Although Lu Chen had many questions in his heart, he did not ask them at this time. This was because every piece of information that the old man said was something that Lu Chen wanted to know.
"The opening of the Jiutian at that time was completely different from the opening of the Jiutian server." The old man continued, "From the beginning, we were told that the Jiutian was not just a game! This was the real cultivation of immortality! "
"At the same time, we were also told that the coordinates of Earth had entered the list of planets that had been requisitioned!"
"In other words, if we could not enter the Seventh Heaven in these 50 years, then … Earth would be sacrificed to the Jiutian!"
"The reason why the Jiutian chose us was to give us a chance to protect Earth!"
"Perhaps the Jiutian felt that the time given to Earth was too short, so we received a lot of support, such as the Spirit Extraction Scroll, immortal pills, and so on. Our strength improved by leaps and bounds in a short period of time!"
"However, our foundation was too weak, and the time was too short. Even with the support of the first batch of players, none of us reached the peak of the Human King in 50 years!"
Another middle-aged man said, "At that time, we saw that Earth was officially opened to the Jiutian server. Your growth rate was too slow, and we knew that if we did not transcend the tribulation, Earth's coordinates would be completely exposed."
"Therefore, we gathered all the resources in the hands of the players on Earth and concentrated them in the hands of 20 people. We knew that we could not transcend the tribulation, but we forcibly transcended the tribulation!"
"Forcibly transcended the tribulation?" Lu Chen asked in surprise.
"Yes! We only raised our spiritual power to the peak of the Human King, but our three dimensions were far from enough, so we took the Tribulation Transcendence Pill and forcibly transcended the tribulation! "
"In the end, the result was still considered fortunate. We entered the Seventh Heaven as individual immortals!"
Lu Chen frowned. He seemed to have thought of something and was a little emotional. "So you received 19 coordinates … But, didn't you say that 20 people were going to transcend the tribulation? What about the other person? "
"There was another person … He was a legend, the strongest human on Earth. When he transcended the tribulation, he did not take the Tribulation Transcendence Pill … He became a true immortal!"
"Who was it?" Lu Chen asked.
"Your father, Immortal Master Lu Yuan!"
Lu Chen felt as if he had been electrocuted.
His father was the strongest on Earth! A True Immortal!
After a long time, Lu Chen said faintly, "Where is he now? What about my mother? Did she transcend the tribulation with you, or is she still in the Sixth Heaven? "
"This … We don't know much about your mother. You might have to ask your father yourself. As for Immortal Master Lu Yuan, he descended to the Lower Realm without permission, and is currently suffering boundless heavenly punishment. "
"Nothing! Exhausted! Heavens! Punish! "Lu Chen repeated each word.
"I've told you before that we can't reveal the fact that we've entered the Jiutian, but your father skirted the line. He didn't tell you about the Jiutian, but he used all the resources at his disposal and even exchanged his true immortal strength for a supreme treasure to change your constitution!"
Lu Chen was even more shocked.
Gnolls? Monsters? Dual Heavenly Might? Could it be that all of this was left to him by his father?
Lu Chen's eyes were red. This was a completely different person from the man who had abandoned him and his sister!
His father had left without saying goodbye because he couldn't say anything, but he had used everything in exchange for an uncertain possibility!
What kind of courage did he have to do this!
"You, you said that he exchanged his true immortal strength for a supreme treasure, and that he was being punished by the heavens?"
"That's right, your father is only a mortal now, but the Jiutian has a corresponding way to punish your father. In the Nine Heavens Domain, there's a 'Heaven Piercing Prison' that can make people immortal, but at the same time, they'll suffer endless punishment!"
Lu Chen couldn't hold back his tears …
The man he had always hated had done so much for him and for Earth … The most painful thing was that no one understood what he had done. He knew that his son and daughter would definitely hate him.
"Lu Chen …" The old man actually called Lu Chen by his real name. "You just asked why we only received nineteen coordinates when twenty of us came to the Seventh Heaven?" The old man's smile had a trace of bitterness.
Another person said, "Before Immortal Master Lu Yuan 'left', he said that our strength was not enough to protect Earth. This last coordinate, which is related to the safety of the entire Earth … was to be left to his son!"
"He said that he believed that one day, you would become the strongest person. You would become the person who would break this heartless world. You would become the person who would save the world from fire and water … He believed that you could do it …"
"Lu Chen, the Guide Plan was also created by your father." The old man continued, "If you didn't come to the Seventh Heaven in the stipulated time, Earth would be sacrificed. However, if the people there had a certain level of self-protection, they wouldn't be like some sacrificial planets, where they would be at the mercy of others."
"It can be said that the Guide Plan is another backup plan."
Lu Chen vaguely remembered that when the Guide first appeared, he had said, "Earth doesn't have much time left …"
Now that he thought about it, the current situation was indeed very urgent!
"Dad …" Lu Chen lowered his head. After being silent for a long time, he couldn't help but cry bitterly …
When the others saw this, they silently left. At this time, what Lu Chen needed was to be alone for a while.
…
In the evening, Lu Chen sat alone outside the cave, looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, lost in thought.
The old man walked out and sat beside him.
"Lu Chen, do you still hate your father?"
Lu Chen shook his head, "Actually … I never hated him and my mother. In my memory, they loved me and my sister very much. It's just that those memories are too few, I can't remember clearly … I once thought that maybe they had a reason to leave."
The old man lowered his head and smiled slightly, "You are indeed different from ordinary people."
"Elder, how should I address you?" Lu Chen turned to look at the old man.
"Oh, my immortal name is Li Shang."
"Elder Li Shang, even if there are nineteen people other than my father, I only saw ten before. What about the other nine?"
"They died in the immortal war. Even if it's us, we can't cultivate now," the old man said calmly.
Lu Chen was silent for a moment. During the day, he only cared about his own matters and neglected the fact that these people who forced themselves to pass the tribulation were also protecting Earth with the determination to die.
"Is the guide plan going well?"
"It's going well, but reaching the Fifth Layer of Heaven is the limit. Moreover, the time given to them is too short. Now we have six years. In six years, the new generation of Earth can't grow up."
"Without the support of resources, it's impossible to reach the Seventh Layer of Heaven without a few hundred years."
"Of course, you are an exception …"
Lu Chen nodded. Indeed, Xiaoyi was only three years old now. Even if everything went well, he didn't know how long it would take for him to grow up in the Jiutian.
"The guide plan is actually to give the people of Earth a glimmer of hope even if they are sacrificed."
Lu Chen thought of the Origin God Token. Didn't the Origin God give the aborigines a glimmer of hope?
This might be the limit of what they could do.
"Lu Chen, what do you plan to do next? Are you an immortal or a true immortal? "
"Neither!" Lu Chen said directly.
"None, none of them?"
"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded, "But regardless of whether I'm an immortal or not, since I'm here, I will change the rules here!"
"These are the rules of the Jiutian, not mine!" Lu Chen suddenly stood up, his gaze piercing the sky, "Heaven's Prison! I will definitely go! "
