Chapter 1

"Fine, even the system doesn’t want me to be low-key..." Jun Xiaoyao silently complained in his heart.

"Ding, the sign-in location has been refreshed, please sign in at the Taiyue Ancient Stele!"

"Taiyue Ancient Stele, where is that?" Jun Xiaoyao wondered.

However, this matter was not urgent. After all, he was just a baby now, and he had already signed in to obtain a fully developed ancient holy body, which could be considered a perfect start.

There was no need to rush to find the next sign-in location.

"This time, I got a fully developed ancient holy body from signing in. I wonder what good things I will get from the next sign-in?" Jun Xiaoyao was somewhat looking forward to it.

At this moment, Jun Zhantian suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Right, I haven’t even given my precious grandson a name yet. How about calling him Jun Changsheng, which means he will achieve immortality in the future?"

Jun Xiaoyao, who was being held in his arms, was speechless.

Although the name Jun Changsheng sounded acceptable, he still hoped to use his own name.

"Ah, that’s not appropriate. There are too many people named Changsheng, it’s too common!" some of the elders shook their heads.

Nowadays, even dogs were named Changsheng. How could such a common name be worthy of their Jun family’s Qilin child?

At this moment, a somewhat weak voice suddenly sounded, "Why not call him Xiaoyao? My husband once said that becoming a deity is easy, but being free and easy is hard. I only hope that my child will live a free and easy life in the future."

The beautiful woman lying on the bed, with a pale face, spoke. She was Jun Xiaoyao’s birth mother, Jiang Rou.

Faced with Jiang Rou’s suggestion, Jun Zhantian and the others could not ignore it.

After all, Jiang Rou’s identity was not simple; she was a divine maiden of the ancient Jiang family.

Although the Jiang family was not as well-known as the Jun family, it was still an ancient family and could not be considered weak.

"Alright, let’s call him Xiaoyao." Jun Zhantian nodded, but he seemed to suddenly think of something and sighed slightly.

Seeing this situation, Jun Xiaoyao’s eyelid twitched.

He realized that his father was not here.

It couldn’t be that kind of cliché where the father is a powerful deity, right?

"Zhantian, don’t worry. Jun Wu Hui is the White-robed Divine King; how could he fall so easily? Moreover, this child will grow up in the future and might be able to help his father." An old woman comforted him.

"You’re right, hahaha, I still have my precious grandson!" Jun Zhantian recovered his smile.

Jun Xiaoyao blinked his eyes and secretly remembered his father’s title.

White-robed Divine King Jun Wu Hui.

From this name, it seemed that his father had quite a high status...

"Once the news that Xiaoyao is a fully developed ancient holy body spreads, it will likely cause a stir in the Immortal Realm. After all, there are many forces that secretly want to harm our Jun family." An elder said with deep meaning.

"Do you mean to use means to conceal the holy body’s fluctuations on Xiaoyao?" Jun Zhantian asked.

The other elders also nodded slightly.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be broken by the wind.

Xiaoyao was now the treasure of the Jun family, and no mistakes could be made.

"When did the descendants of our Jun family learn to hide and conceal? Can’t we even protect a holy body?" At this moment, a cold snort suddenly echoed from the sky.

The entire Jun family was startled, and countless gazes were cast toward the sky above the Heavenly Emperor Palace.

"That fluctuation..."

"Such a powerful aura, it’s the old ancestor who has been sleeping in the ancestral hall, emerging from the coffin!"

"Hiss... Even the old ancestor has been startled?" Countless Jun family members gasped in shock from all directions.

That was an old ancestor of the Jun family, whom many Jun family members had never seen in their entire lives.

And Jun Xiaoyao, just being born, had actually startled the old ancestor, leaving many people in awe and envy.

Inside the Heavenly Emperor Palace, Jun Zhantian and the other elders, hearing this voice, were also startled and hurriedly walked out of the palace.

Above the Heavenly Emperor Palace, a huge spatial rift opened up.

