My Fairy Growth System

The presence of Sixth Layer Qi Cultivation spiritual power within her body, along with the mastery of the fully-realized Water Blade Technique and the advanced Water Curtain Technique, gave Yu Qingtan a sense of immense power.

Yu Qingtan knew that Hao Can also specialized in water-based cultivation techniques and spells, but she didn’t expect his proficiency in spells to be so high, truly worthy of a Loose Cultivator.

At that moment, as the Flame Wolf attacked again, Yu Qingtan raised her hand slightly, and a Water Blade took shape, slashing towards it at a speed that the Flame Wolf couldn’t dodge, then directly splitting it in two.

Instant kill.

The scene was a bit bloody.

However, Yu Qingtan couldn’t concern herself with these details, as her figure flashed, and she was already by the side of the pond.

This place could also be considered the home ground for water attribute spells.

With Yu Qingtan’s spiritual power circulating, seven Water Blades shot out almost simultaneously, and under the incredulous gazes of the two surviving cultivators, she once again instantly killed the remaining four Flame Wolves.

That even included a late-stage First Stage Flame Wolf.

It was already greatly weakened, only managing to block one Water Blade before being cut into three pieces by the remaining two.

According to Yu Qingtan’s observations, the Water Blade was somewhat similar to the high-pressure water jets of her previous life, but she didn’t know how the Water Blade Technique produced such an effect.

Putting aside her wandering thoughts, Yu Qingtan considered whether she should collect these wolf corpses.

The two young cultivators who had finally recovered came forward with their fists cupped and said, "We thank daoist friend for saving our lives."

"I am You Xiwang, the young master of the You family!"

"I am Ge Wenyu from the Ges!"

Yu Qingtan really wanted to comment on their names.

She remembered You Xiwang, who was indeed one of the attendees accompanying the Family Head of the You family to the birthday celebration.

She had no impression of Ge Wenyu.

You and Ge both had their doubts, wondering how this young girl, dressed in the Tianxiang Pavilion’s clothes, could be so powerful, and what was the story behind it.

This time Yu Qingtan and the others from the orchestra were dressed in uniform gowns.

"Don’t mention it. We were all calculated against by the demonic beasts, so we ought to help each other. What’s the situation here? I am Yu Qingtan, a disciple from within the Tianxiang Pavilion. Have you seen any other people from the Tianxiang Pavilion?"

"So it’s Daoist Yu from the Tianxiang Pavilion. It seems that you also know we are inside the Trial Demon Tower. After teleporting in, everyone was mostly scattered about. However, I quickly encountered a clan brother, a junior from the Song family, and Daoist You, after which we discovered this pond,"

"Together, we killed a mid-First Stage Desolate Beast old turtle in the pond, obtaining eight Wasteland Crystals and a Desolate Lotus Seed, but just as we were collecting them, we were surrounded by this pack of Flame Wolves. My clan brother and Daoist Song from the Song family..."

Ge Wenyu’s voice filled with unending sadness as he recounted that his eleven-year-old clan brother had perished here.

"Alas, if it weren’t for Daoist Yu, Daoist Ge and I would probably have also fallen prey to the wolves. These Wasteland Crystals and the Desolate Lotus Seed should be given to Daoist Yu. If we manage to survive and get out of here alive, we will definitely find a way to repay Daoist Yu," You Xiwang said as he took out eight Wasteland Crystals and a lotus seed from his chest.

The Desolate Lotus Seed was also a treasure that had miraculous effects on Body Refinement and unlike the Wasteland Crystal, which required the use of Body Refining Techniques for absorption, the Desolate Lotus Seed could be directly consumed for absorption.

A Desolate Lotus could only produce one effective Desolate Lotus Seed at a time.

Yu Qingtan didn’t put on airs and accepted the Wasteland Crystals and the Desolate Lotus Seed.

However, she realized that You Xiwang probably expected her to accompany them, so she said, "I don’t want to hide it from the two daoist friends, but this strength of mine is only due to a fortunate opportunity that has temporarily enhanced me. My actual strength isn’t even as good as the two of you. I need to find the sisters from the Tianxiang Pavilion, so I will take my leave now."

