On the Fortress World of the Thunder Saint Alliance, the three sides were now locked in a chaotic melee. Li Qinwu needed to find a way to capture the Grand Inquisitor amid the chaos, or kill him and obtain proof of his corruption.
Having explained the situation, it was time to discuss the distance.

As a result, his fleet was currently very far from both Ultramar and the Fortress World. Even through the Warp, the journey would take a full five years.
Of course, five years was not much in space. The Fortress World had descended into a total brawl, and that war could easily last ten or twenty years.
Under normal circumstances, if Li Qinwu received this mission, he would have gone to take a look even if he had to spend five years flying there.
But five years was far too long. Life was short; how many five years did a person have?
Li Qinwu planned to reach the target by a faster method. He intended to use the Eldar Webway.
The Eldar Webway was equivalent to a high-speed highway outside the Warp. In theory, traveling through the Webway was far safer than traveling through the Warp.
And because it was a high-speed highway, once one entered a Webway entrance, one could reach the destination at incredible speed.
Before humanity had even evolved, the Old Ones had built Webway entrances throughout the universe. Even Terra, humanity's ancestral home, might once have had a Webway entrance built there, though nobody had discovered it.
In any case, after comparing the Webway map provided by the Eldar with human star
