Several days later.
Among a range of steep, graceful peaks stood a cave hidden deep within the mountains.
Flowers bloomed and willows flourished around the cave, while water burbled nearby.
Lush vines hung down like waterfalls, concealing the entrance completely.
Amid the seemingly ordinary plants and trees lay countless arrays, restrictions, and traps...
Inside the cave.
A magical treasure cushion rested on a flat boulder.
Pei Ling sat cross-legged upon it, bare-chested, his muscles sharply defined. His eyes were tightly shut as he circulated his cultivation method.
The aura around him waxed and waned, shifting unpredictably.
All the Dark Red Patterns left behind when he reached Spirit Transformation began gathering on his back.
A moment later, the Dark Red Patterns had converged into a delicate, beautiful face. Then, as though life had been breathed into it, the face slowly opened its eyes.
After that, it gradually peeled away from Pei Ling's back, transforming into a beautiful, bewitching woman. It was none other than Mo Lilan of Suzhen Heaven!
Only then did Pei Ling realize that the avatar the system had created for him was actually a woman!
And it was even made from the corpse of that female cultivator from Suzhen Heaven!
At that moment, Mo Lilan was completely naked. She reached out, summoned Pei Ling's Storage Pouch, and quickly took out a simply styled black robe, draping it over her shoulders.
Pei Ling's wavering aura gradually stabilized.
After separating the avatar from his body, he was suddenly much weaker.
And there was something strange about this avatar!
Aside from being a woman, she seemed to possess an independent consciousness of her own?
As he wondered about it, Pei Ling heard Mo Lilan speak coolly. "I wonder which Immortal Friend has reincarnated to cultivate anew?"
Immortal Friend?
Pei Ling froze.
