I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation

Who is it!

Zheng Jingshan?!

No, it couldn’t be him.

He’s a domineering person. If he had caught up, he would have appeared and attacked directly by now, not hiding in the dark.

As for the others… The rest of the Pei family are probably focused on getting the 50 Bone Tempering Pills promised by Zheng Jingshan and not looking for me immediately.

At first, Pei Ling wondered if he was hallucinating from being too nervous. But soon, his expression changed.

He sensed that the eyes staring at him were increasing.

The initially faint glances rapidly turned into gazes that were focused on him from all directions.

This feeling…

Pei Ling immediately thought of the screen in Zheng Jingshan’s room.

His heart sank as he looked around alertly, only to find nothing.

However, that feeling of being watched became more and more obvious.

He could even feel that he was surrounded as if something was encroaching gradually from all directions.

Pei Ling’s expression was ashen. His current cultivation was too low, and he did not have enough experience on how to deal with this situation.

After thinking quickly, he decided to continue walking.

After all, going back was a dead end.

If it was just this feeling of being watched, he could just pretend that nothing had happened.

However, as Pei Ling continued running for a moment, he suddenly felt cold.

It was something that had never happened since he had opened up his Qi and stepped onto the path of cultivation. Especially when he was still running at full speed, how could he feel cold when his body should be heated up?

Pei Ling knew that the situation was grave, but he was helpless.

Soon, a cold feeling spread through his body. He felt as if he had fallen into an icehouse, and even his consciousness felt heavy.

“Where’s the problem?” Pei Ling knew that he could not let this go on. He stopped and thought about the entire process today. Something must be wrong with the screen!

However, not mentioning Zheng Jingshan had set restrictions for it. Pei Ling had been controlled by the system last night and cultivated openly in front of the screen for a long time. From his return to the courtyard to the main hall… There had been no abnormalities until now.

Why now of all times?

“System, I want to cultivate!” Sensing that his train of thought was becoming slower and slower, the sense of danger in Pei Ling’s heart soared. He suddenly had an idea and called out in a deep voice, “Select the Bone Forging Art! Smart duration! One-click management!”

“Ding-dong! The Smart Cultivation System is at your service!” The system’s mechanical voice could be that pleasant to listen to at a time like this.

The moment the system took over his body, Pei Ling began to relax.

Coldness, dullness, and other symptoms rapidly disappeared.

He could not help but heave a sigh of relief. “No wonder!”

He was cultivating in front of the screen for a long time last night. The reason why he did not receive any harm other than the watchful eyes was not that the screen did not attack him at the time, it was because he was cultivating.

No, perhaps it was because his body was being operated by the system.

No matter what, at least he was safe now.

A familiar pain spread throughout his body. While Pei Ling felt relieved, he also hoped he could leave this place as soon as possible.

It was a Demonic Sect, after all, where any disciple’s item could be as sinister.

After working hard to slack off for so many years, he almost died here!

As he cultivated the Bone Forging Art, Pei Ling felt as if his entire body had come alive again. Even the sound of his breaking bones was especially pleasing to hear.

But…

Not long after, the system suddenly let out a “Ding Dong” sound and said mechanically, “Host has suffered a huge loss of blood energy. Continuing to cultivate the Bone Forging Art will result in irreversible damage…”

“Ding-dong! You are lacking Qi and Blood Pills. The system will give you three Qi and Blood Pills for free!”

??

Pei Ling: “Wait wait wait…”

Before he could finish his thought, the system had already controlled his body to stop cultivating. He suddenly stood up, spun his heel, and charged straight for Yuanmu Mountain!

…

Yuanlao Mountain, in a deep underground cave.

“Cough cough cough…” With a series of heart-wrenching coughs, a man slumped against the wall spat out a mouthful of black blood. Immediately after, his already weak aura withered again.

He breathed heavily a few times as if to muster some strength. Then, he opened a jade bottle with trembling hands and brought the bottle to his lips with difficulty.

However, before he could pour out the pills into his mouth, his organs spasmed. The man could not control himself and let out another round of coughing again. As a result, the jade bottle fell to the ground.

When he finally calmed down and was about to reach for the bottle, he suddenly froze and looked up at the dark pathway.

