Chapter 304: Faceless Ghoul and Faceless Rebirth!

Chapter 304: Faceless Ghoul and Faceless Rebirth!

A Beastmaster's ability to enhance their pets with skills is indeed impressive.

The proud Yin Master standing before Su Ping certainly had reason to be proud.

Su Ping had never heard of such a skill before.

Aside from innate talent, the abilities of human Beastmasters, whether it be soul contracts for controlling pets or the Beast Taming Realm, are all related to mental prowess. What kind of skill could help a Beastmaster extend their lifespan?

Su Ping looked at Yin Master with skepticism.

If this skill was truly as incredible as it seemed, Yin Master's status should be even higher, shouldn't it?

However, based on Su Ping's observations over the past few days, Yin Master's position within the Beast Tamer Association was indeed exceptional, but he seemed to fall short compared to the previous Vice President Zhu Hong.

Zhu Hong was a genuine authority figure with substantial influence over the association's internal affairs. This time, Zhu Hong's pet, Dahuang, had advanced, and although he himself had not yet broken through, it was likely only a matter of a few years before he did, and his status would likely rise even further.

In comparison, Yin Master was undoubtedly inferior.

Understanding Yin Master's purpose for this visit, Su Ping's heart stirred slightly, and he began to grasp the situation, but he still had some doubts.

Noticing Su Ping's bewilderment, Yin Master seemed pleased. He coughed lightly and then said, "The favor I wish to ask of you, Su Ping, involves my super-tier skill!"

"Oh?"

Su Ping silently acknowledged the truth of the matter.

If it were genuinely that powerful, Yin Master would have treated it as a national treasure, not like how he was handling it now.

This so-called life-extending super-tier skill must have significant drawbacks and flaws.

However, Su Ping's heart was also filled with joy.

Researching such a super-tier skill was undoubtedly beneficial for him.

Not only would it provide countless advantages for his breeding skills, but it would also greatly aid in illuminating the Bestiary and contribute to the development of the Heart of All Spirits.

Yin Luo's super-tier skill was not like Old Liu Fuhai's, which had no leads at all. Instead, it was a real possibility.

If feasible, the Bestiary's general experience would be enough to bring about results! With this in mind, Su Ping didn't hesitate:

"Please tell me about it. As I've said before, if I can help, I won't refuse."

Upon hearing this, Yin Master slightly relaxed. He focused his mind, as a super-tier Beastmaster, released his mental power, enveloping Su Ping's entire room to prevent the conversation from being overheard.

Then, a beam of light illuminated a bizarre pet, which appeared before Su Ping.

Wait, this wasn't a pet.

This seemed to be a living person.

Su Ping stared, unable to react for a moment.

The person had pale skin, devoid of any blood color.

Their expressionless face and waist-length black hair, despite their modern attire, gave the impression of a middle-aged woman, but the deathly aura and icy coldness that permeated their body indicated that this was not a person but more like a corpse.

Fortunately, Su Ping had somewhat anticipated such a pet from the undead category.

Soon, he thought of a unique Eastern undead pet.

"This is... a Faceless Ghoul?" Su Ping asked, surprised.

Yin Master smiled and nodded, "To be precise, this is the Imperial-tier evolution of the Faceless Ghoul, the Faceless King!"

"Faceless King?"

Su Ping scratched his head, clearly unfamiliar with this peculiar Imperial-tier pet.

"That's right. This evolution is one of the new evolutions I developed when I advanced to a senior breeder. And this super-tier skill is a unique ability of the Faceless King: Faceless Rebirth!"

"Faceless Rebirth..."

Su Ping could already guess some of its functions from the name.

"That's right! The Faceless King's super-tier skill allows it to use its abilities to create a human body, and then the Beastmaster can transfer their soul into it, thereby achieving the goal of extending their lifespan!"

Yin Master explained.

Su Ping licked his dry lips, "How much can the lifespan be extended with each new body?"

"It's not just about extending life. Even critical injuries can be fully healed after Faceless Rebirth. As long as the soul isn't extinguished, recovery is possible! If it's about lifespan extension, it depends on the Faceless King's body level and materials.

Typically, the lifespan extension effect is about one to five years!"

One to five years?

Apparently, it's possible! Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, but he had to admit that just hearing the name of this skill gave him a not-so-good premonition. It was evident that creating such a shell wouldn't be easy.

However, Su Ping didn't rush to ask questions. Instead, he looked at Master Yin Luo's body with great interest and asked, "Master Yin, is this body also a replacement shell?"

Master Yin Luo nodded helplessly, "This is my fifth shell. Back then, I was also a handsome young man..."

Perhaps even a charming young beauty...

Su Ping silently mocked in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.

"When I first tried to cultivate this Super Rank Skill, I voluntarily replaced three shells. Later, I encountered an attack from a foreign enemy and suffered fatal injuries. I replaced another shell, but let's not talk about that one... After that, I replaced it with the current one."

As expected, for a Beast Tamer to perfect a skill, they become the first test subject.

"So, you've probably extended your lifespan by at most twenty-five years? That seems to be a decent effect."

Master Yin Luo smiled bitterly, "It's not that simple. Moreover, even if we consider the lifespan extension, according to the lifespan limit of a mid-to-high-level Beastmaster, which is a hundred years, it's not necessary."

Furthermore, such lifespan extension is not without cost!"

Master Yin Luo paused here, and his spiritual power suddenly surged before he continued, "Su Ping, what level are you at now?"