Based on the fluctuations in their magical power during their previous battle, Yu Qingtan knew that both were at the Sixth Layer of Qi Cultivation, and You Xiwang even had a rather impressive defensive treasure that allowed him to last a long time under the wolves’ siege.

You Xiwang and Ge Wenyu’s eyes flickered with disappointment when they heard this, as they had no confidence in surviving for three days on their own.

If they could accompany Yu Qingtan, with the combat power she had just shown, there would have been a much greater hope of survival.

Yu Qingtan didn’t wait for them to speak further; her figure flashed, and she had already disappeared.

The quarter-hour was almost up, and she didn’t bother with the wolf corpses.

Even though they were worth quite a few Spirit Stones, who could blame her for not having a Storage Bag?

Based on the description provided by Ge and You, Yu Qingtan surmised that she had been teleported to a more peripheral location of the Trial Demon Tower.

The trial grounds of the Trial Demon Tower were roughly circular in shape.

Both the sun and the moon were situated directly above the center, though those weren’t the real celestial bodies, but rather effects of a Formation.

Yu Qingtan just kept heading towards the center based on the position of the sun.

The closer to the center, the more opportunities and treasures there were, so trial participants generally aimed for the central area.

That way, the likelihood of finding Shen Wanning would be greater.

Not long after leaving the Ges and You Xiwang, Yu Qingtan reverted to the third layer of Qi Cultivation, and both the Water Blade Technique and Water Curtain Technique were no longer available.

"I must learn these two spells,"

Suddenly, Yu Qingtan discovered a demonic wolf lying ahead, still breathing.

Yu Qingtan carefully approached to check and found that the wolf’s hind leg was broken, and it had several claw wounds on its body.

Interestingly, the wolf did not resemble a wolf but looked more like the ’Erha’ from Yu Qingtan’s previous life, and additionally, it lacked a tail.

Yu Qingtan used a sliver of spiritual power to probe its body.

"As expected, there’s a human race aura, it’s a half-demon,"

The aura of demonic beasts is entirely different from that of the human race and can be easily distinguished.

Demonic beasts can transform into human form at the third stage and can have offspring with human cultivators.

These are called half-demons.

"Let’s see what fate has in store for you!"

With a thought from Yu Qingtan, an ant nearby appeared in the grid of the System Space.

Yu Qingtan observed that the ant was still alive but in a state similar to hibernation.

Upon releasing it back outside, the ant woke up and continued to crawl forward.

"Just as I suspected, the System Space grid can also be used like a Spirit Beast Pouch."

The so-called spiritual beasts are, in fact, tamed demonic beasts.

This "Erha" looked quite adorable, and after all, it also had human bloodline.

So, Yu Qingtan took out her injury medicine to give its wounds a simple treatment before admitting it into her System Space.

"It’s a pity there are no spiritual pills or elixirs."

She had no other means to treat it further.

Half-demons are actually not well-received by either the demonic beasts or human race, as the injuries from the wolf-type demonic beasts on this "Erha" subtly revealed.

However, Yu Qingtan held no prejudice against half-demons.

In fact, she felt even fonder of the half-demon "Erha" because of a certain Night Yaksha.

After that, Yu Qingtan continued on her way.

Along the way, she ate the Desolate Lotus Seed.

Without the need to meditate and refine it, Yu Qingtan’s body was slowly enhanced.

It was that convenient.

During the journey, she encountered groups of demonic beasts or Desolate Beasts three times, all of which she avoided using the Water Escape Technique.

Finally, before nightfall, she left the prairie and entered a mountainous forested area.

Yu Qingtan found a secluded cave, hid inside, and then disguised the entrance.

After eating some cakes, Yu Qingtan began to meditate and rest.

Not traveling at night in the wilderness is common knowledge among lower-level cultivators.

"I wonder how Wanning is doing and whether she has had anything to eat..."

The next day, Yu Qingtan woke up well-rested from light sleep.

By then, the effects of the Desolate Lotus Seed had been fully absorbed, and Yu Qingtan felt that the strength of her body had likely increased significantly.

She pinched her arm and felt no pain at all.

Moreover, she found herself taller, probably about 156 cm now.

What was more critical was that she had grown in certain areas.

Yu Qingtan felt a mix of emotions once again.
