The Name of the Heavenly Demon

In the Void Star Sea, there were countless stars and innumerable star systems, but very few could form a star domain.

The star systems Liang Ji and the others had found while exploring the Outer Domain—such as the Sun Bathing Star system, the Mu Yun Star system, and the Three Saints Star system—were merely individual systems. Each had one or two suns, with a dozen or several dozen stars circling them. Some might contain Spirit Vein Stars, together forming a star system.

A star domain, however, was different. It took at least dozens, or even hundreds, of star systems gathered in a stretch of the void to form one.

This placed far more exacting demands on how the star systems and stars were distributed, and on how the power of their fields flowed and constrained one another.

Even in the boundless Void Star Sea, few star domains could gather dozens or hundreds of star systems without collapsing in on themselves.

What was more, some star domains had dead stars throughout their systems, with no Life Stars or Spirit Vein Stars, due to various causes such as harsh environments or extreme forces. To the Star Alliance, such a dead star domain could serve only as a resource-gathering site; it had no value for pioneering, occupying, or developing.

Finding a star domain teeming with Life Stars in the vast sea of stars was no easier than panning for gold in the sand.

That was why, over hundreds of thousands of years, the Star Alliance had occupied only thirty-three star domains in the boundless sea of stars. In general, it could launch a war to pioneer a new domain only once every ten thousand years or so.

One reason was that the Star Alliance needed roughly ten thousand years to slowly digest and
