I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation

Chapter 26: Corpse Cloud

Although it was only a random disciple who said it and had no intention of finding Li Siguang and the other two, it still made Pei Ling’s heart jump. He was afraid that in the next moment, a patrolling disciple would descend from the sky and arrest him for questioning in the Disciplinary Hall…

However, he got rejected by seven to eight teams in a row. A kind senior brother even told him directly that no team would accept a burden like him for free. He would either need to pay spirit stones or in other ways. Otherwise, it was better to stay in the sect obediently and be down-to-earth.

After all, everything in the Holy Sect required spirit stones. Most of the disciples were busy working for their livelihoods, so where would they find the time to do good deeds?

Pei Ling was anxious and angry. As he was rapidly thinking of his next moves, a man and a woman squeezed through the crowd. From the looks of it, they were siblings. As they greeted the surrounding people, they revealed that they had just received a mission and were about to leave immediately. It was just that the team was coincidentally short of people, so they came to find someone to fill the numbers.

A male disciple stepped forward and asked, “Senior Brother Chen, may I ask what kind of cultivator you want? Can you consider me?”

“I’m sorry, your cultivation level is too high. I’m looking for a disciple at the third or fourth level of Qi Refinement.” Chen Huan glanced at Zhao Yan and said with a friendly smile, “After all, the main purpose of this trip is to train my sister, so it’s better to be of the same level as her.”

His cousin, Chen Mei, stood at the side and smiled shyly. She seemed elegant and gentle.

Pei Ling’s eyes could not help but light up. He pushed through the crowd and walked over. “Senior Brother, I happen to be at the fourth level of Qi Refinement!”

As he had been rejected too many times, he did not have much hope when he said it.

To his surprise, Chen Huan gave him a casual look and said, “Okay, but we’re leaving soon. Are you fine with that?”

“No problem!” Pei Ling was overjoyed. After killing Li Siguang and the other two, he wanted to leave the sect immediately. He was not willing to wait a moment longer!

Chen Huan was a paranoid person and was slightly suspicious when he saw Pei Ling take the bait so smoothly. However, on second thought, Pei Ling came from a small and remote city. He had just entered the Holy Sect yesterday and was already thinking of leaving today. It was not surprising that he got tricked so easily.

Therefore, he brought Pei Ling out of the Miscellaneous Committee and into a secluded area. He gestured for Chen Mei to call the others over as he said slowly, “Junior Brother, my surname is Chen, and my name is Chen Huan…”

He gave a brief introduction of himself and expressed that he had accepted a few missions this time. Furthermore, as a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refinement, he would part ways with the team and complete one of the missions alone.

“Let me be honest with you. The main reason I’m going out this time is to broaden my sister’s horizons. It’s just that the entry and exit fee for the Holy Sect is not cheap. To compensate for the loss, I took on more missions myself.” Chen Huan seemed cultured and sincere. “After I leave, I’ll have to trouble you to take care of my sister. This girl has been protected too well by her family and is too naive. Last time out at the market at the foot of the mountain. If not for our fellow disciples, she would have almost been deceived by some itinerant cultivator!”

In other words, he was only at the sixth stage of Qi Refinement. He did not look for anyone with a higher cultivation level and chose someone as strong as his sister. He was afraid that Pei Ling would not harm his sister if he left for another mission.

Indeed, Pei Ling promised solemnly, “Don’t worry, Senior Brother Chen. Since we are all in the same team, then we are bound together. I will protect Senior Sister Chen well!”

He would find a chance to escape after leaving the sect.

When the time came, who would care whether these siblings lived or died?

“The sect’s fine is too high. I have to trick this brat outside as quickly as possible!” Chen Huan thought the same. “My Soul Summoning Banner is almost complete. After obtaining this brat’s blood essence and soul, its power will surely reach a higher level. By then…”

Both had similar thinking, afraid that the other would go back on his word, and their attitudes became friendlier.

Therefore, when Chen Mei brought the three people over, they saw that Chen Huan and Pei Ling were like long-lost friends who had become inseparable.

“Junior Brother Pei, let me introduce you to everyone.” Chen Huan was enthusiastic when he saw Chen Mei and the others. “This is Chen Mei, my disappointing sister. She’s at the fourth level of Qi Refinement. Here is Huang Xian, and this is Zhang Zhongqin. And lastly, Xiao Tasha. They are all at the fifth level of Qi Refinement. We have known each other for many years. Now that a young talent like Junior Brother Pei has joined us, it’s a great pleasure!”

After everyone arrived, they exchanged pleasantries before Chen Huan led everyone to a platform in the clouds at the mountain waist.

There was already a queue here. Although it was not a long queue, Chen Huan and Pei Ling felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. If not for the ten spirit stones fine for cutting the queue, they would have rushed to the front.

After a while, it was finally their turn. Chen Huan immediately took out ten spirit stones and said to the disciple in charge of the place, “One Corpse Cloud, please hurry up! My mission is urgent!”

The disciple did not say anything and threw the ten spirit stones into a magic formation at the side. Immediately, dark clouds surged in the sky above the magic formation. Soon, a sinister-looking cloud formed with broken limbs appeared.

“Hop on, Junior Brother Pei.” Chen Huan was the first to step up. He was stepping on a cloud of mist under his feet, but for some reason, it seemed to hold him up like solid ground.

It was Pei Ling’s first time seeing the Corpse Cloud. However, at this moment, he was not in the mood to study the marvels of this cloud. Immediately, he stepped forward without a word. The cloud was not as soft as he thought. It was actually firm.

After everyone went up, Chen Huan made a hand seal, and the Corpse Cloud began to move slowly. Then, it gradually increased in speed and floated southeast.

“Senior Brother Chen.” Pei Ling asked upon seeing this, “Is the Holy Sect’s mountain gate in the southeast?”

“Junior Brother Pei, you just entered yesterday. No wonder you didn’t know.” Chen Huan laughed out loud when he heard this and said, “The official gate of the Holy Sect is actually in the south! However, the entire sect is within the Nine Heavens Ten Earths Yin-Yang Separation Buddha Formation. In order to facilitate the entry and exit of the disciples, there are tunnels set up in all directions. As long as we verify the nameplate, we can pass through. Our destination for this trip is closer to the southeast, which is why we chose this direction.”

A thought popped up in Pei Ling’s mind. He said, “In other words, after leaving the sect, the nameplate won’t be of much use?”

“How can that be?” It was Huang Xian who answered. This person had not spoken much from the start and seemed to look down on Pei Ling. He sneered, “When we entered the sect, we used our blood essence to light the Life Soul Candle. This nameplate was created by separating a wisp of aura from the Life Soul Candle. In the sect, it cannot leave your body for a moment. After leaving the sect, it is not just our identification documents. The Holy Sect can also use it to locate us when we are in danger!”

“… Senior Brother Huang, in that case, does this mean that the nameplate has many uses even after leaving the sect?” Pei Ling was startled.. He immediately probed, “What if I accidentally lose it?”
