I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 78 Voyeurism, Unauthorized Photography, Perversion (Please continue reading)
After lunch.

Li Yan brought Jiang Yingzhu to the back mountain of the school.

There's no school on the back mountain, but there are Taoist temples, Buddhist temples, and nunneries on the top.

There aren't many people.

It was a place Li Yan had carefully considered for two lessons before finally choosing to receive the mission reward.

The Flying Shuttle sounds like a magical artifact that allows one to fly.

Flying on a sword—a dream for many boys!
Unfortunately, his cultivation level was insufficient; let alone flying on a sword, even levitation was difficult for him.

If there were magical artifacts to assist, things would be different.

However, there is a risk involved in claiming the system's rewards, so please proceed with caution.

Based on the experience of receiving pills as a reward for Mei Mengqian's last mission, Li Yan estimated that the system could also refine weapons.

So he chose the secluded back mountain and brought Jiang Yingzhu with him.

"Why did you bring me here? To go hiking? Then why did you send my senior and Mengmeng away?"

Li Yan turned around and glanced at her, then reached out and tugged at her cheek.

"Press down your lips first. I'll take you climbing next time. I have something to do this time."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yingzhu looked around. They were currently on a small wooden boardwalk leading up the mountain, with rice paddies on either side.
At this time, the fields were completely barren.

"look at me."

Li Yan said that Jiang Yingzhu is someone he can absolutely trust, and he won't ask too many questions at crucial moments.

Even if the system manipulates him to cause some supernatural phenomenon, she won't be scared out of her wits.

"Looking at you? How can I look at you?"

Jiang Yingzhu held out her hand, "Give me a rope first, then a whip."

Li Yan rolled his eyes and looked around.

"Be serious. If I do anything out of line, you and I can take care of it."

Jiang Yingzhu looked puzzled, touched her chin, and nodded.

The two walked up the mountain road, where there was no one else. Li Yan stopped, gave her a look, and immediately clicked to claim the reward.

[Ding! Reward process in progress.]

As soon as the prompt appeared, Li Yan's body became uncontrollable, and he involuntarily walked up the mountain.

Jiang Yingzhu glanced at it, snorted, said nothing, and followed.

Thank goodness she didn't want to go hiking with me!
Li Yan walked quickly, but Jiang Yingzhu had excellent stamina and kept close behind him.

Soon, the system guided Li Yan to the mountainside, where he left the highway and entered a small path.

After taking only a couple of steps, he suddenly reached out, picked up a piece of green wood, and then stopped moving.

Li Yan observed the piece of wood with a puzzled look. It was about the thickness of an arm and looked like it was covered in moss.

But then, his hand suddenly slipped into Jiang Yingzhu's coat pocket.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Jiang Yingzhu raised her arm, and the coat draped over her wrist also lifted up.

But they couldn't dodge it.

The next second, Li Yan saw that he had a switchblade in his hand.

Li Yan: !!
Jiang Yingzhu's eyes darted around, and she immediately offered an explanation.

"I...I didn't bring it on purpose. I was just peeling fruit this morning and casually put it in my pocket. I didn't notice it. How did you know it was inside my shirt?!"

"You're spying and secretly filming! You're a pervert!!"

Jiang Yingzhu started to turn the tables, but after talking for a while, she found that Li Yan was completely ignoring her.

Instead, he sat down on the ground and began whittling wood with a knife.

A switchblade danced in his hand like a butterfly, and in the blink of an eye, a long, boat-like object appeared.

Jiang Yingzhu scratched her head, feeling as if the knife had somehow become faster.

After waiting for ages, he was still whittling wood.

Jiang Yingzhu frowned. "What are you doing? Why aren't you saying anything? Are you trying to punish me by ignoring me?! That's impossible!"

"I'm telling you, class is about to start."

But Li Yan still ignored him.

