I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation - Chapter 64 - I’ll Give You An Opportunity!

As Zheng Jingshan’s heart was in turmoil, he suddenly smelled a strange smell.

He was stunned, but he saw that Pei Ling seemed to be in an unnatural daze for a moment. Then he retracted his hands that were forming hand seals to refine the pills. He stood up straight and explained with an embarrassed expression, “I was busy just now. My spiritual power was insufficient, so…”

“It’s fine.” Zheng Jingshan glanced at the charcoal at the bottom of the furnace and did not care at all.

After all, that batch of superior-grade Bone Tempering Pills had already fully demonstrated Pei Ling’s talent in alchemy.

It was beyond shocking!

At this moment, even if he destroyed a cauldron of pills, so what?

He pondered for a moment and said, “Alright, I already know that your talent in alchemy is indeed very outstanding.” Pei Ling was delighted. He was about to open his mouth to discuss sales, profits, dividends, and so on when he heard Zheng Jingshan say, “How about this? You go back now and start cultivating diligently from now on. Try to reach the fifth-stage Qi Refinement realm as soon as possible. At that time, I’ll give you an opportunity!”

Opportunity? If this was before he entered the sect, Pei Ling would have been very interested. But now, the fine of more than 70,000 inferior-grade spirit stones was like a sharp sword hanging from the ceiling. How could he care about anything else?

After all, the sect’s laws were heartless. What good opportunity? Unless he could ascend on the spot or become invincible, if he did not produce spirit stones in three months, he would be torn apart by the sect to pay his debts!

At the thought of this, Pei Ling was about to find an excuse to decline when Zheng Jingshan continued, “This opportunity is hard to come by. Speaking of which, it depends on your luck. So you must cultivate diligently. If you miss the opportunity, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life.

But if you succeed, then you can forget about the fine for killing Li Siguang and the other two, and your status in the sect will also be very different.”

Forget about the fine?

Pei Ling’s eyes lit up when he heard this and he immediately probed, “May I ask Senior Brother, the opportunity you’re talking about is…”

“You’ll know when the time comes.” Zheng Jingshan smiled confidently. “Don’t think too much now. Go back and increase your cultivation level. If your cultivation level is not high, no matter how good the opportunity is, it will have nothing to do with you.”

Pei Ling was about to ask more when he saw Zheng Jingshan’s expression darken. He said solemnly, “Just do as I say. Do you think I will harm you?”

“Don’t worry, Senior Brother.” Seeing this, Pei Ling did not dare to say more. He quickly said, “When I go back, I’ll definitely start cultivating immediately. I won’t disappoint you!”

After a moment, as he watched Pei Ling turn around and leave, Zheng Jingshan thought to himself, Although this Junior Brother Pei is exceptionally talented in alchemy, judging from the speed at which he progressed from the second level of Qi Refinement to the fourth level of Qi Refinement, his cultivation talent is not bad. Looking at his strong aura now, he is not far from the fifth level of Qi Refinement…

Half a month, at most a month, there is hope for a breakthrough.

This duration is still within the range of his mediation.

If it is any later, it can only be said that Pei Ling is lacking in talent and luck.

However, he hoped that this Junior Brother Pei would not disappoint him or his senior sister.

After Pei Ling returned to the outer sect, he began to cultivate non-stop. After all, although this Underworld sect was not something decent, with Zheng Jingshan’s identity and strength, if he wanted to harm him, there was no need to feign civility.

In particular, he had just taken the initiative to showcase his amazing alchemy talent. Zheng Jingshan had no reason to harm him at this time.

Even if there was, this would at most delay his repayment of the fine.

However, after careful calculation, Pei Ling realized that he was not far from the fifth-stage Qi Refinement realm. This would not delay him for long.

As expected, after taking the drugs twice, everything was going smoothly. Pei Ling clenched his fists gently and felt the obvious strength in his body. After a brief moment of joy, he stepped onto the Corpse Cloud that led to Kulan Residence.

When Zheng Jingshan saw him coming, he was quite unhappy at first. “Didn’t I tell you to cultivate well…”

Before he could finish speaking, his gaze froze. He could not help but be shocked to find that Pei Ling had already reached the fifth level of Qi Refinement!

Unparalleled alchemy talent, amazing cultivation talent… This Pei Ling is actually so outstanding! Zheng Jingshan cursed the Pei family for being a bastard in his heart. Such a talented person, the son that many cultivation families dream of, is left to fend for himself just because he comes from a branch family.

