The " no qi " in Joy of Life referred to the fact that there was no real ability or technique to cultivate qi in the world. On the contrary, True Qi was interpreted as the nuclear radiation energy left behind after the nuclear explosion of the previous civilization, which was transformed into the ability to cultivate by people. Cultivators absorbed and utilized nuclear radiation energy to enhance their physical strength and abilities. Therefore, the " no qi " in Joy of Life meant that the practitioner did not really have qi in the traditional sense. Instead, they cultivated by absorbing and utilizing nuclear radiation energy.
