"We must find a way to improve our combat effectiveness." Chen Xiao said solemnly.

Jing Hui also wanted the two of them to improve their combat power, so he said with a wry smile: "There's no way I can let you retreat and practice at this moment."

Chen Xiao bit his lip and whispered, "I have a way to quickly improve my cultivation. This can only be done by practicing Feng Shui."

Jing Hui was not happy after hearing this, but showed a solemn expression, "Usually, rapid improvement of cultivation is accompanied by great disadvantages and risks. Chen Xiao, I would rather you not take this risk, otherwise I will not have the face to meet Fellow Daoist Xi again."

Chen Xiao knew that Jing Hui would try her best to protect the two of them, not only because of chivalry, but also because of Xi Yunting.

After all, the Jin Chan Sect and the Chong Xuan Sect were both in the Luochen Great Heaven Realm, and he and Xi Yunting were the most respected disciples in their respective sects, so they would see each other every day.

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Master, you are worrying too much. This method will not cause any disadvantages, and there is no risk. This is due to the characteristics of the practice. What is absorbed is the energy of the earth veins." After a pause, Chen Xiao frowned, "However, there are also difficulties, that is, finding a suitable Feng Shui treasure land."

The Atlas of Shenzhou is just like the Heavenly Realm World, with plenty of Feng Shui treasures waiting for Chen Xiao to discover.

However, just like the problem encountered in the heavenly world, the place is too large, and the area where people live and move only accounts for a small part of it, and many areas are sparsely populated.

To conduct a survey, he had to measure the land on foot, which took a lot of time, and what he needed most now was time.

It would be nice if his elder brother was by his side, Chen Xiao thought.

The aura that Xi Yunting possesses, once it appears near a Feng Shui treasure land, will provoke a confrontation with the dragon vein aura, which is the best and most convenient way of detection.

When Chen Xiao crossed the area where ferocious beasts lived, he discovered many places with good feng shui. However, such places often had ferocious beasts lurking, so he did not dare to go there rashly.

It’s a pity that he never had the chance to achieve the purpose of coming to the Shenzhou Atlas this time. If he could have a flying bird as a soul beast and use its flying talent to conduct aerial reconnaissance, it would be faster.

Think about the golden jade carving, the black crane, and then think about the white phoenix which is slightly inferior to the other two. Not only did he fail to get any of them, but he also had to feed one more mouth to feed.

Looking at Xiao Ba who was sleeping with his legs spread out on his thighs, Chen Xiao smiled and reached out to gently stroke its soft little belly.

Fortunately, Xiao Ba is very strong-willed and never gets scared when encountering unexpected situations. When he is fighting, put it aside and don't run into the battle area.

Apart from eating a little too much, Xiao Ba really is a relief for him. He is so well-behaved and lovable that he even feels reluctant to release him back into the wild in the future.

Jinghui felt speechless when she saw Chen Xiao saying this and touching the lamb.

He had never seen anyone raising a pet the same way as raising a child. Even for mortals raising children, it was rare to see them touching the pet from time to time like he did.

"As long as you are confident." Jing Hui said softly. Both of them spoke in low voices because Liu Lang was lying on a blanket not far away and was sleeping soundly. After he lost his cultivation, it was difficult for him to maintain his energy, and even his recovery after the battle was much slower.

Chen Xiao glanced at Liu Lang, who was not affected by them at all, and took out the new compass with the magnetic needle, and gradually an idea came to his mind.

"If possible, I would like to try to see if I can make Liu Lang more capable of protecting himself." When the fight started, Chen Xiao really didn't have time to cast a protective amulet for Liu Lang, and Liu Lang was in danger several times.

The next morning, when Chen Xiao woke up, the first thing he did was to set up a small table, sit upright and use his mental power to draw Yuanqi paper talismans.

This was not the first time that Liu Lang and Jing Hui had seen this. These days, as long as conditions permitted in the early morning, Chen Xiao would draw talismans.

Liu Lang looked at Chen Xiao with a solemn expression, his body straight, his wrist suspended, drawing talismans on paper with such force that it could penetrate the back of the paper. He felt dizzy.

He felt that the paper talisman drawn by Chen Xiao had a kind of precious light, which made him feel very mysterious. It was like the first time he came into contact with immortal cultivation, which aroused his yearning.

"You are very interested in drawing talismans. Do you want to learn?" A voice sounded, bringing Liu Lang back to his senses.

Liu Lang turned his head and looked at Jing Hui, smiled bitterly and said: "My spiritual roots are destroyed, and I can't cultivate true essence. Even if I am interested in drawing talismans, I can't learn it."

Jing Hui did not comment, and watched Chen Xiao's pen move with flying dragons and phoenixes. "Well, nothing is absolute in the world, this is not necessarily true."

Liu Lang turned back and saw Chen Xiao had already finished another one. He gently picked up the talisman paper and put it aside to dry. Chen Xiao was so focused on drawing the talisman that he couldn't hear them talking at all.

Even so, Liu Lang subconsciously lowered his voice. He jokingly said, "Even if I want to learn it, how can I easily pass on this unique skill to others?"

Jing Hui turned to him and said seriously: "According to Chen Xiao, he had tested his spiritual roots before and found that he did not have the talent for cultivation. It was only after learning this Feng Shui technique that he had the opportunity to cultivate immortality."

Liu Lang's eyes moved and his heartbeat gradually quickened. He hesitated and said in disbelief: "...What do you mean?"

Jing Hui said calmly, "Since someone who originally had no talent for cultivation can learn this Feng Shui cultivation method, maybe you can too. What's more, you have previous cultivation experience and a foundation. Compared to Chen Xiao, who is trying to figure it out from scratch without any reference, it's easier to get results with someone's guidance."

