Chapter 904: Yin-Yang Interaction, Quantum Creation! (Two-in-One)

Quantum entanglement!

At this moment, everyone on the great plains heard this term, and their expressions subtly changed.

The smallest particulate unit into which matter can be divided is called a quantum. However, quanta possess incredibly strange properties: after special pairing, they become entangled in a mysterious way, sensing each other's movement regardless of distance. This is quantum entanglement. In the simplest terms, they are like two special magnets separated by vast distances; when one moves, the other moves with it.

At this moment, the white-robed scholar gave an affirmative answer, "Yes, in your terms, quantum entanglement is indeed the core essence of our civilization's martial arts. Most of our martial arts foundation is built upon this, using it to establish another true self!"

Establishing another true self? The Thirteenth Prince felt somewhat dizzy: "That's right! Quanta are the smallest units of matter; the flesh, bones, and composition of life are also quanta. By performing extensive quantum entanglement on their own body particles, they've created a controllable quantum doppelgänger, essentially creating a parallel-universe version of themselves. And according to quantum mechanics, the speed at which information is transmitted via quantum entanglement surpasses any cosmic speed; it's instantaneous. Furthermore, quantum entanglement also provides the most formidable means of secrecy in the world, being almost impossible to decipher."

The white-robed scholar smiled, "Do you have any more questions? I will answer truthfully. I am very hospitable; if you encountered others, it might not be like this for you."

Everyone's expression was strange; they didn't know whether it was true or false. No one could fathom the thoughts of such great existences, whose very being involved the laws of the universe.

"'Xiaoyao You' uses quantum entanglement... Is your current body a quantum battle-body?" the Thirteenth Prince asked. "Is your true self in another spacetime?"

"How can you speak of a doppelgänger and a true self? These are all me. In your words, they are two 'me's in a 'quantum entanglement state,' both genuinely existing. In fact, this doppelgänger of mine is even stronger than the true self! ...Oh, why am I also calling it a doppelgänger? They are clearly both me." The white-robed scholar pressed his temples in annoyance, "In an observed quantum state, it's truly easy to be influenced."

The white-robed scholar continued with a smile, "Never mind, I won't dwell on it. What you call the doppelgänger realm, we achieved when we were gods. But our understanding differs. We call the entire unseen universe 'Chaos,' and Chaos divides into Yin and Yang... Our divine realm involves separating Yin and Yang, resulting in two bodies, a Yin body and a Yang body, which we call 'Yin-Yang Resonance,' sensing another true self within Chaos."

Their martial arts realm, Yin-Yang Resonance? Does this system mean only Eighth-level gods can perform quantum entanglement? They couldn't help but find it increasingly bizarre.

"What about your Ninth-level?" Mansha asked.

"The Ninth-level, of course, is the union of Yin and Yang, attaining the Way of Chaos." The white-robed scholar smiled, his expression incredibly serene and refined. "Oh, it's what you would call two quantum-entangled bodies merging to form an exceedingly beautiful cosmic chaotic form. Of course, it's still humanoid... This is what we call – attaining the Primal True Martial Sacred Body."

"That is, of course, the ultimate form. We generally keep Yin and Yang separate. Our true selves are hidden somewhere in the void. Typically, it's the quantum battle-body that goes out and acts. Each person's quantum battle-body is different. My quantum battle-body is not specialized in combat. I am 'Xiaoyao You'; my quantum battle-body is mostly dispersed as infinite quantum particles throughout the multiverse. I am known in the multiverse as the omnipresent, omniscient ultimate deity – 'You,' traversing the entire vast multi-dimensional universe..."

After hearing the answer, Xia Er couldn't help but ask, "So, you discovered us... Are you currently a portion of your true self's quanta?"

"Yes, when I spoke, you began to perceive me... When you started observing me, the particles in this vicinity would form me, and I would exist here... Of course, the particle density here can only form a phantom image of me, perhaps about one hundred-millionth of my quantum battle-body's density."

