When Song Jinnian saw that the two of them were looking at him expectantly, he nodded with satisfaction and took out a ring-shaped object from his storage bag.
"Hehe, look, brothers! This is the spiritual weapon I mentioned that can fool people."
Gu Qingze looked at it carefully. The ring was inlaid with some unknown shiny crystals.
He observed for a while and found that he could not find any information about the relevant spiritual weapon in his mind.
So, based on Song Jinnian's previous words, he casually said a possibility.
"Brother Jinnian, could this spiritual weapon be able to temporarily change a person's gender?"
Before Song Jinnian could explain, Chu Lingxiao spoke first.
"Qingze, although I don't know much about spiritual weapons, I think the spiritual weapon in Jinnian's hand is not for gender change."
"After all, gender and spiritual roots are both extremely important to those who cultivate immortality. It's no exaggeration to say that gender is even more crucial."
"If one rashly and forcefully changes gender, even for a short period, all previous cultivation will most likely suffer numerous deviations and errors. Even more seriously, the cultivation accumulated through countless hardships might be completely dissipated and lost like quicksand."
"So, if Brother Jinnian was planning this operation for us, there's no way he would use a spiritual weapon like that. Brother Jinnian, am I right?"
Chu Lingxiao smiled and shifted his gaze to Song Jinnian.
"Wow! Brother Ling Xiao's guess is completely correct. He's really smart!"
In fact, Song Jinnian's eyes were bright and full of sincerity.
Gu Qingze on the side also nodded, indicating that he understood.
He was just expanding his own thoughts and using the wrong answer to quickly elicit Song Jinnian's explanation.
However, it was a good experience to hear Ling Xiao explain it to me in such detail.
"My two brothers, this spiritual weapon in my hand was made by the genius weapon refiner Mihun from the demon world. It is called the Qiling Huanmeng Half Moon Ring."
"What a long name! The designer must have put a lot of effort into it."
Chu Lingxiao noticed that Song Jinnian paused deliberately and made a comment in response.
"Well, this is a gift the designer gave me during my 100-day party."
There was a hint of boasting in Song Jinnian's words, like a child who had received "candy".
"Once you use the Magical Dream Half Moon Ring, you can confuse the people around you and make them see what you want them to see."
"So powerful? What if the other party's cultivation is extremely powerful?"
Gu Qingze asked seriously, spiritual weapons generally have restrictions on use. Some of the restrictions are the user's cultivation level, and some are the restrictions on the spiritual weapon itself.
"This is the power of the Qiling Huanmeng Half Moon Ring. As Uncle Miehun's masterpiece, this spiritual weapon's effectiveness won't diminish due to the user's weak cultivation. Therefore, cultivators who aren't at the Mahayana stage or above won't be able to detect it."
Song Jinnian smiled embarrassedly halfway through his speech.
"...When creating an illusion, the Qiling Huanmeng Half Moon Ring requires a relatively high level of mental energy. But it's okay. It's just a simple illusion, similar to a sleight of hand. It doesn't consume much mental energy."
"Well, thank you, Brother Jinnian, for taking out such a good spiritual weapon to help us complete the mission. By the way, how do we use this spiritual weapon?"
Gu Qingze thanked him and raised his doubts.
After all, this ring must not be worn on the body, otherwise it will be very conspicuous. If it only confuses a few monsters, it will be fine, but if it is noticed by many monsters, what should be done if an accident occurs?
"It's simple. All the user has to do is eat it."
Song Jinnian said with a relaxed look.
"Eat...eat it?"
Gu Qingze was shocked after hearing this. He estimated the diameter of the ring and then calculated the diameter of his throat, and his Adam's apple moved up and down unconsciously.
No, no, it's scary just thinking about it. And even if I expand my throat ten times, it's impossible to swallow it through my mouth. It will kill me, right?
Although Chu Lingxiao was a little surprised when he heard Song Jinnian's words, he then thought of something, looked at Song Jinnian with a smile, and asked.
"Is there any way to shrink this circle?"
When Gu Qingze heard the new idea proposed by Ling Xiao, he also looked at Song Jinnian expectantly.
"No, and why do we need to shrink the Qilinghuanmeng Half Moon Ring?"
Song Jinnian looked confused.
Now Chu Lingxiao was no longer calm.
He remembered that Song Jinnian had just introduced that the maker of this ring was his uncle.
It's known that Song Jinnian is a demon, so his uncle is most likely also a demon. If we consider the swallowing problem based on the prototypes of most demon beasts, then the design is indeed very good...
Looking at the horrified expressions on Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao's faces, Song Jinnian became even more confused.
"Well...um...brothers, are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Qingze came back to his senses and shook his head. "I'm not feeling unwell. Ling Xiao and I are both fine. Thank you, brother Jinnian, for your concern."
"You're welcome, you're welcome. Humans are very delicate and need more care."
Gu Qingze ignored the outrageous word "delicate" and asked seriously.
"Brother Jinnian, how can I eat this ring?"
If the method given by Song Jinnian is not suitable for him and Ling Xiao, then think of other ways.
"It's not a ring, it's a magical dream half-moon ring!"
Song Jinnian frowned and muttered in dissatisfaction.
"Really? I've told you two brothers several times that this name isn't hard to remember. Not all rings in the world are called the Qiling Huanmeng Half-Moon Ring. It's just that the Qiling Huanmeng Half-Moon Ring is a type of ring. Using it casually as a nickname is very rude..."
Don't focus on such weird things!
Just when Gu Qingze was about to patiently ask Song Jinnian again, he didn't expect Song Jinnian to return to the topic.
"How do you eat the Qiling Huanmeng Half Moon Ring? Brother Qingze, why are you asking this? Of course, you attach your own spiritual power to it, and it will enter your mind on its own."
Although Song Jinnian complained a few times, he still explained seriously.
"Hmm...Brother Jinnian, if I understand correctly, what you're talking about should be called 'refining', right?"
Chu Lingxiao hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't help but say it.
"Oh, right! This is called 'refining'! Human terms are indeed too complicated. However, 'eat' and 'refining' should have similar meanings."
When Song Jinnian heard Chu Lingxiao's reminder, her face suddenly turned red, but she still couldn't help but defend herself.
Almost? A world away, right?!
Chu Lingxiao complained silently in his heart, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, relieved that he didn't have to actually swallow the ring.
