At a glance
- A mocking observer. He tails Soul along the mountain road with constant jeers, and appears to be present to watch more than to murder.
- Three fighters, three weapons. Two doubles accompany him, one wielding a sword and the other a blade, whereas his own weapon is the rings.
- Seamless Death. His ring blades drop when he is beaten close to The Lady’s Shrine.
- Huangxing's envoy. His orders were to monitor Soul's advance, though he behaves more oddly than any other member of Huangxing's service.
Overview
Jade-Face, a Maskwalker whose jade mask is painted, pursues Soul up the path of the Mountain of Imprisonment.
He plays around rather than kills. Every step of the ascent brings jeers aimed at Soul, but he stops short of fully engaging, almost as if he were merely curious about the climb's extent. His mask is daubed in brash, grotesque colours, and a ghoulish grin shows up in his attacks right before the fatal strike.
Battles against him are never solo. His two doubles fight beside him, and between the three of them they divide a ring, a sword and a blade. Beating him yields the dual-wield rings named Seamless Death.

Role in the Story
Jeering Along the Mountain Path
Huangxing had Jade-Face watch Soul's advance along the road. Instead of blocking the ascent, he looked on with plain amusement as Soul made his way up to the top, and that distinguishes him from the others in Huangxing's service.
Repeatedly he turns up to provoke challengers during the ascent, and at one moment appears to be killed by the Blood Droplet, but he survives.
The Battle by The Lady’s Shrine
Soul takes on Jade-Face and his two doubles en route to The Lady’s Shrine. Fighting in the shrine seemingly fails to end him permanently, which could be exactly what he was holding back.

Gameplay
Rings, a Sword and a Blade
Two doubles join Jade-Face in battle. Jade Mask twirls rings in sneaky, unpredictable movements, Gold Mask jabs a sword from nasty angles, and Iron Mask wields a blade with savage power. Since fakes and real attacks are mixed together, the challenge lies as much in distinguishing them as in dealing damage.
The encounter starts at 9,000 HP and 2,400 Sha-Chi, with both scaling up alongside difficulty and subsequent playthroughs. A 30 percent resistance applies to Lightning and Poison, and bleed buildup is resisted equally.
Gear and Transport
Seamless Death is a twinned set of jade-colored ring blades that previously belonged to Jade-Face. Rings fly toward an enemy you have locked onto and cannot be blocked, making the weapon a ranged choice. Killing him close to The Lady’s Shrine is how you get it.
Frequently asked questions

His doubles. The three split the weapons, with rings, a sword and a blade, and rings are the one Jade-Face carries himself.
