Anaerobic Era

Oxygen, once the cradle of life, has now become the ultimate prison for human evolution. In the future universe, humans rely on genetic evolution agents to dominate the stars, but they are beaten to death by the limit called the "oxygen barrier" and are reduced to the bottom of the interstellar food chain. Zhang Ke, a "loser" abandoned by the mainstream evolutionary system, accidentally picked up a fragment of a jade slip from the ancient East among the ashes of burned ancient books. When technological civilization struggled under the shackles of oxygen, he chose a forgotten path - practicing the "oxygen-free way" derived from the mysteries of Taoism. Introducing the free energy of the universe into his body, refining it into qi, refining qi into spirit... What surges in his body is no longer the biological energy that relies on oxygen, but the "qi" that can tear apart the starry sky. From the tempering of blood and fire in the earth laboratory, to the vacuum breathing in the desperate situation of deep space; from tearing apart the silicon-based colossus with his bare hands, to using his physical body to shake the energy of stars... Every breakthrough of Zhang Ke is subverting the limits of human cognition. Not only did he cut off his own oxygen shackles, he also ignited a civilizational revolution that swept across the stars. When the silicon-based empire's gravity cannon roared, when the soul-devouring purple light of the nether energy tribe flashed, when the Zero One descended to erase the laws of existence... His whole body ignited with cyan Dao flames that did not rely on oxygen, and made a star-shattering declaration in front of the array of thousands of ships: "This is the anaerobic era!"
