Hongmeng Heavenly Book

"What?!"

Yan Ruyu's pretty face turned deathly pale instantly, her eyes filled with horror and disbelief: "You...how did you know?!"

Gu Changsheng sneered: "I'm just on the verge of death, not really dead. I heard every single word you said by my bedside."

"What incurable disease... It was your Yan family who poisoned me and then fabricated the lie that there was medicine in the secret realm, thus stealing my secret realm key."

Yan Ruyu's pupils shrank suddenly; she was completely panicked.

She suddenly remembered the conversation she had with her father by Gu Changsheng's bedside that day; it turned out he had heard everything.

Gu Changsheng's gaze was icy. On the verge of death, he miraculously awakened his memories of his past life and managed to dissolve the deadly poison accumulated in his body by timely activating the Divine Demon Creation Technique, a cultivation method from his previous life.

Otherwise, he would already be a corpse by now.

The Yan family... is truly wonderful.

Gu Changsheng's eyes were very cold, filled with intense killing intent.

First, they tricked him into believing he had the Sword Bone technique. Then, because Yan Ruyu had awakened her acquired pure Yin body and they wanted to send her to the sect for training, they squeezed out the last bit of value from him.

It's important to understand that what he awakened wasn't just his memories.

It is also a Taoist heart and wisdom that transcends all living beings.

"Chang Sheng, I know I was wrong..." Yan Ruyu's delicate body trembled violently as she pleaded in a tearful voice, "Please forgive me this time, for the sake of our marriage..."

"Spare you?" Gu Changsheng sneered. "You expect me to spare you for everything the Yan family has done to me?"

Before he could finish speaking, he struck with lightning speed, grabbing Yan Ruyu by the throat: "From now on, you will be the vessel for me to enhance my strength."

"No!"

Yan Ruyu's eyes were filled with fear, and her voice rang out in shock and anger.

However, Gu Changsheng's expression was grim and expressionless as he activated the Divine Demon Creation Technique.

A powerful suction force surged forth, greedily devouring the cultivation power within Yan Ruyu's body.

"what!"

Yan Ruyu's face contorted in pain, feeling as if her dantian had been violently slashed by a sharp blade and suddenly shattered.

Endless cultivation power surged like a flood bursting its banks, rushing into Gu Changsheng's palm, flowing through her meridians, and finally converging into his dantian.

A glint of light flashed in Gu Changsheng's eyes.

Qi Gathering Realm, Level Two.

"What a pure Yin body... Even though it was crippled, the remaining power still helped me break through from the Body Tempering Realm to the second level of Qi Gathering in one fell swoop."

"very good."

A sinister, satisfied smile curved his lips, growing increasingly cold and menacing.

Martial arts realms: Body Tempering Realm, Qi Gathering Realm, Spirit Sea Realm, Myriad Manifestations Realm, Transcendence Realm, Life and Death Realm, Heaven-Merging Realm, Heaven-Human Realm... Each realm is divided into ten levels.

"How dare you... how dare you do this!" Yan Ruyu collapsed to the ground, her pretty face filled with despair.

His dantian was shattered, and he lost all his cultivation.

She stared intently at Gu Changsheng, the overwhelming hatred in her eyes almost tangible, and shrieked, "You bastard, you'll die a horrible death!"

She awakened her pure Yin body three months ago. Originally, she could have easily joined the Tianlan Sect through her sister's introduction, and her future should have been bright. Now, all her beautiful expectations have vanished with the shattering of her dantian.

Once the dantian is shattered, there is no way to restore it.

Her life was completely ruined.

It's all because of Gu Changsheng.

At this moment, her heart was filled with boundless hatred, wishing she could tear Gu Changsheng to pieces and drink his blood and flesh to vent her anger.

"Noisy."

Gu Changsheng turned his gaze and landed on the dog cage in the corner of the room.

He sneered, grabbed Yan Ruyu, and slammed her into the cage.

"Gu Changsheng! You're insane! Let me out!" Yan Ruyu roared.

"I should be grateful I didn't throw you into the latrine," Gu Changsheng said sarcastically.

Yan Ruyu completely broke down, her eyes filled with pleading.

Gu Changsheng showed no pity and turned to sit cross-legged on the bed.

Swish.

His spiritual consciousness sank into his dantian.

A floating golden book, its light flowing silently.

"What exactly is this thing...?"

This book played a crucial role in his recovery of his memory.

