In the moment of slumber, Wei Chen remained completely unaware of everything happening around him.
He had no idea how strong Yan Qiqi truly was. However, the amount of energy she was channeling into him now was immense, and the damage she sustained was almost negligible.
If it weren't for her concern that Wei Chen might not be able to handle such a surge of energy all at once, Yan Qiqi would have continued to pour more energy into him. His strength would have skyrocketed further, potentially reaching the Fourth Level of Earth Soul Realm and directly challenging the Three Trials.
Wei Chen did not know what kind of energy this was, but he was certain of one thing: as that energy flowed into his body and before he lost consciousness, he could already sense that it was not Soul Power—definitely not Soul Power.
The energy emanating from Yan Qiqi was no longer Soul Power. Within the Magic Stone Space, there was hardly any Soul Power present.
After the sun rose, the environment within the Magic Stone Space improved, and the atmosphere no longer felt like Soul Power.
Perhaps it was the highest form of energy within the realm of understanding of the Demon Lotus Emperor—spiritual energy?
Wei Chen could not say for sure.
After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes.
As soon as he did, he saw the beautiful and adorable Yan Qiqi gazing at him with her big, watery eyes.
"Brother, you're awake?"
Seeing Wei Chen regain consciousness, Yan Qiqi's lips curved into a gentle smile.
Wei Chen nodded; it was quite obvious, wasn't it?
"Yan Qiqi, have you helped me increase my strength again?"
"Well, this time is different from the previous occasions. In those instances, I experienced some losses, but this time, my losses are almost negligible and can be replenished in an instant."
"That's good to hear."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen felt a bit relieved. The last thing he wanted was for Yan Qiqi to sacrifice too much for him. Yan Qiqi had already been exploited by that evil bastard, the Demon Lotus Emperor, and Wei Chen no longer wanted to see her suffer like that.
But since the losses were minimal, there was nothing more for Wei Chen to worry about.
Feeling his strength had risen to the Human Soul Realm Peak, Wei Chen felt as if he were dreaming.
The transition from the Human Soul Realm's mid-level to the Human Soul Realm Peak felt almost as simple as eating a meal during certain special moments.
He just needed to sleep and wake up to break through.
He understood deeply that all of this was due to the inheritance of the Demon Lotus Emperor.
Without the Demon Lotus Emperor's legacy, he would never have encountered these fortuitous events and opportunities.
Everything came from the inheritance of the Demon Lotus Emperor, including this crisis; it was likely that the Demon Lotus Emperor had known about it long ago.
Realizing this, Wei Chen suddenly awakened to a thought: "Since the Demon Lotus Emperor knows all of this and still acted, then he must also know that if Yan Qiqi dies, I will hold a grudge against him for life. A shrewd person like him would never just stand by and watch everything unfold."
"Then, regarding the Solar Crisis, I will definitely find a solution with my own strength."
"The solution that the Demon Lotus Emperor did not reveal to me may not be too difficult. With my current strength, brute force alone won't work; I don't possess such a Divine Bow capable of shooting down the sun."
"In that case, there is only one possibility left."
Wei Chen's gaze shifted slightly, his eyes narrowing into a slit, two beams of brilliance shooting forth!
"So that's how it is! It must be Yan Qiqi. The Demon Lotus Emperor dared to pass the Magic Stone Space inheritance to me, daring to leave Yan Qiqi here for me to rescue. He must have guessed that I could do it."
"He gave me the Demon Lotus Heart; the Demon Lotus Inheritance is because he values my Formation Assignment!"
"Exactly, it's all about formations! To resolve the Solar Crisis, with my strength, I can only rely on formations!"
Wei Chen felt a surge of excitement as he had found a preliminary direction to solve the Solar Crisis. Although it wasn't a complete solution yet, it was better than being anxious and clueless.
"The paralyzed Demon Lotus Emperor must know something; he just doesn't want to tell me. I need to make sure to ask him clearly later."
Once he made a decision, Wei Chen would not hesitate.
He turned to Yan Qiqi and said, "Yan Qiqi, I have something I need to take care of alone for a while. Can you give me some time?"
"Sure! When you're done, just call for me in your heart, and I'll come out to keep you company."
Yan Qiqi smiled sweetly, her figure flickering before she vanished in an instant.
"Yan Qiqi's strength is far beyond mine and even stronger than Gu Yuehong. Her power must be roughly on par with that old rascal Donghua."
"If I can get her out sooner, it would give me an extra advantage when dealing with Donghua."
Wei Chen was never the type to sit idly by. With Donghua posing a significant threat to him, how could he just watch everything unfold?
Before Donghua took action, Wei Chen would make his move first.
“Demon Lotus Emperor, I know you're here. Come out quickly; I have something to ask you.”
Wei Chen shouted around him.
There was no response.
“Stop pretending; I know you're here. If you want the Magic Stone Space to survive, if you want to continue cultivating here and gain an advantage, then come out. Otherwise, I'm done with this.”
“Alright, alright, I'm truly scared of you now.”