Before long, a rat flew by.

The man looked vigilant as he calmly took out a black pellet.

After a while, the surroundings remained quiet. He gradually relaxed and stuffed the pellet back into his sleeve, eyes revealing extreme resentment. “Deep Sea Sect… Heh heh, I didn’t expect that I, Wu Tingxi, would actually be reduced to such a state. Even a mere rat can scare me like a frightened bird!”

He picked up the jade bottle with some difficulty, but he did not consume it immediately. Instead, he rubbed the pellet in his sleeve, his eyes flashing with a sharp glint. He whispered to himself, “If Master had succeeded in switching the cultivation technique back then, how could I, a personal disciple, end up like this? It’s a pity that I entered the sect too late with limited strength. This is probably the end of the road… or…”

Wu Tingxi’s expression changed irregularly. He sighed and raised the jade bottle. Just as the pills in the bottle were about to slide down, a figure rushed out from the pathway.

“Holy shit!” Pei Ling looked at the weak man in front of him with his mouth agape. “Isn’t this the traitor they’re looking for?”

The system did not respond. It simply snatched the jade bottle from Wu Tingxi’s hand. Immediately, it poured out three Qi and Blood Pills, stuffed them all into the mouth, and threw the bottle to one side.

Immediately after, the same thing happened as the previous night: The system did not seem to have the intention of leaving as soon as possible as it controlled Pei Ling’s body to walk to an empty space not far away and sit cross-legged. “Ding Dong! Qi and Blood Pill have been gifted. The system will continue to cultivate for you…”

“…”

Seriously? You’re still doing this?

There was no one in Zheng Jingshan’s room the last time, while the latest victim was right in front of him this time, and he stared at Pei Ling with his eyes wide open!

Wu Tingxi was shocked at first.

After all, he was in a dangerous situation and was extremely vigilant even if a rat passed by. The speed of this person that just arrived was so quick that he did not have time to react. As a result, after his pills were snatched, his first thought was fear and surprise, not anger.

But…

As the system began cultivating, Wu Tingxi discovered that the youth in front of him was only a young cultivator at the third level of the Qi Refinement Stage.

After observing for a moment and confirming that he was not mistaken, Wu Tingxi was so mad that he almost died on the spot. His intense emotions affected his injuries again, and he coughed even more violently for a while. Wu Tingxi took a good look at Pei Ling and did not attack immediately. Instead, he coughed as he crawled towards the jade bottle at the side with growing difficulty.

“System! Can we finish him first before cultivating?

“Kill him first, quick!

“I’ll give you a five-star rating after ending him!”

“It’s fine if you don’t kill him. If we escape now, you will get my five-star rating too!”

Pei Ling felt like vomited blood. “You f*cking retard! Stop cultivating!”

The system remained oblivious as it focused on managing the cultivation.

Therefore, Pei Ling could only watch helplessly as Wu Tingxi finally crawled to the jade bottle after taking three breaks. He trembled as he opened the bottle stopper and swallowed the remaining Qi and Blood Pills!

After that, Wu Tingxi struggled to sit up. After casting a vicious glance at Pei Ling, he began to cultivate as well.

Pei Ling’s heart dipped. He could tell that Wu Tingxi was severely injured. Rather than saying that he was cultivating, it was better to say that he was dissolving the medicine to suppress his injuries temporarily.

As for what he would do after suppressing his injuries, it should be obvious!

A while later, before the system cultivation ended, Wu Tingxi was the first to open his eyes. He gave Pei Ling a sinister smile before he picked up a stone and threw it at him.

“Um, system?”

Bang!

The next moment, a bump appeared on his head.

At the same time, the system sounded, “Ding Dong! An external attack has been detected. This cultivation session is over. Thank you for using the smart cultivation system. You have ascended without any worries with a single click! I look forward to you sharing the cultivation evaluation. If you are satisfied, please give me a five-star rating!”

Yes, the system fled.

You little!!!

“Kid, I wonder if you’re pretending to be or if you’re really stupid.” After a test, Wu Tingxi sighed in relief and sneered. “Anyways, since we’re fated to meet, I’ll send you on your way today!”

Before he finished his sentence, a green light flashed on his fingertip suddenly!