The Thirteenth Prince fell into contemplation. A single person has trillions of cells; if these were further divided into the most minute quanta, the number would be incalculably vast, indeed enough to permeate countless life-bearing planets and monitor everything. This is an utterly terrifying super-system! The quantum laws they cultivate are among the highest laws of the universe! Through quantum entanglement, they manifest another quantum battle-body doppelgänger... while their true body can hide, making it almost impossible to kill them! Killing an enlightened being of this system is incredibly difficult! Without killing their true body, they would at most suffer a great loss of power, and then they would use the matter from their true body to entangle a new quantum battle-body. Moreover, their quantum battle-body possesses all the characteristics of quanta, making it more versatile and powerful than the true body—for instance, completely transforming into quantum particles, dispersing throughout the entire cosmos, which filled him with dread!

"'Xiaoyao You' truly roams freely between heaven and earth, drifting within the celestial realms..." the Thirteenth Prince said with a wry smile.

"Not everyone's martial art is the same. For example, there's someone called Zhou Meng by the myriad worlds... The martial art he cultivates is one of the ultimate cosmic martial arts: 'A Dream of the Cosmos.'"

"'A Dream of the Cosmos'?"

"Yes, 'A Dream of the Cosmos' is different from mine. According to your understanding, he splits his quantum battle-body and attaches it to countless living beings. As you know, quanta are the smallest units that make up the universe, and naturally also the smallest units of life. He could be a particle of skin you just shed, or a strand of hair you just metabolized, or even the fecal matter in your intestines, or a speck of dirt beneath your feet. He is in reincarnation."

Reincarnation!? A Dream of the Cosmos? Everyone got goosebumps upon hearing this, feeling as though some high-dimensional being was omnipresent, in the fragrance of flowers and grass, in the morning dew. The existence of enlightened beings in this universe is too terrifying! Their atypical martial arts, when cultivated to mastery... the other entangled part of their body is already a quantum life-form!

"He might be everything, yet not everything... It sounds miraculous, but it is indeed the truth," the white-robed scholar commented.

"There are also beings known as the Multiverse's First Martial Arts Grandmaster, the Leader of the Martial Alliance! To explain in your terms, he has a very simple, pure quantum battle-body. He doesn't perform quantum division and recomposition; he is a true quantum doppelgänger, extremely fierce in combat, with the strongest direct combat ability! But you should know that in this world, being fierce in a fight doesn't guarantee victory... If you can't hit your opponent, it's useless." He smiled, his gaze distant, like a traveler encountered on a wild cliffside path, telling unbelievable stories to a group of children.

"Of course, that's not all. Where there is righteousness, there is evil. There's also an even more extreme demon lord who cultivates the ultimate martial art of the multiverse – the 'Delusional Demonic Division Art.' He is terrifying. In your words, his quantum battle-body is closer to being conceptualized. As long as his name is called in the ethereal realm, or he is observed, or his existence is sensed... quantum assimilation will occur, and you will gradually become him—in appearance, personality, and combat power. Many natives on various planets in the universe perform such ancient, evil summoning rituals to gain immense power... but they ultimately sacrifice themselves to that demon lord."

"He truly is the Multiverse's foremost demon lord of the martial world; knights, righteous heroes, and the leaders of major sects all seek to destroy him!"

Everyone got goosebumps again upon hearing this. Just by observing him, perceiving him, one becomes a part of him? This was too profound and eerie. At the same time, was this truly an ancient martial world? With the universe as its martial world. Planets as cliffs, upon which swordsmanship is discussed, swords piercing the firmament. Star seas as rivers, traversed by flight, martial arts shattering the cosmos. What grand ambition was this? What exhilarating pleasure? Martial world chivalry was nothing more than this! However, with the universe as the martial world, and free vengeance, there also came a great terror.

"Of course, precisely because his name is taboo, I cannot tell you what my name is, nor can I tell you the names of the powerful beings I just described... You can still call me Mr. Cat, Schrödinger's Cat." He smiled.

Everyone simply felt goosebumps rise, and a terrifying thought quickly emerged.

"Your name also can't be spoken... Is it because all four of you share the same name? Are you all alternate selves from parallel universes?" Mansha was covered in goosebumps.

"Yes, that's roughly correct. Originally, we had over thirty parallel-universe selves, all of whom were consumed by the four of us," he said. "The four of us who remain are already grandmasters of our respective universes... When we continue to defeat other selves from parallel universes and truly achieve union, we will escape the sea of suffering in the multiverse, becoming the sole Über-self, the one true God of the multiverse."

