Chapter 3265 Rejuvenation

Regarding how the parallel universe was born, scientists of course have thrown out many hypotheses and conjectures, among which the most widely spread is the "observer hypothesis", which believes that the observer's observation behavior leads to the collapse of the quantum state, which in turn triggers the The birth of a parallel universe.

The simplest example is to go back to the thought experiment of "Schrödinger's cat" just now. According to the "observer hypothesis", before the box is opened, the current universe is in the quantum state of the superposition of two probabilities. Once the box is opened, "the observer "Seeing the results in the box, in an instant, the universe split into two. The two universes are almost identical, except that in one universe, the cat is alive, while in the other universe, the cat is dead. .

This kind of theory that "the life and death of a cat can create a new universe" is really difficult to accept, but if it is replaced by a more important historical choice, it seems to be easier to understand. At the fork in the road, if the first ape did not look up at the starry sky, if the tribe that first learned to use flames to grill food was destroyed by a flash flood, if Qin Shihuang died in the assassination of assassins in the process of unifying the six kingdoms, if Newton The famous apple died of a terrible and widespread infectious disease before it fell. If Nazi Germany developed nuclear weapons first instead of the United States...'If, suppose, if', the current human civilization in the universe is just on the way However, there are countless other forked roads, which can still lead to countless colorful and completely different universes.

Even, to put it a bit more extreme, some "theoretical explorers" of parallel universes believe that any choice that everyone makes every day, every minute, every second will cause a storm of quantum progression, leading to the "split" of the entire universe. ", a new parallel universe was born.

In other words, even if an ordinary person steps his left foot first or his right foot first when he goes out in the morning, it may trigger a series of chain reactions and lead to the birth of a new parallel universe.

Such an argument, which is close to idealism, places human beings at the center of the infinite universe, so it is naturally difficult for people to accept it from common sense.

However, looking at the problem from another angle, "the universe exists because of me" seems to be an irrefutable truth.

The reason is very simple, when people mention the concept of "universe", they often think of the vast space, the shining stars, the brilliant sun and the soft moon, and perhaps various magnetic fields, ripples and strong and weak effects force, and black holes and neutron stars and nebulae and all cosmic dust.

However, the reason why people think that the universe is a "bright sea of ​​stars" is precisely because human beings have "two eyes", can observe light, receive radiation, and are proficient in various calculations, and can use the most basic mathematical formulas, An "observer" who deduces the orbit of a planet thousands of miles away.

If there are no human beings, but another kind of intelligent life without photoreceptors, or even completely unable to detect light waves and thermal radiation as observers, their universe will definitely not be a "bright sea of ​​stars", but another kind of life that humans can't even perceive light waves and heat radiation at all. Understand, perhaps something more chaotic and more gorgeous.

If you think about it further, will the universe be billions of times richer, brighter, more splendid, and more exciting than what humans observe? There are also various ripples, force fields, and various celestial bodies, but humans lack observations and calculations. Their "organs", so they have been immersed in the sea of ​​colorful abundance, but they are ignorant?

It's like living in the deepest part of the underground cave all your life, and the primitive tribes who have never seen the light must not know and don't need to know the meaning of color. To them, the world is completely another form.

Finally, what if there were no humans?

There are neither humans nor any intelligent beings acting as "observers". Does the universe still exist? Even if it exists, what is the point of a universe that has never been observed and may be in a quantum superposition state forever?

Therefore, in a "meaningful universe", the "observer" must be the center of the universe. The universe is what the observer's eyes and other perception organs look like; what the observer wants it to be, it is It is possible to become what it is; the observer is full of hope, and the universe is infinitely bright; the observer is in despair, and the universe is eternally sinking.

... Information like this flooded into Li Yao's soul like a flood and a vast ocean.

"what to do?"

Li Yao's face sank like water, as if facing a formidable enemy, "I don't really understand what Hong Chao is saying, he looks a little embarrassed, what should I do?"

As soon as this idea emerged in the depths of his mind, he felt that the information flooding into his mind became clear and concise.

Specific theories and complicated conjectures, hypotheses, theorems, and formulas are not important, anyway, Li Yao can't understand it anyway. In short, Li Yao only needs to understand that the "Observer Hypothesis" is partially established under certain conditions. Parallel The universe really exists, and its birth method is also related to "whether Schrödinger's cat is alive or dead".

