Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Lin Shen pondered how to articulate his point of view to the two individuals and remained silent for quite a while before he finally spoke, "At the Nirvana Level, one can unleash strength with attributes, that is, the Power of Nirvana. Do you know what the essence of the Power of Nirvana is?"

"Nirvana Attributes are derived from the body absorbing the Nirvana Egg, or the strength from the Base Mutation area, transforming one's own strength particles and making them carry the attributes of the Power of Nirvana," Tian Qingyu looked at Lin Shen and continued, "This is the most common understanding. Does Brother Tian's understanding differ?"

"There's no difference. It's just a matter of how it's articulated. The strength particles of one's body are accompanied by Nirvana Attribute Particles, meaning the strength particles have acquired Nirvana Attributes. In reality, this is a fusion of two kinds of particles. The more times one undergoes Nirvana, the higher the degree of fusion of the two particles. If the fusion is truly complete, with the strength particles wholly merged with the Nirvana Attribute Particles, then one might be assimilated by the other."

"If the strength particles are completely assimilated by the Nirvana Attribute Particles, then the individual's body will be wholly Nirvanized, becoming a Base Variant Creature with no flesh and blood. Conversely, if the Nirvana Attribute Particles are entirely assimilated by the individual's own strength particles, then they lose their Nirvana Attributes, no longer possessing the ability to control the attribute particles, making their training as good as null."

"The best outcome, naturally, is to find a balance point where the two can merge perfectly without affecting each other's characteristics."

Tian Qingyu nodded upon hearing this, "Your explanation is clear and easy to understand. Each time Nirvana Beings undergo Nirvana, they ultimately pursue the perfect fusion of the two. However, achieving this is very difficult. The more times Nirvana is attempted, the stronger the Nirvana Attribute Particles become. As the degree of fusion deepens, the likelihood of the individual's own strength particles being assimilated increases. This is why, after numerous Nirvana attempts, Nirvana Beings tend to mutate towards Nirvana Creatures and eventually become non-human."

"Exactly. Therefore, before achieving a perfect fusion, strength particles and attribute particles are not completely unified. When the number of Nirvana attempts is low, the attribute particles and strength particles are merely in a mutually attractive relationship, not fused together." Lin Shen pointed at some text in the video and said, "This Separation Method is actually about separating the attribute particles from the strength particles."

Tian Qingyu and Tian Buluo both seemed stunned upon hearing this.

"How is that possible? To separate attribute particles from strength particles, who could achieve such a thing?" Tian Buluo was somewhat incredulous that such a thing could happen.

Attribute particles and strength particles are extremely small, so small that normally they cannot be seen by the naked eye. Only when the particles cluster together to form a larger matter are they visible to humans.

It would be like someone telling you they can manually separate the nucleus from the electrons in an atom—who could believe that?

"It's not impossible," Lin Shen had previously realized the mystery behind True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light, which could slice open atomic nuclei, so separating two mutually attracted particles would be even easier.

Of course, one must master True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light to perform such an operation. Lin Shen had not reached the Nirvana Level, nor had he practiced True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light, so he definitely couldn't do it.

But separating attribute particles from strength particles isn't as difficult as manually disassembling the nucleus and electrons of an atom.

According to the theory of the Separation Method, one needs to activate their own strength particles to a certain extent and then use their own active strength particles to capture the opponent's attribute particles, thus achieving the effect of separating the opponent's strength particles from their attribute particles.

In cases where power particles and attribute particles had not completely fused, the effect of the Separation Method was still very evident.

"This is just theoretical, right? I don't believe anyone at the Ascension Level really has the ability to perform this operation, not even a Nirvana Being, I'd think. Unless they have the corresponding talent abilities," Tian Buluo pondered as he spoke, "Based on this theory, I remember the Phoenix Clan has a mutant Nirvana attribute called Phoenix Yin Yang Divine Light, which can erase others' Nirvana Attributes. It might be based on a similar principle. But even within the Pure Blood Phoenix Clan, those who can master the Phoenix Yin Yang Divine Light are rare, only appearing once every thousand years, and it's impossible to master without the Phoenix bloodline. Without the corresponding Base Change Talent and supporting Evolution Skills, it's really hard to imagine how to complete the Separation Method with mere personal skill."

"It is indeed difficult, but if it can be achieved, it could indeed counter my Finger Sand," Lin Shen nodded and said, "Both Finger Sand and Twenty-Eight Fists are, in essence, the same as the Power of Nirvana. They both utilize one's own strength particles combined with another type of particle in the space to exert force remotely. However, this combination is only temporary, unlike the permanent fusion of the Power of Nirvana. Therefore, Finger Sand and Twenty-Eight Fists are more easily separated by the Separation Method. Once separated, their remote force immediately becomes ineffective, which means that the Separation Method is the natural nemesis of my Finger Sand."

"If that's the case, and the person who made this video really has mastered the Separation Method, and he's a competitor in the Ascension Level ranking battles challenging you, wouldn't that render your Finger Sand useless?" Tian Buluo realized the severity of the issue.

Yet Tian Qingyu looked at Lin Shen and laughed, "Brother Tian, you must have already thought of a countermeasure, haven't you?"

"I haven't come up with anything at the moment. If I do encounter it, I'll just have to not use Finger Sand," Lin Shen thought for a moment and then said, "However, I can try to research this Separation Method. It might prove to be very effective against Nirvana Beings in the future."

"It's difficult, extremely difficult. How would you train for that? The person who made the video only mentioned a concept, not even a theory, and what you just analyzed comes from his concept. Without the corresponding talent abilities, without an actual operating method or skill manual, you have no direction at all," Tian Qingyu shook his head.

"Anyway, I've got nothing else to do, so I might as well study it a little. Even if it doesn't work out, there's no loss. Do you want to join me?" Lin Shen was just interested in the Separation Method and was not fixated on mastering it.

Tian Buluo and Tian Qingyu hurriedly shook their heads. If they had the corresponding talent abilities and skills, they would be willing to give it a try.
Your next chapter awaits on empire

Starting with just a concept to create a Separation Method is much more difficult than creating a top-tier martial art.

Moreover, it is still unknown whether the concept of the Separation Method is even feasible or if it's just an outlandish idea without any practicality.

"Brother Tian, the theory about particle fusion that you just mentioned has greatly inspired me. I'll go back and do more research on Twenty-Eight Fists; perhaps I can make some gains," Tian Qingyu excused herself and left. Instead of wasting time on such vague concepts, she would rather go back to practicing Twenty-Eight Fists.

Tian Buluo and Lin Shen talked for a while longer about the ranking battles and soon departed as well.

Lin Shen continued to research the Separation Method by himself at home, suspecting that he had seen a similar ability to the Separation Method before.

The Black Cap Mushroom that could make Base Mutation strength disappear seemed much like a Separation Method-related skill.
