"As fellow cultivators, I'll tell you more. Anyway, it's not a secret anymore. Nowadays, it's not only us Great Tang that has this disaster, but also other places in Eastern Continent of Superior Divinity. It's not peaceful. There are even rumors that Heaven and Earth Calamity may come to the world in the near future." Lu Huaming hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said.

"Heaven and Earth Calamity? Fellow Daoist, can you give me more details?" Shen Luo was shocked and asked hurriedly.

He clearly remembered that in his dream not long ago, Yu Yan and his son had mentioned the great disaster of Demon Creatures Swallow Heaven.

"The common people don't know about this matter yet, but Great Tang has had rumors about it in some secret places. Not many people originally believed this, but as some practicing sects that rarely interfere in secular affairs began to pay attention to this matter, some even directly sent disciples down the mountain, not knowing whether they wanted to investigate the matter or not, which made this rumor become more and more confusing." Lu Huaming touched his chin and said in deep thought.

Shen Luo became silent after hearing this. After a moment, he suddenly asked:

"Where do fellow Daoists come from? Ordinary immortal cultivators shouldn't know these things so clearly, right?"

Lu Huaming was suffocated when he heard this, but immediately smiled, took off a palm-sized badge from his waist, handed it over, and said:

"Shen Dao has a good eye! In this case, I won't hide it from you. Fellow Daoist, please take a look."

Shen Luo casually took the token and examined it in the moonlight. He found that this thing was quite heavy and did not seem to be made of ordinary copper or iron. One side was engraved with the pattern of two closed doors, and the other side was engraved with a seal with the four characters "Great Tang Imperial" written on it.

"How disrespectful! It turns out that fellow Daoist is a member of the government. In this case, it is normal for him to know so many things." Shen Luo was shocked and handed the badge back.

"Right now, the imperial court is in need of a large number of talented people. Fellow Daoist Shen is young and already has good water skills. Since there is no sect bondage, why not join the government? I am willing to introduce you to fellow Daoist." Lu Huaming said while tying the waist badge back to his waist loop.

"Fellow Daoist, that's ridiculous. I'm just getting started with water magic. How can I have such qualifications?" Shen Luo shook his head repeatedly.

Now that he has not even solved the mysterious Jade Pillow matter, how can he dare to provoke monsters and monsters with his current meager Magic Power. He has truly seen the horror of these things in his dream. In reality, he only has one life, and it is not like in a dream where he can be resurrected multiple times.

"Young Daoist Shen, don't be too humble. If you join the imperial court, there will be many benefits. Not only will you avoid a lot of worldly troubles, but you will also get more resource support. At the same time, you can also do your part to protect the Great Tang people. Isn't it a matter of killing two birds with one stone?" Lu Huaming smiled and continued to persuade.

"Thanks to Fellow Daoist Lu, let's wait until Magic Power improves before considering this matter." Shen Luo declined politely.

Seeing this, Lu Huaming stopped trying to persuade and asked instead:

"Then we'll talk about it later. I just have an unkind request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"

"Fellow Daoist, please speak." Shen Luo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party no longer insisted.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, can you teach the Treading Water Spell you just performed to me?" Lu Huaming hesitated for a moment and then said something that surprised Shen Luo.

"This..." Shen Luo subconsciously refused.

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist, I'm not asking you to teach all the oral techniques of this technique, just tread water on some of the techniques. As long as you are willing to teach me, I am willing to repay you with a heavy gift." Seeing this, Lu Huaming quickly added.

"Didn't Fellow Daoist Lu say before that he doesn't study water techniques intensively, so why are he so interested in this method of treading water?" Shen Luo couldn't help but asked in confusion.

"Although I don't know the water method, I can see that the method of treading water by fellow Daoist Treading Water Technique is extremely sophisticated. If you can master one or two, it will definitely be useful for traveling in various water bodies in the future." Lu Huaming scratched the back of his head and said with a smile.

"Although I am not bound by the sect and there is no rule that the law should not be spread to others, but this method of treading water..." Shen Luo hesitated a little

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist, as long as you are willing to teach this method, I am willing to give you something in exchange." Seeing this, Lu Huaming said clearly.

"Oh, I wonder what it is?" Shen Luo raised his eyebrows.

"Fellow Daoist, please take a look." Lu Huaming said, reached into his arms, took out a small gray-white fork with a yellow paper talisman on it, and shook it at Shen Luo.

The fork was only a foot long and looked very similar to a common two-pointed harpoon, but it looked much more delicate. It had a normal-sized yellow paper talisman attached around the handle, which turned out to be a Talisman Artifact.

"How is it, Fellow Daoist Shen, are you satisfied?" Lu Huaming saw Shen Luo's eyes never leaving the little fork, and asked with a smile.

"Friend Lu Dao is so generous, how could I refuse?" This time, Shen Luo didn't hesitate at all.
