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

Zhang Xiaofan watched the Black Water Serpent teach the Water Qilin a lesson but did not stop it.

After all, that night on Tongtian Peak, the Water Qilin was going to teach him a lesson.

Zhang Xiaofan landed in front of Tian Buyi, looked Lu Xueqi and the others over, and said:

"Master, I'm leaving this place to you."

Upon hearing this, Tian Buyi spread his hands and said:

"My senior brother, the sect leader, said that you are the sect leader of Qingyun Sect, so you should handle this."

Zhang Xiaofan glanced at the hundreds of thousands of corpses above Tongtian Peak and thought that dealing with them would be troublesome.

The next moment, the Blood Soul Sword flew out of his palm and instantly soared into the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the Blood Soul Sword emitted a burst of crimson light, unleashing a terrifying devouring force.

The next moment, blood gushed from hundreds of thousands of corpses, rushing towards the Blood Soul Sword high in the sky.

Zhang Xiaofan watched as the blood continuously flowed into the Blood Soul Sword, but he did not allow the Blood Soul Sword to devour or absorb it.

Instead, the Blood Soul Sword was stored away because of the mysterious True Immortal overseas.

Zhang Xiaofan's strongest sword strike was not the one that slays ghosts and gods, nor the Divine Sword Thunder Control Technique, nor even the Thunder Strike, but rather the Sword Opening Heaven Gate Sword he used eleven years ago.

Over the past eleven years, he has acquired five volumes of celestial books and has been perfecting the Sword Opening the Heavenly Gate, making it even stronger.

Eleven years ago, when he was still at the third level of Shangqing, he was able to unleash the Sword Opening Heaven Gate Sword with the blood of thousands of cultivators. This sword was comparable to Dao Xuan Zhenren's full-force attack using the spiritual energy of the Tongtian Peak lineage to activate the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

Now, eleven years later, having obtained the five volumes of the Heavenly Book, he has perfected and strengthened the Sword Opening Heavenly Gate Sword Technique.

Now, he has reached the True Immortal realm. If he were to use the blood of these hundreds of thousands of puppet soldiers to unleash the Heavenly Gate Sword Strike...

Even Zhang Xiaofan couldn't imagine how powerful that sword strike must have been.

After all, firstly, he was a true immortal whose magical power far surpassed that of others of the same level.

Secondly, his magic weapon, the Blood Soul Sword, is now a celestial sword.

Third, hundreds of thousands of tons of blood.

This sword strike changed the very fabric of the world, its power boundless, truly... a sword that opens the gates of heaven!

A dozen or so breaths later, the Blood Soul Sword devoured the blood of hundreds of thousands of puppet soldiers, and with a flash of sword light, flew into Zhang Xiaofan's body.

The hundreds of thousands of puppet troops were blasted into dust by a gust of wind and disappeared into the air.

Then, Zhang Xiaofan pointed to the back mountain and looked at Tian Buyi, saying:

“Master, Old Wan was just exhausted and might not be able to hold on much longer before he dies, so…”

Upon hearing this, Tian Buyi's expression immediately changed, and he said:

"Then hurry up and go. Senior Brother Wan is the priority. Leave everything here to me."

"Hmm!" Zhang Xiaofan nodded, glancing at the Black Water Serpent who was enthusiastically beating the Water Qilin.

He knew that the Blackwater Serpent was proud and vengeful, and although a thousand years had passed, it still remembered every scene from back then.

Before he was the master, the Blackwater Serpent feared the Immortal Execution Sword of the Azure Cloud Sect and dared not seek revenge against the Water Kirin.

With him leading the way, the Blackwater Serpent relentlessly beat up the Water Qilin, venting its anger from a thousand years ago.

However, Zhang Xiaofan also thought he deserved to be beaten.

If it were him, he would have been chased for thousands of miles by Master Qingye riding a water unicorn, his body covered in wounds, and he would have barely escaped to the Dead Sea to save his life.

