Chapter 469
by fanqienovelChapter 469: United as One
Just as the demon tribe prepared to raid the Immortal Tribes’ superior-grade immortal essence stone vein, Li Xiaojun had already returned to the star field where Li Zixuan was located.
“Dad?”
As soon as Li Xiaojun appeared, Li Zixuan spotted him.
Of course, this was intentional on Li Xiaojun’s part; with his cultivation level, it would be impossible for any daughter to detect him if he didn’t want to be found.
“Zixuan, you’ve grown up so much,” Li Xiaojun said, smiling as he ruffled his daughter’s hair.
Hearing her father’s words and seeing his youthful appearance, tears welled up in Li Zixuan’s eyes.
Whether or not Li Xiaojun manipulated her, or felt deep affection for her, in her eyes, her parents loved her very much, filling her childhood with paternal love and maternal love.
Although she now understood that her parents were acting, she felt no resentment towards this fact.
Moreover, from the group chat, she learned that the resources she had cultivated with since childhood were provided by her parents, even more than many other children of Li Xiaojun.
Given this, what reason did she have to blame her parents?
“Dad, where’s Mom?” Li Zixuan asked Li Xiaojun.
Hearing his daughter’s question, Li Xiaojun smiled. “If you want to see your mom, I can take you to her.”
“Can’t Mom come back to see me?”
“Your mom is busy with important matters in the starry sky.”
“Then, are you planning to stay now?” Li Zixuan asked Li Xiaojun.
“I came to see you, and I have important matters to attend to.”
“Alright then.”
Li Zixuan understood that Li Xiaojun was busy with Transforming Life Planets, so she didn’t insist on her father staying.
“Do you want to go outside and explore a bit?” Li Xiaojun asked his daughter.
Li Xiaojun felt some affection for her, after all, he had raised her since she was little.
Unlike his other children, he had accompanied her in growing up.
Upon hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Li Zixuan shook her head. “Sister Yun already gave me this life planet, and all the Immortal Gate forces here have moved away…”
“Are you talking about Duanmu Yun?” Li Xiaojun asked in surprise.
He hadn’t expected that Li Zixuan had become acquainted with Duanmu Yun.
“Yes! Sister Yun approached me and wanted me to leave with her. When I refused, she said she would give me this planet and made many Immortal Gate forces leave…”
Duanmu Yun acted quickly; from the moment she agreed to give the planet to Li Zixuan to when the other sects took action, it took less than a decade for most of the Immortal Gates to withdraw.
Furthermore, the Tianxuan Immortal Tower was the fastest to evacuate. As soon as they learned about the situation, they promptly moved all their disciples and their families away from Cuori Planet.
Certainly, the reason these Immortal Gate forces evacuated so quickly was primarily because Duanmu Yun promised every sect a life planet as their development territory.
Compared to so many sects crammed together on a single planet, being able to have their own life planet was naturally the choice all the Immortal Gate forces preferred.
Seeing that his daughter was unwilling to leave Cuori Planet, Li Xiaojun did not force her.
He directly transmitted some of the demon essence he had acquired over the past ten years in the demon tribe to Li Zixuan in the system space, and then he left Cuori Planet.
Compared to living here, transforming life planets was much more important.
…
In the blink of an eye, several years passed.
One day, Li Xiaojun received a communication from a woman in the Kunlun Realm.
“Dad, something bad has happened. The demon tribe and the Immortal Tribes have started fighting.”
“What happened?” Li Xiaojun asked his daughter.
Since his daughter said the Immortal Tribes and demon tribe were fighting, it surely wasn’t just a small skirmish.
The Myriad Tribes and the demon tribe had been in conflict since the beginning, never stopping for a moment.
Now that his daughter specifically informed him about the Immortal Tribes and demon tribe fighting, it had to be something serious.
Sure enough.
Hearing Li Xiaojun’s question, his daughter quickly explained, “The demon tribe and the Immortal Tribes have erupted into full-scale war. The seven Da Luo Golden Immortals of the demon tribe suddenly launched a surprise attack on the superior-grade immortal essence stone vein guarded by two Da Luo Golden Immortals from the Immortal Tribes, seriously injuring and forcing the Dragon Tribe and Golden Scale Tribe’s Da Luo Golden Immortals to flee.
Then, the seven Da Luo Golden Immortals of the demon tribe looted most of the superior-grade immortal essence stones from the Immortal Tribes’ mine and also destroyed the entire vein and formations that produced the superior-grade immortal essence stones.
