Just after entering school, you became an emperor pilot?

Chapter 525 1 Mistakes

"Everything stems from a wrong perception."

In the huge palace, the old man's voice echoed in the air, filled with regret and loneliness.

"At that time, the ancestral court was at its peak. We were arrogant and conceited, and we believed that the endless galaxy was already in our hands."

The old man looked up at the star map above and pointed to the brightest area. "See? That's where the ancestral temple was located. The surrounding galaxies are all under our control."

"We have conquered all territories in the observable universe and we control endless resources!

Wherever the stars rise, they all belong to the king's court."

The old man suddenly became excited and his expression was full of pride.

Lu Yun waited quietly for the old man's next words.

"But then..."

The old man hunched over again, as if all his strength had been drained away. “Later, we discovered a void passage.”

Lu Yun's eyes flashed slightly, and he vaguely understood.

As a royal court that controls the entire universe, its ruler will inevitably go to war again when faced with new territories.

The old man glanced at Lu Yun and said, "Are you thinking that the proud Zuting must want to take down the void as well?"

Lu Yun nodded calmly.

"Haha, it's not that simple."

The old man shook his head and looked down at his feet.

Lu Yun lowered his head.

Only then did he notice that there was a star map engraved on the crystal floor beneath his feet.

"Do you know the Chronicle of Emperor Shun?" the old man asked.

Emperor Shun Chronicle?

Lu Yun remembered the information Mu Doudou had told him and nodded: "I know a little bit."

"I didn't expect you knew so much."

The old man looked at Lu Yun in surprise and continued, "Then you should know that after more than 30,000 years of prosperity, the Emperor Shun era was destroyed by the catastrophe of destruction."

"The Zuting inherited the legacy of Emperor Shunji, rose from the ruins, and developed mecha technology to its peak, conquering the entire universe. However, in the end, they discovered that even with the power to rule the entire universe, they still could not escape the shackles of the universe."

"So, we set our sights on the void creatures."

"After tens of thousands of studies, we discovered that the void world can actually perfectly avoid the destruction of the universe.

There are even immortal species among the creatures there. They have survived the destruction of the universe several times and still exist. Their history has not been interrupted!"

"So, do you understand how excited we were when we found this?"

"We thought we had found a solution to the catastrophe of cosmic destruction. We thought we could be the true saviors!"

"..." Lu Yun was silent for a moment, then asked, "And then?"

"Then, we will send troops to the void."

The star map under his feet lit up, and from the outermost position, one node after another was lit up, like a spider web.

"But we are not here to occupy the void, but to... merge."

"The ancestral court is unwilling to give up everything in the surface universe. It wants to rely on biotechnology to extract the genes of void creatures, merge them with the tribe, and transform the tribe into a void race."

"However, we didn't expect the Void creatures' genes to be so terrifying. They possess unimaginable infectiousness. All the people inoculated with the Void genes have degenerated into true Void people."

The old man changed the subject and his voice became heavy.

The star map on the ground was already half lit, but at this moment, it suddenly went out.

Darkness began to rapidly devour the lit nodes until the entire star map was completely extinguished.

Then, the darkness began to spread to the star map on the ceiling.

Lu Yun knew that the star map above his head represented the universe he was currently in.

“That’s where the mistakes started.”

The old man closed his eyes, as if he couldn't bear to see what was happening.

"The Fallen have become the guides of the void creatures."

"Led by the Void Lord, a vast swarm of brutal creatures invaded on a massive scale."

"We covet their power, and they have been greedily eyeing our territory."

"This war has lasted for a very long time, so long that it has become normal in the eyes of the world.

Until a new opportunity arises.”

The old man suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Yun with bright eyes.

That look made Lu Yun feel uncomfortable, as if everything about him was seen through.

"Could it be me who will turn the tide?" Lu Yun asked subconsciously.

The old man smiled and nodded slightly.

boom!

At that moment, Lu Yun felt as if a bomb had been dropped into his brain.

"During a mission to bomb a void channel, we accidentally opened a channel leading to another dimension and found you there."

"We brought you back to the ancestral temple, and after research, we discovered that your physique possesses incredible characteristics."

"The Void Gene that we are incompatible with can exist perfectly in your body."

"Even the unique blood of the ancestral court can flow steadily in your veins without any conflicting reactions."

"The ancestral court has been searching for a method for decades, and it has been realized so easily in you."

"At that moment, the ancestral court regarded you as the savior."

"So, the ancestral court decided to place all its hopes on you."

"We used your bloodline to transform the 'Killing Machine' and renamed it 'Haotian' at your instruction.

You said the name represented honor."

"The Ancestral Court has infused your bloodline power into your body, then frozen your life and sent you to the present era. This will allow you to safely survive your fragile growth period without the protection of the Ancestral Court's power."

"As for the Ancestral Court, we will bring all our available strength into the Void World to block the Void's invasion and provide you with time to awaken and grow."

"Thanks to your bloodline, the ancestral court has also made some breakthroughs in fusing the void bloodline. Although the power gained is not as strong as yours, it will finally avoid corruption and degeneration."

“And so it continues to this day.”

The old man sighed and looked somewhat relieved.

"So that's why Photon 0 said that the ancestral temple didn't disappear?" Lu Yun suddenly realized.

"Yes."

"As the price for their mistakes, they have been transformed into void creatures, living forever in the void world.

This was the redemption plan that was formulated at that time.”

The old man tilted his head to look at Lu Yun, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. "It seems that the plan is very successful now. Your growth rate is beyond our expectations. We thought it would take you longer to get the inheritance we have hidden and come here."

“The power of the ancestral court has been perfectly integrated with you.

You also successfully obtained the bloodline of the void.

Now, you finally have the confidence to lead the universe to completely eliminate the void."

However, facing the old man's expectant gaze, Lu Yun couldn't help but wonder: "You seem very sure that I will accept this answer and follow the arrangements of this plan."

"Yes, because you were one of the people who formulated this plan back then."

“But I don’t have any memory of that time now.”

The old man seemed to have expected this and laughed: "Human nature does not change."

"You were willing to take on this responsibility back then, so you naturally won't refuse now."

"Of course, it's undeniable that there is indeed a factor related to your interests."

"Oh?" Lu Yun looked at the other party.

The old man raised his lips with a determined smile: "Go home."

"Back to where you came from."
