Chapter 137: Master, what are you doing?

After hanging up the call with his second daughter, Li Xiaojun fell into deep thought.

He could break through to the human immortal barrier at any moment.

However, he didn’t know whether he would ascend to the Immortal Realm or remain in the Spirit Realm after the breakthrough, and the system wouldn’t provide him with an answer.

So, after breaking through to the human immortal barrier, there were only two possible outcomes for him.

First, he could ascend to the Immortal Realm and live in fear of being hunted by the beast tribe. If caught by the beast tribe, he could very well end up as their slave.

Second, he might not ascend to the Immortal Realm and instead stay in the Spirit Realm.

Li Xiaojun leaned more towards staying in the Spirit Realm, after all, he wouldn’t face any lightning tribulation during his breakthrough.

Since there would be no lightning tribulation, the rules of the Immortal Realm wouldn’t interfere with him.

Thus, it was highly unlikely that he would ascend.

However, he didn’t dare to gamble.

If he did ascend, that would be the end of everything.

He still planned to make a trip back to Earth; if he ascended, there would be no returning.

If only he could confirm whether he would ascend after the breakthrough, unfortunately, the system wouldn’t answer his questions.

That day, Li Yufei contacted Li Xiaojun again!

“Dad, my master asked me to tell you that in the Immortal Realm, the number of the Human Race is only one ten-thousandth of the beast tribe. The most powerful human powerhouse among the Human Race is just a Profound Immortal in the early stage.

Most of the immortals of the Human Race in the Immortal Realm are slaves of the beast tribe, and only a few lucky ones have avoided becoming slaves, but they can only hide in corners, barely surviving…”

“Dad, the Human Race is in a dire situation in the Immortal Realm. My master said that since the beast tribe was the first to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm, they arranged for many regular Beast Immortals to descend to the lower realms, thus supporting the beast tribe in the Spirit Realm to grow, eventually forcing the Human Race into this dire position!

If the Human Race had broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm first, it would have been the Human Race sending their immortals to the lower realms, and perhaps now the entire Immortal Realm would belong to the Human Race.”

“My master said that this situation is something all the Human Race’s predecessors in the Immortal Realm have wanted to change, and it is very urgent.

Many predecessors believe that if the beast tribe continues to develop like this, the Spirit Realm will eventually be ruled by the beast tribe, and at that time, the Human Race will have no footing left, and likely face extinction.”

“Dad, my master also said: you are currently the only hope for changing the Human Race, and perhaps it is because the heavens cannot bear to see it that you appeared among the Human Race. Your mission is to save the Human Race…”

“Dad, my master said that as long as you agree to her request, she is willing to pay any price, even her life.”

……

After learning about Li Xiaojun’s situation, Li Yufei’s master frequently urged Li Yufei to persuade Li Xiaojun.

In her view, Li Xiaojun was almost the only person capable of saving the future of the Human Race!

Firstly, the children Li Xiaojun had could become immortals in the Spirit Realm without having to ascend.

Most importantly, Li Xiaojun could endlessly produce children who could become immortals.

As long as Li Xiaojun was present, even if the Golden Immortals in the Immortal Realm allowed the Beast Immortals to descend, the Human Race would eventually be able to dominate the entire Spirit Realm.

After all, having Golden Immortals let the Beast Immortals descend did not come without a cost; it required a significant price.

However, Li Xiaojun’s children could be limitless, as long as he was willing.

“Feifei, you don’t need to rush me so much; let me think this over properly.”

“Alright, Dad, take your time to think about it. My master said she can provide all the resources for raising children.”

“Is your master not afraid I’ll trick her? I can say I’ve had children even if I haven’t,” Li Xiaojun asked Li Yufei.

Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Li Yufei replied, “My master said she would be willing to give everything without expecting anything in return if there is even a slight chance to change the future of the Human Race from extinction.”

“Okay,” Li Xiaojun nodded.

He contemplated the message from his daughter’s master for more than half a month.

Half a month later, Li Xiaojun found his daughter Li Nianjun, ready to say goodbye.

“Nianjun, Dad has to leave for something,” Li Xiaojun told his daughter.

“Where are you going, Dad?” Li Nianjun quickly asked.

“I have been assigned a mission by the Alliance, and I might not be back for several hundred years,” Li Xiaojun explained.

“Several hundred years?” Li Nianjun nodded. “Then I will wait for you to return after completing the mission.”

Li Nianjun couldn’t persuade Li Xiaojun to stay because he mentioned it was a task arranged by the Alliance.

The Alliance represented the absolute interests of the Human Race, and nobody could defy it.

“Alright, I will be back in several hundred years,” Li Xiaojun assured.

That day, Li Nianjun gathered the Junior Disciples at home to bid farewell to Li Xiaojun.

Although his son-in-law, Chen Bufan, felt regretful, he respectfully saw Li Xiaojun off.

That evening, after saying goodbye to his daughter, son-in-law, and lovely Little Shishi, Li Xiaojun left the villa.

One year later,

Autumn Rain Star.

After asking the system to help him become invisible with his divine sense, Li Xiaojun arrived outside the Empress’s palace.

Six months later, while still outside the Empress’s palace, Li Xiaojun caught Ni Xiaotang, who had returned from other star fields.

Ni Xiaotang, with only the Great Ascension stage of cultivation, was quietly subdued by Li Xiaojun, and her cultivation was sealed.

The communicator on her was also collected into the system space by Li Xiaojun.

“Master, Master, you’re alive?” Ni Xiaotang exclaimed with mixed surprise and joy upon seeing Li Xiaojun!

“Hey? Master, what are you doing? Oh no! Why did you seal my cultivation?”

“Don’t speak, just come with me,” Li Xiaojun said to Ni Xiaotang and quickly led her away from the vicinity of the Empress’s palace.

Finally, Li Xiaojun took Ni Xiaotang deep into a great mountain.

Here, he had set up an immortal tool formation that he exchanged with Tu Shan Yueyue!

This immortal-level formation was composed of three hundred sixty array disks and could be sustained continuously by consuming immortal essence stones.

This formation had powerful defensive abilities, making it difficult even for Late Human Celestials to break through.

Additionally, it could block divine sense probing below the true immortal realm.

Li Xiaojun set up this immortal formation here to evade all divine sense probing.

Even Li Ziwei, who was in the human immortal barrier, wouldn’t be able to discover this place.

“Master, I thought you had been killed by the Beast Immortals. It’s so great that you’re alive. The Empress will surely be very happy when she finds out.”

In a cave dwelling, Ni Xiaotang excitedly said to Li Xiaojun.

This cave dwelling was newly created by Li Xiaojun.

For the next few hundred years, he would be living here.

Once inside the immortal formation, Li Xiaojun unsealed Ni Xiaotang’s cultivation.

In the immortal formation, he didn’t have to worry about her escaping.

To run away from this immortal formation, one would need at least the cultivation level of a human immortal.
