Cultivation: Being Immortal

Chapter 985

Chapter 985: All Occupy Tianbei

Mahayana Star

Li Canghai went to the Heavenly Court to request battle, while the stars of Tiannan continued to prepare for war. The former remaining personnel began to mobilize on a large scale, bringing out their hidden treasures one by one.

The Mahayana Star and Blue Star were working hard to build warships. Before the battle began, Lin Jiang already realized that many warships would be destroyed, so he had placed orders with various factories. After more than half a month of fighting, dozens of Space Battleships had been produced, and now they were working overtime to make more.

The Demon Queen and Li Qing appeared in front of Lin Jiang, and he understood their purpose.

"Taoist Friend Lin Jiang, have you discussed how to divide the seven Buddha stars in the Tianbei Star Domain?"

"Not yet."

"We want to have a share."

The Demon Queen said bluntly; everyone wants a planet, not just the stars of Tianbei, they want them too.

"I understand your thoughts, but it’s difficult."

"We have the strength for this."

"I know. Right now, the Buddhist forces in Tianbei are weak. With the strength of your two families, it is not hard to take a planet. To be honest, if we were to step in, we could take all the planets, but we cannot do that. I don’t need to explain why the spearhead must be careful."

Lin Jiang said that in the Tiannan Star Domain and the Heavenly Court, both the Demon Queen and Li Qing belong to the Blue Star camp, which also includes Liang Long, Lin Ying, and Cao Ying. Now they have taken the Foyin Star, and if they go to seize more planets, it would mean they are standing out too much.

"Canglan, Xuanque, Nanfeng, and Beiyuan, each family occupies one star, and there are still three left."

The Demon Queen still hesitated to give up. There are more than ten planets in the Tiannan Star Domain, but the real power is held by only five families. The other planets are divided among themselves and were taken later from the Buddhist sect.

"Demon Queen, I don’t want to explain further. This matter cannot go on. Although we have six immortals, we are still very weak in the Heavenly Court. These three remaining stars are meant for trading to calm the Tianbei Star Domain."

"Despite their significant loss this time, there is a lot of bitterness. Our Tiannan has reached into Tianbei, and we need to share the rewards. Otherwise, if the Buddhist sect strikes back, we will have no friends left."

Lin Jiang said this was agreed upon with Li Canghai, to give three planets to the Tianbei Star Domain for free. It seems like a big loss.

However, from a long-term perspective, this will not be a loss at all. First, it will lower the Heavenly Emperor’s vigilance towards them. Otherwise, the strength of the Blue Star camp is growing too fast. There is no such good fortune to give each person a planet. Second, it lowers the risk of internal conflict. This time, the Tianbei Star Domain suffered a great loss, and they gained a big benefit. If we don’t silence them with some profit, gaps will inevitably form. The conflicts with the Buddhist sect are far from over, and we will still need to fight side by side in the future.

From the perspective of the Star Domain, Tiannan has also benefited greatly. They lost the fewest people but gained the most advantages. It’s not possible to have it all.

"Demon Queen, I understand Lin Jiang. If we in Tiannan take all the benefits for ourselves, it will look too greedy."

At this moment, Li Qing spoke up and said that she understood Lin Jiang. There is a strong regionalism between Tiannan and Tianbei. The Tianbei Star Domain does not care how you divide things internally; they only feel that the people from Tianbei have died the most, and that as you in Tiannan take more of the benefits, they are at a loss and will develop resentment.

"How terrible! In this battle, I, the demon race, suffered over a hundred casualties, yet I couldn’t even gain a single planet. It’s just too unfair!"

"Demon Queen, we must think long-term. There are still dozens of Buddhist Planets; there will be many opportunities in the future. I, from the Blue Star, only took one planet this time, and my losses were not small either, but all this is temporary."

"Demon Queen, stop saying that. We will seek life planets later."

Li Qing said that the universe is so vast, there are plenty of life planets, and they still have many chances ahead.

Seeing that both of them said so, what could the Demon Queen do? Without Lin Jiang’s support, even if they took a planet, they couldn’t hold it. Instead, it would cause a split in their relationship with the Heavenly Court, so they had to accept it.

··········

Three months after the battle, the Heavenly Court’s counterattack began.

The Tiannan Star Domain gathered 1,500 cultivators and 800 warships, embarking on a mission to conquer the Tianbei Star Domain’s Buddhist Planets. After three years in Blue Star time, they completely captured seven Buddhist Planets in the Tianbei Star Domain, leaving none behind.

Canglan Star, Nanfeng Star, Xuanque Star, and Beiyuan Star are controlled by four different powers, and they are all part of the southern area of the Tianbei Star Domain. The Tiannan Star Domain connects with the forces of the Tianbei Star Domain. Lin Jiang commanded Zhu Bin to build a teleportation array to link all the planets together.

As for the three planets in the north, they were directly handed over to the Tianbei Star Domain, precisely to the Heavenly Court. How to divide them up is not their concern.

The theme of recovery after the war is to restart production. Lin Jiang took control of Foyin Star and built a teleportation array, immediately bringing in 50 million immigrants from Mahayana Star, all of whom are highly skilled talents.

Since Foyin Star already had a technological foundation, its development after the war was very quick. In less than ten years, Foyin Star seemed to be flourishing again, with no scars left from the great battle.

Each planet is healing its own wounds, and no major events occur in the Star Domain anymore.

"Now that everyone is here, let’s prepare for the meeting."

After two more years on Blue Star, Ye Chen gathered the senior leaders of Blue Star for a meeting.

After this battle, Ye Chen established his leadership position within the Blue Star camp, and his abilities won the trust of others.

"The theme of today’s meeting has two points. The first is an internal meeting about Foyin Star. According to my master Lin Jiang’s advice, he will not take Foyin Star, and I will not take it either. This is an opportunity for all of you. Whoever succeeds in Transmigration first, it will belong to them."

But let’s make it clear in advance: no fierce competition is allowed. You should discuss privately an agreement. If you miss this opportunity, and want to become immortals, that’s okay too. According to the idea of our ancestor Lin Jiang, having more immortals from our Blue Star camp in the Heavenly Court would be great.

The second topic is about the Star Domain issue. The last attack by the Buddhist sect can be considered a failure, but they won’t be satisfied, and neither will the Heavenly Court. Although most of the wandering cultivators in the Tianyuan Star Domain have already died in battle, the fighting will continue. This has been a theme between the Buddhist sect and the Heavenly Court for at least a million years, and no one can change that.

Therefore, to prepare for the war, our Blue Star camp must take responsibility and come up with advance plans, including monitoring and scouting the Tianyuan Star Domain…

Ye Chen spoke up. The first issue was exciting. Lin Jiang actually mentioned the Foyin Star. In their group, there are quite a few cultivators who meet the Transmigration standard. The old buddies from back then still have more than twenty left. Except for Big Shadiao and Small Shadiao, all of them have reached the Transmigration Stage for a long time. In theory, they can all Transmigration, along with the Fire Scale Demon Emperor and Shenwu Demon Emperor from the demon race.

As for monitoring the Tianyuan Star Domain, they had nothing to say; the Blue Star camp has plenty of means. It’s common for the Buddhist sect and Heavenly Court to send spies to each other; Blue Star’s methods are only more advanced.

Everyone silently agreed not to mention the first matter, as that was something they discussed privately. As for monitoring the Buddhist sect, everyone performed their duties and offered their advice and strategies.

Besides that, Ye Chen also talked about exploring the universe. Blue Star has been doing this for many years. They have sent out countless probes over the last few thousand years, but so far, there have been no results. They need to increase their investment, with the goal of giving everyone a planet.
