Chapter 1

Zhou Bai, now in his pajamas and wearing slippers, was running quickly down a long, dark corridor, with a heart-wrenching roar coming from behind him.

"Damn!" Zhou Bai's mind was in chaos, a series of random thoughts flashing through his consciousness.

"What the hell is going on!"

"Why was I just sleeping at home, and now I'm in this place for no reason, and I even ran into a strange monster?"

He kicked off his slippers and ran barefoot. Due to his extreme tension, he didn't notice that his body was gradually becoming younger, transforming from a young man in his twenties to a teenager around seventeen or eighteen.

As he ran slower and slower, his lungs felt like they were on fire, and the roars behind him grew closer. Zhou Bai's eyes narrowed, and he saw that the corridor had reached its end, with a large iron door standing open before him.

Without time to think, Zhou Bai rushed through the door, only to find himself in a small room of less than ten square meters, with no second exit.

"Damn!" Zhou Bai cursed, the roars behind him making his scalp tingle. He quickly turned around, closed the iron door, and locked it, feeling a slight sense of safety.

"I wonder if this iron door can stop it..."

But even if the iron door could hold it back, Zhou Bai couldn't stay in this empty room forever.

As Zhou Bai, drenched in sweat, kept thinking about what to do, a woman's voice echoed in his mind.

"Are you Zhou Bai?"

"Who's there?" Zhou Bai looked around but saw no one.

"Don't look for me, you can't see me." The woman's voice continued, "Do you want to live?"

Zhou Bai hesitated for a moment and immediately said, "Yes!"

"Then take this, remember not to resist or reject it."

As she spoke, a white light appeared in the air, floating in front of Zhou Bai.

At that moment, a loud bang came from behind him, startling Zhou Bai. He turned to see the large iron door being repeatedly hit, distorting and deforming. He panicked and said, "What is this thing?"

"It's your cheat, with this, you might be able to defeat the thing outside."

"Cheat?!" Countless scenes from novels, anime, and games flashed through Zhou Bai's mind as he hesitantly reached for the white light.

Instantly, a series of white characters floated in his mind.

Please wait...

The Nine Disasters of the Celestial Being Auxiliary System is starting...

There are a thousand paths, but safety comes first. If you don't practice properly, your loved ones will shed tears.

Please practice safely under the guidance of the auxiliary system.

"Nine Disasters of the Celestial Being?" Zhou Bai was excited, "Just the name sounds awesome, it must be very powerful, right?"

Startup failed, a system error occurred (connection timed out)

For more details, see (here)

Seeing the words floating in his mind, Zhou Bai was speechless, "What a scam!"

"A system can have an error?!"

"The details can't even be clicked!!"

The woman's voice came again, seemingly unaware of the situation in Zhou Bai's mind, "What's wrong? What happened?"

"The system had an error! It failed to start!" Zhou Bai said, "What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?" He turned to look at the door, which was already severely deformed, and a pale hand was reaching through the gap, scraping off large chunks of the wall.

Zhou Bai's head ached, and he suddenly turned, dodging, but still felt something continuously hitting his head.

"Don't dodge!" the woman's voice said, "I'm the one hitting you."

Zhou Bai: "What are you doing!"

"I'm trying to see if I can fix you."

Zhou Bai: "Do you think I'm a machine? That's too careless!"

The woman ignored him, and Zhou Bai felt his head being hit a few more times.

System startup successful...

"Damn!" Not having time to complain about the system, Zhou Bai quickly examined the content in his mind, looking for a way to defeat the enemy.

The Nine Disasters of the Celestial Being Auxiliary System, assisting and guiding practitioners in the cultivation of the Nine Disasters of the Celestial Being.

Current status:

Degree of Daoization: 0%

Yuan Shen Value: 0

Divine Map: Nine Disasters of the Celestial Being

Lazy Qi: 0

"What is all this!" Zhou Bai was completely confused by the things appearing in his mind, and the large iron door in front of him had already been broken open, with a thick white arm reaching in, causing the door to creak and groan, as if it could be broken at any moment.

The woman's voice came again, "What's wrong? What did you see? Is this thing useful?"

"Useful my ass!" Zhou Bai quickly described what he saw, panicking, "What do I do next?"

The woman's voice said, "Degree of Daoization is your realm, Yuan Shen Value is your strength, the Divine Map is your cultivation method, but what is this Lazy Qi? Let me check the user manual..."

Zhou Bai, watching the wobbling iron door and hearing the continuous roars, was sweating profusely, "Are you kidding? There's no time to read a user manual now!"

The woman's voice said, "There's no explanation for Lazy Qi here... Try focusing your mind on those words."

Zhou Bai tried to focus on the Lazy Qi, and a series of information appeared in his mind.

"Laziness is a human nature, but if everyone can turn laziness into a treasure, it can protect our human race and ensure eternal progress.

This is the first disaster of the Nine Disasters of the Celestial Being, Laziness. By absorbing Lazy Qi, you can enhance your cultivation.

Methods to obtain Lazy Qi, example 1: Lie down... Other methods are too lazy to mention.

Zhou Bai: "???"

The woman's voice asked, "How is it? Do you have a plan?"

Zhou Bai described what he saw, and the woman quickly said, "What are you waiting for! Lie down! Remember to increase your Yuan Shen Value first, that's your strength. Degree of Daoization is your realm, you can't use it for battle now."

Although Zhou Bai was full of doubts, he obediently lay down, seeing the iron door in front of him being continuously hit and about to collapse.

As he lay on the ground, the number representing Lazy Qi in his mind started to increase.

Lazy Qi +1

Lazy Qi +1

Lazy Qi +1

On average, he gained one point of Lazy Qi per second, quickly reaching 10 points.

As the Lazy Qi increased, the Degree of Daoization and Yuan Shen Value also showed plus signs.

Zhou Bai, remembering what the woman said, focused his mind on the plus sign after the Yuan Shen Value. After a moment, the value, which was originally 0, jumped to 1, and the Lazy Qi decreased by one point.

At the same time, Zhou Bai felt a loud boom in his head, and an indescribable, mysterious, and inexplicable force spread from his head and then retracted.

Zhou Bai suddenly screamed and sat up.
