I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation

In the sub formation, Pei Ling sat quietly for a while and listened carefully. He saw that the surroundings were silent, and Chen Huan and the others seemed to have left.

His gaze flashed as he kept the Life-Extinguishing Blade. He chose a direction and rushed into the forest.

This forest was not much different from the forests he had passed on his way here. It was just strangely quiet, without any sounds of insects or birds, only the rustling of leaves as he stepped on the grass.

Pei Ling rushed forward for a moment before his eyes suddenly brightened!

He quickened his pace, but after he walked out, he returned to the empty land!

Subsequently, no matter how hard he tried, and no matter how he thought of ways to find any directions. Not long after he entered the forest, he would walk back to the same space. The markings that he used various methods would also return to normal, leaving no traces.

“I guess I can’t get out. Though this formation doesn’t do any harm temporarily.”

“I’ll first cultivate the [Blood Spiraling Escape Technique]. Then, I’ll be able to get Miss Wu Liu to come out and check on my progress!”

“If Wu Liu isn’t here, I’ll use my last trick…”

Thinking of this, Pei Ling sat down cross-legged and thought to himself, “System, I want to cultivate.”

With his current cultivation, even if he did not get trapped in the formation, he would fight Zhang Zhongqin to a draw at best.

Besides Zhang Zhongqin, there were four others!

Other than Chen Mei, the weakest of the team, Huang Xian and Xiao Tasha were all at the fifth stage of Qi Refinement. They were enough to control the situation, not to mention that Chen Huan was at the sixth stage of Qi Refinement.

He had zero chance of winning in a head-on battle.

He could only wait for an opportunity to strike.

Now that Chen Huan and the others had left, for now, he could act according to his original plan.

He had to plan for the worst too. If all his plans failed, he would have more chances of survival if he could master a new technique now.

“Ding Dong! The Smart Cultivation System is at your service!”

Pei Ling immediately said, “Choose the [Blood Spiraling Escape Technique], [Temporary Cultivation—Smart Duration], and [One-Click Management]!”

The familiar feeling of losing control of his body came. Pei Ling could only feel the blood and Qi in his body circulating in an entirely new way. It went from slow to fast, and he faintly heard sounds like a rushing river from his body. His steps became faster and faster, and a faint blood shadow gradually formed behind him!

Pei Ling was shocked. His movement was much faster than before.

And he had only just begun his cultivation of the technique.

It was a pity that Spiraling Mountain City had City Lord Duanmu, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, guarding it. Otherwise, after Wu Liu left, he would have found a corner to cultivate this escape technique overnight. Chen Huan would not have been able to save Chen Mei from him moments ago!

Just as he thought about it, his body suddenly stopped.

A thought flashed through Pei Ling’s mind. Indeed, a familiar notification sounded. “Ding Dong! Detected that blood feed is needed to continue practicing the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique. Detected that there is a lack of blood feed…”

“Blood feed?” Pei Ling chuckled in his heart. He was not as frightened as in the previous few incidents as he was penniless now.

He had also confirmed earlier that apart from him, there was nothing else in this formation.

If you want blood feed, find it yourself!

Just as he thought about it, the system indeed sounded again. “Ding Dong. The system will give you several high-grade blood feeds for free…”

Immediately, Pei Ling’s body moved.

Just like the previous few times, he traveled incredibly fast at this moment.

It was even faster than when he first cultivated the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique!

He pulled out the Life-Extinguishing Blade in front of him and rushed into the forest without hesitation. After a series of turns that Pei Ling could not see clearly, he suddenly slammed into the trunk of a large tree!

“System?!” Pei Ling was about to scold the system when he realized that he felt no pain. Instead, his vision blurred while he suddenly felt released from a form of dead silence as he heard the rushing waters and birds chirping—he came out?

Pei Ling was first startled before he was overjoyed. He said sincerely, “System, I’ll give you a four-star rating later!”

With the lesson from the incident with Fairy Li, he did not dare to give it a five-star rating for the time being.

After all, who knew what kind of ‘cashback’ this retarded system would give him?

However, accounting for the system’s contribution this time, a four-star rating should be enough.

The system ignored him, remaining indifferent. It operated his body to run through the forest. Pei Ling observed for a while and saw that the system was clearly heading in a particular direction. Although he did not know what was there, it was always better than staying in the array.

Ever since the system got activated, this was the first time he had felt relieved to receive a “gift” from the system.

However, this relief disappeared when his body traversed mountains and rivers, plucked vines and drilled holes… and finally entered an underground lair!

“I knew it…” Pei Ling looked at the spider webs that appeared from time to time, as well as the spider eggs that piled up in front of him. He almost felt a bucket of ice water pour down his head. He immediately thought of the Man-Faced Spider City Lord Duanmu had mentioned.

Pei Ling sighed and watched numbly as the system stepped forward and stabbed the eggs of the little spiders that were still in the middle of incubation to death. Then, he used the Blood Spiral Escape Art to extract blood from all of them.

“Ding-dong!” The system reminded him. “The high-grade blood feed has been gifted to you! The system will continue to cultivate for you…”

As the unhatched little spiders turned to ashes, increasing power became absorbed into Pei Ling’s body. He felt a powerful spiritual strength rush from his tailbone to the back of his head. Immediately, Pei Ling’s entire body’s vitality seemed ignited!

The roar of the surging waves sounded in his body!

The next moment, his body felt like it exploded. A mist of blood spurted out from his pores as if a blood-colored cloak was covering his entire body. He leaped out and had already shifted around the lair several times in the blink of an eye. The blood shadow behind him became dense as if it materialized.

At first glance, it was as if several people were running back and forth. Pei Ling’s body seemed illusory, making it difficult to tell whether they were real or fake!

Pei Ling silently praised the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique in his heart.

If only he had cultivated this escape technique earlier, Chen Huan and the others would be dreaming if they thought they could capture him.

“Fairy Li is a good…” Pei Ling was about to praise Fairy Li. However, thinking of his experiences thus far, he quickly suppressed the thought.

The disciples of the Deep Sea Sect were too demonic. It was only the outer sect. When he thought of how the inner sect disciples and even core disciples had slaughtered their way up the ranks in such environments, he did not dare to give Fairy Li a “good person’s card” right now.

Who knows what Fairy Li is thinking…

In any case, it seemed like she had given him a chance to live up to this point.

In that case… I’ll leave it at that.

Pei Ling composed himself and focused on the circulation of the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique.

After an unknown period, his body suddenly stopped. At the same time, the system gave a notification. “Ding Dong! This cultivation session has ended. Thank you for using the smart cultivation system. You have ascended without a worry! I’ll look forward to you sharing the cultivation experience. If you are satisfied, please give me a five-star rating!”

Pei Ling did not say a word. He did not even check the situation in the lair as he picked up the Life-Extinguishing Blade and ran!

He gave the system a one-star rating as he ran!

Trash!

You are only worthy of a one-star negative rating for the rest of your life!

Did you hear that, trash?!

You will only be worthy of a one-star rating for life!!
