399 I dare to have such a daydream
Now that the grandfather and grandson have talked to this point, Chu Wangtian knows that there is no need to hide it any longer.
He motioned for Chu Linfeng to look at the jade ring in his hand that he had personally handed to him.
Chu Linfeng lowered his head in confusion and stared for a moment. He actually saw the shadow of an Ouroboros flash by in the warm green jade.
He was shocked: "Grandfather, is this the key? Why is it different from the one I saw when I was a child?"
"I thought that appearance was too conspicuous, so I changed its appearance." Chu Wangtian took Chu Linfeng's hand and cut his fingers with his spiritual power.
Blood from the fingertips dripped onto the jade ring, and a snake shadow swam inside the ring.
In a burst of green and brown light, the jade ring disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a bronze key.
The end of the key was carved with a snake connected head to tail, exactly the same as the one in Chu Linfeng's childhood memory.
Chu Linfeng took it in his hand and examined it carefully, but he could not sense any strange power from it. He was very confused: "Qiongqi said that this was the legacy of a great immortal. How come I can't feel even a trace of spiritual power?"
Chu Wangtian snorted: "I can't feel the spiritual power of your little sister either."
Chu Linfeng suddenly understood: "Is this the characteristic of a Mahayana cultivator?"
"Who knows?" Chu Wangtian played with the Ouroboros bronze key in his hand. "Since Qiongqi told you about the existence of this thing, you should also know that there is a door leading to the Demon Realm in the Spirit Demon Realm. You want to go to the Demon Realm through this door, right?"
Chu Linfeng nodded and asked expectantly, "Do you know how to use this key?"
Chu Wangtian sneered: "If I knew, I would have used the key to go to the Demon Realm to check the situation." After a pause, he added, "I took this thing to the Demon Realm a long time ago, and I didn't find the so-called 'back door' at all, and nothing unusual happened."
Chu Wangtian once suspected that the key was a fake. He wanted to destroy it in anger, but he found that the key was extremely hard and his spiritual power in the Tribulation Period could not leave any mark on it.
Chu Wangtian was then certain that this Ouroboros Key was extraordinary. Even though he didn't know how to use it, he still kept it away properly.
Considering the specialness of Jiang Xin and Jiang Xiao, Chu Wangtian handed the key to Chu Linfeng: "This was originally intended for your father. Since you can use it, I'll leave it with you first. However, are you sure Jiang Xin can enter the realm of spirits and demons safely?"
Chu Linfeng nodded and gave an example to reassure Chu Wangtian: "Junior Sister has a cultivation dog. It is from the same origin as the evil demons in the Spirit Demon Realm, but it is very human."
As a cultivator who had guarded the realm of spirits and demons, Chu Wangtian could not imagine that those evil demons who only knew how to kill could understand human nature: "How human are they?"
Chu Linfeng: "Xiu Gou is currently studying at the academy at the foot of the Tianshui Sect mountain, and his grades are pretty good."
Chu Wangtian: “???”
"Do dogs from your Tianshui Sect also want to study?"
"In order to avoid being discovered while skipping school, the junior sister molded Xiu Gou into her own image and asked him to study in her place." Chu Linfeng had just remembered this and silently sympathized with Xiu Gou.
Chu Wangtian resisted the urge to look down at Jiang Xin. He was puzzled by Chu Linfeng's choice of words: "What do you mean by 'molded into your own image'?"
He knew it meant "become like oneself", but he felt that the word "pinch" was a little wrong.
"The evil demons in the Spirit Demon Realm are all made of the mist there, and they can be molded like mud. At first, Master's Wife thought that Xiu Dog was an evil demon that escaped with them, and was afraid that it would hurt Junior Sister, so she blew it up. Junior Sister was reluctant to part with Xiu Dog, so she gathered the thin mist that remained in the house without telling Master's Wife, and molded it into Xiu Dog again."
