This power not only shocked Zhao Ya but also left everyone present speechless.
Jing Rou excitedly rubbed her hands together, "How about it? Impressive enough?"
Zhao Ya nodded, "Indeed impressive!"
This exclamation came from the heart.
Although this hand cannon’s craftsmanship was not as good as his own, as inferred from the massive recoil earlier.
However, in terms of sheer power, it was truly astonishing.
You have to know that the distance from here to that hillside is at least over a hundred meters, but one shot shattered that giant rock. This power, let alone ordinary people, even for a strong Meridian Opening Realm expert, might cause trouble if not careful.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya brought the hand cannon up to his face for a closer inspection and found, besides the muzzle being blackened by the immense flame.
There was no damage elsewhere.
This just proves the quality of this hand cannon is enough to withstand such powerful bullets.
If there were ten hand cannons forming a gun team, it might even alter the power structure of the lands Beyond the World.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya couldn’t help but ponder.
Meanwhile, Jing Rou on the side was enthusiastically sharing her insights and experiences from this experiment.
"Honestly, this trip to Wuyang Sea was truly rewarding, especially that mold which gave me great inspiration."
"Previously, I didn’t understand why the bullets I made lacked power when placed in Miracle Creation. Now I understand, the key lies in adapting those patterns inside."
"Give me some time, and I’ll not only make bullets for this hand cannon but for other firearms as well!"
As soon as she said this, everyone’s expression immediately changed.
Because if what Jing Rou said is true, the Thunder and Fire Department will no longer just add explosives to crossbow arrowheads or assist with Thunder Bomb.
At least to some extent, they can already change the course of a war.
If this technology could be widely popularized, even the status of Martial Artists would be significantly threatened.
No matter the era, science and technology are indeed the primary productive forces!
Zhao Ya silently lamented.
After this experiment, the Thunder and Fire Department immediately commenced intense trials.
And it wasn’t just them, even those in the Miracle Department and Celestial Craft Department joined in.
Even Liang Xin’an, who usually looked down on the Thunder and Fire Department as a bunch of explosion-crazed madmen, devoid of any aesthetics, joined the tense experiments.
After all, this discovery is a major event for the entire Mechanical Sect.
And as the entire Mechanical Sect was busy, Zhao Ya quietly left.
However, he did not rush back to Azure Dragon Temple but headed straight for the Far West Wilderness Jungle not far away.
There were things that still needed to be dealt with!
The Mechanical Sect wasn’t far from this Wilderness Jungle, and with Zhao Ya’s pace, it only took half a day to reach.
Upon entering this primeval forest, all that met the eye was an expanse of verdant green.
Here grew extremely primitive plants, mostly coniferous forests, so even though it was late autumn, it still remained lush.
Zhao Ya wasn’t in a rush, seemingly wandering through the woods casually.
Soon, he encountered several abandoned sites.
No need to ask, these were the abodes of tribes that once worshiped various Divine Spirits.
But later, Jingping Saint led a great offensive, almost sweeping away all the Divine Spirits worshipped in the Wilderness Jungle, leading to the downfall of these tribes.
Logically, even if that were the case, it wouldn’t result in a total abandonment.
But in these ruins, Zhao Ya saw signs of battle and massacre.
No need to ask, after the tribes declined, surely someone had come and harvested the remaining people one more time.
Further in, more ruins appeared, and the traces of battles became increasingly apparent.
Finally, in a mountain gully, Zhao Ya witnessed a shocking scene.
In this naturally formed gully, layers and layers of corpses formed a mountain.
Indeed.
A small hill purely made of bodies.
Most of the corpses had decomposed to just white bones by now, but some traces still revealed their tragic fate before death.
Especially the bodies of the children, even Zhao Ya, who was accustomed to slaughter, frowned deeply.
All these children’s corpses lacked skull caps, and there were clear signs of animal gnawing.
Thinking back to the evil Python God Sect Divine Statue seen in that town, the killing intent in Zhao Ya’s heart began to boil.
Afterward, Zhao Ya quickened his pace, swiftly traversing deeper into the jungle.
Although he didn’t know the exact location, since the Python God Sect managed to evade Jingping Saint’s search, they must be living in the most remote depths of the great mountains.
Based on Wu Bao’Er’s previous hints, Zhao Ya didn’t hesitate and continued moving quickly inward.
The deeper he went, the older the forest became.
The creatures living within astonished even Zhao Ya.
For example, a giant centipede over three meters long, and bugs resembling coins with thick armor.
And many unnamed flora and fauna.
Although not immediately useful, Zhao Ya made sure to note these details.
The discoveries in Wuyang Sea already revealed to Zhao Ya that there were many strange things in this world yet to be uncovered.
