The Primordial World, Shangqing Peak. A handsome young man sat cross-legged inside a giant egg, meditating in silence. I should count as having transmigrated, right? I wonder where this is. Hm, I still have to be nurtured inside an egg? Is this for real?
"Ding. This is the Primordial World. What you call your previous life was merely a dream. Your mother was afraid you would be bored, so she let you experience a lifetime," a clear female voice rang out.
"Then who are you?" the young man asked quietly.
"I'm the strongest Old Six System in the system realm. I'm dedicated to cultivating my host into the ultimate sixth brother. What do you think? Do you want to bind with me? Here's a warm reminder: your identity in this life is quite impressive," the female voice replied softly.
"Obviously I'm binding with you," the young man said impatiently.
"Ding. System binding successful. Beginner's Gift Pack awarded. Partial identity memories activated. Three drops of Pangu's Essence Blood and one Chaos Bead." Within the system space, a certain mature woman giggled. With these treasures, you'll be able to make something of yourself, kid.
After his memories were activated, the young man remembered that his name was Xuanxiao. He was originally a living being of the Primordial Wilderness, born from Old Father Tongtian of Shangqing and a beautiful woman. Judging from his memories while he was in the womb, his potential was even greater than Tongtian's. After all, during the period when he had been brought into existence, this was how things had been. Strength determined one's standing, after all.
Hm, because his origin was especially powerful, he had to digest the origin his mother had given him after birth while remaining inside the egg. And so, his father had brought him back to Shangqing Peak on Kunlun Mountain to absorb the essence of Heaven and Earth, while his mother seemed to have gone traveling through Chaos.
"Ding. First quest issued: Break out of the shell. Reward: one Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir." The system issued the quest at just the right moment.
Xuanxiao curled his lips and said, "The beginner's gift pack was pretty good, but the reward for this first quest is way too lousy, isn't it? I'm Tongtian's son. Would I really have trouble getting a Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir?"
"Ding. That's the reward. Whether you come out or not is up to you. If you don't, stay in the egg for the rest of your life. ╭(╯^╰)╮" Within the system space, the mature woman wore an arrogant expression, as though she had already decided that Xuanxiao would come out of the egg.
After being needled like that, Xuanxiao fell silent. Forget it. I have to come out eventually anyway. I've already absorbed all the origin inside this egg. It's not like I can stay in here forever. Forget it, I'd better go out. With that thought, Xuanxiao obediently hatched from the egg.
"Ding. Congratulations, host, on completing the first quest: Coming into the world. Reward: Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir. This was produced by the system, so unlike the one from your Eldest Uncle, it has no side effects." The mature woman's gentle voice rang out, as if soothing her own child.
The moment Xuanxiao was born, the winds and clouds changed, and spiritual energy surged. Why? The moment this kid came out, he casually swallowed a drop of Pangu's Essence Blood. He suffered a little indigestion and hurriedly circulated his cultivation technique, gathering all the surrounding spiritual energy to repair his body, which had been stretched to the point of splitting. It split, was repaired, split again, and was repaired again... After repeating this dozens of times, he finally succeeded in refining Pangu's Essence Blood into his own body.
Inside the thatched cottage, Tongtian sensed this aura and laughed loudly. "Hahaha, Eldest Brother, my son has been born!"
Laozi stroked his beard and said, "Third Brother, tell me honestly. Who exactly is your wife? The commotion caused by this child's birth is no less than that of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. With only you, it would be difficult to give him such an extraordinary foundation."
Yuanshi nodded and said gossipingly, "That's right, Third Brother. Tell us—during the time you went traveling, which mighty expert took you down and gave you this child?"
Tongtian scratched his head and said, "My two elder brothers, stop asking. She placed a restriction in my mind and said I can only reveal her name after I reach the fifth heaven of Sainthood. Otherwise, I'll suffer a Dao injury."
Laozi nodded and said, "Then forget it. We won't ask. Once the child's aura has stabilized, go bring him to the thatched cottage to meet his elders."
