Transmigrating as a Crazy Villainess, She Becomes Invincible by Slacking Off - Chapter 18

Ruan Dongling had long forgotten she was an Immortal Cultivator, too terrified to even step outside.

Ding! Host has successfully slacked off, gaining the Basic True Sight Eye!

As an Immortal Cultivator, facing danger and choosing only to hide and evade instead of striking back—what else could that be but slacking off?

Not a shred of ambition!

The moment Ruan Dongling heard the electronic, mechanical voice, it felt as if an invisible film had been torn away from her eyes. Everything she saw became startlingly clear.

What is the True Sight Eye?

The Basic True Sight Eye allows you to see hidden spiritual bodies.

So… I can see ghosts now?

Ruan Dongling shuddered, goosebumps rising all over her body. I’d rather not have this eye at all!

Can you take this True Sight Eye back? I don’t want to see ghosts!

Ding! Host has successfully slacked off, upgrading the Basic True Sight Eye to the Intermediate True Sight Eye!

Huh?

Ruan Dongling stared in disbelief.

The Intermediate True Sight Eye allows you to see the true essence of things!

Ruan Dongling dared not speak another word.

She turned to look at Too Flashy and noticed a line of text floating above his normally unremarkable head.

Earth Grade Mid-Tier Spirit Beast, Cub, Peak of Qi Refining Third Layer!

This…

Ruan Dongling glanced at the nearby table and saw another line of text appear:

Hundred-Year Black Yang Wood.

Just as she was about to examine other objects, darkness enveloped her vision, a wave of dizziness washed over her, and overwhelming fatigue settled in her heart.

Using the True Sight Eye consumes Spiritual Power. With your current cultivation level, you can only use it twice.

Ruan Dongling’s heart leaped with joy!

This was a divine skill for finding hidden treasures!

There were so many things she wanted to see the true nature of!

Hahaha!

After using the True Sight Eye, Ruan Dongling felt utterly exhausted and quickly climbed into bed.

Her hand brushed against something icy and cool—Xiao Si.

“Xiao Si, why aren’t you awake yet? How much longer will you sleep?”

The next morning, Ruan Dongling opened her eyes to feel something cold and wet licking her face.

“Xiao Si! You’re finally awake!”

Xiao Si, clearly overjoyed, scrambled all over Ruan Dongling, repeatedly nuzzling her hand with his head.

When Ruan Dongling picked up Xiao Si, she noticed a significant change in him.

Xiao Si’s original black-and-white markings seemed to have shifted. The black patterns had diminished, while the white ones had become more prominent.

Ruan Dongling recalled the book’s description of Yun Yan’er’s Ancestral Dragon—a magnificent white dragon!

Could it be that Xiao Si would eventually shed all his black markings and become completely white?

With this thought, Ruan Dongling activated her True Sight Eye on Xiao Si.

A line of small text appeared above Xiao Si’s head:

Spirit Beast, Unknown, Master Recognition.

What is this?

Apart from confirming that Xiao Si was a Spirit Beast and had recognized a master, she gained no further information.

Is Xiao Si really this mysterious?

Ruan Dongling pondered. It was likely her True Sight Eye needed to reach a higher level before she could see through his secrets.

She tried to use her usual trick: Quickly retract the True Sight Eye!

But the System ignored her.

Ah, it seems that won’t work. The System can immediately distinguish between genuine laziness and feigned laziness.

Though she had been thoroughly frightened by that invisible entity, Ruan Dongling had gained a new skill as a result—a blessing in disguise.

In the following days, she remained vigilant, but no further anomalies occurred. It was as if everything she had seen and heard that day had been nothing more than a hallucination.

It made sense, after all. This was the First Peak of the Heaven Origin Sect, the territory of the great Ding Chengyang! What foolish little devils would dare cause trouble here?

Ruan Dongling, always carefree, quickly put the incident out of her mind.

In the following days, she spent her time eating, drinking, playing, fishing, hunting birds, and sleeping whenever she felt tired. She fully embraced a life of leisure.

If not for the sect rules forbidding Personal Disciples below the Foundation Establishment stage from descending the mountain to the mortal realm, she would have already had Too Flashy take her on adventures far and wide.

Three months passed.

Ruan Dongling’s cultivation had reached the ninth layer of Qi Refining!

She was currently fishing in a cold pond behind the mountain when suddenly, the clear, cloudless sky was instantly covered by dark, ominous clouds.

