The Cyber ​​Galaxy of Cultivation

Chapter 170 World-destroying matter
Amidst Nan Ling's various twists and turns, the Purple Iris finally docked at that star system to rest and recuperate.

The star in this star system is very small and obviously did not have much material when it was formed, because the accompanying planet is only a solitary rocky planet.

To be honest, this rocky planet will even be removed from the ranks of planets, and it can be called an asteroid.

Fortunately, as long as there are star systems, regardless of their size, the material in a star system will always be enough for the Purple Iris.

There is also a medium-sized fusion reactor on the Purple Iris, which can produce all conventional materials as long as materials can be collected.

So the Purple Iris docked on a rocky planet with only 1/2 standard gravity to rest and conduct research while collecting materials.

There were many crew members who could help this time. Anyway, Mo could concentrate on his research and not worry about anything else.

After another month of this, Mo finally walked out of the laboratory with a confident expression.

"I already know the characteristics of this thing."

After she finished speaking, she took out a stone.

"I picked this stone randomly on this planet. The recorded mass at that time was 1.31kg."

"And now, I have irradiated it with virtual matter for 20 days, and only 0.77kg is left. It has lost 41% of its mass without any change in its appearance and structure."

Nan Ling asked: "Xu Zhi?"

Mo said: "This is my name for the dark matter we have observed. It does not exist in the form of particles, but more like the existence of invisible forces such as spiritual power."

"And it will continue to seize physical matter and transform its form of existence."

"We have also seen the result of the transformation. The mass of the stone has decreased but other physical properties have not changed in any way."

Nan Ling asked: "Then what will happen after the virtual substance seizes the matter?"

Mo said: "This is the magic. When a substance infected by virtual matter loses mass, it will also produce the same mass and radiate around in the form of elementary particles."

Nan Ling discovered a question: "What about the original substance? What will happen to the substance that has lost its mass?"

Mo said: "Maybe it disappears directly, or..."

Mrs. Antarctica suddenly said quietly: "Or become a ghost."

Everyone was shocked, because Mrs. Anji seemed to have changed into a different person just at that moment.

Everyone looked over and saw some sweat on her head as she said, "I seem to have remembered something, but it's not clear enough."

She seemed to find it ridiculous and never mentioned the word 'ghost'.

But Nan Ling couldn't help but take it to heart after hearing this. He asked, "Do you know how to deal with those 'ghosts'?"

Mrs. Anji smiled bitterly and shook her head and said, "I don't know."

She then looked at Mo and said, "Do you have any way to prevent the erosion of this virtual essence?"

Mo nodded and said, "Yes, I have designed an instrument that takes advantage of the fact that virtual matter can jump through empowerment."

"As long as we create a large enough empowering magnetic field, we can resist the erosion of this virtual substance."

Mrs. Antarctica took a deep breath and nodded and said, "Then, let's do it."

Nan Ling said: "If this is the case, are we not prepared enough?"

Mrs. Anji shook her head and said: "That's enough. You also know that this kind of power is similar to the properties of spiritual power to a certain extent. It can be restricted and restrained by spiritual power."

“And, I felt my calling.”

"I am here with a mission, and so are you, my son."

Nan Ling was stunned and didn't know why Mrs. Anji's tone suddenly became so serious.

Then he suddenly thought of something and said, "You mean, the existence of this virtual substance is related to the Antarctic Immortality?" Mrs. Antarctica nodded.

Everyone was speechless for a while.

Mo broke the silence: "Speaking of which, I have always had a doubt."

"That is, since this kind of virtual matter will jump in energy level and produce new matter after encountering the entity, then these virtual matters existing in that star field will theoretically disappear sooner or later."

Mrs. Antarctica said: "That's the problem, it's expanding, fast!"

"It has a source, and we must turn off this source, otherwise everything in the current world will become a shadow of the past, and the matter in the entire universe will return to its most primitive form and start over."

Nan Ling's scalp went numb after hearing this, and he said, "This sounds like a weapon that can completely restart the world."

Mo Ye nodded carefully and said: "Just like the Locust, it is the weapon that restarts all life."

They all have a strange feeling in their hearts. This era and this world are really full of traces of artificial intervention.

When they asked more questions, Mrs. Antarctic became somewhat ignorant again, and did not trigger any other memories.

There is no choice but to board the immortal boat at least once, hoping to find Mrs. Antarctic's memory there and find answers for everyone.

It was under this situation that Nan Ling and Mo worked overtime together.

They went to great lengths to install an empowering magnetic field on the Purple Iris. This was no small project, and the complexity was beyond imagination.

Fortunately, they got two folding cargo boxes at the previous supply station of the Immortality Society. One of the boxes was food, and the other was filled with various high-precision mechanical parts.

It is precisely because of these parts that the empowering magnetic field designed by Mo can finally achieve the desired power.

Using existing parts to design instruments is also one of Mo's talents.

Nan Ling also provided tremendous help during this process.

If Nan Ling could only help Mo Da when doing this kind of thing in the past, now he can share a large part of the work for Mo.

Even if it's just some lower-tech jobs.

But this has reflected Nan Ling's progress. His thinking ability has improved by leaps and bounds, and even Mo was surprised by how quickly his thoughts turned.

"Looking at your state, I can't help but want to try to put the essence into your brain."

Nan Ling asked strangely: "Why not?"

She lifted one side of her bangs, revealing a piece of metal implanted on her smooth forehead and said, "Because of it."

"Because of my family's heritage, I still had some modifications to my head."

"This implanted component can help me better control the magnetic field. This is also the key to my ability to easily break through the eight-layer foundation building and now reach the completion of the foundation building."

"And if I want to practice the practice of inserting essence into the brain, I'm afraid that it will cause serious rejection reactions and eventually cause some unpredictable effects."

When Nan Ling heard this, she could only express regret.

This may be the tragedy of this era. Even the path of spiritual practice has incorporated too many technological elements, making it impossible to continue the original original practice method.

Mo patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry about me. In fact, this component itself has been increasing my thinking ability, and the effect may not be worse than your essence entering the brain."

"Originally, after we returned to the ancient domain, I was thinking about taking you through such a transformation. But now you have your own way... which is good."

Hearing this, Nan Ling showed a helpless smile and said, "Well, it turns out that I just caught up in my sister's footsteps. It seems that I have always been a pursuer."

Mo sighed helplessly: "A chaser like you makes me feel a lot of pressure."
