As for the power system, including Shattering the Void, I had actually written it very rigorously and in great detail. Yet questions like this still came up. Maybe some readers skimmed through the settings too quickly and missed them?
When I got up this morning, I saw a reader asking why I used joules. Wouldn't a single shell be enough to shatter the void? I had never said that. Shattering the Void involved a combination of technique and power. I had written this no fewer than five times before. The relevant chapters were 1370–1373, 1387, 1390, 1416, and 1418. Sometimes, when I explained it too much, readers who paid close attention would say I kept repeating myself. But even so, some readers still did not read the settings carefully and asked me questions like this.
Shattering the Void required gathering one's entire essence, energy, and spirit to strike the qi flow of a specific area. It meant causing the qi flow in that area to collapse completely in an instant, and it even required understanding the laws governing that qi flow. Grass had the laws of grass, rivers had the laws of rivers, and all things had their own laws. If the qi flow in that area was extremely solid, however—for example, if the Human Emperor was standing there—you would find it very difficult to destroy the qi flow of that area, because you could not destroy the Human Emperor's qi flow.
So could a shell instantly and completely destroy the qi flow of an area? No. Even a nuclear bomb might not be able to do it, because its explosive force was not concentrated, nor could it understand the laws of qi flow changes. True powerhouses in this novel, on the other hand, could control their power as they
