"System! Stop! This is not a place I should enter!" Pei Ling hurriedly shouted in his heart. As a powerhouse of the demonic path, the Deep Sea Sect had always been tyrannical and ferocious.
The Pei family might be influential in Deer Spring City and could call for wind and rain, but in the eyes of the Deep Sea Sect, the entire Pei family was merely an ant.
He had heard many such rumors before: A certain young master's entire family was annihilated in a night because he did not greet a disciple of the Deep Sea Sect. The skin of his entire family was peeled off and hung on a tree; A disciple of the Deep Sea Sect took a fancy to a certain family's young miss. A certain family did not take the initiative to send the young miss to the other party's door. Their entire family had their blood essence sucked dry by that disciple of the Deep Sea Sect…
The most terrifying thing was that everyone, including Deer Spring City, believed that it was not the disciples of the Heavy Sea Sect who were in the wrong, but those families.
The reason?
It was simple. Being weak was the original sin.
The weak were prey to the strong. For the Deep Sea Sect, after generations of domination, regardless of whether they joined a sect, most of the people here had already accepted the values of the sect from the bottom of their hearts, and they got used to it.
It was apparent how dangerous this Jade Parasol Compound was right now!
Seeing that the system remained passive, Pei Ling's entire consciousness was about to split open. "F*ck, I don't want you to cultivate anymore. Stop! F*ck me! Did you hear me?"
Perhaps sensing his breakdown, the system gave a thoughtful "Ding Dong" sound. "The Smart Cultivation System is at your service with all its might. Enjoy one-click management and smart cultivation!"
Pei Ling wanted to vomit blood. He could not control his body and could only watch as the system controlled his body to rush to the upper room on the west side of the Jade Parasol Compound.
The person living here was the Deep Sea Sect's Zheng Jingshan.
Two disciples of the Deep Sea Sect had come to Deer Spring City this time and were invited by the eldest son Pei Hongnian to stay at the foot of the Jade Parasol Compound.
One of them had never appeared in public before, and no one knew of his appearance, cultivation, or temperament.
As for Zheng Jingshan, he had a high cultivation level. As outstanding as his cultivation level, he was infamous for his viciousness. It was said that to compete for the position of inner sect master, he had not hesitated to kill his father, extract his soul, and refine it into a bloodline divine power that was far more powerful than usual. He had become famous amongst the internal sect.
Bang!
The next moment, Pei Ling helplessly watched as he kicked open the door of Zheng Jingshan's room and strutted in.
"Damn it!!!" Pei Ling felt his vision go dark as he roared in his mind, "System! Are you f*cking unsatisfied with me and want to change to a new host??
His thoughts ran wild, hoping to regain control of his body. However, the system was unmoved, and his struggles were apparently useless.
At this moment, Pei Ling received a grim reminder that he had lived in fear of artificial retards in his previous life.
The system directed his body to quickly circle the screen at the door. Inside was an extremely spacious room with beautiful furnishings. There was a beaded curtain hanging at the carved moon gate that led to the inner room. At the moment, it was shaking slightly, emitting a pleasant sound.
"Sys…" While Pei Ling did not give up to advise the system to calm down, he suddenly felt that someone was staring at him at the door.
Zheng Jingshan?!
Pei Ling could not help but be shocked!
However, he quickly realized that something was wrong, as there seemed to be more than one person watching from behind.
Moreover, if Zheng Jingshan were here, knowing this infamous disciple's temper and cultivation, Pei Ling would probably have died on the spot the moment he entered the room.
After all, he had transmigrated from a prosperous, democratic, civilized, and harmonious society to this world. He had relied on his perseverance to cultivate the Bone Forging Art to the stage of having half his body made of iron. Although he was caught off guard by this system's functions, he quickly calmed down at such a critical moment. "System, what's behind me?"
The system did not react to his call at all. It controlled his body to quickly walk to a corner, and its target was clear. It opened one of the boxes randomly scattered on the ground. It took out a porcelain bottle and poured out ten grayish-white pills.
These were the Bone Tempering Pills.
"Ding-dong! 10 Bone Tempering Pills have been gifted to you! The smart system will continue your cultivation…"
You call this a freaking gift?!
Not gifting my head away?!
Pei Ling wanted to vomit blood!
Immediately after, an even more terrifying scene occurred. His body had no intention of leaving at all. He merely turned around and walked to a futon not far away. His body then assumed a cultivation posture and swallowed all ten Bone Tempering Pills before circulating the Bone Forging Art.
This position coincidently allowed Pei Ling to see the door. The system did not even shut the door!
"…"
Son of a bitch! Son of a bitch! Hey system, did you hear that?! Son of a bitch!
But soon, he did not have the time to care about the door because he discovered the source of the stares: the screen at the door.
The translucent screen was embroidered with more than a hundred beautiful women who were elegant and lifelike. They were plump, slender, and stunningly beautiful. They either held fans, butterflies, pipa (Chinese lute), zither strings, branches, or foxes… all with different gestures.
