Chapter 499 - 345: Palm Nuclear Fusion Experiment_2

These people can perform very cool performances by coordinating with combustible substances like alcohol and gasoline, especially jugglers, who coordinate their bodily movements and special oral techniques. After ingesting some flammable liquid, they quickly spray it out and ignite it at the moment of release, creating a dazzling fire-breathing effect.

It looks as if they can freely control the element of fire, but in reality, this juggling act must rely on the cooperation of combustibles to be performed. Without combustibles, the flame is absolutely impossible to appear.

Flames are actually composed of visible light and heat energy produced by material undergoing chemical reactions. When certain substances react with oxygen, they burn, releasing a significant amount of heat and light. Normally, flames are produced by solid materials (such as wood, paper, silk, etc.) or liquid materials (such as gasoline, alcohol, diesel, etc.) reacting with oxygen during heating. These substances undergo combustion reactions, producing oxides and heat, thus forming the visible part of the flames. The color and shape of the flames depend on the type and conditions of the burning material, such as combustion temperature, oxygen concentration, and wind speed.

This means that flames must have combustibles and oxygen to be generated.

However, at this moment Wang Ye’s palm obviously has no combustibles. The only thing that can be called combustible is his flesh and blood, but his flesh and blood aren’t being consumed at all, this shows that the flame actually emerged out of thin air without a combustible as a foundation.

Actually, this flame is an element formed by his palm conducting extremely microscopic nuclear fusion reactions, looking like a very stable flame, but in reality, it is a continuously exploding nuclear reaction ball. He can use the "Reconstruction of All Things" ability to create nuclear fusion ingredients, that is, light atomic nuclei, and let these ingredients collide at high speed to form a small-scale nuclear fusion.

Just like the Sun, the Sun looks like a ball of extremely high temperature fireball, but actually, oxygen is very scarce on the Sun, with almost no combustibles. According to the principle of flame formation, it’s impossible for flames to appear on the Sun. However, the surface of the Sun is always filled with elements similar to flames, which, when seen from Earth, appear like a perpetually burning furnace. This is because the Sun is constantly conducting nuclear fusion reactions, continuously releasing energy through nuclear fusion. This energy radiates to the cosmos in the form of light and heat, appearing almost in the shape of flames.

Therefore, the thing in Wang Ye’s hand isn’t actually flames, it just looks like flames.

Realizing he seems capable of freely controlling nuclear fusion, Wang Ye was initially overjoyed.

Nuclear fusion is the fundamental technology for infinite energy. If he can indeed freely perform nuclear fusion, it means he has acquired inexhaustible energy.

But moments later, Wang Ye’s joy turned into disappointment because he discovered his nuclear fusion was actually a very unstable and uncontrollable nuclear fusion, like the uncontrollable explosion akin to hydrogen bombs and nuclear bombs. However, a nuclear bomb is actually nuclear fission that releases radiation pollution, whereas a hydrogen bomb involves nuclear fusion reactions, specifically designed for explosive and defective nuclear fusion to achieve more thorough explosions.

If that’s all, Wang Ye could absorb a certain amount of energy, but the issue was he found that the energy consumed for creating nuclear fusion was always more than the energy absorbed.

That means every time he releases nuclear fusion, the energy within his body decreases rather than increases.

This discovery turned Wang Ye’s mood back into the depths of despair.

It seems this ability can only be used for attack or showing off for now. If he truly wants to acquire infinite energy, there’s a long way to go.

However, this ability used for attack can indeed cause considerable destructive power. The momentary nuclear fusion reaction is enough to cause the temperature within the palm to soar to hundreds of thousands of degrees, capable of instantaneously dissolving any metal material, far superior to the Laser Eyes Throwing Skill. The only flaw is its uncontrollability; the explosion can only occur within the palm.

Therefore, in actual combat, Wang Ye needs to skillfully approach the opponent with swift footwork and press his palm onto the target area to cause effective damage, unable to conduct long-range attacks.

That doesn’t present much difficulty for Wang Ye. What he is most skilled in is speed—subsonic, or even sonic speeds are enough for him to instantly approach any target for precise strikes.

Wang Ye reached out his hand, condensing a ball of plasma in his palm, then quickly conducted a nuclear fusion on a microscopic level.

Swish!!!

A burst of scorching flames with temperatures of hundreds of thousands of degrees erupted instantly, and Wang Ye swiftly pressed it onto the gigantic rock beneath him,

Only to see the flames penetrate the rock effortlessly; Wang Ye didn’t feel any resistance at all. A pit approximately thirty centimeters deep with a diameter of ten centimeters was left on the rock.

This shows the destructive power of this thing,

Even if replaced by a plasma cutter, it wouldn’t cause this kind of damage.

Although the stone is brittle, its heat-resistant performance is still very strong, much higher than the melting point of most metals.

But just pressing lightly Wang Ye can burn such a deep hole instantly; the instantaneous temperature must be hundreds of thousands, even millions of degrees.

If pressed onto a tank, Wang Ye believes the tank would be dismantled by him with bare hands.

In a certain sense, as long as he can get close, he can destroy anything on Earth. Unfortunately, currently, his defense power isn’t strong enough, there are still many things he cannot approach.

Additionally, the phenomenon of flames generated by palm nuclear fusion,

also reminds Wang Ye of the time he used Reconstruction of All Things to release the phenomenon of Laser Eyes. Laser Eyes, the formation principle of that thing actually bears some resemblance to current nuclear fusion.

Lightning is plasma, and nuclear fusion requires high-density, high-temperature plasma environments. The relatively stable internal heat vision is very suitable for nuclear fusion experiments.

Wang Ye has a vague premonition that as long as he adjusts certain internal parameters, he might be able to achieve controllable nuclear fusion.

Deciding to act,

he continued experimenting with nuclear fusion using the Reconstruction of All Things ability and adjusted various parameters like temperature and humidity on a microscopic level.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, forming his hands into a circle, with palms facing inward,

looking as if he was conducting normal practices.

Meanwhile, explosions continuously occurred in his palm, each explosion having subtle changes in color, temperature, and volume. The scene looked very surreal, and as the experiment progressed, Wang Ye vaguely felt the atoms’ emotions: countless atoms colliding in his palm seemed to constantly express joy, sadness, anger, anxiety, and other emotions... Moreover, as their emotions changed, every nuclear fusion reaction seemed to have subtle variations, such as when they were happy, nuclear fusion became more stable. Speaking so abstractly is merely because he has a deeper understanding of atomic traits; most humans perceive the emotions of all things, like the sad drizzle, the angry storm, the gloomy overcast, which are external expressions using personification, rather than truly having emotions and consciousness.

Consciousness is something exclusive to creatures, strictly speaking, unique to humans. Even most lower animals cannot be said to have true emotions, merely instinctively moving towards beneficial things and avoiding harm.

About two hours later,

the time had already reached eight.

It was close to the start of the training session,

but Wang Ye still didn’t have clear ideas.

He sighed lightly, stood up, and walked down the mountain with his bag.

However, what he didn’t notice was that most of the trees, rocks, and scenic features behind him had already turned into charcoal or black stone.

Especially the trees, under continuous high-temperature baking, had lost their structural integrity.

And collapsed with a crash.
