My Fairy Growth System

Facing the bewitched Shadow Arrows, Yu Qingtan's embryonic form of water domain expanded, and her Water Escape Technique became even faster.

After the Shadow Arrows entered the water domain's embryonic form, they were suppressed but still managed to bypass the defense of the Canglan Umbrella and hit Yu Qingtan.

Yamamoto Jiro took out a drop of Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk from his Storage Ring, sucked it into his mouth, and instantly felt spiritual power fill his body, returning him to his prime condition.

This was another trump card prepared for him by Tofu Yuan.

"Today, I'll exhaust you to death even if it takes all my energy!"

In Yamamoto Jiro's heart, he was determined; the two had signed up for a life-and-death duel, which wouldn't end until one of them died.

However, to prevent self-destructing one's Golden Core, life-and-death duels at the Third Stage usually end when one party's physical body is destroyed.

Yu Qingtan was merely a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, which was indeed very unfair to her, but she still went ahead.

Seeing Yamamoto Jiro take medicine to recover his spiritual power, Yu Qingtan felt greatly relieved, as this indicated that her opponent had run out of tricks and was preparing to drain each other's energy.

"Let's see who will exhaust whom!"

After another half an hour, Yu Qingtan's breath began to weaken, and she was "accidentally" grazed by a Shadow Arrow on her left shoulder, removing a chunk of flesh.

The audience filled the surroundings below the platform. Although they couldn't see the specifics, the intense collision sounds and occasional flashes of figures still enabled them to feel the intensity of the duel above.

Tofu Yuan and Yamamoto Jiro both looked uneasy; after such a long time, Yamamoto Jiro still hadn't killed his opponent. The people of Tianxiang Valley were also looking worried; although they had confidence in Yu Qingtan, after all, this was a Foundation Establishment fighting against a Golden Core.

Another half an hour later, Yu Qingtan's breath faintly showed signs of falling below Foundation Establishment, covered with multiple arrow wounds.

Yamamoto Jiro, with only four layers of spiritual power left and his soul exhausted, had eyes that became brighter and more ferocious.

"You're finally going down, aren't you!"

Just as the Shadow Arrows were shot again, Yu Qingtan took out the White Desire Lute, plucked the strings with her fingers, and the piercing demonic sound rushed into Yamamoto Jiro's mind, causing him a moment of daze.

In that brief moment of daze, a surge of overwhelming water column had already collided with his body.

It was Yu Qingtan activating the big move of the Canglan Umbrella, the Canglan Water Tornado, whose power reached the Late Stage of the Golden Core.

Even though he was protected by a mid-grade treasure armor, Yamamoto Jiro, who had never practiced Body Refinement, was hit by this attack and was directly blasted away, hitting the formation's light screen with crazy friction.

Yu Qingtan was also pierced through the chest from behind by a Shadow Arrow, but she adjusted her position to avoid the vital points, and the perforated wound caused by the Shadow Awl reappeared exactly where it had been before.

After dozens of breaths, the water column finally lost its strength, and the Canglan Umbrella began to automatically retract the river water.

Yamamoto Jiro's whole body bones were shattered, his internal organs ruptured, and his meridians severed. He barely hung onto a breath of life thanks to the robust vitality of a Golden Core Cultivator.

The embryonic form of the Path Domain of Darkness could no longer be maintained and had dissipated. The Cultivators watching from below discussed the tragic state of the battle, mostly exclaiming at the strength of Yu Qingtan.

Xiang Yiyi and others had anxious expressions, Tofu Yuan and Yamamoto Jiro had faces as dark as water. Tofu Yuan gave Yamamoto Jiro a look.

Yamamoto Jiro, who should have admitted defeat and preserved his life by having his soul enter his Golden Core, received a look from Tofu Yuan, and with a ruthlessness in his heart, spit out a pigeon egg-sized Golden Core from his mouth and chose to self-destruct without hesitation.

"Bang~"

A dazzling white light filled the Dueling Platform, dust rolled, and obscured everyone's vision while the Third Stage protective formation trembled.

"Qingtan~"

Xiang Yiyi, Shui Qingrou, and others shouted and rushed forward, tears brimming in Yiyi's eyes.

