Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 12 Supersonic Iron Ball

When the mass remains constant, the power of the iron ball depends on its speed.

The iron ball he fired just now was about as powerful as the pistol in his previous life. He guessed that the speed of the iron ball was about the speed of sound.

If he could accelerate the iron ball to three, four, or even ten times the speed of sound, its power would reach a terrifying level. Even a Foundation Establishment expert would be seriously injured if hit by an iron ball traveling at ten times the speed of sound.

Theoretically speaking, ignoring the bearing limit of the iron ball material, if he could accelerate a 20-gram iron ball to sub-light speed, he could blow up the entire Qionghua Continent with just one iron ball.

However, these only exist in fantasy.

Apart from anything else, the energy required was far beyond what he could provide, not to mention that he had no idea whether there was any material that could withstand such a high speed.

Putting aside these overly mysterious things, it is not impossible to simply accelerate the iron ball to ten times the speed of sound.

Accelerating the iron ball depends on only two things: the force applied to the iron ball and the time it takes to accelerate.

The strength of his magnetic field currently seems to have a limit, which means that the force it can provide to accelerate the iron ball is fixed. The only thing he can control is the acceleration time.

Just now he shot the iron ball in a straight line, and the acceleration distance was only the ten feet covered by the magnetic field.

If he did not shoot the iron ball in a straight line, but let it move in a circular motion within the magnetic field, and waited until it was accelerated to a certain level before shooting it, I wonder how terrifying it would be?

After thinking for a while, Zhou Qing felt that this method would work, so he decided to try it immediately.

He formed a circular magnetic field around himself, causing the iron ball to accelerate in the circular magnetic field.

He soon discovered that this was much more difficult than firing iron balls in a straight line.

He not only has to accelerate the iron ball, but also has to constantly use the magnetic field to constrain the iron ball, overcome its centrifugal force, and prevent it from suddenly flying out of the magnetic field.

Both spirit and energy are being consumed at a double rate.

However, the results are encouraging.

Zhou Qing watched the iron ball moving around him, just like a planet moving around a star.

The iron ball spun faster and faster, and soon exceeded the limit of the eyes.

However, Zhou Qing's magnetic field induction still firmly grasped the moving iron ball.

The iron ball exceeded the speed of sound, forming a small-scale sonic boom around Zhou Qing, and the whole yard was filled with the sound of wind and thunder.

Fortunately, he chose this remote place to live, and the seniors in the sect who were at the foundation building stage and above all lived in Qingyun Mountain, nearly ten miles away, otherwise he would have alarmed others.

The iron ball is still accelerating.

Zhou Qing had to use more magnetic field energy to restrain the iron ball and prevent it from escaping the magnetic field.

As the magnetic field used for acceleration decreases, the acceleration naturally decreases.

Soon it reached a limit, and all of Zhou Qing's magnetic field had to be used to restrain the iron ball flying at hypersonic speed, and there was no extra energy to accelerate it.

In this state, Zhou Qing's body's energy was rapidly dissipating. He felt as if there was a faucet installed on his body, and his physical strength and energy were constantly being drained.

Suddenly, he felt his body go weak and he collapsed to the ground. The magnetic field was no longer able to maintain itself.

The iron ball, having lost the restraint of the magnetic field, quickly sank into a nearby building used to store miscellaneous items.

Boom!

There was a loud noise.

Zhou Qing turned his head with difficulty and found that the house had completely collapsed.

This is a bit too scary!

Zhou Qing pulled out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, took out a pill, and put it in his mouth. This was the food that Chen Qingxuan had distributed to the immortal seedlings on the flying boat. One pill could provide the body with three days of energy.

The fasting pill melted in his mouth and turned into a stream of pure energy. Zhou Qing's feeling of weakness quickly disappeared.

He immediately ran to the collapsed house and started digging. He wanted to see how much damage the iron balls had caused.

The energy burst when the iron balls collided was very concentrated. The collapse of the buildings was only the result of the shock wave, which was a secondary damage. The real impact effect was still inside.

Zhou Qing spent more than half an hour and finally cleaned up most of the collapsed house.

On the original floor of the house, he found a hole big enough to fit a football. The surface of the hole was smooth and crystal clear, with some iron filings still remaining on it.

Zhou Qing guessed that this was the result of the high temperature generated by the high-speed impact of the iron balls, which caused the iron balls to vaporize.

This power is probably equivalent to that of a landmine!

I don’t know what level of cultivator this power can match?
Zhou Qing pondered in his heart.

Unfortunately, he knew too little about cultivators and was unable to make any reasonable guesses.

It seems that I can only make an assessment after I start practicing myself.

No matter what, the power of his attack is probably at least comparable to that of a cultivator at the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining. After all, a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining is not immune to the arrows of mortals.

Even if one is strong at the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining, it is impossible to make a big leap.

However, the flaws of this move are also obvious.

First of all, the pre-swing is too long. It takes about ten seconds to accelerate the iron ball to the previous level.

When fighting against someone, the enemy will not give you so much time to prepare a big move.

Another point is that he hasn't learned to aim yet.

In order to launch the circular motion iron ball to hit the enemy, it is necessary to accurately change its course. He cannot do this now, and it will probably take a long time of practice.

The last point is that the iron balls consume too much energy. Not only does it consume energy, but it also consumes spirit. He still feels a buzzing in his head now, and he is afraid that he will not be able to use the magnetic field within an hour.

Taking all the above advantages and disadvantages into consideration, Zhou Qing set up a suitable strategy for himself.

That is not to increase the speed of the iron ball to the limit, but to reach a level that you can just control. This speed may be only half of the limit speed, and the power is naturally much smaller.

However, this makes it easier to control the iron ball, and the acceleration time will be greatly shortened. This tactic can truly be used in a life-and-death battle.

The power of the iron ball at extreme speed is indeed amazing, but unfortunately the conditions for its application are too harsh.

After making plans, Zhou Qing was ready to find someone to customize a batch of iron balls for daily practice, but then he felt something was not right.

This supersonic iron ball attack will be one of my trump cards in the future, so it’s best not to let anyone know that it has anything to do with me.

Otherwise, if someone discovers your abnormality, there will be serious consequences.

It seems that I have no choice but to find an opportunity to get some pig iron and make some iron balls myself. Anyway, this thing does not require much technical skills, so it should not be too troublesome.

Let’s ignore the matter of Tie Wan for now. Zhou Qing looked at the ruins in the yard and couldn’t help feeling a little relieved.

Fortunately, once the yard has an owner, the restriction will automatically take effect, and no one will come in to check unless they are seniors of the sect who have reached the foundation building stage or above.

These seniors had no interest in paying attention to a newly enrolled disciple like him.

Otherwise, if someone discovered it, he would have collapsed a house on the first day he moved in, and there were strong signs of impact. It would have been strange if it hadn't attracted anyone's attention.
