Zhu Xian: Get ten times the talent, the sword opens the gate of heaven

Chapter 367 Zhou Yixian: Go get the Immortal Execution Sword and defeat the Beast God

Feeling Zhou Yixian's gaze, Zhang Xiaofan said:

"Senior, you don't mean to say I can do it, do you?"

“Of course.” Zhou Yixian became interested, looked Zhang Xiaofan up and down, and said:
"If you study the four volumes of the Heavenly Book and reach the peak of the Upper Clarity realm, you will be able to easily use the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and will not be afraid of the backlash from the Immortal Slaughtering Sword's malevolent energy."

"However, you have only studied three volumes of the Heavenly Book so far. But you have already reached the Taiqing Realm, and your magical power is extremely profound, and your soul power is even more powerful."

"Therefore, even if you have only studied three volumes of the Heavenly Book, you are not afraid of the malevolent aura of the Immortal Execution Sword."

At this point, Zhou Yixian stood on tiptoe, patted Zhang Xiaofan on the shoulder, and said:

"Young man, the task of saving the world is entrusted to you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said:
"I can't do it."

"Why?" Zhou Yixian asked, puzzled.

Zhang Xiaofan handed his hand to Zhou Yixian and said:
"Take a look."

Zhou Yixian placed his hand on Zhang Xiaofan's hand and squinted his eyes.

Suddenly, Zhou Yixian opened his eyes wide and said:
"I forgot, you were completely possessed by demons eleven years ago, and you have demon blood in your body, and your demonic energy is also contained within your body."

"If you only have three volumes of the Heavenly Book, and you use the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation in this situation, I'm afraid it will instantly arouse the demonic blood in your body, causing demonic energy to entangle you and turning you into a demon."

"At that time, I'm afraid no one in the world will be able to stop you. Then, you will become a demon through killing, and in just a few years, you will be able to become a demon immortal, bringing a greater calamity to the world than the Beast God."

"Back then, even the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation couldn't do anything to you."

"Sigh..." Zhou Yixian sighed, saying:
"It seems that only Dao Xuan Zhenren was able to defeat the Beast God by activating the Heavenly Secret Seal and using the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. It's just a pity that such a person as Dao Xuan Zhenren, who had the world in his heart, was killed."

Upon seeing this, Zhang Xiaofan said:

"I'll try to see if I can save him then."

“You?” Zhou Yixian shook his head and said:
"You have no idea how much malevolent energy the Zhuxian Sword possesses after the Heavenly Secret Seal is activated."

"Even I can't think of any way to restore the sanity of a demon who has been consumed by resentment and gone mad."

Zhang Xiaofan said, "I have three volumes of heavenly books, the Great Brahma Prajna, and the supreme divine artifact of the most yang and yang in the world, the Xuanhuo Mirror. Moreover, I have been completely possessed by demons once, so I have experience."

"Furthermore, I have already reached the Taiqing realm, so although the chances are not high, I can try to see if I can help Dao Xuan Zhenren dispel the malevolent energy and restore his sanity."

"Huh?" Zhou Yixian let out a soft exclamation, looking at Zhang Xiaofan with some surprise, and said:
"Eleven years ago, Dao Xuan Zhenren used the Zhuxian Sword Formation to strike you with his sword, intending to kill you."

"And now, you actually want to save him?"

"Hehe!" Zhang Xiaofan chuckled and said nonchalantly:
"In that situation, a genius who was once a rare talent in the righteous path had already fallen into demonic ways and was about to follow the demoness of the demonic sect to the demonic sect. If I were in that position, I would have killed him too."

“If he hadn’t been executed, he wouldn’t be the Dao Xuan Zhenren who cared for the world and was revered by all people.”

"Moreover, Dao Xuan Zhenren initially groomed me to be the next sect leader and even introduced me to a master. He treated me well and placed high hopes on me. However, my goal has never been to become the number one person in the righteous path, to be glorious for hundreds of years and then turn into a pile of yellow dust."

