In the backyard of the Mysterious Bookstore, Ma Feifei and Cang Lan sat facing each other. After not seeing each other for several days, Cang Lan seemed to have become much more haggard. Although she still had her charming features, she lacked some of her energy and spirit, and no one knew why.

Of course, these are not things that Ma Feifei needs to focus on. Compared to that, Ma Feifei is more concerned about the decision that Cang Lan made this time.

"Have you made a decision?" Ma Feifei asked.

Cang Lan nodded and said, "It's decided."

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei did not show any surprise on her face. In fact, from the moment Cang Lan appeared in the Mysterious Bookstore, Ma Feifei knew that she was going to enter the Tribulation Book World to seek the opportunity to become an immortal.

Ma Feifei still had some doubts about Cang Lan's decision. After all, Cang Lan was still young and had not reached the limit of life like Saint Chu Feng Yiming. Judging from the lifespan that Cang Lan possessed at the Half-Immortal level, there was definitely no problem for her to live for another one or two thousand years.

In a thousand or two thousand years, perhaps other ways to enter the Immortal Realm can be found? Not to mention that now that Ma Feifei's Mysterious Bookstore exists, entering the Immortal Realm is only a matter of time, but that time is unlikely to take a thousand or two thousand years.

"Actually, you don't have to do this. Maybe it would be better to wait a little longer," Ma Feifei kindly suggested. After getting to know Cang Lan for a while, Ma Feifei had developed a good impression of him. They weren't exactly the same kind of people, but at least they could get along well and weren't enemies.

Perhaps because she had made a decision, Cang Lan relaxed considerably and replied with a smile, "Why wait? Isn't becoming an immortal what everyone Covet?"

"But you're still young. You can see more of the beauty of this world," Ma Feifei said earnestly.

"Pfft"

Cang Lan chuckled at Ma Feifei's words, but quickly suppressed a laugh. She looked up at the sky and said with a touch of melancholy, "This world is so boring. Instead of wasting time, wouldn't it be more interesting to fight against fate?"

In the eyes of the world, Cang Lan is an unconventional person. She dares to sever ties with her father, dares to break the taboo of bestiality, and dares to ignore the rules set by anyone. A person like her is destined not to be ordinary.

"So when do you plan to start?" Now that Cang Lan had brought it up, Ma Feifei had no reason to stop her any further.

"There's no time like the present, let's do it today," Cang Lan said casually, as if it were a very simple matter, which made Ma Feifei look at Cang Lan with newfound respect.

"Okay!" Ma Feifei nodded, and with a flash of light in his hand, the book <Cang Lan Tribulation>, which belonged exclusively to Cang Lan, appeared in his hand.

"Ding ding ding"

A flash of golden light appeared, Liuli appeared beside Ma Feifei.

"Father, is this lady going in?" Liuli asked happily.

"Where did you come from?" Ma Feifei was startled by Liuli and asked instead of answering. This girl always appeared and disappeared without a trace. Even at night, there was no need to arrange accommodation for her, but when she saw her the next day, she was full of energy. It was really strange.

"Hehe, this is my home. I can come back anytime I want," Liuli said with a smile, hugging Ma Feifei's neck from behind.

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei felt a surge of envy. He couldn't even be there when he was out and about and immediately wanted to return to the Bookstore, but this girl could.

However, with outsiders present, Ma Feifei couldn't discuss things too much with Liuli. He immediately opened the Tribulation Book in his hand, and a Ballpoint Pen appeared out of thin air in Ma Feifei's hand.

"No, no, no!" Liuli quickly grabbed Ma Feifei's hand that was holding the pen, shaking her head and saying, "Father, we need the Divine Brush, we need the Divine Brush."

"The Divine Brush?" Ma Feifei was taken aback, then realized what Liuli meant by the Divine Brush. With a flick of his wrist, the Ballpoint Pen disappeared, and with another flick, the calligraphy brush named 'Divine Brush', a reward from the system, appeared in his hand.

"This one?" Ma Feifei asked.

"Yes, yes, use this to write, it's better to use this." Liuli nodded in reply.

Ma Feifei nodded and turned to the first page of <Cang Lan Tribulation>. This page was completely blank, without a single word, very clean.

Ma Feifei looked up at Cang Lan Cang Lan, who nodded slightly in response.

Seeing this, Ma Feifei no longer hesitated and wrote his name on it.

"Buzz"

The moment the name was written, the entire book trembled slightly. A faint aura rose from the book <Cang Lan Tribulation> and slowly drifted towards Cang Lan. Cang Lan did not resist and allowed the aura to enter her body.

One person and one book, and that's how they were linked together.

"Bite!"

A system notification suddenly sounded in Ma Feifei's mind.

"Host has successfully initiated the Cang Lan Tribulation. The Tribulation Book World will open in thirty minutes. Please remind the tribulation seeker to prepare."

Thirty minutes.

This was the first time the system had used an audio prompt and given customers some preparation time to enter the world of the book. However, this also indirectly proved that the Tribulation Book World was different from the books in the Bookstore in the past.

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei's heart grew even heavier, because the more this was the case, the higher the danger level in the Tribulation Book World would be.

"You have thirty minutes to prepare. After thirty minutes, you will be teleported to the Tribulation Book World. Good luck." Ma Feifei sighed, stood up, and looked at Cang Lan.

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Cang Lan put away her indifferent smile and gave Ma Feifei a proper bow.

Ma Feifei nodded, then turned and walked into the Bookstore. He still had the "Investiture of the Gods" in his hands; he needed to put it on the shelf.

The sky over Dubian Town was gloomy today, lacking the usual heat. Dafeng occasionally swept through the 'town,' stirring up clouds of dust.

It was still a border town, with too much yellow sand and mud. Dafeng swept up dust and sand, adding a touch of desolation to this 'small town'.

"Boom!"

A muffled clap of thunder sounded from the sky, causing the dark clouds to tumble downwards, as if the entire sky were about to collapse.

"There seems to be something wrong with the sky," a cultivator said, stopping on the long street and looking up at the sky with a puzzled expression.

"It's just wind and rain, what's the problem?" A stranger, a cultivator, who passed by him, remarked dismissively. Such natural weather was indeed common.

"Perhaps." Upon hearing this, the cultivator shook his head, patted the spatial pouch at his waist, and continued walking forward.

"Boom!"

Another rumble of thunder suddenly erupted, so loud that everyone instinctively looked up.

"Buzz"

Suddenly, a faint, trembling voice resounded in everyone's hearts.

"Call out!"

A fiery red beam of light shot straight into the sky from the Mysterious Bookstore, and in the distance, one could vaguely see a soaring Fenghuang!
