"For a cultivator to use a talisman to determine their location, they first need to know their own position."
"Next, they must survey the terrain and landforms, combining that with information about the feng shui to deduce a direction. But right now, I can do neither."
Everyone grew anxious again, but Lin Ke remained calm and immediately summoned the Treasurelight Talisman.
