Chapter 43 This is a good thing!
"Hiss~"
"Why is it broken again?"
Bai Sheng frowned and withdrew his sword finger.
I reviewed the whole process from beginning to end.
The sword aura itself is not the problem.
After all, without the addition of purple energy, it condenses very steadily.
The purple aura itself is not a problem.
His perception allowed him to clearly detect that extremely subtle trace of purple energy within the sunlight.
You can also use your mind to draw it over.
The problem is that these two things are incompatible when they are put together.
It's not exactly a rejection, but the purple aura will directly disintegrate the condensed structure of the sword energy.
"Sigh, how difficult is it for a person to persevere?"
Bai Sheng looked at the sun shining directly on his face and sighed.
If it's really like in the novel, with sects and various fellow disciples...
This kind of problem can probably be solved with just one conversation.
but,
If you walk this path alone, it is destined to be difficult.
Without guidance or communication, I had to explore all by myself in solitude...
Bai Sheng quickly suppressed this thought.
I was even thinking of going down the mountain a moment ago,
In the end, they didn't go down the mountain.
Since we're already here,
Furthermore,
Isn't the path of spiritual practice all about experiencing hardships?
Having already gained an advantage, we certainly can't afford to waste it.
How many opportunities can one seize in a lifetime?
After Bai Sheng gave himself a pep talk,
Excitedly, it ran around on the mountainside, almost leaping across the rooftops.
"Calm down, calm down..."
"Should we change locations? Find one with better sunlight; maybe the quality of the purple energy absorbed there will be better."
After thinking about it, Bai Sheng rejected the idea.
The mountain offers good views and lighting conditions.
It's considered one of the best in the entire suburbs of Yangcheng.
Changing to another place might not be better than here.
He sat down cross-legged again on the rocky platform.
I went through the whole process of the two previous failures again.
The moment the purple energy entered the sword aura, the sword aura's structure collapsed.
The problem likely lies in the compatibility of the two energy sources!
"If we have to make an analogy, it's like how two chemical reactants can't react; there are naturally all sorts of reasons why."
It might be due to an incorrect method of importing.
Or perhaps the condensation structure of the sword energy itself needs adjustment.
Or perhaps the ratio of purple aura to true essence needs to be tested.
Bai Sheng decided to try a different approach.
Both times just now, I condensed the sword energy first and then drew in the purple energy.
This time it's the other way around.
First, draw purple energy into the body, then condense sword energy.
The result was even worse than before...
The purple aura had just entered the arm along the meridians, not yet reaching the fingertips.
The entire three Yin meridians of the hand began to swell.
The true essence was thrown about wildly through the meridians by the purple energy.
This prevents the sword energy from condensing at all!
boom!
A faint crackling sound came from my arm.
Bai Sheng quickly cut off the purple aura.
Use your true essence to envelop the remaining purple energy in your meridians and expel it from your body.
unfortunately,
This road is clearly blocked.
Bai Sheng pondered for a moment and then made a brief summary.
"Failure is not entirely without gains; at least we can learn some lessons."
"Now, I think I understand the composition and properties of the purple aura and sword energy!"
If you have a barrel of gasoline that is burning steadily, what will happen if you pour a little liquid oxygen into it?
The answer, of course, is instantaneous explosion!
Gasoline is a high-energy fuel, and liquid oxygen is a strong oxidizing agent.
The moment the two come into contact, the reaction rate goes out of control.
The heat release increased dramatically, and the entire combustion system went out of control!
This is basically similar to the situation just now.
Bai Sheng's sword energy is inherently a stable structure.
Purple aura is roughly equivalent to a high-energy oxidant.
Forcing it in is like setting off a bomb in a confined space...
This is why it's worse to first draw in the purple energy and then condense the sword energy.
It's equivalent to filling the cylinder with pure oxygen first and then injecting fuel.
Before ignition even begins, the residual heat from the compression stroke alone is enough to ignite the oil-air mixture.
Bai Sheng had no choice but to readjust.
Try his second approach.
This time, he decided to first adjust the condensation structure of the sword energy.
"rise!"
Bai Sheng shouted and raised his right hand high.
He condensed the sword energy once more.
This time, the structure of the sword energy was intentionally made looser, and the density was reduced to a lower level.
Then, with extremely slow and light force,
A wisp of purple mist, thinner than a strand of hair, was drawn inside.
Purple energy seeped into the sword's aura.
The golden light flashed twice, but it didn't explode!
Bai Sheng's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed, feeling that this time it should be a success.
The sword aura lasted for about two seconds.
A sudden, unstable tremor occurred, followed by...
In the end, it disintegrated little by little.
Bai Sheng harbored the idea of doing the opposite.
I tried again.
Although I didn't have much hope at first,
But the result...
There's really not much hope.
By compressing the sword energy structure even more tightly, the purple energy naturally couldn't penetrate at all.
Slide it directly along the surface of the sword energy; it's a waste of effort.
Bai Sheng pondered it carefully and discovered its subtleties.
The relationship between this sword aura and the purple energy is quite similar to that between gasoline and an oxidizer.
Reduce the density of the sword energy to a minimum.
This is equivalent to reducing the concentration of gasoline vapor to below the lower explosive limit, so it naturally cannot be ignited.
The density is compressed too tightly.
It's equivalent to squeezing the fuel molecules into a solid mass.
The oxidizing agent molecules simply cannot penetrate; they can only remain on the surface.
This is the limit of diffusion control!
Only when the density falls within a certain range
Only when reactants and oxidants diffuse and combine at an extremely slow rate at the contact surface can they avoid collapsing.
Bai Sheng couldn't help but recall his high school chemistry class.
In chemical terms, this is probably called a diffusion-controlled reaction.
The reaction rate is not determined by the reactivity of the reactants themselves.
Rather, it is determined by the rate at which they diffuse into the reaction interface!
I failed twice, but I managed to find the general range of that interval.
"This is a good thing."
Bai Sheng tried several more times and found that even after finding a relatively suitable range,
But failure was still inevitable!
Clearly, there is more than one influencing factor.
"Next, we need to consider the issue of proportions."
Bai Sheng rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.
If it's a matter of proportion, then it's truly the most troublesome issue!
This will require a long period of experimentation.
And there is another possibility,
Different proportions result in different condensation structures and densities of sword aura purple energy.
The effects are also different.
This immediately connects to the second question.
With these two factors influencing each other, finding a definitive answer becomes even more complicated!
Bai Sheng thought about it and decided to continue.
This time, the sword energy was condensed to 70% of its usual density.
This time, we will not attempt to introduce the purple energy into the sword aura.
Based on the optimal structure found through previous experiments
The purple aura was directly applied to the surface of the sword energy.
It forms a very thin purple film.
After one test, the edges where the purple membrane and the sword aura touched began to erode each other.
Tiny golden-purple sparks kept emerging from the erosion points.
It lasted for almost ten seconds, then gradually subsided.
After the sparks subsided, the purple membrane and the sword aura stabilized.
Although the edges of the purple film are still being eroded at an extremely slow rate, the overall structure has stabilized!
"Could it be?"
