Wang Ye gently pressed his carbon acetylenic keratin layer with his fingertip and found that its hardness was equally terrifying. Despite being as thin as a cicada’s wing, its defense power could still withstand anti-material sniper rifle armor-piercing bullets.
Although he didn’t know why the keratin layer had changed this way, Wang Ye speculated that it might be due to a mutation of the keratin layer becoming ossified, similar to how keratin layers in nature can thicken and eventually evolve into exoskeletons, like in shells and snails.
In any case, this evolution is undoubtedly beneficial to Wang Ye.
Even though his skin had turned somewhat dark with the carbon acetylenic keratin layer, the degree of darkness was just like an ordinary Asian having tanned under the sun for a few days, not yet reaching the level of Big Black.
Similarly, his blood, blood vessels, and muscle fibers seemed to have mixed in many high-toughness materials due to the expulsion of impurities and absorption of minerals, making them much stronger than before.
Since his skeletons evolved into diamonds, his flesh had appeared very fragile. After fully unleashing his potential, even Gang Qi couldn’t protect his flesh which exploded leaving only the skeleton. But now enhanced, his flesh is gradually catching up to the strength of his skeleton. Now, even if his diamond skeleton were to be blasted to pieces, his flesh would not be completely destroyed.
Apart from the physical changes,
the Biological Force Field, or Gang Qi, had also seen enhancements in range and strength,
His Biological Force Field was originally only about one centimeter,
and its strength wasn’t very high, even when fully activated,
it could only block handgun or weak rifle bullets,
If made stronger, the Biological Force Field would break instantly,
and the flesh would have to withstand the damage.
Now, his body had formed an extensive Biological Force Field. Not only did its defense strength increase, but so did its thickness—from a single finger’s width to a palm’s width. It could now withstand even anti-material sniper rifles, and with the carbon acetylenic keratin layer within the Biological Force Field, his overall defense is, without exaggeration, several times stronger than before.
Moreover, anything within ten centimeters of his body would be instantly repelled, because the Biological Force Field also had certain elasticity. The struck part would automatically trigger Newton’s Third Law with a 300% amplification, and any bullet or other attack that could not breach the Biological Force Field would rebound seven times its initial speed in the opposite direction of attack, in a more powerful manner towards the enemy.
If an ordinary person punched Wang Ye with full force, the next second, they would be knocked back as if hit by a car moving at seventy kilometers per hour, and the bones in their hand and arm would suffer comminuted fractures from the rebound.
Additionally, Wang Ye could freely adjust the direction of the rebound, meaning that after a bullet hit him, he could aim it back at the opponent.
The prerequisite for all of this is that his Biological Force Field can withstand the attack; if the attack’s intensity exceeds the limit of the Biological Force Field, it would break instantly.
Additionally, Wang Ye discovered during his exploration that wrapping his fist with the Biological Force Field could release shockwaves that can shatter a target’s armor, meaning this Biological Force Field could also be an offensive technique.
While Wang Ye was exploring his Biological Force Field, the system’s upgrade was completed.
He summoned the panel and intended to check what the skill synthesized from Vajra Indestructible and Bone Shrinking Skill was called.
[Law of Heaven and Earth Lv1 (0.01)]
When this name appeared in front of Wang Ye, he was dumbfounded.
The earlier upgrade of Golden Bell Shield to Vajra Indestructible could be explained, as his physical body was indeed as strong as steel, aligning with the description of Vajra Indestructible Body in ancient texts.
But the Law of Heaven and Earth is a true Divine Technique, a manifestation of physical body techniques’ ultimate limit in mythology, like Sun Wukong in Journey to the West: "His body was ten thousand feet tall, his head like Mount Tai, waist like a steep ridge, eyes like lightning, mouth like a blood basin, and teeth like swords." It emphasized the power and ability to match the might of heaven and earth.
Simply put, it referred to the ability to control the body to become as tall as the sky and as wide as the earth.
Although Wang Ye could control his body to undergo moderate changes in size, his maximum height was only two to three meters, while the minimum was about one meter. This was obviously a far cry from the mythical Law of Heaven and Earth.
"Does the system mean that if I train this skill to level five, I can become as strong as a mountain as in the myths?" Wang Ye pondered this guess after thinking for a moment.
After all, this skill is a proper Tier Three Extraordinary Skill. At this stage, Divine Speed Skill, at level one, hovered around five hundred kilometers per hour in speed and easily surpassed supersonic at level two.
This indicates that the strength of skills at this stage undergoes earth-shattering changes with each level.
Of course, the difficulty of upgrade is also exceedingly challenging. Wang Ye obtained Divine Speed two months ago and trained at high intensity almost every day, but it still took two months to bring it to level two. Moreover, at the current pace of skill level advancement, it may take another half a year to boost Divine Speed to level three.