Now, the Myriad Tribes and the demon tribe are in full-scale war. From Da Luo Golden Immortals to ordinary immortals, battles are breaking out everywhere…”
After hearing his daughter’s message, Li Xiaojun fell silent.
Did the demon tribe attack the Immortal Tribes’ superior-grade immortal essence stone vein because he had stolen the demon tribe’s superior-grade immortal essence stone vein?
“If I had known this would happen, I should have looted the Myriad Tribes’ superior-grade immortal essence stone vein too!”
Li Xiaojun sighed with regret.
He didn’t expect the demon tribe, having lost its superior-grade immortal essence stone vein, would turn around and steal the Immortal Tribes’ superior-grade immortal essence stone vein.
If he had known, he should have stolen the Immortal Tribes’ first.
As for the full-scale war between the Immortal Tribes and the demon tribe, Li Xiaojun didn’t feel much about it.
It was like a Chinese person watching people from other countries fight; it had nothing to do with him.
“The full-scale war between the Immortal Tribes and the demon tribe must have affected the Human Race in the Kunlun Realm as well, right?” Li Xiaojun asked his daughter.
“Yes, it has affected us. The Human Race has been forced to participate in this war. We Earth Immortal realm cultivators have all received summon orders for war from above, and I have to go to the battlefield in a few days,” his daughter said to Li Xiaojun.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaojun pondered for a moment and then asked, “Will you withdraw from the Kunlun Realm? If you want to leave, I can teleport you back immediately.”
“No, Dad, we can’t leave.”
“Why?” Li Xiaojun was confused.
“Because you can only bring me back and can’t take my descendants with you. If I leave the Kunlun Realm, perhaps I will be free from life-threatening conditions, but my descendants would be caught in the crossfire. The Immortal Tribes usually punish those who flee in battle by eradicating eighteen tribes…”
Hearing this, Li Xiaojun fell into silence.
“Dad, you should ask the others if they want to leave; I can’t leave anyway,” his daughter said to Li Xiaojun.
After that, the two continued talking for a while before ending the call.
Thinking about how he had stolen the demon tribe’s superior-grade immortal essence stone vein, which led to the war between the Myriad Tribes and the demon tribe, he realized it might involve many of his children.
Suddenly, Li Xiaojun felt a tightness in his heart.
Next, he asked some of his children in the Kunlun Realm if they wanted to evacuate.
However, none of them chose to leave despite Li Xiaojun’s “kindness.”
They all had their own powers and descendants in the Kunlun Realm, and if they left, the Immortal Tribes would see it as fleeing in battle, which would put their descendants at risk.
Such things were unacceptable to them.
Seeing this situation deeply moved Li Xiaojun.
He couldn’t just watch his children go to the battlefield and risk their lives.
So, he decided to do something to help his children through this crisis.
First, Li Xiaojun thought about creating various talismans and crafting powerful immortal tools.
If his children had countless talismans for protection and possessed powerful immortal tools, their chances of surviving the full-scale war between the Myriad Tribes and the demon tribe would greatly increase.
Then, Li Xiaojun had one more unbeatable asset: the system. He could directly teleport his children to his side when they faced life-threatening danger in the Kunlun Realm.
In addition, he could also teleport himself over to help his children out of trouble.
For example, if his children in the Heavenly Immortal Realm were being pursued by powerful True Immortal or Profound Immortal cultivators, he could teleport there directly and eliminate the enemies chasing his children in an instant.
After thinking about it, Li Xiaojun established a new group chat called the Kunlun Realm Support Group.
Then, he added over five hundred of his children who were working hard in the Kunlun Realm to this group.
【Li Xiaojun: A war has broken out in the Kunlun Realm, and it will soon involve all of you. To ensure everyone’s safety, I will be crafting some defense and attack immortal tools for you all.】
【Li Xiaojun: Additionally, I will prepare talismans ranging from True Immortal to Golden Immortal grade for everyone to use when facing danger, which can be activated for protection.】
【Li Xiaojun: Furthermore, when you encounter dangers you cannot handle, please contact me immediately. I will arrange for your evacuation from the Kunlun Realm and will send you back once it is safe. This way, you will not be considered deserters…】
【Li Xiaojun: Also, if you face pursuers from the demon tribe who are two realms higher than you, like Profound Immortal or even Golden Immortal, I will teleport to help you deal with them…】
【……】
Li Xiaojun expressed in the group that he would fully support all his children in the Kunlun Realm.
