[moon's embrace]: harness the power of lunar cycles for enhanced magical abilities and transformation.]"

"This is the power you unlocked through experimentation, but some of these powers were forcefully locked by me to prevent any unintended consequences. Your original level may not have been sufficient to control them properly," Little zhizhi explained sadly. It worried about its master's well-being and wanted her to grow stronger cautiously.

"It's alright. If I became too strong too quickly, I might have attracted more trouble in the first year of the apocalypse than I could handle," Lu Zhi replied with a calm demeanor. She understood the importance of balancing her strength and responsibilities.

"Indeed, you are right, master!"

Lu Zhi absorbed the information, her mind processing the vast potential of her newfound powers. With each unlocking, her strength grew, and she was one step closer to fulfilling her goals in the treacherous world of the apocalypse.

"Little zhizhi, what does this [moon's embrace] ability mean? Can I absorb the power of the moon?" Lu Zhi inquired earnestly. The power of [SPACE MANIPULATION] was still unfamiliar to her.

Little zhizhi explained, "[moon's embrace] is an ancient power that draws its strength from the cycles of the moon. In various cultures and mythologies, the moon is associated with mystical forces and believed to have a profound influence on magic, emotions, and transformation. This power allows its wielder to tap into the energies of the lunar phases, granting enhanced magical abilities and facilitating transformative experiences. It particularly seeks the Enternal Eclipse, which occurs for one week in a month during the apocalypse."

Lu Zhi nodded in understanding. A Eclipse was a rare celestial event where the moon temporarily align with the sun, resulting in a en extraordinary surge of celestial energy. During solar eclipse, the moon comes between the earth and sun, obscuring the sunlight. And when the [moon's embrace] power reached its peak, allowing the user to draw upon heightened energy surges, magnifying their abilities beyond what they could achieve during a regular full moon. Under a the eclipse, the wielder could undergo a profound metamorphosis, potentially accessing an even more formidable and celestial form, reaching the pinnacle of their power.

"[But as cosmic forces are known to be unpredictable and potentially dangerous, the master needs to be careful when using this ability.]" Little Zhizhi advice.

"Yes. I don't want to die before I found those people zhizhi." Lu Zhi smile to comfort her.

"[That's good but master the reason why those zombies become even more powerful may after the Eternal Eclipse baptismal. The concentration of the moon's magical energy during that time is intense,]" Lu Zhi remarked. "Not to mention the malevolent red rain that mutates ordinary things."

She recalled the third year of the apocalypse, where the levels of the zombies were unimaginable. Even experimental subjects turned into test subjects for zombielization. Food had become scarce within the first year, and even she, who had scammed many people, found herself hungry at times. The harsh reality of survival in the end of times weighed heavily on her.

In the depths of her heart, Lu Zhi felt an unyielding determination to protect her family, aid her newfound companion little zhizhi, and confront the sinister forces that lurked in the shadows. The journey ahead was fraught with challenges, but with her [ANCIENT INSIGHT] and [SPACE MANIPULATION], she was prepared to embrace her destiny and carve her path amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the end of times.
