Chapter 4 Thunder Swamp, Leiyang

Wang Qi stood on the deck—or rather, it would be inaccurate to say he stood, as his feet were not touching the deck at all; his entire body was suspended in mid-air. At first, he managed to remain motionless, but before long, he couldn't help but drift towards the stern of the ship.

Wang Qi shook his head slightly. It seemed that the Flying Technique couldn't truly be mastered during the Qi Cultivation Stage—even though his computational abilities had far surpassed his peers.

The principle of flying involved using mana to adjust the kinetic and potential energies within the body to achieve lift, with techniques like Wind Control and Cloud Riding acting merely as aids. The real principle lay in the manipulation of kinetic and potential energies.
