Chapter 2540

Inside the wooden hut, the Blind Old Man pulled out a small shelf from the wall beside him. Divine Bones, Divine Energy Condensates, and Archery Master Scrolls were all displayed on it.

Su Xiao could be certain that the Blind Old Man was not entirely a person from this world. The other party should have signed a very special contract, not with Reincarnation Paradise. If it were, the Blind Old Man would be defaulted as a neutral unit on his side.

The reason Su Xiao judged this point was because of the existence of scroll-type items. Only those who possess an imprint can use or hold scroll-type items.

Based on Su Xiao's experience, he speculated that the Blind Old Man should have signed a Tree Contract, which was a contract signed with the Tree of the Void.

This kind of contract is very special. After signing it, one will still remain in the original world, and the permissions possessed are also very few. One can obtain items not available in this world through the permissions of the Tree of the Void at the cost of paying certain specific items.

Just like the Blind Old Man's aura now, under normal circumstances, he should have died of old age long ago, but he didn't. Instead, his life was locked by some kind of ability, between life and death.

The Blind Old Man's trading targets were very broad. He not only traded with contractors who came here, but more often traded with the Tianba clan.

The Tianba clan did not kill him, nor did they capture him and ransack his property, indicating that he had a very special status within the Tianba clan.

Whether it was Divine Bones or Divine Energy Condensates, they should all be spoils of war obtained from the corpses of ancient gods after the Tianba clan killed them.

"Give me the Soul of Ba, as long as it's something I have, I can sell it to you."

The Blind Old Man laughed hoarsely. He was actually also trapped, trapped in the God's Hometown. However, as a signer of the Tree Contract, he did not care where he was. On the contrary, for him, the God's Hometown was a good place.

Su Xiao had encountered existences like the Blind Old Man several times, once in the Moon God Underground Palace and once in the Death House.

This kind of existence had a commonality: they were all very old, either old men or old women. If one wanted to trade with them, they only collected a certain specific currency or item.

Previously, Su Xiao's knowledge was not broad enough. With the improvement of his tier, his vision was very different from before. He classified this kind of existence into the same category: signers of the Tree Contract.

In most cases, trading with this type of person could yield quite a few benefits. As for trying to kill them and seize their items, it was best not to have such thoughts.

Su Xiao had once heard that a brother from a travel group had tried it, attacking a blacksmith who had signed a Tree Contract, and the result... staged an elderly hot-blooded anime. That travel group brother almost died.

The blacksmith was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. It was said that the brother was beaten up by the blacksmith. With two punches, the brother was seriously injured and dying. Other paradise contractors who witnessed this scene were all stunned. Just a short while ago, that brother from the travel group had just slaughtered the final big boss of that world, and the battle lasted no more than five minutes.

One could only say, fortunately, he was a member of the travel group. If it were an ordinary contractor, dozens of lives would not be enough to die.

Don't look at the Blind Old Man's half-dead appearance right now. If he stood up from the broken wooden chair, he would at least be in the same tier as the Giant King.

Su Xiao didn't care at all how strong the Blind Old Man was. The Tree Contract had many restrictions. For example, as long as the paradise contractor did not actively attack the signer of the Tree Contract, the signer of the Tree Contract absolutely could not actively make a move, and indirect sabotage was also not allowed.

Su Xiao originally had 40 Souls of Ba, but just now 1 was eaten by the Blind Old Man.

"I didn't say I wanted to exchange for items here, yet you just ate something that belonged to me."

Su Xiao did not directly start exchanging for items because he did not want to lose a Soul of Ba.

"The Tianba clan also does business with me. I have an agreement with their two leaders that no matter what happens, their clansmen cannot use force in my wooden hut."

The Blind Old Man's words seemed to be incoherent, but in reality, he was implicitly indicating that it was safe inside this small wooden hut. If there was an emergency, one could come here to take refuge, and that Soul of Ba would not be returned.

"Deal."

"I've been hungry for many years, see what you need."

