In an extremely remote stretch of space on the edge of Guchen Universe Country.
Space rippled, and a silver-white spaceship appeared out of nowhere. Its hatch slowly opened, and Dongguan, clad in silver armor, flew out. With a wave, he put the spaceship into his World Ring.
"Here will do."

The Illusion-Light Vine, which had transformed into a Plant Battle Suit, extended a vine. Immortal divine power surged, and with a forceful sweep through the void, it opened a spatial rift.
Dongguan stepped inside. The Illusion-Light Vine extended its vines, forming a spherical shield that turned transparent and enveloped him.
The Space Interlayer held endless space fragments. Dongguan was still at the domain lord peak, and if he was careless, they could cut him.
"Keep going deeper."
The Space Interlayer had many layers. The outermost was the Space Fragment Layer, where they were now. The space fragments here were not particularly large; even those spanning ten thousand kilometers were rare, though that was because they were in its shallow reaches. As they went deeper, larger space fragments appeared in increasing numbers.
One Hundred Thousand Kilometers, Million Kilometers, even ten million or over a hundred million kilometers appeared.
They had reached the Divine Kingdom Layer.
"How about this one?" Dongguan asked the Illusion-Light Vine after finding one that looked suitable.
