Chapter 420: Chapter 421 Phantom Reality: Consciousness Dissipation!

If his unique ability was induced by gaming factors, then logically, he should also be able to display the ability within the game.

After commanding the 70 Battle Demon Princesses to hold their positions, Chu You left them be. Although the enemy was at a Four-star Elite grade and within the 40-45 level range, Chu You was confident - they were no match for his 70 Battle Demon Princesses.

Based on his understanding of the ’Guide Technique’ from the real world- the sense of harnessing and releasing special abilities - Chu You furrowed his brow in concentration.

The reason for this sudden approach was because during his previous gaming experiences, Chu You had noticed signs of his ability manifesting in the game. For instance, he could often sense a boss coming up from behind him even before Emperor Ji alerted him. Meanwhile, during his fights with the Beast Commander, Chu You was able to discern and hence evade several attacks displayed through the Instant Blink Tactic beforehand.

Why he had developed this intuitive protective feeling remained unclear to Chu You, due to a variety of interfering factors. As for now...

When he noticed the surrounding Battle Demon Princesses taking the initiative to protect him, his sight was obscured by their sheer numbers. This brief disruption sparked an idea in Chu You’s mind, prompting him to try something new.

Subsequently, he was drawn to the mysterious and formidable new power.

Under the partially cloudy sky, the 70 Battle Demon Princesses assembled around Chu You and formed a ’sphere’. This was a type of concentrated defensive formation, securing their master with no room for opponent trespassing. At the same time, Emperor Ji launched an attack.

The fight immediately broke out!

devil class normal attacks were scattered from this ’Spherical Defense Network’, towards the Elite Falcon Riders cruising in flying state. Subsequently, a ’Curse of Weakness’ was unleashed by 20 Battle Demon Princesses. The grey mist dispersed with it, cursed any Elite Falcon Riders who dared enter the fray.

Emperor Ji’s attacks were diverse and versatile. When a certain Elite Falcon Rider drew his bow for a long-range attack, Emperor Ji responded with a Death Ray (Burst). The opponent inflicted was dealt with a 16,000 damage hit, following which he received an additional 16,000 damage every two seconds. After accumulating 5 hits, a massive burst damage of 64,000 was dealt. Riders with just 300,000 Hit Points would lose half of that in just 10 seconds under Emperor Ji’s assault.

Although the target was in motion, the hit reduced its speed significantly. Emperor Ji continued to unleash her sustained damage attacks as the ray followed the moving target, maintaining the lock. After approximately 30 seconds, the Four-star Elite fell, dropping a Black Diamond Grade gear piece. Seeing this, Emperor Ji immediately sped over to seize the loot. Emperor Ji also had a pet backpack, albeit a small one.

Chu You closed his eyes with a relaxed expression on his face, his eyebrows spreading apart tranquilly.

As he finally felt the strange sensation within, he could perceive everything around him with unprecedented clarity in this state.

He expanded his senses even further, extending his consciousness to detect enemy targets further outside his range. In this manner, he could monitor any enemy entering his zone of consciousness in real time.

In an instant, Chu You gathered information on over 20 enemies. The ability to foresee every move an enemy might make - whether an offensive or defensive maneuver, or the trajectory of their movement, was a truly fascinating experience.

Picking up on his unique sense, Chu You set his mind on a Falcon Elite Mage Rider in motion. This ’mental lock’ process was extraordinary, for no target sight was activated on his gaming interface. If an onlooker was to maintain an eye on Chu You, he wouldn’t observe any active target on Chu You. But in reality, Chu You had mentally locked onto an enemy. He labeled this process ’mental locking’.

Upon mental locking the target, he concentrated and instantly, a wave of numb, feeble pulse washed over him - he had engaged his telekinetic attack.

This Falcon Elite Mage Rider suddenly lost control of its trajectory, both its face and the bird beneath it bearing a painful expression. Strangely, no changes in the HP status were noticed.

Frowning slightly, Chu You took an oxygen-rich breath and ceaselessly launched mental attacks on the Elite beast he had locked on to. At the instant his forehead began to sweat.

As screams of pain were heard from the Falcon Elite Mage Rider and the bird, their full HP of 270,000 suddenly dropped to a void, causing instant death! No blood was spilled and no external injury was noticed apart from clear signs of agony on their faces. The lifeless bodies plunged from above and hit the ground.

