Afther I Take The Position As The Patriarch, All Of My Family Members Become The Fated Protagonists - Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Ten Years of Deadly Passage, the Strongest Family System Activates!

Tianwu City.

The Su Family’s ancestral residence.

A man dressed in a dark robe with long hair like snow currently sat with his eyes tightly shut.

His handsome face was deathly pale, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his entire aura was incomparably weak.

“Another failure!” Su Zhou opened his eyes, a hint of bitterness flashing within them.

He was the patriarch of the Su Family, one of the four great families of Tianwu City.

His cultivation had already reached the peak of the Nine Apertures Realm, and he was the number one expert in Tianwu City.

To break through, he had chosen to return to the ancestral residence to enter secluded cultivation. Just as he was about to succeed, the vital energy within him surged—and collapsed.

It was as if the heavens forbade it, as though some mysterious force was obstructing his cultivation and ascension.

Following that, his bloodline crumbled, and all his vitality began to dissipate!

“To have the chance to live another life, yet still not witness the magnificence of this world…”

Su Zhou had a secret: from birth, he had carried memories of a past life—he was a transmigrator.

This world he lived in was an extraordinary great world.

There were supreme experts who could move mountains and fill seas, ancient beings who fished the sun and moon, and sovereign figures who ruled over entire realms and controlled fate and annihilation.

But the dazzling heights of such power—he had yet to witness them with his own eyes.

He didn’t even know the current state of the Su Family.

As the poison within him grew stronger, the breath within his body became like a candle flickering in the wind.

“Others transmigrate, and so did I. Heh… it’s been so many years, yet my cheat ability still hasn’t arrived…”

“And now… I’m even about to die.”

At that very moment—

An ethereal voice suddenly rang in Su Zhou’s ears.

[Detected host is in life-threatening danger. Activating the Strongest Family System.]

[Ding!! System successfully bound. Would you like to open the beginner’s gift pack?]

The voice was supremely ethereal, yet to Su Zhou, it was more enticing than the most beautiful music in the world.

Because he knew—his long-overdue cheat as a transmigrator had finally arrived!!

“Open it!!” Su Zhou didn’t hesitate in the slightest.

He immediately chose to open the beginner’s gift pack.

[Ding! Gift pack opened successfully. Acquired: Boundless Dao Physique!]

[Ding!! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an additional reward: Golden Luck Dragon!!]

[Golden Luck Dragon: Immeasurable fortune and endless blessings. Once bound to the family, it will greatly enhance the family’s fate. (Usable when family’s luck reaches 500)]

[Boundless Dao Physique: Innately boundless, unrestricted by heaven or earth. Immune to all laws. Possesses a physical body nearing the level of Dao. Can devour and fuse all holy bodies and Dao Physique powers.]

[Ding! Host meets requirements. Would you like to fuse with the Innate Boundless Dao Physique?]

Seeing everything unfolding before his eyes, Su Zhou was momentarily stunned, then revealed a trace of joy on his face.

“Fuse it!!” Su Zhou swiftly chose to fuse with the Dao Physique.

In the next instant, chants of the Great Dao echoed, and countless incomparably profound runes manifested across Su Zhou’s body.

Brilliant golden light burst forth from within him, and under that golden light, his body began to wither like crumbling sand.

Strands of Dao laws descended around him, and phantoms of radiant stars began to orbit him.

With a crisp crack, Su Zhou’s body split apart like a clay statue.

And a tall, majestic figure, filled with the aura of a primordial beast, emerged in the room.

His skin resembled jade, and his already handsome face now carried an indescribable charm.

As the fusion with the Boundless Dao Physique completed, the once-depleted blood energy within him surged violently.

Su Zhou looked inward and saw that his blood faintly glimmered with traces of gold.

However, he didn’t overthink it and assumed it was a result of the Dao Physique transformation.

But as his blood energy was replenished, the bottleneck in his cultivation realm was effortlessly broken.

Boom!!

The nine apertures within his body radiated dazzling light, and streams of true qi surged forth, following the rush of blood directly toward his brow—

And then, the Ancestral Aperture, which he had never been able to open in his entire life—Opened!!

His blood energy and true qi fused into true essence, and with it, he could now shape objects outside the body.

Su Zhou raised his hand and made a grasping motion—and a golden spear manifested in his palm out of thin air.

As its tip touched the ground, the solid granite beneath him was pierced through like tofu.

“So this is the External Manifestation Realm…” Su Zhou felt the power coursing through his body, emotions surging in his heart.

In this world, the cultivation stages were:

Blood Tempering → Qi Transformation → Meridian Unblocking → Nine Apertures → External Manifestation → Heavenly Origin → Star Holding → Moon Grasping → Sun Veiling → Venerable → Creation → Divine Path → Immortal → Boundless → Ancient One → Great Emperor

Su Zhou’s current cultivation was precisely the External Manifestation Realm.

In this realm, the inner vision stirs the outer reality, allowing one to wield the power of true essence.

At this point, one had already surpassed mortal limits.

Not only did one’s lifespan extend by a hundred years, but true qi would condense into true essence, enabling one to walk on air and shape objects from qi.

Su Zhou then suppressed the emotions in his heart and began inspecting the functions of the Supreme family System.

A virtual panel appeared before his eyes.

[Host: Su Zhou]

[Cultivation: External Manifestation Stage – First Layer]

[Family Luck: 100 (Decline)] (Note: When luck reaches 500, a family resource gift pack will be unlocked.)

[Investment Return: The host can trigger investment return rewards by investing in family members. The reward varies based on the target’s potential.]

[Family Mission: The Su Family Must Not Be Insulted]

[Someone is attempting to shame the Su Family. As the patriarch, show the world that the Su Family must not be insulted!]

[Mission Reward: Gold-Tier family Member]

“Looks like something major happened to the family while I was in seclusion.” Su Zhou frowned deeply at the family mission.

Before he entered seclusion, the Su Family had been rising strongly, even showing signs of becoming the leader of the four great families. But now, their luck had declined and the family stood on the brink of collapse.

Even without thinking hard, it was clear that the other great families were behind it.

“It’s time… to leave seclusion!”

Su Zhou stood up, his aura unfathomable, and a cold glint flickered in his eyes.
