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

311: I have my own way.It was not difficult to see that these figures were all Cultivators from the Five Regions of the Human Race. Most were already gray-haired and aged in appearance; it was clear their Lifespan was nearing its end. It was no wonder they had run to the depths of the Heavenly Abyss; they were simply unwilling to die just like that and wanted to make one last desperate attempt before death.

What felt eerie was that although these Human Race Cultivators had never practiced Buddhist Divine Ability, they now displayed an expression of boundless piety, hands pressed together, softly chanting the name of Buddha with eyes tightly closed.

”This must be the trial left behind by Li Qingyuan’s Legacy...”

”Is this an illusion?” Baize asked softly, then his gaze fell upon the figures of these Cultivators, and he couldn’t help but sneer.

It was unclear where these people got their courage; truly, those on the verge of death are bold.

What kind of existence was Li Qingyuan!

The Legacy he left behind was not something ordinary people could lay their hands on. Fortunately, this was a Buddhist Legacy; if it had been a Demonic Sect one, these people would have long since died without even a trace of slag remaining.

Shen Nian did not speak; he merely swept a glance over the backs of the crowd, his gaze finally landing on the dilapidated temple.

Through the temple gate, one could faintly see a half-faced Buddha statue inside.

The damaged ancient temple exuded an aura of ancient times. In the very center stood a broken Buddha statue, and one could also see a Rakshasa scimitar stuck straight into the ground in front of the statue. This combination somehow didn’t make one feel the slightest bit of incongruity.

The next second.

Just as Shen Nian’s figure was preparing to move, he heard Baize’s voice ring out.

”Kid, don’t blame me for not warning you. Buddhism emphasizes Zen practices. You have never cultivated Buddhist Dharma, so if you rush into the illusion like this, the result will likely be the same as these people—trapped in the illusion, unable to extricate yourself...”

”Moreover, this was left by that monster Li Qingyuan, who practiced both Buddhism and Demonic arts; I fear it is quite different from ordinary Buddhist trials.”

”Of course, it’s not completely impossible to pass...”

”Unless you are a one-in-ten-thousand Buddhist Prodigy who grasps Zen practices instantly, or have an expert’s guidance...” Baize looked at Shen Nian and said, his tone carrying a hint of a smile, as if to say, ’So there is something you can’t do, huh? Why don’t you beg me? If you beg me, I have a way to let you pass through this illusion.’

However, Shen Nian ignored him and instead turned his head to look at Jun Fengyan. ”Your Physique should have recovered quite a bit. If you are willing, you can try it; if you are unwilling, just wait for me on the side...”

Upon hearing this, Jun Fengyan glanced at the figures in the distance and then shook her head.

”Senior... Senior Brother, I won’t go. I have learned quite a few Buddhist Divine Abilities left behind by the Great Thunder Sound Temple; that is already enough...”

Since she began to Cultivate, Divine Ability and Cultivation Techniques had constantly emerged in her Divine Soul for her to practice. They were all first-class, peerless Divine Abilities, so she did not have much need for Secret Manuals.

Shen Nian just gave her a deep look, feeling moved in his heart.

As expected of a fated female protagonist with a background; her foundation is truly solid!

Meanwhile, the slightly lonely Teng Xi felt very superfluous. The only one in the Yao Race who studied Buddhist Dharma was the Qing Qiu Old Ancestor; this ruin was of no use to her, but just as she wanted to speak...

The next second!

Just as Shen Nian was planning to step forward, a figure suddenly appeared on his shoulder—it was none other than Baize.

”You really want to go?”

”Buddhist wisdom roots are similar to Comprehension Ability but different. You have never come into contact with them, so you won’t be able to pass,” Baize reminded him.

Shen Nian spoke softly, ”I have my own way.”

”??” Baize was instantly stunned. Your own way?

Stop joking, alright!

This is Li Qingyuan’s ruin; what kind of way could you possibly have to pass!

Swoosh!

Shen Nian stepped in front of the dilapidated temple, and his figure immediately froze in place.

