Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation smiled at Su Li, tears glimmering in his eyes. He knew Su Li had used his own power to pull him back from the brink of death.

He looked at Su Li with gratitude and pride, as though he were seeing a reflection of himself in his youth.

"Thank you, Li'er." Though Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation's voice was faint, it brimmed with strength and emotion.

"You gave me a second life."

Su Li shook his head and smiled. "It was the least I could do, Father. You're my family. I'll protect you forever."

In that moment, father and son held each other tightly, as though they wanted to meld their strength and warmth into one.

Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation's aura was still powerful, but he was clearly much weaker than before, as if he had endured endless trials and the passage of countless years.

His strength had fallen considerably. His origin had been reconstituted, and the power of a giant would take a long time to recover. Though he still carried the majesty of a supreme Immortal King, the invincible bearing he had once possessed was gone without a trace.

"Father, this is a sliver of origin I prepared for you. It holds all my essence and strength. At a critical moment, it can help you return to your peak."

In Su Li's palm, the wisp of pale, ghostly light seemed to have coalesced from the boundless void. Each ray of light danced as if it possessed a life of its own.

It gave off a soft, mysterious glow, like a star twinkling in the night sky. Though tiny, it contained boundless vitality and power.

Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation gazed at the wisp of light, emotion and relief shining in his eyes.

He knew how extraordinary this sliver of origin was. It contained all of Su Li's emperor-grade essence and power, making it priceless.

Ever since the Era of Emperor Fall, the origin of an emperor had vanished without a trace. Its value was even comparable to the purest origin of an entire great realm.

Yet Su Li shook his head firmly and held out the glowing orb. "Father, this sliver of origin is precious, but your safety matters most to me.

"You're one of the most important people in my life. I can't imagine what Mother would become if I lost you.

"This sliver of origin can help you return to your peak and give you greater strength when it matters most. I prepared it with your well-being in mind, so please accept it, Father."

Looking at Su Li's resolute gaze and determined expression, Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation felt warmth surge through his heart.

He knew his daughter's love and concern for him were utterly sincere. That sentiment was more precious than any treasure.

So he stopped refusing, accepted the sliver of origin, and looked deeply at Su Li. "Li'er, thank you. I'll make good use of it, grow stronger, protect you, and guard our home."

Su Li smiled. His smile was like the first rays of sunrise, warm and gentle, illuminating his whole demeanor.

Joy filled his heart, as though that smile had driven away every worry and sorrow. His happiness came from letting go of the regrets he had carried from his past life, and from the deep parental love he possessed in this life.

In his previous life, Su Li had lost his parents when he was young. A Dark Turmoil had torn his once-happy life to shreds.

He had watched his parents' bodies fall before his eyes. In that moment, his world seemed to collapse, and the agony of his soul being extinguished had been almost too much to bear.

Though he later became an Immortal Emperor, wielding supreme power, he still couldn't find his parents' souls in the cycle of reincarnation or bring them back to life.

It was a regret he would carry forever. Whenever he thought of it, his heart ached as if cut by a knife.

But in this life, his parents were alive and cared deeply for him.

They showed him their love through their actions. Their smiles, warmth, and concern filled him with happiness and contentment unlike anything he had ever known in his previous life.

Whenever he looked at his parents' kind faces and heard their tender reminders, warmth would rise in his heart.

He knew that in this life, he was no longer an orphan with no one to rely on. He had his parents' love and the warmth of a home. That warmth shone in his heart like sunlight, filling him with peace and contentment.

Afterward, Su Li told his father, Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation, that he intended to help his mother, True Immortal Moon Radiance, advance to the Immortal King realm.

Su Li's words swept through Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation's heart like a spring breeze, and a hint of relief and pride flashed in the Immortal King's eyes. He understood his child's intentions and knew how important it was for True Immortal Moon Radiance to advance to the Immortal King realm.

At this critical juncture, the Imperial City needed more strength to protect it. True Immortal Moon Radiance's breakthrough would undoubtedly add a powerful combatant to the Ancient Realm.

Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation nodded solemnly. "Li'er, you've made a wise decision. Moon's advancement means a great deal to us. I'll support you wholeheartedly."

After a pause, he continued, "I'll join the seven Immortal Kings guarding the border and protect Moon, making sure nothing interferes while she proves her path to the Immortal King realm."

Hearing Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation's words, Su Li's worries vanished at once.

With his father and the seven Immortal Kings guarding her, he knew his mother, True Immortal Moon Radiance, would advance safely to the Immortal King realm. It would be a cause for celebration throughout the Ancient Realm.

At Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation's call, the seven Immortal Kings guarding the border answered in turn. They gathered together to protect True Immortal Moon Radiance as she pursued the Dao.

Each of the seven was a top powerhouse of the Ancient Realm. Their presence would provide countless safeguards along True Immortal Moon Radiance's path to proving herself an Immortal King.

Under the powerful protection of Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation and the seven Immortal Kings, True Immortal Moon Radiance began the crucial journey to prove her path.

Her aura steadily rose, like a dragon lurking in the depths, poised to soar into the heavens. An invisible force surged through her, as if ready to shatter every restraint and transform her into an entirely new being.

Amid dazzling radiance, True Immortal Moon Radiance's body gradually blurred, as though her soul were merging with heaven and earth, becoming one with them.

In that moment, her presence seemed to grow immeasurably vast, resonating with the entire universe.

But advancing to the Immortal King realm was no easy feat.

As True Immortal Moon Radiance's aura continued to rise, countless bolts of lightning suddenly filled the heavens and earth, gathering into tribulation after tribulation that crashed down upon her.

The tribulations were horrifying, each bolt containing the power to destroy heaven and earth, as if it meant to annihilate True Immortal Moon Radiance completely.

True Immortal Moon Radiance clenched her teeth and faced the tribulations head-on. The radiance around her grew ever more brilliant as she fought against them, defying heaven and changing her fate.
