My Fairy Growth System

After the auction ended, night had already fallen.

The market was still bustling.

Yu Qingtan went straight home and her consciousness returned to her body.

She lit a stick of Calming Incense and took out the Spring Condensed Zither, playing "Purification of Soul" for a while, which made Yu Qingtan feel an unprecedented calm.

She undressed and performed a complete Cleansing Spell on herself.

Sitting cross-legged within the Vajra Protective Spirit Array, beneath her were laid one hundred Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

She took out the remaining half-drop of Second Stage Spirit Dew and swallowed it.

At the same time, her thoughts moved.

Two First Stage Cultivation Upgrade Cards were used.

Instantly, spiritual power churned inside Yu Qingtan's body. She began to circulate the Clear Water Technique, moving the spiritual energy in a full circle and absorbing it continuously. Chapter Discover:

Even though her meridians and Dantian were achingly swollen, Yu Qingtan ignored the pain and continued to circulate her cultivation technique.

After an unknown number of cycles, Yu Qingtan felt her meridians and Dantian vibrating slightly, expanding and contracting at the same time.

After such vibrations for a dozen breaths, as if reaching a certain critical point, her meridians and Dantian expanded and no longer contracted.

The residual spiritual power of the Spirit Dew violently poured into her meridians and flowed into her Dantian, then transforming into droplets of liquid spiritual energy.

If the spiritual power cannot be converted into liquid form in the Dantian, it signifies a failure in Foundation Establishment — the so-called 'Spiritual Power Barrier'.

A failure at the Spiritual Power Barrier would result in the meridians remaining damaged due to the lack of subsequent tempering, leading to a decline in the realm of cultivation.

Soon, the spiritual energy from the Spirit Dew was exhausted, and the nature's spiritual energy from the outside started to surge into Yu Qingtan's body.

The concentration of nature's spiritual energy in this house was clearly insufficient to sustain Yu Qingtan's Foundation Establishment needs, thus the spiritual energy from the Medium Grade Spirit Stones beneath her was also rapidly drawn into her body.

The rapid influx of external spiritual energy was also a process of tempering the physical body; if the body cannot withstand it, it would explode and result in death — this is referred to as the 'Physical Body Barrier'.

The tempering process was very painful, but to Yu Qingtan, who had experienced the pain of Body Refinement, it was trivial. She even started practicing the Ice Skin Jade Bone Art simultaneously.

When the liquid spiritual energy inside Yu Qingtan's Dantian reached one hundred and eight droplets, her body finally stopped absorbing spiritual energy.

Her body expelled some black impurities, part of the process of cleansing and bone washing during Foundation Establishment.

Yu Qingtan took out the Soul Nourishing Liquid, used her spiritual power to turn it into mist, and enveloped her head with it.

At the same time, Yu Qingtan's divine sense roamed through her Sea of Consciousness.

In a sensing within the dark, it reached a certain place, as if a light appeared in the darkness, or as though a singularity emerged in the endless space and time.

A hazy area was born in Yu Qingtan's mind, where her divine sense took residence.

This was opening the Niwan Palace, pioneering the Sea of Consciousness, the birth of Divine Sense.

This was the final barrier of Foundation Establishment, the Soul Barrier.

Failing to cross it means the soul would extinguish, leading to death and the vanishing of the Dao.

At this step, Yu Qingtan's Foundation Establishment was successful.

Yu Qingtan tried to release her Divine Sense and felt its range; surprisingly, it could explore up to a hundred zhang.

It is known that the Divine Sense exploration range of an average cultivator in the early, middle, and late stages of Foundation Establishment is approximately 30 to 80 zhang, 80 to 130 zhang, and 130 to 180 zhang respectively.

Obviously, the strength of Yu Qingtan's Divine Sense was already no weaker than many in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Such a powerful Divine Sense might be related to her transmigration, or it might be related to her frequent playing of "Purification of Soul," or it could be related to the portion of Soul Nourishing Liquid that had already turned into ordinary droplets.

Yu Qingtan once again assessed his physical body, realizing that the immense upgrade to his physical strength that came with the Foundation Establishment Stage was significant, leaving him feeling no worse than an average late-stage cultivator at the same level.

