Sword God in a World of Magic

Time slowed to a crawl as the turtle looked upon the distant city.

By now, the turtle was only around 20 kilometers away. Sure, that was a great distance, but it definitely was within the turtle's range.

At that moment, Shang felt like he had come face to face with death.

What could he do?

Nothing.

Just like the entire day up to now, Shang couldn't do anything.

Everything surrounding him at this moment was far above his power. He could, at best, be an observer.

If even the most random soldier decided to kill Shang, there would be nothing he could do.

At this moment, Shang felt powerless.

His life lay in the hands of others.

Slowly, several holes opened on the mountain on the turtle's back again.

They pointed towards Warrior's Paradise.

Shang felt his hair stand on end.

BOOOOOOM!

An explosion occurred.

However, it wasn't within Warrior's Paradise.

No, it came from the turtle!

Shang's eyes widened in shock.

What had he just seen?!

Out of nowhere, a huge part of the turtle's mountain was literally blown off!

The turtle's body swayed to the side as a deep, rumbling growl came out of its mouth.

It was like the turtle had just been hit by a gigantic bullet!

Tons and tons of stone fell off the turtle's back, and blood began to flow out of the mountain waves.
