In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 242 The Power of Alchemy and Weaponry!

If the farewells of Mi Fei and An Yiyi left Shen Xing feeling a little lonely, then the arrival of Nangong Jinyi on the last day brought her some joy.

After all, he already knew about Nangong Jinyi's decision from Mi Fei.

"I have left the Nangong family." Nangong Jinyi still looked the same as when they first met, with a faint smile. "You can no longer call me Miss."

"That won't do." Shen Xing shook her head and joked, "To me, you're still a young lady."

Nangong Jinyi smiled slightly and got straight to the point: "What position do you plan to give me?"

"The head of the gun and cannon research department," Shen Xing blurted out.

This made Nangong Jinyi's expression somewhat strange.

"Although I have a talent for learning the essence of martial arts related to firearms, I am not a researcher. Spending time learning it would delay my martial arts training."

"It won't be a delay." Shen Xing smiled mysteriously. "I will arrange some weapons technicians for you, but there are some things that only powerful martial artists can master, so you will have to cooperate."

"What exactly is it?" Nangong Jinyi realized that Shen Xing was not joking, and couldn't help but feel curious.

For her, making the decision to leave the Nangong family and join Shen Xing's research institute was actually quite risky.

Because the Nangong family's battle group is considered one of the most powerful battle groups.

And she also gained the status of a direct descendant.

If he becomes powerful enough in the future to advance to the seventh or even eighth realm, he might even become the head of the Nangong family.

Of course, given everything Shen Xing has shown, her future is equally promising, so although her family does not support her choice, they do not oppose it either.

At this moment, Nangong Jinyi suddenly had a premonition.

Perhaps, she won't have to wait until later; she'll soon be glad she made that choice.

"Come with me." Shen Xing didn't bother with any more words and led Nangong Jinyi to his cultivation room.

The spaceship's manufacturing is now in its final stages, but it is not yet complete. Only the place where Shen Xing cultivates is the most secretive.

At this moment, after a quick check, Shen Xing reached out his hand.

"Watch closely."

As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of Yuan energy appeared, rapidly drawing a profound inscription in the air.

Then, with a loud bang.

Suddenly, a burst of intense heat erupted!

Nangong Jinyi's eyes widened in surprise.

But this was not the end. Shen Xing drew another inscription, and the temperature plummeted to tens of degrees below zero.

Then came the protective gear, the strong winds, and even lightning.

Finally, Shen Xing drew a long sword with inscriptions and handed it over.

Nangong Jinyi gripped her long sword, channeling her inner energy into it. For the first time, she couldn't maintain her elegant demeanor.

"This is... a martial arts concept that can be engraved onto materials?" She suddenly looked at Shen Xing.

"That's a good summary," Shen Xing said with a smile. "You should be able to realize what this means."

Nangong Jinyi certainly understood, but it was precisely because she understood that she was so shocked!

She understood all too well what this meant!

This means that martial artists will have weapons that are more suitable for them!

It should be understood that nowadays, apart from cold weapons, all other weapons are not really related to the extraordinary power of the martial artist.

Even armor is powered by high-performance computing and non-supernatural energy sources, which are used to enhance the attacker's offensive and defensive capabilities.

However, there was not much improvement at the extraordinary level.

The amazing inscription before us completely shatters that notion!

It can use the Yuan energy of martial artists as its energy source!

Its power depends on the strength of the martial artist!

"How could such a wondrous thing exist?" Nangong Jinyi murmured to herself, even feeling an uncontrollable excitement. "This thing will propel human civilization into a completely new era!"

That's right, this kind of inscription can truly combine martial arts and technological equipment to a high degree!

A true unity!

Nangong Jinyi knew even more than Shen Xing did.

Once you reach the seventh realm, the Federation's existing weapons are no longer as good in terms of quality. Even the planet-destroying cannons are no match and are simply not effective against martial artists. Similarly, once you reach the seventh realm, you don't even have the matching armor anymore, so the increase in strength is far less than that below the seventh realm!

But this thing in front of us can easily break through that barrier!

If this were placed on armor of the seventh realm, or even used to forge super-large armor, it's hard to imagine how much the strength of those powerful martial artists would increase!

"Shen Xing." Nangong Jinyi looked up at Shen Xing abruptly, her gaze grave. "This technology must be kept highly confidential! At least until you reach the fifth realm, no, the sixth realm, it cannot be fully exposed!"

"I know," Shen Xing said with a smile, "that's why I waited until after I bought the spaceship before deciding to take it out."

"That's right, that's how it should be." Nangong Jinyi nodded.

She didn't ask Shen Xing where he learned these runes, nor was there any need to ask.

Knowing the value of these inscriptions is enough.