Logically speaking, the infusion of spiritual power shouldn't have been sufficient to enhance the body's strength to such a degree, yet that was precisely the outcome. Previously, despite Yu Qingtan's hard efforts in advancing the Ice Skin Jade Bone Art to the seventh level of body refinement, he barely matched the strength of a cultivator at the initial Foundation Establishment Stage who did not practice body refinement.

According to ancient texts, some powerful cultivators speculated that this might be related to the laws of nature and earth.

Beyond the increase in physical strength, Yu Qingtan felt that he had grown taller and bigger.

"I must be about 163 cm tall now, and finally over the embarrassment of a double-A size," he mused.

After casting the Cleansing Spell on himself once more, Yu Qingtan looked at his physique with satisfaction. Then he put away the Medium Grade Spirit Stone, which had used up much of his spiritual power, donned a self-made white silk nightgown, and stepped out of the Vajra Protective Spirit Array.

He opened the system panel.

[Age: 15/237]

[Cultivation Level: Early Foundation Establishment Stage 15/20000, Body Refinement Eighth Level 623/800]

Right then, fireworks could be seen bursting into the sky above the Immortal City from the window.

The new year had arrived.

Yu Qingtan couldn't help but feel a multitude of emotions as he recited aloud:

"As a guest from afar in Tian Xiang, who knows the bitterness mixed with luck half a year brings.

In front of the assessment platform, once I stood as a concubine; within the trial tower, I almost turned to ruins.

The delicate dance entertains with laughter, the lingering tune of the qin quiets the beasts' cries.

Braving waves and cleaving tides prepared for all undertakings, welcoming the new year as I lay the foundations of my path."

He let out Xiao Tao to join him in watching, and it was only after half an hour that the fireworks began to subside.

Having watched the fireworks, Yu Qingtan took out the second-stage Purification Spell Jade Slip he had acquired at an auction, and by probing it with his divine sense, the knowledge of the second-stage Purification Spell was imprinted into his mind.

Yu Qingtan discovered that indeed, the main spiritual power circuit of the Purification Spell was similar to the Cleansing Spell, but it required a greater amount of spiritual energy and more precise control, thus necessitating the collaboration of the spiritual power and divine sense exclusive to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

After several attempts, Yu Qingtan was able to cast the Purification Spell smoothly.

After all, the Cleansing Spell was the simplest of first-stage spells, and its advanced form, the Purification Spell, was not difficult either.

However, this was true only for Yu Qingtan, who had mastered the Cleansing Spell.

For an average cultivator, mastering first-stage spells might be easy to learn but hard to perfect, while second-stage spells are difficult to learn and even harder to perfect. That's why the average cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Stage generally does not have more than three masterfully executed spells, and those at the Foundation Establishment Stage typically master no more than two spells, often deriving directly from the first-stage spells they are adept in.

For anything lacking, cultivators would then rely on spiritual artifacts, spirit pets, talismans, and other means to make up for it.

After practicing for half an hour, Yu Qingtan's Purification Spell achieved great proficiency, but there was still an approximate 5000 progress point gap before it was flawless.

Yu Qingtan purified all of his belongings with the Purification Spell, as the greatly proficient spell was now capable of removing imprints of spiritual power left by Golden Core early-stage cultivators.

Only then did he feel somewhat at ease with the spoils of war obtained from the senior Daoist Gao.

Next, Yu Qingtan took out the treasures like Moon Branch Magpie Hairpin, Crimson Abyss Sword, Xuan Chi Armor, Flying Spirit Sword, and Message Transmission Spirit Sword, infused them with his own spiritual power, branded them with his divine sense, truly making them his spiritual artifacts.

Nevertheless, the Crimson Abyss Sword and Xuan Chi Armor must remain hidden, but the standard-issue Flying Spirit Sword and Message Transmission Spirit Sword didn't have this concern.

To his delight, the Moon Branch Magpie Hairpin turned out to be a second-grade lower-grade spiritual artifact capable of both offense and defense—it could form protective shields and also launch itself to pierce the enemy.

Having infused the spiritual artifacts, Yu Qingtan took out the Soul Cleansing Technique Jade Slip gifted by Fu Nian.

After Foundation Establishment, his spirit was robust, and he estimated he could go days without sleep.

If not now, when?
