Ding!
Gu Liu woke up suddenly to the sound of the system ringing clearly in his mind:
[Second mission activated.]
[Mission: Stay alive until the age of ten.]
[Mission grade: Deadly.]
(Deadly?!) Gu Liu repeated the word in his mind, shocked, his eyes widening in his infant body.
Gu Liu was a fully conscious human who had been transferred into the body of a newborn child, so he could only communicate with the system mentally.
(What does "Deadly" mean? What are the mission grades in this system?)
The system responded immediately:
[Mission Grades:]
1. Normal
2. Intermediate
3. Advanced
4. Epic
5. Legendary
6. Destructive
7. Terrifying
8. Deadly
Gu Liu's eyes widened even more as he muttered to himself:
(The first mission was Epic, and now it's Deadly? Are you trying to kill me?!)
Ding!
[Reward Tier Information Unlocked:]
1. Normal
2. Intermediate
3. Advanced
4. Epic
5. Legendary
6. Superior
7. Supernatural
8. Forbidden
9. Cosmic Genesis Reward
10. Heavenly Seed Reward
Gu Liu was stunned to realize that the first reward he had received was only of the Superior tier, yet it had already caused changes in the world itself!
(If the Superior reward did all that, what would a Supernatural or even a Forbidden reward do?!)
Then, with a trembling mind, he asked the system:
(What is the "Cosmic Genesis" reward and the "Heavenly Seed" reward?)
[Cosmic Genesis Reward: Completely reshapes the world around you and grants the ability to establish a new law of reality.]
[Heavenly Seed Reward: Grants a seed capable of sprouting a unique Heavenly Dao that has never existed in history.]
Gu Liu trembled at the magnitude of what he heard, then screamed internally:
(This… this defies logic! A single one of these rewards could raise a being to a realm beyond imagination!)
(What kind of system did I receive?!)
(What kind of world am I in?!)
Then he asked the system in panic:
(What are the cultivation stages in this world?)

Gu Liu remained silent for a long time, unable to comprehend the massive list of realms.
(Sixty stages?! This… this is absolute madness!)
Then he asked the system:
(Who is the eighteenth ancestor of my family?)
[Eighteenth Ancestor: Gu Qing Tian. He reached the "Chaos Realm."]
Gu Liu's pupils shrank sharply:
(Chaos Realm?! That's not just a high level… It's one of the top fifty stages in cosmic cultivation! Oh my god…)
Then he asked:
(How many ancestors does my family have?)
[Total Ancestors of the Immortal Gu Family: 109.]
He continued, feeling truly amazed:
(And this family… how old is it?)
[The Immortal Gu Family has existed for one hundred billion years, from ancient times before even the emergence of the Dao.]
(This… this is unbelievable…)
(And what about the family branches? How many are there?)
[The Immortal Gu Family currently consists of seventy branches. Each branch includes one or more ancestors.]
[You were born into the "Tian Branch," the main branch that has ruled the family five times in a row. It is the strongest branch of all, with the most ancestors.]
(Do I have ancestors from this branch?)
[Yes. The direct ancestors of the Tian Branch from whom you descend:
Second Ancestor: Gu Shen Tian
Fifth Ancestor: Gu Huang Tian
Seventh Ancestor: Gu Bai Tian
Eleventh Ancestor: Gu Ling Tian
Thirteenth Ancestor: Gu Yong Tian
Fifteenth Ancestor: Gu Hao Tian
Eighteenth Ancestor: Gu Qing Tian

Thirty-Sixth Ancestor: Gu Zhen Tian

One-Hundredth Ancestor: Gu Fan Tian
One-Hundred-Fifth Ancestor: Gu Shi Tian
One-Hundred-Seventh Ancestor: Gu Yi Tian
One-Hundred-Fifth Ancestor (again): Gu Rui Tian]
[Total Ancestors of the Tian Branch: 28.]
Gu Liu's eyes widened as a strange euphoria swept through his tiny heart:
(The Tian Branch… the strongest branch… and I'm part of it!)
(Thank the heavens I was born into this branch, and not a weak one!)
Then he laughed inwardly:
(Still… even if I were in the weakest branch, with this system… I'd still become the greatest of all!)
He gazed back toward the horizon, his eyes gleaming with determination:
(This is only the beginning…)
End of Chapter Six.
