My Fairy Growth System

"Kaiyang Saint Venerable, do not act rashly." Jiang Lai Saint Venerable said with a heavy voice, his gaze profound as he looked towards the entrance of the Nether Illusion Domain, where the Formation's light circulated, revealing a power not to be underestimated, "Even if the Nether Emperor Sovereign is only at the Body Integration Realm, his heritage and methods are by no means something we can easily fathom. Moreover, his ability to slumber here for millions of years is evidence of his masterly tactics and far-reaching arrangements."

"Moreover," the mysterious Saint Venerable from the Heavenly Strategy Pavilion took over, his tone carrying a bit of solemnity, "since the Nether Emperor Sovereign was once the foremost figure in the Lichuan Cultivation World, there may still be more complex secrets hidden behind him. Acting rashly would likely be unwise."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a chill and nodded in agreement. Taiwu Saint Venerable even sighed, "That being said, we can only stand down for the time being, and gather Immortal Crystals individually before making any plans."

Subsequently, ten Body Integration Stage Cultivators swiftly used long-distance communication methods to report the situation inside the Nether Illusion Domain and the Nether Emperor Sovereign's demands in detail. The major powers were all shocked upon learning the news, and the Longevity Emperor Sovereign from the Longevity Imperial Palace even made a personal visit to the entrance of the Nether Illusion Domain.

"This is the Eighth Stage Ten Directions Nether Illusion Slaying Great Array, I cannot break through it. The Nether Emperor Sovereign's methods are extraordinary, and it is not wise to easily become his enemy!" pronounced the Longevity Emperor Sovereign before he departed enigmatically.

Several days later, the major powers sent envoys with a large amount of Immortal Crystals to the entrance of the Nether Illusion Domain. Despite the high price set by the Nether Emperor Sovereign, all those granted entry were elite disciples of their respective powers, which they were reluctant to give up easily.

Inside the Nether Illusion Domain, after sending out ten Divine Transformation Cultivators, the Nether Emperor Sovereign's gaze turned towards Yu Qingtan.

"You, come with me!" The Nether Emperor Sovereign's emotionless voice reached Yu Qingtan's ears, then a spatial passage appeared behind him, into which he stepped.

Yu Qingtan's heart clenched, but she still slowly walked towards that spatial passage.

"Elder Qing Shuang, you must not go!" Sage Emperor Yinxian raised his hand, attempting to stop Yu Qingtan, while Cui Shuji and other Divine Transformation Cultivators looked toward Yu Qingtan with concern.

"It is of no concern, how can I refuse when called upon by the Emperor Sovereign!"

Yu Qingtan's steps were determined and composed, knowing that even though she was no match for the Nether Emperor Sovereign, he probably couldn't kill her either, as she had confidence in the Innate Divine Ability, Shadow Clone, given by her System father and System.

Passing through that spatial passage, Yu Qingtan arrived at a side hall. The spatial passage closed, and the Nether Emperor Sovereign stood ahead of her, his back to her and hands behind his back.

"Junior Qing Shuang from the Longevity Imperial Palace pays respects to the Emperor Sovereign. I do not know why I have been summoned alone by the Emperor Sovereign?" Yu Qingtan bowed and asked.

"You bear the aura of the Five Elements Demon Suppression Sword. It seems you have acquired the Five Elements Demon Suppression Sword. My Netherworld Soul Envoy must have perished at your hand, right? Hand over the Five Elements Demon Suppression Sword and become one of my envoys, and I will spare your life!"

The Nether Emperor Sovereign's voice was low and powerful, each word seemed to carry an irresistible authority, echoing throughout the side hall.

"What Five Elements Demon Suppression Sword? I have never heard of it, let alone acquired it. Please discern the truth, Your Honour!" Yu Qingtan brazenly lied, as the Five Elements Demon Suppression Sword was currently with her Outer Realm clone.

Upon hearing this, a cold smile curled at the corner of the Nether Emperor Sovereign's mouth. That smile contained disdain for Yu Qingtan's lie as well as anger for her daring to deceive him. "Hmph, do you think I would easily believe your sophistry?"

