Chapter 59: Supernova Fizzles Out
It turns out that the earlier commotion was caused by a sudden nuclear fusion at the planet’s center.
Because Lu Chen had been constantly absorbing the high-temperature hydrogen from the supernova, his own temperature was also skyrocketing insanely.
When the planetary temperature reached five million degrees, the enormous energy caused the electrons within the atoms to break free from the atomic nuclei, and at that time, both the electrons and the atomic nuclei were in a state of high vibrational motion. There was a certain probability that atomic nuclei would collide with each other. When two highly vibrating atomic nuclei collided and fused, a new element would be formed, releasing a vast amount of energy!
This process is the nuclear fusion reaction.
Just now, when Lu Chen’s core temperature reached five million degrees, there were hydrogen atomic nuclei that collided, causing a nuclear fusion reaction; that’s why his planetary body suddenly experienced shaking and explosive sounds.
"Now I’m only at ten thousand planetary masses, still in the super planet stage, but the Hydrogen Element has already undergone nuclear fusion; could it be that I am the legendary Child of Destiny, superior in everything I do?"
Lu Chen started to mock himself gleefully.
However, Lu Chen’s thought just crossed his mind when he was slapped in the face by reality!
The nuclear fusion reaction at the center of the planet had stopped without any warning.
Lu Chen couldn’t help but feel utterly dumbfounded, puzzled, when suddenly, for some unknown reason, the Hydrogen Element at the core area once again initiated the nuclear fusion reaction!