Moreover, she also realized what Shen Xing wanted her to do.

"You're thinking of starting with firearms and seeing if you can increase their power?"

"Hmm." Shen Xing nodded. "The gun-related martial arts techniques you know are essentially a fusion of a martial artist's strength and firearms. You should be better suited to handle this. Once you've completed this part of the research, you can install it on the armor to enhance its destructive power. These runes can be hidden during the forging process, serving as a special application technique for elemental energy, and won't be completely exposed."

"I understand." Nangong Jinyi had already understood Shen Xing's thoughts.

First, conduct research and testing within the research institute to accumulate technical expertise. As long as it is properly concealed, at least the martial artists in the research institute will not be able to tell that this is actually a martial arts concept; at most, they will be amazed by its effects.

But it's common knowledge that Shen Xing has mysterious backing, so what's so strange about him bringing out such advanced armored weaponry technology?

And she is indeed the most suitable person to conduct this kind of research.

On the one hand, it's due to the level of trust; on the other hand, researchers who are not powerful martial artists are probably unable to master these inscriptions that belong to the realm of martial arts.

"Leave it to me." Nangong Jinyi finally accepted the task directly, clearly looking forward to it.

Her hunch was right.

She didn't need to wait until later; right now, she was already glad she had chosen this place.

"Then let's start work now." Shen Xing smiled, then handed over a bottle. "Your cultivation method focuses on the soul, so these pills should be of great use to you. With me, your future will definitely be brighter than if you stayed in the Nangong family."

Nangong Jinyi pursed her lips slightly, reached out and took it, and chuckled, "Even if I didn't know these things, I wouldn't doubt this."

“.” Shen Xing could naturally see something else, and after a moment of silence, he smiled and said, “There’s still a long time ahead.”

"Mm." Nangong Jinyi nodded slightly, her eyes bright.

At this point, all the major arrangements have been made.

After that day, the final modifications to the spaceship were completed. Shen Xing personally completed the last step, confirming the highest authority over the spaceship. Then, the relocation of personnel began.

It includes various equipment and supplies.

After everything was ready, Shen Xing ran to say goodbye to Hu Yanzhong. The spaceship slowly left the lunar port and flew towards Jupiter.

There's no need for a jump; Shen Xing plans to fly across this distance slowly over a week.

This will also allow everyone to get used to interstellar life.

At the same time, he was finally able to boldly do some things he had longed to do in this kingdom that belonged only to him.

The first step is to accelerate the learning of the essence of martial arts.

There was no need to hide anything anymore. When more than sixty Earth-grade Dragon-type Martial Arts Intents were unleashed, Lu Daqian, the Minister of Resources in charge of this aspect, was completely dumbfounded.

It should be noted that there are only five top-tier dragon-type martial arts techniques in the entire Human Federation!

That's right, only five doors!

One of them was registered by Shen Xing before.

In total, Shen Xing took out more than eighty items!

Eighty!

Lu Daqian suddenly realized why his boss was so powerful!

How terrifying must this Myriad Dragons Technique be elevated to!

It might have already undergone a qualitative change!

"Keep this a secret." Faced with Lu Daqian's shock, Shen Xing simply smiled faintly, then tossed out a bottle of pills—the last twenty-odd Eight-Patterned Golden Dragon Pills he had left. "Let's see if these pills can be used to learn these martial arts concepts?"

The initial batch obtained from Dan Chengzi had already been used up in previous cultivation.

These twenty-odd coins were newly obtained from the Tianyuan Sect.

It can be considered the only remaining stock of the Tianyuan Sect.

Of course, they had three fifth-grade alchemists who had already restarted the furnace to refine pills. Normally, these dozen or so pills would be enough to last until the new pills arrived.

However, if it's used to learn the essence of Earth-grade Dragon-type martial arts.

Sure enough, after carefully studying these pills, Lu Daqian fell into a state of frenzy.

"A miracle! This pill is a miracle! Its composition is completely different from our understanding. It was actually fused together under some unique will. What is this? This..." Before he could finish speaking, he saw the pill formula that Shen Xing had thrown out.

He was trembling and shaking so badly that he couldn't say a word!

Prior to this, it was already rumored within the research institute that Shen Xing had given a very small number of people some highly effective cultivation resources.

But everyone who obtains it will keep it strictly confidential.

Therefore, even for Lu Daqian, this was the first time he had ever seen such a pill, and it was a fourth-grade pill right off the bat.

Such a reaction is inevitable.

Prior to this, the Human Federation's resource application disciplines were unrelated to martial arts strength; they were simply about processing materials using various equipment.

But in the face of alchemy, this will change fundamentally!

The arts of alchemy and weapon crafting will finally demonstrate their power within the Federation of Humanity!
