Chen Fei sat in the courtyard of the Primordial Sword Sect, where there was a straw mat. During his usual practice sessions, he would often sit on it.
Chen Fei's mat was woven from spiritual herbs and had the modest ability to absorb and gather spiritual energy passively. Its effects were not particularly strong, but one could say it was better than nothing.
Moreover, the mat had a calming effect on the mind, though not particularly potent, it was still better than having none at all.
Mats like this were possessed by every cultivator in the Primordial Sword Sect who had reached a certain level of cultivation. Since they were made from common spiritual herbs, they weren't considered very valuable.
However, their effects were still noticeable over time.
Since they weren't expensive, it made sense to have one on hand; after all, it wouldn't hurt.