Seeing Li Xiaojun’s messages, all his children who could not be deserters in the Kunlun Realm became excited.
【Dad, you’re the best!】
【Dad, you’re awesome…】
【Dad, I really… I’m crying…】
【Dad, you are the best dad in the world…】
In the group chat, everyone praised Li Xiaojun.
Li Xiaojun looked at the messages but did not reply.
Next, Li Xiaojun began crafting talismans for everyone.
With time running short, he decided to first produce a batch of Golden Immortal-level defense talismans.
This way, even if his children encountered the demon tribe’s Golden Immortals, they would be able to hold on for a bit.
As long as they could endure for a moment without being instantly killed, he could quickly teleport them back or teleport himself to deal with the situation.
One by one, the Golden Immortal-level talismans were rapidly crafted by Li Xiaojun.
However, soon, Li Xiaojun discovered that after making fewer than two hundred Golden Immortal-level talismans, he had run out of crafting materials.
If he wanted to continue making Golden Immortal-level talismans, he would need to gather more resources.
Of course, Li Xiaojun quickly resolved this situation with just a few sentences.
He mentioned the missing materials in the two groups, and immediately, countless children with resources began sending various materials to him.
Thanks to the efforts of hundreds of thousands of children, Li Xiaojun instantly had enough materials to craft thousands of Golden Immortal-level defense talismans.
Two years later, Li Xiaojun successfully equipped each of his children in the Kunlun Realm with a Golden Immortal-level defense talisman.
Next, Li Xiaojun started to refine weaker Profound Immortal-level defense talismans.
For some of his children with lower strength, the Golden Immortal-level defense talisman was too extravagant.
For instance, if a Heavenly Immortal-level child was being pursued by the True Immortal-level demon tribe, using a Golden Immortal-level defense talisman would be a waste.
So, Li Xiaojun decided to create another batch of Profound Immortal-level defense talismans.
As for the True Immortal-level defense talismans, he didn’t need to make them himself; his children collaborated and collected several thousand to send to their brothers and sisters in the Kunlun Realm.
At this moment, whether in the Kunlun group chat or the close-knit family group, everyone was united, contributing both money and effort.
Even Li Yufei’s teacher, Wen Qinglan, was pulled in to start crafting various talismans.
Additionally, Li Xiaojun connected Li Yufei with the human race’s Golden Immortal Mo Qianqiu from the Immortal Realm of the Milky Way Galaxy, asking him to assist in refining various talismans.
Mo Qianqiu, who had once been saved by Li Xiaojun from a black hole, agreed without hesitation upon hearing Li Xiaojun’s request.
His skills could easily produce a large number of Profound Immortal-level talismans as long as he had the materials.
Moreover, Mo Qianqiu also persuaded other Profound Immortal powerhouses from the Immortal Realm to help in crafting talismans or making one-time-use attack immortal tools, among other things.
At the same time, many of Li Xiaojun’s children in the secret realm were tirelessly refining various defense and attack talismans.
Their idea was simple: when facing the demon tribe, they would shower them with talismans.
Have you ever heard of a talisman rain?
If a single talisman’s power is too weak, then use ten, or a hundred.
Not enough? Then a thousand, or even ten thousand!
With all his children united and contributing money and effort, Li Xiaojun certainly wouldn’t let them do this without compensation.
Every teleportation transaction was monitored by him.
Thus, he decided to take a portion from the resources he had stolen from the demon tribe to compensate his children.
For every item of value his children provided, he would compensate them double its value.
He currently possessed over one hundred billion high-quality immortal essence stones and over one hundred billion worth of superior-grade immortal essence stones.
With so many resources, he only needed to allocate a small portion to adequately compensate for all his children’s contributions.
As Li Xiaojun continuously crafted various talismans and immortal tools, the majority of the human race’s immortals in the Kunlun Realm had already joined the battlefield.
In the face of the full-scale war between the demon tribe and the Immortal Tribes, the human race could not stand idly by.
If the human race dared to remain uninvolved, the Myriad Tribes would surely unite to eliminate them first.
Furthermore, the human race in the Kunlun Realm no longer had any Da Luo Golden Immortals, which meant they were already among the fallen top ten tribes of the Immortal Tribes.
If the human race didn’t comply, a Da Luo Golden Immortal-level beast tribe could easily come to press them, followed by some low-level Beast Immortals to clear them out, resulting in the human race’s extinction.
Thus, to ensure the continuation of their race, the human race had no way to evade this war.
