This also has one greatest benefit: Level 1 Crystal Cores are much more common compared to Level 2 Crystal Cores!
Wang Tao now only has one Level 2 Shockwave Crystal Core, and gathering 30 Level 2 Shockwave and 30 Level 2 Precision Shooting Crystal Cores would be extremely difficult—not due to lack of strength, but because he doesn't encounter Level 2 Terrorizers and Level 2 Police Zombies.
But if it's 100 Level 1 Shockwave Crystal Cores, 100 Level 1 Precision Shooting Crystal Cores, and 20 Level 2 Ascension, then it becomes relatively easier. There are still plenty of Level 1 Elite Zombies. Wang Tao also has quite a few Level 1 Omnipotent Crystal Cores, which can all be put to use.
Plus, these two methods can be carried out simultaneously!
If he has enough Level 2 Crystal Cores, then he can synthesize into a Level 2 Epic Crystal Core.
If he has enough Level 1 Crystal Cores, then he can use Ascension Crystal Cores to upgrade them to Level 2!
