Chapter 176: Let her in

[No. Just no. Magic would ruin the balance of this world. There's no chance in hell that it is magic. I mean, there are artifacts that could do the invisibility schtick.]

{But wouldn't that be magic as well? I mean, it's an artifact, right? How did that power get into the artifact?}

[If it is indeed an artifact, the power would be because of the multiple cultivators that used their inner Qi to imbue it into this artifact. You get me?]

{Let's just be realistic now, shall we? What is cultivation, if not magic? What is Qi, if not mana? There are a lot of similarities, believe it or not. So, it's not like the balance is gonna tip or something if it does exist in this world.}

[It's just… Ha, somehow it sounds so unholy. Cultivation and magic are the same? That should be taboo to say. I mean, I know that it sounds similar, but magic is nowhere near as complex and beautiful as cultivation is. So, yea.]
