Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 201 The Dimensional Reduction of the Magic Hoop
……

The sunlight was warm and gentle, and a light breeze carried a fragrance.

On the top of a hill in Lishan, there is a large expanse of lush green lawn, dotted with a blue lakeside, making it an excellent place for playing golf.

Tang Xuanci came alone, found the monkey playing ball, snatched the cue stick and played with it for a while, then waved away the fairy who was lighting cigarettes and pouring tea, and the fairy boy who was responsible for setting up the ball and doing odd jobs.

"How did it go?" He walked under the luxurious yellow parasol, chewed a betel nut, and lit a cigarette. "Did you finish the equation I asked you to calculate the day before yesterday?"

The monkey jumped onto the recliner, grabbed a few pieces of paper from the coffee table, and threw them at him.

The table was covered with a dense array of numbers and symbols, including singular integral equations, Taylor series of multivariable functions, and of course, the Schrödinger wave equation, which is essential for the study of metaphysics.

Tang Xuanci knew this was used to describe the changes in the headband and divine consciousness, but he was completely baffled by it and couldn't help but mutter to himself to the beaker:
"The main value is 6... Is this even a college student can understand? What level is this monkey at now? He's become a mathematician, a genius!"

The beaker analyzed the contents of the paper and replied:
"It's not '主' = 6, it should be '= b', it's written a bit hastily."

"The monkey's current mathematical level is still a long way from that of the real mathematicians on its home planet."

"Its memory and calculation abilities far exceed those of ordinary people, so it learns very quickly, but it has limitations in mathematical thinking and makes many mistakes."

"For example, this equation..."

Tang Xuanci was puzzled, but after glancing at the monkey, he said calmly:
"Wukong, how many times have I told you to write your characters neatly? Look at this =b, at first glance it looks like the main character = 6."

"Also, although you learn quickly, you have serious errors in your mathematical thinking."

"For example, this part is clearly wrong..."

The monkey frowned, holding a glass of lemonade, and leaned closer to look. Its eyes held a mixture of realization, contemplation, and utter annoyance. It thought to itself:
"Aa ...
"Back when I, Old Sun, was learning Taoism, I ascended to immortality in just three years, without encountering the slightest obstacle whatsoever."

"But this math is too hard! I can't learn it at all. I can't figure out this broken hoop!"

Tang Xuanci couldn't help but find it amusing to see it scratching its head in such a hurry, just like a student struggling to answer an easy question on an exam.

At this moment, the beaker said:
"It's now confirmed that the constricting band inside the monkey's body is one-dimensional relative to our three-dimensional space. It's much easier to break free of it."

"But the essence within your body, in its current state without being unfolded, is ten-dimensional."

"It takes nine dimensional reduction expansions to reduce it to one dimension."

"And each expansion releases the energy sealed within the dimension; with each additional dimension, the energy increases exponentially."

"This energy should be the legendary lifespan energy you generated from cultivating the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Immortal Technique for ten lifetimes."

"It's just that you passively learned this technique under the influence of the magic circlet."

"Now, as long as you unfold the energy circle, the released energy will flow through your consciousness and meridians, following specific routes, filling your entire body..."

Ah this?

"Stop!"

Tang Xuanci was completely bewildered, but felt a sense of awe and quickly thought:

"What development? Can you put it more like a human being?"

The beaker remained silent for a few seconds, then said in a very humane way:

"Okay. Have you watched Naruto?"

“Yes.”

"There's a ninjutsu called 'Eight Gates Formation.' Every time a ninja opens one gate, their internal energy surges dramatically, did you know that?"

"I know."

"Then you can imagine that every time the essence hoop expands one dimension, it's like opening a door, and the life energy released within will explode exponentially, circulating within your body."

"Holy crap... Nine-Dimensional Escape Technique?"

Tang Xuanci clicked his tongue in amazement, then thought for a moment and asked:
"Then what's the use of releasing this longevity fruit? Isn't the essence circlet sealing the longevity fruit? Does it mean it can grant me immortality?"

Beaker Road:
"You can understand it as a mysterious life force."

"Judging from the life energy fluctuations perceived from the initial activation of the essence hoop using incantations."

"When the dimensional reduction unfolds, this energy circulates within your body, and in addition to nurturing your consciousness, it may also temporarily amplify your power."

"But with your current physical strength, you absolutely cannot withstand the expansion of such a low dimension."

"If the essence hoop were to expand directly from the tenth dimension to the first dimension, the consequences would be terrifying. Not only would you not be able to live forever, but your entire being would also be completely melted away in the vast life energy."

