Dragon-Seeking Gold-Finding Art: Secrets of the Hu Family

"Dou's sister's paramour... late husband had some real backing."

Fang Shu could not help muttering under his breath.

The booklet hidden in the corpse's arms recorded a spell called the Dragon-Seeking Gold-Finding Art, a secret feng shui technique.

According to the booklet, this art was one of the introductory inheritances for immortal sect formation masters. Once learned, it allowed one to seek dragons and read qi, search for gold and inspect acupoints. It made it easier to examine the courses of mineral veins, earth veins, spirit veins, and all manner of terrain, helping one choose suitable places to build a home, dig pits and graves, refine pills, forge artifacts, and more.

What was more unusual was that although this secret art was a spell filled with cryptic passages, exceptionally gifted mortals could practice it before entering the Dao, without fearing injury or death.

That was because this art placed great emphasis on comprehension.

With even a slight grasp of it, a practitioner could flourish in the mortal world, reading graves and locating acupoints for princes and aristocratic families, becoming an honored guest.

With a little more promise, a practitioner could enter immortal markets and seek out mineral veins and spirit veins for immortals. It counted as a skill to one's name, enough to support a family.

And if one completely mastered this feng shui secret art, it meant the practitioner had the talent to become a formation master. Upon joining an immortal sect, one could study in the Divination Arts Department and follow the path of formation masters!

As Fang Shu pondered this, the astonishment in his eyes deepened.

He truly had not expected Dou Sufu's late husband, who had died here so easily, to possess such a secret art. An ancestor of his had actually been a formation master!
