Reincarnated as a second generation villain

Chapter 225: Mana

Zhou Yuan looked at the Wand in his hand with a look of interest. Let alone that ring, he wondered if he could use magic.

In Huaxia, things like conjuring fireballs and other extraordinary things were called supernatural powers, but in this item, the system mentioned magic.

He did know about the mana from the novels he read in his previous life. But in this world, he had never heard of mana in the cultivation system.

'Is there a difference between mana and aura?' Zhou Yuan asked the system.

[If people in Huaxia use the aura as a source of strength, there are people in faraway lands who use mana as a source of strength]

[Technically, mana is reserved for magic only, but aura has a more complex effectiveness and function. But it also depends on the user]

Zhou Yuan understood the system explanation.

'So is it possible to learn mana?' Zhou Yuan asked again.

[Depends on talent. Usually, one's origin determined their strength. You are a real Huaxia person where aura is already your identity]

[But it's not impossible if you can use mana. If there's a will, there's a way]

"Yes, if there is system, there must be a way." Zhou Yuan nodded.

"Did you say something?" Zhou Tian suddenly asked when he heard Zhou Yuan's words.

"Oh no, I'm just mildly impressed by these items." Zhou Yuan lightly said as he showed the ring and the wand.

Seeing these items, Zhou Tian was slightly interested and walked over to take a closer look.

He took the wand from Zhou Yuan's hand and looked at it carefully.

"Weird, I sense an anomaly in this thing." Zhou Tian frowned and said.

"What's that?" Zhou Yuan asked curiously.

Zhou Tian did not answer and instead held the wand tightly.

He not only held the wand but also injected his aura into it.

It could be seen that the wand was showing runes on its golden surface.

Crack!

Cracks started to appear on the surface of the wand.

Crack!

The wand shattered and blue energy spread in the air.

The energy was as thick as a dark cloud.

Zhou Yuan and Zhou Tian looked up at the sky with different expressions.

Zhou Yuan was surprised, but Zhou Tian frowned.

"Strange energy, it's not an aura or anything familiar. It's like, something completely different." ZhouTian said earnestly.

[Mana origin detected, do you want to absorb it?]

The system's words surprised Zhou Yuan.

'Sure!' He immediately said.

After that, the blue energy gathered together to form a swirling ball.

"What happened?" Zhou Tian said warily.

He tries to analyze and find out what happened and began to approach the energy ball and was about to touch it.

But as soon as his finger was about to reach that energy ball, the energy ball instantly disappeared.

"What the hell?" Zhou Tian frowned.

He intended to absorb the energy, but it suddenly disappeared.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yuan looked at his hands with a look of satisfaction.

Right now he was enveloped by blue energy, only, it was twinkling like stars in the sky.

[Congratulations, you got talent: mana absorber]

[You can convert aura into mana]

Zhou Yuan smiled in satisfaction when he heard this. He had just been wondering if it was possible to use mana, and now he could use it.

Thanks to his father.

Meanwhile, Zhou Tian turned to look at Zhou Yuan when he sensed something.

He saw Zhou Yuan being enveloped by a twinkling blue aura.

"Yuan'er, what happened to you? And that energy.... Don't tell me..."

Zhou Tian was so surprised that he couldn't say anything more.

"That's right, father. The energy entered my body." Zhou Yuan said with satisfaction.

"What? How did that happen?" Zhou Tian was surprised and asked curiously.

"This son of yours is very talented. If you look at it, it is like an ice mountain in the sea. It looks a little on the outside, but is huge on the inside." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

How could he say that the system was absorbing that energy? So, he could only lie.

Hearing this, Zhou Tian actually smiled.

"That's right, of course. There's no way my son is just an ordinary talent. Hahaha, I'm proud of you, son." Zhou Tian laughed and patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder.

Zhou Yuan just smiled faintly.

............

"So, what did you get after absorbing that energy?" Zhou Tian asked curiously.

"I feel, great, I think?" Zhou Yuan said doubtfully.

To be honest, he didn't feel a significant change. He only felt that there was something strange flowing in his dantian.

He didn't know how to use mana either. It was like cultivating for the first time, not knowing what to do next.

"You may need adaptation, I understand." Zhou Tian nodded and patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder.

