The system notification rang out once again.

[Invest in the Divine Guard Pill to receive reward: Netherlord Pill!]

[Invest in the Heaven and Earth Spring Concealment Art to receive reward: Great Oblivion Technique!]

Su Zhou looked at the somewhat shy Su Changsheng standing before him.

It was as if a watery screen appeared before his eyes.

Information regarding Su Changsheng surfaced in quick succession.

[Name: Su Changsheng]

[Cultivation Stage: External Manifestation Realm Grand Completion]

[Destiny: Blue? Purple? Gold? Red?]

[Comprehension: Mortal]

[Innate Constitution: Mortal]

[Gift: Evergreen Body of the Ages]

[Forbidden Bloodline Technique: Soul Splitting and Spirit Severing!]

[Evergreen Body of the Ages: Possessors of this body have an extraordinarily long lifespan, but their personalities tend to veer toward extremes.]

[Soul Splitting and Spirit Severing: This technique allows the soul to be split. Each division causes unbearable torment.]

[Fortune: In a dream, inherited the legacy of an Ancient Great Emperor. Endured countless agonies within the dream world, becoming extremely cautious and meticulous!]

[Quality Rank: Mortal < Commoner < Superior < Genius < Heaven’s Chosen < Peerless < Monster < World-Suppressing]

Looking at Su Changsheng’s stats panel, Su Zhou’s gaze became a little strange.

Su Changsheng’s aptitude was shockingly low.

One must know, the talents of all Su family members had already been upgraded by the system by one full tier.

With the added benefit of long-term consumption of spiritual herbs, most family members had reached the ‘Superior’ level.

And yet even after enhancement, Su Changsheng had only barely achieved the rank of ‘Mortal’.

If he hadn’t been enhanced, he probably wouldn’t have even been able to cultivate at all.

And yet with such poor innate talent, his destiny rating was bizarre—

Blue, purple, gold, red? All four tiers appearing side-by-side.

Thinking it through carefully, Su Zhou realized the reason.

Su Changsheng had awakened a forbidden bloodline technique: Soul Splitting and Spirit Severing.

This technique allowed him to split his divine soul, and the fragments could train independently—with their progress accumulating on his own cultivation.

However, the process of splitting the soul was unimaginably painful, like tearing flesh apart and watching it be tossed into a furnace—torment beyond description.

Normally, even a single attempt would leave one traumatized for life, never daring a second.

Yet this little bastard Su Changsheng had split his soul hundreds of times during this period.

Every time he cultivated, it was equivalent to hundreds of people cultivating in unison.

One day of training equaled hundreds of days for others.

Add to that the rich spiritual qi and herbs of Lingxiao Blessed Land—

Even a pig would become intelligent under such conditions.

Perhaps it was precisely this extreme fragmentation of his soul that made his aptitude so strange.

A man who inherited a legacy from an ancient emperor…

A man who’s honed caution to the extreme, and who’s ruthless even to himself—

Just how far could he rise in the future?

Even Su Zhou found himself looking forward to it.

If Su Zhou hadn’t swept his divine sense through the entire blessed land, he almost would’ve been fooled.

Just how cautious was this guy?

Let’s put it this way—

His humble wooden hut had at least several hundred formations, more than a hundred of which were designed just to conceal his presence.

Inside, there were thousands of talismans scattered everywhere.

“You have your own path to walk, your own Dao to pursue. That’s good.”

Su Zhou looked at Su Changsheng and said softly.

He patted Su Changsheng on the shoulder:

“Bear no ill will toward others, but never drop your guard. Yet even so, always leave some room in your heart.”

“Remember this well: You are the Su Family’s First Sequence, bearer of the title ‘First Immortal.’”

“No matter what happens, the family is your greatest backing. I, as family leader, will always shield you!”

“From now on, you may enter Lingxiao Peak at any time. I grant you—actually, never mind. Something flashy like the Fierce Wind Heavenly Horse isn’t your style.”

“This jade box is for you.”

Su Zhou handed him a jade box and placed it in Su Changsheng’s hand.

Su Changsheng stood frozen for a moment.

Within his sleeves were hidden thousands of talismans.

At his waist, over a hundred paper effigies.

Even strands of his hair concealed emergency survival methods.

He had always known the family leader was mysterious and unfathomable.

He’d run simulations countless times—

Guessed that the family leader might have received some hidden legacy.

Prepared for death on the spot.

Even anticipated being forced to hand over his own inheritance.

But he truly never expected that this mysterious family leader…

Would simply tell him to walk his own path—

And say that as long as he kept moving forward, the family would have his back.

In Su Changsheng’s heart, an alarm bell always rang.

In his dreams, he had inherited his legacy while enduring endless betrayals and suffering.

That alarm bell had constantly reminded him to never trust anyone.

But for some reason—

In front of Su Zhou…

The bell… stopped.

It was the first time in Su Changsheng’s nineteen years that he felt such ease.

For the first time, he accepted someone’s gift without defenses.

And the look in his eyes changed—

No longer the rehearsed fear from before, but genuine respect from the heart.

“Su Changsheng… thanks the Family Leader.”

“Changsheng dares not swear eternal loyalty to the family, but… So long as the Family Leader has not abandoned me— Changsheng will never leave.”

For someone who had engraved the word ‘survival’ into his very bones, to say something like this was already a monumental vow.

“Go cultivate… If anything comes up, come to me anytime…”

Su Zhou smiled, “Also— You’re always forming the Earth Escape Seal nonstop—
Isn’t that uncomfortable?”

“Uh…” Su Changsheng maintained his respectful demeanor, but the hand in his sleeve was still instinctively forming seals…

“Just… got used to it!! Got used to it!!”

Su Changsheng blushed furiously.

After a few more instructions from Su Zhou, he bowed and left.

As soon as he stepped out the door, he nervously looked around.

Then pulled a paper effigy from his sleeve.

Without even a visible movement, his figure instantly vanished.

“A main character like Changsheng really is… the ultimate survivalist.”

Su Zhou’s eyes shone with clarity—

To him, Su Changsheng’s tricks were all crystal clear.

He saw Su Changsheng use the paper effigy to trigger dozens of fake soul threads—

Then depart using a soul technique—

But none of those threads were real!

The real Su Changsheng had, in the very first moment, hidden himself within a puppet stashed beneath Lingxiao Peak.