Tang Xuanci said:

"Holy crap."

"Could it be that once I arrive at Mount Ling, this is the consequence? At that moment, Tathagata will directly unleash the magic circlet and melt me ​​into that longevity soup."

"If that's the case, then the magic circlet can't be completely broken right now?"

Beaker Road:
"Can.

"There is an unavoidable flaw in the design of the precision hoop. This flaw is easier to exploit than unfolding the hoop layer by layer, and it is estimated that it will be successful in a maximum of another 300 hours."

"When the vulnerability is opened, you can leak energy directly from the lower latitudes through __."

"Each time it leaks, the fine hoop will automatically degrade in dimensionality; after nine times, the energy will be completely lost, and the fine hoop will be no different from a tight hoop."

"At that time, you will be able to completely break the magic hoop without taking any risks."

Ah this?

To break the magic spell, they wasted all the life-giving energy that the gods and demons of the three realms were scrambling for. Wasn't that just stupid?

Tang Xuanci frowned and said:

"Why did the energy leak out after only nine times? I'm not a mouse that can only have sex a few times in my entire life."

"Can't you just let a little bit leak out each time?"

"For example, one milliliter, let Nailong and Wowo taste it first, and see if it can grant them immortality."

Beaker Road:
"According to mathematical calculations, this won't work."

"Whether the fine hoop is unfolded layer by layer or leaks directly, it must be measured in Planck units based on one cycle of the operating route, and cannot be divided into smaller units."

"Therefore, without replenishment, your life energy can only leak out a maximum of nine times before it is completely depleted."

"Moreover, since the leakage starts from the lowest dimension, the lifetime energy leaked in the first leakage accounts for at least half of the total lifetime energy."

Fake!

This damn headband is useless; it doesn't work at all.

It uses up most of the energy in one go, how can we conduct experiments like that?

Even if it were confirmed that immortality could be achieved, based on the amount mentioned in the legend of the Western Paradise dividing the flesh, it would probably result in a huge waste if Long Bao, Wo Bao, Qing Bao... Wu Kong, Wu Neng, and Wu Jing ate it together.

Tang Xuanci was speechless, racking his brains for a better solution.

But given the possibilities his intelligence could conceive of, the beaker had already considered them long ago; the only possible analysis is:
"If most of the immortal energy is lost, it is actually not without its benefits. It can greatly devalue Tang Sanzang's flesh, thus reducing the pressure considerably."

"Imagine if the life-extinction energy in your body only has the effect of a few golden pills left, who would bother to risk their life to cause trouble for you and the Great Sage Equal to Heaven?"

"It depends on your choice."

Without a second thought, Tang Xuanci decisively put aside the idea of ​​leaking life force and told everyone to hurry up and continue the research. They would first unfold the first dimension of the Nine Dimensions of Escape and see what happened.

"I've made some changes, can you take a look and see if this is correct?"

Suddenly, the monkey's voice rang out. It turned out that after much contemplation, it had directly used its magic to modify the equation on the paper.

Tang Xuanci snapped out of his daze, looked at it eager to completely break free of the golden headband, pondered for a moment, and then smiled:

"Alright, let's stop watching for now. I have some good news for you."

"What?" The monkey looked at him in confusion.

“Last night, I broke the quantum entanglement between the tight headband and the fine headband. In other words, even if I die now, you will be fine.”

oh! ?

Upon hearing that his only fatal weakness was gone, the monkey immediately beamed with joy after confirming it.

But amidst its joy, looking at its cheap master whose smile was a billion times brighter than the sun, it couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

After all, it's a monkey, not a fool.

Previously, there was suspicion that Tang Xuanci would deliberately delay the time to break the golden headband so that the Great Sage Equaling Heaven could stay by his side as a bodyguard.

Therefore, it studies mathematics twice as hard every day in order to find a clue.

Unexpectedly, I had wronged him.

To be honest, this monk... really has a lot of energy!

Thinking of this, the monkey stood on tiptoe, grabbed Tang Xuanci's shoulder, patted his chest, and said:

"What do you mean, even if you die, I'll be fine?"

"What kind of talk is that?"

"We're comrades, and with me, Old Sun, around, no one in the Three Realms will be able to kill you!"

However, what it didn't know was—

The beaker had already broken the entanglement effect of the tight headband when it deciphered the shielding method of the headband.

Moreover, the beaker has recently discerned its suspicions from its focus on mathematics.
