At that moment, Gao Gong hovered in the void, gazing at the "Archive Branch" before him.
It stretched as far as the eye could see: layers upon layers of bookshelves. The buildings were not all of the same style. Some were enormous bronze structures, some were made of crystal-like materials, and some seemed to have been piled up from pure shadows.

The "Exchange Conference" held once every hundred years in the main universe.
The "Private Knowledge Exchanges" hosted by senior members.
The official civilization knowledge trading platform.
The lecture conferences of ascended civilizations.
The various rewards for submitting "high-level scientific research results."
The various activities for sharing "universal resource coordinates."
The exploration activities at the edge of the observable universe, open only to senior members.
There were more than ten thousand entries in total. Only
