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

Zhang Xiaofan, the Great Wizard, and Tu Magu entered the Holy Tower together.

The tower was enormous; it took several hundred meters to reach the innermost altar.

Zhang Xiaofan looked over and saw Linglong dressed in Southern Xinjiang clothes, sitting with her back to the three of them.

Upon seeing this, the high priest respectfully bowed and said:
"Witch Goddess, Master Zhang has arrived."

Upon hearing this, the witch Linglong wondered why the great wizard's voice sounded so young.

Linglong slowly turned around, and upon seeing the Great Wizard and Tu Magu clearly, her delicate body trembled, and a huge, evil aura shuddered as she asked:

"Great Wizard, weren't you supposed to be on your deathbed? Why have you become so young in just a few days?"

Upon hearing this, the Grand Wizard bowed to Zhang Xiaofan beside him and said:
"Witch Goddess, it was Master Zhang who helped me regain my youth."

"Just as I thought." Linglong looked at Zhang Xiaofan and said:

"It seems you have already become an immortal."

"Mm." Zhang Xiaofan nodded.

Linglong looked at the two great wizards and said, "You two go down first. I want to have a discussion with Zhang Xiaofan."

Upon hearing this, the Grand Wizard and Tu Magu bowed to the witch Linglong and Zhang Xiaofan, and said:
"Witch Goddess, Master Zhang, we'll take our leave now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Grand Wizard and Tu Magu walked out of the Holy Tower.

Linglong watched the two figures disappear outside the Holy Tower before gently patting the prayer mat beside her and saying:

"Zhang Xiaofan, come and sit down!"

“Okay!” Zhang Xiaofan moved and instantly sat down on the futon.

"Is this the power of an immortal?" Linglong turned around and looked at Zhang Xiaofan, who had suddenly sat down on the futon.

Just now, she didn't even see how Zhang Xiaofan got there.

Before she knew it, Zhang Xiaofan was sitting right next to her.

Linglong, as the last witch goddess of the ancient witch clan, was worshipped by millions. Her witchcraft was unparalleled throughout history, with no one before or since.

His aura was incredibly sacred.

However, the sacred and pure Linglong seemed somewhat ashamed in front of Zhang Xiaofan.

After all, she spent hundreds of years trying to achieve immortality, while Zhang Xiaofan became a true immortal in just five years, possessing an immortal body.

Thinking of this, Linglong looked Zhang Xiaofan up and down and said:

"Now that you have achieved true immortality, what brings you here?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan replied:

Do you remember the pseudo-immortal technique I mentioned to you?

"Of course I remember." A glint flashed in Linglong's eyes as she said:
"I know you've been researching the pseudo-immortal technique. Could it be that you've already succeeded in researching it?"

"Yes, it's already a success. I've even helped the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, Xiaobai, achieve a pseudo-immortal body and gain the strength of a half-immortal."

"Hiss!" Linglong gasped, her eyes flashing with a sharp light, and said:

“I also know the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox. I never expected her to have such good fortune, achieving the status of a pseudo-immortal.”

At this point, Linglong looked at Zhang Xiaofan with some anticipation, appearing hesitant to speak.

Her obsession with immortality was deeper than anyone else's, to the point that she even researched the Beast God, an immortal and indestructible being.

In a sense, she succeeded, but the object of her success was not herself, but the Beast God.

Moreover, in the end, for the sake of all living beings, she still had to hunt down her most perfect creation, the Beast God.

Finally, feeling sorry for the Beast God, Linglong granted his wish when he expressed his desire to become a real human.

The price she paid was that she lost her body, leaving only a remnant soul to eke out a living inside the Xuanhuo Mirror.

However, to her utter surprise, Zhang Xiaofan resurrected her, and even became an immortal. In just over a decade, he fulfilled the lifelong obsession that had plagued her for centuries.

She was already exceptionally talented, but at this moment, in front of Zhang Xiaofan, Linglong felt that she was far inferior.

She wanted to find Zhang Xiaofan to achieve the pseudo-immortal status, but she felt that it would be abrupt to make the request suddenly. What if Zhang Xiaofan didn't agree?

So, the mouth that had been open immediately closed again.

Seeing Linglong's hesitant expression, Zhang Xiaofan smiled and said:

"Linglong, I can help you achieve the body of a pseudo-immortal, and after achieving the body of a pseudo-immortal, you will have the strength of a half-immortal."

"However, my pseudo-immortal technique requires you to pay a price. But this is not because I intentionally want you to pay a price, but to help you achieve the pseudo-immortal body. It has to be this way."

Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaofan could help her achieve a pseudo-immortal body, Linglong's holy and serene face was filled with excitement as she exclaimed:

"Isn't it just paying a price?"

"I once lost my physical body and died in my pursuit of immortality, and I have not even achieved immortality."

"Now, I can achieve immortality by paying a price, and I'm willing to accept any price. Tell me quickly, what is the price? I can't wait to achieve the pseudo-immortal body and obtain that immortal body that will last forever in this world."

Zhang Xiaofan beckoned to Linglong, and Linglong immediately leaned down and put her ear close to Zhang Xiaofan's ear.

Then, Zhang Xiaofan revealed the price he paid for achieving the pseudo-immortal body.

The next moment, her delicate body trembled, and she immediately turned around, her holy and beautiful face instantly covered with a blush.

After a long while, Linglong's voice rang out, saying:

"Zhang Xiaofan, how could you need such conditions to achieve the body of a pseudo-immortal? Tell me... are you interested in me and doing this on purpose?"

Looking at Linglong's retreating figure, Zhang Xiaofan said without any pretense:
"I did indeed take a liking to your body, but the path to immortality requires dual cultivation. I'm not lying to you; it's the only way."

"Moreover, this is a pseudo-immortal technique that I have painstakingly researched. Have you ever heard of anyone else possessing a pseudo-immortal technique?"

Upon hearing this, Linglong felt that Zhang Xiaofan was right.

However, she found it difficult to say that she would agree to such a condition. Therefore, she remained silent with her back to Zhang Xiaofan, unsure of what to do.

At this moment, her mind was in turmoil, and even her proud and delicate body was trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaofan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said:
"It seems Senior Linglong is not going to agree. Fine, I'll leave now and head to Qingyun Sect."

"Farewell!"

After Zhang Xiaofan finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the Holy Tower.

"Wait!"

However, after walking only twenty meters, Linglong's shy voice rang out.

Zhang Xiaofan stopped in his tracks, without turning around, his back to Linglong, and asked knowingly:

"Senior Linglong, what brings you to my residence?"

"Hmph!" Linglong suddenly snorted softly, her voice a mixture of gentle anger and sullenness.

"What's wrong with you? Can't you take the initiative? You have to make the other person say it first."

Zhang Xiaofan's lips curled up slightly as he said:
"I'm too young to understand what Senior Linglong is saying."

“You…” Linglong turned around and glared at Zhang Xiaofan, then suddenly said:

"Turn around!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan turned around instantly.

In that instant of turning around, when he saw Linglong, he was instantly stunned, his gaze burning with intensity…