This does not mean, of course, that if such a cat existed, its life and death would really create a whole new parallel universe.

Not to mention, if an ordinary person goes to work with sleepy eyes and yawning in the morning, whichever foot to step out first will create a whole new parallel universe.

No, it's not that simple. The key lies in the conservation of mass-energy and heat. Creating a new parallel universe requires a lot of energy, and simple, low-level observation behaviors such as "the life and death of a cat" and "step left foot and right foot first" It is not enough to stimulate enough powerful energy to "promote" the birth of a new parallel universe.

Only when a sufficient number of observers stimulate the most powerful energy contained in their bodies and perform some kind of high-level observation behavior, will there be a certain chance of leading to the birth of a new parallel universe.

In this series of universes where Hong Chao is located, the observers are all human beings.

The highest level of energy contained in the human body, even the ultimate power that has a certain probability of breaking through the "law of conservation of mass and energy" and even breaking through the barriers of dimensions and the universe, is emotion, will and imagination.

The parallel universe may be endless, but the emotion, will and imagination of all observers in the infinite universe are common.

Therefore, it is possible to create a new parallel universe by placing these observers in a very extreme environment to stimulate their strongest emotions and most vigorous imagination!

What is a "very extreme environment"?

The answer is ready to come out, that is when "the end of the world, natural disasters come, and the earth is destroyed"!

I see!

Li Yao finally understood what Hong Chao was doing.

It first uses its own control of most of the multiverse sea, which can be called "quasi-god-level" power, to manipulate matter and energy, create countless earths, and trap hundreds of millions of heroic spirits in them.

Immediately afterwards, let these earths be destroyed one by one, using the strong stimulation of the end of the world to stimulate the most powerful emotion, will and imagination hidden in each heroic spirit.

As long as these forces are strong enough, it is possible to trigger the "observer effect", causing the current universe to split and a new "parallel universe" to be born.

However, creating brand new parallel universes is still not Hong Chao's ultimate goal. On the contrary, when these brand new parallel universes are created and are about to explode and expand, Hong Chao uses a method that Li Yao cannot understand The parallel universes are all imprisoned and sealed!

The splitting of atoms produces powerful energy, and the splitting of the universe is even more so.

Gathering and sealing the power of atom splitting, and outputting it stably and continuously is the working principle of some nuclear power plants, but Hong Chao deliberately triggered the "fission chain reaction" of the cosmic series, turning countless newly born parallel universes into Its "energy source"!

Hong Chao really did not lie.

What it really wants to use is not the "energy" of human emotion, will and imagination. Although powerful, it is still insignificant compared with the "cosmic fission chain reaction energy".

The power of the human observer is just the fulcrum for it to leverage the "universe splitting energy" or "quantum energy".

The flood that controls the infinite quantum energy is indeed not Li Yao, Ding Lingdang, or the remnants of Yuanshi civilization. The unyielding resisters in the multiverse sea can contend if it puts 100% of its quantum energy on the battlefield.

However, Li Yao discovered that Hong Chao did not intend to use quantum energy to destroy them at all. Instead, he invested most of the quantum energy, the power of splitting and exploding countless parallel universes, into a mysterious place, a certain place. Inside something even weirder and more inexplicable than a black hole.

In the words of the cultivation world, it seems to be some kind of cosmic level, no, it is a "multiverse level" magic weapon, it is the core of the magic weapon!

"What the hell are you doing?"

Seeing the ultimate picture of the universe clearly, Li Yao felt his hair stand on end, and murmured, "You created countless parallel universes, and sealed them all at the moment of birth, and obtained countless 'energy' through this method. Sources, countless 'cosmic batteries', countless 'world engines', you, you control such a huge amount of energy, what exactly do you want to use them to drive and achieve?"

"I'm already old."

Hong Chao made an ancient and vicissitudes voice behind Li Yao, "As you said, time has left too many scars and pains on me. Even a real god-level civilization cannot resist the erosion of time. If you regard me as a A person, that is also an old man with gray hair and dying years.

"For an old man who is dying and dying, it doesn't matter if he has all the wealth and power in the world, does it? If, if there is a chance, he can exchange all the wealth and power for a wish , What kind of wish do you think he will make?

"That's right, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand old people will not have a second answer. What I want is nothing more than eight words to turn back time and rejuvenate!"——
