Sword God in a World of Magic

BANG!

Shang was thrown away, and his arms broke. However, they were quickly healed by his warrior's body.

He quickly caught himself and charged forward again.

In front of him was a massive beetle with two gigantic horns. It looked very similar to a stag beetle from Earth.

Shang had been fighting this specimen for several minutes by now, which was very unusual for him since most of his fights only took a couple of seconds.

However, Shang wasn't fighting the beetle to kill it but to train himself.

Right now, Shang had made Sword burn off a bit of its mass and made it transform into a long saber with a thick back.

The feeling Sword gave him when he swung it was very different from normal.

'Sure enough, without using my Affinity or Domain, fighting a Late Commander Stage beast isn't that easy, but that's exactly what I need.'

At this moment, Shang was only fighting the beetle with his swordsmanship, which definitely wasn't bad. After all, he had trained with Teacher Mervin for five years.

Teacher Mervin had an incredibly weak body compared to beasts, but he could still fight a beast on his own level alone, which was insane.

If Teacher Mervin had Shang's physical power, he could turn that beetle into several pieces in no time at all.

Shang couldn't achieve something like that yet, but he knew that as long as he kept going like this, he would eventually become powerful enough to rival that feat.

Right now, Shang's body was nearly as powerful as the body of an Initial True Path Stage warrior, even though he was only at the Mid Commander Stage.

The difference in power between humans and beasts became more and more ridiculous as their level increased.

After seeing the image of the diamond, Shang's Path was basically set.

Shang wanted to create a Path that could lead him to the absolute top, and he fought with different kinds of swords. So, logically, wouldn't the best Path be the Path that included all the different variations of swords?

It would take an insanely long time, but it seemed doable in Shang's mind.

Also, diamonds represented purity and the peak of hardness, right?

Shang could tell that the True Path essentially laid a foundation for all his future powers. He knew that there were probably around nine Realms in this world, and the True Path Stage represented the fourth.
