On the tower ship, inside the guest room.

The little hedgehog squatted on the bed, staring at the Water Soul Pearl whose radiance suddenly dimmed, its eyes widened in surprise.

It noticed that the pearl, as large as an adult's fist, was not only dimming in brilliance, but its size was also shrinking rapidly.

In just a moment, the large pearl shrank to the size of a longan.

Its glow was gentle and warm; though no longer dazzling, it revealed a hint of blue within the white, quite a sight to behold.

At first glance, it looked like a white pearl with a slight blue glow!

The most fascinating thing was, the little hedgehog pondered to itself, secretly thinking:

"This treasure, though smaller now and no longer shining like a Bright Pearl, is still inconvenient to carry around as a lone pearl.

It can't be placed in a Storage Pouch, and if hidden away, how can it absorb the essence of the sun and moon?

If only it could be set into a hairpin or woven into a headband, that would be perfect."

As it thought this, the golden silk cover loosely enveloping the Water Soul Pearl suddenly underwent a transformation.

The golden silk runes gradually gathered and intertwined, connecting on both sides of the Bright Pearl.

Then the golden silk stretched, crisscrossing, thread by thread weaving together, and in mere moments, it extended into hairbands about one foot long on either side of the pearl!

The golden hairbands at first glance seemed to be pure gold woven, hanging on either side of the pearl, yet appeared very ethereal.

The little hedgehog blinked, feeling utterly amazed. It couldn't help but think:

"The gold color is still too conspicuous, not very fitting for Brother Chen's style. If only it could change again."

Just as the thought arose, the color of the hairbands changed.

The golden glow faded, and the ethereal hairbands transformed into a deep blue-gray resembling water waves.

Lying on the bedside, with a pearl set in the middle, it wasn't eye-catching at first glance, but upon careful observation, it appeared mysteriously elegant, with an indescribable allure.

Wei Yuan's little heart was pounding, both joyful and surprised.

Though it couldn't comprehend the reasons behind all these changes, whether it had suddenly acquired some remarkable ability or accidentally discovered the true use of the "Talisman" book?

But joy ultimately surpassed curiosity. It lifted its head, exclaimed cheerfully, "Brother Chen, look…"

As it raised its eyes, it met Chen Xu's smiling gaze.

Chen Xu had unknowingly awakened from meditation; although silent, he had been watching the changes of the Water Soul Pearl.

Wei Yuan was even more delighted. It hurriedly said, "Brother Chen, you're awake, wonderful! Look at this hairband.

Take a look, has the Spirituality of the Water Soul Pearl been damaged?"

It feared it might have harmed the treasure by shrinking the Water Soul Pearl.

Chen Xu delicately picked up the nearby hairband, sensing the energy fluctuations of the treasure, and said:

"Divine objects conceal themselves. After such a transformation, the Water Soul Pearl's Spirituality not only remains unharmed but has gained an added concealed Attribute.

In the future, even as it continually absorbs the essence of the sun and moon, it won't draw others' attention, truly wonderful."

Then he took the page of the "Talisman" book Wei Yuan had flipped open.

But the page was blank; the strange patterns originally drawn on it had vanished into thin air.

Only a small line of text remained at the bottom right corner of the blank page: Endless Change Talisman.

This is a technique for transformation driven by the heart!

Chen Xu looked at Wei Yuan, who stared back at him in bewilderment.

After half a quarter-hour, they concluded through mutual analysis and discussion.

Wei Yuan said, "So, is it because my desire to learn the method of concealed transformation was too strong, causing the book to respond, activating the Endless Change Talisman?

This was because the teacher deliberately left a Spiritual Mechanism in the book for me.

When I opened the "Talisman" book, seeking earnestly, the Spiritual Mechanism responded. I, I…"

Wei Yuan could hardly have imagined that its book contained such a secret.

This explains what the teacher once said: "When you have questions, you should open the book to find answers."

This is the process of "seeking answers"!

Wei Yuan felt profoundly impacted, the long-ago sense of affection surged again.

It looked at the "Talisman" book in its hand, then at Chen Xu, and suddenly seemed to understand another saying the teacher once imparted:

"Ah Yuan, to truly become human, you must first understand human emotions.

No need to question what human emotions mean. Once you enter the world, one day you will understand.

I only hope that when that day comes, it won't end in sadness and despair but in boundless joy."

The teacher left long ago, yet he seemed omnipresent.

Wei Yuan suddenly stretched out its little hand, diligently drawing on the blank page of the "Talisman" book. It said happily, "Brother Chen, you should learn this talisman too.

You once said nothing in the world compares to one's own strength.

Even though I've learned this rune, I hope you learn it too.

You're more intelligent than I am. Though I haven't fully understood, you surely can learn it thoroughly.

Could you teach me later?"

Chen Xu agreed with a smile.

The so-called Endless Change Talisman not only allows control over the appearance of various Spiritual Objects—

If it merely controlled the size change or induced derivative changes of Spiritual Objects, then at most, it would only be a technique complementing Spirit Manipulation Technique.

In reality, true Endless Change embodies transformations of all things, naturally including the Cultivator itself!

For instance, if Wei Yuan can shrink the Water Soul Pearl, then it should also be able to transform its own size.

Furthermore, it should be capable of controlling its exterior to undergo derivative changes.

Such as growing horns or claws.

Going further, transforming into the height of ten zhang, even attaining effects akin to Fatian Xiangdi, might not be impossible.

This is the power of the Endless Change Talisman!

The mysterious book box behind the little hedgehog indeed housed a treasure trove, ripe for exploration yielding delightful surprises.

Regrettably, Wei Yuan's understanding of the talisman is shallow; merely controlling the transformation of a Water Soul Pearl was a staggering, fortunate endeavor.

To expect it to manipulate its own form in the short term is by no means possible.

Yet Chen Xu observed the rune lines, and although barely recalling their trajectory, drew the symbol causing his stature to become nearly ten feet tall.

Standing, his head bumped directly against the beam.

Truly, as Wei Yuan said, Chen Xu's comprehension was far superior.

With simple learning, surprise followed.

The ten-foot-tall Chen Xu took a few casual steps on the floor, then suddenly reverted to his original height.

It's not that he didn't want to continue; rather, as a beginner, his control over the runes was still unstable.

The two exchanged a glance, and Chen Xu smiled slightly, about to speak when suddenly there was a long horn blast on the deck.

"Pingyang Port ahead, the ship is about to dock!"
