Soon, Barbara understood the many mysteries surrounding the treasure known as the Hongmeng Golden Book. It wasn’t a tangible book, but rather a manifestation and carrier of the Supreme Way itself. The Hongmeng Golden Book had the power to carry all the mysteries and secrets of the world.
As long as she wrote down whatever she wished to know, the Hongmeng Golden Book would reveal the answers. Such a function could only be described as unbelievable, even miraculous.
Barbara was unaware of any divine weapon that could possess such an astounding capability. Even the elders in Zhou Mie Mansion, who had seen countless treasures, had probably never encountered something like the Hongmeng Golden Book.
However, to activate its power, a substance called Destiny Energy was needed. Acquiring this Destiny Energy required her to continuously plunder and kill creatures or cultivators blessed with great luck, making the book’s power not only rare but also tied to the fate of others.
Of course, she could also consume her own Destiny Energy. In Barbara’s view, this process was simply a way to compensate for what was lacking while also making up for what was already sufficient.
“This is a strange treasure I obtained by chance. It has the ability to reveal all the secrets of the world, and I believe it can help you,” Gu Changge said with a slight smile, pulling Barbara back from her shock.
“The Treasure of Variables?” she echoed, still in disbelief. It was the first time she had heard such a name.
“Well, as for the function of the Hongmeng Golden Book, you’ll need to figure that out for yourself. I should be leaving now,” Gu Changge replied, smiling without offering further explanation.
Barbara suddenly snapped back to reality. Upon hearing that Gu Changge was about to leave again, she set aside her curiosity about the many mysteries of the Hongmeng Golden Book.
“Senior, are you leaving again?” she asked, filled with reluctance and a desire to spend more time with Gu Changge.
Gu Changge shook his head and smiled softly. “What? Are you reluctant to part with me? It’s not as if we’re saying goodbye for life and death.”
Barbara nodded emphatically, making no effort to hide her feelings. She had so much more to say, yet the words remained unspoken. She had hoped their reunion would last longer, but it had come to an abrupt end.
“I want to stay with you for just a little longer, even if it’s only for a moment,” Barbara said, lifting her gaze to meet Gu Changge’s. After everything she had been through, she was no longer the timid girl she once was.
Upon hearing her request, Gu Changge appeared a bit helpless.
He sighed slightly and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to stay longer; it’s just that the distance between us is too great, making it difficult to maintain my current state.”
It wasn’t that maintaining it was hard; the real issue was that it could easily trigger changes in fate within the Yanyang Realm, attracting the attention of others and raising their vigilance. After all, Barbara held a special status, and any shift in her luck could lead to a series of butterfly effects.
Hearing his words, Barbara couldn’t hide her disappointment, and her eyes dimmed slightly. “Senior, will you come to see me again in the future?” she asked, hope lingering in her voice.
“When you break through to the Dao Realm, I will come to you again. By then, there won’t be any need for situations like today,” Gu Changge replied with a chuckle, painting an enticing picture for her.
But as soon as his voice fell, it seemed that continuing was a challenge; his figure became faint and vanished in an instant.
“Wait for my cultivation to break through to the Dao Realm…” Barbara watched as Gu Changge disappeared, and the regret and loss she felt just moments ago faded away.
On the contrary, her eyes sparkled with renewed determination, as if she had discovered a new goal. In that fleeting moment, she had wanted to call Gu Changge “Master.” But when the words were about to escape her lips, Barbara held them back.
Deep down, she harbored a secret desire. If Gu Changge were to become her master, she would become his disciple, allowing her to express her feelings more freely when they met again in the future. If he remained just a senior, however, there would be fewer formalities and constraints between them.
“The day I truly meet Senior again is not far off. But I still don’t know his origins or his full name; all I know is that his surname is Gu…” Barbara sighed softly, her expression settling back into the ancient indifference of her past.
As she opened her eyes once more, the familiar scene of the barbarian tribe faded away, leaving her still in the depths of Tian Lanxing. Everything that had just transpired felt like a fleeting dream.
However, Barbara knew that it was not a dream, for the Hongmeng Golden Book still hung high in her Niwan Palace, like an eternal sun that never sets. She understood that Gu Changge’s divine powers were vast and unfathomable, but she had no idea what his true cultivation level was. The mere fact that he could appear in her memory so casually and bestow upon her the means of the Hongmeng Golden Book was already astonishing.
“Although my senior appeared in the real world of Mountains and Seas at the beginning, he was definitely not a cultivator from that realm. It’s impossible for a newborn real world to harbor such an unfathomable existence as him,” Barbara mused.
Having cultivated for a long time in the Yanyang Realm, and after recovering her memories, she had learned a great deal about the Boundless Realm. For instance, the Mountain and Sea Realm where she had undergone the reincarnation trial was just a newborn realm, not even qualified to be affiliated with the Yanyang Realm.
Soon, her mood settled back to calm, and Barbara began to focus on the Hongmeng Golden Book. She tried to explore the secrets within it, flipping through its thick, ancient pages, each sound resonating like the roar of a mountain or the crash of a tsunami.
A line of handwriting began to manifest within the pages of the Hongmeng Golden Book:
**[Name]:** Zhao Xiuyan
**[Cultivation]:** Late stage of True Wonderland
**[Fate Talent]:** Innate Devil Heart, Body of Doom
**[Recent Trajectory]:** Eager for success. After half a month, I failed in my attempt to break through to the Immortal King Realm, leaving me with Dao injuries. I now need to search for holy medicine to heal these injuries.
**[Energy of Destiny]:** 1,000 points (can be consumed ten times at present; after being reset to zero, it cannot be used)
Barbara stared at the words appearing on the Hongmeng Golden Book, momentarily stunned. Zhao Xiuyan was her real name, a fact that sent a wave of recognition through her. She hadn’t expected to see details about herself laid out so clearly, especially concerning her recent attempts at breaking through to the Immortal King Realm. The realization that she had failed and sustained Dao injuries left her feeling a mix of concern and determination.
The so-called Destiny Energy initially stood at one thousand points, sufficient for her to consume it ten times. Once it was depleted, it would mean that the Hongmeng Golden Book could no longer be utilized, and she would need to acquire Destiny Energy by plundering or defeating creatures of great fortune.
After grasping the functions of the Hongmeng Golden Book, Barbara breathed a sigh of relief. It truly was miraculous, with effects akin to those of a prophet. With the aid of the Hongmeng Golden Book, if she still couldn’t compete with the other quasi-Daoists, she would feel ashamed to face Gu Changge again.
“Breaking through after half a month carries a risk of failure. I should be able to enter seclusion for a few more months to increase my chances,” Barbara murmured softly to herself, determination flaring within her.
