Chapter 031

Su Jiu frowned, the middle-aged man in front of him had a very unfriendly tone. At the very least, getting the family heirloom compass back from the Su family would not be as easy as he had imagined.

"Sir, I have no grudge against you. May I ask why you took the Su family's compass?" Su Jiu was also somewhat irritated. He had already been angry when he found out his belongings had been stolen. In this abandoned factory, he had to force himself to calm down, trying to figure out the middle-aged man in front of him.

However, the attitude of this unfamiliar middle-aged man made Su Jiu even more irritated.

"Initial Qi Cultivation stage, at the age of eighteen. There are almost no people who can reach this realm at your age. I will borrow the Su family's compass for a while, and I will definitely return it in the future. Remember, my name is Luo Haizhong. If you feel you have the strength to own this compass in the future, come find me in Xiangxi."

The middle-aged man did not answer Su Jiu's question but spoke to himself. After a pause, he turned and left.

"Where are you going!"

Su Jiu shouted, taking a fierce step forward with his right foot.

At that moment, the qi within Su Jiu's body surged instantly, and an invisible wave advanced along the ground of the abandoned factory.

"Ah!" The middle-aged man was surprised and leaped to the side.

The ground where the middle-aged man had just stood shattered instantly, as if struck by a massive hammer.

"You already know how to use the earth's qi?" The middle-aged man said in surprise.

"I know more than that." Su Jiu said fiercely. Since they had already come to blows, there was no need to be polite.

The family heirloom compass was of great significance to Su Jiu and could not fall into the hands of others. This was also the main reason why he was anxious when he first learned the compass was missing.

Moreover, from the middle-aged man's words, Su Jiu had a slight suspicion that the compass must have some secret. Otherwise, the man would not have gone to such lengths to investigate him, and Su Jiu himself did not know this secret.

All of this happened in an instant. Hearing the middle-aged man's surprise, Su Jiu charged forward again. The qi within his body surged, covering his entire body. In that moment, Su Jiu's strength greatly increased, and he felt different.

Su Jiu threw a punch directly at the middle-aged man.

"External qi projection? To reach external qi projection at the Initial Qi Cultivation stage, you are truly a genius." The middle-aged man's surprise came again as he lightly avoided Su Jiu's attack.

At that moment, Su Jiu did not pay attention to the middle-aged man's words. The use of earth's qi and external qi projection were all cultivation techniques recorded in the golden compass in his mind.

Feng Shui masters can predict one's future and also determine life and death through martial arts.

Throughout history, feng shui masters have always been a very mysterious profession. As for the fortune-tellers on the street today, they only know a little bit and are just pretending to be experts.

In a blink, Su Jiu had already attacked several times, and he was becoming more and more shocked.

Su Jiu was very clear that at the age of eighteen, he had entered the Qi Cultivation stage and reached the level of a feng shui master. He knew that his cultivation was among the best among his peers.

Not to mention skills and knowledge, his cultivation alone could overwhelm many people.

Especially after obtaining the golden compass, the things he cultivated were even more surprising.

But now, after several rounds of combat with the middle-aged man, Su Jiu had not even touched the man's clothes.

At this point, Su Jiu naturally understood where the initial sense of danger had come from.

The middle-aged man, Luo Haizhong, was definitely not at the Initial Qi Cultivation stage but at least at the Later Qi Cultivation stage.

Su Jiu was very clear about this. If the man was at the Initial Qi Cultivation stage, he could completely overwhelm him. Even at the Mid Qi Cultivation stage, he would not be afraid. But at the Later Qi Cultivation stage, the consequences were clear to Su Jiu.

After several rounds of combat, Luo Haizhong leaped back and said with a smile.

"Come, come, come, little Su, let me see what other tricks you have!"

Su Jiu, who had temporarily disengaged from the fight, calmed down. He was no longer as impulsive as before.

As a feng shui master, although he had combat abilities surpassing ordinary people, physical fights were basically not something he would engage in. This time, Su Jiu was angry because the family heirloom was of great importance to him.

Su Jiu was very clear that the abilities of a feng shui master were more focused on feng shui, and martial arts were only for strengthening the body. This is why, in the eyes of the world, feng shui masters always appeared as enlightened immortals.

If the focus was on combat, there would be no difference from martial artists.

Understanding this, Su Jiu's mind calmed down.

He took a deep breath.

Looking at Luo Haizhong, he took out a set of talismans from his pocket. These were the first-level talismans he had drawn during his time at Xiang University.

Why is someone only called a feng shui master after entering the Qi Cultivation stage? Because only at this stage does one have the ability to draw talismans.

Talismans are divided into several levels, and first-level talismans are the most basic.

Although they are the most basic, it does not mean that one can draw talismans just by entering the Qi Cultivation stage. The Qi Cultivation stage is only the basic condition for drawing talismans.

As a feng shui master, there are very strict conditions. The feng shui masters in today's society do not meet the actual standards. Su Jiu, at this point, was comparing everything to the content recorded in the golden compass in his mind.

Naturally, the requirements were higher.

These are side notes, let's not talk about them for now.

"Talismans? Little Su, you are becoming more and more surprising to me." The middle-aged man's expression changed, and the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a serious look.

"Indeed, they are talismans. I wonder how many you can handle, Senior." Su Jiu calmly responded to Luo Haizhong's question, with a slight smile on his face.

Indeed, feng shui masters at the Qi Cultivation stage do not necessarily know how to draw talismans. Moreover, in today's society, the drawing of talismans is very rare, let alone their application.

Talismans come in many types and are generally used in feng shui setups. However, any technique can be used for attack.

Talismans are no exception. The Qi Attraction Talisman Su Jiu used in the second teaching building was a relatively common one, and its effects are well-known.

That was just an auxiliary talisman. The effects of attack talismans are even greater, which is why Luo Haizhong's expression changed.

Su Jiu was very clear that these talismans came from the content recorded in the golden compass in his mind, and they were mostly attack techniques.
