Chapter 1101 - Mysterious Gaze (2/2)
However, that was not important. What was important was that in this small and narrow space was a very important item.
It was a stone sculpture of an old man. This old man possessed a large and robust figure, and a handsome appearance. With the extraordinary aura displayed by the sculpture, one could tell with a single glance that the old man had been an extraordinary expert.
Most importantly, this old man was holding a sword in his hand.
This sword was a meter long. It was not part of the sculpture; it was an actual sword. However, if one was to carefully inspect it, one would discover that it was not a sword. Instead, it was a key[1. Keyblade, anyone?], an extraordinary key.
“Spirit formation key.” With a single glance, Chu Feng was able to recognize what it was.
After that, Chu Feng began to carefully inspect his surroundings. He discovered that, other than the sculpture and the spirit formation key that the sculpture held, there was nothing else on this tenth floor.
At this moment, Chu Feng was pretty certain that the sculpture was that of his Southern Cyanwood Forest’s founder, Baili Xuankong.
As for the key in Baili Xuankong’s hand, it should be the keepsake.
“Junior Chu Feng pays his respect to ancestor.” Thinking to this point, Chu Feng paid his respects to the sculpture.
After all, he was a disciple of the Southern Cyanwood Forest, and Baili Xuankong was the ancestor of the Southern Cyanwood Forest. Thus, even though it was only a sculpture, Chu Feng still could not disrespect Baili Xuankong and had to pay his respects to him.
After paying his respects, Chu Feng walked forward. He wanted to remove the key from the sculpture.
“Buzz.”
However, who would’ve thought that right after Chu Feng’s hand touched that spirit formation key, a special energy would rush into his hand. Immediately after, the energy returned to the spirit formation key.
The most fearful thing was that after the energy returned to the spirit formation key, it actually brought Chu Feng’s aura along with it. At this moment, a binding was cast onto Chu Feng’s body by that spirit formation key.
“Automatically recognizing its master?” Chu Feng was surprised. Even though he had expected this spirit formation key to be extraordinary, he did not expect it to be this powerful and actually capable of recognizing its master.
However, Chu Feng was unable to understand. As a keepsake, this spirit formation key should be left in the care of the Ascension Sect. For it to actually recognize him as its master, what exactly was the meaning behind that?
However, since Baili Xuankong had arranged it so, there would definitely be a reason for it. Thus, Chu Feng did not bother to overthink it, picked up the spirit formation key, and began to walk towards the exit.
“This sensation?” However, right when Chu Feng reached the spirit formation gate, his gaze suddenly flashed. Immediately after, he hurried to turned around and cast his gaze onto the sculpture of Baili Xuankong.
That was because earlier, Chu Feng had felt that someone was watching him from behind. As for the source of that gaze, it was precisely from the eyes of the sculpture of Baili Xuankong.
However, this sculpture did not appear to be abnormal at all. Like before, it was very calm and quiet. With doubt in his heart, Chu Feng activated his Heaven’s Eyes to inspect the sculpture. However, he still did not find anything.
“Could it have been a misperception?” Chu Feng was very confident in his sensitivity. Thus, he did not feel that the sensation he had had earlier had been a misperception. But, since he was unable to determine any abnormality with this sculpture, Chu Feng had no choice but to accept it as such.
“Lord Ancestor, this disciple will be leaving.” However, before Chu Feng left, he once again paid his respects to the sculpture of Baili Xuankong. Only then did he turn around to leave.
This time, Chu Feng did not feel the sensation of being watched. However, his heart remained restless. After all, since such a thing had happened, he felt it to be very strange.
That was because the sensation of the gaze that he had felt earlier seemed to have been from a human.
