An hour later...

"Yuchilin, something seems wrong here..." Liu Yueyao said tremblingly, holding her hands up and breathing out, trying to warm herself up. It was a hot summer day, but there was frost!

Liu Yueyao looked up at the sky and was suddenly shocked. She widened her eyes and looked at the scene in the sky in disbelief. She turned around and shouted, "Yuchilin! Look at the sun!"

Yuchi Lin followed Liu Yueyao. He also noticed the abnormality of the surrounding environment, but he did not feel fear and panic like Liu Yueyao. Suddenly he heard Liu Yueyao's shout, he looked up and asked in confusion: "What happened to the sun?"

Liu Yueyao pointed at the sun in the sky and said with a hint of panic in her voice: "It was noon when the dark clouds dispersed just now. We have been walking for an hour, but the sun is obviously still in the same place! It has not moved!"

Yuchi Lin frowned and looked carefully at the sun in the sky.

Yuchi Lin scratched his head in confusion: "What does this prove? It's hot in the summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and the sun doesn't set. Isn't this normal?"

Liu Yueyao frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Idiot! I feel like we seem to have entered a mysterious barrier, and accidentally triggered some kind of formation!" Her tone was filled with a hint of anxiety and worry.

Yuchi Lin shrugged disapprovingly: "Just go out, why panic?" He really didn't understand why Liu Yueyao was so nervous.

Liu Yueyao glared at Yuchilin and said angrily: "Did you forget your brain at home when you went out! There are only two of us here. Do you understand the formation? I don't understand it either! It's easy to get in, but it's hard to get out. Maybe we will be trapped here for the rest of our lives!" She became more and more angry as she spoke, and she wanted to punch Yuchilin.

"What should we do then?" Yuchi Lin also suddenly felt nervous.

"What should I do? What should I do? How would I know? I'm just a half-baked talisman master. I haven't learned much about formations... Ah! I'm so annoyed!" Liu Yueyao held her head and turned around in place, muttering to herself, her brows tightly furrowed, looking irritable and uneasy.

"You're making me dizzy. A half-baked person is always better than me. Just give it a try. Don't worry, I'm here to protect you!" Yuchi Lin looked at Liu Yueyao's anxious look and felt a little reluctant. He walked up to her, patted her shoulder gently and comforted her.

When Liu Yueyao heard this, she stopped and looked up at Yuchilin, with a glimmer of gratitude and trust in her eyes. She took a deep breath, and seemed to get some strength from Yuchilin's words.

Yuchi Lin felt Liu Yueyao's gaze, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an encouraging smile: "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way out." His eyes were full of firmness and determination, which moved people.

Liu Yueyao nodded slightly with a smile on her face. She began to recall the knowledge about formations she had learned before and tried hard to think about how to break this formation.

However, at this moment, Yuchi Lin suddenly said: "If there is any danger, I can run away in time." This sentence was like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing Liu Yueyao's fighting spirit that had just been ignited.

Liu Yueyao widened her eyes, looked at Yuchi Lin with anger, and said through gritted teeth: "Can't you say something nice?" Her face turned very ugly, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on her.

Seeing this, Yuchi Lin scratched his head and said innocently: "I'm just telling the truth." There was a hint of helplessness in his tone. He didn't understand why Liu Yueyao was suddenly angry.

Liu Yueyao glared at him and ignored him, continuing to think hard about how to break the formation. She thought to herself, how could this man be so unromantic, always saying something infuriating at critical moments.

Liu Yueyao took a deep breath. How come she has become unlike herself since she met him? She was going crazy! Where did the innocent and lovely self go? Why was he always so easily irritated?

————Yamashita Auction House

The disciples looked at the huge doorplate, Nebula Auction House.

At this time, many people gathered outside the door and were queuing up to buy tickets. As they queued up, they whispered to each other: "You know, I heard that this place was newly opened in recent years. I don't know who the owner is. He can actually gather all the things from the five countries in one place. I'm afraid he has a great background!"

"Need I say more? The gimmick of the spirit beast alone is enough to make it famous!" someone echoed.

Everyone nodded in agreement. They looked at the long queue, then turned to look at the seemingly inconspicuous little house in front of them, and couldn't help but wonder: Can such a small house really accommodate so many people?

At this time, a disciple in the front row couldn't help but ask his doubts.

There was a man in front who was responsible for selling tickets. He was wearing a black mask. After hearing the disciple's question, he replied, "This should be your first time here."

All the disciples nodded.

The man continued to explain: "You may not know this for the first time, but my auction house is actually located underground, and the house above ground is just a place for everyone to rest."

The man continued, "Ordinary tickets cost 10,000 low-grade spirit stones per person, and you can enter the first floor hall and move around freely, but there is no guarantee of a seat. The private room tickets are divided into two types: the second and third floors, and the prices are 20,000 low-grade spirit stones and 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones respectively. Among them, the private rooms on the third floor not only have a good view but are also quiet, so the price is relatively high."

When everyone heard the price, they opened their mouths in surprise. They thought they only needed to spend a little money to enter the auction, but they didn't expect the ticket price to be so expensive. Many people began to hesitate because they felt that the money was not worth it just to go shopping, and they might not be able to buy the items they wanted. So everyone shook their heads and said they would give up buying tickets for the private rooms and choose to make do on the first floor.

Despite some complaints about the high ticket prices, many people were still willing to spend money to join in the fun. They paid the corresponding spirit stones to the man in charge of collecting fees.

The man seemed to be the person in charge here, and there were two men wearing silver masks standing beside him. Surprisingly, even if you look closely, you can't tell how high their spiritual power level is.

One of the masked men took out several masks, black capes and some number plates from his arms and handed them to the people present. Everyone was confused and didn't know what these things were for.

Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, the man smiled and explained, "This is the rule of our auction house. After all, every customer needs to protect their privacy, so these masks and cloaks are spiritual tools. Not only can they change your appearance, but they can also prevent others from exploring your cultivation! My name is Manager Yue. If you have any questions here, you can come to me for help! In addition, fighting is not allowed in the auction house. If someone destroys something, they must compensate according to the original price!"

After hearing this, everyone took the masks and cloaks, put them on, and nodded to show that they understood.

"Then please follow me in!" Manager Yue said, and asked a subordinate beside him to lead a few people into the door, while he continued to sell tickets and explain the rules to other guests...

After everyone followed the guide in, they first passed through a long tunnel, and then the view in front of them suddenly became bright, and at the same time, bursts of noise were heard in their ears.

"Wow, I didn't expect this place to be so big. It's simply an underground market!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect a place like this to exist."

"By the way, that building should be the auction building, right?" a man asked, pointing to a pavilion in the distance.

The guide glanced in the direction the man pointed, nodded and replied, "Yes, that's the auction building. There's still one hour before the auction officially starts. You can walk around first and see if there are any items you like." After saying that, he turned and left.

"Thank you!" The disciples nodded politely, and after watching the man leave, their eyes turned to the magnificent and majestic auction building in the distance.

"Let's go! Let's take a walk around first. After all, this ticket worth ten thousand low-grade spirit stones is not bought for nothing!" A disciple took the lead in suggesting.

"Let's go! I can't wait to see what good things are in here!" another person echoed excitedly.

So, a group of people walked around the underground market...
