My Fairy Growth System

According to Cang Yi Sea Emperor, who had been negligent in his duties, the incident at Heavenly Corner was indeed a conspiracy orchestrated by the Demon Race and the Sea Clan. A supremely intelligent being, the Sea Emperor, emerged from the Sea Clan. The Sea Emperor was not only unrivaled in intelligence and strategy but also more powerful than most Eight Stage beings from both the Demon Race and the Sea Clan. This time, the Sea Emperor deduced the location of the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land—the Heavenly Corner, based on scattered clues, but could not find its exact entrance. However, the Sea Emperor set a trap with this information, deceiving not only the Human Race's Hundred Treasures Pavilion and Heavenly Strategy Pavilion but also moved an Eighth Stage Formation from another ancient secret realm to Heavenly Corner. There, he created a false Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land to weaken the Human Race's power. In the Lichuan Cultivation World, competition among different races was extremely fierce, involving not just the struggle for cultivation resources but also, it was said, a contest of fate and destiny. Legend had it that only the race with the strongest destiny could give birth to a True Immortal. For most of the time, the Human Race had been the strongest in terms of destiny in the Lichuan Cultivation World. Sometime earlier, the Taiyi Emperor Sovereign, the foremost among the Human Race, failed the Immortal Ascension Tribulation and fell, while the Tai Er Emperor Sovereign was backstabbed by his own sect members and died, which made the Sea Emperor sense an opportunity. However, the Human Race was powerful, so it was necessary to unite with the Demon Race and the Sea Clan, and even engage smaller races like the Insect Tribe. Soon after, the Demon Race and Sea Clan would launch their attack on the Human Race. At this moment, only two Seventh Stage and over twenty Sixth Stage beings were guarding Heavenly Corner, and the moved Eighth Stage Formation had already been almost completely destroyed in the previous battle. After understanding the situation, Yu Qingtan formulated an action plan in his mind, then used the Hongluan Secret Omen to deduce the outcome, which showed great misfortune. "Great misfortune, huh? The Sea Emperor, what of it? I, the fairy, shall snatch the chestnuts from the fire!" Yu Qingtan thought to herself. A few days later, Yu Qingtan disguised herself as Cang Yi Sea Emperor using the Reincarnation Mantra and approached the underwater cliff near Heavenly Corner. "Cang Yi lad, you're back in high spirits?" Lan Mu Sea Saint, a Seventh Stage being of the Lan Kun Clan guarding the place, saw the "Cang Yi Sea Emperor" returning and teased him. "Haha, Elder Lan Mu, just a small personal matter, not worth mentioning," Yu Qingtan replied easily in the guise of Cang Yi Sea Emperor, while tossing a jar of Fifth Stage Spiritual Wine to Lan Mu Sea Saint. "You, lad, know the score. Now that you're back, return to your post quickly," Lan Mu Sea Saint said with a laugh after receiving the Spiritual Wine. It was this little hobby of his that had previously made him turn a blind eye to Cang Yi Sea Emperor's dereliction of his duties. Over the next several days, Yu Qingtan appeared to be diligently patrolling the underwater cliffs of Heavenly Corner while secretly surveying the surroundings and searching for the entrance to the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land. Finally, when Yu Qingtan was on a solitary patrol of an ordinary-looking area, her map emitted a faint red glow. Yu Qingtan took out the map, and it began to disintegrate, turning into a ball of red light in a matter of moments, then shooting towards the stone wall of the cliff. On the stone wall that had seemed indistinguishable from the others around it, red runes appeared, Spiritual Power flowed, and a space passage slowly took shape. "Hahaha, the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land is indeed here; I have not miscalculated!" At that moment, a loud voice accompanied by an immensely terrifying pressure came from above. Yu Qingtan's expression changed. An Emperor Level strength of the Eighth Stage was approaching. Fortunately, the space passage had already formed, and without hesitation, Yu Qingtan dashed into it. The next instant, a figure in a black robe appeared where Yu Qingtan had just been, trying to follow her through the passage but failed. "Only beings of the seventh stage are allowed to enter, is that it?" This figure was an avatar of the Sea Emperor, who upon careful observation, discovered that it was a minor eighth-stage teleportation formation. He couldn't enter, nor could he destroy it for the time being. "However, this is both an entrance and an exit, you have to come out eventually!" The Sea Emperor's avatar sneered, ready to wait to ambush. At the same time, he sent out a series of communicative messages. Soon, several avatars of the Sea Emperors, along with a dozen elite seventh-stage members of the Sea Clan, arrived. "Enter. If you take down that impostor posing as Cang Yi Sea Emperor or obtain the treasures of the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land, there will be generous rewards for you all!" The Sea Emperor's avatar said to the group of more than a dozen seventh-stage Sea Clan members, including Lan Mu Sea Saint. "Should we not inform the Demon Race?" asked an avatar of the Canglong Sea Emperor, given that the Netherworld Phoenix Clan was originally under the Demon Race. "Of course, there's no need," thought the Sea Emperor's avatar silently, finding their honesty almost naive. No wonder you couldn't outwit the cunning Human Race in the past. Following the Sea Emperor's avatar's order, the dozen or so seventh-stage Sea Clan powerhouses didn't hesitate. They transformed into streaks of light, rushing through the just-revealed spatial passage. As Yu Qingtan passed through that spatial channel, her vision blurred momentarily, and the surroundings instantly changed. In the boundless void, a colossal tree over ten thousand feet tall stood proudly with a trunk so thick it would take a hundred people to encircle it. It had luxuriant branches and leaves, though overall, it appeared somewhat grey. "An eighth-stage spiritual plant, the Void Parasol Tree!" Yu Qingtan, now standing on a giant leaf, muttered in awe at the sight of the towering tree. "Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree, it seems this is indeed the Netherworld Phoenix Clan's territory. Their nest should be near the top of the tree crown." The Void Parasol Tree, surrounded by the power of Space Law, caused interference with Yu Qingtan's Divine Sense, preventing her from observing the high reaches. She could only sense the dangerous spatial undercurrents and spatial rifts, hidden or apparent, in the surrounding area. Having imprinted the Space Law and aided by the Hongluan Secret Omen, Yu Qingtan was confident she could avoid most dangers. She carefully chose her path and leaped onto a higher leaf. A few breaths later, Yu Qingtan detected that more than a dozen figures had appeared below, the seventh-stage Sea Clan members who had followed her in. Yu Qingtan sneered and continued her climb. Although the Sea Clan were numerous, she was confident in her invincibility within her stage. Nevertheless, to minimize trouble, Yu Qingtan used her understanding of the Space Law and the optimal path deduced by the Hongluan Secret Omen to move through the branches and leaves of the Void Parasol Tree. She also quietly arranged spatial distortion formations and illusion arrays along the way. These formations, from the Myriad Array Grand Book, were only sixth-stage arrays, but when interwoven with the innate Space Law of the Void Parasol Tree, even seventh-stage powerhouses could lose their way or even fall into spatial undercurrents or rifts if they were not careful. "Hmm, let them taste the danger at every turn," Yu Qingtan thought darkly, hastening her ascent. As time went on, the Sea Clan powerhouses below suffered greatly from the traps Yu Qingtan had left behind, and their numbers began to dwindle. Still, the Sea Emperor's orders and the lure of the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land's treasures compelled them to press on. Meanwhile, Yu Qingtan had nearly reached the crown of the Void Parasol Tree. Here, the fluctuations of the Space Law were more intense, but at the same time, an ancient and mysterious aura grew stronger. In the distance above, Yu Qingtan glimpsed a massive bird's nest.