Cold sweat broke out on the Thirteenth Prince. He recalled his previous parallel-universe self; it was simply a small fry in comparison. And the person before him was precisely the cosmic Ninth-level enlightened being whom the Demon God Lord had mentioned earlier as being on the verge of a breakthrough.

"Of course, the four of us are the strongest, but there are other powerful beings approaching our level, existing on this path of enlightenment..." He was very talkative and continued, "For instance, in our multiverse, there's a stunted, small universe called the 'First Central Universe'; it is extremely cramped. You might not believe it, but almost all matter in that universe—flowers, trees, insects, fish—is composed of infinite quantum battle-bodies. The laws of over 1,731 cosmic enlightened beings converge there, where they exchange information and trade intelligence. The most I've seen is a single blade of wild grass, whose body is composed of the matter of countless 327 enlightened beings. And that place is just a small village, inhabited by only a few hundred people, including elders and children, living an isolated, idyllic life. The very matter making up their skin, eyes, pupils, and even their feces are particles from us grandmasters, yet the natives themselves are completely unaware."

"Aren't the people in that village very happy?" Mansha trembled, her perspective sharp: "Even cosmic enlightened beings are their feces, the chairs beneath their bottoms, or even directly form their bottoms, the sand beneath their feet..."

"But how can you tolerate those foolish mortals living by stepping all over you?" Princess Xia Er said.

"Hee hee hee hee..." The white-robed scholar burst into hearty laughter, laughing with great satisfaction. "When you stand at this height and live long enough, you won't think that way anymore. Who is stepping on whose head? For us, it's no longer important. They are like small animals in a mural... just scenery we can observe while we—as these particles of dirt, grains, and plants—conduct our transactions and exchanges."

Everyone felt a creeping horror upon deeper thought, instinctively looking around. The countless substances around them, including the particulate matter composing their own lives, were inconceivable high-dimensional spacetime existences, converged into form, yet they had been utterly unaware. If the entire universe were like this... They broke out in goosebumps! Is our entire universe—sand, flora, insects, fish—also... a material world formed by the convergence of countless powerful, mysterious existences? This was utterly chilling! Or perhaps, it's all composed of a single existence? If so, who is this existence?

"Yes, I presume you've already guessed some things." The white-robed scholar looked up at the sky, filled with longing. "Ah, life is so magnificent and brilliant. The world is diverse. Even as some of the most prominent beings in the multiverse, we are filled with anticipation for the future. We create that kind of environment, communicate in that village, and let matter pervade the world... It's to deduce a scenario: what if our world were also a world formed by some kind of creature? Would there also be a life form observing us, just as we observe the people in that small village? Or even composing us?"

"Hee hee hee hee... Perhaps our quantum cultivation system will truly point directly to the ultimate conceptual existence of the quantum universe—Chaos."

"Chaos?" They almost lost their voices. Hearing such an existence preach was already an indescribably immense opportunity, let alone receiving such terrifying information and insights into the system.

"Yes, it is Chaos, but not the Chaos I spoke of earlier. This Chaos... is everything."

"Is everything?"

"It is everything of everything. You should know that quanta are the most fundamental units that make up matter. Perhaps there is a body, existing imperceptibly, whose matter forms that pitiful village—the flowers, trees, feces, even our own hair... Are we also such a pitiful village?" The white-robed scholar smiled, speaking with deep longing: "If there truly is a conceptual life form of Chaos that composes the entire material universe, it's not impossible... Remember, the Big Bang was a point of infinite density exploding into an endless cosmic world... That point was the original life, and the universe after the explosion can be compared to that entire village."

Could it be...? Everyone got goosebumps all over.

"The Dao!""The One!""The Primordial!""The All!"

That imperceptible conceptual existence... They had previously heard the Divine-Demonic Alchemist's shop mention such secret cosmic mysteries, and the Demon God Lord had also brought it up. Could such an existence truly be real!? As expected, this white-robed scholar eventually revealed their quantum civilization's deduction about the multiverse: "Then, such a quantum conceptual existence could explain the legendary..."

"Creator God."
