黎 En became a Dead Angle Person (si jiao ren) in order to escape the entanglement of the Dead Angle, embarking on this final path.

And Lan Meng, if what they said is true, should be the very first person in the Twin Stars to merge with the world and become a Dead Angle Monster (si jiao guai wu).

He, in order to escape the identity of a Dead Angle Monster, laid the foundation for everything in advance.

But neither of them found a way to completely escape the Dead Angle.

They just forged a path.

That was all.

And now, that only path is scattered within the hundreds of thousands of clones of Li En. To obtain it, they must be killed one by one.

In the past, he tried to bypass the forbidden knowledge (jinji xueshi), attempting to have each clone do a small thing, which would then be combined to complete the final hope.

But this method was too slow, too slow...and even now, there was little hope in sight.

"If you want to obtain the forbidden knowledge, you must kill all the Li En," Xu Meng said, looking at Li Cheng颐. He was very clear about the relationship between Sindora and Li Cheng颐 in the Garden of Destiny.

"First, hand over the Stone of Concealment (yinni zhi shi)," Li Cheng颐 said after a moment of silence, reaching out his hand.

Xu Meng looked at Mina beside him.

The latter threw something, and immediately a dirt-yellow stone, wrapped in black hemp rope, flew towards Li Cheng颐.

*Pa*.

He caught it with one hand and examined the stone.

"This is it?"

"Yes, this is it. We only have one of these. This thing is made from the original bodies of other Dead Angles. Actually, the principle is to temporarily imitate a fake you, and let it enter the Dead Angle to die in your place," Mina explained.

"This can be considered a trick, but it can effectively delay the difficulty of Dead Angle stacking, and it can provide stability for a long time."

"How long can it provide stability?" Li Cheng颐 looked down at his heart.

Sure enough, the hard metallic chains from before had reappeared on his chest.

"Usually two to four Dead Angle cycles (si jiao zhouqi). This thing was researched by Li En. In order to escape fate, he cloned himself many, many times. Some of those Li En mastered a lot of cutting-edge technology."

Li Cheng颐 was silent for a moment. As an ordinary person, to be able to do this, thinking about it now, Li En was indeed considered a genius, taking the power of money, wealth, and technology to the extreme.

"Then, how can I find more Stones of Concealment?" Li Cheng颐 asked.

"Find the original body (yuant體) in a Dead Angle, and then kill it. Before it regenerates and revives, seal it and bring it into the Black Sea. As long as it doesn't have the nourishment of the native Dead Angle, the original body will turn into a Stone of Concealment," Xu Meng said simply.

"This is plundering?"

"If you want to live, someone must die in your place."

Li Cheng颐 was silent.

This was the price.

Everything gained since coming to this world came with a price. The Stone of Concealment was no different.

"Also, if you don't want the world to lose its balance, everything to be destroyed and restarted, returning to the very beginning thousands of years ago, it's best to stop trying to save all the Dead Angle People. Dead Angle People are the material to fill the gaps in small Dead Angles. Without their death, small Dead Angles, like bubbles, will devour and merge with each other through the opened gaps to form large Dead Angles. Large Dead Angles will merge into super-giant Dead Angles, completely swallowing our world, and ultimately destroying everything prematurely," Xu Meng explained.

Right now, they couldn't win in a fight, and they didn't want to die again for nothing. Especially him, he had died to the point of almost losing his mind. If he died again, he would surely turn into a monster. His self-awareness would be completely extinguished.

So the only way was to cooperate.

"...I'll try it first."

Li Cheng颐 picked up the Stone of Concealment and smashed it against his chains.

*Boom*.

The chains made a crisp sound, and they were actually touched!

He had tried it himself before, and he couldn't touch them no matter what he did.

But now...

The chain disappeared.

Just a touch, and the thick chain was transferred to the fist-sized Stone of Concealment.

The chain shrunk in proportion and embedded itself in the center of the stone, as if it had grown there from the beginning.

"It's done." Xu Meng breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes towards Li Cheng颐 also containing a hint of complexity and shock. "Your Dead Angle is too strong. This Stone of Concealment can only support you once...In other words, after one Dead Angle cycle, you must face the next Dead Angle yourself."

"You mean, if the Stone of Concealment is strong enough, it can withstand more Dead Angle occurrences?" Li Cheng颐 understood his words.

"That's right. This is the method Li En summarized, but the stronger the Stone of Concealment, the more powerful the original body it produces. And a Dead Angle will only have one original body. It is born with the Dead Angle and is the core of everything. Once it's taken away, the Dead Angle will also lose its only hope."

Destroy others, or destroy yourself.

This is the final path for Dead Angle People to choose.

"Now, you know everything you should know, except for the forbidden knowledge about hope. What else do you want to do?" Xu Meng looked at Li Cheng颐, waiting for his decision.

"One last question...How do I know what you just said is true?" Li Cheng颐 said.

"You took such a powerful Seal Ring (yin huan) expert as your teacher. If something happens to you, they will definitely sense it. If we don't want to be killed to the point of losing our self-awareness, we naturally can't deceive you," Xu Meng said helplessly.

He hadn't felt this way in many years...

"Oh right, one last question." Li Cheng颐 suddenly thought of something. "The Eternal Book of Wishes (yongheng xuyuan zhi shu)...Do you know where it is?"

"...That's just a legend. No one knows whether that book is actually with us. Only Lan Meng saw it initially, and from that, created the Pseudo Book of Wishes."

