Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.021 (sec). Leaf size: 37

dsolve(diff(y(x),x$2)+diff(y(x),x)=diff(y(x),x)^3,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\begin{align*} y \left (x \right ) &= -\operatorname {arctanh}\left (\sqrt {-c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{2 x}+1}\right )+c_{2} \\ y \left (x \right ) &= \operatorname {arctanh}\left (\sqrt {-c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{2 x}+1}\right )+c_{2} \\ \end{align*}
