Huo Hai carefully examined the spirit vein without digging it out immediately. Any place capable of nurturing space-severing stone was anything but ordinary, and unexpected changes could easily occur.
Besides, a peculiar place that could gather so much God-Devouring Mist was hardly normal. Huo Hai cautiously probed downward along the spirit vein. After an unknown stretch of time, he gradually discovered that there were indeed World-Spirit Stones surrounding the strange space-severing stone-more than twenty of them.
For an ordinary person, this would have been an enormous fortune. Even for a Spirit Venerable expert, it was a handsome haul. Huo Hai left them untouched and continued probing downward, steadily investigating everything.

"How strange. This Spirit Stone Vein is actually bound tightly to an earth vein." Huo Hai had discovered something bizarre. Without his exceptionally powerful spiritual perception, he would never have detected what was going on.
