A Life That Could Turn the Universe Upside Down

In the age of interstellar expansion, human civilization has stagnated under the pressure of dwindling resources and the threat of unknown alien civilizations. Gu Jiyuan, a low-level scrap recycler, accidentally acquires a super-tech System called the “Seeds of Civilization.” It comes from a long-lost supergod civilization, and contains knowledge and technology powerful enough to upend the universe. From that moment on, Gu Jiyuan’s life takes a completely different course. Starting with hand-building his first superconducting battery, he goes on to realize one theoretical technological miracle after another with ease: antigravity engines, warp travel, Dyson spheres, and finally, the two-dimensional foil... Military leaders back him, top conglomerates serve him, and the world’s greatest scientists regard him as a god. When an alien fleet arrives at humanity’s doorstep and all of mankind is plunged into despair, Gu Jiyuan pilots the planet-cracker he built with his own hands and cuts through the starry sky. With his strength alone, he will usher human civilization into an entirely new era.
