In the peripheral zone of the Tianchu World Cluster.
A grayish-white miniature void warship was hurtling through the air, its speed even faster than the large void warships of the Eight Desolations Alliance, flashing a hundred million miles across the void in the blink of an eye as if executing spatial jumps.
Inside the warship, two figures sat cross-legged.
One of them was a young human in a crimson robe with a resolute face and sharp contours.
The other was a middle-aged being with slender ears, large eyes, and a flat bridge of the nose. His entire body was covered in purplish-red skin densely patterned with tiny lines, resembling markings upon stone.
