Heijiji seemed to know that there was a question with her words, and a hint of sadness appeared on her fair and delicate face. She smiled.
"Since I'm going to die anyway, what I'm about to say is probably the only time in my life I'll ever tell the truth."
I don't want to die with a mouth full of lies.
By now, you've probably guessed my ability. That's right, my ability is [lies]. I can accumulate the power of lies by constantly deceiving others. The more people I deceive, the stronger the power of my lies becomes.
Then, using this power, lies can be turned into facts. Of course, the more outrageous the reality, the more power and spiritual energy is required.
Hearing Heijiji's explanation, Fang Xiu was not surprised at all, because he had already guessed it based on his previous behavior.
What was unexpected was that the power of lies needs to be accumulated by deceiving people.
He always thought that lying was a psychological flaw of Hei Jiji, just like Zhao Hao's characteristic.
It turns out that the reason she never told the truth was to accumulate the power of lies.
"I grew stronger through lies, but I also gradually lost myself because of them. I lied to so many people, sometimes even to myself, that I forgot who I was. The name Heijiji is just one of my many names, and I'm not even sure if my current appearance is my true self."
As Heijiji spoke, the look of desolation on his face deepened, and a bitter smile filled his lips.
"You're wondering why I can forget my own name and appearance while lying to people. It's because I've lied to too many people and been exposed many times, which has offended a lot of people. So I have to change my appearance. I have to deceive myself and completely forget my past name and appearance in order to avoid being hunted down."
Spirit Masters possess a wide variety of abilities, and many can see through disguises. Even a spiritual lie detector can detect my lies. Only by completely deceiving myself and turning lies into truth can I avoid being exposed.
Moreover, I have encountered a bizarre phenomenon involving consciousness that can erase a person's personality. In order to survive, I had no choice but to create one false personality after another to take someone's place in death.
That eerie thing repeatedly erased my personality. Although I survived in the end, I couldn't be sure whether the remaining personality was the same as the original one.
Perhaps the real me is long dead, and the me I am now is nothing more than an empty shell built from countless lies.
As he spoke, a bitter smile appeared on Heijiji's lips. Coupled with his fake yet beautiful face, he looked extremely desolate, giving people a feeling of pity.
Fang Xiu calmly replied, "So you might be a man?"
Heijiji's miserable laughter stopped abruptly, and he froze, his mouth twitching uncontrollably. The emotions he had painstakingly cultivated were instantly shattered.
"A woman! I've been a woman from beginning to end! Although I keep deceiving myself and lying all the time, I haven't lied about my gender! That's my bottom line!" Heijiji shouted angrily.
Judging from its appearance, if it weren't buried in the soil, it would have been eager to dig it out and show it to Fang Xiu.
"What kind of look is that! I am a woman! And a very beautiful one at that!"
"Hmm," Fang Xiu hummed softly.
However, in Heijiji's opinion, Fang Xiu didn't believe her at all.
She grew increasingly furious, seemingly wanting to explain something, but by then the grave soil had completely buried her fair neck and was even beginning to spread towards her chin.
A flicker of panic crossed her eyes, and she hurriedly said, "Fang Xiu! Remember to look at my name! Although we will all die, I still hope that in our final moments, someone will remember my name, even if only for a moment."
If you're lucky enough to survive, burn your name...
At this point, Heijiji's words abruptly stopped, because the grave soil had already covered her mouth, then her nose, eyes, and the top of her head...
Moments later, Blackie was completely buried, turning into a mound, and in front of the mound stood a tombstone.
Fang Xiu glanced calmly at the tombstone.
The inscription reads: Tomb of Xiao Chuxia.
Early summer?
Xiao Chuxia.
It turns out that Heijiji's real name is Xiao Chuxia.
After only one glance, he looked away and began to observe the cemetery.
By this time, the soil from the grave on his body had reached his chest.
He observed for a long time, but still couldn't find any way to crack it.
This is simply a matter of overwhelming strength. Without sufficient power, one can only be suppressed and buried alive by the grave soil.
It seems that with our current strength, we are simply not capable of setting foot on the burial ground.
Upon realizing this, Fang Xiu gave up resisting, put away the primordial mask, and let the grave soil bury him.
Without the resistance of the strange power, the speed at which the soil piled up increased dramatically, and in just a moment, the place where Fang Xiu was located turned into a tomb.
Like everyone else, a tombstone appeared out of nowhere in front of his grave, but Fang Xiu, who was buried alive, was destined never to see his name on the tombstone.
After being buried alive, Fang Xiu first felt a suffocating sensation, followed by a sense of emptiness.
My entire body was swallowed by nothingness, the connection between consciousness and body was gradually severed, and I gradually lost the ability to perceive my physical existence. Then, my consciousness began to fade...
......
......
The third stop: an old house.
Fang Xiu walked out of the old house with a calm expression and saw Yang Ming and the others waiting outside.
"Come in, everyone."
Everyone nodded and followed Fang Xiu into the old house without hesitation.
Soon, they saw the ancient well in the old house, where a slowly rotating white hole appeared.
"Let's go, let's get out of here."
With that, Fang Xiu headed toward the White Cave.
That's right, he plans to leave because he can't get past the fourth station right now. He can't resist the strange grave soil for the time being. He'll come back after he breaks through to the third level.
"Brother Xiu, why did you change your mind? Weren't we supposed to head to the next stop? Why are we going through the White Cave now?" Xiao Chuxia asked curiously.
Fang Xiu replied without turning his head, "Because everyone will die if we go to the next stop."
The seemingly ordinary words struck everyone like a bolt from the blue.
They never doubted Fang Xiu's words; if he said everyone would die at the next stop, then they would definitely die.
"Holy crap, I didn't expect the graveyard to be so dangerous? Everyone will die? Luckily you foresaw it, otherwise we would be done for." Yang Ming looked shaken, as if he had really experienced a life-or-death situation.
The other people had basically the same expression.
Xiao Chuxia wasn't quite used to it yet, and was even quite curious.
"Brother Hugh, what's the next monster we're facing? It's incredibly powerful!"
Before Fang Xiu could answer, Yang Ming became impatient.
"Hey, Big Black, why do you have so many questions? Just follow Brother Hugh and let's go. The thought of us all being wiped out in this godforsaken place makes me not want to stay here for another second."
So everyone jumped into the white hole one by one, not caring what was behind it; they just jumped because Hugh told them to.
Xiao Chuxia glared at everyone angrily, stomped her foot, and finally had no choice but to follow.
