Sword God in a World of Magic

After achieving his breakthrough in his Fire Affinity, Shang left his new cave and scouted the Zone to the east of this one.

The next Zone was filled with mountains made of metal with absolutely no vegetation on them. But just like the previous one, this one also had several caves.

After checking everything, Shang went to the border between the two Zones while still retaining about five kilometers of distance to the next Zone.

Then, Shang closed his eyes and connected with the Abominations.

Just like last time, Shang summoned a Commander Stage Abomination together with its army.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

In an instant, the eastern half of the Zone was filled with Abominations, and Shang quickly absorbed the Commander Stage Abomination. After that, he ordered the Abominations to kill everything towards the west, and they followed.

Just like last time, the Abominations went wild and attacked everything they could see while Shang ran towards the east.

With his newly absorbed Abomination, his physical power was now at around 90% of the power of an Early Commander Stage beast, and Shang could feel that he could soon make a breakthrough.

BZZT!

The mark of the Thunder Horse got activated as Shang was retreating, which meant that the Zone Beast had noticed him.

Just like last time, Shang's fear intensified.

Every time he decided to summon Abominations, he was playing with death, but in his mind, the risk was necessary.

How was he supposed to become the strongest if he couldn't unveil his full potential?

As Shang fled towards the east, more and more explosions appeared west of him.

He had no idea how many humans and beasts he had doomed by summoning this group of Abominations.

'Every time I summon the Abominations, innocent people die. Not everyone wants to fight a war or kill me, but these people die nevertheless,' Shang thought with a frown as he fled towards the east.

'In order to increase my power, everyone around me suffers.'

'I don't like it, but I have no other choice. My power is more important than anything else!'

'I can't let anyone notice the connection between the Abominations and me! If anyone notices, I will become the enemy of the entire world!'
