Although the power of the Dark Emperor is strong, it did not completely destroy the universe; the universe merely rebooted once.
Because... the Primordial Universe has already been polluted by another powerful force, it is a giant sacrificial ground.
The sacrifice has not yet been completed, how can there be destruction?
The clash of two forces resulted in the universe being destroyed, yet rebooted.
At that time, the Radiant Emperor still understood what this meant.
In the rebooted universe, he initiated the Great Expedition once more, following the original historical trajectory.
Having the "experience" from before, this time the Radiant Emperor's Great Expedition went smoothly, swiftly eradicating all civilizations of the entire river system, making the Human Empire truly occupy the river system where the mother planet is located, becoming a River System-level Civilization.
But the ambition of the Radiant Emperor went beyond this; he began to advance beyond the river system.