The voice of the Demon Lotus Emperor echoed in Wei Chen's mind, and in an instant, a gray mist appeared before him.
It was indeed the Demon Lotus Emperor.
“Demon Lotus Emperor, you finally decided to show yourself. I thought you were going to keep playing dead,” Wei Chen said disdainfully, mocking him.
The Demon Lotus Emperor replied lightly, “I just didn't want to interrupt your sweet moments with Yan Qiqi. Tsk tsk, it turns out you're not such a bad person after all. I thought you would just go for that beauty directly.”
“Oh? So you plan to hide and watch the show? I never expected the great Demon Lotus Emperor to have such wicked tastes.”
“Pretend I didn’t say anything.” The Demon Lotus Emperor shook his head and continued, “What do you need me for? Have you found a good way to break the Solar Crisis?”
“No, but I have some guesses and wanted to confirm them with you. Demon Lotus Emperor, you brought me here, and with Yan Qiqi's predicament at hand, you must think that I can find a way to deal with the Solar Crisis, right?” Wei Chen asked.
The Demon Lotus Emperor answered, “That's correct. You must have figured it out by now. I chose you to accept the Demon Lotus Inheritance because of your Formation Assignment. Perhaps you can work on the formation; it might just work.”
“Why didn't you tell me this earlier?”
"I told you, which do you think is more suitable: what I say or what you come up with yourself? You need to feel a sense of crisis; the solutions you think of on your own are the real direction to take. What I tell you won't have much effect. Right now, you've only found one possible solution; you still don't know how to resist the Solar Crisis. The rest is something you need to consider yourself, which is why I won't tell you everything. If you follow that line of thought, you'll find the answer. I have a vague feeling that formations are invincible; as long as they are set up well, they can withstand anything."
"In my previous life, I suffered greatly at the hands of a Formation Master in Hua Xia World. I believe in the power of formations; even when I was unbeatable at that time, I could not withstand their might."
"And you have Formation Assignment; you should dig deep into your Formation Assignment. I'm sure the solution lies within the formation. Yan Qiqi is such a lovely girl; you don’t want her to die, and neither do I want that. I've already told you, keeping her here is a last resort for me. Moreover, I have my own selfish motives; I'm training your resolve. Without some pressure, you wouldn't be fully committed to solving the crisis here."
"Pressure brings motivation; you should be feeling quite motivated now, right?"
Looking at the Demon Lotus Emperor's smug smile, Wei Chen clenched his fists, wanting nothing more than to punch him.
But after a moment's hesitation, he dismissed that thought.
The Demon Lotus Emperor was currently in a Soul Body form; physical attacks couldn't harm him.
"Demon Lotus Emperor, what if I ultimately can't find a solution?"
"What can be done? You will lose the Magic Stone Space; it will turn into ruins, burying your beloved woman within. You will never want to come back here again. And after receiving so many benefits from Yan Qiqi, your strength skyrocketing, you'll feel guilty for a lifetime. The Magic Stone Space is a treasure—a vast treasure—and it would be wasted in your hands."
"Think carefully about this; just remember my words: formations are invincible and the source of all solutions. This world is filled with rules; no matter where you are, you must live under those rules. However, the existence of formations can break those rules."
"Just like a battle I experienced in my previous life—though it took place within Hua Xia World, it triggered a formation that transported me to a desolate land where human power could double while my strength was halved. That formation wasn't particularly advanced; I'm just using it as an example."
"For you, having the Demon Lotus Heart means that even if you don't cultivate, your strength will still increase rapidly. You should spend all your time researching formations; perhaps one day you'll create a formation that allows you to gather the power of the entire world while you're inside it—then your strength will soar."
The Demon Lotus Emperor looked deeply at Wei Chen and continued, "Yan Qiqi believes in you, and so do I. You won’t let us down, will you?"
"And there's one more thing I need to tell you: I'll remain in the Magic Stone Space. If you're unable to resolve the Solar Crisis, I'll die here too. I swear by the name of the Demon Lotus Emperor that I'll stay here until either I die or see you resolve the Solar Crisis. Will this increase your pressure and motivation?"
The Demon Lotus Emperor gambled with his own life, wagering the existence or extinction of his soul.
He was betting that Wei Chen could succeed.
But Wei Chen himself was at a loss. The idea of using formations to resist the Solar Crisis seemed absurd. Even though everyone believed it was feasible, and Wei Chen thought it might be possible, he searched through every formation in his mind and found nothing that could withstand the Solar Crisis.
As Wei Chen hesitated, the Demon Lotus Emperor gave him a strange smile and said, "Yan Qiqi has helped you enhance your strength, so I will lend you a hand as well. The next three months are time saved by Yan Qiqi and me working together for you. You must make good use of it to ensure our survival."
At that moment, a thread of mysterious energy penetrated into Wei Chen's Earth Soul.
That energy was something Wei Chen had encountered countless times before.
Yet it felt incredibly familiar.
It was as if it were the earth, the mountains and rivers, the sun and moon, water and fire...
"What is this?"
"Earth Soul Realm Martial Soul, Spatial Martial Soul!"
