The end of Gaowu: Becoming stronger from not practicing

Inside the rubber factory.

Familiar memories are fading away, while unfamiliar memories are emerging.

Once Zhang Lingfeng accepts his current identity and considers himself an employee of the rubber factory, he will be devoured by the Demon Emperor.

This is a calamity.

A calamity was set in which Zhang Lingfeng was targeted.

Fortunately, as a level 5 Soul Master, destroying Zhang Lingfeng's memories was not an easy task.

Secondly, there is no news regarding the "lying flat" fate.

"I am Zhang Lingfeng. I come from the Blackwater Starfield. I am the ruler of the Blackwater Starfield. I ascended to the Upper World. This is the Boundless Starfield. I came from the Black Tiger Starfield. I was trying to avoid bad karma, but I ended up getting tainted by even more bad karma."

I am Zhang Lingfeng!

Zhang Lingfeng's voice echoed in my mind.

But his body was drawn involuntarily to the rubber factory's assembly line.

The rubber factory operates on a two-shift system, with each shift lasting twelve hours. There are no days off throughout the year, and shifts change every ten days. There are no social insurances or housing fund benefits, and no holidays. Wages are withheld for one and a half months.

Zhang Lingfeng's limbs moved in sync with the workers on the assembly line.

The mechanical repetition of one action after another seemed to imprint itself into Zhang Lingfeng's mind and soul, becoming a part of his memory.

Once these memories are integrated into his soul, Zhang Lingfeng will accept his current identity.

Thus, they were devoured by the Demon Emperor.

Zhang Lingfeng was fighting back solely with his spiritual consciousness. He glanced at the information on the panel.

Lying flat value: 0.2

Immortal Essence: 9734.3
Soul element: 1522
Immortal Essence Dao Technique: (39/100) Avoidance

Soul Essence Dao Technique: (26.5/100) Weakened

Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Method: (1/100)

Immortal Lord's Immortal Essence Cultivation Method: (1/100)

Realm: Level 5 Soul Master, Immortal Lord

With Tie Mingxiong's help, Zhang Lingfeng had previously obtained the Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Method from the Shadow Alliance. However, before becoming a Level 5 Soul Essence Master, he was unable to add the Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Method to his panel.

Now I can finally add the Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Method to the panel.

Each value can be exchanged for 12.0 Soul Essence, but the required "lying down" value far exceeds that of the Level 4 Soul Essence Cultivation Method, with an exchange ratio as high as 100,000 to 1.

To upgrade the Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Technique to perfection, ten million "lying down" points are needed, which is an astronomical figure for Zhang Lingfeng.

Furthermore, according to the strength classification of a level six Soul Master, one must have a Soul Essence volume exceeding 3500.0 to be considered a level six Soul Master.

Therefore, even if Zhang Lingfeng cultivates this Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Method to perfection, his Soul Essence volume will only be a little over 2,700, which is still some distance from 3,500.

In other words, just like the Level 4 Soul Essence Cultivation Method, the Level 5 Soul Essence Cultivation Method is also divided into an upper part and a lower part.

The fifth-level Soul Essence Cultivation Method that Tie Mingxiong provided to Zhang Lingfeng was suitable for Zhang Lingfeng's cultivation, which was very fortunate. However, Zhang Lingfeng had no idea where the other fifth-level Soul Essence Cultivation Method was.

Perhaps we'll have to go through the Shadow Alliance to obtain it.

As for the Immortal Lord's Immortal Essence Cultivation Method, Zhang Lingfeng obtained it from Ma Qingqing before they parted ways. As an Immortal Lord powerhouse, he was a disciple of the Soul Emperor. Ma Qingqing could not provide Zhang Lingfeng with a corresponding Soul Essence Cultivation Method, but it was relatively easy for her to give him an Immortal Lord's Immortal Essence Cultivation Method.

The exchange rate for the Immortal Lord's Immortal Essence Cultivation Method is 100,000 "lying flat" points to 1, but one value can be exchanged for 96.0 Immortal Essence.

The minimum standard for the immortal essence volume of a Celestial Emperor is 19200.0.

Once this Immortal Lord's Immortal Essence Cultivation Method is perfected, one can attain the Dao of Immortal Emperor.

The required flatness value is an astronomical figure.

Use your soul to awaken the panel.

Zhang Lingfeng has finally regained some of his body's resilience.

As someone destined to live a life of complacency and always looking for ways to put it into practice, how could Zhang Lingfeng possibly stand working in an assembly line factory, working twelve hours a day, year-round, with shifts changing every ten days?

Even if he was being controlled to do this, he still wouldn't gain any "lying down" points.

Therefore, he must gain control of his body.

He controlled his body to walk off the assembly line, out of the factory, and back to his dormitory to sit.

“Ah Feng, if you don’t go to work soon, you won’t get your bonus this month.”

“Ah Feng, Xiao Yun said if you keep slacking off like this, she’s going to break up with you.”

“We’re all saving money to buy a house and a car. If you keep going like this, who will marry you in the future?”

