The Tian Jue Hao continued onward.
The edge of the Sun's dominion lay ahead.
Countless fragments of rock, asteroids, and irregular celestial bodies formed it. Reflecting the Sun's faint light, they resembled a dim, endless pearl necklace coiling around the entire Solar System.
That was right.
The edge of the Solar System was a belt of debris.
Known as the Kuiper Belt.
Named in honor of the scientist who first discovered it, Gerard Kuiper.
The interwoven gravitational forces of the Sun and Neptune kept the Kuiper Belt from dispersing.
Some visionaries believed
the Kuiper Belt was a barrier protecting the Solar System, inhabited by obscure "Frontier War Gods" who had never revealed themselves in 4.5 billion years.
Of course, no human spacecraft or probe had ever crossed the Kuiper Belt.
Liu Di's group was now 12,100 kilometers from the Kuiper Belt. On the scale of the universe, that was practically within arm's reach.
As everyone gazed at the sight before them, they marveled at its wonder while feeling slightly disappointed.
There were no Frontier War Gods here.
Only cold solitude, rocks of all kinds, and chunks of ice.
"What's that?!"
Little Liu suddenly cried out inside the quiet Tian Jue Hao.
Following his pointing finger, they saw the Kuiper Belt ahead, like a broad, solid city wall. At its center stood a row of towering figures, one after another, glowing red all over, clad in armor and wielding longsabers or halberds!
The Cosmic Great Wall, the Huaxia Lion.
"The Kuiper Belt is about twenty-five astronomical units wide—that's 3.75 billion kilometers!"
"Judging by the scale, those War Gods are roughly a billion kilometers tall?!"
"Can you see them? They look like ancient Chinese warriors!"
"OMG."
Little Liu clutched his hair, his face a mixture of excitement, exhilaration, and terror.
Who didn't
