Adeptal arts = creation of omni ubiquity nets = sub-space creation
Adeptal arts conjure adeptal energy. I explained about this countless times, and you're against it.
-_- , that's why I didn't remember this explanation of yours, and only your argument about the Permission Sigils and Qiqi's abilities. Well, let's go.
In
Shenhe's lore, despite being a human/mortal, it is stated that she has enormous talent for Adeptus Arts, in addition to being said that she became a master in Adeptus Arts, and she has also created her own Sigil (demonstrating that there are other type of Sigils);
A human managed to learn Adeptus Arts and combine Aseptus Art (Waijing) with his own Art (transcendence) and create another art, once again demonstrating that Adeptus Arts are simply the skills created by Adeptus, and not the manipulation of Adeptus Energy;
Traveler used Adeptus Arts long before he was imbued with Adeptus Energy (
Xiao Story Quest);
The game, lore and Xiao several times call the ability Adeptus Arts (
Xiao Story Quest), even those that have already been used by humans (making it obvious once again that Adeptus Arts is not related to the manipulation of Adeptus Energy);
The
Omni Ubiquity Nets itself is an "evolution" of an Adeptus Art created by a human, in addition to the Omni Ubiquity Nets itself being created by a human;
Omni Ubiquity Nets is an "evolution" of Onmyoudou, and has total connection with Subspace, keeping the essence of animals in Subspace, and taking into account that Omni Ubiquity Nets, which is an evolution of Onmyiudou, has a connection and similarity with Waijing, It's pretty obvious that Waijing (Subspace's creation) was used to create Onmyoudou (created by a human), and then it was "evolved" into Omni Ubiquity Nets (still by a human), which means that a human used Waijing, what else once, it makes it obvious that Adeptus Energy is not needed to use Adeptus Arts (
Labyrinth Warriors Event)
There are several other proofs/statements in the lore, but I'm sure this is enough to prove my point (that Adeptus Arts does not use Adeptus Energy, and that Adeptus Art is not Manipulation of Adeptus Energy), mainly due to the amount of evidence /declarations (even Xiao Story Quest has more than one statement), and the fact that I does not use speculation, but rather things mentioned in the story itself.
So my point about Qiqi's abilities stands, and the Permission Sigil is an Adeptus Art because it is an ability created by an Adeptus (Zhongli) and used by them, and not because it is imbued with Adeptus Energy.
If you think that the Permission Sigil is not an Adeptus Arts, it would be even easier for me, since I wouldn't need to prove anything, since the Sigils wouldn't even be Adeptus Arts to begin with, so there would be no need to mention them, already which would just be Talismans imbued with Adeptus Energy.
And the correlation between Adeptus Energy and "Subspace Creation Energy" is completely meaningless, and in addition to not having a single proof of this correlation, there is also the fact that this "Subspace Creation Energy" is only mentioned and used in Subspace , so there is no proof that you could use it for anything else, and the correlation doesn't make sense, in addition to having no proof, they are different energies used for different things, and as if that weren't enough, there is also the fact that Subspace Energy Creation being used to create Subspace is just a theory, as it is said that Subspace is created with the "power of the mind" (imagination), and Tubby says you have to imagine the item to become something (like imagining a chair).
It can also be said that: Subspace Creation Energy = "Power of the mind" (imagination) which is said to be used in the creation of Subspace = Making items form using thought.
Or maybe Subspace Energy Creation is just an energy that exists around items created in Subspace, since that's all it says about that energy, and so that energy wouldn't actually even be used in the creation of Subsoace or its items, but rather just the "power of the mind" (imagination/thought).