Su Ping raised his eyebrows, sensing the spiritual fluctuations emanating from Master Yin Luo, "Imperial Second Rank?"

Although Master Yin Luo's age hadn't reached the limit of his lifespan, it was still quite advanced.

He was already in his sixties or seventies, and at this level, the difficulty of breaking through to the next realm increased with age.

After all, not everyone could be like Charles, breaking through to the Spirit Level in their 120s.

Master Yin Luo's next words further confirmed Su Ping's suspicions, "In fact, without using this Faceless Rebirth, more than ten years ago, my Meditation Realm had already reached the Imperial Seventh Rank!"

"Hmm?"

Su Ping raised his eyebrows.

"That's right. Each time it's used, not only does the pet's level decrease, but the Beastmaster's level also drops by one! That's not the most important part. The most crucial thing is that after so many years, I've never been able to break through again! Not even by one level!"

"At the same time, although I'm not certain, I estimate an eighty percent chance that once it's used again, in the future, after falling from the Imperial Rank, it won't be possible to use this skill again."

"This..."

Su Ping's lips twitched. This skill...

It seemed a bit useless? He thought for a moment and asked, "Can the Faceless Ghoul King give the Faceless Rebirth to Beastmasters other than itself?"

Master Yin Luo shook his head, "It can only be used by the Beastmaster himself. This requires the Beastmaster's spiritual power and the Faceless Ghoul King to establish a Soul Bond for symbiosis. Others won't work."

Okay, Su Ping could now say that this skill was indeed quite useless.

After using it, there would be no chance to further improve one's rank.

Even if one were to use it at the highest level of the Imperial Rank, the Imperial Tenth Rank Peak, it could only be used ten times at most.

Ten times, if calculated at the maximum, would be fifty years?

Hmm, thinking about it this way, it seemed not too bad. At the very least, it seemed to extend one's lifespan by fifty years.

Of course, this was the maximum, and the minimum was only ten years.

But no matter how Su Ping looked at it, it didn't seem to have much significance. Moreover, one would have to personally cultivate the 'Faceless Ghoul King' as a pet, and its combat power was unknown. Was this skill meant to prevent oneself from breaking through to the Spirit Level? But if one had already reached the Imperial Rank Peak, why not try to break through to the Spirit Level?

Only by succeeding would it truly extend one's lifespan.

Using this skill would be like completely giving up the possibility of ascending to a higher rank.

For Beastmasters who didn't care much about combat, this skill might be useful. However, having reached the Imperial Rank, it could only be said that this Super Rank Skill was indeed quite useless among the useless.

Especially when compared to Charles' unknown method of modifying the Lich Vessel, the effect of this Faceless Rebirth was too ordinary.

The reason it became a Super Rank Skill was purely due to its inherent ability, which was indeed quite meaningful and sufficiently miraculous. It could serve as a means for those with no other options to prolong their lives.

As he thought about it, Su Ping understood the other party's intention.

"So, you want me to work with you to further improve the Faceless Rebirth skill?"

"Yes! This is the culmination of my life's work, but the limitations and constraints of Faceless Rebirth are significant. Unless a Beastmaster is at their wit's end, few would choose this path.

Even if one were to take this step, it would be challenging to truly succeed, as one would need to re-contract and nurture an Imperial Rank Faceless Ghost King!"

It must be said that Yin Luo's idea was excellent.

If one could truly resolve this flaw, then the Painted Skin Female Ghost, also a unique Undead-type pet beast native to the East, would undoubtedly have its strategic value and significance greatly enhanced, just like the Origami Person.

Of course, it wouldn't reach the level of the Origami Person, as the target audience for both is different.

However, in the eyes of high-end Beastmasters, the value of the Painted Skin Female Ghost might be even higher.

Because if there were no promotion constraints, possessing this ability would be equivalent to immortality, right?"

As these words appeared in his mind, Su Ping's heart skipped a beat.

However, this was obviously impossible.

Su Ping was certain that even if there were a way to achieve immortality in the world, it would never be accomplished through such means.

So, he sighed:

"Master Yin, you're giving me too much credit. This Super Rank Skill is an entirely new field that I've never ventured into before!"

"Hehe, you're still young. There's a lot more for you to see in the future. Undead-type pets are the most unique race. If you can, delving deep into this field will undoubtedly bring more gains! Although, for now, the focus of Beastmasters worldwide is on the Mechanical Race. After all, the Blue Planet has been in the industrial age for over a century, and various electromagnetic applications have led to the emergence of mechanical cores, making Mechanical-type pet beasts the darlings of the past century.

But, after more than a century, not a single Super Rank Skill of the Mechanical Race has been listed above the Hall of Fame! Now, the top Mechanical Masters from the various Beastmaster countries on the Blue Planet are in a covert struggle, all vying to be the first..."

"..."

...

The interaction with Master Yin continued for several days.

Master Yin was in no hurry to leave the Rong Family.

He knew that in a few days, after the Rong Family's matters were concluded, Su Ping would be leaving the Northern Province.

During these few days, besides exchanging breeding insights, Master Yin primarily wanted to do one thing.

That was to impart to Su Ping his experience in nurturing the Faceless Ghost King.

With this pioneering Undead-type breeding master, Su Ping gained a profound understanding of the Painted Skin Female Ghost and the Faceless Ghost King.

It was under these circumstances that several days passed, and finally, the day of the opening of the Rong Family's Five Saints Secret Realm arrived.

There shouldn't be any more delays, and updates can resume!
