Imagine a world where cultivation is automated, but the system has a mind of its own. In Explosive Latte's *I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation*, Pei Ling just wants a quiet life. Unfortunately, fate, in the form of the Smart Cultivation System, has other plans. Suddenly, Pei Ling's cautious existence is upended. The system cheerfully announces its presence and begins optimizing his cultivation, starting with the Bone Forging Art. Need pills? No problem, the system "acquires" them. The catch? Pei Ling loses control of his body while the system cultivates. Initially, this leads to rapid growth and power. Pei Ling envisions a future as a deity. But then the system decides he needs to cultivate a mysterious dual cultivation method. And what's a dual cultivation method without a partner? Before he can protest, the system is off finding him one, leading to…unforeseen and potentially scandalous situations. The humor in *I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation* comes from the contrast between Pei Ling's desire for a low-key life and the system's aggressive, often morally questionable, methods. It's a story about unintended consequences, the loss of control, and the absurdity of automated self-improvement. If you enjoy cultivation novels with a heavy dose of humor and a protagonist constantly battling his own overpowered AI, this might be your next favorite read.
