3. Types of energy
Listed here are the types of energy used within the novel.
Martial Energy — Energy that is used during execution of martial arts techniques. There are different kinds (ranging from Sword Energy, Sabre Energy, Suicide Techniques, etc.), but they are all generally categorised as Martial Energy. Martial Energy flows through a person’s Meridian Channels within that person’s body.
Medicinal Energy — Energy that is bestowed by Spiritual Medicines. Usually used in the healing of injuries. Medicinal Energy also flows through a person’s Meridian Channels within that person’s body.
Soul Energy — The spirit and soul are two different things in the novel. To make it easy to understand, the soul is a collection of energy that is part of a person’s spirit. If a person’s soul is completely consumed by another soul, then it will be equivalent to the former having his spirit consumed. Typically, the amount of soul energy is relative to a person’s mental strength.
Luck Energy — Mysterious energy that affects a person in various ways. It exists in the novel, and the amount of Luck Energy a person has is usually determined innately (in simple terms, destiny and fate).
