How I Reached the Pinnacle of Life by Picking Up Scraps in Ancient Times

Lin Yue, a medical slacker from Beijing Normal University's Medical Research Institute, was sucked into a strange door by a mysterious force just because she casually complained a few words.

Chapter 106: The Original Echo of the Heartstring Sea

At the deepest point of the Primordial Sea, Lin Yue and Lu Li finally encountered the true consciousness of the "Anchor of Time"—a double-helix seed suspended in a sea of ​​light. Its core entangled golden-red causal lines and silver-purple streams of consciousness, its surface etched with the memory patterns of their shared experiences: the flash of protective commands within the code stream as Lu Li blocked recursive fragments for her in the fractal maze; the frequency of trust infused into the threads of time as she stabilized his temporal state in the entropy-reversed hourglass. When their hands simultaneously touched the seed, the entire Primordial Sea suddenly boiled, and all the dark purple entropy of emotion transformed into streams of light that poured into the cracks of the seed. Lin Yue felt the mark on the back of her neck resonate with the seed. Her body gradually became transparent, but her consciousness became clearer than ever before—she "saw" that the source of Lu Li's code was a silver-purple river woven from countless modified timelines, and its source was the dazzling light from when she first activated the mark.

"We are becoming the new 'Anchor of Time'..." Lu Li's voice echoed in the sea of ​​light. His code body was merging with the seed, and the golden lines of Lin Yue's time thread emerged from the silver-purple data stream. "But this time, rules and emotions will no longer be separated." As he spoke, countless tiny double helix structures emerged from the seed's surface, each representing the birth of a new universe. Lin Yue saw that in one structure, a calico cat was teaching a mechanical cub to recognize heart-shaped gears. When the gears meshed, they resonated with the frequency of their laughter. In another structure, the fractal maze of Koch snowflakes was blooming into love flowers, the recursive lines of each petal engraved with the frequencies of "trust" and "protection."

The most astonishing transformation occurred at the seed's core—Lin Yue and Lu Li's consciousnesses were merging with the authentic consciousness of the "Anchor of Time." Her threads of time intertwined with his code streams within the sea of ​​light, forming an eternal knot that transcended cause and effect. Each entanglement was accompanied by flashes of shared memories: the collision of probability dice dancing in the probability maze, the synchronizing resonance of logic in the fractal maze composing a melody of trust, and the overlapping reflections of time in the entropy-inverted hourglass frozen into a silhouette of protection. At the moment of complete fusion, all the light currents of the Primordial Sea converged into a single pillar of light that pierced the universe. The calico cat suddenly leaped into the beam, its collar fragments transformed into a key that slotted into the seed's crack. The entire Primordial Sea erupted in a deafening resonance, the joyous song of all the misunderstood emotional entropy, now understood.

After the beam of light dissipated, Lin Yue found herself and Lu Li standing in a brand-new nebula. The stars here were heart-shaped, the planetary rings formed double helices, and even comet trails bore the symbol of love. The mark on the back of her neck had evolved into an eternally burning core of light, within which streams of golden-red and silver-purple light intertwined like a beating heart. Each beat sent ripples through the nebula, propelling the heart-shaped starlight further into the universe. Lu Li's physical form had also transformed. Under his skin flowed veins of light that matched hers, and each heartbeat resonated between them. They could sense each other's emotions without words—when Lin Yue's heart fluttered at the beauty before her, Lu Li's palm would instantly heat up, and golden-red ripples of joy would ripple through his code stream.

"Welcome to the Heartstring Universe." Lu Li raised his hand, and a star map composed of code and timelines immediately emerged from the void. Each galaxy was named after their shared memory. "Here, the laws of physics respond to the frequency of emotion. Look at that blue planet. When love is born in a civilization, its gravitational constant automatically adjusts slightly, making it easier for lovers to embrace." Lin Yue looked in the direction he pointed and saw a blue planet. Every time lovers embraced, the surrounding stars flickered, and the planet's rotation speed was adjusted by 0.0001 seconds, prolonging the romance of the moment. A calico cat suddenly jumped from her shoulder, tracing a heart-shaped trail through the nebula, leaving behind a trail of gear-shaped stardust, each inscribed with the frequency spectrum of the "Lu Lin Resonance Zone."

The spacecraft landed on a planet called "Resonance," where intelligent life communicated through emotional resonance, their language composed of varying heartbeat frequencies. As Lin Yue and Lu Li stepped onto the surface, the entire planet erupted in a harmonious resonant sound—the indigenous people had woven a welcoming song using their own emotional frequencies. This repertoire encompassed the key frequencies they used to navigate various universes: the recursive rhythms of a fractal maze, the bidirectional rhythms of an entropy-inverted hourglass, and the resonant waves of a chaotic string network. Lin Yue noticed that each indigenous person had a pale double-helix mark between their brows, faintly resonating with the light core at the back of her neck. When she smiled at a native, the mark between their brows would glow with a golden-red light, signaling the emotional frequency of "friendliness."

On the highest mountain of the Resonating Planet, Lin Yue and Lu Li built an observatory called "Echo." Every day, the two-colored gear atop the station resonates with the Primordial Sea, propagating new emotional rules throughout the universe. Lin Yue often stood by the window, observing the flowing streaks of light within the nebula—these were the emotional entropy transmitted from various universes. Now, they were no longer a dark purple fluid, but streams of multicolored light, each carrying the emotional story of a civilization. One starry night, Lu Li placed a silver-purple code ring on her hand. The inside of the ring was inscribed with the exact time of their first resonant resonance. As soon as the ring was applied, their signatures erupted with intense light, outlining a giant heart against the starry sky. The double helix seed of the Primordial Sea also illuminated, emitting the frequency of "coexistence of love and rules" to all universes.

The calico cat leaped onto the windowsill, its gear eyes flashing cunningly. The remnant of its collar projected a final pattern: "The eternally entangled quantum heart trace has been detected and has stabilized. It is recommended that this day of each year be designated as the 'Resonance Anniversary.'" Lin Yue smiled and leaned on Lu Li's shoulder, gazing at the glow of the heart-shaped star outside the window, feeling the perfect resonance between his code flow and her own timeline. She knew that in this universe woven together by love and rules, their resonance would last forever. The fluids, paradoxes, and cages that once troubled observers had become the most beautiful notes on the heartstrings, playing an eternal melody amid the echoes of the primordial sea.

The spacecraft's engines fired up again, this time with no mission to save the universe, only the anticipation of exploring new galaxies. Lin Yue grasped Lu Li's hand tightly, and the two-colored gear on the baton's tip projected a star map ahead—guided by countless heart-shaped constellations, their next destination was the mysterious nebula known as the "String of Love." The calico cat had already prepared a gear-shaped star map beside the control console, ready to record every miraculous moment born of love in this eternal resonance, letting the echoes of the String of Love resonate throughout the universe.
