139: Chapter 139 Superstring Resonators

"Matriarch, the Photon Matrix Cannon doesn't seem to have much effect on that creature. Should we use a more effective strike?"

The Dinosaur People within the Dinosaur Civilization, who were constantly monitoring Lin Sheng's movements, felt a trace of inexplicable fear rise in their hearts after seeing Lin Sheng's performance under the bombardment.

They had never encountered a terrifying creature like Lin Sheng; even a beam capable of piercing through a planet had no effect when it hit him.

"Hmm."

"Use the 'Superstring Resonator'."

By this time, the Matriarch had realized that with the Dinosaur Civilization's current technological strength, they were unable to capture Lin Sheng.

But being unable to capture him didn't mean they couldn't destroy him.

The "Superstring Resonator" was the Dinosaur Civilization's strongest weapon. To date, the Dinosaur Civilization had no other means of attack that could rival it.

Based on Superstring Theory, the Dinosaur Civilization used it to generate vibrations at specific frequencies, directly affecting the elementary particles that make up matter, thereby causing the target's structure to collapse.

Once the Dinosaur Civilization used the "Superstring Resonator" to strike the area where Lin Sheng was located, not only Lin Sheng, but all physical matter in that region would collapse.

"Matriarch, the 'Superstring Resonator' has locked onto that creature. The estimated strike radius is half a light-year. Should we notify our clansmen there to evacuate?"

"Strike directly. Don't waste any more time."

"It is their honor to sacrifice themselves for the civilization."

...

Because the Dinosaur Civilization had remotely locked onto Lin Sheng, he was currently unable to teleport and could only wander through this region at sub-light speeds.

But before Lin Sheng could wander for long, his heart suddenly gave a violent throb.

[Danger! Extreme danger!]

Omniscience suddenly issued a warning in Lin Sheng's heart. Feeling that intense sense of unease, Lin Sheng didn't even think before directly commanding the Light Lord behind him:

"I'm ready, it's your tur—"

Before Lin Sheng could finish his sentence, a wave of intense numbness enveloped his entire body.

At the same time, a flash of colorful light flickered across Lin Sheng's forehead, but he didn't notice it at all at this moment.

Because right then, Lin Sheng had focused his attention entirely on his body, which had already become a mass of elementary particles.

It wasn't just Lin Sheng; at this moment, with Lin Sheng at the center, all matter within a diameter of one light-year collapsed into elementary particles invisible to the naked eye.

"Am I dead?"

Lin Sheng's consciousness floated quietly in the universe. Just as he was still in a daze, the surrounding time seemed to reverse, and the matter that had been shattered into elementary particles began to re-aggregate.

This re-aggregated matter included Lin Sheng's body.

"I'm alive again?"

Lin Sheng clenched his fist.

After the matter was re-aggregated, the surrounding time seemed to stand still, terrifyingly quiet.

"Was that colorful light just now a 'Truth Creation'?"

Before Lin Sheng could react from the confusion of his death and resurrection, a voice filled with intense longing rang in his ear.

"Wait, that's not right. If it really were a Truth Creation, why would it be affected by the dimension of time?"

Suddenly, the Light Lord's voice became somewhat puzzled.

Lin Sheng turned his head to look at the Light Lord floating beside him. Even though the Light Lord was just a light orb, Lin Sheng could still feel the sense of confusion emanating from it.

By this time, he had also realized what had happened.

The reason he could be resurrected was likely because the Light Lord had reversed time in this area.

In response, Lin Sheng really wanted to offer an explanation to his savior.

However, as for why the oracle would be affected by time reversal, Lin Sheng himself wasn't sure, and he had never paid attention to such matters.

After Lin Sheng had parasitized the oracle, he had subconsciously treated it as a part of his own body.

Precisely because of this, when Lin Sheng's body had been blown apart by the Origin Walker previously, he hadn't thought about why the oracle was also "shattered."

Now, prompted by the Light Lord, Lin Sheng realized the issue.

"System?"

[Ding]

[After being parasitized by the Host, the oracle's physical strength is affected by the Host's physical body, but its essence remains in a state of 'Absolute Existence'.]

[Whether the Host's physical body is destroyed or not does not affect this state of the oracle.]

Lin Sheng gave a simple summary of the system's explanation to the Light Lord.

After hearing Lin Sheng's explanation, the Light Lord's color remained in a deep crimson state. Looking at this mass of crimson light, Lin Sheng involuntarily developed a layer of goosebumps on his back.

"This thing is called the 'oracle.' You don't need to know its functions; anyway, I won't let you use it, but I can let you see it."

A cube emitting colorful light appeared before the Light Lord. Several tubes were attached to the cube, with the other ends connected to Lin Sheng's forehead.

"This... this is Truth?!"

Seeing the thing it had pursued for countless years appearing so tangibly before it, even the Light Lord, as the leader of a civilization, began to stutter at this moment.

"Truth!"

"Everything is Truth; it contains all Truth!"

"No... it makes everything become Truth!"

As it watched, the Light Lord seemed to become possessed, repeatedly murmuring these few phrases.

Furthermore, it unconsciously floated toward Lin Sheng's forehead—the location of the oracle.

Noticing this unconscious behavior of the Light Lord, Lin Sheng frowned.

He hadn't expected the oracle's lethality to be so strong when left unrestrained, such that even an existence like the Light Lord, who had stepped onto the path of Truth, would be affected by it.

Seeing the Light Lord getting closer and closer to the oracle, Lin Sheng directly blocked the Light Lord with his mouth and took back the oracle in passing.

Sensing the approaching danger, the Light Lord immediately snapped out of its unconscious state.

A sense of lingering fear suddenly spread through its entire body.

Without the influence of the oracle, the Light Lord realized just how dangerous its situation had been moments ago.

Once it made contact with the oracle, there was a high probability it would have been lost within it.

At that point, it didn't dare imagine what it would have become.

Would it be assimilated by "Truth" and become a part of it? Or would it be obliterated by "Truth" and completely vanish from this world?

The Light Lord didn't dare to think about it. If Lin Sheng were to release the oracle again, the Light Lord could guarantee that it would absolutely never pay attention to that thing again.

Even if that thing was incredibly mesmerizing, it would never take even a single glance.
