Thanks for the invitation, I just entered the chat group after traveling through Under One Person.

Chapter 245 Trading Panel
"Huh? How did these people appear? Did they also come to the island from the outside? Why didn't we notice them?"

"Something seems off, but I can't quite put my finger on it."

"Should we notify that person?"

"Lets see."

The cultivators who were watching Song Shuhang's situation from behind also noticed the appearance of Su Yun and the others, but they did not realize the seriousness of Venerable Bai's appearance on the mysterious island.

The Mysterious Island is essentially a fragment of an ancient celestial court, whose ancient powerful beings endowed it with a highly automated and regulated trial/inheritance space. It operates like a sophisticated instrument, following a pre-set program.

Then, Jin Gua, who had been living in seclusion there, covered the mysterious island with a power that resembled a real illusion.

The reason why Venerable Bai could not find the Mysterious Island was not because the Mysterious Island could cause amnesia, but because Venerable Bai's luck prevented him from reaching the Mysterious Island.

Rather, this thing is hiding from Venerable White, preventing Venerable White from finding it. The reason is that Jin Gua mentioned in the original story that the mysterious island sealed the memories in order to prevent the current Heavenly Dao from discovering them.

The White Venerable has a close relationship with the Heavenly Dao, but he is not the current Heavenly Dao. However, the Mysterious Island is just a program, so it naturally cannot distinguish between the current and the former Heavenly Dao. In any case, it will avoid anything that is related to the Heavenly Dao.

So why didn't the Mysterious Island react excessively even though Venerable White had already appeared there? Naturally, it's because even Nine Nether White couldn't see through the causal relationships surrounding Venerable White, so a fragment of the Heavenly Court like the Mysterious Island naturally couldn't detect anything wrong.

The Mysterious Island had already done its best to avoid the White Venerable from finding it. Now that he was already on the island, what could it do? Drive him away? Even if it wanted to, it didn't have the will to do so.

In Su Yun's opinion, it's better to let Venerable Bai have his fun and send him away properly. If he tries any underhanded tricks, he might even suffer a backlash from Venerable Bai's luck.

However, according to Jin Gua, this fragment of the ancient Heavenly Court hid itself to avoid the current Heavenly Dao. Meanwhile, the Heavenly Dao's fat ball stated that the Heavenly Court essentially existed as its backup plan, meaning it was closely related to it.

This seems somewhat contradictory. In a novel, it could be interpreted as the author changing the established plot later on. However, in the context of a world experienced by Su Yun and others, which is a plot appearing in a fan fiction, there must be a reason behind it.

Su Yun felt it was either related to Song Mutou or the Heavenly Emperor. Suppose that some members of the Heavenly Court realized that the Heavenly Dao had tampered with their established power, and their own will wasn't being controlled, they would naturally rebel. The shattering of the Heavenly Court was very likely related to this matter.

However, none of this concerns them for the time being. With Venerable Bai and Song Shuhang around, Little Fatty doesn't need them, the group members, to worry about him.

"Now that everyone is here, let our host, Shuhang, lead the way and explore this place," Su Yun said with a smile.

"Huh? Me?" Song Shuhang looked completely bewildered, pointing to himself with his index finger. He was utterly clueless about this godforsaken place.

“Well then, let Shuhang lead the way.” Venerable Bai nodded in agreement with Su Yun’s suggestion. Song Shuhang often encountered interesting things that he himself never did, so naturally he would lead the way.

"Oh~" Song Shuhang nodded, not flustered at all. With so many seniors present, he would dare to venture into even the most dangerous places. This little mysterious island would be easy to handle.

"Seniors, how can we leave here?" An ordinary white-collar worker in the crowd couldn't help but ask Su Yun and the others.

"Want to leave this place?" The old man in ancient attire pointed to the towering tower in the center of the ancient city. "Do you see that tower? There is a strange market inside. Anyone who has something of their own can go in and exchange it for what they want."

Fair and honest dealings, absolutely equal exchange. You only need to complete one transaction in that tower, whatever it may be, and once completed, you can leave.

