Chapter 3354 Stupid Watch
Upon exiting the Pavilion of Treasures, Jared's group spotted a street beside the place. Usually, the place was quite empty, but it was lively at that moment.
Many cultivators were peddling their stuff on the street. Those cultivators included demons, humans, and even members of the beast race.
Of course, many buyers were there, too, since a marketplace where those three races sell stuff together was rare.
Some human cultivators were interested in the demons' merchandise while the demons were drawn to products sold by members of the beast race. Many stalls had plenty of people gathered around them. Jared had a wonderful time walking around the place with his group.
It was the most relaxing time Jared had had since stepping foot into the Ethereal Realm. This world will be so much better if all three races coexist like this everywhere. Still, I know it's not something that'll happen easily. There are only humans in the mundane world, yet conflicts arise there daily. Meanwhile, the Ethereal Realm has three races.
"You want a hundred thousand spirit coins for this broken watch? Are you crazy?"
"Have you people of the beast race never seen money before? You're asking a hundred thousand for this piece of cr*p?"
"What a greedy b*stard. To think he wants a hundred thousand spirit coins for this junk."
Suddenly, in front of a stall near the corner, mocking voices rang out.
Upon hearing that, Jared approached the stall with his group.
There, he spotted a furry man sitting before a stall, which was just a rag on the ground. The man was silent and expressionless despite being ridiculed by the crowd.
Sitting on his rag were a dozen of ordinary-looking items. One of them resembled a watch, which exuded spiritual energy.
That object was likely the one the crowd was mocking the man for.
Abruptly, a cultivator held this stupid watch and asked, "Hey, will you sell this watch for ten thousand spirit coins?"
The furry man shook his head wordlessly.
"How about twenty thousand? That's the most I can "
Once more, the furry man shook his head.
"You really think this is a treasure, huh? You'll never sell this to anyone." The cultivator tossed the watch back onto the rag and left.
Jared crouched down and held the
watch in his hand. When he did, he realized it wasn't actually a watch. It was a vivid emerald carving of a
watch.
Additionally, there were a few tiny arcane arrays etched on the watch. Even after examining the item for a while, he still couldn't figure out what those arcane arrays did.

Aside from its excellent quality and the massive spiritual energy it contained, Jared couldn't discern what was special about the watch.
The Ethereal Realm wasn't lacking in spiritual energy, so the watch was practically worthless.
Holding the watch, he glanced at the seller again. Since he's asking a hundred thousand spirit coins for it, there must be something unique about it. Perhaps it's simply because
I haven't discovered it.
Following that, he injected a thread of aura into the watch, but all he sensed was that the watch was an emerald sculpture.
Feeling disappointed, he was about to put the watch down when he noticed the hand on the watch moved.
Immediately, he pulled it back toward him and examined it closely.
"Mr. Chance, it's just an emerald sculpture. It's not valuable," said Dalton as he watched Jared study the watch. Wordlessly, Jared stared at the item, but the watch hand didn't move again.
A moment later, he turned to Cloud and Dalton. "Did you two see the watch hand moving earlier?"
