For thousands of years, mankind's pursuit of immortality has never ceased. From elixir magic to genetic deciphering, all the efforts of civilization have failed to open the door to eternal life. When the limit of flesh and blood reaches its peak, human beings cast their last hope in an existence beyond themselves - a mechanical mind with extremely fast computing, massive data, and unbounded wisdom as its core, hoping that cold algorithms can unlock the ultimate code of life.
Guided by the protagonist Qu Yi, an interstellar journey starting from "seeking immortality" begins. On the way to symbiosis with AI, dialogue with machines, and encounters with unknown civilizations across the galaxy, the original obsession is constantly subverted: faith is no longer a nihilistic sustenance, the universe is no longer a distant illusion, AI and robots are no longer tools, and the definition of life has long transcended life and death.
In desperate situations, adventures and awakenings, Qu Yi broke the old shackles of cognition, from chasing physical immortality to getting a glimpse of the truth about the origin of the universe. When humans seek immortality through mechanical wisdom, what they ultimately reshape is a new understanding of themselves, civilization, and the entire vast universe.
Purpose: Human beings have been obsessed with immortality for thousands of years as a starting point to explore the future when physical life reaches its limit and civilization turns to AI and mechanical minds to seek breakthroughs.
