Chapter 65 -56: Disguise Talisman
“The mission is completed, looks like I still have to take a few more stops to get back to Xinhu.”
Zhou Yuan casually added the 1 attribute point from the upgrade to Perception.
With the bonus from the “Gambler” title, his attributes were now:
[Attributes:
Strength: 11
Agility: 11
Constitution: 11
Intelligence: 11
Perception: 18
Charm: 12]
The enhanced perception greatly benefited his cultivation, but it also had some downsides—he could easily see things he shouldn’t see.
The results of a successful inspiration were usually not good, with minor consequences being mental trauma and severe ones leading to madness.
He thought he might need to buy some items to resist mental pollution and enhance his rationality in the future.

After more than two hours and three stops, a city appeared in the distance.
“Driver, are we in Xinhu?”
“Yes, we stop in the suburbs during the day, and only stop at Yunhai Road at night,” the driver said.
“I’ll get off here.”
A moment later, the bus arrived at a stop in the suburbs, desolate with no passengers waiting.
Zhou Yuan got off the bus, watching the 106 bus disappear from view with just a blink.
He immediately opened the map app and found he was more than twenty kilometers from the city center.
“Luckily, I have a bike in my backpack… but the surveillance captured me riding this bike while killing Li Xu Tian earlier, to be safe, I’ll walk once I get into the city.”
“Before that, since no one’s around here…”
Zhou Yuan found a secluded forest area, took out the Paru Ball, and summoned the Blood Sea Fierce Ghost.
“Hold back your ghostly aura, don’t attract the Control Bureau.”
Zhou Yuan paused for a moment, then asked, “Do you still remember your name?”
“I died so miserably…” the Blood Sea Fierce Ghost repeated mournfully.
“Fang Qing.” Zhou Yuan called out.
The Blood Sea Fierce Ghost’s body trembled slightly.
There’s a reaction!
Zhou Yuan quickly recited all of Fang Qing’s information in one breath.
“… Your father was called Fang Shiming, your mother was called Wang Xiuxiu, do you still remember them?”
“…”
The Blood Sea Fierce Ghost’s body trembled more violently, and the blood on it began to boil. A struggling look appeared in those mournful eyes.
“I… I…”
Fang Qing suddenly bent over, clutching her head in pain, “I remember now… I remember everything now…”
Suddenly, the blood pool under Fang Qing’s feet flowed back into her body, and her blood-formed body gradually became solid, eventually transforming into a fair and beautiful naked body.
She squatted on the ground, tears filling her eyes:
“Where is this? What year is it… now?”
“This is Xinhu.”
Zhou Yuan said to her with a complicated expression, “It’s now year 106.”
“I’ve… been dead for two years…” Fang Qing closed her eyes in pain, lowering her head.
“This is not a place to talk, I’ll slowly explain everything once we get home.”
Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and returned Fang Qing to the Paru Ball, rushing to leave the area.

More than an hour later, Zhou Yuan returned home, drenched in sweat and with his skin burning hot from the sun. He quickly rushed into the bathroom to cool off.
The usual routine: bathing, burning incense.
Then he opened the chest.
A flash of light.
[Name: Disguise Talisman]
[Quality: Rare]
[Special Effect: Gain the spell “Self Disguise”. It can magically alter every aspect of your appearance.]
[Cost: 100 points of Spirituality]
[Note: Transform in countless ways, but don’t forget your true self.]
“A disguising artifact?”
Zhou Yuan’s eyes lit up. No more need to buy one-time transformation cards, and from the description, it seemed the changes were very versatile.
He quickly wore the talisman and went to the mirror to experiment.
“Let’s try becoming an elf first.”
With his thought, a flash of light, he transformed into a handsome elf with golden long hair. His clothes changed too, resembling those worn by the elves in “The Hobbit.”
“The ears feel so real…” Zhou Yuan touched the long ears unique to elves, surprised.
“And the height changed too… This seems like a spell that directly works on the body, altering its structure, now to try becoming a dwarf.”
Shua!
Zhou Yuan became a burly dwarf with a thick beard, wearing heavy armor.
“Hmm… Dwarves are generally strong, but I don’t feel any increase in strength, no change in attributes through racial transformation? And this armor seems to be just for show.”
Thinking for a moment, he transformed into a two-meter-tall troll, his body covered in solid muscles but with no increase in strength or constitution, confirming his earlier assumption.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
“So do abilities inherent to races work?”
Zhou Yuan found a large barrel at home, filled it with water, and then used the disguise talisman to turn into a Deep Diver Fishman, burying his head in the water with a splash.
“Cough cough cough…”
With a splash, he hurriedly lifted his head, coughing violently. The Fishman’s gills failed to function, unable to help him breathe underwater.
“So racial abilities don’t work either… If humanoid creatures can change, can animals?”
After recovering from choking on water, Zhou Yuan tried turning into a cat or a dog but failed.
“Animals can’t change, only humanoid creatures… What about gender?”
Zhou Yuan suddenly had a bold idea.
Shua! A flash of light.
He had actually transformed into a waist-length black-haired, fair-skinned beautiful woman!
“Holy shit!”
Zhou Yuan was stunned, even his voice had turned into a pleasant female one.
Reaching down to touch, it was really gone.
“Damn, it really works, indeed it’s a rare quality item.”
Zhou Yuan was delighted, since both genders could be changed, the possibilities were vast.
Assassinations, infiltration, espionage, framing… With clever use, he could deceive anyone.
Dispel the disguise.
Zhou Yuan went to his bedroom, finding a few pieces of his clothing, tossing them on the bed, and while standing outside the door, holding the Paru Ball into the room, he released Fang Qing: “There are clothes on the bed, put them on first.”
“Okay.”
After a while, Fang Qing was dressed and opened the door, coming out.
“Where is this?”
“My home.”
Zhou Yuan motioned for Fang Qing to sit and talk.
He then explained the concepts of Transcendence and anomalies to her, and Fang Qing, being an excellent student, quickly absorbed this knowledge and understood her current status.
“So although I’m dead, I’ve become a ghost… and a very strong one.”
“That’s correct.”
“What about my parents?” Fang Qing asked.
Zhou Yuan paused, then softly said, “I’m sorry, they passed away shortly after you went missing.”
Fang Qing bit her lip, her eyes quickly filling with tears, her fists clenched tightly: “It must have been those people from the Blueprint Group, they killed me and then harmed my parents!”
Thud.
Fang Qing knelt in front of Zhou Yuan, crying and pleading: “Please, help me get revenge…”
“I will.” Zhou Yuan helped her up, after all, she was now one of his people.
“Do you remember everything that happened before and after your death?”
Zhou Yuan said seriously, “This is very important.”
Fang Qing nodded firmly, gritting her teeth: “I remember it all.”
