[Welcome back to the Void Insight True Heaven, True Person Pingyun...]
One AI voice after another rang out from the Aerospace Battleship's communications module.
Bai Yi looked up out the window. Beyond the starship, where the starry sky had been empty, ripples spread through the air.
A mechanical Star Track stretching tens of thousands of kilometers came into view, its upper surface packed with gravity-traction devices. Lights flickered along its frequency contact points.
Within the Star Track, a gigantic metallic planet revolved under its gravitational pull. Hundreds of thousands of heavy, uncrewed deep-space exploration and transport ships gradually entered the outer Star Track from stars across the sky.
"The Void Insight True Heaven lies at the edge where the Gray Domain and the Immortal Alliance's starry sky intertwine. It also bears responsibility for responding to emergencies in the Gray Domain."
"Once you officially become a disciple of the Void Insight Dao Academy, your status as a lower-realm True Disciple will allow you to independently command an Immortal Alliance Army of no more than five hundred soldiers on the Ancestor Star."
True Person Pingyun spoke calmly. The four great Dao academies enjoyed the Immortal Alliance's most top-tier resources, and naturally shouldered considerable responsibilities as well.
The outer city before them, resembling a man-made mechanical planet, was merely a massive star fortress that the Void Insight True Heaven had continuously built and modified over nearly ten thousand years to block the outer regions.
"Come on. We'll soon reach the Void Insight True Heaven."
The Star Track turned slowly. A silver-gray mechanical metal gate, like a heavenly portal, gradually opened, and holographic light drew the Star Track into view.