……

Not long after returning to his dormitory, many people came to persuade Zhang Lingfeng. All of this felt like the real world of a factory.

There are all sorts of characters.

They tried every means to get Zhang Lingfeng to accept reality and return to the assembly line.

Supervisors and managers also came over to give them a lecture.

Zhang Lingfeng was forced to return to the assembly line immediately, or his bonus would be deducted, or he would even be fired. In the end, even his so-called girlfriend came to complain.

If Zhang Lingfeng hadn't kept his mind clear, he probably would have already succumbed, considering himself part of the factory, and been devoured by the Demon Emperor.

He made an excuse that he was tired, wanted to rest, and wanted to ask for leave.

He took seven days off.

The rubber factory began to announce that he lacked team spirit and that his bonuses and wages would be deducted. Xiaoyun broke up with him, and everyone in the dormitory moved out, believing that he was affecting everyone.

Even the cafeteria wouldn't serve Zhang Lingfeng food.

Although his mind remained clear, the feeling of hunger was extremely strong, and even the gossip around him might affect Zhang Lingfeng.

Zhang Lingfeng looked to be in great pain.

Seven days passed.

Zhang Lingfeng checked the panel information again.

Lying flat value: 7.2

Zhang Lingfeng's soul was trembling.

The Demon Emperor wanted to turn him into a corporate slave, make him a part of the factory, make him believe in his current identity, and make him accept the world he was seeing.

Unexpectedly, by consistently practicing "lying flat" in this field, Zhang Lingfeng was able to earn 10,000 "lying flat" points every day, something he hadn't anticipated.

He thought that if he walked off the assembly line and went back to his dormitory to lie down, he should be able to earn "lying down points". He never expected that he would earn 10,000 points in a single day.

If things continue like this, entering the Demon Emperor's space might not necessarily be a bad thing.

If you persist, you may be able to attain the Dao of Immortal Emperor within three years.

"Buzz!"

The moment the thought appeared, Zhang Lingfeng's spirit weakened considerably, and his consciousness became somewhat blurred.

"What a terrifying world will."

Zhang Lingfeng was utterly terrified.

The moment he felt the joy of staying in the Demon Emperor's space, it was as if he were being completely imprinted there, as if he had lost all subjective consciousness.

They will readily accept this identity of theirs.

This is such a terrible thing.

If it weren't for the fact that I am a level 5 Soul Master and have the help of destiny, I would probably have had all my skills erased by the Demon Emperor and become nourishment for the Demon Emperor's advancement.

"This guy has actually managed to hold on until now." The Demon Emperor found it somewhat strange.

Seven years have passed, and Zhang Lingfeng is still able to fight against him.

In Zhang Lingfeng's perception, only seven days had passed, but in reality, seven years had already passed.

It took Zhang Lingfeng seven years to accumulate 70,000 points of "lying down" value.

The Demon Emperor infused a wisp of consciousness into the world he created, making all life imperceptible to the passage of time; seven years felt like seven days to them.

Let them forget everything and serve him as much as possible.

The nourishment that a level 5 Soul Master, who is also a Celestial Lord cultivator, can provide is terrifying.

The Demon Emperor is determined to devour Zhang Lingfeng completely.

Strengthen your divine soul and immortal energy.

Although Zhang Lingfeng had faced an obstacle in integrating into his world for seven years, the Demon Emperor knew that Zhang Lingfeng could never leave his world.

It will be refined sooner or later.

So he was in no hurry.

"You want to compete with me for the Dragon's fortune? No way."

The Demon Emperor snorted coldly.

He sensed that many powerful immortals were searching for his space.

If he could devour those people all at once, he would have loved to let them into his space as well.

Digest them all at once.

Although he was known as the Demon Emperor.

However, the Demon Emperor was not a Celestial Emperor.

In fact, it is just a plant in the Wuji Starfield.

It's called Demon Cloud Vine.

It can secrete a hallucinogenic scent, which can sometimes cause even powerful immortal emperors to feel disoriented, and many immortal lords cannot resist it.

Therefore, the Demon Emperor is a rather troublesome and frightening existence in the Boundless Star Domain, and even Ma Qingqing does not dare to confront him.

They were afraid that the Demon Cloud Vine would take them into its world, make them forget their past, and gradually become nourishment for the Demon Cloud Vine.

Legend has it that the Demon Cloud Vine has devoured no fewer than ten Immortal Lords, not to mention countless Nine Heavens Mystic Immortals and Great Luo Golden Immortals. These cultivators either sought refuge in the Boundless Star Domain or braced themselves to venture in, hoping to find an opportunity.

Great danger is accompanied by great opportunity.

Some people who encounter bottlenecks in their cultivation and are unable to make a breakthrough sometimes take risks and venture into the Boundless Star Domain to try their luck.

Therefore, the Demon Cloud Vine that devoured Zhang Lingfeng now had enough nutrients to absorb and gradually became stronger.

In the real world of the Demon Cloud Vine, Zhang Lingfeng's physical body was wrapped up by the Demon Cloud Vine, like a rice dumpling.

