"Great master, because interstellar travel was constrained by distance, three epochs ago, level-nine creator gods used spatial technology to build Wormhole Tunnels in the core regions of various galaxies."
"The principle is the same as the entrance to the clan's secret realm on the Moon... no, the entrance to Second Home. Wormhole Tunnels allow rapid warps over extremely long distances."
"Our exploration ship departed from the M78 Nebula and took two Earth years to reach this place, which was only possible through hundreds of warps," Xiluode explained, marking all the Wormhole Tunnels on the star chart as he spoke.
From the Milky Way to several nearby large galaxies, entrances to similar tunnels existed throughout.
Like tollbooths on an expressway, these Wormhole Tunnels allowed travel in both directions.
They were also distributed extremely evenly across vast distances, covering nearly eighty percent or more of the Human Alliance's territory.
As long as Chen Jue wished, he could use these Wormhole Tunnels to warp rapidly to the Alliance's transit planets.
"The nearest wormhole is 0.89 light-years away?"
"Even at the exploration ship's maximum speed, it'll probably take a year to reach it." Chen Jue examined the tunnel coordinates Xiluode had provided.
Although these Wormhole Tunnels could shorten interstellar journeys, the flight from the Sun System to the nearest tunnel entrance was still rather long.
As for how Xiluode and his people endured the tedium and loneliness of the journey, they relied on the human cryogenic technology built into the exploration ship.
Combined with information uploaded through the [Artificial Heavenly Eye], this cryogenic technology allowed people to immerse themselves in a virtual network world, much like the brain-computer interfaces proposed by Earth's technology.
No matter how distant the interstellar journey, they could pass it in cryogenic sleep.
"If used properly, these technologies could revive
