4 His name is Chi Yao!
The previous host of this body was a man known as Chi Yao. A prodigy with a B Grade talent. Although he had not the large of influence as his other peers, his talent could have made him famous and powerful. But, he did not choose to do so.
Instead the foolish boy left the clan and decided to live in the wilderness. Thinking he is in right mind, thinking that this is the way to life.
"I shall choose to be free without embrace than be a dog fending off it's rival, mooching off the satisfactions of others praise."
That was the philosophy the foolish boy had chosen. To be carefree without competition, without worry, without fear. He is just strong enough, and is as happy as he could be.
Living in the forest is better without others. No schemes to be fallen. No competition to fall behind. No one to leech on him. He would rather be alone than be embraced by another's for his wallet. that was the philosophy he chose.
He cultivated freely as if it was a form of hobby. He lived without other's for 7 years, No one to help him. If he had cultivated seriously and with the clan's help he could have reached rank 4.
But that's he was not that responsible to take care of a clan anyways. His laziness was one of the main reasons he stayed in the forest. He does not want to be an elder and take care of groups of men. He did not want to be a patriarch to keep them all alive.
"What a stupid reason to live away from home. Than again, I am happy that he did. look at this fabulous aptitude that I have obtained. If another mortal were to be harvested my aptitude might be at 70% at most." Thought the Gu as he had finished inspecting the previous host's memories.
If the common Gu Master were to live his days out here, than his aptitude would be as low as 40% C Grade aptitude. The reason being is that weaker people tend to retire more.
Also geniuses are geniuses. They can just live within the Clan having a large amount of influenced and followers already. It was a good thing that the fool had decided to make the decision to live outside the clan's reach.
Remembering some more shit, and the memories before he died. There is some sort of inheritance hidden within this place. His father's inheritance to be exact.
"Hmmm... Okay let's check it out." He said as he smashes the wooden floors of the house with his pure physical strength. His blood had mixed in with the Master, and so will his base physical prowess.
The more power he obtains from the Primeval Qi the more impurities would be wiped out from his bloodline. Meaning that his physique grows with him untill rank 6 where it will be fully flushed out. The Injuries that had sustained became a plot device.
The wooden house that was already in shambles falls apart completely. It was the final push to cave in entire place. Now the basement is now completely covered in wood.
One would probably be freaked out and annoyed because of this. Breaking the entire house for no reason and needing to search the entire place for valuables.
But not him, he had Analysis Gu he managed to find all the valuables inside the basement. He is not a wise person, Being stuck in the another's blood for so long. He does not know what it is like of the outside world. He does not know what to say or do in the outside world. All he can rely on his was Analysis Gu for help.
The experience of many others cannot change his personality. It cannot make him as wise as time like them, even after absorbing a trillion years of wisdom absorbed, he would still be a foolish person even after all that memory,
His devour ability will cannot do that, absorbing wisdom. If he were to absorb the memories of another person's, an identity crisis might appear. If an Identity crisis did not appear, than the wisdom would change him. Wisdom is meant to be gathered by your own experience, not that of others.
If the Gu were to realize that, then he would stop himself at all cost to not eat another's brains. Effectively making it the most useless Gu every, the ability to kill itself.
Although our story takes place in an Imaginary Domain, they still had a thing called "Evolution" despite all the crazy stuff that should not work within a realistic world.
Thus, the Gu would only be getting a set of images, and a very compact memory that only have the details not all the useless stuff like, drinking, eating, etc. Also he would feel very uncomfortable, for no reason at all.
Throwing huge chucks of wood into the air he managed to clear some space. If a piece or two is blocking his way, than he would simply smash it into very small tiny pieces.
Scavenging for 2 and a half minutes he managed to find a mysterious box, and a wide collection of herbs from the forest. Also some Gu worms within a cage.
Using Analysis Gu it seems to be a box filled many hibernating Strength Path Gu Worms. A rank 3 Jade Skin Gu, rank 3 Beast Strength Gu, rank 3 Achilles Heels Gu and one rank 3 Slavery Gu.
Also many recipes and instructions on how to take care of these Gu Worms. A Bag of food too, enough to feed them all 3 feeding cycles.
It was a great find indeed, although it could not help him much, they could be sold for an extremely high price. He giggled a little bit. According to his new memories, the market for Gu is extremely high. Not to mention the rarity of these Gu worms.
The Problem is, the Box was designed to tick for 20 years. Once it stopped ticking release the treasures inside. It is currently on the 19th year. It seems that the elderly father must have set a timer once the boy turned 5 years old, once he had confirmed that the child is of good health.
"A year's worth of wait? Why waste time? when I shorten it to none!" He laughed as he lifts the Box towards his mouth. He bites down on his tongue, making it bleed. The Blood flows towards the box and spatters all over the mechanism.
According to Analysis Gu, all it does is tick for 21 years. He will just have to use his blood to flick it even faster... Also he can just rotate the clock frame to the limit.
After a single minutes of messing around with it. The box opens up with a burst of light. It disappeared into thin air. Leaving only the inheritance of Chi Mo. A bag full of food, and four rank 3 gu worms.
He picks up the awakened gu worms and immediately refined the 4 Gu Worms with his Immortal Aura, and primeval essence. Normally it would take a few hours to refine them, but he was an Immortal Gu. They could not resist under the aura of his.
Obtaining these Gu worms made him smile. The Estimated worth of these Gu Worms totaled to 20,000 something primeval stones.
That's about 3 to 6 years worth of salary for an elder within a clan. He did not want to work his ass off for money. Right now, he just wants to have fun, and ascend to the Immortal Realm.
Not waste time gathering cash. Working and robbing nonstop, He prefers to not waste time anymore. It's been a billion years and he wishes to enjoy this new chance he had obtained.
Staring at the sky he could not help but admire how beautiful it was. The Color blue that is rarely found in nature. The Mighty Sun that lives the world its shine. It's life and light.
It had been several billion years since the first time he had ever saw the sun. Life was cruel to him. The boredom he felt, stuck inside the endless channels of the beast's blood was immense!
Now's the Time he can enjoy life! To be free and spread his wings! Life has given him another chance and be shall be as free as he wishes. As Demonic as he wish. As kind as he wished.
He now has a new future, and will enjoy it to its its fullest extent.
