Chapter 156 - Changes in Keratin of Blade Shape!

The rolling, ascendng heat continued to churn in the air and raise the surrounding temperature dramatically!

The closer it got to the lava pool, the higher the temperature!

Yet above the lava pool, an object that was very out of place appeared!

This object, in Jia Yan’s opinion, was both unexpected and not at all surprising to see here!

Because if the so-called Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom really existed in Mount Fuji.

Then it was no surprise that this object was here!

Conversely, if the Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom wasn’t near Mount Fuji, then this object should not exist!

Thus seeing this object confirmed the records about the Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom in Li Qicheng’s notebook was true indeed!

The Divine Object did exist, and it was right near Mount Fuji!

Jia Yan convinced himself and slowly lowered his body!

Approaching the lava pool immediately raised the temperature even higher!

However, he still lowered himself until he reached the side of this object.

The object had a hard exterior and was entirely comprised of metal.

Its exterior looked quite modern!

Because the object was made entirely of an unknown metal, giving it a strange glow on its surface.

So what the hell was it?

The appearance of this object.

It was identical to the pipes at the bottom of the mysterious machinery in the underground world of Huaxia!

Discovering it here means that the range of Mount Fuji really does have something like the Mysterious Machinery!

That must be the Wa Kingdom’s Divine Object!

“The Divine Object?” Jia Yan’s luminous compound eyes shone bright as he examined the object before him.

This pipe emerged from a rock wall, made a turn in the air, and directly plunged into the red-glowing lava pool!

It seemed as if it wasn’t afraid of the high temperature at all.

“This thing is indeed quite sci-fi.

I wonder who made it….”

Jia Yan stared at the pipe then glanced at the rock wall from which the pipe protruded.

If not for this rock wall, he might be able to follow the direction of the pipe and locate the Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom to see if it was exactly the same as the mysterious machinery in the underground world of Huaxia!

But this would not be possible, he had no idea how far this pipe had traveled.

Even if Jia Yan had the digging ability of a pangolin, it would be difficult to trace the pipe all the way to the Divine Object.

Therefore, the only thing Left for Jia Yan to study was this metal pipe!

“The mysterious machinery, with countless large and small pipes going underground; seeing such a pipe here reveals that they are not just entering a little bit of the ground, who knows how deep they might go!”

Could they go all the way to the Earth’s core?

Thinking of this possibility, Jia Yan shook his head, the idea seemed a bit exaggerated.

“Since the machinery is extending the pipes, there must be a reason.

Can I perhaps assume it is some kind of functional machine, extending its pipes underground to obtain something.”

This analysis seemed quite accurate.

Jia Yan saw the exterior of the machinery when he was in the underground world.

Although the machinery didn’t seem capable of attacking humans, it was clear that it had strong defensive power.

Furthermore, in addition to not attacking humans, it didn’t move!

With so many pipes, there’s only one possibility, that is this thing exists to obtain something from underground.

“And this pipe even penetrates into the lava pool, that means, whatever they want to get is very, very deep.” Jia Yan analysed.

Then, the mysterious glow in Jia Yan’s eyes became even brighter.

“Finding the whereabouts of the Divine Object along the pipe won’t be easy, so I’ll just attack this pipe directly!”

Jia Yan thought correctly, since he saw the Divine Object’s pipe here, there was no reason not to investigate it further.

Even if he found nothing, it wouldn’t matter.

After leaving the cave, he could continue looking for signs of the divine object!

At least it proved that the Divine Object does exist.

“Right, I’ll try with my forefoot first.” Jia Yan continued to fly in mid-air, in front of him was a section of the Divine Object’s pipe exposed to the air.

This pipe had a length of over three meters exposed and a diameter of seventy to eighty centimeters.

Jia Yan extended his knife-shaped chitinous forefoot and lightly brushed against the outer layer of the pipe.

Squeaky…

The sharp tip of the knife-shaped chitin gently cut the front part of the pipe, causing a piercing noise. seaʀᴄh thё Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Not a single mark.” Seeing the tip of his knife-shaped chitin, Jia Yan immediately became solemn.

After several battles, Jia Yan had great faith in his knife-shaped chitinous forefoot!

Perhaps because it had fused with certain metal substances, the sharpness of this knife-shaped chitin was extraordinary!

For example, he broke through the exterior armor of a fighter plane and even pierced through a small armored vehicle from the Wa Kingdom!

These were the reasons why Jia Yan was confident in his knife-shaped chitin!

But now, this exoskeleton couldn’t even leave a mark on the pipe!

Although this also had to do with Jia Yan not using his full strength, even a random jab from his knife-shaped chitin was extremely horrifying, but this pipe had no sign of any marks?!

“No wonder it’s the metal that can directly penetrate into the lava….”

Jia Yan withdrew his knife-shaped chitin, and the mysterious light in his compound eyes grew even more intense!

