Even at this mont, when the White Water Egg was already dead, the strange power solidified on its head had still not dissipated.
Turning around, recalling things related to the White Water Egg, everything was subjected to strong interference.
It seed as if all matters related to this guy would turn blank.
Yu Ziqing placed the tal mask back on it, pondering while stroking his chin.
It seed that what King Qi did was all because of the White Water Egg, using so map as the price for the trade.
Therefore, the person Yu Ziqing was looking for was not King Qi, but the White Water Egg who made a deal with King Qi.
The one stirring the wind and rain certainly had inextricable ties with the White Water Egg.
No wonder there had been no clues elsewhere for so long.
With the special ability of the White Water Egg, it was the best ans of confidentiality.
But how exactly did King Qi withstand the White Water Egg's power?
It seed he was not significantly affected.
Yu Ziqing glanced again at the White Water Egg wearing the tal mask, thinking for a mont.
It seed that as long as one did not look directly at the face of the White Water Egg, they wouldn't be impacted.
At this mont, Lou Huai manifested his form, gently sniffing the air and swallowing two strands of breath.
"Big brother, I've morized this person's scent, as well as the scent of what killed him. I've morized that too.
I'll definitely recognize it in the future if I co across anyone with similar aura.
And the thing that killed him, I can recognize that too."
"Well done."
Yu Ziqing stomped his right foot, and Freedom Heaven erged, looking at the White Water Egg's corpse before quickly entering its body.
Monts later, it flew out and shook its head at Yu Ziqing.
"Master, indeed, this person's Divine Soul has been devoured, but there is still sothing left in his head."
Freedom Heaven extended a hand and grabbed, causing the cranium of the White Water Egg to shiver slightly, and a pearl the size of a pinky fingernail, almost invisible, flew out.
After the pearl ca out, it turned into a streak of tunneling light and vanished instantly.
"Master, encapsulate it with Demonic Qi!" Freedom Heaven imdiately reminded.
Yu Ziqing moved, appearing miles away instantly, capturing the pearl and wrapping it with Demonic Qi.
Taking one more step, he returned to the original spot.
"Does anyone recognize it?"
"No," Lou Huai and the others shook their heads.
Freedom Heaven glanced at Lou Huai and grinned.
"Master, I recognize this thing, I have seen it before."
"Tell ."
"This is the eyeball of a Shadow Devil, used by humans to record things. Last year, quite a few Shadow Devils died in the Abyssal Rift.
This one here is at least a Seventh Tier Shadow Devil's eyeball.
What it has recorded must be experiences this person had in life.
But there is a downside, once this is activated, another corresponding eyeball would also see what this one has recorded.
And it can only be viewed once, Master, it's best not to rashly activate it.
Rest assured, Master, I personally extracted it, no one will notice it's missing."
"If the holder of the other eyeball activates it, it will appear here as well, right?" Yu Ziqing asked, holding the pearl.
"Master, you are wise, indeed it's so. They won't see each other, only the experiences in life of this person."
Yu Ziqing took out a coffin, collected the White Water Egg's corpse, sealed it, and planned to later find soone to study it.
He would ask Jia Shisi, the genuine Faceless Man definitely knew about these things best.
"Alright, let's assu this never happened, continue doing what you need to do.
If soone enters the Abyssal Rift, just as before, ignore it.
rely rember their figure, appearance, power fluctuations, and aura."
Yu Ziqing placed the Shadow Devil's eyeball into a jade box and set it on a shelf.
Then he prepared the Imprint Stone and various other equipnt, ready to make records at any ti.
King Qi presumably had no knowledge of the White Water Egg's backup plan, either.
...
At King Qi Mansion, Li Xingchen arrived at King Qi's study, conducting a personal investigation.
Shortly, a Faceless Man found a scroll of landscape paintings and placed them before Li Xingchen.
"Master, we've examined them and found that many things were secretly recorded inside. We dared not rashly decipher them."
"Bring them back first."
Days later, Li Xingchen received the decoded results, and after a brief inspection, his brow slightly furrowed.
It detailed records of every encounter King Qi had with a certain individual.
Every word was recorded clearly, even the tone at that ti was docunted in detail.
The things King Qi did, why he had to provoke a war, were all because of the trade with this person.
Later records clearly showed the individual conversing with King Qi and making deals was a White Water Egg.
Li Xingchen's face darkened, he imdiately summoned the Faceless n.
However, soon, he discovered two Faceless n had vanished.
One of them he rembered, always masked, never removing it, silent and ticulous, neither particularly good nor bad, just an average Faceless Man.
All records concerning that person showed no issues, so minor mistakes, but nothing significant.
Then he saw why King Qi was doing all of this...
...
The Shadow Devil's eyeball automatically activated.
Yu Ziqing imdiately triggered the Imprint Stone and sound recording stone, among other things.
The light projected from the eyeball made the surrounding feel like the first-person perspective of the White Water Egg at that mont.
The scenes flickered, changing constantly, then finally settled on the scene of eting King Qi.
This must have been the controller of the other eyeball filtering out the useless scenes.
The White Water Egg sat there, and across from it, King Qi appeared sowhat shocked, but quickly stabilized.
"Faceless Man? What do you want from ?"
"Your Highness, you overthink. I am not a Faceless Man from Dazhen. I am here to make a deal with Your Highness."
"What kind of deal?"
"Your Highness once consud a piece of Heaven Material and Earth Treasure tainted with Immortal Herb's aura, barely advancing to the Ninth Tier by relying on that thin aura.
Even with just a trace of Immortal Herb's aura, a top-tier Heaven Material and Earth Treasure could have such divine effects. Doesn't Your Highness want a complete Immortal Herb?"
Upon hearing this, King Qi couldn't hide his shock, taking a long pause before speaking.
"What do you want to do?"
"Right now, I wish to cooperate with Your Highness, to accomplish one thing.
Once Your Highness succeeds, I will provide the map to the location of that Immortal Herb.
I can give Your Highness so information in advance. That Immortal Herb is nad Undying Mandala and once appeared in the world.
It's the Immortal Herb Your Highness has been secretly searching for over the years.
Now that Immortal Herb has escaped into the Abyss.
The Abyss is boundless; without a map, Your Highness won't find it in this lifeti."
"I want to see the map first."
The White Water Egg produced a roll of Beast Skin and spread it, allowing King Qi to view it.
The White Water Egg observed King Qi's expression and smiled.
"It seems Your Highness's years of searching were not fruitless after all. You should be able to see that the locations appearing on the map are real, right?"
"What are the terms of the deal?"
"Instigate a full-scale war between Dazhen and Dali."
"Alright."
The scene transitioned to the next encounter in a flash.
Yu Ziqing observed this, and voilà, he had found the tip of the iceberg. While the others fought like dogs, he gained an unexpected surprise.
However, thinking a bit more, he realized if he hadn't connected Dazhen and Dali, King Qi probably wouldn't have been pushed to this extent.
Looking at King Qi's deanor, he likely had grasped so information unknown even to the White Water Egg.
From the start, he planned to deceive the White Water Egg, only wanting the map. Besides the map, he might have already mastered the other details.
anwhile, it's unlikely that the White Water Egg was benevolent enough to just use the location of the Immortal Herb as bait, aiming ultimately to deceive King Qi.
But in the end, King Qi acted decisively, stabbing in the back at the opportune mont.
Yet, Yu Ziqing felt sothing was off about this matter, sothing strange from both sides.
Those people had the map and intelligence, so why didn't they seek the Immortal Herb themselves?
