200, Multiverse (15th Update)
It wasn't until this moment that Luo Xiu realized that humans were high-dimensional creatures.
The Ancient One's point of view made him suddenly enlightened.
"Each dimension is actually an isolated plane, and these planes come together to form the most common sphere of matter, which is most evident in the simplest microcosm of matter, where the particles themselves are spheres." The ancient master said, "In the high-dimensional world, particles exist in different forms, and when humans observe the particles, they take on the form of particles in the three-dimensional world, but these particles form a string in the high-dimensional world and have the nature of waves......"
"String Theory and Wave-Particle Duality." Luo Xiu suddenly realized that the worldview described by the ancient master had already been scientifically demonstrated.
"Yes." The Ancient One mage smiled lightly, "Human beings have already made some achievements in peeking into the nature of the universe. β
The more Luo Xiu listened, the more energetic he became, and he hurriedly continued to ask for advice.
The Ancient One was also not stingy with his knowledge: "Xiu, how much do you know about the multiverse and parallel universes?" β
Luo Xiu slyly threw the question back to the ancient first mage: "Let's ask the mage to give advice." β
The Ancient One mage smiled knowingly: "The universe we live in is not monotonous, in fact, it has infinite possibilities, and you and I, and the current world, are only one of these infinite possibilities. β
Luo Xiu immediately understood what the ancient one mage meant: "SchrΓΆdinger's cat." The uncertainty principle and the quantum superposition principle make it possible for quanta in the microscopic realm to be multi-posable, and these possibilities will only become certain when quanta are observed. But the observer only observes a certain possibility of the quantum, not all of its possibilities. β
The Ancient One Master explained what Luo Xiu said in an easy-to-understand manner: "This is not just the case, not only quantum, but also human beings and any matter in this universe. For example, this cup......"
As he spoke, the Ancient One Master raised the teacup in his hand.
ββ¦β¦ I can let go and break it after three seconds, but I can also break it without letting go, so may I ask you, is this cup broken after three seconds? β
"It's broken, it's not broken." Luo Xiudao.
"That's right." Gu nodded, "The cup exists in both states, it is broken and it is not broken, but we cannot advance into the world of its two states at the same time, because these two different states form two very different parallel universes, and we as 'observers' can only enter one of them." β
Because of the different states and potential possibilities of matter, reality is divided into countless different but interrelated parallel universes, and the probability of the "observer" entering these parallel universes is not the same, and the probability of the observer entering a certain multiverse is the "fate" of the observer.
Luo Xiu was shocked again: "So probability control and divination are two important disciplines of the occult!" β
"Yes." Gu laughed, "God is obsessed with rolling dice. β
"But behind God's dice rolling, there are all possibilities coexisting, that is, God still doesn't roll the dice, and it's only us, the 'observers', who roll the dice."
"So divination came into being?" Luo Xiu finally touched the door of the occult.
Gu Yi nodded approvingly: "You are indeed a genius. Divination is the study of these probabilities β the sages discovered that an observer's entry into the world of different probabilities is actually traceable, and by studying these traces they can determine which of the thousands of possibilities you are in, and based on this principle, the diviner can also speculate on the future direction and fate of the observer with a high probability. β
"This is the multiverse and the parallel universe,......" Luo Xiu took a deep breath and said slowly, "We are in the multiverse, and each individual is divided into countless 'observers', each of whom lives within one possibility, and all the possibilities combined are the whole of the 'observer'. β
"That's right." Gu Yi nodded with satisfaction, and pointed at Luo Xiudao, "You are actually not a complete Luo Xiu, but just an observer of many Luo Xiu living in the current possibility, and I am not an ancient one, but an observer of an infinite number of ancient ones living in this current parallel universe...... We see a possibility, but we are not the whole story. β
"And if I can keep switching between these possibilities, from one Luo Xiu's 'observer' to another Luo Xiu's 'observer'......" Luo Xiu thought boldly.
"Then congratulations, you have a good chance of becoming the strongest in the multiverse." Ancient One said with a smile.
"Wait!" At this time, Luo Xiu suddenly thought of a question, and said excitedly, "If we are in a multi-possibility, but what we observe is one of the possibilities, then doesn't it mean that there is still matter in the dimension that we can't observe?" β
"Yes." "We can't see a teacup broken and intact at the same time, but in fact a teacup is broken and kept intact. β
"In this way, the existence of dark matter is reasonably explained - dark matter that we cannot see or observe, but dark matter has a concrete impact on the real world." Luo Xiu suddenly had an epiphany, "All this makes sense!" β
Humans have discovered dark matter since 1922, but this matter is too ethereal.
They cannot be seen, or even directly observed, human beings have only indirectly discovered a mysterious phenomenon when calculating normal matter - the matter that human beings can observe in the universe only accounts for 4.9% of the total mass energy of the universe, and there are still 95.1% of the matter (and energy) in the vast universe that cannot be directly observed by humans, that is, dark matter (and dark energy).
"So the existence of dark matter actually proves the existence of an infinite number of possibilities in the multiverse, and the sum of these possibilities constitutes the real universe, and we are only one of these many possibilities, is that 4.9%?" Luo Xiu asked.
"It's an interesting idea." The Ancient One Master said noncommittally, "I don't go as deep as you think. β
Luo Xiu took a deep breath with satisfaction, he really benefited a lot from this conversation with the ancient one.
"And I guess with your current experience, you don't need to continue to study contracts, do you? Casting spells is just an entry-level difficulty for you......" Ancient One mage said with a smile.
"It's really not that hard." Luo Xiu nodded.
"I'm going to introduce you to some of the Kama Taj artifacts in a moment, after all, humans have evolved into higher beings because they have mastered the tools. By the way, do you have your own ritual tools? "Ancient one.
"Yes." Luo Xiu nodded slightly, then took out the magic wand on his body and handed it to Gu Yi, "Mage, this is my self-made magic weapon, please take a look." β
A wand forged from Ulu Metal, with Thor's hair as the core of the wand, and using the Cosmic Cube to provide energy.
The Ancient One's eyes lit up with a strange look: "I think with it, you don't need any magic weapons from Kama Taj anymore." β
