Rubik's Cube Octopus

These words were only in Ariel's mind, and therefore Zhou Qing was unaware of them.

But he didn't dwell on these thoughts. Instead, he felt more and more that choosing a Rubik's Cube Octopus as Romantina's Second Spirit Ring was absolutely the most suitable choice!

Isn't his wish that Romantina's Brain Martial Soul could develop functions similar to supercomputers and Simulator?

The Rubik's Cube Octopus, having reached the level of Hundred-Thousand-Year, is capable of mimicking the heavens and earth and creating Mental World, making it a perfect match for Romantina!

As for the question of whether Ariel's words are true or false...

Putting aside the fact that Ariel's identity is a mystery, even if what she says is all lies, just telling stories, or just fooling people, the Rubik's Cube Octopus is still a perfect match for Romantina.

As time went by, one Rubik's Cube Octopus after another emerged from the seabed, climbed up the reefs, and reached the top or the Blue Silver Tree, occupying a high position to better receive the moonlight.

Meanwhile, the crew members on the ship lowered the small boats hanging from the side of the large ship, took fishing nets, and went down in twos and threes to begin catching fish, shrimp, and shellfish in the Reef Sea Area.

Ariel said, "Once the Rubik's Cube Octopus leaves the seawater, it can only exert 30% of its power. Our large ship cannot sail into those narrow reefs. You need to choose a suitable Rubik's Cube Octopus to go down. You can take a small boat, or if you are confident in your strength, you can jump down directly and leap and swim back and forth between the reefs."

"At night, some Sea Soul Beast are more active, but generally speaking, they will not actively attack ships on the sea, let alone jump onto the reefs."

After thanking Ariel for telling him this, Zhou Qing borrowed a small boat from her, and together with Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Romantina, they boarded the boat and sailed through the reefs in search of the Rubik's Cube Octopus of the right age.

"How's the other one?"

Tang San noticed a Rubik's Cube Octopus with nine golden spiral coral rings perched atop a Blue Silver Tree not far away. "Its age is at least nine hundred."

"What do you think?" Zhou Qing asked Romantina.

"This is it."

Romantina agreed.

Although she was confident that she could withstand a thousand-year-old Soul Ring, she knew she shouldn't stay in this sea area for too long and had to finish the battle quickly.

Furthermore, since Soul Ring can Secondary Refinement, there is no need to choose a thousand-year-old Rubik's Cube Octopus. Choosing an individual with a high age limit is only to save time in increasing the age limit of the Soul Ring during future cultivation.

The group rowed the boat to the vicinity of the Sea Heart Stone where the Blue Silver Tree grew.

This Blue Silver Tree wasn't tall, only two meters. Zhou Qing, with his Martial Soul attached, leaped up. His second Soul Ring flashed, and his blood and soul power surged, instantly increasing his speed. A faint blue halo appeared on his legs, accompanied by a slight chilly wind. He was like a nimble rabbit, and in the blink of an eye, he jumped to the top of the Blue Silver Tree.

This is Zhou Qing's Second Soul Skill after obtaining the Dancing Winter Rabbit: Winter Chant.

After using this Soul Skill, Zhou Qing can draw upon the two Heaven and Earth Yuan Power to strengthen his Qi and Blood and increase his speed.

Furthermore, based on the circulation of Qi and Blood in the Blood Circulation System, it can even generate a form similar to the power of Yongchun.

That is, Winter Chant Leg Strength.

However, at this moment, Zhou Qing only used his Second Soul Skill to enhance his leg strength and speed, without using any form of attack.

After leaping onto the Blue Silver Tree, Zhou Qing discovered that the soft Blue Silver Grass, after twisting and coiling into the Blue Silver Tree, was quite sturdy and could even support his body.

But he didn't pay much attention to it, just staring at the Rubik's Cube Octopus in front of him.

This 900-year-old Rubik's Cube Octopus sensed the danger, but after coming ashore, it only had 30% of its strength left. Although its eight tentacles were agile, they were not fast.

Zhou Qing reached out with both arms and grabbed it in his hands.

However, the octopus's tentacles meandered and clung to Zhou Qing's arm, tightly Entangling it. They were wet and slippery, and pulling them even slightly caused a painful sting to his skin.

"Hey, it really does look just like an octopus!"

Zhou Qing stopped trying to pry it off and let his arms Entangling by the Rubik's Cube Octopus the size of a human head as he jumped down from the Blue Silver Tree.

The small boat rocked a few times before coming to a steady stop.

"This Rubik's Cube Octopus looks so weird!"

From a distance, the Rubik's Cube Octopus can only be described as having a unique appearance, but upon closer inspection, Xiao Wu exclaimed, "Good heavens!" Its sticky tentacles and the densely packed suckers on its bottom are enough to send chills down one's spine.

Romantina stared at the eight tentacles Entangling around Zhou Qing's arm, her thoughts drifting to something else, and her cheeks suddenly flushed.

"Hey, don't just stare!"

Zhou Qing noticed Romantina's expression and said speechlessly, "Take out the dagger, stab it into the head of this Rubik's Cube Octopus, and kill it. I don't want to spend too much time with these sticky tentacles."

"Oh."

Romantina hurriedly took out a dagger from her Waist Pouch and plunged it into the bottom of the cube-shaped brain of the Rubik's Cube Octopus, then stirred it violently a few times.

"Puff--"

The Rubik's Cube Octopus's mouthparts were aimed at Romantina, spitting out a stream of black ink that covered Romantina entire face in black. The ink splattered onto Xiao Wu's body as well, staining her neck and chest with a jet of black ink.

"This octopus can even spit ink!" Xiao Wu was about to reach out and scoop up some seawater, but Zhou Qing stopped her, saying, "Don't wash it yet. Let's wait until we get back to the big ship. This ink has a strong fishy smell and a Sisi sweetness. If it dissolves in seawater, it might attract the attention of other Sea Soul Beast."

Helpless, Xiao Wu could only endure it for the time being.

Romantina then complained, "Zhou Qing, you didn't deliberately choose such a lewd Soul Beast for me, did you?"

"Don't have such dirty thoughts."

Upon seeing a Soul Ring appear, tinged with yellow and purple, Zhou Qing urged Romantina to absorb it quickly, lest things get complicated.

After Romantina Martial Soul Possession to her body and drew the Soul Ring to her head, it took her an hour to absorb it and Secondary Refinement.

On this Soul Ring, which is yellow with a hint of purple, white patterns appeared, outlining eight tentacles resembling those of an octopus.

Zhou Qing could already imagine that when Romantina officially used her Soul Skill, the eight tentacle-like lines would flicker and then outline the brain of a cube-shaped Rubik's Cube Octopus in the center of the Soul Ring, making it look as if the Rubik's Cube Octopus Entangling its eight tentacles around the Soul Ring and was perched inside it.

"What is this Soul Skill?"

Xiao Wu asked impatiently, "Could it be that it makes Spiritual Power spray out like ink from an octopus, causing people to lose their way?"

Zhou Qing was also nervous, wanting to know if Romantina's Second Soul Skill was as he had imagined, and whether it could enhance her ability to collect, analyze, and process information using her Martial Soul.

In fact, Romantina's Soul Skill did possess the abilities Zhou Qing had envisioned, but the way they manifested were indeed slightly unusual...
