I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation

If Pei Ling had not already tightened his grip on the handle of the knife, the Life-Extinguishing Blade would have almost left his hand.

Upon seeing this scene, Miao Cheng’an became confident. “Aim for his saber! There’s no way he can hold on to it after a few more tries.”

“The Life-Extinguishing Blade is not something a person like you can use.” While Zhou Yi and Miao Cheng’an were engaging Pei Ling, Li Siguang took the opportunity to chant a rather long incantation swiftly, and two spirits appeared by his side.

The moment the spirits appeared, the room became chilly.

The two spirits he had summoned were not as tall as the two at the entrance of the General Affairs Hall, nor were they as lifelike as Jiao Ni and Wu Liu. Not only were they only half the size of an ordinary person, but there was also a mass of black fog below their waists. Their faces were also dull and blurry, and the chill they gave was limited, at most making one feel uncomfortable.

Li Siguang sneered and said darkly, “If you hand it over obediently, I can still leave your corpse intact! Otherwise…”

Before he could finish, the two spirits suddenly raised their heads and howled silently at Pei Ling!

Pei Ling felt as if his head got ruthlessly smashed by a sledgehammer. He was dizzy, and his hands and feet were sore. When he bit the tip of his tongue and forced himself to come back to his senses, the Life-Extinguishing Blade had already landed on the ground. Zhou Yi took the opportunity to rush forward and strike him hard on the chest.

Bam!

Pei Ling did not have the time to dodge as this palm landed solidly on him. He took five or six steps back uncontrollably due to the impact, knocking down some furniture pieces on the way. However, Pei Ling only felt uncomfortable in his chest. He had expected his ribs to break or his organs to be severely injured. He should have been unable to get up and die soon.

At the critical moment, although he was puzzled, he did not have the time to think. He immediately kicked off and stabilized his stance before rushing up to punch Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was even more surprised than him. He zoned out for a moment when he saw Pei Ling rushing over before finally putting up his arm to resist.

Clang!

Their fists and arms collided, emitting a clear metallic sound.

“What strong armor! And such a strong punch!” Zhou Yi felt a numbing sensation in his arms, and his expression couldn’t help but change as he reminded his companions loudly, “He might have superior-grade iron bone!”

“A superior-grade iron bone?” A glint flashed through Li Siguang’s eyes, and he humphed, “No wonder Zheng Jingshan got him here… then he deserves to die even more!”

As he spoke, Miao Cheng’an’s Qi blades cut through the air again, and the two spirits pounced forward, passing through Pei Ling’s body.

The spirits were formless and were extremely fast. Pei Ling had nothing to defend against them as he could only feel the deep chill every time they passed through.

The pressure mounted, and just as he was about to avoid the Qi blade, Zhou Yi took the opportunity to pounce on him, using his fingers like a halberd to gouge towards Pei Ling’s eyes.

In the face of danger, Pei Ling quickly calmed down. He lowered his head immediately and then slammed his head hard into Zhou Yi’s chin, forcing him to let go of him. However, the Qi blade struck him at this moment. Swoosh!

The black Qi blade might seem flimsy, but it was exceptionally sharp. It cut open Pei Ling’s arm comfortably, causing a string of blood to splash out.

Before Pei Ling could catch his breath, Zhou Yi had already pounced on him again.

“There’s something wrong with this brat!” Right at this moment, Li Siguang’s eyes flashed, and he shouted, “My spirits have already passed through his body three times! Any ordinary person’s hands and feet would have become paralyzed by now, but look at him!”

The three of them looked at Pei Ling together. Although he looked miserable, he remained agile and did not seem affected at all.

Miao Cheng’an’s expression turned cold. He seemed to have thought of something as he wiped his eyes. Immediately, a pale glow surfaced in his eyes. He looked at Pei Ling for a moment and could not help but take a deep breath. “Recall the spirits! Don’t go near him again!”

In his vision, he saw that Pei Ling seemed to be wearing light gray gauze clothing. Every time a spirit passed through him, the “gauze clothes” would gently sway and suck away some of the black fog. After that, the color of the gauze seemed to deepen and become more lively.

Although Miao Cheng’an did not cultivate spirit control techniques, he knew that the black fog was the source of the spirit’s powers after living with Li Siguang for some time.

It meant that after a few more rounds, nothing might happen to Pei Ling. On the other hand, the two spirits that Li Siguang had spent a lot of effort nurturing were definitely going to suffer!

Li Siguang did not question further as he recalled the spirits back to his side, sizing up Pei Ling in bewilderment.

Until this point, he had only wanted to snatch the saber. Now, he really wanted to kill!

After all, Pei Ling had only just entered the sect, and he was already so troublesome. Since they had become enemies, it was better to exterminate the root of the problem.

With this thought, Li Siguang secretly gestured to his two companions before he took out an octagonal palace lantern. However, it lit up in a mysterious dark green color.

The moment this palace lantern appeared, the room became more chilly. The two spirits’ black eyes dyed into the color of the lantern flames. Both of them looked at Pei Ling and howled again.

Again, Pei Ling felt as if he had been struck in the head by a heavy hammer. However, he endured the pain this time and saw Zhou Yi’s kick. He immediately dodged to the side and punched the right side of Zhou Yi’s face.

Bam!

Zhou Yi lost his balance and got knocked to the ground. At the same time, his right cheek swelled up. He was in disbelief. They were both at the fourth level of Qi Refinement, so how could his opponent be this strong?

Having succeeded in one strike, Pei Ling was about to pursue further when he saw another Qi blade shoot over. He hurriedly rolled on the ground and avoided it by a hair’s breadth.

This time, Zhou Yi had stood up while Pei Ling was on the ground. He gave a sly laugh and smashed his fists toward Pei Ling’s head.

The two were too close to each other, and Pei Ling had no time to dodge. Just as the enemy rushed in front of him, he exerted strength at his waist, and his legs sprang up, pinning Zhou Yi to the ground. He then pounced on him and rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding another Qi blade aimed at his throat.

The two fought on the ground, but Zhou Yi was no match to Pei Ling’s strength. After taking a few punches in a row, Zhou Yi spat out blood, but he could not break free. Meanwhile, Miao Cheng’an and Li Siguang, who were at the side, did not dare to attack to prevent harming their teammate.

Seeing that the odds were against Zhou Yi, Li Siguang hurriedly stepped forward and punched right at Pei Ling’s back.

Pei Ling saw Li Siguang coming from the corner of his eye and quickly twisted his body, turning Zhou Yi around to block in front of him.

Li Siguang was afraid of harming his companion, and he hurriedly withdrew his punch. However, Pei Ling exerted strength in his lower body, abruptly kicking Zhou Yi away, who crashed toward Li Siguang.

Zhou Yi had cultivated the Green Ghost Battle Body, but he still could not withstand Pei Ling’s kicks and punches. Meanwhile, Li Siguang specialized in controlling spirit, and his physique was weaker than Zhou Yi’s. He had just taken two steps back when Zhou Yi bumped into him uncontrollably.

Thud!

After Pei Ling got the two of them on the ground, he rushed up without hesitation and smashed his fists down on the two of them!

However, at this moment, two Qi blades suddenly shot over from the left and right toward his back! Pei Ling hurriedly dodged to the side despite his exhaustion from the battle. Still, he got cut by the Qi blades, and two streams of blood flowed out!

As Miao Cheng’an acted in time, Zhou Yi and Li Siguang finally caught their breath. The two of them crawled up from the ground miserably.. Zhou Yi said coldly, “Kill him! We’ll pay the fine together!”
