Chapter Twenty-Six: Dark Energy
"Dark energy?"
Looking at the phoenix's ghostly look, Lin Lexuan frowned and asked strangely:
"You're talking about dark matter, right? But this is obviously a mass of solid matter, and two dark matter particles collide to produce gamma rays, how can such a solid-like thing be formed? ”
"Your human understanding of the universe is still too one-sided."
Phoenix pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Dark matter is only a part of the energy of the universe, and as for dark energy, it is the highest proportion of energy forms in the entire universe. And dark energy is an extremely powerful energy carrier, one of the conditions for being able to leave the earth and enter the universe to survive is to be able to absorb dark energy without being affected by it. And according to my observation, it is the existence of this dark energy that has caused the human constitution to mutate step by step, and then you have the ability to do so. ”
"And that kind of thing?" Lin Lexuan looked at the bottle in his hand with some solemnity and said.
"That's right. But I just don't understand, how Yan Huang can have such a precious thing, and it is still in the garbage heap......" Looking at the dusty glass bottle, Phoenix fell into deep thought.
"Maybe they don't know what it is?" Lin Lexuan said.
"Probably. Sometimes when mining, it is indeed detected that there is dark matter in the pit, and it may be that the low-level personnel of Yanhuang got this thing by accident, and then they don't know what to do with it before putting it here. And maybe ......."
Speaking of this, a deep light appeared in the phoenix's eyes, and he did not continue.
"Maybe what?" Lin Lexuan asked.
Phoenix hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Maybe it may also be the dark energy legacy left behind after the death or departure of the powerhouses of the major clans from the ancient period. However, no matter what form of dark energy it is, it is not something that can be absorbed by people on Earth at present. ”
At this point, Phoenix pondered for a few seconds and added, "Perhaps, except for that Manhattan doctor." ”
"That means it's precious, but it's not useful to me, is it?" Looking at the light bottle in his hand, Lin Lexuan asked.
"Not necessarily."
Phoenix's tone was a little playful: "It depends on how you use it." ”
"How can I use it?"
Lin Lexuan's tone also became playful, he looked at the phoenix with a little smile and asked.
"I know what to do with it."
Phoenix looked at Lin Lexuan meaningfully, and his tone suddenly became full of temptation: "Do you want me to tell you?" ”
"What conditions do you have?" Lin Lexuan asked in a deep voice.
"Divide half of me when I come out." Phoenix blinked and said.
"Can this thing increase strength?" Lin Lexuan weighed the bottle in his hand and asked.
"Of course. And it can be elevated to a level that you can't even think of. ”
Phoenix continued to say in that very seductive voice, "Of course, if you know how to use it. ”
"What if I don't know?" Lin Lexuan asked.
"Then this thing isn't much better for you than that pile of garbage." Phoenix pouted.
"Okay...... Count you ruthless. ”
Lin Lexuan said helplessly: "When you come out, I will divide half of you." ”
Phoenix smiled, nodded and said, "That's it." You first go to the big drawer box next to the shelf and get a few titanium syringes out. ”
Lin Lexuan opened the drawer, took out a fifty-milliliter syringe, and asked, "This should be enough, right?" ”
"It should be about the same."
Phoenix glanced at the syringe and said, "Now insert the needle into the cork at the mouth of the bottle, and draw all this dark energy into the syringe." Be careful not to leak out. ”
"What happens if I miss it?" Lin Lexuan inserted the needle into the wooden plug and began to slowly absorb the dark energy.
"It's not going to happen, the dark energy will dissipate directly."
Phoenix rolled her eyes and said, "But waste is a great crime, especially something so precious. You give me a little attention. ”
"Alright, it's all drawn."
Lin Lexuan looked at the black substance full of needles, and asked at the phoenix, "And then?" ”
"Then find the artery in your arm and try to get it in as little as you can." Phoenix said.
Lin Lexuan rolled up his sleeves and pierced the syringe into his skin.
He gently pushed the syringe, and after a few seconds, he frowned and asked, "Why don't I feel anything at all?" ”
"If you feel anything, it's weird."
Phoenix rolled her eyes and continued, "Let's see if you can feel the presence of that dark energy in your body?" ”
"I feel it.
Since Lin Lexuan's blood was fused with the Phoenix Flame, he easily felt something different from the flame in his blood: "And then? ”
"Now is the hardest place."
The phoenix said with a solemn expression: "You use the phoenix flame to protect your whole body, and then direct the dark energy to your heart." ”
Lin Lexuan did as he was told. But just as the dark energy, which was less than a quarter the size of a fingernail of a small thumb, passed through his heart, he suddenly felt a throbbing from his soul!
Then, the bone-chilling cold erupted violently around his heart, and the phoenix flame that protected his heart was suddenly suppressed to the minimum, and a layer of hoarfrost appeared on Lin Lexuan's skin almost instantly!
"How...... This...... It's so cold! ”
Lin Lexuan shivered, his clothes turned into hard shells, and his exposed skin had been frozen to blue and white!
"Hurry up with the Phoenix Flame!" Phoenix shouted.