She looked around; the mountain path was shrouded in dense vegetation, with layers of fallen leaves, and was quite quiet. A look of doubt crossed her eyes.

"Has a ghost possessed you?"

Remembering Li Yan's previous instructions, Jiang Yingzhu nodded and pulled out a baton from her pants pocket.

"I'll beat the ghost out for you right now!"

"You hit the head first."

Li Yan stood up, the original foot-long piece of wood in his hand now sculpted into an exquisite model the size of a dagger. The long, narrow surface, resembling a cruise ship, was covered with intricate and beautiful patterns.

Jiang Yingzhu glanced at him, "You're finally willing to speak. I'm the better one."

Upon hearing this, Li Yan glanced at the gleaming baton in her hand, then got up and walked down the mountain.

"Next time you switch to an AK, absolutely no one will object."

"Where am I supposed to get that stuff?"

"If AK doesn't work, then let's switch to JK."

"?" Jiang Yingzhu tilted her head. "You wish!"

She glanced at the wooden toy in Li Yan's hand; it was quite exquisite.

"show me."

Li Yan handed it over casually, while reminiscing about the process of refining weapons using the system.

Li Yan didn't understand how the system used spiritual power to turn wood into a flying magical artifact.

But he grasped something else: how spiritual energy could be used to form the legendary sword and blade aura.

Although it feels pointless.

The flying shuttle carved by the system was exquisite. Jiang Yingzhu didn't dare to use any force and kept marveling at the patterns on it the whole way.

"Hey, when did you learn to carve? Carve me a snake tomorrow."

"Born with knowledge."

"Tch, not telling the truth, not doing your job properly, be careful you won't get into college."

"Ah, yes, yes!"

Jiang Yingzhu raised her fist, then lowered it, and glanced at the design of the flying shuttle.

"I feel like what you're saying is like that 'The Carved Olive-Pit Boat' story from junior high school."

"I think so too, I'm pretty good, right? You don't need to praise me, just call me 'good brother' and I'll let you play with me."

Li Yandao wasn't worried about Jiang Yingzhu damaging it; after being reinforced and refined with spiritual energy, the wood was even harder than alloy.

That piece of wood appeared to have been shaved to this size by Li Yan.

Actually, the movement was too fast, and Jiang Yingzhu didn't see it clearly.

Li Yan could see it clearly: the system was controlling him, and with each cut of wood, it miraculously merged into the cut mark in the next cut.

It has become an embellishment of textures, looking quite mysterious and difficult to understand.

It's not even wood anymore!
"I won't shout. The item is in my hands now. You can try to take it if you dare."

Jiang Yingzhu's face flushed, she gave a soft snort, grabbed what she was holding, and ran away.

Seeing his childhood sweetheart's carefree attitude, Li Yan smiled faintly and didn't chase after her.

I saw a scallion pancake on the roadside and bought one, with double the amount of egg, ham and bacon.

I'll pack one up while I'm at it.

"Auntie, please have more salad dressing."

"it is good."

The proprietress quickly packed the food, and Li Yan paid. He then picked up his phone and began browsing books about carving.

There's so much more to learn!

However, he felt that weapon crafting was very necessary.

Back in the classroom, it was almost time for class to start.

Mei Mengqian, who was sleeping on her desk, sat up, covered her mouth and yawned, then glanced at him.

He asked with a blank expression:
"You can't just leave it at that if you don't tell us where you went at noon."

"I've gone to scout out the path in the back mountain. I'll take you hiking next time during lunch break."

As Li Yan spoke, he handed her the scallion pancake.

"Really?!"

Mei Mengqian's eyes lit up; the interesting news and delicious food instantly dispelled her bad mood.

"of course it's true."

Li Yan nodded. For a first-year high school student, high school wasn't that tiring.

There are many things to do during lunch break.

Unlike my senior year of high school, when all I wanted to do was eat and sleep.

But I couldn't sleep well or eat well.

It's very strange, like I've been cursed.