If not for Senior Sister’s discerning eyes, wouldn’t this Pei Ling’s astounding talent be buried?

As expected, a small family was a small family, It was reasonable that he could not develop.

If he did not nurture Pei Ling but scrimped and nurtured to nurture that good-for-nothing Pei Hongnian, what future could he have?

He composed himself and pretended to be calm. “Forget it. It seems that you’ve been cultivating diligently these past two days.”

He conjured a seal and muttered a few words to summon his subordinates.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zheng Jingshan said to Pei Ling, “Do you know why I wanted you to advance to the fifth level of Qi Refinement?”

“Please advise, Senior Brother,” Pei Ling said respectfully.

Zheng Jingshan said, “This is because the bones tempered by the Bone Forging Art are divided into iron bones, essence bones, and jade bones. And iron bones are divided into inferior-grade iron bones, middle-grade iron bones, superior-grade iron bones, and rare supreme-grade iron bones. The same goes for essence bones and jade bones.

The first to third levels of Qi Refinement are called iron bones. The fourth to sixth levels of Qi Refinement are called essence bones. The seventh to ninth levels of Qi Refinement are called jade bones.

You’ve been to the Miscellaneous Committee. You should know that many missions are set at the sixth level of Qi Refinement.

This is because those who are at the sixth-stage Qi Refinement realm have attained phenomenal success in their essence bones, or even jade bones for those who are exceptionally talented. There is an obvious leap in ability from the fifth-stage Qi Refinement realm.

Although the Cold Marrow Fire is only one level higher than the Nine Nether Fire, it is not easy to deal with.

You were only at the fourth-stage Qi Refinement realm previously. I’m afraid you can’t subdue it at all. Even now, at the fifth-stage Qi Refinement realm, there’s a considerable risk…”

When Pei Ling heard this, he could not help being stunned. Cold Marrow Fire? Risk?

Didn’t you say that it is a rare opportunity?? Didn’t you say that a fine is nothing??

He quickly said, “Senior Brother, what exactly is this Cold Marrow Fire? Is it very valuable? And since there’s a risk, why don’t we forget about it this time? Let’s go again when I’m more powerful and more confident.” “No!” Zheng Jingshan refused flatly. “Other than being an eighth-grade immortal fire and being quite useful to alchemists, that Cold Marrow Fire is also useful for Purification. There are many people setting their eyes on it. I only managed to obtain it with the help of Senior Sister’s name. So I can’t wait! Otherwise, who knows who will intercept it?”

Zheng Jingshan looked at him suspiciously. “Junior Brother Pei, I remember that before you entered the sect, you dared to steal my Bone Tempering Pills to cultivate. To be honest, I was very impressed with your boldness to pursue the Great Dao with no fear of death. But you’ve only been in the sect for a few days, so why have you become so timid and cautious?”

Not afraid of death my a*s!

The system is retarded.

Do I look like a brainless person?

“Senior Brother, I’m not afraid.” In front of Zheng Jingshan, Pei Ling said insincerely, “I’m just worried that I’m weak and will let down your nurturing. At that time, won’t you have worked for nothing?”

Zheng Jingshan stared at him for a moment and saw that his junior brother was sitting upright and still. His eyes were bright and unyielding. Only then did Zheng Jingshan feel relieved. He said earnestly, “Junior Brother Pei, you have to know that in the struggle for the Great Dao, if you don’t advance, you will retreat! Especially for a cultivator like you who comes from a humble background. One step behind, many steps behind. A hundred years later, when you look back, it’s too late for regrets, but you no longer have a chance.

With the vastness of the Holy Sect and the great number of disciples, although there are few people with a talent like yours, it’s definitely not just a handful of them either. If you don’t work hard to advance yourself and if you make the slightest mistake, you will definitely disappear from the masses!

At that time, you will be like countless seniors, striving hard for a hundred years and eventually turning into dust.”

Pei Ling’s expression changed slightly as he lowered his head to listen. “Yes, what Senior Brother said is enlightening. Junior Brother will definitely remember it!”

Although he said that, he did not want to die. There was no need to talk about dying.

Just as he was about to ask about the details of the mission, there was a knock on the small courtyard. Zheng Jingshan opened the array formation and a woman and two men in inner sect disciple clothes walked in.
