This reporter pointed at the earth-shattering battle behind her and explained, "Normally, when these ordinary Ninth-Orders can no longer break through in cultivation and their realms stagnate, what do they do with all that endless time?
Naturally, they switch to the Technology Side. They borrow the power of external objects to keep raising their combat strength. Though it is an unorthodox path, there is no denying that it is the best option. They spend thousands, even tens of thousands of years learning mechanical artifact-forging techniques, painstakingly gathering resources, crossing star systems, building warships, and stockpiling energy.

In theory, the energy level of this warship's combat power can rival the terrifying bulk of the Iron-Based Clan. But in the end, it is a dead object. It is not a living being.
