The Cultivation System Tells Me to Grind, I Choose to Slack

Office worker Jiang Yu pulls an all-nighter to finish a proposal, then wakes up to find himself in a cultivation world, bound to the [Heaven's Way Diligence System]. The system constantly issues crazy tasks: wake up at 3 AM to meditate, train hard in cultivation techniques, compete for secret realm opportunities, and battle geniuses to be number one. Completing tasks brings generous rewards, while slacking off incurs punishment. Jiang Yu: In my last life, I was already sick of the 996 grind; in this life, I'm still working overtime for cultivation? No way. System: [Warning! Refusing task, lightning punishment countdown!] Jiang Yu lies down under a tree, slacks off, roasts sweet potatoes on the back mountain, plays with monkeys, and chats idly. Unexpectedly, the system glitches—refusing the grind tasks triggers hidden slacker rewards. While others meditate for a year to reach Qi Refining Layer 3, he sleeps and his cultivation skyrockets; while others fight desperately for spirit herbs, he sits under a tree eating melons and watching the show, passively comprehending supreme mental techniques. The whole sect thinks he's a hopeless waste, until the sect competition, where Jiang Yu casually waves his hand and sends the genius prodigies flying out of the arena. The system is stunned: Wait, how are you invincible even while lying flat? — Description from novelcodex.org
