My Fairy Growth System

"Blood Rebirth... how is that possible!" Yanshi Saint Venerable's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Blood Rebirth, an ability close to an undying body, is a signature technique of Eighth Stage Tribulation Crossing Body Cultivators. Why would Wuniang, a Dao Integration Stage Body Cultivator from the Eternal Sect, also be capable of this?

Yanshi Saint Venerable had employed the Karma Fire Red Lotus, his Lifebound Artifact, to unleash a deadly strike, expending a tremendous amount of energy. Caught off guard by Yu Qingtan's punch, he had already sustained serious injuries.

Outside the Life and Death Platform, the crowd was in an uproar. Many cultivators widened their eyes, unable to believe what was unfolding before them.

Yu Ning Saint Venerable and Xuange Saint Venerable looked at each other, eyes full of both shock and wild joy.

"Hmph, thinking that mere Karmic Fire could kill me?" Yu Qingtan's figure reappeared, completely unharmed, now dressed in a brand-new, light blue gown.

"Wuniang, I... I admit defeat, spare my life!" Yanshi Saint Venerable, now completely devoid of any power to resist, and aware that self-destruction was forbidden on the Life and Death Platform—for it would result in being suppressed by the Eighth Stage Array—could only beg for mercy.

The victor choosing to not kill the loser was permissible according to the rules of the Life and Death Platform.

"You climbed onto the Life and Death Platform and still hope to live?" Yu Qingtan said with a cold laugh, about to end this man with a punch.

"Wait, if you let Brother Lu go, I am willing to give you Song Peihuang, the beloved disciple of Yu Ning Immortal, and all of Brother Lu's possessions apart from his Lifebound Artifact!" shouted Shunsheng Saint Venerable from below the platform.

"Song Peihuang, what has she to do with me!" Yu Qingtan declared as she swung out another punch.

"Stop!" Shunsheng Saint Venerable's cry was a moment too late. Like thunder, Yu Qingtan's fist fell, carrying an irreversible force, and struck Yanshi Saint Venerable's chest with ruthless intensity.

A look of despair flashed across Yanshi Saint Venerable's eyes as his body crumbled under the immense force, turning into specks of dust that scattered atop the Life and Death Platform, leaving behind only a Storage Ring and a small flame lotus.

Outside the Life and Death Platform, there was a deathly silence, followed by an explosive wave of discussions. No one had anticipated that Wuniang of the Eternal Sect—who seemed destined to be defeated and perish—would possess Blood Rebirth, allowing her to turn the tables and win against all odds.

"You... you actually killed him!" Shunsheng Saint Venerable's face was ashen. He hadn't expected that his offer would fail to save Yanshi Saint Venerable's life.

"Next is you. Do you have the courage to face your death on the platform?" Yu Qingtan collected her spoils of victory and stared provocatively at Shunsheng Saint Venerable.

Although she'd only read about the Joyful Demon Sect in the archives of the Longevity Imperial Palace, she had a deep aversion to this power, which focused on dual cultivation and energy extraction.

"Hmph, Wuniang of the Eternal Sect, isn't it? I'll remember you. Be careful from now on!" Shunsheng Saint Venerable snorted coldly, then turned and left, clearly not confident in his ability to defeat Yu Qingtan on the Life and Death Platform.

"Li Shunsheng, you should be the one to be careful. My Jade Pool Fairy Palace won't let you off!" Yu Ning Immortal Venerable shouted at Shunsheng Saint Venerable, but he paid no attention.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist Wuniang!" After Yu Qingtan descended from the Life and Death Platform, Yu Ning Saint Venerable expressed her gratitude.

"No need to be polite. I hope Yu Ning Immortal doesn't blame me for not accepting Li Shunsheng's terms to save your beloved disciple," Yu Qingtan said with a smile.

"Cultivators from the Demon Sect often lack integrity, so it was the right choice for Wuniang not to agree with them. I, Peihuang, will think of another way," said Yu Ning Saint Venerable.

"Amitabha, I am Kong Yan, a Saintly Monk from the Great Thunderclap Monastery. Wuniang has exceptional strength in body refinement. May I ask about the origins of your Eternal Sect? Would it be possible to exchange knowledge on body refinement?" At this moment, Kong Yan Saintly Monk, who had come to watch the battle and was also a Dao Integration Realm Body Cultivator from a sect that excels in body refinement, stepped forward to inquire.

