At this moment, Leng Yihan suddenly remembered the Rubik's Cube she hadn't yet solved. With a thought, the Rubik's Cube appeared in the soul's hand.

"Alright... let me see what's inside this thing..." After getting the Rubik's Cube, Leng Yihan picked it up and examined it carefully. All the patterns on it were broken up, and it seemed that these patterns had to be put back together to restore the Rubik's Cube. The difficulty was indeed much higher than that of a normal 3x3 Rubik's Cube... after all, the patterns were completely different, and the complexity of the patterns alone could stump many people.

However, Leng Yihan, who had already completed the Heavenly Dao Inscription, felt that this was too simple. He didn't know why, but it was very simple and could be easily pieced together.

Then he started twisting, starting a little clumsy but gradually increasing his speed. It took Leng Yihan thirty seconds to solve the Rubik's Cube and realize just how monstrous the improvement in his talent was.

He solved such a difficult Rubik's Cube in 30 seconds without ever having learned it...

The Demon King has more and more cheat codes... Speaking of which, he has a lot of inscriptions, right? He has so many inscriptions, right?! Just how terrifying was he at his peak?!

Leng Yihan grew increasingly terrified as he thought about it. He suddenly remembered that the Sixth Examiner had said he had killed a True God, and perhaps... it was when he destroyed that high-level world... (Leng Yihan thought that someone in the high-level world knew a True God and had asked for help, but he didn't know that each high-level world had a Guardian God, and one who was quite powerful, approaching the level of a mid-level god. The Guardian God was killed by the Demon King, but was also seriously injured in the process. Lu Youmei killed the weakest True God among all the True Gods, who had already lost the will to live.)

After twisting the Rubik's Cube, there was no reaction. Just when Leng Yihan thought it might be broken, a click sounded, and the Rubik's Cube opened, revealing what was inside.

The object gradually enlarged and then appeared before Leng Yihan's eyes...

“Holy shit…” Leng Yihan blurted out instinctively.

The person inside the Rubik's Cube...

And...it was someone I knew...

270 Acquaintances and the Seventeenth Level (36)

"..."

"..."

Leng Yihan and the person who emerged from the Rubik's Cube stared at each other, neither of them uttering a sound.

Leng Yihan's facial expression was extremely distorted, or rather, complex, mainly because he didn't know what kind of expression to make...

"What's with that expression, Leng Yihan?" she said, her voice pleasant to the ear... but the chill beneath it was truly unsettling.

"Sister, why don't you put on some clothes first? I'm afraid the Demon King will kill me..." Leng Yihan said softly.

"Hmm?" The person raised their voice slightly.

“…No, please pretend I didn’t say anything,” Leng Yihan immediately changed her tune.

Even so, the person somehow produced a shrine maiden's outfit and put it on on the spot.

"Sister...do you usually wear this outfit..." Leng Yihan.

"I used to be a shrine maiden at a small shrine, but then something happened. By the way, you're quite something, being able to calmly watch a girl get dressed without turning your back," the person said.

“How could I possibly dare to imply any blasphemy from you…” Leng Yihan’s lips twitched, but she still turned around. “I’m afraid that any strange ideas I might have will be chopped off by you before the Demon King can kill them…”

"...Can we not mention him?" The man's voice carried a hint of displeasure. "This person...I find him very annoying."

"The thing I, Leng Yihan, like to do most is to say NO to those who are arrogant!" Leng Yihan smiled. "Besides... your current strength is not as good as mine, so you are basically starting from scratch."

“But it would be easy for me to catch up,” the man said.

"Really... I must say, you truly are a genius. I envy you so much," Leng Yihan said. "Lu Youmei..."

“You’re not bad either. With the Heavenly Dao Imprint, your foundation won’t be much worse than mine,” Lu Youmei said.

"So you had a trick up your sleeve... The reason the Demon King wanted to kill me so badly is probably because of you," Leng Yihan said.

“I have quite a few ways to protect myself, otherwise how would I have the confidence to confront that guy?” Lu Youmei said.

"Do you still have any now?" Leng Yihan asked.

"That's all." - Lu Youmei.

The two of them were immediately caught in an awkward staring contest.

"Tell me... what would happen if I told the Demon King that your soul is inside me?" Leng Yihan asked.

"Please, please don't do this." Lu Youmei said.

"...Don't you like him a lot?" Leng Yihan looked into Lu Youmei's eyes and said.

“…I like Si Chuming.” Lu Youmei lowered her head, “but…not the Demon King…”

“If you just talk to him, he will change for you,” Leng Yihan said.

“That’s what I thought too. When I became Bai Xiuyue and confronted him directly, I realized that he…” Lu Youmei bit her lip, “His heart has been… has been corrupted by the consciousness of the previous Demon King. He… has changed…”

"Wait...wasn't his goal to revive you...?" Leng Yihan asked, puzzled.

"Have you thought about what he would do after he resurrects me?" Lu Youmei asked.

“Huh? I think… we should have a wedding together…” Leng Yihan said.

“I’ll tell you, he’ll only keep killing,” Lu Youmei said. “He’ll only marry me after he’s killed all his enemies. Otherwise, the wedding will just be an assassin’s tournament.”

