Chapter 2

Gu world, Southern border on a small mountain by the name Qing Mao Mountain, in a small clan named Gu Yue Clan two, four-year-old kids could be seen standing side by side in front of a couple but unlike one would expect normally both kids were quiet at the moment despite having suffered the loss of their parents.

The two kids fang Yuan and Fang Zheng were born as twins but what made both of

them special is that both housed a reincarnated soul, one came to be as a

result of some higher being interference while the other for some reason unknown.

Hailed as genius twins of the Gu Yue Clan both had shown traits that set them

apart from others their age.

Fang Yuan a genius boy who started talking when he was just three months old

while walking at four, a genius who can recite exceptional poetry even at his current young age and Fang Zheng the younger of the twins boasted great comprehension and an analytic mind capable of learning anything taught in a matter of days.

"Hello kids, I am your Uncle, your father's brother, you can call Uncle Dong Tu and this here is my wife, your aunt. It breaks my heart to think that my brother departed before me but don't worry you are not alone," said a man to the two brothers standing in front of him with a smile not really feeling sad at his brother's death.

"Your uncle is right, we are both with you and from now on you will live with us, consider this your own home, the rooms upstairs are yours, you both must be tired so you can rest for now I will introduce you to everyone in the house later" added the woman standing beside Dong Tu barely able to conceal her impatience.

Listening to the adults the two kids went to their rooms to rest. Opening the

door to his room Fang Zheng looked around there was a bed, a table, a chair, and a wardrobe. Not minding minimalistic style he lies down on the bed closing his eyes for some much-needed rest.

Although a reincarnator but after being taken care of by the couple for four years and because of their genuine love for him, even with his introverted personality, he had grown attached to them, to him the couple were no different than his parents in his past life and losing someone you love is never easy no matter the age.

It's been five days since his parent's death and from the mourning ceremony to talks of their custody, everything had been hectic.

Now alone with his parents gone, he decided to once again reflect on everything he knew and adjust his plans, and as for his brother well there never had been a bond between them from the start.

After being reincarnated in this world he received his two gifts from Rob, the

oldest one's inheritance and the bonus basic information package about this world.

There are a lot of things that he understood from the basic information pack but there were a few major points of importance.

1. This world was a lot like the cultivation worlds that he used to read about

in various media of his previous world, the difference being that this world revolved around creatures with supernatural abilities, these creatures were known as Gu.

2. To use their abilities a Gu needs to interact and use the natural energy present in the world.

3. Humans or mortals of this world can open an aperture in themselves that can

interact, absorb and accumulate the natural energy of the world and use this

accumulated energy to rewrite the will or consciousness of the wild Gu with

their own gaining control over the Gu and its powers. These people are known as Gu masters.

4. There exists extreme physiques either natural or artificial that have an

extreme affinity to a particular set of dao marks or path giving them a major

advantage in that path.

5. The animals that form symbiotic relationships with the wild Gu are known as Beasts.

6. The fate of everyone living in this world is controlled and written by fate Gu as heaven's will

7. Only those connected to the outer path ie. connected to something not belonging to this world can resist the fate written for them by fate gu and these people are known as otherworldly demons.

Aside from the information he gained from the basic pack, his inheritance was also Godly, although not in form of instant benefit but its potential is nonetheless exceptional.

Matching with his guess the inheritance he got was related to the Oldest One from Lord Of Mysteries and rather than the Beyonder characteristics what it contained was information and methods.

After an overall study of inheritance, a lot of things became clear to him.

According to the inheritance, any world in the Chaotic Void / Outer verse or existence has an essence that represents the world.

It could be rules or laws that governed the world, Laws that represent its working, skills rooted in beings living in it, and in the Gu world what represents its essence are different dao marks, and Gu that inhabit this world are nothing more than a collection of these dao marks given life and will.

What inheritance gave him were basic dao marks that represented the twenty-two paths in the Lord Of Mysteries and refinement methods that allow him to upgrade them all the way up to the rank of Oldest One.

According to what he knows now, these outer paths dao marks have the properties of devouring, assimilating, adapting, and evolving.

What they do is devour the existing dao marks, assimilate the devoured marks

into themselves, adapt, and become part of the world maintaining its stability while maintaining its identity as an outsider and evolve to reach a higher rank.

When a mortal refine a Gu belonging to the outer path for the first time, the outer path dao marks represented by the Gu assimilate themselves into the mortal body and aperture mutating their physique to an artificial extreme physique that can support that outer path, and although a mortal would be able to use normal Gu they get forever bonded to their particular outer path.

It would have been the same for Fang Zheng had he chosen to reincarnate in an

already-born body but since decided to be born as a newborn, his soul was assimilated in a yet-to-grow fetus, and his soul containing all the outer path dao marks in the form of inheritance mutated his yet to form body into an extreme physique that supported all the twenty two-path with complete balance.

"Phewww" After recollecting himself, Fang Zheng opened his eyes and took a

deep breath, now it was time to move forward towards a chapter of his life

A/n : I wonder how it was...