"The Saintly Monk honors us with his presence. My sect, the Eternal Sect, is a reclusive sect with few disciples, and it is not convenient to reveal more about our specifics. However, I have long admired your monastery's technique of body refinement, and we can discuss it together when there is an opportunity," replied Yu Qingtan with a smile.

Subsequently, other Saint Venerables from powerful forces of the Daluo Empire who had come to watch the battle also came forward to get acquainted with Wuniang of the newly emerged Eternal Sect, and Yu Qingtan was happy to interact with these fellows.

As a result, over twenty Body Integration Stage Cultivators held a small discussion meeting and resource exchange gathering.

"I have a thousand-year Flat Peach from the Jade Pool Fairy Palace and would like to exchange it for a Seventh Stage Water Attribute Spirit Ore," said Xuange Saint Venerable of the Jade Pool Fairy Palace, taking out a peach as large as a head.

"I have a piece of Seventh Stage Deep Sea Water Manganese Ore here. See if it suits you," said Bing Yun Saint Venerable of the Ice Palace.

"I have a fragment of an ancient immortal sword artifact and would like to exchange it for a Spirit Treasure that could help break through the Body Integration Realm," said Tianji Saint Venerable from Cangqiong Sword Sect. No one responded this time.

...

During the resource exchange, the Saint Venerables mostly offered top-notch items of the Seventh Stage, some of which Yu Qingtan also coveted, but unfortunately, she had nothing suitable to exchange and could only silently observe and learn.

"I have a set of Superior Dao Artefact-level replica of the ancient Five Elements Treasure Flag and wish to exchange it for information about two cultivators," said Yunhui Saint Venerable from the Qian Family, taking out five small flags and a Memory Stone.

The ancient Five Elements Treasure Flag consists of the Central Yellow Apricot and Loess Flag, the East Green Lotus Treasure Flag, the South Vermillion Bird Flame Light Banner, the West White Misty Cloud Banner, and the North Dark Water Controlling Banner. Its power is profound and unpredictable, and there are many replicas within the Cultivation World. For instance, the Lifebound Artifact of the Sect Master Kongbei of the Outer Domain Wendao Sect is a replica of the South Vermillion Bird Flame Light Banner.

A complete set of Superior Dao Artefacts of the Five Elements Treasure Flag are rare treasures for Body Integration Stage Cultivators, yet it was being offered in exchange for information on two cultivators. Everyone looked at the images projected by the Memory Stone, showing two female cultivators engaging in a massacre.

"These two are only in the Divine Transformation Late Stage, but they have repeatedly ambushed the caravans traveling to the Taiyi Sect under the Qian Family, accumulating heinous crimes. Unfortunately, we have been unable to locate them. If anyone can provide valid information on these two and help us capture them, the set of the Five Elements Treasure Flag will be their reward," explained Yunhui Saint Venerable without waiting for the crowd's inquiries, while observing the reactions of all present with his Divine Sense.

Unfortunately, everyone maintained their composure without any notable reaction. They all understood Yunhui Saint Venerable's meaning; those daring to rob the Qian Family's caravans and still remaining undiscovered were likely backed by someone powerful.

Moreover, one of the female cultivators in the Memory Stone even wielded an Immortal Artifact, so even though there was a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator in the caravan, they were utterly annihilated. Among the Body Integration Stage Cultivators present, there were only a few who possessed an Immortal Artifact.

Yu Qingtan maintained an impassive expression, yet her heart was somewhat turbulent. The two in the Memory Stone, although they had changed their appearances, were handling a certain Immortal Artifact that was unmistakably Feng Wuyue's Shenfeng Cannon.

Which meant that the two female cultivators were likely Feng Wuyue and Shen Wanning.

"We don't have much impression of these two female cultivators; they might be from the Da Gao Empire," spoke out Yu Ning Saint Venerable from the Jade Pool Fairy Palace after a few breaths.

"Our Qian Family also thinks so, but these two thieves are cunning. We hope our fellow cultivators can help keep an eye out. Until they are caught, the information exchange for the Five Elements Treasure Flag remains valid," Yunhui Saint Venerable continued.
