In 2035, quantum physicist Lu Xinglan is investigating the National Archives when he accidentally triggers a mechanism that distorts time and space, plunging him into a vortex spanning several centuries. From the mysterious Forbidden City of the Ming dynasty to the Hongwu Dragon Palace beneath Poyang Lake and a modern quantum laboratory, his fate becomes tightly intertwined with Ming history. Amid the temporal turbulence, he joins forces with Empress Zhang Yan of the Ming dynasty to oppose Wei Zhongxian’s mechanical conspiracy. Faced with a closed time loop and paradoxes, can they find a way to break through? What secret lies behind the armillary sphere engraved with Latin characters that Zhu Yuanzhang operates?
When a particle collider and a matchlock rifle begin to resonate in a bizarre way, a rift in time and space opens wide. Will Lu Xinglan lose himself in the endless expanse of time, or can he uncover the ultimate truth where history and science fiction intersect and break the chains of fate?
