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

Tu Magu listened to the great wizard's words and felt that they made some sense.

After all, the witch was as beautiful as a flower, surpassing even fairies, and her witchcraft was profound.

Zhang Xiaofan was tall and handsome, like a banished immortal, and possessed astonishing cultivation.

A lone man and a lone woman, such a perfect match, staying in the Holy Tower, who knows what might really happen.

Otherwise, why hasn't he come out after ten days?

Thinking of this, Tu Magu said:

"Great Wizard, we don't need to worry about the Witch Queen anymore. Although the Witch Queen is sacred, Zhang Xiaofan is like an immortal being."

"If something really happens between the two of them, the priestess will not lose out. Zhang Xiaofan is completely worthy of the priestess."

Upon hearing this, the high wizard's cloudy eyes slowly turned, and after a moment of contemplation, he said:

"That's right. I know better than anyone how lonely and single the priestess is."

"If something really happens between the witch and Zhang Xiaofan within these ten days, perhaps it won't be a bad thing for the witch."

"Yes!" Tu Magu nodded in agreement.

Inside the Holy Tower!
Linglong sat cross-legged, her beautiful eyes fixed on Zhang Xiaofan in front of her, her gaze filled with shock.
There, Zhang Xiaofan sat cross-legged, his hands forming a mudra, surrounded by azure, golden, and purple lightning, with mysterious golden runes rotating within.

That's not all, because she discovered that Zhang Xiaofan possessed a Daoist aura.

Over the past ten days, she has explained to Zhang Xiaofan the five-day path to immortality and witchcraft.

Unexpectedly, within just five days, Zhang Xiaofan had not only fully comprehended the longevity method she had described, but had also become even stronger.

This gave her a clearer understanding of Zhang Xiaofan's intelligence.

Then, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly closed his eyes, formed hand seals, and entered a state of enlightenment.

This sudden realization took five whole days for him to wake up.

Linglong knew that enlightenment was a rare and precious state in the cultivation world, and only those with extraordinary talent had a slight chance of entering into enlightenment.

Moreover, each moment of sudden enlightenment can last from a few minutes to several hours.

Five days have passed since Zhang Xiaofan had his sudden enlightenment, and he still hasn't woken up. Heaven knows how much he has actually comprehended.

As a result, he even comprehended the Daoist principles that emanated from his entire body.

Linglong looked at Zhang Xiaofan with envy. She knew that Zhang Xiaofan had benefited greatly from this sudden enlightenment and had definitely gained a lot.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Linglong murmured softly, because she saw Zhang Xiaofan's eyelids twitch slightly. It seemed that Zhang Xiaofan had finished his enlightenment and was about to wake up.

Zhang Xiaofan slowly finished his practice, opened his eyes, and a Daoist aura flashed in them.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Zhang Xiaofan looked at Linglong and said:
"Thank you for protecting me and helping me to attain enlightenment. Otherwise, if I had been disturbed, I certainly wouldn't have been able to achieve enlightenment for so long."

"It's nothing!" Linglong waved her hand dismissively and asked curiously:
"You actually had a five-day epiphany this time, which means you've gained a lot. After this epiphany, what are your chances of becoming an immortal?"

"Ninety-nine percent!" Zhang Xiaofan said truthfully.

"Hiss!" Linglong suddenly gasped, staring at Zhang Xiaofan in disbelief, and exclaimed in surprise:
"Ninety-nine percent, then you're definitely going to become an immortal."

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, looking worried, and said:
"With only a 99% chance of success, there's still a 0.1% chance of failure, which is very dangerous."

exquisite:"………"

Linglong glared at Zhang Xiaofan and said:

"You're 99% sure, and you're telling me it's dangerous?"

"Please, can you not be so sneaky? Oh, right..."

“I remember now. During the twelve years I followed you, you always kept a low profile and never revealed your true abilities to outsiders.”

"Ha..." Zhang Xiaofan chuckled, spreading his hands as he said:

"There's no other way; one wrong step can lead to eternal regret. Only by being cautious can we find peace of mind." Linglong suddenly glanced at the Holy Tower, thought for a moment, and said:

“Zhang Xiaofan, since you are now 99% certain of becoming an immortal, the formations in the Holy Tower where I take classes are exceptionally strong and will provide a slight assistance in your path to immortality.”

"How about we undergo the tribulation to become immortals right here in this sacred tower, so I can protect you?"

"No!" Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, his gaze piercing through the Holy Tower towards the Central Plains, and said:
"Judging by the time, the Ghost King will obtain the power of Asura and transform into the Asura Ghost King."

"Although I'm certain that the Asura Ghost King won't harm Biyao, what if he does?"

"Therefore, I must rush back to Fox Mountain in the Central Plains immediately to protect Biyao when the Ghost King obtains the power of Asura and becomes the Asura Ghost King."

"Only in this way can I ascend to immortality with peace of mind. Otherwise, even this slight anxiety might be detrimental to my ascension."

Linglong nodded and said:

"That's good. Passing the tribulation to become an immortal is no small matter and cannot be taken lightly."

"Go quickly, I wish you success, and that you will become the only true immortal in this world."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan said:

"Then I thank the witch for her auspicious words; I am certain I will become an immortal."

exquisite:"………"

Linglong glared at Zhang Xiaofan and spat:
"Always so unserious."

“Ha…” Zhang Xiaofan chuckled, then suddenly his eyes burned as he stared intently at Linglong, his gaze slowly moving down from her head, and said:
"So beautiful, I want to eat you up just looking at you."

Feeling Zhang Xiaofan's blatant, burning gaze, Linglong quickly crossed her arms and looked wary, saying:

"What do you want to do? Don't you know..."

Zhang Xiaofan nodded and said:
"You promised me that you would marry me if I became an immortal."

"So, taking a second look and having a wedding night together isn't too much to ask, is it?"

Linglong stared warily at Zhang Xiaofan and said:
"That's going too far! Why don't you go back to the Central Plains and protect Biyao?"

"There's no rush. For you, I can stay another hour... Hehehe... Hehehe..."

Zhang Xiaofan laughed as he spoke.

"Ugh...that's disgusting." Linglong quickly took a few steps back and said:

“I promised you that I would marry you as soon as you became an immortal, and I will not go back on my word.”

“But you haven’t become an immortal yet. Once you become an immortal, come back here, and I, Linglong, will certainly not refuse you and will serve you wholeheartedly.”

"Great!" Zhang Xiaofan praised.
"As expected of the shrine maiden Reirō, she is both a woman of her word and a woman of her word, and she is prepared to do it so well."

"Don't worry, after I return to the Central Plains to protect Biyao, I will become an immortal as soon as possible. By the way, after becoming an immortal, I must also protect the Qingyun Sect."

"At that time, I will come to Qilidong to find you and welcome you to serve me."

“Uh…” Linglong uttered an “uh” and said:
"Could you please stop saying such embarrassing things? I've never done this before, it's really awkward."

"Ha..." Zhang Xiaofan chuckled, looking at Linglong's embarrassed expression, and said:
"Linglong, I'll set off right away. You take a nice bath and wait for me."

Linglong touched her forehead and spat:

"Can you stop thinking about these things all the time? Can you be serious?"

"cannot!"

Zhang Xiaofan said something and then got up and walked out of the Holy Tower.

As soon as he stepped out of the Holy Tower, he saw the Grand Wizard and Tumagu staring at him meaningfully. (End of Chapter)