“…” Leng Yihan was speechless.

“So… I want to trouble you,” Lu Youmei said. “I want to trouble you… to create a body for me.”

“I can’t…” Leng Yihan immediately said, “I can’t do that.”

“I know!” Lu Youmei nodded. “So I want to ask you to trouble Leng Binglan to accept the inheritance of the six-pointed star and then create a body for me. The high position of the six-pointed star is a combination of creation and sealing.”

“I’m hearing a language I don’t understand…” Leng Yihan said, “But… do we really have to send Binglan…”

I felt a little reluctant to let him leave... How could I possibly say that...?

“She is the successor of the Hexagram, and there is only her. There is no one else,” Lu Youmei said. “She is indeed the most suitable person to inherit the Hexagram’s legacy. You know the divine oracle, right?”

"Oh right... I remember you were the one who brought Tianyue..."

“Yes, this is a game that Tianyue and I planned,” Lu Youmei said. “It’s to select people who can fight against the demons in another world.”

"What kind of plot is this..." Leng Yihan complained.

“Then, inherit the eight portions of power treasured by Tianyue, and continue your cultivation,” Lu Youmei added.

"The Netherworld series?" Leng Yihan said subconsciously.

“That’s right, the legacy of the Eight Gods of the Underworld, this is one of our trump cards for turning the tide,” Lu Youmei said. “And I will keep it in your soul space. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me, and I can guide you to the best of my ability.”

“…I have a feeling that you’re all hiding something from me. Each of you…has your own interests, right?” Leng Yihan said.

“You’ve already said it,” said Lu Youmei.

“…Alright, then you can stay here.” Leng Yihan sighed.

"Oh right, this Rubik's Cube is Leng Yihan's weapon, so... you can have it." Lu Youmei suddenly remembered something, and with a wave of her hand, the Rubik's Cube appeared in Lu Youmei's hand.

"How do I use this Rubik's Cube?" Leng Yihan asked.

“You’ve seen it before, simply injecting energy, twisting a Rubik’s Cube, and then turning it into a weapon you need,” Lu Youmei said.

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Leng Yihan recalled the time when he was fighting Bai Xiuyue. Bai Xiuyue was playing well when she suddenly started twisting the Rubik's Cube, and afterwards, her weapon could change at will...

“By the way, you can practice with all sorts of weapons in the Oracle.” Lu Youmei suddenly said, “This Rubik’s Cube… I don’t know what it is either, but in short, it’s not simple. It can transform into any weapon, and its quality changes with the user’s strength, and it is very well suited to the user.”

“They’re very strong…” Leng Yihan said.

“Yes, very strong,” Lu Youmei said. “Indeed very strong…”

"That……"

"There's some commotion outside!" Just as Leng Yihan was about to say he would take his leave, Lu Youmei suddenly said, "Someone has advanced to the seventeenth level!"

"Huh?" Upon hearing her words, Leng Yihan immediately left her soul space and ran out, crashing right out the door.

then……

"Ow..."

"pain!"

The two little girls squatted at the doorway, covering their foreheads.

“…What are you two doing?” Leng Yihan complained.

Although he turned into three little girls after he came out.

"N-nothing..." Leng Binglan stammered.

"Hmm..." Kang Meng looked away.

Hmm... Kang Meng looks much better.

"Ah...it's an old friend, but they've all become so small...so cute~?" Lu Youmei's voice suddenly rang in Leng Yihan's ear.

“What…” Leng Yihan suddenly shut her mouth.

"Hmm? Brother?" Seeing Leng Yihan's actions, Leng Binglan couldn't help but show a hint of doubt.

"Ah...it's nothing. Luo Qi seems to have broken through to the seventeenth level. Let's go and take a look!" Leng Yihan said, then bypassed the two and rushed out.

"Rocky? Are you with the Titans now?" asked Lu Youmei.

“Yes…” Leng Yihan answered softly.

“You don’t need to speak, you just need to think it in your heart, I can hear you,” Lu Youmei said.

Hmm... can you hear me like this?

Leng Yihan tried speaking in her mind.

“Yes, that’s fine,” Lu Youmei replied.

Leng Yihan didn't think much of it; Luo Qi breaking through to the seventeenth level meant something very simple.

He... will soon face the Demon King once again...

271 Departure (37)

"Thanks to you all, I've reached the seventeenth level now, which can be considered as fulfilling my long-cherished wish." In the hall where Leng Yihan and the other six had met Luo Qi before, they met Luo Qi again.

However, this time... the power within Luo Qi was completely different from before. Although he tried his best to hide it, Leng Yihan could still feel the fierce power within Luo Qi.

"You're too kind. I just hope Chief Luo Qi can help me get back what I want," Leng Yihan said politely.

Six days have passed since Leng Yihan inscribed the Heavenly Dao Mark. According to Lu Youmei, Luo Qi should now be at the 17th level, 4th grade.

"That's easy to deal with. Even if the Demon King is currently at the 17th rank, level 9, I still have the power to fight him." Roach seemed very confident. Indeed, the Titan race has an innate advantage in talent and is a race favored by the world. It's not surprising that they have some trump cards. Moreover, the Demon King is not at his peak right now. What level can he recover to in just a few days?
