Chapter 503: 253 Generous Remuneration, Ghost Mask Probe

"Death Sleep Master?"

Bai Xiao frowned slightly.

He pondered for a moment, as if something had come to mind.

"So, those illusion techniques you used before, were they also from a Death Sleep Master?"

On the black seat, Yao Qing fell silent for a moment before nodding. He didn’t verbally deny or confirm, suggesting there was still some undisclosed information.

"A formal Death Sleep Master can instantaneously hypnotize any ordinary human and use their sensory illusions to kill themselves. Ordinary people, up to a hundred, pose no threat to a Death Sleep Master, even with firearms. Even biological armors might be deceived by the senses. I’ve used such Death Sleep Technique before, and you should have seen it..."

Yao Qing took a deep breath, then revealed more information.

"The Eternal Sleep Sect established five types of death hypnosis techniques, corresponding to the five human senses, targeting their origins. Every Death Sleep Master has a hidden incantation and hypnotic gestures to trigger their abilities; the powerful ones carry one or several hypnotic tools at all times. Those who have mastered it choose one of the death hypnosis techniques to specialize in, constantly refining their spirit through meditation, strengthening their hypnotic tools, and even eventually condensing a Death Sleep Core. A Death Sleep Master of this level can be compared to a General Level biological armor..."

"It’s said that a hundred years ago, there existed super Death Sleep Masters corresponding to the five types of death hypnosis techniques, who cultivated the five great Death Sleep Cores and combined them! Everyone stepping into their domain would be dragged into endless illusionary hells..."

"On the brink of life and death, dream and wakefulness, they eternally wander."

Shaking his head, Yao Qing looked directly at Bai Xiao, "However, that is already a thing of the past. For some reason, a hundred years ago, the Eternal Sleep Sect underwent a massive change, with their strength and influence greatly reduced. It even seemed like there was a major problem with the core of their cultivation system, continuously declining over a century. Now, there are only a handful left. Only some old relics are still upholding the traditions of the past..."

"According to the old categorization of the Eternal Sleep Sect’s strength, Death Sleep Masters can be ranked from low to high as amateur, professional, special level, core level, and the legendary nightmare level. Into modern times, the strongest force the Eternal Sleep Sect has to offer is only at the special level, which is comparable to the Wing Level in biological armors. Their characteristic is possessing one or more hypnotic tools..."

Yao Qing detailed the decline of the Eternal Sleep Sect and continued, "After a century of decay, the Eternal Sleep Sect is extremely weakened. But they haven’t given up, instead seeking to recreate their former glory and splendor. So, decades ago, a few old relics in the sect started researching the sacrificial rituals to communicate with the Eternal Sleep God from the void, constantly attempting, and finally really found a way. Somehow, they obtained a piece of the flesh of the Eternal Sleep God. And from this, they gradually developed..."

"Now, the Eternal Sleep Sect must have recovered some of their vitality, it’s just unknown whether they have given birth to a core level Death Sleep Master again..."

"And, the Heavenly God Company, Beihai Company, and Feng Guang Company came for that piece of the Eternal Sleep God’s flesh! They somehow heard a rumor from somewhere, saying that the flesh of the Eternal Sleep God is also a kind of monster cells. If they can obtain the flesh of the god and research corresponding biological armors, it might be a new peak series, even surpassing the original peak..."

He chattered away, explaining all the causes and effects to Bai Xiao.

"So, you’re seeking me out also for the flesh of the Eternal Sleep God?"

Bai Xiao said quietly.

"No..."

Yao Qing shook his head, speaking solemnly, "The Mo Yun Group is here for the flesh of the Eternal Sleep God. As for me, I have another goal; I have some troubles that need resolving and must pay a visit to the Eternal Sleep Sect. My request for your help is purely personal, with no involvement with the Mo Yun Group’s matter..."

Hearing this, Bai Xiao remained silent and pondered for a moment.

It seems Yao Qing was planning to fish in troubled waters. Just as the giant companies clashed with the gradually recovering Eternal Sleep Sect, he could take advantage of the situation and achieve his goal.

As for inviting him, it’s equivalent to hiring a high-level enforcer.

Bai Xiao just needed to be responsible to Yao Qing.

There was no need for him to run around for the eventual victory of the Mo Yun Group.

He thought for a moment, considering the reward Yao Qing mentioned, the abundant Mercury Potion and the advanced potion Cold Star still in the experimental phase. After consuming these two, one could rapidly increase the proficiency of a biological armor.

If there were enough, it could even instantly raise an armor to max level.

For Bai Xiao, that was definitely good stuff.

He had already experienced the excellent effects of the Mercury Potion.

Moreover, Bai Xiao had some thoughts of his own. The biological armor slot in his Armored Knight professional panel was almost used up, with only an un-maxed Wing Level Armor Blue Crystal Fire Demon left. Clearly, it was time for Bai Xiao to stock up again, and this operation seemed like a good opportunity.

All the giant biological armor companies sent quite a few Wing Level Armors, including top-tier series. It would be difficult for him not to be tempted.

"I just wonder whether these giant companies will deploy General Level armors, and if within the Eternal Sleep Sect there still lies a top-tier core level Death Sleep Master. Both are comparable to a sect leader of a Martial Arts Sect. Compared to them, there might be a gap. But if it’s just Wing Level Armors and special level Death Sleep Masters, it won’t be a problem. It’s like eating at a buffet..."