Chu Linfeng used gestures to recount the incident that had shocked him so much.
Chu Wangtian was stunned.
He had never heard that the monsters in the realm of spirits and demons could ever be tamed.
No, it's not taming, it's more like giving it a completely different new life.
"So when you say 'human nature', do you mean that this evil demon - Xiu Gou has emotions?" Chu Wangtian asked.
Chu Linfeng nodded: "It is still a bully who relies on others' power and is greedy for money and profit."
That's quite human.
Chu Wangtian planned to go to the foot of Tianshui Sect in front of the Demon Realm to see this human-like dog: "Linfeng, I can't control those two little ancestors, but you are not allowed to go to the realm of spirits and demons."
Chu Linfeng felt that it was not a big problem: "With Junior Sister protecting me, I will be fine."
“No one knows what the situation is in the center of the Spirit Demon Realm. You are only in the Golden Core Stage and cannot withstand the impact of the power there. This is not your responsibility.” Chu Wangtian said as he placed a restriction on Chu Linfeng, not allowing him to refute the matter again.
Chu Linfeng had no choice but to look down at the Ouroboros Key in his hand and ask, "How did you get this key?"
"I picked it up." Chu Wangtian said.
Chu Linfeng was surprised: "So simple?"
Chu Wangtian looked nostalgic as he recalled the past: "At that time, I was training with a Qiongqi in a secret realm, where it was said that there were treasures left by the Moon Clan. We found nothing in the secret realm, and when we left, we somehow entered the realm of spirits and demons, and happened to see the seal completed."
"This matter has been bothering me all these years, until you mentioned your experience in the secret realm of the Moon Clan, and then I figured it out."
"I'm afraid the Moon Clan treasure in that secret realm is the time turbulence left here, which sent me and Qiongqi to the moment when the seal of the spirit demon was completed."
"At that time, we both saw the outline of a door vaguely above the seal, and the key flew out of this door."
"I was quick and got the key first. Old Qiongqi fought with me for it, and during the fight, we both heard a young man's voice."
"He said: If it's sealed, why leave a back door? Sooner or later, I will break the seal and return to the Tiancheng Spirit Realm."
The "old Qiongqi" mentioned by Chu Wangtian was not the Qiongqi that sealed itself in Ning Yao's body, but the one before it, who had already died.
Chu Wangtian and Lao Qiongqi were just casual acquaintances and were wary of each other, and the issue of the key made their relationship even more unpleasant.
After leaving the secret realm, Chu Wangtian thought that countless troubles would come to him, but he did not expect that everything would be safe and sound.
Old Qiongqi did not make this matter known to everyone, but only told his descendants, which made Chu Wangtian feel very surprised.
Although it has not been told to anyone over the years, the loans the Chu family has given to the Qiongqi tribe have always been very favorable. This is to thank Chu Wangtian for keeping the matter a secret.
"You stole this, right?" Chu Linfeng asked.
Chu Wangtian rolled his eyes at him and said, "It fell in front of me, so of course I picked it up. Do you think I stole it from Qiongqi? Does the key belong to Qiongqi?"
Chu Linfeng: "...Okay."
Considering the effect of the seal of the Spirit Demon Realm, Chu Linfeng leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Grandfather, is the voice you heard similar to the voice of my junior brother?"
Chu Wangtian knew what he was thinking, and he had been thinking about it too: "The voices of an adult man and a child are very different, but now that I know this person's identity, the more I think about it, the more I feel that the two voices are similar."
The grandparents and grandchildren looked at each other, and then looked at the key at the same time.
"Tell me why Immortal Master Mingchen left this key behind?" Chu Wangtian asked.
Chu Linfeng thought about it and said seriously: "It should be a prophecy that we are going to the demon world, and it was left for me specially."
Chu Wangtian: “…”
After the eldest grandson joined the Tianshui Sect, he not only became more shameless, but also more courageous, and even dared to have such daydreams.