Gu Changsheng frowned, having absolutely no memory of the book in his mind.

"This book is called the Primordial Heavenly Book."

A clear, ethereal female voice suddenly rang out.

Gu Changsheng was startled: "Who?!"

The woman's voice was indifferent: "You don't need to know who I am. If I hadn't preserved your memories of your past life, you would already be a cold corpse."

Gu Changsheng's expression changed slightly; the source of the voice was actually from the book?

"What is the Primordial Heavenly Book?" He paused for a moment before asking.

"A... terrifying treasure." The woman paused slightly. "The book contains nine celestial maps, each a world unto itself, containing supreme divine powers. Possessing just one is enough to transcend the mortal realm and surpass all living beings."

"With all nine maps gathered, we will be invincible."

"Is it really that terrifying?" Gu Changsheng was shocked.

"Now we are opening the first diagram of the Primordial Heavenly Book for you: the Battle Diagram."

"Conquer the world, and your physical body will be immortal."

The next instant, the Primordial Heavenly Book slowly opened.

boom!

The first scroll presents a magnificent and awe-inspiring panorama of mountains and rivers.

"This is..." Gu Changsheng was stunned by the painting in front of him.

The woman said calmly, "This diagram contains the supreme physique, the Primordial Devouring Body."

"How does it compare to my Heaven-Slaying Overlord Body from my past life?"

Gu Changsheng couldn't help but ask.

"Heh." The woman chuckled contemptuously. "In the face of the Devouring Heaven Body, the Heaven-Slaying Overlord Body... is nothing but scum."

"Only by seizing the pure Yin essence of that body can you be qualified to control it."

"The Devouring Body is divided into nine levels. To make it grow stronger, one must continuously devour the physiques and bloodlines of others, or absorb energy through dual cultivation."

"Once the ninefold level is perfected, primordial energy will naturally arise within the body, and the physical body... will become immortal and indestructible."

In the picture, a beam of light suddenly pierced through Gu Changsheng's brow.

As the light burst forth, a powerful force awakened within him.

Flesh, bones, and internal organs, as if tempered, exude an astonishing aura.

Feeling the surging power within him, excitement welled up in Gu Changsheng's eyes.

In his previous life, he had seen many different constitutions, but none were as terrifying as this.

Although he lost the Heaven-Slaying Overlord Body, he gained the Primordial Devouring Body, which is even better than the former!

Although he is only at the second level of Qi Gathering, he is confident that with this physique, he can fight against someone at the peak of Qi Gathering.

"From now on, I won't let any of the top-tier physiques I encounter go." Gu Changsheng thought of what the woman had just said: devouring physiques could rapidly enhance the Primordial Devouring Body!

"You are now the master of the Primordial Heavenly Book," the woman said.

Gu Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly: "I don't believe in free lunches. What's your purpose?"

The woman didn't answer, but only asked, "Don't you want revenge against those five people anymore?"

Gu Changsheng remained silent.

He knew that the power of this book was indispensable if he wanted to fight his way back to the Upper Realm.

He will remain vigilant as long as the woman does not reveal her origins.

How do I unlock subsequent Sky Maps?

"When you are strong enough, the Heavenly Book will be opened." The woman's voice faded.

Gu Changsheng closed his eyes and concentrated.

Possessing the Primordial Heavenly Book and drawing upon his previous life's experience as an Emperor, his cultivation in this life will undoubtedly be even faster.

"Five bastards... When I return, I will make you pay for your crimes in blood."

A murderous intent surged within him.

"Ah!"

"Gu Changsheng! You will die a horrible death!" came Yan Ruyu's humiliated roar from inside the dog cage.

Gu Changsheng glanced sideways, a playful smile playing on his lips.

Yan Ruyu's face was filled with resentment, tears streaming down her face: "Gu Changsheng, you dare to step out of this room and see what happens? You shameless scoundrel!"

"Trying to provoke me?" Gu Changsheng's smile deepened.

Yan Ruyu's face turned pale.

They saw right through me.

If Gu Changsheng dares to go out, the Yan family's ambush will surely kill him on the spot.

"Heh." Gu Changsheng let out a cold chuckle. "Since you're so eager to see me die..."

"I'll show you with your own eyes."

"How could your Yan family's shrimp soldiers and crab generals possibly do anything to me!"

With that, he picked up the dog cage, pushed open the door, and went out.
