My Fairy Growth System

Yu Qingtan and Yan Xi wore peculiar expressions.

They recognized it as the voice of Venerable Yong Li.

Yu Qingtan wondered whether to disturb them when the voice of Rou Jia Venerable reached her ears.

"Qing Tan, come on in."

Yu Qingtan pushed open the door of the courtyard hesitantly, leading Yan Xi inside.

There, they saw Rou Jia Venerable sitting in a lounge chair, wielding a spiritual artifact-level metal hammer, her forehead beaded with sweat.

Venerable Yong Li, wearing a set of short training clothes, held a pair of huge hammers in both hands, his body covered in bruises.

The stone ground bore impressions from Venerable Yong Li's feet, evidently, the hammers were terrifyingly heavy.

After all, this was a cultivator in the Late Stage of the Golden Core.

By this time, both Venerable Yong Li and Rou Jia Venerable's faces were flushed.

"Is this their idea of courtship? They know how to lighten the mood!" Yu Qingtan inwardly ridiculed, keeping her eyes down in respect, bowing in greeting.

"Greetings to my master and martial granduncle!"

"Greetings to Rou Jia Venerable and Yong Li Venerable."

Yan Xi also pretended not to notice anything unusual and followed with a bow.

Hearing Yu Qingtan publicly refer to Venerable Yong Li as martial granduncle, Rou Jia Venerable's cheeks turned redder, but she did not retort, instead, she put away her metal hammer, stood up, and addressed the two.

"Qing Tan, that's a pretty dress you have on today!"

Yu Qingtan was wearing a light blue knee-length dress with flesh-toned stockings that day, looking very fresh and clean.

She had long grown tired of the pink long dress that was the uniform of Tianxiang Valley.

"It's still not as beautiful as your dress, Master!"

"Alright, now that you're here, let's go! You continue practicing on your own!"

Rou Jia Venerable said. She had arranged to take Yu Qingtan to the Water Vein today and did not expect her to arrive so early; the latter part was directed at Yong Li Venerable.

Venerable Yong Li was slightly annoyed at Yu Qingtan for interrupting his and Rou Jia Venerable's cultivation, but it wouldn't do to quarrel with a junior, especially since she had called him martial granduncle, so he communicated telepathically to Rou Jia Venerable.

"Come back early!"

Upon leaving the courtyard, the three of them took Rou Jia Venerable's small flying boat to the Water Vein.

On the flying boat, Yu Qingtan couldn't help but ask, "Master, was martial granduncle practicing some sort of body refining technique?"

"You have quite an eye. He is indeed practicing a body refining technique known as the 'Thousand Hammer Refining Technique', which involves continuously hammering the body like forging a tool to strengthen it."

"I see!"

After that, Rou Jia Venerable further introduced some basic information about the Wendao Sect to Yu Qingtan.

For example, Yong Li Venerable was the direct disciple of the Houde Honored One, the chief of the Earth Vein, and Yin Cen, who had recently returned from the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, also became Houde Honored One's youngest direct disciple.

Soon, the three of them arrived at a building complex next to a river flowing from the peak of Mount Wendao, with a waterfall standing three thousand feet tall beside it, a magnificent sight.

The scene made Yu Qingtan think of a verse from her previous life by the poet Li Bai: "A waterfall cascading down three thousand feet, as if the Milky Way had tumbled from the ninth heaven."

When they set off, Rou Jia Venerable had sent a message via a Message-Transmitting Flying Sword, so there were disciples from the Water Vein to greet them upon arrival.

The three arrived at the Hall of Waterways, where, to their surprise, they were met by Meng Xinghe, the true monarch of the Star River.

"Sister Meng, I've come to see you."

Rou Jia Venerable said, seemingly having a close relationship with the true monarch of the Star River.

There were no Divinity Transformation stage cultivators currently in the Water Vein, and the chief was in the Nascent Soul Late Stage, spending most of the time in seclusion. Meng Xinghe had considerable influence in the Water Vein and also had a good relationship with Rou Jia Venerable, so it was natural for Rou Jia Venerable to come to her.

"Ha, don't you spend all your time sweet-talking with Yong Li? When do you ever think of visiting me? You must have come today for your disciple, right?"

