Soon, A'Man learned about the many mysteries of the treasure called the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos.
This was not a physical book but rather a manifestation and vessel of a supreme Great Dao.
The Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos could carry all the mysteries and secrets of the world.
As long as she wrote down what she wanted to know on it, the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos would reveal the answers.
Such a function could only be described as unbelievable and unimaginable.
A'Man had never heard of any magical artifact or weapon that possessed such an incredible ability.
Even the Dao Realm elders of the Cosmic Annihilation Mansion had probably never seen a treasure like the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos.
However, activating the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos required consuming a substance called Destiny Energy.
To obtain Destiny Energy, she needed to continuously plunder or kill beings or cultivators who possessed great fortune.
Of course, she could also consume the Destiny Energy she already possessed.
To A'Man, this process was essentially about taking from those who had abundance to make up for what she lacked.
"This is a treasure of anomaly that I obtained by chance. It has the ability to uncover all the secrets of the world. I think it can help you."
Gu Changge's words, spoken with a faint smile, brought A'Man back from her state of shock.
"A treasure of anomaly?"
Her eyes still held traces of astonishment and disbelief. This was the first time she had heard such a name.
"Alright, you can explore the functions of the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos on your own. It's time for me to leave." Gu Changge smiled and did not explain further.
A'Man suddenly snapped back to reality.
Hearing that Gu Changge was about to leave again, she could no longer focus on the many mysteries of the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos.
"Senior, are you leaving again?" Her face was filled with reluctance, wishing she could spend more time with Gu Changge.
Gu Changge shook his head and chuckled, "What's this? Are you reluctant to part with me? It sounds like a life-and-death separation."
A'Man let out a soft "Mhm" and nodded heavily, not hiding her reluctance at all.
She still had so much she wanted to say to Gu Changge. She had thought that this reunion would last longer, but who could have expected that the separation would come so quickly and so suddenly?
"I want to spend more time with you, Senior, even if it's just a little longer." A'Man raised her eyes and looked at Gu Changge as she spoke.
After experiencing many things, she was no longer as timid as she had been in the past.
When she spoke these words, she looked directly into Gu Changge's eyes without hesitation.
Gu Changge seemed somewhat helpless in the face of her request.
He sighed softly and said, "It's not that I don't want to stay longer, but the distance between us is simply too great. In my current state, it's already difficult to maintain this presence."
It wasn't so much that it was difficult to maintain, but rather that it could easily trigger changes in the River of Fate of the Endless Yang True World, drawing the attention of other supreme beings in the Endless Yang True World and causing them to become wary.
After all, A'Man's identity was special, and changes in her fortune could lead to a series of subsequent butterfly effects.
Hearing this, A'Man couldn't hide her disappointment, and her eyes dimmed slightly.
"Then, Senior, will you come to see me again in the future?" she asked, her voice tinged with hope.
"When you break through to the Dao Realm, I'll come to see you again. By then, it won't be like today."
Gu Changge chuckled softly, drawing a big promise for her.
As his words fell, it seemed he could no longer maintain his presence. His figure grew faint and vanished in an instant.
"When I break through to the Dao Realm…"
Watching Gu Changge's figure disappear, A'Man no longer felt the regret and sadness she had felt earlier.
Instead, her eyes sparkled with determination, as if she had found a new goal.
In that moment, she had really wanted to call Gu Changge "Master."
But just as the words reached her lips, A'Man quietly swallowed them back.
She actually had a small, personal thought of her own.
If Gu Changge became her master, then she would be his disciple. In future meetings, wouldn't some words become inappropriate to say?
But if he remained just a "senior," then there wouldn't be so many formalities and restrictions.
"The day I truly meet Senior won't be far away. It's just that I still don't know his origins or full name, only that his surname is Gu…"
A'Man let out a soft sigh, her expression returning to its usual ancient indifference.
When she opened her eyes again, the familiar barbarian tribe before her disappeared.
She was still cultivating on Tianlan Star, and everything that had just happened felt like a dream.
However, A'Man knew it wasn't a dream because the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos still hung high in her Mud Pill Palace, like an eternal sun that never sets.
A'Man knew that Gu Changge was immensely powerful and unfathomable, but she didn't know exactly what level of cultivation he had reached.
Still, just the fact that he could casually appear in her memories and bestow her with the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos was already beyond incredible.
"Although Senior appeared in the Mountain and Sea True World back then, he definitely isn't a cultivator from there. A newly born true world like that couldn't possibly produce someone as unfathomable as Senior."
A'Man had also cultivated in the Endless Yang True World for a long time.
After recovering her memories, she naturally learned much about the Vast Expanse.
For example, the Mountain and Sea True World, where she had undergone her reincarnation trial, was merely a newly born true world. It didn't even have the qualifications to be attached to the Endless Yang True World.
Soon, her emotions calmed down, and A'Man began to focus her attention on the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos.
She attempted to investigate her own secrets.
The thick, ancient tome flipped its pages, emitting a sound like roaring mountains and surging seas.
A line of text began to appear within it:
[Name]: Zhao Xiuyan
[Cultivation]: Late-stage True Immortal Realm
[Fate and Talent]: Innate Demon Heart, Calamity Body
[Recent Trajectory]: In her haste to succeed, she will attempt to break through to the Immortal King Realm half a month later but will fail, leaving behind Dao injuries. She will be forced to search for healing treasures to cure her Dao injuries.
[Destiny Energy]: 1,000 points (Currently can be used ten times. Once depleted, the tome cannot be used.)
Looking at the text revealed by the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos, A'Man couldn't help but be stunned. Zhao Xiuyan was her real name.
She hadn't expected that she would attempt to break through to the Immortal King Realm half a month later, only to fail and suffer Dao injuries.
As for the so-called Destiny Energy, it started with 1,000 points, enough for her to use ten times.
Once it was depleted, it would mean the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos could no longer be used. She would have to plunder or kill other beings with great fortune to obtain more Destiny Energy.
After understanding these functions, A'Man let out a soft sigh. This was indeed miraculous, offering near-prophetic abilities.
With the help of the Golden Tome of Primordial Chaos, if she still couldn't compete with the other quasi-Dao Children, she would have no face to see Gu Changge again.
"If attempting a breakthrough half a month later has a chance of failure, then I'll just seclude myself for a few more months. That way, I'll definitely succeed." A'Man murmured softly.
