Synopsis

This is not a power fantasy. This is not a power fantasy. The plot involves multiple layers of metaphor. The first dozen or so chapters lay the groundwork, so the pace is a little slow. I’m new to this, so please be kind.

Mysterious symbols have appeared around the world, and they are all exactly alike. These symbols have deep connections to ancient myths. What is the mysterious organization’s goal? Why is it connected to the murder cases of scholars in the scientific community? What is the true source of it all?

Since the first ray of light appeared at the birth of the universe, the Milky Way has been but an insignificant speck of dust in the universe’s hundreds of billions of years of existence. Compared with the Milky Way, the solar system’s orbit is as tiny as an ant trying to shake a tree. What of Earth in comparison? And humanity? Across the brilliant history of China, five thousand years have recorded the rise and fall of dynasties and every facet of human life. What does the universe truly care about? What is its ultimate fate? When all things finally come to an end, where will the universe’s soul go?

Novels About Traveling from Earth into the Universe

Something similar to Swallowed Star, The Arrival of the Strongest in the City, Rise of the Revival Era, and Cultivation Frenzy. Ideally, it starts in a middle or high school, with the protagonist rising step by step, entering the universe, joining humanity, and fighting alien races. That kind of story.

Top-Tier Sci-Fi Novels with Huge Ideas!

Not the usual bland stuff. Science fiction should actually feel like science fiction, but every tech tree is the same old thing: nuclear power and dark matter. I'm sick of it. Give me something with a fully realized world, consistent logic, and a completely original field of science!
