No matter how precious an ordinary item might be, Huo Hai would not give it a second glance. In his eyes, only things useful to him, things he could turn into fighting strength, counted as treasures. Everything else was rubbish.
As they walked, Huo Hai merely looked around without buying anything. After a while, the people around him seemed to lose patience and stopped crowding around him. "Honestly, you pass up all these good things, only to buy useless stuff." Yin Ling looked at Huo Hai speechlessly. This fellow was far too strange.
Even for a Spirit Venerable from the Giantwood Sect like Yin Ling, spirit marrow was extremely precious. She would never have more than twenty pieces on her. Otherwise, wouldn't their cultivation soar like mad?
The reason Huo Hai had obtained so much spirit marrow so easily along the way was his powerful perception, along with the various abilities of his spirit insects. They could burrow straight underground, for instance, and he could even conceal his own aura perfectly.
Anyone else, without so many special methods, would easily clash with ferocious beasts. To mine a potential mineral vein, they would first have to clear out all the ferocious beasts nearby. Spirit marrow was far more precious on the Heavenly Spirit Continent than Huo Hai had imagined. Those who could casually produce large amounts of it all had extremely powerful backers.
Huo Hai smiled faintly. "These things aren't useful to me, so naturally I'm not interested. If something were useful, that would be a different story." As he spoke, he continued walking forward.