After listening, Zhou Yixian looked at Zhang Xiaofan with appreciation and said:
"Now I finally understand why Dao Xuan Zhenren made an exception and trained you, a disciple of Dazhu Peak, to be the next sect leader."

"It's not just that your cultivation is profound, but also that you possess a broad perspective, just like Dao Xuan Zhenren!"

Zhang Xiaofan smiled, stared at Zhou Yixian, and said:
“Senior, you came here probably because you were worried that something might happen and Dao Xuan Zhenren wouldn’t be able to successfully activate the Zhuxian Sword Formation.”

"At that time, I'm afraid you'll have to take action yourself."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yixian did not answer immediately.

He looked at Xiao Huan with doting eyes, his gaze filled with affection, and said:

"When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact!" Zhou Yixian's lips moved slightly as he said this, but no sound came out; it only echoed in Zhang Xiaofan's mind.
"If something unexpected happens and Dao Xuan Zhenren is killed by the Beast God before activating the Heavenly Secret Seal, then let this old bone of mine take his place..."

At this point, Zhou Yixian bowed to Zhang Xiaofan and said:
"If it really comes to that, please take care of Xiao Huan for me, take care of her for the rest of her life!"

Zhang Xiaofan quickly helped Zhou Yixian up and said:
"Don't worry, senior. Dao Xuan Zhenren will definitely defeat the Beast God."

"If anything happens, I really like Xiao Huan and I will definitely take care of her for the rest of my life."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yixian sincerely replied:
"Thank you very much!"

Zhang Xiaofan smiled, helped Zhou Yixian sit down by the campfire, and said, "No need to thank me, don't be so formal..."

Although in the original work, Dao Xuan Zhenren successfully activated the Heavenly Secret Seal and defeated the Beast God with the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, thus stopping the beast tide and preventing the Beast God from destroying the world.

However, now, because of my intervention, some things have changed.

For example, Biyao didn't die, the Great Wizard didn't die, Qinglong didn't die, and Wan Jianyi had already reached the half-step Taiqing realm and was about to break through to the Taiqing realm.

Therefore, due to the butterfly effect, it's possible that Dao Xuan Zhenren might not be able to successfully activate the Heavenly Secret Seal and unleash the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.

At this moment, the sun was setting on the horizon, and the sky outside the door was dark and gloomy.

However, the sounds of the surrounding people could still be heard in the distance.

After all, Luoyang is now overcrowded, and with the beast tide approaching, people are filled with fear.

"Huh...huh..."

Suddenly, gusts of cold wind swept in, and the temperature inside the entire mortuary dropped, making it feel eerily cold...

Xiao Huan was no longer blushing. Suddenly, she felt the surroundings getting cold. Even sitting by the fire, she felt a bit cold.

"Grandpa, Brother Xiaofan, why is it suddenly so cold?"

Zhang Xiaofan didn't answer, but gently patted Xiao Huan's shoulder.

The next moment, Xiao Huan felt a warm current flow into her shoulder, quickly circulating throughout her body, making her feel extremely warm.

Although she still felt cold around her, her body no longer felt cold.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaofan!"

Xiao Huan looked at Zhang Xiaofan and smiled sweetly.

Zhang Xiaofan rubbed Xiao Huan's head and looked outside the mortuary.

"Crench!"

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the tightly closed gates of the mortuary suddenly opened.

In the dim light of the night, a strange figure drifted in.

He was dressed in a black robe and wore a black veil over his face.

Mr. Ghost floated into the hall, his gaze sweeping around before settling on the man by the campfire. His face, hidden behind the black veil, froze for a moment, and a hoarse voice rang out:
"I didn't expect to see you here."

Zhang Xiaofan remained expressionless and said calmly:

"Yes, I didn't expect to meet you here either."

After exchanging greetings, Mr. Ghost looked at Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan, and his cold voice rang out:

"This is my territory, you two get out."