"Last time it was hot, this time it's cold. Why do I have to suffer this sin every time! ”
Lin Lexuan was angry in his heart, he forcibly urged the cluster of phoenix flames near his heart, so that it wrapped that dark energy and began to burn desperately!
And with the scorching of the phoenix flames, Lin Lexuan's almost frozen body slowly began to turn from blue and white back to its normal color. However, just when Phoenix and Lin Xiangyu breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Lexuan, who had just returned to normal, suddenly changed again.
His face twisted suddenly, and then, black mist emerged from all around him, instantly covering his figure!
"What's wrong with him?!" Looking at Lin Lexuan's state, Lin Xiangyu roared angrily at the phoenix.
Phoenix's eyes seemed to bulge, she sighed helplessly, simply stopped looking at Lin Lexuan, and turned her gaze back to Lin Muhan who was closed and cross-legged.
"Speak! What's going on? Lin Xiangyu roared.
"How do I know, it shouldn't be like this under normal circumstances......"
Phoenix's tone was a little weak: "It should be normal for him to start refining those dark energies now, and then turn them into the purest energy to feed himself." ”
"Is this called normal?" Lin Xiangyu stomped on the ground, he circled around Lin Lexuan, and roared angrily.
Looking at Lin Xiangyu, who was on the verge of going berserk, a drop of cold sweat flowed from Phoenix's forehead, and he muttered to himself:
"It really shouldn't be like that...... What the hell is going on?! ”
………………………………………………
Lin Lexuan is indeed in trouble.
Before, he was indeed smelting that grain of dark energy according to the instructions of the phoenix. But just as he broke through the outer layer of this dark energy and was about to melt its core, the mutation abruptly rose.
A feeling that was so cold to the soul suddenly diffused from this dark energy, and the phoenix flame that was scorching it turned from fiery red to pure black after only resisting it for a moment, and there was no trace of a blazing feeling coming from the flames!
And this cold feeling broke through all the flame defense lines that Lin Lexuan desperately set up, and rushed straight into his mind. Subsequently, Lin Lexuan lost his intuition.
I don't know how long it took, Lin Lexuan opened his eyes. He quickly rolled over and sat up, surveying his surroundings.
But around him, nothing could be seen but bottomless darkness.
"Where am I?"
Lin Lexuan walked aimlessly in the dark, without light, without sound, without feeling. Nothing but the touch of the ground beneath your feet.
"Where is this?!"
Lin Lexuan roared, and his voice quickly disappeared into the vast darkness, and he didn't even hear the echo he expected.
He flicked his fingers, and again, there was not a trace of fire in his hand.
"Hell yes."
Lin Lexuan sat on the ground with his buttocks. But at the moment when he sat on the ground, the ground under his feet suddenly emptied, and his whole person was instantly suspended in the air!
"Nima!"
Lin Lexuan jumped like thunder, no, he couldn't jump now, he could only swim desperately in the air now, waving his arms and legs with his teeth and claws, and letting out bursts of frantic roars.
He danced for a while, then reluctantly stopped. He gasped twice, made a swimming-like motion, and struggled to float forward.
Soon, however, he was completely disappointed, for there was not even half a reference around, and he couldn't even figure out whether he was moving forward or backward.
"Calm, calm."
Lin Lexuan clenched his fists, he forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and stopped his useless movements.
"It's all the dark energy!"
Lin Lexuan gritted his teeth angrily, and an inexplicable anger rushed to his heart again. He shouted again, his arms fluttering desperately in the air.
"Wait!"
But at this moment, Lin Lexuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, he stopped his useless body movements, and frowned.
"Although I am not an absolutely calm person, I am not so impatient and irritable, why did I start to lose my temper as soon as I got here?"
"Do you mean...... What's affecting my state of mind? ”
Thinking of this, Lin Lexuan's eyes were completely solemn, and he forcibly suppressed the urge to yell wildly, forcing himself to concentrate and continue to think.
"If it wants me to keep me impatient. So if I'm completely calm down now, maybe something will show up and provoke my anger. What would that be......"
But just as he thought of this, his body suddenly sank, as if this dark and boundless world suddenly had gravity, and then he fell like a lead ball to the ground!
"Ahhhh!!!h
Lin Lexuan desperately used the wind ability of his whole body, but he didn't react at all, his mouth was filled with wind, and his eyes that didn't have time to react were spinning chaotically, and his brain was filled with the fear that he was about to fall to death-
Bang!
Lin Lexuan fell to the ground. He rolled over violently, groping his whole body frantically.
"Am I not dead yet?"
He laughed maniacally, but then his laughter stopped.
Because he saw his surroundings clearly.
He stood up from the crowd, and in front of the crowd there were two half-grown children tied up.
A soldier in military uniform was giving an impassioned speech to the crowd, and several familiar elders stood aside, sneering at what was happening.
The rain crackled down on him.
Unquenchable anger rushed from his heart.

(I'd like to explain something about dark energy, and I hope the majority of science readers don't get too caught up in it.) This is just a setting of the worldview, and it is a conjecture about the unknown, not an academic research report. This book will not take the science fiction route, nor will it take the Xiuzhen route that was vaguely mentioned before. The appearance of dark energy is just an explanation and a pit that lasts until the end of the book, so please don't pay too much attention to it. )
