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

333: Immortal and indestructible, achieving immortality through the physical body!Previous signs had all indicated that this Li Qingyuan was inextricably linked to the Yao Race.

However, he was not very interested in why this number one figure of the Buddhist faith from the Ancient Immortal Era acted this way; he was only concerned that the other party’s behavior within the ruins was extremely strange!

Why did he insist on having Luo Xuanyin fuse with him?

And what was this about the Three Teachings becoming one?

As someone who had been dead for so many years, what exactly was he trying to do?

”It seems the benefactor has a misunderstanding regarding the word ’Yao’...”

”If one defines Yao as something abnormal that violates the rules of the Heavenly Dao and the laws of nature, then does the Human Race’s Cultivation, which goes against the heavens, not also count as a type of Yao?”

”Moreover, the Demon Sealing Sect of the past did not only seal those great Yao in the Mountain and Sea Realm; there were also many from the Human Race, innate spirits...”

”So, Yao are not necessarily all evil...” Li Qingyuan chuckled softly, his hands clasped behind his back, looking less like a monk and more like a schoolteacher.

Upon hearing this, Shen Nian remained expressionless, but the image of an elegant middle-aged man flashed through his mind.

When he was young, someone had said similar words to him.

Some Yao are not Yao, some humans are not human; there are no absolutes...

”Does that have anything to do with you, a Buddhist Cultivator, practicing Yao arts?” Shen Nian snapped back to reality and questioned him sharply.

Li Qingyuan sat cross-legged in mid-air, unconcerned, and gave a thumbs up, saying: ”Benefactor, you are mistaken. This poor monk indeed possesses Demonic Qi, but I am not practicing Yao arts. It is due to my body; to be precise, there is half a demon soul of a great Yao from the Ancient Realm within me...”

As he said this, Li Qingyuan’s pitch-black eyes seemed like black holes, and gradually, a terrifying, boundless shadow began to emerge, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, as if it wanted to tear the heavens and earth apart.

At the same time, he murmured in his heart.

”Sigh, I do not know if the Dao Ancestor’s calculations are accurate. Can an Innate Chaos Body really Cultivate right under the nose of a great Yao from the Ancient Realm...”

”Unless he can be so fast that the great Yao cannot react...”

”But how could that be possible...”

”Not to mention that Luo Xuanyin’s Dao fruit contains the true meaning of the Daoist sect and a significant amount of her immortal essence; even at the fastest speed, it would take over a thousand years to refine it completely. Forget it, This poor monk will do his best. Giving him the sarira will likely help him speed it up a bit...”

At this moment, Shen Nian felt a chill, even though he had only seen that demonic shadow.

But there was a cold glint in his eyes, not out of fear, but of absolute determination and resolve.

Immediately after.

”System, exchange 1000 points of preaching value!”

[Ding! Exchange successful.]

[Simulation starting.]

[Simulation target: Refine the Dao fruit within the body and integrate it into oneself.]

[In the first year, you use Chaos Qi to break open the Dao fruit. The energy contained within, filled with Innate Qi, surges out like an abyss or a sea, and your Chaos Body begins to crazily absorb this Innate Qi...]

Regardless of what Li Qingyuan was actually planning, for the sake of caution, Shen Nian should raise his strength to its Peak.

The main priority was being steady!

”Benefactor?” Li Qingyuan immediately showed a look of surprise, seeing that Shen Nian was motionless.

Could he have been scared?

It was true; the aura of a great Yao from the Ancient Realm would likely cause an ordinary person’s Dao Heart to collapse just by feeling a little bit of it, so being scared was normal...

Immediately after.

”amitabha, Benefactor, do not be nervous. This poor monk has no ill intent. This great Yao...” Before Li Qingyuan could finish his sentence, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he murmured: ”This... what is this operation? How can the refinement and improvement be so fast?”

A terrifyingly boundless Chaos Qi began to permeate, instantly filling the sky, resembling a silver ocean.