Su Yun and the others didn't answer. Upon hearing the word "leave," the old village chief, dressed in ancient attire, seemed to trigger some program, automatically replying. "So simple?" Song Shuhang asked, somewhat surprised. If it were so simple, why were the seniors in the Kyushu Number One group so disheveled after leaving the mysterious island, suffering serious injuries and even losing their memories?

Along the weathered ancient city road, the wide sleeves of an elderly man in traditional clothing swayed gently in the breeze, leading the group through the silent inner city. Scattered footsteps echoed on the bluestone pavement, and the towering gray walls on both sides cast long shadows, making the entire ancient city seem as if it had been forgotten by time.

Accustomed to the bustling city life, passengers unconsciously lowered their voices to talk. When the queue finally stopped at the foot of that towering tower, the mottled cloud patterns on the bronze doors gleamed eerily in the setting sun.

The elderly man in ancient attire tucked his withered hands into his faded sleeves, his voice hoarse like sandpaper: "I will see you all off here. Someone within the tower will guide you. Once the deal is done, your desired path home will naturally appear."

As soon as they stepped into the ancient tower, their feet suddenly gave way to emptiness, a feeling of weightlessness as if an elevator were plummeting instantly gripping their bodies. The next second, the scene before them abruptly changed, revealing a dazzling, jewel-encrusted palace.

Everywhere you look, there are wonders made of gemstones and diamonds: the table is made of countless faceted gemstones stacked on top of each other, refracting a mesmerizing river of light; the cups and goblets are actually hollowed out from a single giant gemstone, with the inner walls flowing with the unique warm luster of jade.

The overwhelming atmosphere of luxury was almost tangible, making it hard to breathe. The flight attendant subconsciously touched her hidden stash in her arms, a bitter smile appearing on her lips.

Forget about the things she owns; even if she sold herself, she couldn't buy the smallest diamond in the hall. That fist-sized crystal lay quietly in the corner, refracting light that could buy half an airplane.

"Welcome to Starry Sky Home! Here, we adhere to the absolute principle of 'equivalent exchange,' ensuring customers can buy with confidence and sell with peace of mind!" A clear voice echoed throughout the Gem Palace: "At Starry Sky Home, we are absolutely honest and trustworthy, offering genuine products at fair prices. We guarantee authenticity! If you find anything fake, we'll compensate you tenfold!"

Song Shuhang: "..."

After seeing off the ordinary people on the plane, the group walked out of the ancient tower.

"Tsk~ Why can't we see the redemption interface here? Is it because we smuggled ourselves in?" Cheng Yiyi pouted, feeling dissatisfied.

If she remembered correctly, they could exchange cultivation supplies for items from the ancient tower. As for being sent off the mysterious island, they could simply curry favor with Venerable Bai. Yes, she just wanted to exchange some of the treasures from the ancient tower with Bai Pu.

"I did see the trading panel." At this moment, Venerable White suddenly spoke up, saying that a trading panel appeared in front of him when he entered the ancient tower.

Compared to other people who only have one or two items to trade, the items on the trading panel that Venerable White can see are dazzling and there are several pages to flip through.

Su Yun and Cheng Yiyi both looked understanding. The Mysterious Island wanted to send Bai Zunzhe away before he could access the island's core secrets. But instinct told the Mysterious Island that it couldn't use force and could only act according to the rules.

If Venerable White chooses to trade something, Mysterious Island can then send Venerable White off the island according to the rules.

"Senior Bai, you didn't change anything, did you?" Song Shuhang asked subconsciously.

Venerable Bai replied calmly, "Hmm, no. I took a look, and these things aren't particularly valuable treasures. I have quite a few in my treasure vault."

Cheng Yiyi: "..."

She could already imagine that the trading panel was filled with all sorts of treasures that were extremely precious in the cultivation world. It was just a pity that the trading partner was Venerable Bai, an existence with invincible luck, and there was nothing in the cultivation world that was particularly precious to him.