Chu You drew a few deep breaths, looking slightly pale.

And he did it. Pupils dilating in surprise, Chu You contemplated his success.

He could not visually confirm the enemy’s death, but was aware of its demise. Experience points had been awarded to him.

At the same moment when he was still immersed in shock, the system started making hurried, consecutive ringing sounds to alert him to something important.

System: Congratulations! You’ve successfully created a new skill!

System: This skill is currently under analysis...

System: The skill cannot be measured in specific values or estimated...

System: The damage rating of this skill to the player’s base body: S7+ level! It has reached a highly forbidden degree!

System: The skill level rating: Above the ninth-order skills!

System: The skill is currently attributed to: Forbidden Skill Sequence!

System: Analyzing whether you are suitable for the game "Celestial World"....

System: The result of the analysis: You are suitable for the game "Celestial World", please continue to play!

System: Please name the new skill!

When the last system prompt appeared, Chu You saw a text entry field appear right in the middle of his field of vision.

Listening to the sounds of battle in his ears, Chu You closed his eyes and, without thinking about anything else, raspily said, "Phantom Reality"!

System: The new skill ’Phantom Reality’ has successfully been named! The skill icon will be automatically drawn and will appear in your personal skill tree.

Upon opening his personal skill tree, Chu You saw that the newly emerged skill icon was actually a human figure, the side face of a human, very similar to him. Unlike the other skill icons in bright and flowery colors, this new skill icon was only in one color: grey. It looked just like an unusable skill.

With a feeling of trepidation and expectation, Chu You looked at the skill details.

Phantom Reality: Forbidden Skill: It is guided by the will of the host, and is controlled based on the purpose of the host, regulating the actions of the host. This skill can directly affect one or more physical systems and is capable of influencing the behavior of objective things through special consciousness, possessing powerful subjective activity.

Skill Damage: Chaos State: Unable to estimate specific damage value, depending on the output level of the host, it will affect the target’s will and mobility, and the very worst consequence will be causing consciousness dissipation in both players and NPCs! Note: The gradual application of this skill will cause great pain to the target!

Skill Effect: Chaos State: Analysis determined, this skill has powerful hallucinogenic special effects!

Skill Enhancement: Chaos State: Analysis has determined that this skill has objective physical effects of healing and purification!

Consciousness Dissipation means: When the host’s target subjective willpower reaches a certain critical point, it can cause the target’s fatal symptoms. Note: If the target of this symptom is a player, it can cause fatal damage to the opponent’s brain, and the player’s body will truly die! (Note: When a player is affected by this skill, the game device’s protective mechanism will be activated, forcing the player who is attacked by ’Phantom Reality’ to go offline! But there is no guarantee that the player will have any degree of sequelae! Nor does it guarantee the activation or eradication of the pathogen in the player’s body!)

Skill Features: This skill is at a growth stage, each growth system will be evaluated! And it will update the skill details at any time! The ’Celestial World’ skill points or related items cannot affect the Phantom Reality skill, making special items unable to upgrade this skill.

Skill Features: If the host uses this skill and consumes too much energy, severe physical reactions will occur, the game experience will lose its ’balance’, the game device’s ’Sleep Mode’ will be unable to continue, and the host will go offline automatically and fall into a real sleep state.

Skill Characteristics: This skill is both a single-target and a group-target skill, and it possesses the potential for a ’Heavenly Tree of Self-Ascending System’!

Skill Potential: Chaos State (or infinite!)

This skill has no cooldown time, the energy consumption cannot be expressed in specific numbers, the magic power cannot apply to this skill. This skill can be applied instantaneously and has no requirements for profession, level, or gender.

Conclusion: ’Phantom Reality’ is a manifestation and projection of a special ability that exists in the real-world body of the player’s brain in ’Celestial World’. There is a high probability (the probability is 100%) that this special ability will affect the real-world body as the player cultivates it in the ’Celestial World’. The impact on the real world is currently undetermined.

Conclusion: ’Phantom Reality’ is a powerful illusion which is real and practical and can deal fatal damage to the player’s body. The system, under its rules, cannot weaken this skill in any effective manner. This skill is unsolvable!
