The grand opening of the Treasure Appraisal Convention!
The ceremony was simple because they were all young Jin Dan cultivators, so they didn't have the lethargy of seniors. Moreover, if there were any changes during the convention, an overly long speech now would be a bit of a slap to the face, so it was skipped quickly.
Lou Xiaoyi didn't conceal his unique interest in equipment crafting. His method of looking around before finally going to the place he liked was a bit too obvious, especially under the current situation where he might be monitored.
There would surely be someone monitoring him, even though he couldn't sense it. When this trap became the background of a power and not the actions of a small group, an ancient inheritance like the Huangting Daoism would surely have its own unique secrets. Moreover, in such a relatively narrow place with hundreds of people crowding around and Divine Senses crisscrossing like a spiderweb, how would you determine if someone was watching you? Who was watching you?
He directly arrived at the third floor of Guangcheng Palace, the place where the spirit artifacts were displayed, and it was also the floor with the most people gathered on the third floor.
The organizer's arrangement for the display this time was very unique. There were a total of 19 artifacts that had been refined with top-grade materials, and five artifacts would be displayed at a time. Every display would last for seven days, and then another batch would be changed.
Amongst the five artifacts, the top-grade materials involved were all different. There were spatial materials, soul gathering materials, ancient beast materials, star materials, and mysterious materials, yet there wasn't a single material of the five elements!
Lou Xiaoyi understood that this was the organizer paving the way for the great thief to make a move, allowing the great thief to familiarize himself with the process of the Treasure Appraisal Convention, the layers of defense inside and outside, and the surrounding crowd that he could borrow.
Golden Hall Realm cultivators were extremely familiar with the psychological trends of great thieves. Any experienced, ambitious, cautious, and extremely daring great thief would have a set of rules of conduct that belonged to him alone.
They would surely observe first, carefully observe to find the flaws of the Treasure Appraisal Convention, the pattern of activity of the patrolling cultivators, the psychological trends of the surrounding crowd, the strength of the restrictions placed on the treasures, whether the treasures carried some sort of tracking aura, and so on and so forth. All of these things required time to be slowly seen through with Divine Sense!
In the end, they still had to consider how to make a move, how to make use of the chaos in the crowd, how to choose a route to break out of the encirclement … This was a technical and meticulous job, and it wasn't something that a rash person could do!
This was a great thief, not a small thief!
Since he wanted to lure the bandits out, he couldn't put up the precious five elements materials right from the start, because the bandits might choose to give up because he was too hasty!
He had to do it step by step, allowing the bandit to slowly familiarize himself with everything around him and the convention. While familiarizing himself with the bandit, he would slowly cultivate his greed. Only then would he act when he felt that he was absolutely safe!
What a profound psychological prediction!
Therefore, although the 5 spiritual weapons displayed now were more valuable than the 5 elements materials in a sense, since they were not in the pockets of the Five Elements Bandits, they could only show them in advance.
This was a warm-up process to nurture one ear's emotions!
Lou Xiaoyi was bored when he thought about how he still needed seven days to cultivate his emotions. He wanted to tell the beauties loudly, "One of my ears has turned over a new leaf!" This time, I promise I won't make a move. Hurry up and take out the good stuff so that he can have a basic understanding of the treasure and the cultivator who holds the treasure. Then, close the curtain and part ways!
Unfortunately, he couldn't.
There was a round platform at the center of the third floor. Five cultivators sat cross-legged in five different directions, and in front of them, their respective treasures floated in the air and slowly rotated.
The rule was, you can look, but whether I want to explain it to you or not, that would purely depend on my mood! In reality, the most important thing would surely not be said stupidly. It would depend on your eyesight to see if you could discover something from the circulation of the spiritual opportunity of the spiritual weapon.
Occasionally, there would be exchanges. For example, a core disciple of the Clear Immortal Sect similarly took out his own spatial spiritual weapon. Of course, the materials weren't so high-end, and it was placed side by side with the Golden Hall Realm cultivator's spiritual weapon. The two of them exchanged their experiences on spatial spiritual weapons, comparing their strengths and weaknesses, discussing their gains and losses, and researching the refinement methods. They complemented each other, and the people beside them also benefited endlessly.
The only thing they couldn't accept was to ask impatiently, "Is it painful to hit people with this thing? How many layers of restrictions are there? How far can it hit? How's the penetration? What special methods do you have? "
Sometimes, when they were in the mood to chat, they would control the spiritual weapons to collide with each other to feel the might of each other's spiritual weapons. When there were many people participating, several cultivators would each take out a spiritual weapon of the same nature and communicate with each other. This was also the time when there were the most spectators.
Lou Xiaoyi couldn't get involved in these exchanges. It was very difficult to see through flying swords, as they weren't like spirit weapons that had countless applications, endless expansions, and different directions of deepening. This was the pleasure of a spell cultivator … Flying swords had a single function, and it was very simple to compare their strengths and weaknesses. Each sword would strike once, and the loser would be distressed to repair it, and the winner would be complacent.
So he could only watch, and when he was truly bored, he would run to the first floor to look at formation discs and talismans. He wasn't interested in talismans, but he still had some knowledge in the Dao of Formations, and it was better than being bored and watching others boast.
Formation discs were more interesting to look at because they involved some very rational things, like the integrated circuits in his previous life. His way of thinking in this aspect was somewhat different from this cultivation world, so even if he couldn't take out his own formation discs, he could still chat with the owner of the formation discs. When it was intense, he would even argue a little, because he always wanted to help others change their formation discs …
A few days later, he actually spent more time on the formation discs on the first floor than on the third floor. The key was that he could blend in, and become a freak among the cultivators of the Dao of Formations. The number of cultivators who argued with him also increased. Benefiting from the arguments, and converging in differences, was also an important way to improve in cultivation.
Then, he felt a strange gaze behind him!
It had already happened many times. Of course, someone as thick-skinned as Lou Xiaoyi wouldn't pretend not to know. That was the foolish thought of a steely man. This was actually a disguised invitation. If you couldn't understand, then you deserved to be without a Dao companion for the rest of your life!
"Miss, what's your name? Do you have a different understanding of my Dao of Formations? " Lou Xiaoyi leaned forward, and a strange fragrance assailed his nostrils. It was meaningful but not strong, and it was quite comfortable to smell.
"Yin Ya, I don't understand Dao of Formations, but I find it interesting when you argue with others. You look anxious and pale, like a scholar, but not like a cultivator!"
"Yin Ya? Good name, just like the person. Yin Ya Fengya … Then, is Miss Yin married? "
Who would ask this question when they first met? But considering this person's strange behavior, she didn't think it was surprising.
Yin Ya was Dafa, "Not yet!"
In Yin Ya's eyes, the strange person in front of her just said "oh," as if he was regretful? This didn't make sense. Shouldn't he be overjoyed when he heard this news?
Yin Ya had always insisted that this person was the kind of person who was completely harmless and trustworthy. Her observation over the past few days had confirmed this point!
She went to the third floor first. This was nothing. There were a thousand people present, and more than half of them went to the third floor. But this One Ear was obviously very careless about the understanding of spiritual tools. He looked around hurriedly, and the boredom on his face was very obvious.
It wasn't until she came to the first floor that she confirmed this person's hobby and interest. Yes, he liked Dao of Formations. This was completely unrelated to being a great thief!
She also felt a little regretful. If this One Ear was a great thief, how interesting would it be!