"Well, I think I need some adaptation." Zhou Yuan nodded.

............

Zhou Yuan and Zhou Tian explored this world together.

The two of them encountered many monsters and beasts along the way.

Zhou Yuan had encountered monsters so many times that he was not surprised by what kind of monsters appeared.

"That waterfall, I feel something, let's go there." Zhou Tian said as he pointed at a waterfall not far from him.

Zhou Yuan also looked at the waterfall, but he didn't feel anything strange.

But if his father said that, it might contain something.

"Okay, let's go there." Zhou Yuan nodded.

After that, they went straight to the waterfall.

Zhou Yuan went first, he flew into the waterfall.

And sure enough, there is a cave behind the waterfall.

"Secret cave, huh? There must be treasure here." Zhou Yuan smirked.

"Let's explore this cave." Zhou Tian said.

............

Zhou Yuan and Zhou Tian entered the cave deeper. There weren't any threats along the way.

And at this moment, they stopped when they saw a dead end ahead.

But Zhou Yuan and Zhou Tian both realized something in that dead end.

"You look calm, feel something?" Zhou Tian smiled and asked lightly.

"Let me try." Zhou Yuan said.

He clenched his fist and slammed it into the cave wall.

Bang!

His fist directly smashed through the cave wall and made a path.

A golden glow was seen from a distance as soon as the cave wall was destroyed.

The two of them went straight inside and saw a pile of gold. The amount of gold was very large, even filling the cave area.

Zhou Tian walked forward and took one of the gold.

"Pure gold, huh? Not bad, let's take them." Zhou Tian said with satisfaction.

"Does not matter." Zhou Yuan smiled and took out his storage ring.

It was a storage ring he got from the corpses of people from another world back in the cave with Xie Zhenjie.

He pointed the ring at the pile of gold and the gold was absorbed into the ring.

Zhou Tian was surprised when he saw this.

"Storage ring? You have it?" He asked curiously.

"I do have it." Zhou Yuan nodded and smiled.

Hearing this, Zhou Tian fell silent. He knew this must be Zhou Yuan's secret again, but still, his son had too many secrets.

"Can you tell me where you got the ring? Just this, I won't ask anything else." Zhou Tian asked earnestly.

He couldn't relax when his son was holding a storage ring.

He also had a storage ring, but it was the Zhou family's hereditary legacy.

Also, storage rings are something very useful and against the heavens.

Just imagine, how can a small object store a lot of things.

"Father, I got this ring from the corpses of people from another world." Zhou Yuan said lightly.

"People from another world? What do you mean?" Zhou Tian asked curiously.

"I'll tell you..."

............

"Oh, I see." Zhou Tian nodded in understanding.

What Zhou Yuan said made sense. He got those storage rings from people from other worlds who probably had more advanced martial arts than this world.

He believed it. After all, it is also the most reasonable thing.

"Okay, we've gotten a lot of good things in here. I think it's time we leave this world." Zhou Tian said.

"Alright." Zhou Yuan nodded.

.............

Zhou Yuan and Zhou Tian came out of the cave and landed on the ground.

"Now, how do we get out of here?" Zhou Tian frowned.

"Maybe I can do something." Zhou Yuan said.

After that, he flew through the air and focused.

His eyes changed to the heavenly demon mode.

He was trying to use the same technique used by the heavenly demon to create a dimensional rift.

He closed his eyes and focused.

His sweat was pouring down and his aura was being drained very quickly.

But his efforts were not in vain. It can be seen that there is a crack in front of him that is gradually widening.

He tried to make the crack the size of his body so it could pass through.

He was very serious at this point. His aura was literally running out just to create that crack.

But at this moment, he felt energy flowing in his dantian.

He opened his eyes and looked back a little.

Of course, his father gave him energy.

Zhou Yuan closed his eyes again and focused even more.

.........

5 minutes passed, and Zhou Yuan and Zhou Tian were both sweating profusely. They were almost out of energy.

Zhou Tian was the same, he didn't expect this technique to use so much energy.

Crack!

A cracking sound was heard and the crack expanded to the size of a grown man.

"We did it!" Zhou Yuan said happily.

His efforts were not in vain and he managed to create a rift between dimensions.

They directly entered it and left this world.
