Porphyry Nodes is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
At the beginning of your upkeep, destroy the creature with the least power. It can't be regenerated. If two or more creatures are tied for least power, you choose one of them. When there are no creatures on the battlefield, sacrifice this enchantment.

- #2· Wizards of the Coast
No player can take actions between the time you choose which creature to destroy and the time it's destroyed.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If one of the creatures with the least power has indestructible, you must destroy one without indestructible. If all creatures with the least power have indestructible, you don't destroy any creature.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
If all creatures on the battlefield leave and immediately return (perhaps because Momentary Blink exiled and returned the only creature), the last ability of Porphyry Nodes triggers. You'll sacrifice it even though a creature's on the battlefield by the time the ability resolves.
No other card is named in this ruling.
