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

"Tsk tsk, as expected of an immortal ancestor, giving away 10,000 merit points in one go?" Tianshui shook his head and sighed. "I remember when I first became an apprentice, the initial merit points I received were only enough to barely exchange for a mid-level immortal technique in the Daoist Scripture Hall. As for supernatural powers and secret arts, I had to rely on my own hard work later on."

"I only got three thousand points back then, not much better than you. Ten thousand merit points, I've been a disciple for sixty years, and I've only accumulated a little more than that."

"These 10,000 merit points are enough for Junior Brother Chen Xuan to go to the Daoist Treasury Hall to choose a top-tier Immortal-level Qi Refining Method, and then he can exchange it for a secret technique that suits his current realm."

"I envy you. My master isn't actually stingy; she has plenty of merit points. But she's very strict with us. She believes that once a master leads us into the path and we acquire certain inheritances, we must be down-to-earth. Only in this way can we walk more steadily on the path of immortality."

……

The disciples whispered among themselves, and Chen Xuan naturally heard them all. He immediately said to his master with utmost respect, "Thank you for your gift, Master."

"Thus, the initiation ceremony can be considered a complete success. You two may now proceed to the Daoist Treasury Hall to select a Qi Refining Method that suits you. After you have chosen your Daoist inheritance, come to my cave dwelling to pay your respects three days later." The Thousand Dao Immortal was usually cold and taciturn, but when facing his prized disciple, he unconsciously became more talkative.

"Disciples, please remember Master's teachings."

At this moment, Wang Kaixuan returned to Chen Xuan's side.

“My disciple, you have extraordinary talent. Do not waste the gift that Heaven has given you.”

Before leaving, the Thousand Immortals still reminded the newly initiated disciples, "You should know that my Xuanxiao Great World has as many as three thousand royal prefectures, and Qingtian City is only a mid-to-lower-level prefecture. In the real first-class prefectures, sects are everywhere, and countless peerless geniuses will emerge in every era. You must not be careless."

Chen Xuan could hear the concern in his master's words, and nodded with a smile in response: "Disciple always keeps in mind the principle that there are always people more capable than oneself, and heavens beyond heavens."

"Haha, that's good."

Before the words were even finished, Dragon Breath Immortal and Thousand Paths Immortal instantly teleported away from the sect leader's hall.

As soon as the two patriarchs left, many Nascent Soul Daoists stood up one after another, and before leaving, they all smiled and nodded to Chen Xuan.

Clearly, Chen Xuan, as a new disciple, was highly regarded by them. They all believed that this kid would definitely be able to stand on equal footing with them in the future, or even reach a higher level.

As the Yuan Shen Daoists departed, all the second and third generation disciples, regardless of gender, bowed to Chen Xuan to offer their congratulations.

Among them, the third-generation disciples, Tian Shuang, Fu Feng, and Tian Shui, looked at Chen Xuan with a hint of awe in their eyes, and even their greetings and congratulations seemed somewhat awkward. However, the second-generation disciples, such as Qing Lian, Feng Yue, and Xue Yi, remained as carefree and unrestrained as ever, unchanged from before.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother Chen Xuan! I really didn't expect this!" Feng Yue's figure was graceful, yet she possessed no seductive charm whatsoever; instead, she was uniquely beautiful. At this moment, she looked at Chen Xuan with a complex expression and said this.

"Junior Brother Chen Xuan, congratulations on becoming a disciple of Grandmaster Qian Dao. When you achieve great success in the future, don't forget your senior sister." In the eyes of the third-generation disciples, Qing Lian was always aloof and reserved. She was usually taciturn when facing them, let alone when she was smiling and speaking meaningfully like this.

Faced with the congratulations from his many fellow disciples, Chen Xuan smiled and responded to each one.

Even now that he has become a disciple of the Immortal Ancestor and has defeated a group of third-generation and second-generation disciples in the Hall of Proving the Dao, his friendly attitude towards his fellow disciples remains unchanged. This approachability is one of the reasons why those disciples who were defeated by him are still willing to be close to him.

If the male disciples felt this way, it was only natural that the female disciples who were amazed by Chen Xuan in the Hall of Enlightenment would also develop feelings for him.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother Beiming. I never thought that my dream would come true in you." Jianxin looked at Chen Xuan and shook his head with a wry smile. "If I hadn't successfully overcome the inner demon I had to overcome, I would definitely have been jealous of you when I saw you become a disciple of Ancestor Qiandao."

Chen Xuan smiled and looked at Senior Brother Jianxin, replying, "Senior Brother's sword formation technique is unfathomable. If I hadn't been fortunate enough to comprehend the pinnacle of swordsmanship, I would have been defeated long ago."

"Junior Brother Beiming, if your mountain peak residence doesn't have enough top-quality immortal wine and spiritual fruits, you can still exchange them with the other junior brothers and sisters. We're all going to Beiming Peak for a gathering tomorrow," Senior Sister Piaoxue said to her junior brother in a rare teasing and gentle tone. "Don't be unprepared and neglect everyone."

Upon hearing these teasing yet meaningful words, Qinglian and Fengyue felt a sudden tightness in their hearts and turned to look at Senior Sister Piaoxue. A strange sense of pressure and crisis suddenly overwhelmed them.

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister Piaoxue. I was prepared and am just waiting for all of you senior brothers and sisters to ascend Beiming Peak."

……

After the disciples greeted Chen Xuan and Wang Kaixuan, Chen Xuan and Wang Kaixuan flew away from the main hall together.

"Well, I'm probably the least noticeable disciple of the immortals in history," Wang Kaixuan muttered. "If I had entered the sect a year earlier or later than you, it definitely wouldn't be like this."

Chen Xuan raised his hand and punched Wang Kaixuan, feigning anger, "You still say that the focus of the whole audience is on me, but you can calmly keep a low profile." As he spoke, Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, "If I weren't carrying a mission, I wouldn't have revealed all my trump cards in the Hall of Proving the Dao."

From the moment the initiation ceremony began, whenever the senior disciples greeted him, this kid kept hiding behind Chen Xuan. Chen Xuan knew that the two of them were of similar temperament and neither liked being the center of attention. However, his own situation was special, and he needed to make a name for himself, spreading his reputation as far as possible, so that it would be easier to find the Dragon Xia clan members scattered throughout other parts of the Xuanxiao Great World.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to see through me, junior brother. Your insight is quite impressive." Wang Kaixuan scratched his head and chuckled after Chen Xuan saw through his thoughts. "I'm sure you can guess what I used to do without me having to say it."

Chen Xuan gave Wang Kaixuan a meaningful look and nodded, saying, "The Tomb Raider Immortal?"

"Hehe." Wang Kaixuan knew that Chen Xuan had something on his mind, so he scratched his head, grinned and nodded. "Those of us in this line of work are most afraid of attracting attention. Once you're targeted, someone will investigate your background, so you understand, junior brother."

Chen Xuan frowned and quickly interrupted, "No, don't drag me into this. I've never gone into a tomb to plunder an immortal's tomb. You can call me that when we've actually gone into a tomb together."

Wang Kaixuan, with a mischievous grin, turned back to look into the depths of the sect and joked, "Going down into a tomb together? That's easy. When it gets late, I'll take you to rob the tomb of our founding ancestor."
