I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

96: Lu Ya was stunned when Lu Ya tried to forcefully break down the Bodhi mother tree!“For no good reason, everyone said they wanted to look around. Look, there’s nothing but trees here!”

“What’s there to see?”

“Are bodhi fruit not good enough?”

Lin Qingyue felt there was some truth to his words and asked, looking ahead, “So you mean?”

“Hehe.” Murong Chen’s eyebrows twitched upwards, and he nudged Lin Qingyue with his elbow, smiling meaningfully. “Brother Lin, you’re being too formal. Open your mind. Think about Brother Shen’s prime age, and coupled with that flirtatious woman just now, who wouldn’t get hot-headed?”

“Although Brother Shen looks down on that woman, his two Junior Sisters… are both top-notch! No worse than my sister!”

Finally, Murong Chen leaned close to his ear and whispered, “This ancient forest is quiet and secluded, it’s a great place to vent one’s frustrations…”

“Huh??” Lin Qingyue was slightly startled, his expression turning a bit strange. He naturally understood what Murong Chen meant and couldn’t help but think about his behavior in the Heavenly Sword Sect over the years, slowly shaking his head, “Not very likely. Junior Brother Shen has a cold personality; he doesn’t seem like the type to do such things…”

Murong Chen clicked his tongue. “Tsk tsk tsk, that’s why I said Brother Lin hasn’t opened his mind. Brother Shen may be cold, but he’s still a young man. Plus, his two Junior Sisters, where have they seen such a handsome and Prodigy? I think their hearts have long been secretly given to him. If a woman truly likes a man, she will definitely be very proactive, especially with two beauties. Hahaha, you know what I mean…”

Then, his tone changed, and he stated confidently:

“And when I mentioned introducing my sister to Brother Shen earlier, Xiao Qinger’s gaze at me was full of jealousy. She thought I didn’t see it, but I was just pretending not to!”

After hearing this, Lin Qingyue fell into deep thought, finding some truth in it. He couldn’t help but recall a graceful figure and softly asked, “Will a woman really be very proactive if she likes a man…?”

Murong Chen was startled by Lin Qingyue’s expression, then smiled, “What, Brother Lin, have you fallen for someone?”

“Let me tell you, being a simp leads to a dead end, don’t be foolish!!”

“No!” Lin Qingyue panicked internally and said with feigned determination, “I, Lin Qingyue, will never be a simp in this life!”

“Haha…” Murong Chen was about to continue speaking when he heard Liu Huihui coldly interject, “Do you enjoy gossiping behind people’s backs so much? Should I tell Fellow Daoist Shen later?”

“…” Murong Chen immediately wilted and buried his head, continuing to pick bodhi fruit.

Lin Qingyue also continued to pick bodhi fruit, but a hint of melancholy appeared in the depths of his eyes.

...

Inside the cave where the Bodhi Mother Tree is located.

“Where are the people?”

Shen Nian looked at the bodhi fruit core not far away, and the lingering spiritual energy fluctuations of Underworld Power in the air, but the place was empty, causing him to frown slightly.

The next second.

“This is…” Shen Nian was slightly startled as he looked at a small golden tree not far away.

This small golden tree, less than six inches tall, exuded an incredibly ancient aura, even older than the towering giant trees outside. Upon closer inspection, its roots were covered with dense divine patterns slowly rotating, revealing a sacred aura.

“Ancient Bodhi Divine Tree?”

Shen Nian searched through his memories and finally remembered, his expression slightly changing.

“No!”

“It doesn’t quite look like it…”

In his memory, he had seen one when he was young, but that one was much larger than the one in front of him, and it looked somewhat different. That thing seemed to be called the Ancient Bodhi Divine Tree, and it was far more precious than any thousand-year bodhi fruit, because it could nurture a Bodhi Heart, which was a divine item for forging a dao palace in the Void Returning Realm, capable of elevating the dao palace by an entire level!

This is a good thing!

Never mind if it is or not, it just needs to look similar!

Take it first. Even if he doesn’t need it himself, he can give it to his Junior Sisters to improve their strength. In Shen Nian’s eyes, preaching value comes first, other Heaven And Earth Treasures second. As for forging a dao palace, he should already be back at the Shen Family by then. Would he still lack these trivial things?

Without thinking, Shen Nian walked forward, and a large hand passed through the golden light, touching the body of the Bodhi Mother Tree.

Inside the Bodhi Mother Tree at this moment, there was a palm-sized golden-haired, golden-browed little girl with branches growing all over her head. She first let out a scoff, then rubbed her head.

“Hehe, another Human Race boy who overestimates himself. How laughable. I have been rooted here for tens of thousands of years, and no one has been able to shake me. Yet you still dream of subduing me?”

