My Fairy Growth System

Yu Qingtan hadn't spoken yet when a shadowy figure floated out of the gigantic pagoda, transforming into a monk with a commanding face, exuding an unmatched, terrifying presence.

Yu Qingtan quickly erected a spherical Five Elements Protective Barrier around the three of them, preventing Shen Wanning and Ge Wenxiong from being overwhelmed by the pressure, but even a brief exposure turned their faces deathly pale.

Even Yu Qingtan had to continuously channel Spiritual Power into the Five Elements Protective Barrier just to maintain its stability.

The monk's shadowy figure had deep, ancient well-like eyes that seemed capable of discerning the essence of everything in the world. His gaze swept over the three of them, finally resting on Yu Qingtan, nodding slightly with a hint of approval in his voice, "Five Elements Primordial Immortal Body, quite a good innate talent, and your cultivation level isn't bad either. But the Burial Buddha Ground is no ordinary place, why have you trespassed here?"

Yu Qingtan bowed and said, "Senior, please calm your anger. I, Yu Qingtan of the Wendao Sect, along with two dear friends, have come here in search of an opportunity. If we have caused any disturbances, I ask for your vast forgiveness." Her words were sincere, her demeanor respectful, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

Shen Wanning and Ge Wenxiong, upon hearing about the Five Elements Primordial Immortal Body, were so shocked that they were rendered speechless, staring blankly at Yu Qingtan.

Based on the emitted imposing aura, Yu Qingtan judged that his strength had reached the Void Refinement Stage, or even higher.

The monk's shadow sighed lightly, his surrounding oppressive aura slightly lessened, "Wendao Sect? I've never heard of it! Opportunity? The Burial Buddha Ground are where we rest eternally; there are no opportunities here. You had better leave quickly."

"Senior, that's where you are mistaken," Yu Qingtan responded with a twinkle in her eye and a smile. "The abbot of the Great Thunderclap Monastery once said I am fated with Buddha, and now I coincidentally find myself here. How can I possibly leave empty-handed? May I ask for your esteemed name?"

"I am Monk Vajra, age upon age, and the Great Thunderclap Monastery still exists? Since you know of the Great Thunderclap Monastery, you should know of me, too. Leave quickly, there is no opportunity for you here!"

After revealing his name, the aura around the shadowy figure seemed to solidify slightly, his deep eyes flashing with complex emotions, including reminiscence of the past as well as a subtle warning to the uninvited guests.

"Vajra Monk, you? Ridiculous, I could tell at a glance that you're no human, die!" Yu Qingtan sneered coldly, suddenly manifesting five long swords around her body—Four Superior Dao Artifact Longswords in addition to the Canglan Sword—forming the Five Elements Linked Sword Array, striking towards the shadow.

The Vajra Monk was indeed briefly mentioned in some ancient texts that Yu Qingtan had come across. He was an ancient Buddha Sect high monk and a top cultivator at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, possessing one of the Ten Great Immortal Bodies, the Vajra Indestructible Body, but he had disappeared later, presumably perishing in a great calamity.

Yu Qingtan observed the shadowy figure with the Purifying Buddha Eye Technique, and saw beneath the bright exterior lay deeply embedded evil intentions, and it was externally strong but internally weak.

She discreetly used the Hongluan Secret Omen to deduce the outcome of beginning an attack, and the result was very auspicious; without hesitation, she took action.

Facing Yu Qingtan's sudden attack, a look of surprise flashed across the shadow's face, but it was quickly replaced by seriousness. He hadn't expected this young woman to see through his illusion and attack without hesitation.

"Hmph, presumptuous child!" The shadow snorted coldly, his figure instantly becoming blurred, as if merging with the surrounding shadows, avoiding the first wave of the Five Elements Linked Sword Array attack.

Body Merging into the Void was a signature technique of those above the Void Refinement Stage.

"Vajra Indestructible Fist!" the Vajra Monk shouted, his aura surging, an ancient and solemn Buddha Light enveloping his body, seemingly solidifying the space around him as well.

His form gradually materialized, no longer a ghostly projection, but as if a real Buddha Sect high monk had descended, his fists flying towards Yu Qingtan.

Yu Qingtan saw the situation, her eyes flashed with seriousness, but she did not back down. Instead, she pushed Shen Wanning and Ge Wenxiong aside and transformed herself into a streak of light, continuing to attack with the Five Elements Linked Sword Formation.

"Spatial Confinement, Great Stabilizing Divine Art, Five Elements Unite!"

Yu Qingtan silently chanted in her heart and performed the Daoist Space Imprisonment Technique and Great Stabilizing Divine Art while five Superior Dao Artefact longswords emitted five streams of Sword Qi that merged into one and struck out.

The Sword Qi was like a rainbow, tearing through the condensed space and heading straight for the Vajra Monk's fist shadow. The two met fiercely in mid-air, bursting out with blinding light and deafening roars as if even heaven and earth were changing color. Dust rose along with tumbling air currents as the ancient aura of the Burial Buddha Ground was thoroughly stirred.

The Vajra Monk's fist shadow was struck by the Sword Qi and dissipated immediately. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes as he tried to continue merging into the void to evade, but he found that he had failed and seemed to be immobilized in place.

Subsequently, the Vajra Monk was shredded by Yu Qingtan's Five Elements Sword Qi, but no blood or flesh flew; instead, a black mist appeared, emitting an extremely uncomfortable aura.

"Indeed, this is not the Vajra Monk, nor does he possess real Void Refinement Stage strength! But what is this?" Yu Qingtan wondered, then without any hesitation, she repeated the same set of minor combinations again.

However, the black mist still remained.

"Haha, young one, I am the undying source of Inner Demons. I was willing to let you leave, but since you insist on staying and attacking me, then accept my baptism!" A haughty laugh came from the black mist, which then spread out and enveloped Yu Qingtan. Discover stories with My Virtual Library Empire

Yu Qingtan's heart chilled, source of Inner Demons, she had not heard of it, but she knew of the ancient Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation, also known as the Inner Demons Great Tribulation.

However, Yu Qingtan was not afraid and directly used the Origin Dao Technique—Great Universal Zen Light.

"Buddha Light shines universal, banish evil and demons!" Yu Qingtan clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and concentrated, an invisible wave of light spreading from within her.

"Ah~ You can actually use the Great Universal Zen Light of the Universal Zen Monks! Ah~ I am not willing, in just a little while longer, I would have completely opened the Lotus Flower Treasury Sea, to reconquer all! Ah~"

With successive pitiful screams, the black mist fluctuated violently and gradually became thinner until it disappeared.

With the black mist gone, the Burial Buddha Ground returned to calmness, leaving only a faint Buddha Light and lingering dust, witnessing this sudden fierce battle.

Shen Wanning and Ge Wenxiong hurried forward, worriedly inquiring about Yu Qingtan's condition.

"Qing Tan, are you alright? What exactly is the source of Inner Demons?" Shen Wanning asked anxiously, her voice full of concern.

"I'm fine, Wanning, Brother Ge, this is also my first time hearing about it, but I suspect it's related to the Vajra Monk's Inner Demon," Yu Qingtan said, looking towards the giant pagoda where the source of Inner Demons had appeared.

"Amitabha, thank you, benefactor, for helping me banish the source of Inner Demons!" Just then, another voice came from the giant pagoda, and the tone was identical to that of the source of Inner Demons earlier.