However, no matter what they were doing, their gazes were fixated on Pei Ling.
Under normal circumstances, attracting the attention of such a beauty, not to mention all of these beauties were at the highest level of any beauty standards, any straight man would not reject such luck with women.
The only problem was that these beauties were not normal.
Although they were figures embroidered on a screen, the feeling of being stared at by a real person was almost tangible.
Even though Pei Ling could not control his body now, he could feel a chill down his spine.
"The Deep Sea Sect…" A fiendish sect was indeed mysterious.
Although he did not know the problem with this screen, it was clear that it was not easy to deal with.
If it were him, he would have long turned around and left, walking away as far as possible.
No, if he had known the "gift" method of this mentally challenged system, he would not have given it any chance to control him to enter Zheng Jingshan's room in the first place.
Now, he could only hope that Zheng Jingshan would give some face to his junior brother as a guest invited by Pei Hongnian. And that he had left some means to restrict this screen so that it would not injure the people of the Pei family.
Thinking of this, Pei Ling turned the attention back to himself.
He discovered that after consuming the Bone Tempering Pill, the circulation of the Bone Forging Art was over ten times faster than before.
Moreover, the rooms that the Pei Family used to host their esteemed guests had special formations. The spiritual energy here was much richer than in Pei Ling's place. He could clearly sense that his cultivation was rapidly increasing at an unprecedented rate!
Time passed bit by bit… Pei Ling was gradually immersed in the pleasure of continuously increasing his strength. Especially with the noise of metal clashing, all the muscles and bones in his body trembled. His pores opened up and a layer of dark red filth that was like fatty oil was expelled. In the next moment, Pei Ling felt that he had broken through a barrier. It was as if his entire body had broken free from some sort of restraint, and he had endless strength.
It was as if he could punch a giant hole in the stone wall of the room if he wanted.
"Ding dong!" At the same time, Pei Ling regained control of his body. A system notification sounded in his ear. "This cultivation session has been completed. Thank you for using the smart cultivation system. You have ascended without a worry with a single click! I look forward to you sharing your cultivation evaluation. If you are satisfied, please give me a five-star rating!"
A panel appeared, and the five familiar stars waited for the host to select.
"The iron bone is complete at the third level of Qi Refinement!" Pei Ling was shocked and even forgot that he was not in his room right now. He was overwhelmed with emotions.
He began to train his body at the age of five. When he was eight, the elders tested his potential and taught him the Bone Forging Art. Not long after, he opened his meridians to draw in Qi and became a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refinement.
In terms of talent, he was one of the most outstanding descendants of the Pei family in this generation, comparable to Pei Hongnian.
It was just that the descendants of the branch family had few resources and were suppressed by the stepmother. In addition, the cultivation of the Bone Forging Art was too vicious. He also had to save up spirit stones to activate the system. During the entire cultivation process, he couldn't even bear to use the nourishing herbs. He could only rely on his own recovery ability to endure it forcefully.
Therefore, he had spent a full ten years before reaching the second level of Qi Refinement two months ago.
It was already considered above average among his peers in Deer Spring City.
And now, this system had only helped him cultivate for a few hours, but it was able to refine his iron body from the second level Qi Refinement to the third level Qi Refinement?!
It was no wonder that predecessors once said that it would be satisfying for a while when you cheat once, but it will always be satisfying when you cheat all the time.
At this moment, Pei Ling clenched his fists slightly. As he felt the great power in his body, he suddenly felt that the system did not seem as detestable as before.
However, the gazes from the screen still made him uncomfortable.
Pei Ling frowned. He did not think too much and quickly stood up to leave.
On the way out, he passed by the screen. Although he tried his best to keep a distance, he saw from the corner of his eye that there were still a few beauties that stretched out their hands as if they wanted to tug at his clothes.
Fortunately, their arms had just extended out a foot from the screen when they encountered an invisible barrier. They let out a delicate cry, as if they were in pain, and withdrew reluctantly.
Although they could not touch Pei Ling, the gazes of all the beauties never left him.
When Pei Ling climbed over the wall and left the Jade Parasol Compound, he could still feel that more than a hundred people were quietly and attentively watching his back.
He did not know why, but even as the feeling of being watched gradually disappeared after Pei Ling walked away, he still had a faint premonition that he had caused huge trouble…
"I can't stay in the Pei residence anymore. I must leave immediately!" Pei Ling's heart sank. He could not care less about his concern about the screen. The system's way of gifting was too costly. Although he did not encounter Zheng Jingshan on the spot, this person was highly skilled in the demonic path after all. Who knew if he had any means to discover his infiltration and theft?
If he continued to stay in the Pei residence, he would not stand a chance if Zheng Jingshan came for him.
The most important matter at hand was to flee miles away to avoid the upcoming calamity immediately.
As he recited the
However, after he returned to his residence and packed his luggage as quickly as possible, he did not have the chance to leave the Pei Residence. A manservant saw him and shouted, "Seventh Young Master, the family head wants all the young masters and young miss to make a trip to the main hall now."
