You Have Science, I Have Martial Arts-Chapter 440 - 218: Cyber Martial Dao, Mechanical Ascension
The charred corpse connected to the severed hand scattered with the wind in an instant, even the ashes were blown away, dying in utter misery.
"Delivering goods right before dying, there really are a lot of good people in this world."
Ye Qingzhou eagerly played with Duan Wu’s only remaining severed hand, even activating the Celestial Eye to carefully analyze the material, structure, and technical craftsmanship of the hand.
Huang Liwen came over and, seeing Ye Qingzhou toying with a severed hand, felt an intense chill: "Old Ye, you’re acting strange, playing with such a creepy thing."
In his view, the severed hand was, to some extent, Duan Wu’s "remains."
Ye Qingzhou, being a materialist, sneered: "What do you know? This arm holds immense technical value."
"Immense? How immense?"
"About as immense as a four or five-story building."
Duan Qianfeng was a Martial Saint-level expert, with unique forging skills, although not comparable to the Inheritance of Flame Emperor in the Celestial Casting Scripture, there were still admirable aspects.
Moreover, Ye Qingzhou noticed traces of Armor Folding Technique modifications on the Profound Gold Qilin Arm, but both the technical methods and modification ideas were quite different from the Armor Folding Technique Ye Qingzhou had learned.
Under the observational effects of the Celestial Eye, Ye Qingzhou quickly noticed the key point: "This severed hand used blood and flesh-modifying technology for its forging. Duan Qianfeng refined the Earth Evil Power into the muscles and bone marrow of the severed hand, then integrated many rare treasures for strengthening; truly incredible."
The Earth Evil Power is vicious and chaotic, extinguishing vitality, a special disorderly energy that only Martial Artists at the Grandmaster Realm can handle with a strong physique.
The only exception Ye Qingzhou had encountered was Niu Taijie. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The famous Tiger Demon Golden Saber was Niu Taijie forcibly refining a wisp of Heaven and Earth Evil Qi into his body, and then releasing it through martial techniques when needed.
Even Master-level Martial Artists had a hard time handling martial techniques enhanced with Evil Qi.
Such was the dominance of the Earth Evil Power.
Because this is a negative energy naturally produced by Heaven and Earth, imbued with characteristics of destruction and ruin.
The most typical case is the Earth Vein Fire Fiend, which causes volcanic eruptions when released, triggering earthquakes, causing living beings to tremble with fear and dread.
"Niu Taijie wasn’t even at the Professional Level back then yet could handle the Earth Evil Qi; the technical approach has some similarities to the Profound Gold Qilin Arm before us."
After a moment of thought, Ye Qingzhou grasped the key: "It’s the Armor Folding Technique!"
The human body cannot withstand the Earth Evil Power because flesh and blood are too fragile, but what if one doesn’t remain human?
Ye Qingzhou pondered, then reached out to draw in the Earth Vein Fire Fiend from the Profound Gold Qilin Arm into his own right arm.
In an instant, Ye Qingzhou’s entire right arm turned red and black, with flame-like patterns cracking open on the skin surface, resembling a mass of flowing magma.
When he swung his fist, there was a thunderous boom on the scene.
With the powerful impact of the flame stream, a nearby residential building collapsed in a violent explosion, turning entirely into a sea of fire. The ground formed a deep pit, and black-red magma slowly flowed within it, as if hell had descended upon the human realm, with flames transforming into an inferno, incinerating and devouring everything around.
"Such formidable power!"
Ye Qingzhou had merely swung a light punch, yet unleashed destruction like a mini volcanic eruption, blasting a volcanic crater over ten meters in diameter into the ground!
The huge noise even alarmed the City Guard Army, with several squads of soldiers rushing over, thinking that remnants of rebel forces were causing trouble again. Upon seeing it was Ye Qingzhou, they immediately put on smiles, asking with concern: "Mr. Ye, did you encounter an enemy attack?"
"No, I was testing a new technique."
Ye Qingzhou waved his hand carelessly; by now, his right arm had turned entirely charred, with large amounts of cells dying directly, which would’ve led to amputation for an ordinary person.
The City Guard Army swore inwardly, but Ye Qingzhou was currently a favored guest of the Lord City Lord, so they could only withdraw reluctantly, not daring to reprimand him.
Many soldiers even looked at Ye Qingzhou with eyes full of reverence.
Glancing at the volcanic crater-like pit on the ground, they suspected that Ye Qingzhou might be a Grandmaster Level expert; otherwise, how could he summon the Earth Evil Power and unleash such a terrifying strike?
After the City Guard Army departed, Huang Liwen exclaimed: "Damn, Old Ye, when did you become so fierce?"
Ye Qingzhou mobilized the Innate Wood Qi within his body to heal the injury on his right arm, while saying: "I just extracted part of the Earth Evil Power from the Profound Gold Qilin Arm, do you now see how high the technical content of this thing is?"
"Damn, could this Qilin Arm be nuclear-powered or something?"
Huang Liwen was taken aback.
Merely extracting part of the power resulted in such destruction; how strong must the owner of this arm be?
Ye Qingzhou seemed to read his thoughts, smiling as he said: "This kind of strength borrowed from external forces means nothing. See, didn’t Duan Wu die? The Profound Gold Qilin Arm only boosted his destructive power, but he remained fragile, shattering at a touch."
Huang Liwen couldn’t help but retort: "He was blown up by you, alright? And you’re here making sarcastic remarks."
Then Huang Liwen glanced again at the injury on Ye Qingzhou’s right hand: "The Earth Evil Power can only be handled by Grandmasters; forcibly refining Evil Qi into the body is certain death. You’re not considering trying to refine Evil into the body now, are you? You’ll die!"
