The second path was simple. If the connections between matter were weak, he just had to strengthen them.
Weak connections are like water—a simple cut cannot sever the bonds between its particles.
Strong connections are like a solid—once cut, it can hardly mend itself.
This is because the intermolecular forces in water are weak, allowing it to flow and re-form freely.
In contrast, the atomic forces in a solid are strong and its structure is fixed. Once broken, the original strong bonds are difficult to restore.
Murphy made up his mind.
A dazzling crimson light suddenly erupted from his body.
In the blink of an eye, Murphy's human silhouette dissolved into the light. In its place hovered an ancient longsword, roughly 1.6 meters long and entirely crimson.
Inscribed upon its blade were complex and esoteric Dao Patterns of dark gold. These markings weren't static; they pulsed and flowed as if breathing.
Then, the crimson Longsword trembled lightly.
HUM!