Meng Xinghe teased.

"Sister Meng, you jest. Just yesterday, I saw Sister Meng in all her glory. Qing Tan, come greet your Master Meng."

"Disciple Yu Qingtan pays respect to Master Meng."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Yu Qingtan quickly followed with a bow.

"Mmm, what a good girl, and her talent is much stronger than your cheap master's, why not come directly to our Water Vein and become my disciple?"

Venerable Star River was very gentle with Qing Tan.

"Sister Meng, poaching my disciple right in front of me is rather unscrupulous of you."

"Who says you can't have two masters?"

"Thank you, Venerable Meng, for your generous affection. My master is very kind to Qing Tan, and with my master, Qing Tan is already very content."

Yu Qingtan quickly declined.

Although having a powerful master as a backer was good, the more powerful they were, the greater the risk of her secret being exposed.

"Good disciple, you do not disappoint your master's careful instruction."

Real Person Rou Jia was somewhat moved.

Venerable Star River gave her a white look, knowing well that Yu Qingtan had only met Real Person Rou Jia for the first time yesterday.

"Since that's the case, let's leave it for now. After all, you are also a registered true disciple of our Water Path.

Your master has already told me of your intent. As a true disciple of the Water Path, you naturally have the right to choose a suitable cultivation technique from our path. Come with me."

After speaking, Venerable Star River led Yu Qingtan and the other two out of the Hall of Waterways, through winding corridors, and arrived at the Scripture Pavilion of the Water Vein.

Venerable Star River asked Real Person Rou Jia and Yan Xi to wait in the first-floor hall, then took Yu Qingtan directly up to the fourth floor, which only had two rows of shelves.

Venerable Star River pointed to the top row on one of the shelves and said, "Here are some of the cultivation techniques of our Water Path that can be cultivated up to the Late Phase of Divine Transformation. You can choose one from among these. The outermost one is the Jade Slip with descriptions of these techniques."

Yu Qingtan stepped forward, picked up the Jade Slip, and started to inspect it.

Tide-Born of Azure Sea Canon.

Water Source Sutra.

Nine Elements Heavy Water Scripture.

Blissful Union of Water and Milk Canon.

Two Realms of Water and Fire.

Canon of Dark Water and Withered Wood.

Move Mountains and Overturn Seas Canon.

Splendor of Water, Wood, and Metal Canon.

Canon of the Five Elements and Primordial Chaos.

All were cultivation techniques suitable for cultivators with a main Water Spirit Root, including single attribute, dual attributes, and multiple attributes, and there was even a dual cultivation technique.

After reviewing them, Yu Qingtan considered for a few moments and then made her decision, looking towards Venerable Star River.

"Have you made your choice?"

"Venerable Meng, I choose the Canon of the Five Elements and Primordial Chaos."

Venerable Star River was quite surprised and asked, "What is your Spirit Root?"

"To answer Venerable Meng, I originally have the Water, Wood, and Earth Spirit Roots. By chance, I used Stone Marrow Milk, which brought my Water Spirit Root to superior quality, and the others to inferior quality."

Yu Qingtan naturally could not tell the whole truth and chose to share only a part of it.

"I see, I thought you were at least a superior single Water Spirit Root. However, even so, choosing a single Water attribute technique would still be a better option.

This Canon of the Five Elements and Primordial Chaos is most suitable for cultivators who have all five-element Spirit Roots at least at medium quality, and moreover, its cultivation speed will be very slow."

Venerable Star River advised.

"Venerable Meng, I have another opportunity. I feel that this Canon of the Five Elements and Primordial Chaos is quite suitable for me."

Considering Yu Qingtan's current age and strength, Venerable Star River refrained from continuing to persuade her.

In the Cultivation World, there were all sorts of opportunities, and it was not her place to probe too deeply. If Yu Qingtan felt it was suitable for herself, then so be it.

Venerable Star River took out her own Identity Jade Token, used it to open the formation, and took out the Jade Slip for the Canon of the Five Elements and Primordial Chaos, allowing Yu Qingtan to learn it on the spot.

This Jade Slip was just a copy, for one-time use.
