Without the eyeball of the Shadow Devil, there was no constant surveillance, which seed to ease the tension when No. 8 White Water Egg spoke.
Yu Ziqing looked at No. 8 White Water Egg, and an inexplicable chill ran down his spine.
He once thought that White Water Eggs were completely brainwashed Death Soldiers, fearless and unrestrained, so even with constant surveillance, it didn't matter.
But after seeing the scenes within the eyeball and eting No. 8 White Water Egg again, Yu Ziqing realized he had overthought it.
These White Water Eggs were ant to carry out tasks—they needed to hide, to understand coercion and temptation, and to make tily decisions in different situations.
More like a role of a spy, combat power was unimportant, so they could not be Death Soldiers.
So long as they possessed normal minds and weren't the brainwashed and foolish Death Soldiers, there was still room for conversation.
Seeing the deanor of No. 8 White Water Egg, Yu Ziqing thought perhaps the Faceless n thods they mastered were different from those mastered by Dadui.
He planned to ask Jia Shisi about it later, and if necessary, to look at the sealed Dharma thods.
"Do you know the thod to abandon your face?"
"Yes, but you must first cultivate the Dharma thod, and then, at appropriate tis every few years, perform the ritual to abandon na and face, only then is it considered fully cultivated."
"You don't rember who you once were, do you?"
No. 8 White Water Egg was silent for a mont, then nodded.
"I don't rember. To distinguish each other's identity, we mainly rely on masks.
The higher-ups identify by my mask and the eyeball of the Shadow Devil.
To leave no flaws, we don't even leave behind a soul lamp."
Yu Ziqing understood that, thus, there were no flaws known to the world, but as a trade-off, the eyeball of the Shadow Devil beca the sole flaw, and a significant one at that.
If it weren't for a Heavenly Demon like Freedom Heaven, which had no physical form, and naturally possessed talent,
These White Water Eggs themselves could by no ans easily remove the eyeball of the Shadow Devil from their heads.
So, there was another question: Freedom Heaven could take it out because of natural racial abilities.
So then,
"How was the eyeball of the Shadow Devil placed in your heads, recording everything you see and hear?"
"I don't know; during this process, I had no awareness."
Yu Ziqing turned serious, these White Water Eggs' superiors sure were cunning, even guarding against their own people.
"When your wounds heal a bit, go lure the person you want to exchange identities with."
No. 8 White Water Egg nodded, sitting there quietly, his figure slowly disappearing.
Yu Ziqing glanced at the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost, who gestured to him, indicating that No. 8 White Water Egg was still there, just invisible.
It seed the White Water Eggs' thods of concealnt were different from those of the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost.
They still used the Secret Technique flow, or they solidified the Secret Technique within themselves, relying on it for concealnt.
But the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost had no such Secret Technique thods at all. According to Yu Ziqing's understanding, the man's concealnt capability had grown stronger, like a passive reduction, diminishing his presence.
Many tis, the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost would stand there motionless, and even Yu Ziqing would overlook him.
Only when the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost moved would he suddenly be sensed.
Oh my God, when did you stand there?
It was as though at those monts, his senses finally captured the presence of the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost.
This kind of ability would only have a stronger influence on others.
Much like the Deceitful Ghost, the ability of a hungry ghost naturally erged, like the Divine Skills of Body Cultivation.
According to Cece, who thodically studied and asked these hungry ghosts,
Hungry ghosts with such abilities, or those beginning to show signs, all shared so common traits.
First, they've devoured Devils and Devil Thought, and a lot of them.
Hungry ghosts, if they could be overstuffed to death, they would need to eat enough Devils, Devil Thought, and so on, enough to kill them hundreds of tis over.
Second, they consud Sweet Rain Original Liquid, which must have been given by Yu Ziqing personally.
Nominally, Yu Ziqing also offered it to the hungry ghost, but not through others or through the Almsgiving route.
Third, they had prolonged contact with Yu Ziqing or stayed near him for a long ti.
Especially those hungry ghosts who, during tis when Yu Ziqing borrowed power and transford into a Ninth Tier hungry ghost, had close contact with him ideally.
But these are just speculations, as hungry ghosts developing special abilities seed more like mysticism.
Their arising abilities were also directly correlated to their own desires.
Just like the ability of the Deceitful Ghost, probably because the guy mostly wanted to gather information to do better business.
And the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost, it wasn't for gatekeeping at all.
Rather, he was wholeheartedly committed to becoming human—or rather, becoming beautiful.
He desired gorgeous clothes, smooth fair skin, and long elegant hair.
Currently dressed in paper clothes, a human skin mask, and wearing a wig, all gifts from Yu Ziqing.
But the Gatekeeper Hungry Ghost took these as rewards for good deeds, incredibly happy.
It wasn't that Yu Ziqing didn't want to give him sothing better, but that once given, it would last at most one two-hour.
The gorgeous clothes would decay, a delicately crafted human skin mask would warp and break,
And the wig would swiftly wither, a gentle breeze blowing it to dust.
Now, in this brightly colored paper outfit, it was what Yu Ziqing casually had Emperor Kuihou obtain.
