Chapter 34, "Star Tribulation"
Jiang Ming began a long process of revision.
He thrust out with his spear, his Heavenly Eye recording all the data in real time. He then sheathed his spear, focused his mind, and slowed down, analyzed, and reconstructed every detail of the thrust in his mind.
Thrust again, adjust the angle of the Force flow at the intersection, fine-tune the timing of muscle contraction, and change the frequency of the Force as it penetrates the spear...
One shot, a hundred shots, ten thousand shots...
Time flies by at a speed 360 times faster than in the Time Chamber.
Jiang Ming was completely immersed in this cycle of "insight-correction-verification".
Each shot is more precise, more coordinated, and closer to the theoretically perfect exertion than the previous one.
Three months later, Jiang Ming fired his 2.47 millionth shot since he went into seclusion.
At the instant the spear thrust was thrust out, from the perspective of the Heavenly Eye, the trajectory of the primal force flowing within the body, the ripples of coordinated muscle contraction...
The frequency of the gun's resonance is perfectly synchronized among the three elements!
hum!
The gun emitted a trembling sound like a dragon's roar.
At the tip of the spear, a point of golden light shone as brightly as the sun. This was not the radiance of the Force, but rather a strange phenomenon of air distortion caused by the high concentration of energy.
The power of this shot was a staggering 6.3 times the normal force!
It exceeded the theoretical power of the "World Destroyer" gun technique by 6 times.
"Not enough."
Jiang Ming holstered his gun, his eyes devoid of any smugness.
"The 'World Destruction' technique was ultimately created by 'Hong,' and its power system is built upon the physical structure and cognitive foundation of 'Earth's martial artists. And I..."
He looked down at his hands; under his divine eye's vision, the cellular structure of his hands had already broken through to the planetary level.
After undergoing multiple transformations, including the Life Fruit and the Golden Source Fruit, they became fundamentally different from ordinary humans on Earth.
They have higher bone density, more elastic and explosive muscle fibers, a wider and tougher meridian network, and even the activity of their energy-carrying units is far superior to that of ordinary people.
In many aspects, such as cell activity, it is different from that of humans on Earth.
This is why Jiang Ming's physical attributes surpassed those of a normal human martial artist after breaking through to the planetary level.
After breaking through to the planetary level, the standard strength of a human martial artist is between 100 million and 200 million kilograms.
However, some human races are naturally more skilled in strength, and after breaking through to the planetary level, they naturally gain more strength than other human races.
Jiang Ming's human nature remains unchanged, but his body has become so abnormal that he no longer resembles an earthling.
"The 'World Destruction' technique is no longer the most suitable for me. With my skills, I can create a new shooting technique that suits my current body."
The idea of a 19-year-old creating his own planetary-level marksmanship sounds like a fantasy.
But Jiang Ming already had a plan in mind.
In his subsequent cultivation, Jiang Ming no longer adhered to the words of the "World Destruction" manual.
With each shot, he would use his Heavenly Eye to subtly adjust the Force path and change the order of muscle activation.
Experiment with new frequency resonance modes.
Jiang Ming continuously disassembled, reorganized, and optimized every aspect of the effort.
"What kind of destructive effect do I need to achieve with a single thrust?"
How to transfer maximum kinetic energy with minimal physical exertion?
How can I integrate marksmanship into my physical characteristics?
How can domain control and marksmanship be combined to make them complement each other?
Jiang Ming has experienced the martial arts of "Li Tian Jue" and has dissected the origins of the "Destroy the World" spear technique. He is also a true domain martial artist.
With the blessing of the Heavenly Eye, his understanding of martial arts techniques surpasses that of anyone else on Earth.
Even Hong, even Thor, cannot compare to him in this respect.
In the seventh month of the Time Chamber, Jiang Ming created the first new gun.
Jiang Ming named it Guanyue!
In the ninth month, the second new gun, [Golden Flow], was born!
In the eleventh month, the third new gun was introduced.
[The Judgment of Heaven]
As the various spear techniques were created and refined, they were not isolated, but rather built together on a unified system.
This system is based on Jiang Ming's own body, uses the energy circulation path optimized to the extreme by Tianmu as its pulse, and uses the prototype of "Golden Domain Sharpness" as its blade, with the three elements seamlessly integrated.
"I should give my marksmanship a name."
Jiang Ming was overjoyed at the success of his method.
"My gun possesses the sharpness to shatter all laws, the weight to bear the weight of mountains and rivers, and the resilience to withstand the flames of calamity. It should have... the ambition to open up the starry sea and illuminate eternity!"
"This spear shall be called the Star Calamity."
Jiang Ming muttered to himself, thrusting his spear forward.
When the gun was fired, time seemed to stand still for a moment in the gravity chamber.
There was no earth-shattering sound, only an extremely faint hissing sound.
The three-pointed double-edged spear in Jiang Ming's hand transformed into a thin, faint golden line, piercing straight out.
In front of the spear tip, the air was annihilated by an extremely concentrated force, creating a vacuum channel.
At the end of the passage, on the seemingly indestructible wall of the gravity chamber, a dot-shaped dent about two millimeters deep appeared!
Although not nearly as deep as the fist imprint left by Hong, Jiang Ming estimated that the force of this strike was at a level that was...
12 times!
Before "Star Calamity", Earth's strongest sword technique, "Ninefold Thunder Blade", could reach a power level of seven times.
Now, "Star Tribulation" has surpassed "Nine-fold Thunder Blade" as soon as it was released.
"We still have a month left, so we can't waste it."
Jiang Ming walked to the door and adjusted the gravity level in the gravity chamber to 1000 times.
A planetary-level martial artist is capable of withstanding a thousand times their own weight, but Jiang Ming had previously only maintained a hundred times the weight.
This wasn't because Jiang Ming's body couldn't withstand it, but because under a thousand times the force of gravity, the weight of the three-pointed double-edged spear reached two million kilograms.
Jiang Ming could actually lift that weight.
But even Jiang Ming couldn't practice with a spear of that weight for long periods of time.
hum!
An invisible, terrifying gravitational force descended instantly!
Even though Jiang Ming was already at the first level of the planetary stage and his body had undergone multiple enhancements, he still couldn't help but feel a slight sinking under this thousand times gravity.
"A martial artist at the first level of the planetary realm has bones strong enough to withstand a thousand times the force of gravity; their internal organs are weaker, requiring further training."
It takes time to adapt to a thousand times the force of gravity.
Jiang Ming adjusted his breathing and activated the "Star Tribulation Guiding Technique." While creating the technique, he also optimized the accompanying guiding method.
Under a thousand times the force of gravity, every cell in the body is left to adapt, resist, and evolve.
A wooden crystal flew up automatically and landed close to his brow.
Under the precise guidance of Tianmu and the ultimate control of "Martial Arts Divine Connection", Muya Crystal's energy was not wasted at all, and quickly permeated every corner of Jiang Ming's body.
At the same time, Jiang Ming's consciousness was not completely immersed in energy absorption.
A portion of his consciousness was diverted to absorb the energy of the wooden crystal, while the rest of his mind focused on practicing his movements.
Under a thousand times the force of gravity, Jiang Ming's muscle coordination was not smooth when he exerted force with each step.
However, as time went on, Jiang Ming's movement techniques became more and more adapted to the thousand times gravity, and his movement skill level gradually improved. When the silver light membrane formed by the one-time time acceleration room quietly dissipated, Jiang Ming's martial arts level also stabilized at the second level of the planetary level.
"It's time to go out."