”This... this...” Li Qingyuan was a bit stunned.

”Chaos Sea, this is the phenomenon of the Chaos Body entering Minor Achievement. This is too damn fast!” Li Qingyuan couldn’t help but curse, disregarding the issue of breaking religious precepts. He felt that even if his Revered Master were here, he would likely be just as stunned as he was.

”Someone who should be dead but isn’t, this is too unreasonable!”

Even he, a Prodigy from the Ancient Immortal Era, was shocked. Shen Nian’s aura was becoming stronger and stronger; the speed of his improvement could not even be described as outrageous.

In truth, he had only intended to explain the Karma of the matter, to say that he had suppressed this great Yao within his body with his own life. Initially, he had intended to refine and fuse the uncontrollable Buddhist and Demonic powers. His Revered Master had found a dying great Yao of the Ancient Realm for him, and he had intended to use the demon soul to achieve balance, thereby pushing open the Ancient Gate. He had not expected to fail in the end, causing him to almost be refined by this great Yao in return.

But fortunately, he had survived, only to end up in a state of being half-Buddha, half-Yao, and half-Demon, unable to live for long. Unexpectedly, just as a great catastrophe was approaching, Li Qingyuan followed his Revered Master’s order to feign betrayal and infiltrate the great Yao, but he was still exposed. In the end, he exchanged all his strength to take down an immortal king of the Yao Race and perished. Because he had glimpsed the Dao of Fate, a remnant thought survived, and having seen a corner of the future, he had created several ruins.

It was not until he saw Shen Nian and his group that he realized the truth. Initially, he had thought the woman following behind Shen Nian was where the hope lay; the Innate Sacred Body of the Dao Womb recovering against heaven was too unreasonable. But unexpectedly, after taking a look at Shen Nian’s fate, he confirmed the other party.

Someone who should be dead but isn’t!

This was the only variable and the place of hope that his Revered Master had calculated based on the Dao Ancestor’s words. Whenever encountered, he was to do everything in his power to help him achieve the Dao!

That was why Li Qingyuan had schemed against Luo Xuanyin. In this place where the Heavenly Dao was incomplete, the only way to achieve Immortal Ascension was the Three Teachings becoming one, walking the path of the Mortal World, and self-verifying the Dao.

The next second!

[In the five-hundredth year, after you finished refining the Dao fruit, you spent three hundred years condensing the Chaos Fruit, connecting with the Dao of Chaos. Your Chaos Body reached Minor Achievement, becoming undying and indestructible, with your Physical Body achieving Immortality!]

Boom!

The scene above the sky changed drastically. An endless expanse of Chaos appeared, and it seemed as if a river resembling the Milky Way was about to descend. All of this was because of that figure who had already been obscured by the divine light of Chaos; his whole body was covered in chaotic mist, and he seemed to have turned into a cocoon, undergoing Nirvana and Rebirth.

His aura was being restrained, and the entire world of the Thousand Buddha Ruins began to tremble. If he were to erupt, this place would be turned upside down!

”Minor Achievement...”

”This is Body achieving Immortality already?”

”Ah?” Li Qingyuan stared at this phenomenon with shocked eyes, completely stunned. Then, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: ”I’ll risk it. The power contained in my remnant thought is only enough to block the aura exposed by your Body achieving Immortality for ten breaths. If it takes longer, you’ll have to pray for your own luck...”

The next second, Li Qingyuan sat cross-legged, pressed his palms together, and his expression became incredibly devout. Golden lotuses bloomed one after another, and an ancient Buddha statue appeared faintly behind him, half-Buddha and half-Demon. Its appearance was almost identical to Li Qingyuan, but without his current youthful look, instead wearing a face of compassion.

At this very moment.

Below him.

”What happened? Why can’t I see anything anymore?” Murong Chen suddenly looked up.

Wang Damu stared blankly at the sky, as if he had seen this scene somewhere before.
