Inside the wooden hut, the blind old man pulled a small shelf out of the wall beside him. Divine Spirit Bone, Divine Spirit Energy Crystals, and the Archery Grandmaster Scroll were all displayed on it.
Su Xiao could confirm that the blind old man was not entirely of this world. He had probably signed a very special contract—not with Reincarnation Paradise. If he had, the blind old man would have been classified as a neutral unit on their side.
Su Xiao reached this conclusion because of the scroll-type item. Only those who possessed an imprint could use or hold scroll-type items.
Based on his experience, Su Xiao guessed that the blind old man had probably signed a Tree Contract—in other words, a contract with the Void.
This contract was very special. After signing it, one would remain in the world where they originally resided, while possessing very few authorities. By paying certain specific items as a price, they could use the Void's authority to obtain items that did not exist in their world.
For example, judging by the blind old man's current aura, he should have died of old age long ago under normal circumstances. Yet he had not. Instead, his life had been locked in place by some kind of ability, leaving him suspended between life and death.
The blind old man's clientele was extensive. He traded not only with the contractors who came here, but more often with the Tianba tribe.
The Tianba tribe had neither killed him nor captured him and looted all his belongings, which showed that he held a very special position among them.
Whether it was Divine Spirit Bone or Divine Spirit Energy Crystals, they should both have been spoils obtained from the corpses of ancient gods after the Tianba tribe killed them.
