Li Yao woke up.
Or rather, the billions of cells that constituted his body, as well as the infinite genetic information stored in them, woke up.
The genetic information was not just from the Pangu Clan, the Nuwa Clan, the Houyi Clan, and other primeval species, but it was also from the creators of the primeval species, which were even older and more incomprehensible, and from the hot and chaotic primitive universe when those older species were not born yet.
Tremendous information was generated at the moment of the big bang, which created the planets and stars as well as the first batch of lives. That information was passed on to this day through the genes of those lives.
From the perspective of elements, humans were essentially no different from planets.
Perhaps the carbons in Li Yao's body were part of a planet billions of years ago.
