There are a lot of dramas with these tags with very high scores. So, I feel a bit overwhelmed trying to choose one to begin with. Which one of them would you personally recommend as your favorite? 

Eternal Love/Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms

Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms is the best Xianxia. Start with it. 

Eternal Love of Dream  (Xianxia) ( Three Lives, Three Worlds, The Pillow Book) - this is beautiful and cute and tells the story of Bai Feng Jiu and Dong Hua (from Eternal Love, where they were side characters) right, according to novels. Their story in Eternal Love was mostly made up, because they didn't have licensing rights for the Pillow Book, where their romance story happens.
Both dramas are standalone, so you don't need to watch them in right order.

Joy of Life (Wuxia) - very good drama with very strong ML.
Your Highness (Wuxia) - mostly comedy and parody with slight romance. ML becomes trapped in a game. It is really funny and ML is extremely strong.

Fights Break Sphere: Season 1 - just to mention, that there is also 3rd genre Xuanhuan. It is like Xianxia, but without immortal beings and more focused on adventure.

Love and Redemption. My first Xianxia dramas and I fell in love with this genre after this. The male lead is so handsome and so heartbreakingly in love with the female lead. The female lead is so cute and cool at the same time. Some dialogues just really stuck with me. The story stays interesting and engaging, and there is a lot of mystery. Things connect in the end. 


My top would be:

Eternal Love   (yea, I would start with this one)
Eternal Love of Dream    (a spin off, more romance focused on those two leads)
Love and Redemption   
Ashes of Love