The Blind Old Man tapped the small shelf beside him with his withered fingers. Seeing this, Su Xiao began to exchange for items.

The first thing Su Xiao exchanged for was the 【Divine Energy Condensate】. He wanted to try whether this thing could improve the quality of God's Judgment, and whether it could be 'eaten'.

Handing 20 Souls of Ba to the Blind Old Man, without seeing the Blind Old Man make any move, a light red crystal on the shelf beside him floated over. This crystal was about the size of a fist, and there was vaguely a bird image inside.

Besides exchanging for one 【Divine Energy Condensate】, Su Xiao also spent 3 Souls of Ba to exchange for 【Divine Bone (Epic Grade)】.

What was regrettable was that there was only one piece of Epic-grade Divine Bone. If there were one more, Su Xiao would have collected three pieces and could synthesize the Epic-grade 【Miracle of the Gods】. Combined with the Holy Spirit-grade 【Miracle of the Gods】 in his storage space, he could raise the Fate Master from Legendary grade all the way to Holy Spirit grade.

Only one piece of Epic-grade Divine Bone was missing. Before, Su Xiao had always thought that Divine Bones were useless, until he obtained one piece one day.

【You have obtained Divine Energy Condensate.】

【You have obtained Divine Bone (Epic Grade).】

There were 16 Souls of Ba left. It was very difficult to obtain this thing, but it was used up in the blink of an eye.

Su Xiao walked toward the outside of the wooden hut. After exiting the wooden hut, he sat cross-legged under the parasol tree beside the wooden hut. A breeze blew, and brown-yellow leaves fell.

Su Xiao first had to determine whether the 【Divine Energy Condensate】 could be 'eaten'. The energy of ancient gods could not be eaten, but ancient gods and ancient gods were not the same lineage of gods.

Black-blue smoke emerged on Su Xiao's hand. His brows furrowed. The energy inside this 【Divine Energy Condensate】 could originally be 'eaten' to improve the Qing Gang Ying ability, but now it couldn't. This kind of energy had lost its activity, unlike essence-type items that could maintain activity for decades, or even centuries.

Discovering that the 【Divine Energy Condensate】 could not be eaten, Su Xiao took off the God's Judgment ring on his hand and touched it to the 【Divine Energy Condensate】.

Pop~

A wave of energy spread out. Cracks appeared on the 【Divine Energy Condensate】, and God's Judgment began to absorb the energy inside. Noticing this, Su Xiao felt relieved in his heart.

God's Judgment absorbed divine energy very quickly. In less than a few minutes, the 【Divine Energy Condensate】 in Su Xiao's hand turned into residue.

Checking the attributes of God's Judgment, the growth rate had reached 62%. Excluding the Wolf God energy swallowed before, absorbing at most two more 【Divine Energy Condensates】 would allow God's Judgment to advance to Holy Spirit grade.

There were still many places where Souls of Ba were needed, such as the 【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 scroll. Su Xiao really wanted to exchange for this thing, but the price of this thing was 450 Souls of Ba.

【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 was a blade technique-type move. This thing was more than three times more expensive than the 【Archery Master Scroll】, which was enough to show its preciousness.

Su Xiao exchanging for 【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 was not to use this scroll directly. For him, that would be a waste of a heavenly treasure.

【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 was clearly a secret technique of the Tianba clan, a blade technique move precipitated through a long period of time. With Su Xiao's understanding of blade techniques, he could completely develop an ability that was more suitable for himself and not weaker than Heaven's Flow by viewing the records on this scroll, using it as inspiration, and with the assistance of the Land of All Living Things.

This was not Su Xiao being arrogant. The predecessors of the Tianba clan who developed 【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 were indeed respectable, but if he couldn't develop blade technique moves after mastering their achievements, then Su Xiao's blade techniques would have been practiced in vain.

Su Xiao's idea was that, relying on his own blade technique level, without consuming the 【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 scroll, he would rely on reading the records on it to independently develop blade technique moves that were more suitable for himself, and then sell the 【Secret Technique·Heaven's Flow】 scroll to maximize his gains.
