The Chenriver Empire spans over one hundred billion planetary systems.
And the imperial star of this cosmic nation is truly the heart of all its brilliance—a core of civilization where Starlight-tier beings are common, and the might of Stellar Palace-tier cultivators occasionally spills forth. Dragons lurk, tigers crouch; powerhouses gather in such numbers that words fail to capture the true nature of the imperial star.
Language becomes pale and powerless.
The vastness and grandeur of the imperial star surpass even Andrew Han’s imagination.
Upon closer inspection, the imperial star’s diameter is more than ten times that of Earth, its volume even more terrifying. It is not a naturally formed life planet, but a habitable world transformed by the Chenriver Empire.
A vast halo envelops the surface of the planet.
The halo, like silken cotton, slowly rotates, as if it contains boundless power.
“Look,” the Emperor said, pointing to the thousands of vast halos, smiling lightly. “These are the product of artificial gravity flows. They can indirectly regulate the planet’s orbital and rotational trajectory, speed, direction, and countless other factors… A planet this massive is not suited for life, but with technology, we have transformed it.”
Andrew Han blinked in astonishment.
The two continued their descent, entering the imperial star.
A silver megacity came into view—magnificent and boundless, towering into infinity. Even with Andrew Han’s vision, he could scarcely make out the upper edges of the city walls.
Andrew Han couldn’t help but ask, “Is this the Imperial Capital?”
“No, this is only one of the outer-ring cities.”
The Emperor Zhen Gu smiled, understanding Andrew Han’s astonishment.
Talent has nothing to do with perspective; since first entering the starry sky, Andrew Han had always cultivated quietly in Chenriver Palace. It was only natural to be awestruck upon arriving at the imperial star.
“Andrew Han, come with me.”
“Let me show you the imperial star. You are destined to be a genius of the cosmos, inscribed in the Human Genius Register. Your mindset still needs adjustment. The broader your vision, the farther your future will reach—never confine yourself to any single corner of the stars.”
……
The central imperial star is divided into thirty-three outer-ring cities, six middle-ring cities, and a single core Imperial Capital.
“Look, this is the outer ring.”
