My Fairy Growth System-Chapter 404 - 403: A High Monk from the Western Regions Gives Buddha Beads
Yu Qingtan was dressed in an elegant pale blue long dress, the hem of which gently swayed with her steps, much like the willow branches trembling softly in the early spring breeze.
Exquisite cloud patterns were embroidered on the dress, faint and elusive, as if shrouding her entire person in a misty cloud.
Her long hair was lightly gathered with a simple jade hairpin, leaving a strand of blue-black hair to flutter in the wind, adding a touch of liveliness and elegance.
Although she had slightly reduced her appearance using the Reincarnation Mantra, her presence on the streets of Hanmo Immortal City was undoubtedly a beautiful scene.
Her beauty and temperament attracted the gazes of countless cultivators, who stopped to watch and whispered among themselves.
Some cultivators’ eyes shone with astonishment, seemingly shocked by her beauty; others showed admiration, overwhelmed by her temperament.
Yu Qingtan was indifferent to the responses of the cultivators around her, maintaining her composed pace as she weaved through the streets.
Her gaze swept over the shops on both sides of the street, pausing momentarily on some items that piqued her interest.
"Amitabha, esteemed lady, please halt!" Just as Yu Qingtan was strolling through the streets of Hanmo Immortal City, a deep and solemn Buddhist chant broke through the street’s noise.
She looked toward the sound and saw a monk draped in a yellow kasaya approaching her at a leisurely pace.
The man appeared to be in his thirties or forties, with a serene face and eyes deep with wisdom and compassion.
He was tall but not burly, instead radiating an elegant and otherworldly quality.
The monk clasped his hands together, bowed slightly to Yu Qingtan, and then spoke slowly, "Amitabha, I am Hui Ming, from the Western Regions. Esteemed lady, your temperament is extraordinary, and it seems you have a connection with Buddhism!"
Yu Qingtan was slightly taken aback; she had not expected to encounter a monk from the Western Regions in the Eastern Region. The outer realm was divided into eight domains including east, south, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest. Among them, Buddhism flourished in the Western Regions, where most practitioners were Buddhist, with countless temples, and the Buddha Sect occupied over eighty percent of the territory.
However, it was not surprising since the Eastern Region, as the most bustling area for immortal cultivation among the human race of the outer realm, had teleportation formations leading to the other seven domains.
Although she did not display her cultivation level, her aura naturally exuded that of a strong individual. Hence, although the cultivators on the street were amazed by her, none had approached her before.
This Hui Ming monk gave Yu Qingtan a slight sense of pressure; he must also be at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, a high monk who had attained enlightenment in the Western Regions.
"Master Hui Ming, you are kind, but this young lady does not wish to become a nun," Yu Qingtan replied, returning his courtesy. Although she had no prejudice against those from the Buddha Sect, she did not wish to join them.
Seeing this, Hui Ming monk smiled slightly and continued, "Esteemed lady, I have wandered everywhere, and this is the first time I’ve seen someone with such a root of wisdom. If you were to accompany me to the Western Regions to cultivate, you would surely realize the Dao and achieve immortality and Buddhahood!"
Yu Qingtan, upon hearing these words, couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised. Although she had some understanding of the Buddha Sect, she had never considered joining it.
She shook her head and continued to graciously refuse, "Thank you for your kindness, Master, but my heart is set on the Dao, and I have no interest in the Buddhist teachings. Please forgive me."
Upon hearing this, Monk Hui Ming didn’t show any signs of disappointment. Instead, while turning his Buddha Beads, he said even more gently, "I observe that the cultivator has profound accomplishments in Body Refinement, but I assume there has been slow progress lately. Our Buddha Sect has Vajra Butter, which aids in Body Refinement.
The cultivator’s body is immaculate, untouched by even the smallest dust or filth, suggesting that the Great Purification Technique has already reached a transformative stage. And this technique is the foundation of the Supreme Dao Technique of our Buddha Sect, the Great Universal Zen Light."
"The cultivator’s eyes are clear and carry a hint of azure, indicating the practice of a pupil technique, albeit not a particularly profound one. However, our Buddha Sect possesses the Purifying Buddha Eye Technique, which has infinite wonders."
"If the cultivator joins our Buddha Sect, all these can be directly obtained. What do you say?"
Master Hui Ming’s words truly struck a chord in Yu Qingtan’s heart.
Even with the assistance of the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool, her Demon Blood Refinement Technique was not keeping pace with her skyrocketing Spiritual Cultivation Level, and she urgently needed treasures to accelerate her Body Refinement speed, with the Buddha Sect’s Vajra Butter being one such desired treasure.

Unfortunately, the Wendao Sect’s treasury only had a small bottle, which was prohibitively expensive. The Hundred Treasures Pavilion might only have a little bit for sale once in several decades.
She had defeated so many enemies, but none of the spoils contained such valuable items. The main reason was that the monks in the Western Regions tightly guarded these treasures.
She had also heard of the Great Universal Zen Light, a terrifyingly powerful Origin Dao Technique.
Most Dao Techniques do not have specific grades, and their power when executed depends on the cultivator’s Cultivation Level. For example, Yu Qingtan’s Five Elements Extinction Divine Light was a Fourth Stage Dao Technique when she, being at the Nascent Soul Stage, executed it. When she reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, it would become a Fifth Stage Dao Technique.
However, some Dao Techniques are different; they require the power of the Origin to execute and often possess extraordinary power. Although Yu Qingtan frequently added the power of the Origin in using Dao Techniques, this was different from directly employing the Origin to execute Origin Dao Techniques, and the power of the two was incomparable.
For some reason, Origin Dao Techniques were extremely rare in the Outer Realm, and Yu Qingtan had not previously come into contact with an Origin Dao Technique. Yet, the Great Universal Zen Light was an Origin Dao Technique manifested through the power of the Buddha Dao Origin, renowned for its ability to purify all evil in the world, possessing infinite wonders.
While the Purifying Buddha Eye Technique was not an Origin Dao Technique, it was also an extremely rare pupil technique. Yu Qingtan’s Blue Clear Spiritual Pupil Technique had not reached the level of a Dao Technique, and it was beginning to lag behind her Cultivation Level.
Therefore, the words of Monk Hui Ming were truly tempting to Yu Qingtan. However, she really did not want to join the Buddha Sect. They say the waters of the Buddha Sect are also deep, and she knew too little to be casually persuaded to join.
Although Yu Qingtan was greatly tempted by the conditions Monk Hui Ming offered, she showed no sign of it on her face. She nodded slightly, pondering for a moment before slowly speaking, "Thank you, Master Hui Ming, for the high regard. However, my heart is set on the Dao, and I already have a mentor. I’m afraid I can’t fulfill your wish to join the Buddha Sect. Nevertheless, I will surely visit the Western Regions when I have the chance!"
As Monk Hui Ming heard this, a trace of regret flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure. He brought his hands together in prayer, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Amitabha, the poor monk understands the cultivator’s wishes. I have two items, which I wish to gift to the cultivator to cultivate a good connection. Should the cultivator visit any Buddha temple in the Western Regions in the future, presenting these Buddha Beads will suffice."
With these words, Monk Hui Ming took out a jade bottle and a string of Buddha Beads from his sleeve and handed them to Yu Qingtan.
"Thank you, Master Hui Ming!" Yu Qingtan accepted them directly. However, since they were on the street, she did not examine them closely before putting them away.
