the hall, and everyone's every move was under the surveillance of Paradise Island.
Transactions here still adhere to the principle of fairness and justice. Generally speaking, no one dares to force transactions.
But there are special cases. Some people with extremely powerful backgrounds do not need to be forced at all. The other party is forced to sell at a low price due to their power.
For example, the one-eyed man in front of me, who was more than two meters tall, came to a stall aggressively.
A piece of spiritual grass was clearly priced at 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones, but he only threw down a low-grade spiritual stone.
But the other party didn't dare to say anything at all, so he could only hand the spiritual grass into his hand honestly.
The big man snorted proudly and turned around to find his next prey.
