The void passage was suffocating. Endless darkness surrounded Tyler, Priscilla, Yu Meixue, Lan Xuero, and Lan Yi. The faint, protective light enveloping them was the only source of comfort, shielding them from the vacuum of space. Yet, the sensation was surreal—they couldn't even feel themselves moving. Time seemed meaningless, stretched thin in this silent expanse.
Tyler scanned the abyss, his thoughts racing. What is this place? Are we even moving forward?
Out of nowhere, a portal materialized in front of them, its edges rippling like liquid silver. Before they could react, an invisible force yanked them forward, and they were hurled into another void.
This one was different. Specks of light began appearing in the distance. At first, they were faint and scattered, but soon they grew brighter and multiplied, forming constellations. Tyler's eyes widened as he realized the sheer scale of what he was witnessing.