Then he probably wouldn't just let the water qilin run rampant; he'd have to transform it into a human, and then...

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, his body swayed, and he flew towards the back mountain.

Tian Buyi watched Zhang Xiaofan disappear into the back mountain, then looked at the five hundred Qingyun disciples and said:

"Next, we'll deal with Tongtian Peak!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the five hundred disciples, led by their respective chief disciples, went to tidy up Tongtian Peak. Zhang Xiaofan flew several thousand meters and landed in front of the Illusion Moon Cave. He then bowed to Dao Xuan Zhenren and Wan Jianyi and said:
"Uncle-Master Daoxuan, Old Wan!"

In Zhang Xiaofan's view, even after becoming a true immortal, he still respected Wan Jianyi and Dao Xuan, the sect leaders who had dedicated their lives to the Qingyun Sect.

They will not ignore the two of them after they have become true immortals.

This has always been his principle in life.

A person worthy of respect deserves respect at all times.

But if something is not worthy of respect, it will never be respected.

Wan Jianyi looked at Zhang Xiaofan before him, a glint of light appearing in his aged eyes, and praised him:
"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"I never imagined that the seemingly unattainable goal you set back then would actually come true."

"A true immortal! Such a figure is beyond our reach, yet you have actually achieved it."

Zhang Xiaofan smiled upon seeing this.

Dao Xuan Zhenren stared at Zhang Xiaofan, sizing him up from head to toe, and said:
“I knew your talent was no less than that of Ancestor Qingye, but I never expected your talent to be this good.”

"I knew you would reach the Taiqing realm, or even the peak of Taiqing, within fifty years. But I never expected that you would become a true immortal in just seventeen years."

"To become the only true immortal in this world, and from then on, to overlook the entire continent, roam freely in the world, and live forever."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said:

"I am not the only true immortal in this world."

"What did you say?" Dao Xuan Zhenren's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he exclaimed in shock:
"You mean there are other true immortals in this world?"

Upon hearing this, Wan Jianyi's aged face twitched repeatedly as he said:

"Is that immortal friend or foe?"

Zhang Xiaofan did not answer immediately, but looked at Wan Jianyi:
"Let's talk about this later. I'll treat you first, or you'll die soon."

"Treatment?" Wan Jianyi shook his head and said with a wry smile:

"Just now, in order to fight the Asura Ghost King, I used a secret technique to drain all my life essence and lifespan. Now I am completely exhausted."

"Other injuries can be healed. But the source of life is damaged, and the body is now just an empty shell, which cannot be cured."

Upon hearing this, Dao Xuan Zhenren also looked at Wan Jianyi's aged appearance with reluctance.

He was older than Wan Jianyi, and in fact, he often took care of Wan Jianyi when he was a child.

However, Wan Jianyi became increasingly dazzling, even surpassing his senior brother in prestige among Zhong's disciples, almost overshadowing his own brilliance.

Since then, along with a few other things, the relationship between the arrogant him and Wan Jianyi has become somewhat delicate.

Looking at the aged Wan Jianyi, Dao Xuan Zhenren was the most reluctant to part with him, and said:
"Junior brother, Master is gone, and now you're leaving too. I'm so lonely!"

Upon hearing this, Wan Jianyi suddenly trembled, staring warily at Dao Xuan Zhenren, and said:

"Senior brother, I'm not that kind of person. Don't look for me if you're lonely."

"Furthermore, you haven't been intimate with a woman for centuries, so I have serious doubts about you..."

"You..." Dao Xuan Zhenren pointed at Wan Jianyi, raising his foot to kick him, but looking at the trembling Wan Jianyi, he ultimately lowered his foot, sighed deeply, and said:

"Sigh, you're still the same as when you were a child, lively and energetic."

Watching this scene between the two, Zhang Xiaofan thought to himself that they truly had a deep bond between their fellow disciples, and said:
"Old Wan, actually, I can cure you."
