"Since his birth, we've had high hopes for this child, the Immortal. Especially those in higher positions, they've been paying close attention to him."
After saying this, the Third Patriarch turned his gaze to Yuan Zhexian, his eyes filled with love and expectation.
Immediately afterwards, the Third Ancestor said to Yuan Zhexian with deep feeling: "Zhexian, you have now achieved the throne, but this is only a brand new starting point."
"The road ahead will undoubtedly be filled with countless hardships and obstacles, and your journey is far from over..."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian felt a chill run down his spine, and immediately replied without hesitation, "Third Ancestor, rest assured, I understand the reasoning behind this."
"No matter what road awaits me, I will forge ahead until I reach the end of that road and the ultimate realm of the Great Way!"
Yuan Zhexian's bold words moved everyone present, and they all nodded in approval.
Meanwhile, the three of them, Di Shitian, who had been silently observing everyone, were experiencing turbulent emotions.
Previously, he had witnessed the Yuan Clan's Third, Fourth, and Fifth Ancestors easily kill the ancient ancestors of the Heavenly Dao Clan and severely injure four ancestors from the Ferocious Beast Emperor Clan.
Such immense power is beyond imagination and far beyond my own capabilities.
Thinking of this, Di Shitian couldn't help but feel a little restrained, and his originally straight spine bent slightly.
Then, the majestic and profound gazes of the three Yuan clan ancestors slowly turned to Di Shitian, Xuanxiao, and Haoyang, the three quasi-immortals who appeared rather restrained.
At this moment, the three ancestors of the Yuan clan smiled slightly and said in a gentle voice, "Fellow Daoists! Judging from your appearance, it seems that you have something to say."
Upon hearing this, Indra and the others exchanged glances, their eyes revealing a hint of hesitation and unease.
It should be noted that although Indra and the other two were primordial humans who had existed since the early days of creation, they were at a loss as to how to deal with these Yuan Clan figures who were perhaps much older than themselves.
If we respectfully address the other person as a senior, then we are all at the same level of near-immortal.
However, directly addressing him as a fellow Daoist would feel inappropriate, as the other party's experience far surpasses that of himself.
At that moment, the Ninth Patriarch, who had been observing people closely, immediately understood the situation.
He laughed heartily, breaking the slightly awkward atmosphere, and then said, "The three of you, there's no need to be so formal. Let's just call each other fellow Daoists."
As soon as the Ninth Ancestor finished speaking, the three of them, including Indra, felt a great weight lifted off their shoulders. Their hearts, which had been hanging in the air with nowhere to rest, finally settled back into place.
Immediately afterwards, Di Shitian took a deep breath, mustered his courage, stood up, respectfully cupped his hands to the crowd, and solemnly said, "Fellow Daoists, to be honest, I do have something to say."
Upon seeing this, the three patriarchs of the Yuan clan quickly replied, "Fellow Daoist, please speak freely."
Di Shitian paused briefly, then gritted his teeth, as if making a firm decision, and continued, "I...I want...I want to invite Yuan Di Zun to the Boundary Sea!"
After saying this, he nervously watched the reactions of the Yuan clan's elders, his heart filled with trepidation.