A somewhat lean figure in gray clothing appeared.

It was an old man in a gray robe, with dust on his head and body, as if he had just crawled out of the ground.

But his emaciated body seemed to contain world-shaking power!

As if all the heavens and earth were under his feet!

"This is the 18th Ancestor, pay respects to the 18th Ancestor!"

Jun Zhantian and the others hurriedly bowed.

This gray-robed old man was a true old ancestor of the Jun family, buried in the ancestral hall for countless years.

He would only awaken when the Jun family faced a major upheaval or a life-and-death crisis.

Jun Zhantian and the others never expected that Jun Xiaoyao’s birth would attract the attention of the old ancestor.

The 18th Ancestor’s figure flashed, appearing in front of Jun Zhantian, and he took Jun Xiaoyao into his arms.

His deep gaze, like the sun and moon, looked at Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao blinked his eyes, not crying or fussing, but with a hint of curiosity.

"Is this the old ancestor of our Jun family? Such a powerful aura, even stronger than Grandfather’s." Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

The 18th Ancestor couldn’t help but laugh loudly, "Good... good, our Jun family has produced another true dragon. You fools actually wanted to conceal this child’s brilliance."

"18th Ancestor, I was afraid that someone might harm my grandson in the future..." Jun Zhantian said, hardening his resolve.

Although they were high-ranking elders, in front of the 18th Ancestor, they were still considered juniors.

"Hmph, I’ll see who dares. If those old fossils dare to harm Xiaoyao, I won’t mind starting an immortal war, turning the heavens and earth upside down, and making rivers of blood flow for millions of miles!"

The 18th Ancestor’s attitude was domineering.

Jun Zhantian and the others all swallowed their saliva.

An immortal war was a great battle initiated by immortal lineages such as the ancient families, supreme empires, and ancient royal clans.

One battle could turn the Immortal Realm upside down and cause the deaths of millions.

The Immortal Realm of the Ancient Heaven had not seen an immortal war for a long time.

"I declare that from now on, this child will be the divine son of our Jun family. All cultivation resources will be倾斜 towards him. Even if we have to force it, we must make him a fully developed holy body!" the 18th Ancestor ordered.

Jun Zhantian and the other elders nodded in agreement.

A naturally born ancient holy body, only a fool would not cultivate it.

"Moreover, grant this child the qualification of the Zeroth Sequence..." the 18th Ancestor continued.

"What?" The elders were shocked.

If it was just granting the divine son status, that would be fine, as it was merely a symbol of status.

But the sequence was different.

The Jun family’s sequence was a qualification to compete for the position of family head.

The Jun family’s young generation numbered in the tens of thousands.

But only ten people had the sequence status.

In other words, only these ten people had the qualification to compete for the position of family head.

Each of these ten people, if taken out, could astonish an era, being the ten most outstanding geniuses of the Jun family.

Above the ten sequences, there was a Zeroth Sequence.

Zero represented nothingness, but also infinite possibilities!

Its status was even higher than the First Sequence!

The previous Zeroth Sequence was none other than Jun Xiaoyao’s father, the White-robed Divine King Jun Wu Hui!

"18th Ancestor, this might not be appropriate, it could make the other sequences dissatisfied..." an old woman tentatively suggested.

Each sequence had gone through countless trials to earn this status.

Granting the Zeroth Sequence to Jun Xiaoyao at birth, how would the other sequences feel?

"If they are dissatisfied, let them compete in the future. Let them see if they can surpass this child." The 18th Ancestor waved his sleeve.

From his tone, it was clear that he had great confidence in Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao sighed silently.

His grandfather had high hopes for him, the old ancestor treated him differently, and there were his father’s secrets and the hidden dangers of the Jun family.

It seemed he really couldn’t be a slacker.

"Unmatched talent, unmatched background, and system assistance. With such a perfect start, if I can’t dominate an era, I must be too weak..." Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
