Just like that, after the Silver Heart Civilization returned to the group, the four civilizations and the Starry Sky Defenders formed a new team, cranked their warp setting to the maximum, and gradually vanished into the vast Void.
From a certain perspective, with the Divine Matrix Civilization absent, as far as the Silver Heart Civilization was concerned, it really had gone from "you three" to "us three." Oh, with the Daya Civilization included, it was "us four."
Because they needed to avoid the Degeneracy Civilization that might come looking for them, the few remaining civilizations such as Human Civilization did not set their destination around the star systems near the Boötes Void. Instead, they directly took a route through the Void, planning to make a wide detour first, then follow the Starry Sky Defenders' star map.
Times were different now. After reaching the level of a Cosmic Civilization, long voyages truly no longer required hopping from one star system to another as footholds. In the boundless Void, they could simply travel in a straight line.
Precisely because of that, the probability of Cosmic Civilizations encountering one another became even lower.
If they wanted to find another Cosmic Civilization, either that civilization had to be waging war in some starfield and causing some colossal commotion like wiping out an entire star system in one blow, or its flight trail had to be discovered, or some immense zero-point energy reaction detected. Otherwise, actually running into one was truly difficult.
Just like now, after The Great Voyage Organization, formed by Human Civilization, Awakener Huan's civilization, the Daya Civilization, the Silver Heart Civilization, and the Starry Sky Defenders, sailed into cosmic space, it was as if they had entered a world of darkness. Ordinary detection methods would find it very difficult to discover them.
