Chapter 799 - 495: Pushing an Entire Planet to Crash Into the Sun (Part 2)

Chapter 799: Chapter 495: Pushing an Entire Planet to Crash Into the Sun (Part 2)

In the cosmos, gravity is ever-present, and Wang Ye naturally could make use of the Sun’s gravity to accelerate the process of this orbital imbalance collapse.

Moreover, he had mastered skills like Shrinking Inches and the Curvature Engine. This ability is absolutely a pivotal skill in the universe, similar in importance to electricity for humanity.

As the saying goes, give me a lever long enough and I could move the Earth. The lever theory is universally applicable in this situation. Wang Ye only needed to find a suitable fulcrum. This fulcrum was the curvature bubble, which can fold space and shorten the time taken to cross a distance. To a stable system, it is undoubtedly destructive, but Wang Ye is not yet proficient in using curvature bubbles, so he could only do his best.

Gradually, the period of maintaining the Law of Heaven and Earth came to an end. Wang Ye’s body was completely shattered and reassembled into a body about 1.9 meters tall. After a continuous ten-minute bombardment and devourment, the size of Mercury was visibly reduced. About half of its mass had been blasted into the cosmos as if a gigantic meteor, several kilometers in diameter, had struck it hard. This made pushing Mercury’s orbital deviation simpler.

However, after an all-out release, Wang Ye had fallen into a period of weakness. The energy within his body was nearly depleted, and the Nuclear Fusion Organ that used to provide energy output had also collapsed, unable to generate energy. He could only rely on the small amount of energy provided by sunlight to restore his body.

Sitting cross-legged at the center of the chaotic crater, he heals his body’s injuries, but he doesn’t halt there. Once conscious, he immediately uses the Control Ability, bringing all nearby asteroids under his control and moving them this way. Countless asteroids, pulled as if it were rainfall, with a total mass equivalent to nearly one-fifth of Mercury’s, were drawn over.

Wang Ye closed his eyes and placed a Curvature Engine in front of each asteroid, amplifying their speed and power while initiating a Curvature Engine on Mercury to continuously negate its orbital kinetic energy. As seconds ticked away, numerous asteroids finally entered Mercury’s exosphere, transforming into countless fireballs that rained down on its surface.

Boom!! Boom!!

Wang Ye suddenly opened his eyes, stood up, and amidst the meteor rain, maximized the Curvature Engine. In an instant, the terrifying kinetic energy abruptly halted Mercury’s orbital trajectory. Although it was just a moment, the negated kinetic energy was enough to significantly reduce Mercury’s orbital speed. Once its speed decreased and slightly deviated from its path, it would begin uncontrollably falling towards the Sun.

All of Wang Ye’s operations used the Sun as the fulcrum, enlarging each effect with its gravitational field.

Executing this combo,

at last, Mercury completely detached from the critical point of orbital balance and visibly moved towards the Sun.

Meanwhile, on Earth, astronomers at observatories continued to closely observe Mercury’s movement. Next to them, Old Yi was also intensely watching Mercury in the night sky. He received a telescope from his subordinate, and with the telescope’s magnification, the outline of Mercury in the night sky became much clearer.

As they continued their observation, they gradually realized that the giant figure on Mercury seemed to be disappearing, replaced by a massive crater on the planet’s surface. Old Yi and others immediately realized that Wang Ye had reverted to his original form.

But a greater question arose in everyone’s mind,

What exactly was Wang Ye’s purpose?

Was he merely venting his strength on Mercury for display?

If that were so, it seemed rather meaningless.

And frankly, quite mad.

But the next moment, someone suddenly noticed an anomaly and said:

"Wait a minute... Did Mercury shift slightly to the left? Or was it just my imagination?"

Having witnessed the events earlier, they dared not disregard the slightest perceived change, as any illusion might be an actual occurrence. To Wang Ye, nothing was impossible; it was only a matter of what humanity dared to believe.

"Did Mercury move?" The surrounding astronomers, upon hearing this, did not dare doubt and immediately crowded around the telescope to closely observe Mercury.

They employed various methods to meticulously observe Mercury’s trajectory and position in hopes of verifying this suspicion.

After a few minutes of observation, they finally confirmed it.

Mercury indeed moved, albeit by such a small margin that it was unobservable, but it definitely shifted and deviated from its original trajectory.

Though it was just a tiny bit, it was already shockingly monumental, enough to shake all of human civilization!

Realizing this, all the astronomers dared not delay and promptly reported this discovery to the relevant parties.

Instantly, observatories and astronomy enthusiast forum groups across Earth were in uproar.

"Holy shit! Mercury has started moving!!"

"Are you kidding? Isn’t it just an illusion?"

"It can’t be an illusion! It’s already in the news!"

"Wang Ye’s power, will it really cause Mercury to deviate from its orbit?"

"In the universe, as long as a planet’s orbital balance collapses, it will rush uncontrollably towards the Sun like a car with the gas pedal floored."

"Or, Wang Ye’s original intent was precisely this; because randomly hitting Mercury appears utterly meaningless, I believe Wang Ye wouldn’t do something so pointless."

"Also, if you observe closely, Wang Ye’s impact direction always turns towards the Sun. So, there might be a great likelihood that his main objective was to push Mercury towards the Sun."

"Isn’t he really going to destroy Mercury today?"

"Then the question arises, what exactly is his reason for destroying Mercury? Did he find something that led him to take this action?"

"I believe he is likely protecting something, or perhaps there is something on Mercury he needs. He wouldn’t go to such lengths just to destroy a planet without reason!"

At this moment, even the International Extraordinary Response Alliance, which was also monitoring Mercury, felt deep despair upon observing Mercury’s orbital deviation. To alter the orbit of a planet, how terrifying must Wang Ye’s power be to accomplish such a feat by himself? In the sci-fi novel Wandering Earth, it took the entire power of a planet and centuries of development to barely accomplish such a thing. Even then, many people criticized it as impossible.

Yet, Wang Ye, incredibly, used his own body to accomplish this impossible task.

······················

·····················

As the heated discussions continued on Earth,

In the cosmos, Wang Ye had already left Mercury’s exosphere, entering deep space, gazing down upon Mercury. Watching it slowly veer off-course, inching towards the Sun, he couldn’t help but sigh softly.

Even though Wang Ye had meticulously executed every step, the entirety of Mercury’s collision with the Sun remained immensely prolonged. It might take weeks, perhaps months, or even years.

On the scale of the cosmos, days, weeks, months are astonishingly fleeting, like mere moments.

Therefore, after disrupting Mercury’s orbit, Wang Ye had no intention of continuing to wait.

At any rate, his purpose was achieved, and soon, Mercury would crash into the Sun,

and by then, boundless Merit would pour into Wang Ye, elevating his power to a higher tier.

Upon understanding this, Wang Ye slowly turned around and soared towards Earth.
