This also sparked a bold idea in Wang Ye’s mind: "If I consume a large amount of metal, especially chromium, would my bones be able to grow indefinitely?"

It’s important to note that by merely consuming 15 kilograms of chromium metal, his body produced a large amount of abnormal bone. His entire body shape could dramatically change. So what would happen if he consumed 100 kilograms, or even 1000 kilograms of chromium metal? How would his bones transform?

Would he become a terrifying giant creature like Ultraman or Godzilla, or would he turn into a giant immobile iron man?

However, with Wang Ye’s analytical capability, he quickly calculated that this hypothesis was unrealistic.

It’s key to understand that bone growth does not drive muscle growth. In other words, the larger his bones, the weaker his strength, and if the bones grow too large, he might not even be able to walk because the muscle coverage per unit area would be too low, unable to pull the bones with muscle power.

Even though his muscle density is dozens of times that of an ordinary human, it might not withstand such a shocking body size.

However, if his size is large enough, just sheer body weight could squash an enemy to death. If aimed well, it might even suppress a tank from the front.

But this method is somewhat unconventional,

and using it once would ruin the body, and the effect is uncertain.

The best method Wang Ye currently sees for using this skill is to deform his bones into an abnormal shape that his muscles can adapt to, and under certain specific circumstances, unleash more power than his original bones. For example, like earlier, having bone blades grow from his fists, or transforming his arms to a form with explosive power, making his punches penetrate more forcefully.

Alternatively, after the abnormal bone grows, he could break it off and use it as hidden weapons. Though, this method is somewhat against humanity.

Wang Ye tried to have three bone blades emerge again from his right fist’s knuckles, and then broke them one by one with his left hand.

Since there are no pain nerves in the bones, he didn’t feel significant pain while breaking them. At most, when the bone blade was under stress, its root would cause some tearing damage to the flesh.

Crunch, crunch...

Wang Ye felt his fingers tiring halfway through breaking them because his bones had a high chromium element content, making them difficult to break. And since the deliberately grown bone claws were very sharp, they would cut his hand during the breaking process.

Soon,

Three segments of bone claws, about ten centimeters long, were broken into 20 somewhat substantial hidden weapons.

Wang Ye carried these hidden weapons made from abnormal bones out of the villa,

scanning his surroundings.

After confirming that no one was there,

he hurled them fiercely at a tree fifty meters away.

Whoosh!!!

The bone blade fragment instantly penetrated through the trunk and embedded into the ground.

Wang Ye walked over, retrieved the hidden weapon from the ground, rubbed the dirt off with his fingertip, and then put it into his mouth, chewing it a couple of times before swallowing.

The mixture of various metal elements in the bone blade fragments was immediately digested, decomposed into the purest elements, quietly staying within his body, readily available for use.

It must be said, this method of making hidden weapons is indeed very convenient. Sometimes when the hidden weapons he carries run out, he can make more, and under suitable conditions, even recycle them.

Just as he was about to continue practicing his throwing,

suddenly, his motion halted,

he looked at his right arm, lost in thought.

He realized that now, possessing the ability to control bone growth, he should also be able to enhance his throwing power by controlling changes in his arm bones.

It’s understood that forms most suitable for explosive force are often the softest forms, like whips, nunchaku, rods with a certain flexibility, etc.

However, through prolonged throwing practice, Wang Ye profoundly realized that human bones are way too rigid. Although the shoulder joint, elbow joint, and wrist joint can each bend to exert force, the ultimate explosion effect is still unsatisfactory.

In Wang Ye’s imagination, the most suitable form for explosive power would be to have his arm bones break into hundreds or thousands of segments, becoming whip-like.

If he could change his arm bones to his ideal model, his throwing experience could at least double the current throwing power.

The essence of whipping force lies in originating force from the source, magnified step-by-step in the medium. With a long enough whip, the wielder only needs to exert slight force at the origin to escalate into an extremely terrifying destructive power. Like those baseball players’ pitchers, their throwing motion after years of training momentarily makes the elbow reverse joint, forming a curve, overall resembling a whip.

But the outcome of pitching like this is various arm sequelae after future retirements.

Wang Ye’s current motion, after systematic improvements, naturally surpasses these professional pitchers being able to use more scientific, healthier movements to throw with more mechanically suitable power.

If someone filmed his throwing action with the most advanced high-speed camera and slowed it a hundred times, it would be apparent that his arm forms an extremely perfect curve while throwing. But this is still not enough, because his action only forms a perfect curve at that moment. In reality, the power is only magnified threefold by the three joints, whereas a real whip, during its swing, is magnified hundreds or thousands of times.

So, upon obtaining the ability to control bone development, Wang Ye immediately realized he can use this ability to alter his arm bone structure to further enhance his throwing power.

He returned to the villa, placing the dozen bone blade fragments clutched in his palm on the table.

Then extended his right hand, envisioning his arm bones breaking into countless fragments.

Gradually, his arms emitted a sizzling popping sound.

If he attentively observed his right arm at this moment, he would notice the flesh wriggling crazily, as if numerous tiny worms were drilling around inside;

however, in reality, this was just an anomaly caused by the rapid transformation of the bones.

Three joints breaking into hundreds or thousands of joint segments, meaning his right arm, in these few short minutes, required countless splits!

A large amount of bone was dissolved by the body into free metal elements, and then fabricated into new joints.

A joint typically comprises three complex structures: the first being the joint surface, the contact area between bones forming concave-convex structures; the concave part is the socket, and the convex part the joint head. The second, the joint capsule, is a bag-like structure surrounding the joint, and the third is the joint cavity within the joint capsule, filled with synovial fluid to reduce friction and protect the joint.

Wang Ye’s task was to sever the original bone and fabricate complex joint structures between them while minimizing these complex joint structures to millimeter-scale, allowing every centimeter of his arm to house multiple joints. This would make his entire arm sufficiently flexible.

Finally, five minutes passed.

Wang Ye’s arm now possessed one hundred fifty joints.

He slightly moved his arm, and an astonishing scene unfolded.

The formerly rigid arm suddenly became as fluid and flexible as water. Slightly moving his shoulder caused his fingertips to whisk through the air at high speed, emitting a snapping sound.

Wang Ye, thrilled, immediately grabbed the dozen bone blade fragments from the table.

Preparing to step outside to test his painstakingly transformed soft whip arm.
