I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation

Mei clan Fort.

Within the battlements, the cold glints of the arrows would flash from time to time, and a strict atmosphere filled the air.

The water of the moat outside was still black and heavy.

An item in the water used to prevent enemies from sneaking past. The kun cruised around, occasionally bringing about strange waves.

As the wind blew, the spiritual plants all over the castle wall reeked of blood.

On the top of the wall, runes flickered, and a dozen puppets were still patrolling.

The protective array had been reactivated, but there was no one in the Mei clan Fort.

The place where the Mei clan's old patriarch was in seclusion was filled with broken branches and leaves. It was a mess.

Many traps, curses, and rune arrows had been triggered, and traces of spell techniques could be seen everywhere.

The ground was full of potholes, and the courtyard walls carved with runes were also in ruins.

Flames, poison, ghosts, withering ... And other traces were scattered all over the place.

After the war, the place was in ruins.

The fake mountain had long since been razed to the ground. In the remaining secret chamber, the old family head, Mei Qian, was sitting on a futon. Ever since he had awakened, he had not left his original spot.

Its aura was still strong, but in its strength, there was a sense of decline that was about to die.

&Quot; cough, cough, cough, cough ... &Quot;

Huo Zhaojing spat out blood and knelt on one knee. He looked at the old master with shock, confusion, and regret.

Mei Zhen was expressionless as she said indifferently, " "When I was still in the inner sect of the Zhong gang sect, I was just like you. I didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"

"If I didn't offend someone I shouldn't have, leaving behind an old illness, I would have entered the core formation stage long ago."

&Quot; you're just a junior who has just entered the late-stage of the foundation building realm. You dare to challenge me? "

Hearing this, Huo Zhaojing took a pill to recover from his injuries and smiled. &Quot; "I didn't think that senior Mei would still have such strength even though his life is coming to an end. I've miscalculated ..."

"However, senior is already old and doesn't have much essence left. If you continue to attack, how many more hours can you live?"

"My current strength is indeed not as good as senior's."

"But the one who will be defeated in the end will definitely be senior!"

Although he said this, Huo Zhaojing did not have the slightest intention to continue.

Old master Mei's life was indeed coming to an end, but it was also because of this that the other party was in the most danger now!

If he really forced someone to a dead end, he might disregard everything and drag him down with him!

Thinking of this, Huo Zhaojing was secretly angry.

His original plan was to infiltrate the Mei Clan Castle and secretly slaughter the entire Mei clan.

Then, he would peel off the old master's skin and use it to disguise his identity to welcome the Zhong gang sect disciples who would walk into the trap!

However, he didn't expect the old patriarch of the Mei family to be so cunning. His cultivation level was already half a step to the core formation realm, but he had kept it a secret and always claimed that he was only in the late stage of the foundation building realm.

In a situation where the information was seriously unequal, Huo Zhaojing fell into this old thing's trap on the spot. He had not yet ambushed the heavy iron Fist sect disciples, but he had already injured himself!

With a gloomy expression, he transmitted a message to his junior brothers and sisters, " "Have you settled the rest of the Mei family?"

"According to senior brother's instructions, other than the one who came to welcome us just now, we've dealt with the rest."

Huo Zhaojing nodded and sneered.

The old patriarch of the Mei family was indeed powerful, but so what?

The other party's lifespan was limited, so he couldn't move easily.

Now that the rest of the Mei family had been dealt with, the Mei clan Fort could still be used to set up traps for them!

"Then we'll stick to the original plan." Huo Zhaojing said telepathically. Then, he stared at the old patriarch of the Mei family and retreated step by step.

Even after Huo Zhaojing had completely left his sight, the old Mei family head did not make a move.

His expression was indifferent, as if he was just a statue.

※※※

After a day and a night.

A group of carriages appeared outside the Mei clan Fort.

There were fewer members of the Mei family than when they had first set off. They carefully surrounded two boxes that seemed to have been sewn together.

Beside the carriage, a blood carriage was floating in the air, though no one was carrying it.

A picture of a hundred ghosts at night was engraved on the belt of the blood sedan, and dense mist hung down from the four corners like a bead.

There were faces on all eight sides of the palanquin, men, women, old, and young, all of them lifelike, with blood and tears in their eyes.

On the back of the wall, a venomous flood Dragon was nailed.

PEI Ling and his group crossed mountains and rivers before finally reaching their destination.

"Branch master, we're almost there." Jin sumian transmitted her voice to PEI Ling, who was in the palanquin, " Mei Castle is right in front. &Quot;

Hearing this, PEI Ling's mind moved and the curtain of the human skin palanquin moved without any wind. It rolled up and revealed the scene ahead.

It was a heavily-guarded fortress with many fortifications.

On the whole, it was similar to the Xuan and Mo castles they had seen along the way, but it was smaller in scale and more alert.

This was not surprising considering the Mei family's current situation.

PEI Ling nodded slightly. They had finally arrived. The netherworld wood was still alive, and he had to quickly hand it over to the Mei family.

&Quot; let's not waste time, " he ordered. &Quot; speed up! &Quot;

"Yes!" Jin sumian replied.

Soon, the convoy no longer cared about their speed and sped away.

Not long after, they arrived at the castle.

Seeing that no one appeared in the castle, PEI Ling said in a clear voice, " "PEI Ling of the Zhong gang sect's Jian sang branch is here to escort the three-headed Winged Wolf and the netherworld tree! Mei family, quickly inspect the goods!"

There was no movement in the castle.

After a while, the formation suddenly opened. At the same time, a group of Mei clan members appeared on the fortress wall.

The person in the lead had a thin appearance, and many people in luxurious clothes followed beside him. It was the head of the Mei clan and a group of elders. They smiled and looked down at the convoy.

When Mei keqiu saw the family head and the others, she quickly stepped forward and bowed. &Quot; &Quot; clan head, elders, Qiu Xing did not fail you. The three-headed pterolycus Wolf and the netherworld tree are both in the carriage. &Quot;

"Not bad, not bad." The head of the Mei family nodded slightly and said, " please enter the castle quickly. The castle has already calculated your arrival time and has prepared food and wine to welcome you! &Quot;

"Let's go in." PEI Ling ordered.

The mission this time was for the alchemy fire.

After transporting the three-headed pterolycus and the netherworld wood to the Mei clan, they still had to collect the pill fire from the Mei clan.

Therefore, there was no reason to hand it over outside the castle.

With a creaking sound, the fortress gate was slowly lowered by a chain as thick as a child's arm. It smashed heavily on the bank of the moat, lying across the river.

PEI Ling walked out of the blood palanquin and stood by the suspension bridge, urging the convoy to cross the river and enter the castle.

In the end, he brought Jin sumian and the other two along with him as he followed behind the carriage and entered the Mei Clan Castle.

As soon as they stood still in Weng city, the gate behind them was immediately lifted again. At the same time, the formation was closed.

Seeing the Mei family's group coming down from the castle wall, PEI Ling stepped forward to take over.

He had originally thought that the netherworld wood had been severely damaged and that the Mei clan would definitely make things difficult for them and refuse to hand over the alchemic fire. Who would have thought that these people would just take a casual look and accept it so readily?

Seeing this, PEI Ling secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Things were going more smoothly than he had imagined.

"Everyone, since you've already accepted the three-headed pterolycus and the netherworld wood, where's the lightning peachheart fire?" he asked.

The head of the Mei family said, " this is what the old head has agreed to. Naturally, we will not go back on our word. However, the lightning Peach core fire has been maintained in the ancestral hall for many years. If we take it out rashly, I'm afraid it will damage its spirituality. We can only refine it on the spot. &Quot;
