As soon as Lin Xian heard it, he knew Liu Feng was talking about this contraption.
The group moved forward together to take a look.
The two Space-Time Particle Captors indeed looked pretty much like rice cookers.
“It really does resemble a rice cooker,” Chu Anqing remarked.
“Makes sense!” Gao Yang snarked,
“In the ‘Dragon Ball’ manga, Master Wutian sealed Demon King Piccolo with a rice cooker.
From that perspective, a rice cooker is indeed an incredible sealing artifact—it might actually capture that magical thing!”
Huang Que gave Gao Yang a look that said “Are you an idiot?” and then turned to Gao Yang, Chu Anqing, and Wei Cheng:
“You three go to another training room to practice something else.
We need to discuss some things with Lin Xian.”
Wei Cheng nodded and took Gao Yang and Chu Anqing with him to leave.
In the spacious training room, only Huang Que, Lin Xian, and Liu Feng remained.
“Liu Feng, now you can speak freely,” Lin Xian said.

Liu Feng nodded and looked at Lin Xian:
“Lin Xian, this is actually the [Space-Time Particle Captor], but Huang Que asked me not to tell them yet and to use alpha matter as a substitute.”
“No problem, I’m following you.
Go on.”
Liu Feng squatted down, opened one of the Space-Time Particle Captors, and showed Lin Xian the structure inside…
Ordinary.
It was truly exactly like a rice cooker.
“Making the captor look like this, you’re quite the talent,” Lin Xian teased.
“This is already the optimal structure and size,” Liu Feng insisted.
Liu Feng explained:
“Temporarily binding the space-time particles isn’t difficult, but considering emergency situations, what if it escapes?
So…
if we reduce the size of the ‘field’ that confines space-time particles and increase its density, like this, it can make the space-time particles instantly lose their activity.”
“Activity?”
Lin Xian inquired:
“Do you mean the space-time particles are still lively and kicking?
Didn’t you say it was very stable before?”
“You could understand it as lively and kicking,” Liu Feng nodded,
“The stability I mentioned before refers to its chemical, physical, and even its form stability, not the stability of its pathway or route.
Over this past half-month, my tracking and research on space-time particles have deepened, and I’ve discovered that this particle’s trajectory…
is completely different from what we understood.”
Liu Feng looked around, casually tore off a sheet from the back of Wei Cheng’s notebook, crumpled it into the size of a ping pong ball, and held it in front of Lin Xian:
“For instance, this paper ball is a [Space-Time Particle] heading towards Earth; it has already passed Jupiter and is following Earth without slowing down.
It’s about to enter the asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.”
“According to our universe’s understanding of object motion, it’s supposed to be [continuous], right?”
With the paper ball in hand, Liu Feng fluttered it to the left, then to the right, before switching to a frenzied mode, letting it fly chaotically in all directions:
“Look, Lin Xian, according to our everyday understanding of object motion, no matter how this little paper ball moves, it always has a [trajectory].
It’s [continuous]; it must pass through a certain point on its path at a certain time to reach its destination, right?”
“This concept is easy to grasp, isn’t it?
It’s like taking a high-speed camera and recording my movements with the paper ball in slow motion.
You can pause the video at any point in time, and you can still see the paper ball, see it in a certain position.
𝑛𝗈𝘃𝘨𝗼.co
It absolutely wouldn’t vanish into thin air…
even if you pinpoint it to 0.00001 seconds, you could still accurately locate the paper ball.”
Lin Xian nodded:
“That’s easy to understand.”
Rather, isn’t that how object motion is supposed to work?
Whether someone is running a lap around the track,
an airplane is flying from the East Sea to the Imperial Capital,
or a satellite is orbiting Earth,
Voyager 1 is leaving the Solar System,
or even photons shooting towards the universe at the speed of light…
And so on and so forth.
All objects in motion, no matter how big or small, fast or slow, have a trajectory, a path.
It’s impossible for someone to be standing inside a room, and then the next second they suddenly disappear from the room and reappear outside.
That’s not realistic.
People have to exit through the door or climb out the window; they always need to travel a certain path to reach their destination.
“I understand the concept of continuity you’re talking about,” Lin Xian said,
“But I’m even more curious…
what does a [discontinuous movement] look like?”
“It’s like this.”
Liu Feng raised the paper ball in his left hand, squeezed it in his fist until it wasn’t visible anymore.
Then, he stretched out his right hand, opened it for Lin Xian to see—
inside, there appeared another paper ball.
“Then, the next movement.” Liu Feng pointed to the floor on his left side, where another paper ball had appeared:
“That space-time particle, that’s how it moves.”
“Its motion is discontinuous; it vanishes from one place abruptly and then instantaneously appears not too far away!
It proceeds by blinking in and out.
If I were to use an easy-to-understand term from video games…
”
“[This space-time particle isn’t running or flying but continuously teleporting, its trajectory isn’t continuous but very jumpy].”
Blinking…
Naturally, Lin Xian understood; it was a common skill in online games—a fitting description for the trajectory of space-time particles.
