Chapter 1 - An Accomplished Sacred Body, and Reverence of the Ten Thousand Saints

-EDITED-

The Emperor State, one of the 3000 mystical states of the Huangtian Mystic Realm, was the home of the Jun family, a Clan of the Ancients. The Jun family was one of the most glorious cultivation forces in the Mystic Realm. Countless eons ago, there had even been a Supreme Emperor in their midst.

The entire Mystic Realm had been trembling in anticipation for quite a while; rumors circulated that a legendary figure, nurtured in the womb for ten years, was about to be born into the Jun family.

In the Heavenly Emperor Palace, located in the Godly Island of Xukong in the Jun family... All the elders of the family were breathing anxiously as they looked at the newborn. The baby never cried after birth; he simply looked around at his surroundings with confused eyes. However, what caught the elders' attention was how the baby was glittering with a golden light, as if he was an infant born from a true dragon.

With a gasp, one elder asked, "Is this… the Sacred Body of the Ancients?" Another elder lamented, "There's no mistaking it. This is definitely the Sacred Body of the Ancients. Why... why are the heavens doing this to us of the Jun family!?"

Nobody in the Jun family was delighted by a baby born with the Sacred Body of the Ancients; instead, they were all lamenting in disappointment.

The reason why this happened was simple. Such a body was deemed nearly invincible in ancient times, making it one of the top five amongst the 3000 physiques listed. As such, it was something that could contend with other powerful physiques like the Mystical Body of Eternity, the Godly Body of Chaos, and the Warlord Body of the Heavens, among others. An accomplished sacred body could even be deemed equal to a supreme emperor of ancient times.

However, the rules of the world have changed drastically in recent times, making the world itself ill-suited for nurturing a Sacred Body of the Ancients. Furthermore, there were even ten shackles put into place by the heavens to impede the progress of a sacred body.

The baby, who was known in his past life as Jun Xiaoyao, was confused. 'Huh. So I've transcended and gotten myself a white elephant of a body.'

Jun Xiaoyao had been an orphan in his past life who was adopted by a blind fortuneteller. The blind fortuneteller told him that, while he would remain poor and destitute in his current life, he would definitely be favored by the heavens in his next one, enabling him to become unbelievably successful in his next life. Back then, Jun Xiaoyao didn't believe any of it, before an accident quickly claimed his life. When he opened his eyes again, he became a baby.

'Seems like I'm born at the finishing line of this life then', Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself. He was able to tell from how the elders talked that the Jun family he was born in was a very glorious Clan of the Ancients.

'Still… why was I born into a family like this with a practically useless body? Am I going to start my life as a good-for-nothing again?' Jun Xiaoyao lamented to himself.

At that moment, he heard a mechanical voice inside his head.

"Ding, congratulations to host for acquiring the system check-in."

"Ding, check-in location refreshed. Birthplace, the Heavenly Emperor Palace."

"Ding, you have acquired Extreme Beginner's Luck in this check-in. A five-star rare reward would be given. Confirm check-in?"

Huh? Was this a system of some sort?

Jun Xiaoyao was hardly surprised.

'Confirm check-in,' Jun Xiaoyao thought.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for checking in successfully. Eight-star rare reward acquired: An Accomplished Sacred Body."

Boom!

After the system's announcement, Jun Xiaoyao felt a rumbling burst of energy erupting within his body as if it were a volcano.

Ten spectral golden shackles appeared on his body; they were the 10 shackles from the heavens mentioned before.

"What is going on?"

The elders were all alarmed and turned their attention to Jun Xiaoyao.

What happened next was a massive shock to all of the elders present.

Crack!

The first golden chain crumbled.

Boom!

Unbelievably powerful qi welled within his body.

The second golden chain then shattered with a crack as well.

The entire Heavenly Emperor Palace shook and shimmered with dazzling lights.

The third, fourth, and fifth chains followed suit.

Eventually, all ten shackles shattered.

Boom!

The heavens above shook as a storm seemed to be approaching, accompanied by the terrifying crackle of thunder.

Specters of at least ten thousand saints appeared in the sky in tight formations and paid their respects to the Jun family's island.

The unreal phenomenon shocked the entire Huangtian Mystic Realm.

"My goodness, what is happening? Why are there specters of saints in midair?"

"Look at where they are bowing to. It's the Jun family of the Emperor State!"