"I understand...I'll arrange things on the Garden of Destiny side. Here in Far Shadow (Yuan Ying), I have a request. My team member, Sindora...arrange for a Li En to meet him."

"I'm afraid...that won't work. Once they meet, the world's fate will once again lose balance...If he stops searching, it will lead to many chain reactions..."

"I'll handle anything that happens!" Li Cheng颐 interrupted him.

Xu Meng looked at the jade pendant in his hand, speechless.

"Finally, give me a way to contact you," Li Cheng颐 said.

Xu Meng raised his hand, and a blue electric light shot out, landing in Li Cheng颐's hand, turning into a white stone engraved with the Black Sea words "远影" (Yuan Ying - Far Shadow).

"Crush it to contact us. It will automatically restore itself after the connection is broken."

"Good. Then...see you next time."

Li Cheng颐 nodded slightly, his figure suddenly twisting, automatically dissipating like a soap bubble.

"...! Spatial teleportation ability...and the positioning is extremely skilled," Mina said in shock.

"Another new ability? This Li Cheng颐 is too mysterious. Every once in a while, he comes up with new abilities."

Xu Meng sighed.

These old fellows had cultivated hard for many years, using a lot of resources and technology to build up their powerful abilities, but in front of the other party, they seemed to be as easy to obtain as things picked up on the side of the road.

"Leader, do you think he'll really do what he says?" Black Squirrel asked in a deep voice.

"Yes," Xu Meng nodded lightly. "As long as he doesn't want everything he cherishes to fall into destruction...But once most of the people he cherishes disappear, it's hard to say."

"So...we're still the same as before?" Mina asked.

"Yes, still the same as before. Hopefully, he can forge a new path." Xu Meng didn't say more, his figure suddenly scattering, turning into invisible electric light and disappearing.

Suiyang.

Longmen Diao was wearing a white swimsuit, accompanying Pan En in swimming in the warm water pool.

Swimming is the best way to restore physical fitness, especially swimming in a pool of recovery potion.

A purification system was constantly purifying the impurities and dirt in the water and injecting new drugs to maintain a fixed concentration ratio.

At this time, Longmen Diao was still in the form of Rainbow Candy, wearing a tight white swimsuit, outlining a beautiful body curve. Although there was no chest, the other parts were still well-proportioned.

The pure white swimsuit and fair skin complemented each other, long hair, beautiful profile, happy smile.

Slowly relaxed Pan En's originally tired heart.

Strictly speaking, although he was only eight years old, adding the time in the Dead Angle, his physical age should already be eleven years old...

His own Dead Angle, other people's Dead Angles, added together, he had entered at least hundreds of times.

At this time, looking at Longmen Diao's figure, although the other party still treated him as a child, he...could already feel his blood boiling...

*Poof*.

Just as Longmen Diao jumped into the pool and swam freely, like a white mermaid, towards Pan En on the shore.

Suddenly, the space twisted, and a figure suddenly appeared above Longmen Diao's bare back.

A tall figure wearing gorgeous purple-black armor.

It was Li Cheng颐.

He stepped on Longmen Diao's back, floating in the air, and looked towards Pan En.

"Hmm? I clearly targeted Longmen Diao? Where is the person?"

Pan En was stunned and quickly got up, pointing below.

"In the water! In the water!!" he shouted.

Longmen Diao was blocked in the water and couldn't breathe. Not only that, but because of Li Cheng颐's sudden appearance, he choked on water the moment he tried to breathe.

At this time, he was struggling underwater.

But his struggling power was too weak, meaningless in the face of Li Cheng颐's current weight, which was calculated in tons.

Hearing Pan En's shout, Li Cheng颐 lowered his head and noticed Longmen Diao, who was unable to get up because he was being stepped on.

He quickly floated into the air, grabbed Longmen Diao's hair with one hand, and lifted him up.

"Hmm? Why are you still like this?" Li Cheng颐 was a little surprised. This guy maintained the Rainbow Candy form even in daily life? Could it be...he really got a sex change!?

"Cough cough..." Longmen Diao coughed hard, spitting out a lot of water, and finally caught his breath.

Throwing the person to the shore, Li Cheng颐 looked at Pan En.

"Prepare yourself. Call a team meeting immediately. I have important things to announce. You come too, Pan En." Li Cheng颐's voice was low, and his light golden eyes seemed to be able to see through the thoughts hidden in the other party's heart at this time.

"...Yes." Pan En lowered his head, but as soon as he lowered his head, he saw Longmen Diao's fair legs struggling to vomit water on the shore. His face immediately turned red, and he looked away again.

"You don't possibly, like him?!" Li Cheng颐 widened his eyes and asked using Blood Yuan (xueyuan) to wrap the sound.

"..." Pan En was silent.

"..." Li Cheng颐 was also silent. He had just finished talking to people about the major event of the world's destruction, but turned around and encountered this damned thing.

Pan En had already gotten up in a hurry and ran to Longmen Diao's side, helping him pat his back.

"Are you okay, Rainbow Father! I'll help you pat your back!"

"..." This name made Li Cheng颐 twitch his mouth. Was this guy really not afraid of being beaten to death by Rainbow Candy?

Whatever, he was too lazy to care about these small things now. Time was tight, the Stone of Concealment was in effect, and he had to maximize the use of this safe time as soon as possible.

And the best use was naturally to go to Midraan.

One Dead Angle cycle was as short as two weeks, and as long as a month. Using the Stone of Concealment, if it took effect, it meant that he would have an interval gap of two Dead Angle cycles.

In Midraan, this time would be at least several decades!
