“Perhaps this ti, I might have a chance to enter the Ancestral Stele Space!” Ye Tian thought to himself.
However, he had to thoroughly comprehend the Void Sky Diagram and beco a personal disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky. Only then would he have the opportunity to acquire the ti-space type of Chaos Divine Ability. Once he mastered this divine ability and ford the embryonic form of the Great Dao of Ti and Space, his strength would inevitably surge, giving him a chance to break into the top hundred of the Divine General Rankings.
Of course, it was only a chance, as the difficulty was akin to ascending to the heavens. Collecting his thoughts, Ye Tian began to fully comprehend the Void Sky Diagram.
Four years later.
Ye Tian finally fully comprehended the Void Sky Diagram.
At the mont he comprehended the Void Sky Diagram, a phantom of the Void Sky Diagram appeared above his head.
In the Void Sky Realm, a realm created by Dao Ancestor Void Sky and the headquarters of the Void Sky lineage.
In the Void Sky Hall within the Void Sky Realm.
Dao Ancestor Void Sky was imparting teachings to so personal disciples when his gaze suddenly pierced through countless spaces, looking at Ye Tian in the Grand Universe.
Sensing sothing, he smiled slightly and said, “You all have a new junior brother now!”
“Congratulations, Master!”
“Congratulations, Master!”
“Congratulations, Master!”
The personal disciples congratulated in unison.
They knew that Dao Ancestor Void Sky was not referring to an ordinary disciple but a personal disciple. Ordinary disciples did not have the qualifications to beco their junior brother; only personal disciples did.
It was apparent that Dao Ancestor Void Sky, who had not accepted a personal disciple for countless ages, was about to take on another one.
A wisp of Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s consciousness traversed the boundless void, quickly reaching the outer edge of the Grand Universe and instantly entering its interior.
As long as this wisp of consciousness did not exert any power or affect any living beings within the Grand Universe, there would be no issues.
In the Grand Universe, in the Void Sky Hall.
Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu and several other Heavenly Monarchs were cultivating when they suddenly sensed an imnsely powerful presence, waking them up in shock.
“Greetings, Master!”
The Heavenly Monarchs looked at the supre void figure in the sky and bowed in unison.
It was evident that Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s wisp of consciousness intentionally let the other disciples know. Otherwise, he could have silently entered Ye Tian’s secluded chamber, and no one would have known.
However, accepting a personal disciple was a significant event for Dao Ancestor Void Sky, and each ti it was celebrated with a grand ceremony in the Void Sky Realm.
Since Ye Tian was now in the Grand Universe and a native being of the universe, if he had not transcended, the Dao Ancestor wouldn’t dare move him out of the universe, as it would endanger Ye Tian’s life.
Although a grand ceremony for accepting a personal disciple couldn’t be held, at the very least, an announcent was necessary, along with a formal apprenticeship ceremony within the Void Sky Hall.
“Summon all the disciples back!” commanded Dao Ancestor Void Sky.
“Yes!” responded Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu.
Soon, all the disciples of the Void Sky Hall erged from their secluded chambers and gathered. The disciples outside the palace rushed back, except for those in special secret realms who couldn’t return. Almost all the disciples were present.
Ye Tian naturally ca out as well. Seeing Dao Ancestor Void Sky, he understood the reason.
When all the disciples had gathered, Dao Ancestor Void Sky announced, “Today, I intend to accept another personal disciple!”
“What? A personal disciple?”
The disciples of the Void Sky Hall were all shocked.
Others might not have understood, but Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu knew well how high the standards were for his master’s acceptance of a personal disciple. In his view, no disciple had the fortune to beco a personal disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky. Heavenly Monarch Dark Light was strong and talented, and although his cultivation level was lower, his strength was nearly on par with Peng Yu’s. However, Heavenly Monarch Dark Light’s master was a disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky, which ant by hierarchy, Dao Ancestor Void Sky couldn’t accept Heavenly Monarch Dark Light as a personal disciple, as it would break the rules.
Thus, Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s new personal disciple had to be chosen from among the nominal disciples or official disciples, with the highest possibility being among the official disciples. There were not too many official disciples, but there were quite a few.
“Who could it be?”
Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu and the other official disciples speculated among themselves.
Suddenly, Peng Yu thought of Ye Tian but quickly shook his head. Ye Tian had not made any progress for tens of thousands of years. With such talent, how could he have the qualifications to beco a personal disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky? He even lagged behind so of the weaker juniors.
“Ye Tian, step forward!” Dao Ancestor Void Sky spoke again.
Ye Tian stepped forward, bowed, and said, “Master!”
“Ye Tian, today I accept you as my personal disciple. Because you are in the Grand Universe and cannot hold a grand ceremony, we will keep the apprenticeship simple here,” said Dao Ancestor Void Sky.
“Thank you, Master!”
Ye Tian couldn’t help but feel overjoyed. Although he speculated that Dao Ancestor Void Sky ca to accept him as a personal disciple because he had comprehended the Void Sky Diagram, it was just a guess. Confirming it now filled him with imnse excitent.
Following the apprenticeship rituals of the Void Sky lineage, Ye Tian perford the necessary rites. This included pledging to rules such as not betraying or dishonoring the master, though these rules were mostly symbolic and couldn’t truly bind a personal disciple. However, anyone who dared to break these rules would not be tolerated by Dao Ancestor Void Sky.
After the ceremony, the nurous disciples of the Void Sky Hall all addressed Ye Tian: “Greetings, Dao Child!”
“Dao Child” was the title given to Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s personal disciples. Even Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu had to call Ye Tian “Dao Child” and could no longer address him as “Junior Brother.” Only other personal disciples were qualified to call Ye Tian “Junior Brother.”
To celebrate Dao Ancestor Void Sky accepting a new personal disciple, the Dao Ancestor gave a lecture for a day. This was a rare opportunity for the other disciples.
After the day ended, Dao Ancestor Void Sky led Ye Tian into a side hall.
“How can this be? Ye Tian actually beca Master’s personal disciple?”
Many in the Void Sky Hall couldn’t accept it, especially Divine General Yutian. In terms of strength, he was a mid-stage seven-star Divine General, nearly stepping into the late stage, whereas Ye Tian was only a mid-stage six-star Divine General. Although Yutian was not a disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky, he still received attention and training from the Void Sky lineage. Jealousy! Indeed, Divine General Yutian was jealous! But he dared not oppose Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s decision.
Peng Yu and the other official disciples were also puzzled, not understanding why Ye Tian had beco a personal disciple. There were many ways to beco a personal disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky, and comprehending the Void Sky Diagram was just one. Hence, the official disciples did not imdiately think of the Void Sky Diagram because becoming a personal disciple through it was extrely rare. Most Dao Children achieved it through other ans. Therefore, no one thought of the Void Sky Diagram.
Soon, the news that the Void Sky Hall had a new Dao Child spread, causing a stir throughout the Grand Universe.
In the side hall, Ye Tian and Dao Ancestor Void Sky were alone.
Dao Ancestor Void Sky looked at Ye Tian and smiled, “Disciple, are you curious about the Void Sky Diagram, its purpose, and why comprehending it allows you to beco a personal disciple?”
“Yes, Master, I am very curious!” Ye Tian admitted.
