Arriving at the large pit at the construction site, Master Long looked around his surroundings, seemingly deep in thought.

In the day, the bright energy was strong, but the dark energy weakened. If there weren’t remnant dark energy lurking in the shadows, there wouldn’t appear to be anything amiss here.

Therefore, Master Long paced around the pit, wearing a particularly odd expression on his face.

The arrangement of the large pit hinted at the involvement of the Eight Trigram. However, the metal nails had been ripped off and the ground was damaged. He couldn’t tell properly what the actual layout was.

It could be a battle array tactic of the Eight Trigram or a sealing technique.

Without knowing who had set up such a layout, he would only be capturing the wrong person.

After all, he couldn’t simply make a wild guess about what the layout actually was. If he were to make a mistake, it would cost him a lot.

After muttering to himself irresolutely, a glint flashed across Master Long’s eyes. Looking at Master Chen, who was standing around without contributing to the situation, Master Long chuckled. “Master Chen, have you uncovered anything else?”

Chen Hao replied, “No.”

Master Long was rendered speechless.

You answered my question straight away… Are you taking me for a fool?

Humph, he lacks the proper knowledge and skills, anyway. Perhaps he really won’t be able to help at all and is merely here to scam money.

A look of disdain flashed across Master Long’s eyes and he began to feel conflicted.

He initially had thought that this was merely a place where masses of dark energy gathered. He assumed that he could just cast some simple spells to seal the dark energy or gather the energies of the earth to dispel the dark energies.

Little did he expect things to go beyond his control. A large hole had already been dug out of this paranormal place, and the flow of energies through the ground had already been disrupted. No dark energy should be able to survive here. However, it remained here and was even getting worse. There was clearly some other issue.

Glancing around, Master Long said, “Let’s go up the mountains to take a look.”

They were probably missing the big picture. If they were to widen their fields of vision, they might be able to find some clues and grasp something.

Chen Hao chuckled and didn’t answer him. He simply followed after Master Long, as though he was following a bustling scene. After all, he wasn’t skilled in Feng Shui and there wasn’t a need for him to study the surroundings. With the expert around, he naturally should take the lead.

After they climbed to the peak from a small path, it was a good vantage point and they could see everything within ten miles.

As Master Long took a look, he indeed gained some insights.

The peak of Stream Mountain wasn’t obvious, but the water flowed in all directions, injecting the place with invigorating energy.

The flowing waters made the mountain beautiful, and with beauty came life.

The peaks of the mountain weren’t prominent. As the water meandered down the peaks, the streams appeared like a crouching dragon. If they were in the olden times, this mountain range would precisely be a blessed land for cultivation.

Yes, a blessed land!

Master Long’s eyes lit up. As though he was deep in thought, he studied the ridges of the mountains. Recalling everything he had learned about Feng Shui, he identified the node of the ley line where the energies converged.