A vast thundercloud, crackling with lightning, surged directly toward the First Peak where she stood!

The commotion startled Ruan Dongling so badly that she dropped her fishing rod into the pond!

The thundercloud moved with incredible speed, sweeping overhead in the blink of an eye and continuing toward the First Peak.

That direction…

It was Fifth Senior Brother’s Cave Abode!

Could it be?

Fifth Senior Brother was breaking through!

This… Fifth Senior Brother’s momentum toward the Nascent Soul stage was so immense that it had summoned a thundercloud?

As she pondered, a bolt of purple Heavenly Thunder crackled through the air and struck a distant point.

“Fifth Senior Brother!”

Purple Heavenly Thunder?

It was the legendary Purple Firmament Thundercloud, the highest-grade tribulation!

Only Immortal Cultivators with the potential to ascend to the Immortal Realm could attract such a thundercloud.

Legend had it that the Heavenly Realm used this method to eliminate mortals capable of breaking through their mortal shackles.

In the tens of thousands of years of recorded history in True Martial Prefecture, only their current Sect Leader, Ding Chengyang, and her father, Ruan Liuruo, had summoned the Purple Firmament Thundercloud during their Nascent Soul breakthroughs.

Rumor had it that Long Aotian, the first person from True Martial Prefecture to ascend to immortality, had even attracted the Purple Firmament Thundercloud during his Core Formation!

Duan Tianhe’s talent was truly heaven-defying!

As the first bolt of purple thunder struck, it was immediately followed by another, and then another.

Nine consecutive bolts of Heavenly Thunder tore through the void, leaving jagged rifts in their wake.

The power of the Heavenly Thunder was terrifying beyond measure!

And this was merely the tribulation for the Nascent Soul Realm.

What unimaginable might would the tribulation thunder hold for the Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Great Ascension, and Tribulation Transcendence stages?

Could the human body truly withstand such cosmic power?

Ruan Dongling was deeply worried. Abandoning her fishing, she yanked the cowering Too Flashy toward her.

“Quick, go check on Fifth Senior Brother!”

Too Flashy trembled in fear of the Heavenly Thunder, while Xiao Si, standing beside them, was brimming with fighting spirit. Its head was tilted skyward, its eyes fixed intently on the distant thunderclouds.

Over the past three months, Xiao Si had twice entered a deep slumber after consuming Spirit Stones. Its current form was no longer that of a bizarre Four-Legged Snake.

The limbs that should never have existed had completely receded, leaving only a few black spots scattered across its body.

Now, Xiao Si resembled a white snake covered in black spots!

Since this transformation, Xiao Si had stopped consuming Spirit Stones. They no longer had any effect on it.

Ruan Dongling used her True Sight Eye twice, obtaining different results each time.

The first time, it showed: “Yellow Grade High-Grade Spirit Beast, Cub, ***Master Recognition.”

The second time, it showed: “Profound Grade High-Grade Spirit Beast, Cub, ***Master Recognition.”

The Thunder Tribulation arrived and departed swiftly. As the ninth bolt of Heavenly Thunder struck, the thunderclouds dissipated into nothingness.

By then, the Elders from all directions had finally converged above First Peak.

Ruan Dongling, being the closest and reacting swiftly, was the first to reach Duan Tianhe’s Cave Abode.

The entire mountain peak had been scorched black by the tribulation lightning.

All vegetation had been obliterated, leaving behind the acrid, lingering scent of the lightning.

In the center of a deep crater, a charred, coal-like figure lay curled up.

“Senior Brother!”

Ruan Dongling leaped down from Too Flashy, scrambling on her hands and knees to reach the charred figure.

“Senior Brother, Senior Brother!” Tears streamed down her face as she gazed at the coal-like mass.

She rushed forward, lifting the charred figure’s head and pouring out a handful of Medicinal Pills—healing elixirs and bl00d-nourishing pills—as if they were worthless, trying to force them into Duan Tianhe’s mouth.

But after struggling for a while, she realized she couldn’t even find his mouth.

“Senior Brother…” Ruan Dongling’s hands trembled as she desperately searched for his mouth.

Just then, a faint, thread-like cough came from behind her.

“I… I…”

Ruan Dongling turned to see a row of stark white teeth gleaming from the pitch-black charcoal.

“Why… why are you hugging my foot?”
