Originally, the quality of this steel pipe was not very good. It was used to support the awning. Later, it was forcibly removed by Zhou Yu and used as a paddle for rowing. I don¡¯t know how much it has soaked in the Ganges River water. when.
Although it is stated that the water of the Ganges River does no harm to ordinary gold and iron objects, it only has a corrosive effect on Taoist magic weapons and things containing spiritual energy and mana, but after all, the water of the Ganges River It's not tap water, so this incident still caused some damage to the steel pipe.
In addition, the environment here is extremely cold. You must know that the biggest enemy of steel is not corrosion, but extremely low temperature. In this ultra-low temperature environment, the steel is as fragile as glass and will break at the touch of it.
And now in this environment, the temperature is terrifyingly low, otherwise Zhou Yu, who is wearing this Xuanyu Taoist cloak, would not feel the cold. You must know that this Xuanyu Taoist cloak is made of black bird feathers. It is made of feathers that originally have the effect of warding off cold, but this low temperature can actually exceed the ability of the black bird's feathers to ward off cold. You can imagine how low this temperature is.
And the water of the Ganges River has been frozen into a thick ice surface that can be fought on. This temperature has definitely exceeded the low temperature that humans can live in. I believe that the so-called absolute zero in there is not far away.
And in addition to the quality of the steel pipe, the corrosion of the Ganges River water, and the damage caused by the extremely low temperature, there are two other reasons why the steel pipe has reached its own limit.
One is Zhou Yu's frequent use of the steel pipe before, first as a paddle, then as a shield against the water of the Ganges, and later as a tool for flying skeletons, and finally half of it was eaten by the skeleton. After that, it was used as a weapon to fight against skeletons. Under such frequent use, the steel pipe made of metal had reached the metal fatigue period.
You must know that the skeletons that the steel pipe dealt with before were the famous Vajra Skeletons in Buddhism. This Vajra Skeleton is one of the few Buddha's Dharma Protectors in Buddhism, and its combat power ranks among the top.
The most famous thing about these King Kong skeletons is their indestructible bones. Although the skeletons Zhou Yu is dealing with now are not considered real King Kong skeletons, these skeletons are also extraordinary, and the bones in their bodies are hard enough. Comparable to steel.
Before that, Zhou Yu used steel pipes to powerfully strike these skeletons. Although a large amount of Taoist pure Yang Gang Qi was transported on the steel pipes to protect the steel pipes and improve the steel pipes' ability to resist blows, there was still a small amount of it. The reaction force of the collision with the skeleton also acted on the steel pipe.
Although Zhou Yu destroyed this time, he didn't know how many skeletons he destroyed. The force was reflected on the skeleton. Under the cumulative effect, the solid steel rod couldn't hold on, let alone the hollow one. What about the steel pipe?
Another most important reason is that it was originally used to increase the impact power of the steel pipe, and the Taoist pure Yang Qi used to protect the steel pipe caused damage to the steel pipe itself.
Originally, under the infusion of Taoist Gang Qi, the texture of the steel pipe was improved, but this can only be done slowly. This is within the bearing capacity of the steel pipe, and the Gang Qi is used to purify the texture of the steel pipe. , it is true that the quality of this steel pipe can be improved, but it is different now.
But as the saying goes, too much is too much, just like ginseng. If it is eaten by ordinary old people, it can be used as a good tonic to replenish vitality. If this young and energetic young man eats it, he may be dizzy by the vitality of this ginseng. Nosebleeds, and if an extremely weak old man eats ginseng without this kind of conditioning, he might die on the spot.
And this Gang Qi is the same for this steel pipe. If it is cast by the essence of metal, a sword made by this master of weapon refinement, under the tempering of this Taoist pure Yang Gang Qi, the quality will only get better and better. , and will also produce this spirituality.
But this steel pipe is just an ordinary cast iron pipe. In the fierce battle before and in this extremely cold environment, this steel pipe appeared to have no problems on the surface, but in reality it was already scarred. Tired.
If it was just now, with the slow input of a small amount of Taoist pure Yang Qi, I am afraid that the steel pipe could still be maintained for a while, but this is no longer possible. Due to the change in Zhou Yu's mood, the moves in his hands were also inadvertently There has been a change over time, and with the change of this technique, the energy input into the steel pipe has naturally increased, and the steel pipe can no longer bear it.
This steel pipe is like the extremely weak old man who swallowed a large dose of ginseng to replenish vitality without any treatment. This steel pipe is of course a regular?Can't stand it anymore.
Seeing Zhou Yu casually pull the shining steel pipe in his hand on the bone shield raised by a skeleton, Zhou Yu heard a few crunching sounds. The steel pipe was originally relatively hard. One end immediately deflated and was embedded between the two bone spurs on the bone shield.
Zhou Yu felt something was wrong with the steel pipe in his hand, as if something was about to burst out from the steel pipe in his hand, which made Zhou Yu's heart tighten.
Zhou Yu sensed something was wrong and quickly let go of his hand. At this moment, Fulin was so excited that he exerted force on his legs. His feet touched the ice a little, and he slid out backwards, and then slid out more than ten times. Mi Yuan, Zhou Yu stopped this time.
At this moment, a loud bang was heard, and Zhou Yu felt a wave of air coming towards his face. In this wave of air, there were a large number of cold ice fragments, which spread rapidly to the surroundings in the form of mist, and there were several A black shadow was mixed in, and it was shooting towards Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu hurriedly dodged, and the black shadow brushed Zhou Yu's face, and the strong wind it brought made Zhou Yu feel a pain.
When Zhou Yu looked away from the explosion site, he found that the explosion site had sunk deeply, forming an ice pit. However, the ice layer was really strong, and it was blown like this. It still hasn't broken open, exposing the water under the ice. However, in addition to the ice pit, it has left deep scratches on the ice that spread out in a radial pattern and are caused by unknown things.
As for the skeletons surrounding the explosion, none within a radius of three meters was intact. All of them were missing arms and legs. There were a few skeletons that retained their rough shape except for the hardest skull. They were all broken into pieces, and they couldn't even be put back together.