“Hmm, wait, it seems it was hundreds of thousands of years. How long exactly… Never mind, I’m old and can’t remember clearly…”

This golden-haired child was the Bodhi Mother Tree Spirit.

The next second, the Bodhi Mother Tree Spirit felt Shen Nian touching its body, revealing an indifferent expression.

Over the years, it had encountered many people like Shen Nian.

Every single one of them, who could shake it?

Its roots were connected to the entire Ancient Bodhi Tree Forest. To pull it out would be to uproot the entire hundred-mile radius.

Just overestimating themselves…

As expected!

With a bang!

Crushed stones fell.

Shen Nian gripped the Bodhi Mother Tree tightly, but even using three-tenths of his strength, he couldn’t budge it, which surprised him a little.

Suddenly, a mocking voice sounded.

Shen Nian looked down and saw a small golden girl on a golden leaf of the Bodhi Mother Tree, lying there with her legs crossed and a hint of mockery on her lips.

“Hehe, can’t pull it, can you? That dark figure from before had better taste…”

Hearing this, Shen Nian raised an eyebrow. It was his first time being looked down upon by a tree spirit.

He extended his other hand, and both hands clasped around the Bodhi Mother Tree’s trunk. At his chest, Chaos divine patterns were already rotating…

“Oh?”

“Trying to force it?”

“Such a hard head?”

The Bodhi Mother Tree Spirit, lying on the golden leaf, narrowed its eyes and chuckled.

Although its memory wasn’t great, it could still recall some things. Over the years, many people who entered here had designs on it, but no one had ever succeeded.

Among them were even some auras that made it fearful.

But that certainly didn’t include this young man in front of it.

However, as it laughed, the Bodhi Mother Tree Spirit couldn’t laugh anymore. As the entire cave began to shake, its eyes were filled with deep shock and disbelief.

Boom!

Shen Nian unleashed his Chaos Indestructible Power, silver light swirled in his eyes, and a terrifying aura emanated from his entire body. His flesh and blood power was mobilized to the extreme, and at the same time, the Sword Prison Chaos Dharma Idol appeared behind him, going all out!

“What are you doing?”

“How can you be so strong!!!” the Bodhi Mother Tree Spirit exclaimed. The next moment, its eyes filled with terror, a sense of being pulled away surged through its heart, and it cried out in panic, “No, you can’t, stop quickly!!!”

Boom!

Shen Nian exerted a sudden force.

Whoosh!

The Bodhi Mother Tree, which had stood here for hundreds of thousands of years, was uprooted. The countless golden roots contracted at a terrifying speed. Shen Nian didn’t bother to watch the process and directly threw the dumbfounded Bodhi Mother Tree into the cangtian token.

“Where is this?”

“Bad guy!!”

“Where did you take me? Is this still Eastern Profound Star??”

In the quiet space of the cangtian token, its shouts echoed, but the next second, a gaze swept over, and the Bodhi Mother Tree Spirit instantly felt as if struck by lightning, its face turning pale.

So terrifying!!

Mommy, I want to go home!!

Inside the cave, Shen Nian acted so quickly because he sensed a familiar aura approaching. Then, his figure moved and disappeared from the spot.

Three breaths later.

Lu Ya walked over, holding a freshly picked bodhi fruit. His injuries had mostly recovered, and a happy smile was on his face.

“Hmm…”

“Although the Nine Nethers Underworld Emperor said it’s unlikely, I still want to try. Once my injuries are fully healed, I must take this Bodhi Mother Tree into my possession!!”

“I have plenty of time!” Lu Ya thought this, and his mood couldn’t help but become cheerful.

But the next second, after walking deeper into the cave, Lu Ya looked at the empty space in front of him, with only a dark, gaping hole, and was instantly dumbfounded.

“Where’s the tree?”

“Where’s my tree??!”

“Senior Jiu You, the tree is gone!!”

Old Man Jiu You, who was inside his body, had fallen into a deep sleep. The battle with Shen Nian had consumed too much of his energy, and he needed to recover, so he couldn’t hear Lu Ya’s words at all.

Lu Ya immediately became anxious like an ant on a hot pan, searching everywhere. He lay on the spot where the Bodhi Mother Tree had been, burying his head in the dark hole, anxiously peering around.

Just then, a voice sounded in his ear.

“What are you looking for?”

“Go away, it’s nothing!” Lu Ya said impatiently, his mind filled with the golden Bodhi Mother Tree.

At this moment, if someone bothered him, he would certainly be displeased!

Wait!

This voice is wrong!

Lu Ya turned his head and saw a familiar face smiling at him. His backside instantly tightened, and he almost fell in.

“Shen… Shen Nian??”
