Xiao Heiven: New Genesis
Ch. 22 — I Use Qi.

Since the beginning of the appearance of witches on Earth centuries ago, there has never been this strange event, indeed, where a human being is able to use magic power but a human being is not a witch.

The ability of the ancient lake in detecting the level of strength of a witch is also unquestionable and has never once made a mistake since centuries ago. Because, the water of this ancient lake is very sensitive to which is the source of energy of the witches.

Moreover, this ancient lake was the source of all the ancient lakes present throughout the military camp. If the ancient lake in this place is damaged, then all the ancient lakes that exist in the entire palace area will definitely show signs of strangeness because all these ancient lakes are interconnected with each other.

However, Lin Yao was also unable to ask something like this without a second thought for fear of offending Heiven.

After thinking carefully about the impact of all the risks he would accept, Lin Yao finally decided to ask. It was possible that after asking the Heiven, he would find out another secret possessed by a magician.

Lin Yao walked with a step slowly approaching towards the ancient lake and stopped right behind Heiven.

“Do you never use mana every time you use magic power?” Lin Yao asked with a friendly smile so that Heiven did not feel that he was being suspected.

Heiven actually knew about mana since Goddess Nuwa gave her the inheritance of the powers of various magic spells. Because, Goddess Nuwa also gave him insight into the world of magic and all kinds of terms in it.

However, Heiven was indeed unable to produce any mana in his body because Goddess Nuwa had deliberately made Heiven into a cultivator. So, the only source of strength he had used all this time was Qi.

“I never use mana. The source of energy I use to create a magic formation or activate a magic spell is called Qi.”

Heiven felt it was time he opened the little secret he had on Lin Yao. Because, Lin Yao had also given quite a special treatment during his stay in this Green Peacock Kingdom.

For example, invite him to visit secret places that are in the palace area, even though such a place should only be visited by members of the royal family.

“Qi?!” Lin Yao looked a little confused. “What is Qi? I just first heard such a term.”

“Qi is a more stable and lightweight form of energy than mana. However, not everyone can cultivate Qi. Because, that person must strengthen his Dantian first before starting to process Qi,” explained Heiven.

Lin Yao was increasingly confused as Heiven uttered his dantian. First Qi then Dantian, these two terms are completely foreign in the ear. Because, all this time a witch does not have these two things.

In using a magic spell, a magician will usually directly change the energy around it into mana through the intermediary of both hands or a magic wand.

The witches never kept any mana in their body parts for very long. Because, where has enough pressure and weight to burden the body.

Lin Yao had thought that if he could also cultivate Qi then he could definitely save a lot more time in making a magic formation as well as activate a magic spell because in his body there was already a reserve The Qi. He did not need to waste a few minutes to change the energy to mana.

“Last question. Where did you learn how to cultivate Qi? Honestly, I've been a little suspicious about the magic power you have. Because, some of the magic spells that you have are forbidden magic spells taught directly by Goddess Nuwa to the ancestors of the Green Peacock Kingdom.”

However, Heiven instead became increasingly wary of Lin Yao. “Can I refuse to answer this question?”

“What is your reason for refusing to answer this question? Isn't my question not something that is difficult to answer?” look at Lin Yao coldly.

“Of course I have a good reason to answer this question. And, this reason is related to my security.”

Heiven still clearly remembered the image he saw in the time mirror. He intends to hide anything about the origin of the magic power he has before he finds any intruders in this Kingdom.

“Huff..” Lin Yao could only let out a long sigh after hearing Heiven's reasoning. For it is impossible to force his helper to fall into danger. “Then let's just say I never asked.”

“It looks like it's better. If the time has come, I will definitely reveal all the secrets I have to you.”

“I hold on to those words. Just be careful if you dare to lie.

Heiven then walked away from the ancient lake accompanied by Lin Yao because this ancient lake did not provide any benefits to him at all.

The two of them finally jumped into the dimensional gate and left this small world.

The only result they got during their time inside this small world was the information that Heiven was able to use all the magic that existed in this world without being bound by the restrictions of magic elements because his body matched with all kinds of magic elements present in this world.

**

Outside the Gate of the small world.

A man of about forty years of age with a mighty stature and wearing clothes like a King, it had stood on the edge of the abyss where the gate leading to the small world was located.

The man stared at the gate calmly. However, the overflowing aura radiance from his body indicated that he was in an unstable mind. I don't know what this guy was thinking.

Until finally, he narrowed his eyes when he saw the changes in energy fluctuations that were within the dimensional gate.

“At last they came out of this place too. I will teach a lesson to the young man who dares to tease my daughter!”

The man immediately took out a magic wand made of gold and set up a large magic formation under his feet.

He seemed to be waiting for Heiven and Lin Yao to come out of the small world.
