"Even after becoming an intermediate mage, there's no way one could cast it that quickly. According to the Complete Guide to Magic, the limit for spatial teleportation is six seconds, yet I cut even that ultimate casting time in half..."
Nalant could not help recalling the sensation from casting the spell just now, and finally understood where the issue lay. The magic power that had flowed in earlier had traveled along his qi channels.
The qi channels had originally been pathways for battle qi, while magic power needed to travel through certain tiny, unnamed veins within the body.
As a result, when magic power passed through the qi channels, it was as though it had stepped from a dirt road in the countryside straight onto an expressway. The difference in speed was like heaven and earth.
Besides that, allowing magic power to travel through the qi channels brought another unexpected benefit.
Originally, the weight and size of the items Nalant could teleport had been extremely limited.
Even after several months of practice, he could barely teleport items weighing less than five kilograms—the weight of a bag of lime powder.
Yet just now, he had casually cast the spell and immediately teleported more than ten thick, heavy books onto the table.
That had to weigh twenty or thirty jin at least!
Nalant also understood why this had happened.