With those words, the Nether Emperor Sovereign suddenly turned around, and a majestic pressure burst forth from within him, like a collapsing mountain or an overturning wave, instantly compressing the space in the side hall to its limit, making Yu Qingtan feel as if the weight of Mount Tai was pressing down on her, as if she would be crushed into a sheet of paper in the next moment.

In the face of this perilous situation, Yu Qingtan pushed the power of her Law Manifestation True Body to its utmost limit. Her body was covered with the Five Elements Protective Barrier, and she employed every one of the nine powers of the Principles—Five Elements, Time, Space, Soul, Strength—managing to hold against the Nether Emperor Sovereign's pressure.

"Imprinted with nine Principles, Five Elements Primordial Immortal Body, good, good, I didn't expect you to be such a prodigy. The Five Elements Taoist's Five Elements Demon Suppression Sword does indeed suit you well. Qing Shuang, is it? I hereby formally invite you to become my first Nether Envoy. Would you be willing?"

As the voice of the Nether Emperor Sovereign fell, the atmosphere in the side hall suddenly became subtle and tense. Yu Qingtan could feel that the oppressive force had not lessened, but within it there now seemed to be a hint of appreciation and expectation.

"Junior is from the Longevity Imperial Palace, I'm afraid it would not be convenient to change allegiances," Yu Qingtan said evenly.

"A force established by Longevity Immortal Venerable, eh! It's not bad, but the hope of cultivating you into the next Immortal Venerable is slim. I have awakened this time and must achieve True Immortality; by choosing to follow me, your chances of becoming an immortal will at least reach thirty percent," the Nether Emperor Sovereign continued to coax persuasively.

"I am flattered by senior's wrongful affection, but I truly do not wish to betray the Longevity Imperial Palace. I hope senior will understand!" Yu Qingtan used the Hongluan Secret Omen to divine the future in her heart. If she agreed to the Nether Emperor Sovereign's invitation, it would be extremely ominous; if she refused, it would be slightly less so. Therefore, she continued to refuse.

"Hmph, he who refuses the toast is obliged to drink a forfeit," the Nether Emperor Sovereign's face grew cold, and an ancient Bronze Ancient Mirror appeared above his head.

The ancient mirror blazed with light, and the entire side hall seemed to be enveloped in an ancient and mysterious power. On the surface of the mirror, ghostly light flowed, reflecting thousands of illusions, each containing a heart-palpitating power, as if it could see through hearts and control souls.

"My Lifebound Immortal Artifact, the Netherworld Illusion Mirror, is a Supreme Immortal Artifact. It can reflect all things and imprint Soul Constraints. From now on, your life and death will be at the whim of my thoughts," the voice of the Nether Emperor Sovereign boomed, low and ruthless.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, although Yu Qingtan's heart was alarmed, she was not confused. She quickly mobilized all the power within her body. The Five Elements Protective Barrier shined brightly, and the nine Powers of Laws intertwined into an impregnable defensive network, wrapping her tightly within it.

However, having the strength of the Body Integration Realm, the Nether Emperor Sovereign unleashed his Lifebound Immortal Artifact with power far beyond her imagination. All her defenses were of no effect, and an exceedingly mystical soul constraint was easily imprinted upon her Sea of Consciousness.

Deep within Yu Qingtan's Sea of Consciousness, the "Fairy Cultivation System" was about to intervene and eliminate this foreign intrusion encroaching its territory. However, Yu Qingtan communicated with it, urging it to refrain from acting for the moment, and sure enough, the system ceased its attack.

At that moment, Yu Qingtan felt a splitting headache as if countless voices were whispering in her ears, enticing, intimidating, threatening... A tide of negative emotions surged forward, trying to break her will.

"Ah~" Yu Qingtan couldn't help but cry out in pain as she clutched her head.

"Hmph, are you now willing to become my first Nether Envoy?" the Nether Emperor Sovereign snorted coldly.

"Willing... willing... I am willing!"