He lifted his foreleg aggressively, his chitin taking on a blurry figure.

He then struck downward!

Clang!!

The sound echoed throughout the space, piercingly loud.

Jia Yan put all his strength into this attack.

A strike of this magnitude could easily pierce a human body, even severing bones!

“Hmm?”

Upon the impact of the right forefoot hitting the pipeline, Jia Yan felt an extreme backlash emanating from the metal pipe!

Jia Yan’s suspended form was abruptly thrust backward.

It rebounded!

“Such a firm metal!” Jia Yan was immensely astonished!

“What exactly is this metal made of?

It doesn’t appear to be the same as the material of that mysterious machinery.

But its hardness is still so high!”

Contrasting the substance of the mysterious machinery’s main body, Jia Yan knew that this pipeline’s metal was certainly inferior!

Because when observing the mysterious machinery, one could clearly perceive the distinct technological aura, but this metal pipe, if Jia Yan hadn’t guessed that it was a pipeline separated from the so-called divine object, it could have been mistaken for an ordinary pipe from a human factory.

But this kind of pipe was incredibly hard!

“I don’t believe it!” The luminous glaze in Jia Yan’s compound eyes flickered more intensely!

His body downwards completely, he first tried the temperature of the pipe with one forefoot.

Despite being wholly immersed in the magma pool, the pipe hadn’t entirely absorbed the heat of the magma onto itself.

Jia Yan could easily place his long legs on it!

It probably only about seventy to almost eighty degrees.

Such a temperature would certainly scald a human’s skin, but Jia Yan had a thick layer of coagulate shielding his exoskeletal surface, and his exoskeleton itself was not afraid of high temperatures, this trivial temperature couldn’t even scald the coagulate, let alone harm the integral components of Jia Yan!

So Jia Yan’s form landed directly on the pipe, then gripped the surface of the pipe firmly with all five long legs!

The remaining right front foot was raised again!

This time, with all five long legs gripping the metal pipe firmly and a firm place to leverage against, the striking force of his forefoot was incomparably stronger than when he was flying in the sky!

The long legs went down!

Clang!!!

The sounds of vibrations rang out.

Jia Yan’s forceful strike was not a simple matter.

When it hit the pipeline, the sound it produced was like an old bell ringing, echoing through the sky!

However, that was all there was to it!

Jia Yan’s right front foot was trembling slightly from the recoil!

But what he couldn’t believe was that his attack, which could effortlessly shatter the Wa Kingdom’s Light Armor vehicle previously, seemed to have no effect on this pipeline!

It hadn’t even left a single trace of damage!

“What?!”

The glow of astonishment flickered in Jia Yan’s compound eyes, this time he was genuinely startled, as he had become familiar with the feeling of increasing strength over time.

Everything in the past proved that he was no longer a powerless mosquito, but a terrifying giant mosquito that had overcome adversities!

The humans who rules this earth, had all cast their attention on him, creating worldwide sensation!

But he never thought that he would encounter a Waterloo at this place!

He was blocked by an inconspicuous metal pipe!

“If the entire pipe is this hard, it would be a terrifying spectacle!”

Jia Yan took a careful look and found that his attack had left a faint indentation on the pipe.

However, the dent was so minimal that he wouldn’t even notice it unless he looked closely!

“Since there are traces of damage, it should be possible to break through!”

Jia Yan was initially startled by the hardness of the pipeline, but then saw the slight dent on the metal surface, his compound eyes immediately lit up!

His fear was that he wouldn’t be able to damage the metal at all.

But since he could puncture a small mark, then it was possible to completely pierce through!

Jia Yan continued to raise his forefoot, aimed at the indentation area, and began to attack continuously!

Clang!

Clang clang!!

Clang clang clang!!!

Over and over, tirelessly.

His blade-like exoskeleton hit the metal!

Repeatedly striking a hard object like this caused considerable damage to the sharp end of his blade-shaped exoskeleton!

After about ten strikes, Jia Yan realized that each subsequent attack had less impact on the metal pipe, after the final strike, it didn’t even leave a white point!

“Oh no!

The blade-like exoskeleton has become blunt!”

Having noticed this, Jia Yan was concerned and stopped his attack.

He stood in place, examining his blade-shaped exoskeleton.

He waited for a moment.

“Huh…” Jia Yan was somewhat surprised to see a slight change in his blade-like exoskeleton!

Hard tissues, like coagulates, began to grow slowly from the sharp end of his blade-like exoskeleton!

This visible metamorphosis was astonishing.

After a while.

The blade-like exoskeleton had returned to its original form!

Jia Yan was even more shocked to discover that in his regenerated blade-like exoskeleton, apart from a large portion being made of the same material as the original exoskeleton, there was inexplicably…

A hint of brilliant blue glow!

This was not a fleeting, brilliant blue exoskeleton!

But a constantly present brilliant blue color.

Jia Yan’s compound eyes became brighter!
