Cultivation System: All I Want Is To Fail My Mission! - Chapter 33
Chapter 33: Training in the Snow Field
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As for how to cultivate through the cold… Jiang Yu pondered for a moment and began to take off his clothes.
He could not feel the cold while he wore so many layers of clothing, so naturally, he could not cultivate well.
However, as soon as he took off his coat, Jiang Yu felt a bone-piercing cold. He immediately wanted to put his coat back on.
This was too cold. If he cultivated like this, he would be frozen into a popsicle first!
[Host, don’t worry. I won’t let you freeze into a popsicle. I will save you before you freeze into one.]
Yo ho, this system actually knows how to save people? Jiang Yu felt that it was incredible that it felt almost like an imposter.
“Why weren’t you kind before?”Jiang Yu deliberately asked back, obviously not believing its words.
If it could save him, it would be good enough if she didn’t harm him in the first place!
[The previous missions didn’t involve life-threatening situations, so of course I didn’t need to save you.] The System said matter-of-factly, [You didn’t need to cultivate in such a dangerous environment before, but it’s different this time. The cold will freeze you to death.]
‘Then why did it issue such a mission!’ Jiang Yu muttered in his heart, but he also expressed his understanding.
He had read about cultivation in cultivation novels before. There were cases of cultivation in cold and freezing weather. This was indeed a way to increase one’s cultivation.
“I hope you mean what you say.” Jiang Yu took off his last shirt and started cultivating.
The cold wind was bone-piercing. Jiang Yu instantly felt that his body was already numb, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
As time passed, he felt the temperature of his body drop. His skin was even hurting from the cold, and purple veins had already appeared on his arms.
If he did not break through soon, he would really be frozen into an ice human.
However, the final result of his mission was a failure.
The system hurriedly urged, [Hurry up and eat the Body Tempering Pill. Otherwise, your life will be in danger!]
‘If my life is in danger, don’t you know how to save people?!’ Jiang Yu shouted in his heart, but he still took out the Body Tempering Pill from his spirit pouch before his body froze and swallowed it.
The moment the pill entered his stomach, he felt a wave of high heat in his gut that quickly spread to his entire body. Even his fingers became very hot.
Jiang Yu almost couldn’t withstand the alternating cold and heat.
[Hey, hey, hey! Host, don’t faint! If you want to sleep, you have to get into the RV before then. Otherwise, no one would know if you are frozen into ice in the snow!]
The system kept muttering in his mind, and Jiang Yu only had one thought.
Didn’t it say that it would save him? Why did he have to return to the RV by himself now?!
“Do you still remember what you said?”Jiang Yu said through chattering teeth, “You say you’ll help me!”
His hands and feet were frozen stiff, and Jiang Yu felt that he couldn’t exert any strength at all. However, if he didn’t exert any strength, he might freeze to death here.
Absolutely not! He still had his father to save.
Although he did not want to inherit the family business, it was his father’s life’s work. Even if he did not want to inherit it, he had to protect it well!
Jiang Yu didn’t know where he got the strength from, but he slowly climbed into the RV.
At the same time, the heat in his body spread to every part of his body, covering up all the coldness.
Jiang Yu couldn’t withstand the extreme impact of ice and fire and fell asleep.
However, the system heaved a sigh of relief.
‘Life is saved by the man himself,’ Jiang cursed in his heart before slowly succumbing to the darkness.
Even the system’s words could not be trusted completely!
…
Jiang Yu woke up with a ringing phone.
When he heard the familiar ringtone, the first thing that went through his mind was, ‘Isn’t there no signal in the mountains? How could I still receive a call?’
Before he could regain consciousness, his hand moved first to take the call.
When he heard a familiar voice, Jiang Yu finally woke up.
Why was his father calling?
“Son, where are you now? I went to the villa to look for you, but the butler said you went out.”
What was that? He actually came to the villa!
Jiang Yu was anxious and angry, not knowing what to say for a moment.
“Dad, recently… You shouldn’t have walked around so carelessly. You’re not in good health. I’m scared something will happen to you.”
His father probably did not want him to know that he had been attacked.
Jiang Yu didn’t tell him what the butler had told him. He only told him to be careful.
Father Jiang was very gratified when he heard this.
His son knew how to care about him, so he didn’t think about anything else.
“I’m fine. But where are you now? Not in the mountains I presume?” If he wasn’t in the villa, did he go to the city, or did he go into the mountains? If he went up the mountain, did his son encounter any animals like bears?
Knowing that his father was concerned about him, Jiang Yu didn’t say anything worrying. He just gave his father a vague reply, “I’m on the mountain. Don’t worry. There are no bears. It’s very safe.”
The butler must have told his father about him going out! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked so precisely.
“If that’s the case, then I can rest assured.” Father Jiang said softly. Despite what he said, he did not seem to be at ease.
Jiang Yu knew that he was still worried.
How could a father not worry about his child? Jiang Yu didn’t say anything else. He only reminded his father to take care of himself before hanging up the phone.
No matter how many times he said it, his father would still worry about him.
In his father’s eyes, he was always a child who needed to be protected.
A year later, when he was strong enough, he would prove to his father that he did not need to be protected all the time!
Putting down his phone, Jiang Yu looked at his surroundings.
He was in the RV. He recalled what the System had said before he fainted.
“Explain to me, what exactly is going on? Didn’t you say that you would save me?” Jiang Yu asked threateningly.
Why did he crawl back to the RV alone?
[I’ve already saved you by reminding you to eat the Body Tempering Pill!] The system hurriedly defended itself, [Besides, I don’t have a physical body, so I definitely can’t move your body.]
‘What kind of rescue was that? It was a matter of glib talk!’
That was fine.
“The Body Tempering Pill is too powerful. Aren’t you afraid I’ll explode and die after eating it?”
Jiang Yu thought he didn’t have much to consume, so why did he have such a big reaction?
[Who told you to eat so much?] The system snorted coldly, [With your current cultivation, the Body Refinement Pill won’t affect your body unless you eat a lot.]
He had eaten less than ten pills, what more?
“It’s not my fault,” Jiang Yu retorted, “There must be something wrong with your method! The way to save me is not just to eat Body Tempering Pills, right?”
[You can only buy Body Tempering Pills now.]
Alright, it had nothing to say. In short, he was still too weak.
Jiang Yu stopped bickering with the system and checked his body’s condition. He found that his body was severely affected by the cold.
After the power of the Body Refinement Pill faded, his body felt an extreme chill.
If this continued, he would catch a cold.
Therefore, Jiang Yu consumed another Body Tempering Pill.
He didn’t feel anything.
He simply took a few more pills and finally felt his body slowly heating up and feeling warm, so he didn’t continue taking them.
But this time, Jiang Yu did not show any signs of fainting.