Liu Lang's breathing was a little rapid, and he looked at Jing Hui with shining eyes.

"Last night, Chen Xiao told me that he wanted you to give it a try and learn Feng Shui from him. If you are interested, you can formally become his disciple." Jing Hui said.

Liu Lang's face slowly turned red with excitement, but because Chen Xiao was still drawing talismans, he suppressed his excitement and ecstasy and stood there silently.

After watching his performance, Jing Hui nodded secretly. He was a patient man, and Chen Xiao would not lose out by accepting such a disciple.

Chen Xiao waited until the sun rose before he put down his brush. He packed up his painting materials and arranged his utensils. He cleaned his brush with clean water and hung it on the brush stand to dry.

After checking everything one by one and making sure there were no wasted paper talismans, he put everything away.

He stood up, looked at Liu Lang's excited eyes and smiled, "Master Jinghui has told you everything, right?" Liu Lang nodded, "Your situation is different from mine, but I think it should be feasible. It's just that using this technique to cultivate immortality is more complicated, and you have to pay more in the early stage, so the results may be slow, so you have to be mentally prepared."

This was not a problem for Liu Lang at all. Which cultivation method did not require a lot of time and energy when first practicing it?

Besides, for someone like him whose spiritual roots were destroyed to be able to embark on the path of immortality again was already extremely lucky. Not to mention that the effort was high and the results were slow, even if he was asked to go through mountains of swords and rivers of oil, he would never frown.

Liu Lang bit his cheeks tightly, afraid that he would choke and sob. He was unable to speak, so he nodded vigorously to show that everything was fine.

Seeing his eyes were red, Chen Xiao, who was not used to such scenes, felt a little uncomfortable. So far, no matter if it was a nominal apprentice or Shen Yanxing who really wanted to become his disciple, they all took the initiative to ask him to learn Feng Shui. This was the first time that he took the initiative to teach someone.

Liu Lang is an excellent person, and will be of great help in establishing a sect in the future. However, Chen Xiao didn't know whether he was interested in Feng Shui or not, and was worried that he just wanted to switch to spiritual practice, so he asked Jing Hui to help him convince him.

Even if he gave up learning Feng Shui and turned to spiritual practice later, it didn't matter. Now, as long as he could improve his self-preservation and combat capabilities, Chen Xiao would be satisfied.

Chen Xiao cleared his throat and asked Liu Lang: "Would you like to learn Feng Shui from me?"

Liu Lang came to Shenzhou Atlas to look for that vague and hopeless opportunity. To transform from a soldier to a spiritual practitioner is basically risking his life, and the chance of success is not high.

Chen Xiao was willing to teach him a method that would allow him to cultivate immortality again without having to use his weapons, so Liu Lang was naturally willing to do so.

Without hesitation, he bowed to Chen Xiao and said, "Disciple Liu Lang, I am willing to be your disciple and learn the martial arts from you. From now on, you must obey the teachings and abide by the sect rules. If you violate them, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"

Chen Xiao looked at Jing Hui in surprise. This was different from what he said! He had told Jing Hui before that even if he taught Liu Lang Feng Shui, he didn't need him to become his disciple.

After all, they were friends, and comrades who had been through life and death together. Chen Xiao felt awkward about changing from an equal friendship to a master-disciple relationship, and he was also afraid that Liu Lang would feel uncomfortable.

Although they are not master and disciple, Chen Xiao will definitely impart the relevant knowledge seriously.

Jing Hui said, "Chen Xiao, I understand what you mean. You are afraid that you will be uncomfortable with each other. But don't forget that in the world of immortal cultivation, the master-disciple relationship is very important. If he is just an independent cultivator, it would be fine. But if Liu Lang learns the immortal cultivation method from you but does not become your disciple, he will definitely attract criticism in the future. Besides, if you accept him, Liu Lang will be even more uneasy."

Liu Lang raised his head and said devoutly, "Yes, please accept me as your disciple. I am willing to respect you as my master and serve you as a disciple from now on."

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "Liu Lang, there's really no need to do this. Even if you don't want to become my disciple, I will still teach you. We can still be friends, isn't that good?"

Liu Lang said seriously: "This is disrespectful to you. Since you taught me the way to cultivate immortality, you are my master. I cannot behave in such a disrespectful way."

Jing Hui knew Chen Xiao's dilemma, and he advised: "Chen Xiao, you are both a teacher and a friend. Does this friendship cease to exist if there is a title or not? But if there is no title, Liu Lang's identity will always be unjustified, which will be detrimental to his future. If he becomes an independent teacher in the future, without a master, he will be inferior to the people of the sect."

Chen Xiao frowned, he didn't expect there would be such an impact.

Liu Lang looked at Chen Xiao, waiting for his decision. He was originally a casual cultivator, so he had naturally suffered in this regard. Having a master and not having a master were completely different situations.

After thinking for a while, Chen Xiao said, "If you become my disciple, you will have a senior brother ahead of you, so you can only be the second. Let me make it clear first, your senior brother is a royal descendant who has no spiritual talent. He is much younger than you, about the same age as me."

Liu Lang was overjoyed and said quickly: "Disciple is willing to respect Senior Brother as an elder and will never neglect him because of age or other reasons!"

Chen Xiao exhaled slowly and nodded, "Okay, I'll take you in as my second disciple." Seeing that Liu Lang was about to kowtow, Chen Xiao hurriedly stopped him, "But don't become my disciple yet. Wait until your senior brother enters the sect, then you can kowtow. For now, you can just call me teacher like him. Get up."

Liu Lang was surprised, but quickly stood up and obeyed, "Yes, disciple understands."
