Genesis of the Cretaceous: How I Saved the Dinosaurs and Built a Civilization

What if the dinosaurs never went extinct—and instead built a civilization of their own? Chu Ye stumbles upon a dinosaur egg fossil that holds a secret: a temporal anchor linking his consciousness to the age of dinosaurs. He finds himself able to roam freely through the prehistoric world of tens of millions of years ago, witnessing creatures long lost to time. Then the cataclysm comes. A colossal asteroid hurtles toward Earth in the late Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous, 66 million years ago. As terrified dinosaurs scatter in every direction, Chu Ye instinctively waves his hand—and a giant phantom hand appears in the sky, swatting the meteor away as if it were nothing. The skies clear, and life continues. Only later does Chu Ye grasp the magnitude of what he has done: the entire biological history of Earth has been irrevocably changed. The dinosaurs do not perish. Generation after generation, they thrive. From blood-soaked predation to the first glimmers of intelligence, from primitive tribes to walled city-states, from early kingdoms to interstellar empires—they ascend to the stars. And he is the origin of it all. He saved their lives, ignited their wisdom, and became their creator god. Until one day, a starfaring dinosaur civilization from across the Milky Way returns to Earth after countless millennia—and Chu Ye must face what he has set in motion.
