309 Becomes Impermanence

All bodies and souls were annihilated, I thought I was undoubtedly going to die, yet for some unknown reason, I have not yet died.

No, actually I now understand why I have not died...

It's because my spirit has fused with natural thermal energy. This fusion is not like treating natural heat as a house in which my spirit resides. It goes deeper—my spirit has melded into the natural heat. To put it more completely, now, I am the heat itself.

This ability didn't just suddenly appear; from the beginning, I possessed the ability to perceive my surroundings by melding my spirit with natural heat. Given this characteristic, I had also pondered under what circumstances I could be killed. One possible scenario I concluded was that unless I didn't set up "fireflies" and thermal energy markers in other areas, and no other derivations of power, and my enemy created an absolute zero environment around me, I would never die.
