As far as Li Chen knew, the wisdom of this world sprang from the fundamental concept that "all things have spirits." Spirituality was idealistic in nature, yet it followed a different set of rules from those he knew.
When he first arrived in this world, he had discovered many similarities to Earth in his previous life. Some physical laws were even identical, but magic power, along with the spirituality and primordial energy associated with it, defied explanation.
Magic power in particular arose from the combination of this world's power of law and the primordial energy within the human body, possessing the capacity for countless transformations.
Drawing on the Complete Book of the Puppet Master Order, along with this world's many legends and phenomena, he had tried to investigate its essence. In the end, however, his low cultivation realm had doomed the attempt to failure.
One thing, however, he was utterly certain of: magic power possessed both a materialistic and an idealistic nature.
It could be materialistic, like any tangible form of energy, exerting real effects and influencing physical reality.
It could also be idealistic. Its myriad transformations and manifestations shifted with the mind, allowing spoken words to become law and desires to become reality.
For example, when he had used magic power to fuse and cast conductive stone, refined gold, and other materials, he had practically needed only to assemble them in his mind and sweep his power over them for the work to complete itself.
It seemed to be nothing more than a projection of his mind and will. So long as he understood everything clearly in his head-or even if he did not, but grasped the basic principles and built a general framework-magic power would automatically fill in the rest for him!