"It must be due to the birth of that Qilin-talented child after being in the womb for 10 years! What type of body does that kid have to trigger the Reverence of the Ten Thousand Saints?"

Great figures of many undying dynasties and ancient cultivation forces throughout the 3000 mystical states throughout the Huangtian Mystic Realm gasped in awe.

Such a phenomenon had never occurred in eons, not even during the birth of some of the ancient great emperors.

Many were curious about the kind of unreal body that newborn baby had to possess to trigger something like this. The elders that had gathered in the Heavenly Emperor Palace, who were all accustomed to witnessing such mystical occurrences, were now left agape with confusion.

An elder clad in a golden robe appeared, while his hair and beard had all turned silver, tearfully exclaimed, "Haha! This boy is my grandson! My grandson is destined to be a great emperor!"

The elder was Jun Zhantian, of an esteemed position within the Jun family. Despite that, he danced about as if he were a childish old man, cradling Jun Xiaoyao in his arms in joy.

The words that Jun Xiaoyao had just heard sounded familiar to him. He felt rather exasperated.

He felt as if he were some old general character in ancient opera plays, with flags sticking out of his back.

'Yeah, that's my grandpa, alright.'

Another elder praised in astonishment,

"This is marvelous! A Sacred Body of the Ancients with all shackles inherently broken! This has never happened before! You can look into the records for the past million years and you won't be able to find even one instance of something similar happening!"

"With someone like this in our midst, we of the Jun family have a chance of having a great emperor in our generation!"

Yet another elder jeered, "Haha, that Lair of Zulong fools of the far ancient royal family looked down on us just because they had the imperial dragon blood Long Aotian amongst them, saying that we of the Jun family had nobody capable among our younger generations! How preposterous indeed!"

While the Jun family was an illustrious clan within the Huangtian Mystic Realm, they had their fair share of enemies.

Far ancient royal families such as the Lair of Zulong and the Wanhuang Spirit Mountain opposed the Jun family. Additionally, places like Bane of Life and Withered Lands posed a phantom menace to the family.

However, the elders present believed that none of those clans would pose a problem for long now that Jun Xiaoyao was born into the family.

That was because the Jun family now had someone with an Accomplished Sacred Body of the Ancients that had broken all shackles on it.

Booooom…

Golden blood flowed within Jun Xiaoyao's veins.

His aura grew once all of the shackles were broken from his sacred body.

Muscle Forging!

Bone Tempering!

Blood Changing!

Wits Opening!

Spirit Gathering!

It all happened right before the astonished eyes of Jun Zhantian and the rest of the elders present.

Jun Xiaoyao broke through all five physical stages on the spot.

It was worth noting that even some geniuses needed at least five years before being able to finish breaking through all five physical body stages.

Furthermore, that rate of progress was made possible only with the immense use of sacred pills.

However, Jun Xiaoyao managed to broke through all five in mere moments after birth. If the news were to be spread, it would have caused many geniuses to doubt their talents.

"A Sacred Body of the Ancients that had broken through all its shackles... My goodness, just what kind of a f*cking genius is he going to be!" All of the elders, who had seen many strange and extraordinary events in their lifetimes, no longer cared to mind their words when discussing what was happening before them.

But even that was not the most astonishing thing they had seen so far.

There seemed to be specters of more than 10,000 saints hovering in midair around Jun Xiaoyao, worshipping and chanting at him.

"Are you telling me that the Reverence of Ten Thousand Saints is occurring right in front of me?"

Jun Zhantian and the other elders were so shocked that they felt they could no longer feel anything.

Generally speaking, both sacred and godly bodies would cause their own extraordinary phenomena.

"It is said that an Accomplished Sacred Body of the Ancients would trigger six types of phenomena. When all six are triggered, the phenomena will resonate with the Reincarnations of the Six Paths. That will enable the one to reign supreme over everyone," an elder intoned, his gaze intense.

Jun Zhantian couldn't stop grinning. He felt as if he were able to envision his grandson ascending the throne of the great emperor, where everyone would kneel before his descendant.

The elders were not the only ones astonished; even Jun Xiaoyao seemed rather impressed.

He was born with unparalleled talents and an extraordinary background. Furthermore, he also came with a check-in system. All of these factors made Jun Xiaoyao wonder how the geniuses of his generation could possibly compete with him now that he was there.

Just as he contemplated whether he should keep a low profile in the future, something else happened.

A prompt from the system sounded in his mind.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host. New check-in location refreshed."