”Still ’your own way’, I’d like to see what your way is.”

”Sigh, if you don’t listen to your Senior, you’ll suffer...” Baize jumped into Jun Fengyan’s arms and shook his head helplessly, his gaze fixed tightly on Shen Nian. Although he said that, he still hoped in his heart that nothing would happen to Shen Nian.

After all, it is very difficult in this era to produce such a Prodigy; they are the hope and the future.

At the same time.

Behind the dilapidated temple, two figures stood opposite each other.

”amitabha. Benefactor Luo, being able to walk out of the illusion a step faster than This poor monk shows you have a predestined relationship with our Buddha. Why not join our Buddhist sect?” Worry-free smiled, two ancient Sanskrit characters rotating in his eyes, faintly revealing excitement. He pressed his hands together, his palms gathering a supreme Buddhist conversion Divine Ability.

He never expected that this usually low-key successor of the White Jade Capital would actually have higher Comprehension Ability in Buddhist Dharma than himself!

Isn’t this the peerless Prodigy he was looking for!

And the other party is from the Daoist sect; if he could convert her, wouldn’t that be amazing?

Opposite him.

Luo Xuanyin swept a glance with a calm expression and said nothing, as if the other party couldn’t pique the slightest interest in her. Then, she slowly turned her head and happened to see Shen Nian stepping into the illusion.

”There is the aura of Fuyao...”

”Is he Shen Nian?”

Luo Xuanyin saw at a glance that Shen Nian still carried the dao rhyme of Ning Fuyao, recognizing his identity.

”amitabha. Unexpectedly, the Head of the Shen Family is also interested in Buddhist Dharma; truly, Heaven blesses the Buddhist sect...”

”Benefactor Luo, in what way do you think Benefactor Shen will walk out of the illusion, and how long will it take?”

Worry-free walked up shamelessly and asked with a chuckle, but in his heart, he felt it was a question whether Shen Nian could even pass this trial, as things like wisdom roots and Comprehension Ability were hard to define.

...

Inside the illusion.

There was a Dynasty named the True Virtue Dynasty. This Dynasty was not large, only half the size of the Great Xia in the Lower Realm, but the commoners and Mortals here were exceptionally powerful. A three-year-old child could lift a hundred catties of iron, and adult men were even more fierce, capable of carrying mountains on their backs.

Most importantly, the Lifespan of the people here was extremely long. But the only thing that felt eerie was that the people here didn’t quite look like humans; they had sharp teeth, fingernails like blades and swords, and some even had scales covering their bodies. Moreover, their personalities were irritable; from commoners to royalty, all were addicted to slaughter, and there were even many instances of cannibalism.

”These people don’t look much like Demons; they have a bit of the Yao Race’s shadow...” Shen Nian stood on the street, watching the crowds come and go, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He had considered that Li Qingyuan was both Buddha and Demon, so he wouldn’t have been surprised to see the shadow of Demons in the illusion, but he hadn’t expected it to be the Yao Race...

And what was most ridiculous was that the people here all considered themselves believers of Buddha, revering Buddhist Dharma. From time to time, monks would enter the world to preach, and not only did they not stop this situation, but they even encouraged it.

This meant that when Shen Nian pulled a few passersby on the street to ask, they immediately spoke with great eloquence, claiming their ancestors had passed down the belief: ”The True Buddha is compassionate and cannot bear to see all living beings suffer, so He exerts great power; for flesh and blood are weak, and slaughter brings eternal life...”

He also incidentally asked about the Holy Land of this Dynasty, the Heavenly Moon Temple!

Shen Nian walked through the True Virtue Dynasty, watching scenes that were extremely eerie. Along with him were many members of the Human Race also heading to the Heavenly Moon Temple for pilgrimage.

The only difference was that these people went with three bows and nine kowtows, while he went by stepping through the Void Realm.

Land of Sumeru, ancient temple.

Golden light filled the sky, and three large characters filled with Buddhist intent rotated: Heavenly Moon Temple.
