Obviously, the density of stone is greater than that of water. If a stone is placed in water, it will immediately sink. But why does it skim across the water when skipping stones?
Speed!
It's speed! The speed carried by the stone allows a denser, heavier stone to skim across the water surface, and it's only when the speed is exhausted that it finally sinks.
Austin's eyes suddenly lit up with brilliance, and he had an epiphany.
"No, rather than speed, it's about movement! The movement of the object changes everything!"
The stone's movement allows it to defy convention by skimming across the water. If Fighting Qi could be moved in a way to sustain its high energy without dissipating, like the skipping stone on water, it could achieve powerful remote attacks!
