The starry sky beneath their feet was 18,000 light-years from the Solar System.
The planet ahead was 8,000 kilometers from Tian Jue Hao.
This was unfamiliar territory.
Liu Di searched through the data for a moment.
He discovered that it had no designation, nor were there any related hypotheses.
Because in humanity's astronomical observation records, this planet simply did not exist.
Compared to the universe, humanity's observational capabilities were still exceedingly weak—so weak that even if errors occurred, they had no way of knowing.

Everything was deathly still.
Liu Di frowned slightly.
That planet slowly enlarged in his field of vision.
There was no dust or gas around it, no atmosphere whatsoever.

"Hehe."
Everyone aboard Tian Jue Hao froze.
They had all heard a crisp laugh. The pitch differed, yet each voice belonged to someone deeply familiar to them.
The laughter was cheerful, as though welcoming
