Chapter 433: Chapter 218: Cause Speculation, the Law of Cosmic Decay, the Divine King (2)

"Keep this under wraps for now. Don’t tell anyone. We’ll talk more when I get back."

He was leaving this afternoon. No matter how many questions he had, as long as they weren’t life-or-death, he couldn’t let himself get distracted.

Besides, Lin Feng had too many questions that he needed to ask the woman beside him privately.

After Lin Feng gave the solemn order, Han Yuxin nodded, her own heart in turmoil.

Fortunately, Lin Feng had already advanced to a Tier Three Life Form. Not to mention his formidable strength, his lifespan could now last for a thousand years.

On top of that, the situation at Jin City Base hadn’t stabilized yet, so the issue of an heir could be put on the back burner for now.

It was just that the escape route Han Yuxin had originally prepared for herself now seemed impossible to pave...

Seeing Han Yuxin nod seriously in agreement, Lin Feng immediately stepped on the gas and drove away.

On the way to the South Suburb Industrial District, Lin Feng stared at the road ahead and asked in a low voice:

"When you used the Hive Will on me before, did you contaminate my genes with Assimilation?"

Ling Yi immediately put on an innocent expression and wailed theatrically,

"I swear to the heavens!"

"While a Divine Realm does have that effect, I can tell you unequivocally, no!"

"Especially after that! I swear, as a Mother Empress Avatar and the master of the Infinite Reproduction Realm, I don’t smell a single trace of the Zerg Race on you."

"In fact, with people like Shen Jie, or those Genetic Warriors bred by humans, I can instinctively sense them the moment their Zerg cells are even slightly activated."

"If I’m close enough, I can use a bit of Realm Power to control the assimilated tissues in their bodies, just like how a High-tier Mother Empress controls a Tier Two Tiger Spine Zerg."

"If you were really a Zerg Race Mixed Blood Species, wouldn’t I have controlled you immediately and turned you into my puppet?"

As she spoke, Ling Yi’s expression turned grave.

"Let’s be honest. Haven’t you ever suspected the source of your identity and abilities?"

"A Superpower like yours that can change the Attributes of particles is not something a low-level race could possibly master. The technical principles behind it would require, at minimum, a Tier Seven Civilization on par with a Tier Seven Divine Realm..."

"And clearly, humanity’s genetic potential is nowhere near that level. Otherwise, a human Tier Four Cosmic Life would have evolved naturally long ago!"

"Even among us, the Zerg Race, only the one and only Zerg God can master the ability of compliant atomic fission."

"But you can actually defy the law of universal decay, freely changing the properties of matter both compliantly and counter-actively..."

"Not even Deities can master such an ability."

Hearing Ling Yi analyze his Superpower for the first time, her tone filled with incredulous shock, the furrow in Lin Feng’s brow deepened.

"What are ’compliant fission’ and the ’law of universal decay’?"

Ling Yi, who had been about to launch into a lecture, stopped short. Remembering that Lin Feng’s knowledge was basically at the level of a cosmic native, she quickly reviewed the definitions from human science, found the corresponding concepts, and then slowly explained:

"’Compliant fission’ is just atomic nuclear fission. It usually occurs naturally in heavy atoms, like those at the end of the periodic table you humans created—uranium-235 or plutonium-239, which are abundant on Blue Star."

"They’re also the raw materials humans use to make atomic bombs."

"And decomposition, or fission, is a process that moves from large mass to small mass, from high-energy order to low-energy chaos. This aligns with the cosmic definition of entropy increase. It means that within a system, everything gradually moves toward chaotic, disordered annihilation over time."

"So, from the very beginning of the Cosmos, the material world has been a process of concentrated high energy dispersing into a low-energy state. ’Compliant fission’ represents developing in accordance with this cosmic entropy increase."

"This is the law that represents the dark truth of the Cosmos. The cold universe is cold because it is destined for a cold annihilation..."

"And in this process, life exists by consuming high-energy matter or others of its kind to survive."

"’Life feeds on negative entropy.’ That’s a correct definition from your human scientists."

"Because even Deities need to use a vast amount of both compliant and counter-active nuclear processes to draw the sustenance they need for their long existence."

"However, the terrifying thing is, the more High-tier Life Forms there are, the faster the Cosmos’s annihilation becomes."

"But behind this cruel truth, there is still one viable path..."

Lin Feng only half-understood, but he grasped the main point:

"The ’counter-law’ you just mentioned?"

Ling Yi nodded and snapped her fingers.

"Exactly!"

"Decomposing matter is simple. Even a low-level civilization like you humans can do it by smashing atomic nuclei in a large particle collider, though the energy cost is a bit high."

"The truly difficult part is overcoming the strong nuclear force to fuse low-mass atoms into high-mass atoms. That is the only way to reverse the law of cosmic decay—in other words, the law of entropy."

"And the simplest manifestation of this principle is the source of Energy that nurtures the vast majority of life..."

As she spoke, Ling Yi pointed at the sky above.

The brilliant midsummer sun was radiating a ceaseless supply of light and heat. Plants used photosynthesis to capture it, making it the power source for all life on Blue Star.

A look of realization dawned on Lin Feng.

"You mean the Sun?"

"Stars are nuclear fusion. So that’s one of the counter-laws?"

Ling Yi nodded, slightly gratified.

"Correct. Compared to the kinetic energy of the few particles that escape during fission, fusion can release a much more immense amount of Energy. And it can continue almost indefinitely, until all things return to one and the Cosmos reboots."

"To make a simple analogy, when you humans use uranium-235 for fission, you can release about 200 units of energy, and uranium is already a heavy element. But for the most basic counter-law process, hydrogen fusion, an equal mass can release 826 units of energy..."