The Cultivator on duty hurriedly opened the formation, and True Person Shuiyun rushed onto the Dueling Platform, waved his sleeve, and dust disappeared.

Yu Qingtan lay in a corner of the Dueling Platform, clutching the opened Canglan Umbrella, struggling to squeeze out a faint smile towards the approaching cultivator Shui Yun Zhenren.

Yao Qi Xiaotarou's strength was also among the strong ones in the early stages of the Golden Core, and the self-destruction of his Golden Core was several times more powerful than that of the earlier self-destructing third-stage giant octopus inner core.

Moreover, Yu Qingtan had already been injured before this, and even with the protection of the Canglan Umbrella, she was on the verge of physical collapse from the shock.

Shui Yun Zhenren took out a soft couch, placed Yu Qingtan on it with the Object Controlling Technique, fed her a third-stage Healing Pill, collected Yu Qingtan's spoils of war, and rushed towards the Pavilion of Listening Waves.

After the battle, the no-fly order over Wendao Immortal City was reinstated.

Tu Fei Yuan and Yamamoto Jiro heaved a sigh of disappointment as they failed to kill Yu Qingtan and had to leave dejectedly.

The onlookers cheered, while Xiang Yiyi and others also quickly made their way to the Pavilion of Listening Waves.

After telling Shui Yun Zhenren that she was not seriously hurt, Yu Qingtan was sent back to her room to heal.

Her injuries seemed severe, but with the absence of the dark and sinister aura from last time, under the effects of the Rejuvenation Spell, Purification Spell, and Decay and Flourish Technique, she recovered very quickly, not to mention the third-stage Healing Pill Shui Yun Zhenren had fed her.

As for pain, through consistent Body Refinement, Yu Qingtan had developed a high tolerance for it.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

There shouldn't be anyone who still thinks that all her strength came from cheating, as she had also been extremely diligent in her cultivation.

About an hour later, Yu Qingtan's injuries had largely healed, and then she took out the middle-grade ancient treasure armor, refined it for a while, and claimed it as her own.

Although it was a bit ugly, she still had to use it when necessary. If she had such armor on her today, she would not have been seriously injured.

As for Yao Qi Xiaotarou's Storage Ring, it was destroyed in the self-destruction, which caused Yu Qingtan to secretly lament the loss.

...

The next morning, after a good night's sleep, Yu Qingtan pushed open the door and saw Yan Xi, Xiang Yiyi, and Shui Qingrou already waiting outside.

The three had kept watch all night, which, though not much to a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, still touched Yu Qingtan.

Zhou Lan and the others, after being informed that Yu Qingtan was unharmed, had gone back to their accommodations.

"Qingtan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine now, thanks for your concern."

The four women went to the ground-floor hall, where many people had already arrived.

Soon, everyone arrived and followed Fairy Qi Xun towards the East Square of Wendao Immortal City.

Zixin Zhenren, Yan Shu, Luo Ren, and other injured parties appeared to be mostly recovered.

Xiao Youwei also approached Yu Qingtan, expressing her admiration for Yu Qingtan's strength, seemingly becoming a little fan of hers in the process.

The rest of the Qi Practitioners and Foundation Establishment Cultivators showed a hint of awe towards Yu Qingtan, as she was now fully viewable as a Golden Core Cultivator, if not even more formidable.

The crowd arrived at the East Square and from afar, they saw a gigantic Flying Boat measuring two hundred zhang in length, twice as long as an aircraft carrier from Yu Qingtan's previous life.

The Fourth-Order Flying Boat of Wendao Sect, Tian Wen No. 2. Standing tall with five decks, it was majestic and magnificent, far more imposing than Tianxiang Valley's Tian Xiang.

Today was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, and as scheduled, the Nascent Soul ceremony of the Star River True Monarch of Wendao Sect took place.

Guests staying in the eastern area of Wendao Immortal City would board this Flying Boat to travel to Mount Wendao.

However, these third and fourth-order Flying Boats were not merely transportation; they were also instruments of war.

In the previous calamity with the Sea Clan, these Flying Boats of Wendao Sect played a crucial role, otherwise, it would have been difficult for Wendao Sect to stabilize the situation when the number of enemies at the third and fourth stages outweighed theirs in the early stages.
