System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

However, at this very moment, an unexpected turn of events suddenly occurred.

The candlelight that had been flickering slightly on the ancestral altar suddenly began to brighten rapidly, its light seemingly illuminating the entire magnificent main hall of the sect.

Seeing this, Immortal Dragon Breath merely smiled faintly, but the dozen or so Nascent Soul Daoists below the stage all showed expressions of horror, subconsciously turning their heads to look outside the hall.

The second and third generation disciples also looked over, only to realize with surprise that it wasn't that the candlelight inside the hall had brightened, but rather that the sky outside had fallen into deep darkness at some point. It was noon, and the sun should have been shining brightly, but at this moment it seemed as if night had instantly fallen.

While everyone was still reeling from the shock and disbelief, a figure in black suddenly appeared in the darkness outside the hall. At first, the figure was blurry, but as it drew closer, its form became clearer.

Whoosh—the crowd vaguely saw a slight smile curl at the corner of the newcomer's lips.

With three steps, three illusory figures hovered one after the other at the entrance of the main hall and in the middle of the hall. By the time the disciples came to their senses, the middle-aged man in black robes with a cold face was already standing steadily on the steps above.

As the man in black robes appeared, the dark sky outside instantly returned to daylight. Only then did the Nascent Soul cultivators below the stage awaken from their daze, hurriedly rising to their feet and respectfully bowing to the man in black robes: "We greet Uncle-Master Qiandao."

"Meet the Master!"

The second and third generation disciples were also shocked. Clearly, for many elite second generation disciples, the Thousand Immortals were just a legendary figure, rarely seen.

The fact that a grand initiation ceremony for new disciples could attract the presence of two immortals from the sect speaks volumes about the sheer scale of the event.

Piaoxue, Yunyi, Jianxin, and the others had different feelings. Jianxin, in particular, had joined Xuanqing Palace because of the reputation of the Thousand Sword Immortal. Unfortunately, the timing was not right, and he was unable to become his disciple. He had to join someone else instead, which has always been his biggest regret.

"It's actually Master Qiandao?" Yun Yi bowed and looked at this legendary figure with a complex and unfathomable expression in his eyes.

“Grandmaster Qiandao has appeared, could it be…” Piaoxue first looked at Immortal Qiandao respectfully, and then turned her gaze to Chen Xuan in the center of the arena, as if she were deep in thought.

"Could it be?" Qinglian seemed to have guessed something instantly and looked at Chen Xuan with surprise.

"Impossible, it can't be." Haoyue's face was extremely pale at this moment. She looked at the Thousand Immortals with awe, and then looked at Chen Xuan with resentment, secretly praying that it would not be as she thought.

"Junior brother, you've finally arrived." Dragon Breath Immortal greeted Thousand Paths Immortal with a smile.

The Thousand Immortals smiled in response, and without beating around the bush, looked directly at Chen Xuan, who stood quietly below. His gaze was gentle, and a smile played on his lips as he softly asked, "Chen Xuan, would you be willing to become my disciple and my eldest disciple?"

This seemingly ordinary, even mild, statement instantly stirred up a storm in the main hall, causing countless disciples to gasp in shock.

Only now did everyone realize why they had never seen this ancestor accept a disciple. It turned out that this immortal ancestor had never accepted a disciple in the past 100,000 years, and Chen Xuan was going to become his first disciple.

In an instant, Chen Xuan received envious glances from a group of third-generation and second-generation disciples. Many of them even secretly wished that if time could be reversed, they would be the ones standing there at this moment.

However, faced with this tremendous opportunity, Chen Xuan hesitated, which was unusual for him.

His deep, unfathomable eyes stared at the middle-aged man in black robes on the stage, but he did not immediately agree. This scene greatly shocked the senior disciples, most of whom assumed that Chen Xuan was simply intimidated by the grand spectacle.

However, the Dragon Breath Immortal and the Thousand Paths Immortal, who were well aware of Chen Xuan's Dao Heart, had completely different ideas.
