Chapter 252: A New Approach
One month later, Li Xiaojun had killed all the True Immortal Beasts at the early stage.
However, with the deaths of over a dozen True Immortal Beasts at the early stage, the situation was finally discovered by the beast tribe.
“What? Qifeng and the others have all gone missing? What on earth happened?”
At the center of the secret realm, on a Floating Island suspended in the air, a True Immortal Beast at the late stage looked extremely shocked.
“My Lord, a few days ago I went to look for Qifeng and found him missing. After that, I searched for Kunyu and Qinghe, and discovered that they had all disappeared…”
“What should we do, Lord Qiongqi?”
Hearing this, the True Immortal Beast, referred to as Lord Qiongqi, fell into deep thought.
To be honest, even he could not make over a dozen True Immortal Beasts at the early stage disappear without a trace.
Faced with the sudden disappearance of his subordinates, Qiongqi felt a shadow cast over his mind.
“We should stay together and not separate. If we face an enemy, we can respond together,” Qiongqi said to the two mid-Golden Immortal beasts.
“Understood, Lord Qiongqi.”
Upon hearing Qiongqi’s command to stay, the two beasts felt an immense relief.
They had no confidence against an enemy that could silently make over a dozen True Immortal Beasts vanish, so staying with Lord Qiongqi was undoubtedly much safer.
“You two, follow me. I will take you to a place,” Qiongqi instructed his two subordinates.
Soon, Qiongqi led the two beasts to a teleportation array.
When they arrived, Qiongqi activated the teleportation array.
“Step up.”
The three beasts stood on the teleportation array, and Qiongqi immediately initiated the teleportation.
In a moment, the three beasts vanished within the array.
Not long after the three beasts disappeared, the teleportation array began to crumble.
Six months later.
Li Xiaojun had almost searched the entire secret realm but still had not discovered the last three True Immortal Beasts.
This made him understand that the remaining three True Immortal Beasts must be hiding.
If the beasts possessed an immortal formation, his divine sense searching for them would be like finding a needle in the sea.
“If only I had killed the True Immortal Beasts at the late stage first!” Li Xiaojun lamented.
However, if he had started with the True Immortal Beasts at the late stage, even if he had managed to kill them, the other beasts would surely have hidden away.
Just like now, Li Xiaojun not only hadn’t found the hiding three True Immortal Beasts, but many other Immortal beasts were also hiding away.
All the beasts knew that an invincible and powerful enemy had emerged in adversity, and they naturally sought ways to conceal themselves.
This situation left Li Xiaojun feeling quite frustrated.
He thought that his strength could eliminate all the beast tribe creatures in the secret realm.
However, under the circumstances where most beasts chose to hide, he found himself at a loss, just like in the Immortal Realm where even though the beast tribe had Golden Immortal ancestors, exterminating the hidden Human Race was incredibly difficult.
Li Xiaojun never expected things would end up like this.
In this situation, his plan to unify the secret realm and make the Daizong Secret Realm fully controlled by the Human Race seemed impossible to fulfill.
Because if he emerged now to rally the Human Race to dominate the entire secret realm, it would be fine while he was present, but if he were absent, the entire Human Race would face a catastrophic disaster.
He was indeed powerful, but the whole Human Race was too weak, weak enough that just one Human Immortal Realm Beast could cause significant losses.
Moreover, the beasts were simply lying in wait; they were not all dead.
One day, feeling somewhat frustrated, Li Xiaojun returned to the volcanic crater near Fire Beacon City.
“Dad, you’re back.”
As soon as Li Xiaojun arrived at the volcanic crater, Hua Rumeng and Chu Qiaoxi noticed him.
“Yeah, I’m back,” Li Xiaojun nodded.
“Dad, we set up a base on the other side of the volcanic crater. Would you like to come and visit?” Hua Rumeng invited Li Xiaojun into the formation.
“Sure,” Li Xiaojun agreed with a nod.
Soon, Li Xiaojun followed Hua Rumeng and Chu Qiaoxi into the formation they had set up.
The formation arranged by Chu Qiaoxi and Hua Rumeng was just on the other side of the volcanic crater, almost a barrier away from Fire Beacon City.
After entering the formation, Li Xiaojun noticed that, besides Hua Rumeng and Chu Qiaoxi, there were many people present.
“Dad, these are the people we’ve taken in recently…” Hua Rumeng introduced Li Xiaojun.
It turned out that after Li Xiaojun left, Hua Rumeng and Chu Qiaoxi had set up an immortal formation on the other side of the volcanic crater.
Once the formation was completed, the next step was to gather people.
Unfortunately, with Fire Beacon City right across, Chu Qiaoxi and Hua Rumeng had to put in a lot of effort to gather just a few hundred people.
After these few hundred joined, they built a small village within the formation.
Building a city was impossible with so few people.
“Dad, were you successful?” Hua Rumeng asked Li Xiaojun.
“No,” Li Xiaojun shook his head.
If he had been successful, he wouldn’t be feeling so frustrated.
Then, Li Xiaojun explained to his two daughters the situation he encountered.
“Dad, do you mean you want to establish a major force for the Human Race but are afraid the beasts might launch sneak attacks?” Hua Rumeng asked.
“Pretty much,” Li Xiaojun nodded.
However, after hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Hua Rumeng asked, “Dad, are you sure that your strength can kill the strongest True Immortal Beast at the late stage in the Daizong Secret Realm?”
“I should be able to,” Li Xiaojun nodded.
Seeing Li Xiaojun nod, Hua Rumeng smiled widely.
“Dad, I think you are completely stuck in a thought trap.”
“What do you mean?” Li Xiaojun was surprised.
“Dad, you can definitely unify the secret realm for the Human Race. As long as you remain at the forefront during adversity, I believe the beast tribe won’t dare to emerge.”
“What if I’m not around? I can’t stay in the secret realm forever,” Li Xiaojun shook his head.
Hua Rumeng quickly said, “Dad, you can consider this from a different angle. Establishing the Human Race force doesn’t have to be solely about opposing the beast tribe. We can also gather abundant resources from the secret realm.”
“As long as you are in the secret realm, the beast tribe will not dare to act against our Human Race. In this way, we can acquire more resources.
Even if one day you’re not here, we can simply retreat again if necessary. The beast tribe can hide, and so can we, plus we, as the Human Race, are different from the beast tribe. They can only hide, while we can leave the secret realm anytime.”
“Moreover, I believe that even if you’re not in the secret realm, the beast tribe wouldn’t dare to hunt down our Human Race entirely because you can still enter the secret realm after a hundred years. I think as long as the upper echelons of the beast tribe want to survive, they won’t dare to do that.”
After pausing for a moment, Hua Rumeng added, “So, Dad, you don’t need to worry about what the beasts will do. You just need to step up and call out, and the Human Race will quickly unite around you. Then, we can secure a territory and develop in peace.”
