Jason took Gina's hand to leave, and he raised a brow when he saw Fredrica still standing there. Jason asked her what she wanted, and Fredrica glanced down at the body of Evon that was being carried by the Skyking before looking back at Jason.
"I don't suppose you would allow us to take that body for testing and analysis. She's from another world, and from what I heard, she came here in a maddened state. There's every chance she could be carrying something dangerous inside her."
"No."
Jason's answer was immediate, and Fredrica huffed in anger.
"Yeah, that's what I thought."
Jason wasn't surprised that Gaia would want to take the body, but Jason wasn't interested in whatever Gaia wanted to do. She was going to become a part of Jason's Legion, and that was the end of it. Fredrica turned to return to the shore, but she blinked in surprise when she noticed that the platform that brought her here was gone! Did Agiel actually forget that she was here? Why would she take it away like that!? Fredrica's cheeks reddened slightly in embarrassment, and she turned around while trying her best to keep a serious look on her face.
"Uhm… I don't know if you'd be willing to drop me off?"
Jason finally huffed when Fredrica said this, and he shook his head when he saw Gina smile and chuckle against his side. Fredrica narrowed her eyes in even more embarrassment, and Jason just told her that it was alright. Jason began to take the shadow disk down to the ground with a thought, and as they moved, Jason finally glanced towards the tabs that had opened in front of him earlier.

Congratulations, the user has discovered a new power source within himself.
The system recognizes this new Power Source as the 'Life force of Every Living Being' Qi.
The system will now proceed to quantify this Power Source and create a proper classification and usage method for the user.

Quantification Complete!
The system has registered the power source [Qi] into the user's database.

Qi is an energy source that has existed across the Primordial Expanse for as long as mana, but unlike mana, which is malleable and can be controlled by most races in the Primordial Expanse, Qi is a much more difficult power source to tap into. There are no proven studies or concrete facts that explain the reason behind a certain race's ability to use Qi better than any other race, but it has been noticed by researchers that Qi is more prevalent in worlds that possess diverse natural organisms and a strong unified consciousness. Earth's consciousness and will, Gaia, is what allows humans and most other creatures on Earth to possess the gift of Qi.
All Qi practitioners go through a Qi Ranking as they gather more power with their cultivation technique. Each ranking possesses three stages (I, II, III), and the rankings go from Awakened Disciple -> Awakened -> Master -> Transcendent -> Genesis -> Apotheosis.
It is believed that a cultivator in the Genesis Rank is capable of standing toe to toe with a Primordial, and there have even been rumors of Genesis Cultivators besting Primordials in combat. But the level of Apotheosis is what all cultivators truly seek. This is the pinnacle of cultivation, and it is the complete elimination of all mental, physical, and spiritual barriers. This will place the cultivator in a state of Ascendence and allow a cultivator to transcend mortality. It is believed that reaching this level will grant you strength that is equal to the great Celestials.

The user has gained the new S Rank skill [Qi Manipulation]
The user has gained the new A Rank skill [Qi Amplification]
The user has gained the new S Rank skill [Meditation]
The user has gained the new S Rank skill [Full Body Analysis]
——
[Qi Manipulation: This skill allows the user to control the movement of Qi through his body. Increasing the rank of this skill will make Qi movements sharper and smoother, and the user's Qi will respond to orders more easily.]
[Qi Amplification: This skill allows the user to expel a surge of Qi from his body and into the environment. This is a useful skill for various Qi Techniques, such as sensing the presence of hidden enemies or pushing back an enemy using an AOE technique. Increasing the rank of this skill will increase the Amplification radius, but the strength of the skill depends on the [Internal Qi Rank] of the user's Qi.]
[Meditation: The art of doing nothing. Meditation is an integral part of any cultivator's training regime because it allows them to calm their mind and body in order to gain a deeper connection with nature, and also with their subconscious. This skill is an important aspect of every Cultivation Technique in existence. Increasing the rank of this skill will allow the user to enter into the trance-like state of cultivation more easily, and it will also give them a deeper connection with nature.]
[Full Body Analysis: The mortal body serves as the most important weapon for any cultivator until they reach a level when they no longer require it. Therefore, it is important that every cultivator is capable of scanning through their body and the body of others in order to keep track of their Cultivation Progress and Meridian Health. Increasing the level of this skill will make it easier for the user's consciousness to travel across the various meridians in his body.]

The system has noticed a sudden surge in negative energy within the user's body. The system is analyzing the cause of this surge.

The system has discovered a destructive resonance occurring between the two power sources within the user's body [Mana] and [Qi]. These two power sources possess great individual potential and the presence of both sources in one body will cause more harm than good in the long run. In order to preserve the user's current magical progress as well as his future potential, the system has created an internal divide that will serve as a separation for these two power sources. The user will only be able to use one power source at any given time.

Jason read through all this very quickly as he made his way down to his sisters on the ground, and even though Jason was only half focused on the text, he still managed to grab everything that he needed, and he felt shock pass through him once he reached the part of the text that explained Qi and all its benefits! Esdeath had once told Jason that even the Primordials were afraid to take on the cultivators, and Jason thought it was just another one of Esdeath's stupid rants where he tried to make himself sound important. But from what Jason could see here, he now knew that Esdeath hadn't been joking! Qi was fucking impressive.
