At the edge of the Long Lantern Nebula Constellation, Luo Qi, anchored to a spatial layer, watched the civilizations throughout the constellation vanish together. Though stripped of life, the starry sky remained just as dazzling. Suddenly, an idea came to him.
"If a civilization advances successfully, it ascends to a higher dimension."
"If it fails, it descends to a lower dimension..."
Perhaps this offered a direction for pursuing ultra-advanced civilizations. As Luo Qi calculated the possibilities of dimensional ascension, he worked out the specific paths a civilization could take.
An immense network of paths toward dimensional ascension emerged from his calculations, like a glowing tree sprouting countless branches.
Interestingly, most of the unexplored paths had a feasibility of over 80 percent. In other words, if Luo Qi had the courage to take that first step in any direction, he would discover a different landscape.
However, this was not particularly tempting to Luo Qi, who had become a space civilization less than three hundred years ago. The knowledge the civilizations of the Long Lantern Nebula Constellation had accumulated over millions of years filled in part of his technological landscape, leaving a little less of the universe unknown.
He controlled the microcosm and directly swept the twenty-two observation subjects out of the conventional universe, leaving the Long Lantern Nebula Constellation silent. The microcosm began moving, piercing toward cosmic coordinates tens of thousands of light-years away...
On the surface of a star radiating orange-red light, brilliant golden waves of high-energy particles surged like raging seas, gathering energy. As though stirred by an invisible hand, they roared to break free into the heavens, only to be bound by powerful, invisible chains of gravity and dragged back toward the stellar surface. Before their defiance could fade, the terrifying light particles spewed out by the
