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

As Wan Jianyi channeled his surging magical power into Tian Buyi's body, it healed his injuries.

Tian Buyi's deathly pale face slowly regained a little color.

An hour later, Wan Jianyi withdrew his large hand and stood up.

After an hour of healing by Wan Jianyi's internal energy, Tian Buyi felt better and was able to speak again. His serious injuries had temporarily stabilized.

Next, all you need to do is practice your internal energy to heal and rest quietly for about a month, and you will be completely healed.

Tian Buyi stood up, looked at Wan Jianyi, who appeared to be middle-aged, suddenly clasped his hands together, bowed deeply, and sincerely said:

"Senior Brother Wan, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you saving me, I would have definitely died at the hands of the Sect Leader."

"Hmm!" Wan Jianyi responded, then looked in the direction of the Ancestral Hall, his hands behind his back.

Tian Buyi looked Wan Jianyi up and down, and felt that the senior brother Wan in front of him was even more sharp and ruthless than he had been three hundred years ago.

Especially the sword energy he unleashed when he saved him just now; the boundless sword intent filled the entire large courtyard. This sword intent was incredibly powerful, far surpassing that of three hundred years ago.

Thinking of this, Tian Buyi smiled and said:
"It has been three hundred years since we last met. Senior Brother Wan's cultivation has become even more unfathomable. I'm afraid he will definitely reach the supreme realm within a hundred years... Taiqing."

Wan Jian nodded and said:

"Probably, but it's beyond my expectations that you could reach the half-step Taiqing realm with your talent."

Upon hearing this, Tian Buyi immediately replied truthfully:
"Actually, I could never have reached the Half-Step Taiqing realm, because no one told me how to reach it, I had no clue at all."

"This was twelve years ago, after the seventh brother came back from you, he told me some of his insights on breaking through to the half-step Taiqing realm."

"Seventh Brother? Zhang Xiaofan... Haha..." Wan Jianyi laughed when he mentioned Zhang Xiaofan, saying:
"So it was that kid. I suddenly had an epiphany after hearing Xiao Fan's words, and I was able to break through to the half-step Taiqing realm by putting myself in a life-or-death situation."

"After that, I taught him my insights on breaking through to the half-step Taiqing realm without reservation, and I didn't expect him to immediately teach them to you."

At this point, Wan Jianyi turned around, looked down at the short, stout Tian Buyi, and said:

"You're lucky to have picked up such a talented disciple for free."

Wan Jianyi was tall and slender, while Tian Buyi was short and stout.

When the two stood together, Wan Jianyi was a head taller than Tian Buyi.

Tian Buyi looked up to meet Wan Jianyi's gaze, feeling Wan Jianyi's sharp gaze, and a feeling of shame and embarrassment welled up within him.

He never understood why Su Ru resolutely chose Tian Buyi over Wan Jianyi back then, and why she treated him extremely well for three hundred years, being a good wife and mother and managing Dazhu Peak in an orderly manner.

Standing before Wan Jianyi once again, he recalled why Master Shuiyue had always opposed Su Ru marrying him.

After all, Senior Brother Wan was one of the two most outstanding talents in Qingyun back then. He was tall, handsome, had excellent interpersonal relationships, high prestige, was polite, and had a carefree personality.

Furthermore, he gifted Su Ru the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, the Ink Snow Immortal Sword.

You must understand that for a cultivator, besides their cultivation level, magical treasures are the most important thing.

The Nine Heavens Divine Weapons are the most precious magical treasures in this world, possessing boundless power, and there are only a handful of them.

As for Tian Buyi, he was short and stout, unremarkable in appearance, and of average skill level. He was also somewhat dull due to his low skill level.

His only advantage is that he's thick-skinned.

If she were in Shuiyue Zhenren's shoes, she would also oppose Su Ru marrying her and choose Wan Jianyi instead. Moreover, Shuiyue Zhenren had also liked Wan Jianyi back then. However, Shuiyue Zhenren was able to give up Wan Jianyi and let her junior sister Su Ru have her way.

It is evident that Master Shuiyue treated her junior sister extremely well.

After all, Master Shuiyue was more than ten years older than Su Ru, and when Su Ru first entered the sect, it was Master Shuiyue who took care of her.

The idea that the brain is the fastest in the world flashed through Tian Buyi's mind in the blink of an eye.

Tian Buyi met Wan Jianyi's gaze and smiled:

"Senior Brother Wan, isn't Seventh Brother also one of your prized disciples?"

"Haha...haha..." Wan Jianyi suddenly burst into laughter, saying:
“Indeed, he was the first disciple I took on, and I genuinely wanted to take him on. He also makes me proud.”

"Moreover, what I didn't expect was that the kid actually reached the supreme realm of Taiqing first, which was far beyond my expectations."

"Yes...it was beyond my expectations, quite a surprise," Tian Buyi said with a complicated expression.

When he first took Zhang Xiaofan in, he saw that Zhang Xiaofan was mediocre and only accepted him as a disciple because his parents had died.

At first, he thought that it was fine if his aptitude was a little lacking; as his master, he could protect him and he could live a simple and ordinary life on Dazhu Peak.

What he didn't expect was that the seventh brother, who looked mediocre on the outside, was actually exceptionally talented and showed amazing talent in cultivation.

Shaking his head, Tian Buyi asked with a grave expression:
"Senior Brother Wan, what's wrong with the Sect Leader? He seems to have fallen into demonic possession?"

"Sigh!" Wan Jianyi first let out a heavy sigh, then said:
"He's following in the footsteps of our master, Tianchengzi."

"The Zhuxian Sword is extremely malevolent. If a cultivator at the Shangqing Realm uses it, their mind will be corrupted by the malevolent energy, and they will turn into a ruthless demon who kills without blinking an eye."

"Although Dao Xuan has reached the Taiqing realm, he can still resist the Zhuxian Sword Formation by using the spiritual energy of the Tongtian Peak lineage. However, he was ambushed twice by Cangsong during the war between the righteous and the demonic, and was seriously injured. He used the Zhuxian Sword Formation twice to repel the enemy, which caused the evil energy to erode his body."

"For eleven years, due to the corrosive influence of the malevolent energy, the injuries from back then have not healed. However, with his cultivation at the Taiqing realm, he is able to suppress the malevolent energy within his body."

"However, a few days ago, the Beast God attacked the mountain. In order to kill the Beast God and protect the world, we had no choice but to activate the Heavenly Secret Seal and gather the spiritual energy of the seven meridians for thousands of years. At the same time, the power of the Immortal Execution Sword increased greatly, and the murderous aura of the Immortal Execution Sword also intensified."

"Although he was severely injured by the Beast God, he was also severely injured by the Beast God. Combined with the overwhelming malevolent energy, he was corrupted by the malevolent energy and transformed into a demon."

"That's why Dao Xuan attacked you directly just now."

Upon hearing this, Tian Buyi's expression turned extremely grave, his brows furrowed tightly. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"The righteous path has suffered a great loss of strength due to the Beast God incident, and the demonic sect is stirring again. If the demonic sect attacks the mountain now, I'm afraid..."

"Senior Brother Wan, is there any way to restore Senior Brother Sect Leader?"

Tian Buyi said expectantly, but he didn't hold out much hope.

If it were possible, Wan Jian would have found a solution long ago, instead of the sect leader being in this state now.

Wan Jianyi shook his head and said:

“Back then, our master Tianchengzi was corrupted by the malevolent energy of the Zhuxian Sword, and was eventually killed by me and Daoxuan together.”

"So, there's nothing I can do. But..."
