Chapter 386: Chapter 385 Illusion Projection

Support Type Awakeners in terms of attack methods are indeed slightly lacking compared to those with Attack Type Talents, but fortunately, it’s not a big issue. The deficiency can be fully compensated by skills, as Ashen World produces a large variety of attack skills.

Overall, although Awakeners with powerful Attack Type Talents indeed accumulate levels and rank advantages more easily in the early stages, by the mid to late stages, the situation between the two becomes much more comparable.

After all, Attribute values speak for themselves. Even those with a Support Type Talent can rely on strong physical qualities and various types of skills to forcefully manage, just like Zhang Yanhang, who is absolutely a classic example from any perspective.

However, although Zhang Yanhang is indeed a classic case, it isn’t universally applicable. After all, his strength largely comes from having Multiple Choice, and the Professional skills brought by the Heavenly Destiny Dominator profession have also played a significant role, or rather, they could be said to have played a decisive role.

Especially the Technique Immunity skill obtained during the First Tier Period, this skill genuinely achieved a ’Technique Immunity’ effect.

It allowed Zhang Yanhang to disregard any concerns about defense when facing monsters, allowing him to focus solely on attacking, significantly enhancing his efficiency and safety in hunting monsters in Ashen World.

Numerous similar examples exist. It can be said that, apart from Alchemy, the logistics skill, the other skills Zhang Yanhang possesses have collectively ensured his hunting efficiency in various fields.

Therefore, if you were to ask Zhang Yanhang if he wants to give up the Multiple Choice and exchange it for an Attack Type Talent with great developmental potential,

he would definitely choose to refuse, for how can fate system Talent be compared to the common Attack Type Talent?

Moreover, a more crucial point is that Zhang Yanhang currently does not lack powerful attacks, so he isn’t particularly desiring an Attack Type Talent.

After all, even if he did possess an Attack Type Talent, could it really achieve an effect like the Death Wave that instantly annihilates all enemies within a 500-meter radius?

Obviously not, and even if it really could, it would probably consume a large amount of Energy Value, far less comfortable than skills like the Death Wave Skill that expend Physical Strength.

Moreover, even if this Attack Type Talent could actually achieve a 500-meter attack radius, achieving a kilometer-level attack range like the Thermo-baric Bomb would truly be impossible.

Thus, for Zhang Yanhang, who does not lack attack methods, the allure of the Attack Type Talent isn’t too strong, as Talent can only be driven by consuming Energy Value, an inherent drawback. If it could be driven by Physical Strength like skills, then he might be slightly tempted.

After listening to Zhou Muxi’s self-introduction, Zhang Yanhang briefly summarized that her Talent Ability, ’Chaotic Eye,’ is indeed very powerful, capable of releasing Chaotic Power with strong energy absorption from her eyes during the First Tier Period.

This Chaotic Power not only surrounds the body to absorb enemy energy attacks but can also be actively released to absorb energy from within the enemy’s body.

However, this portion of Energy Value absorbed by the Chaotic Power cannot be used to recover Zhou Muxi’s own energy but is entirely transported to the miniature world in the ’Chaotic Eye,’ nurturing it.

Thus, although Zhou Muxi’s Talent is called ’Chaotic Eye,’ and the Chaotic Power from the First Tier Period does indeed have considerable allure, the real power lies in the miniature world within her eyes, with the Chaotic Power being just a derivative.

Initially, during the First Tier Period when the world was in chaos, Zhou Muxi could only release Chaotic Power.

But later, as her rank progressed, the miniature world in her eyes underwent a cosmic evolution, successively generating Muddied Qi and Clear Qi during the Second and Third Tiers.

Just like the mythological story of Pangu creating the world, Muddied Qi descended while Clear Qi ascended, forming the Desolate Continent and corresponding clear sky that Zhang Yanhang had seen earlier.

Thus, aside from the First Tier’s Chaotic Power, Zhou Muxi successively awakened a new ability in the Second and Third Tiers - the control over Muddied Qi and Clear Qi.

Incidentally, although Muddied Qi and Clear Qi sound lofty, they are essentially just Yin Qi and Yang Qi. So, during the Second Tier, the emergence of a continent due to the descent of Muddied Qi (Yin Qi) resulted in Zhou Muxi acquiring an ability called ’Illusion Projection.’

She could project the illusion of that barren continent around her body to form a strong Physical Attack defense barrier, coupled with the Chaotic Power specifically defending against energy attacks, making it quite versatile.

Moreover, this ’Illusion Projection,’ like ’Chaotic Power,’ can not only protect oneself but also be used as a physical attack to strike enemies.

Of course, it wouldn’t be smashing an entire continent at once; rather, only a miniature continent illusion would be thrown, which could be magnified depending on the amount of Energy Value invested.

But Zhang Yanhang estimated that even with the Energy Value limit of a Third Tier Awakened, even if exerting all his strength, he could only manifest a small mountain like those in Shuiqing Gully East Mountain at most, certainly not forming a powerful illusion like Lao Mountain.

Moreover, even a small mountain head the size of Shuiqing Gully East Mountain would probably only withstand a single or a few full-strength attacks; after all, it definitely could not be smashed indefinitely and without consumption.

From this perspective, Zhang Yanhang thought that usually, Zhou Muxi would likely only conjure illusions of a few meters or so in diameter as her regular attack method.

Thus, while the Illusion Projection ability is indeed strong on the attack front, overall, it is not that powerful, as the Energy Value limit not only constrains Zhang Yanhang but all Awakeners, acting as an invisible chain tightly around the necks of all Awakeners.
