After the "false alarm," the fleet became much more cautious. This time, they had at least encountered a relatively friendly Saint. But what if they met an unreasonable one next time? One that slapped you first, then asked, "Why did I hit you?"
The fleet's advance speed dropped further, while its reconnaissance technology underwent frenzied iteration. Much of the data they had obtained from the Primordial Yang Dao Venerable was also put to use in searching for "Saints."
The void of the Inner World was completely different from that of the Outer World. There was no helping it—there were simply too many powerful experts here.
With sufficient caution, they gradually discovered some potentially hidden dangers.
Potentially hidden, because the actual situation was unclear, and they did not dare investigate. As long as something felt wrong, they detoured around it.
For example, worlds moved, so gravitational waves inevitably existed. Under normal circumstances, spacetime should have faint, irregular ripples, no matter how weak. Like the surface of the sea, no matter how calm the winds and waves were, it could not be entirely without ripples.
If reconnaissance detected an especially calm patch of void ahead, so calm that there was not the slightest disturbance, the fleet immediately went around it.
If the void ahead looked normal but its spacetime ripples were unusually fixed, they also had to detour—under normal circumstances, spacetime ripples were fairly chaotic. Gravitational waves came from every direction and varied in strength. Such fixed spacetime ripples were most likely traps or disguises.
If the absolute temperature of the void ahead exceeded 4 K, there was definitely a problem. The temperature of the cosmic microwave background radiation was around 3 K to 3.5 K, or approximately 2.7255 K after correction.
If the temperature of the void exceeded 4 K, they
