In front of the Teleportation Magic Array deep within the Ancient Castle, a faint ghostly light quietly flowed.

Luo Yan stepped toward the Teleportation Array emitting sporadic ghostly light, only to discover that the group of souls that had originally followed him stopped outside the Magic Array, hesitant to approach.

As he had guessed, pure souls cannot transfer through the Subspace channel without attaching to a medium they can rely on.

This may be related to the peculiar nature of Subspace.

Luo Yan halted his steps and looked back at them, pondering for a moment before speaking slowly.

"Since you have chosen me, I naturally will not leave you unattended."

"Your bones will be resurrected in the cemetery of the Great Graveyard as Corpse Ghosts, pledging loyalty to me, serving for fifty years."

"After fifty years, I will honor your own will, allowing you to reincarnate into the race you desire, entering a new cycle of rebirth."

Luo Yan conveyed his will to those invisible souls through the mouth of Youyou.

Upon hearing the promise from the Divine, those souls shivered in their abstract forms, showing gratitude and relief.

Their war was not yet over.

But at least there was an end in sight.

Not bad.

Better than endlessly being caught in this cycle of torment...

They devoutly knelt on one knee, bowing their heads to express their loyalty and respect to Luo Yan, then transformed into ethereal white light points, slowly merging beneath the massive Demon King statue on Resurrection Square.

That was the position of the Faith Crystal.

The acolytes of the Great Graveyard would regularly rotate, bringing the Crystal back to the Great Graveyard, awaiting the summons of "Demon King's servants."

The quality of these souls was quite good.

Some were Fine Steel, others Silver, and even a few Gold ones among them... Moreover, these entities did not occupy Luo Yan's share of Influence, belonging to the quota extracted from the Seed of Creation on the Kao Planet.

Luo Yan didn't need so many servants for the moment, but he could let acolyte profession players train them... anyway, it's almost like they're under his command.

After finishing these tasks, he gave Sarah a look to follow, then stepped into the Teleportation Array, amidst the acolytes' prayers and chanting, returning to the Gana Continent, which was being drawn into a new storm...

...

Deep within the Sun Step Mountain Range, netherworldly-colored light flickered, and three figures appeared on the Teleportation Array one after another.

"Phew! Finally back!" Taufu rushed to the Forest, eagerly inhaling the fresh air, with a look of pure delight on her dragon face.

However, perhaps due to an overly forceful deep breath, she accidentally let something slip, and with a thud, something fell into the grass behind her.

Before Taufu could turn to see what had dropped, Sarah skillfully picked it up, calmly tucking it into her bag.

Unlike the agile cat and lizard, Luo Yan, who followed them off the Teleportation Array, appeared pale and grim.

He finally figured out why his four Demon Generals were so averse to using the Teleportation Array.

As his power grew, the negative effects brought by Subspace affected him not just physiologically—

But also in terms of Extraordinary Power.

He still remembered when he just broke through to Gold Level, using the Teleportation Gate merely left his MP gauge empty, yet he still had the energy to cast spells.

But upon reaching Platinum Level, he felt his powers directly downgraded, reducing to the mid-tier of Gold Level.

Fortunately, this weakening was not permanent.

He could feel the influence exerted by Subspace slowly dissipating, estimating the debuff on him would completely vanish within a week or so.

"It seems the subspace technology in Hell is still not advanced enough."

He must find a way to open a larger Teleportation Gate!

Or—

Think of a way to bypass the penalties of Subspace.

Finally noticing Luo Yan's pallor, Sarah quickly moved to his side, looking at him with concern as she spoke.

"Lord Demon King, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, no need to worry about me."

Luo Yan nodded at Sarah, then looked at the acolyte waiting respectfully on the side, speaking in a commanding tone.

"During my absence, has anything new happened?"

The acolyte standing beside the Teleportation Array nodded slightly, speaking respectfully.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Imperial fleet has arrived at Withered Wood Port on the Northern Coast, and currently General Hammerdon is negotiating with Baron Ticky over the supply provision issues for Saint Yil Castle. Following your instructions, Baron Ticky has agreed to the trade agreement proposed by the other side, while General Hammerdon has decided to have the construction team from Saint Yil Castle build a deep-water port for Withered Wood Port..."

"Meanwhile, the High-level Demon from Demon City has arrived at the Maze you prepared for him and has placed the core of the Demon King Territory at the location you specified."

"As you anticipated, he was puzzled by the placement of your statue in the Maze, but we quickly informed him that it was a trick to confuse human adventurers, preventing them from discovering the true core of the Maze."

"Mr. Egger proved surprisingly easy to deceive, completely trusting the explanation you instructed us to give beforehand."

"Furthermore, like General Hammerdon, he hopes to meet with you to discuss... future arrangements for the Demon King Territory."

The cloaked acolyte conveyed to Luo Yan everything that had transpired during this period, including General Hammerdon and the garrison at Saint Yil Castle's recent activities in Withered Wood Port, as well as the recent actions of Gana Continent's Demon King Egger in the Sun Step Mountain Range.