In the instant of hallucination, Zhang Lingfeng was enveloped by the Demon Cloud Vine.

Unfortunately, Mo Yunteng could not directly refine his physical body and soul.

The only way to prevent Zhang Lingfeng from noticing is through the hallucinogenic scent that his physical body is enveloped by the roots of the Demon Cloud Vine. The world created by the Demon Cloud Vine will gradually gain Zhang Lingfeng's trust.

This rendered Zhang Lingfeng incapable of resisting.

It even voluntarily contributed its own divine soul and immortal energy to become part of its growth nourishment.

The legend of the dragon's fortune is too beautiful and exaggerated.

The Demon Cloud Vine tried every means to devour Zhang Lingfeng completely.

They sensed that Immortal Lord Ziyang and the others had entered the Boundless Star Domain.

Mo Yunteng began to hide with Zhang Lingfeng.

It cannot be found by Immortal Lord Ziyang and his group.

The scent it was secreting at this moment could only be used to confuse Zhang Lingfeng, and could not continue to confuse a second Immortal Lord, otherwise Zhang Lingfeng might wake up.

In Zhang Lingfeng's perception, it was as if he had entered a real world.

He was unaware that he was trapped by the Demon Cloud Vine, which was attempting to devour his soul, disintegrate his immortal essence and soul essence, and gradually consume him over a long period of time.

Unexpectedly, although Zhang Lingfeng was unaware of his location, his mind remained clear throughout.

He thought he could gain 10,000 points of "lying down" value every day, which made him quite excited. Once he became an Immortal Emperor, he could fight his way out of the Boundless Star Domain and slaughter all the people sent by the White Ocean Immortal Emperor.

We can fight the Shadow Alliance to the bitter end, and even return to the White Ocean Starfield to bring back the little golden dragon.

In short, in the false world created by Moyunteng, Zhang Lingfeng tried every means to put his "lying flat" philosophy into practice, so that he could get out of the factory and no longer be on the assembly line.

The surrounding noises, insults, and mockery, even the intense hunger, could not make him surrender. With his mind still clear, Zhang Lingfeng knew that hunger could not destroy him.

The pain will gradually disappear.

He just needs to keep going.

Mo Yunteng felt somewhat troubled.

Zhang Lingfeng seemed to be trapped in its own space, but he was still putting up a last-ditch resistance, leaving the creature helpless. If it wanted to devour Zhang Lingfeng and make him its nourishment, it first had to deceive Zhang Lingfeng and make him believe that he was a part of the rubber factory.

Like any other life form, he would work day after day until he was completely numb and integrated into the rubber factory. Then he would be able to devour Zhang Lingfeng as quickly as he devoured a fruit.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to eliminate Zhang Lingfeng.

As a result, Mo Yunteng changed the rules of the world, making Zhang Lingfeng a leader in the rubber factory, allowing him to enjoy the feeling of being surrounded and admired, thus causing him to lose himself.

Accept your current identity and consider yourself a part of the rubber factory.

However, things took an unexpected turn. After Zhang Lingfeng became the leader, he didn't manage the rubber factory much and didn't care about what people thought of him.

Instead, a few junior leaders spend their days hiding in their offices playing mahjong or cards. Although they accept the changes in the world, they are also detached from it.

Time flies.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Lying flat value: 17.2

In Zhang Lingfeng's perception, it seemed that only seventeen days had passed in this world. In seventeen days, he had gained 170,000 "lying down" points. Where in the world above could one get such treatment?

In Zhang Lingfeng's eyes at this moment, what were considered negative consequences had all become blessings.

He was immersed in this world.

He tried every means to obtain "lying down" points, hoping to use them to upgrade the Immortal Lord Immortal Essence Cultivation Method when he had accumulated ten million points, so that he could become an Immortal Emperor in an instant.

Thus, they tore open this hypocritical world and broke out of the Boundless Starfield.

"How could this be? Did he discover the problem?"

The Demon Cloud Vine felt strange and couldn't help but tighten its grip on Zhang Lingfeng's body, its vines trying to pierce into Zhang Lingfeng's body and forcibly absorb his power.

Unfortunately, Zhang Lingfeng's physical defense is extremely strong, and this method of absorption takes a very long time to achieve its effect.

Furthermore, once Zhang Lingfeng awakens and attacks it with his soul essence and immortal essence, it will also suffer a backlash.

Although he was known as the Demon Emperor, Mo Yunteng knew that he was not yet a Celestial Emperor. Otherwise, why would he have used so many methods to devour a Celestial Lord?

"I must obtain his soul essence power."

Demon Cloud Vine was filled with greed.

Zhang Lingfeng's soul essence power can help it prove its Dao, and it is the most scarce cultivation resource for it. It sensed once again that someone had entered the Boundless Star Domain and was pursuing the cause and effect of Zhang Lingfeng and the fluctuations of his aura.

They had no choice but to take Zhang Lingfeng underground and try to hide.
