Sword God in a World of Magic

Yet, when Shang saw the insanely powerful lightning beam, he wasn't worried in any way.

'Seems like I won't be able to use Dusk against the Serpent.'

At that moment, Shang's Colossal Sword was already in a blocking position, and that position was just perfect.

He only angled it a bit more.

'But I didn't expect to use Dusk anyway.'

'Luckily, I thought of this possibility.'

WHOOOOM!

At that moment, a terrifying amount of light gathered around the Colossal Sword, and it all went to the same point.

Shang's body atrophied tremendously.

He had just used up basically all of his life energy, and he quickly converted about 80% of his Mana into more life energy, making his body instantly healthy again.

With the overcharged life energy from absorbing the hedgehog, Shang had essentially used 150% of his maximum life energy just now, which was an insane amount.

However, that meant that Shang wouldn't be able to use Brilliance again as long as he didn't want to fight as a nearly lifeless husk for the rest of the battle. That essentially meant that he couldn't use Dusk. Without Brilliance, Dusk could easily be evaded.

Then, the pure beam of lightning hit the Colossal Sword at the exact point where all the light had gathered.

DING!

At that moment, a humongous wave of light exploded out of the Colossal Sword.

For just an instant, the beam of lightning seemed to pause in front of the sword.

And then, Shang pushed forward.

BANG!

The lightning beam shot at the Serpent!

The Serpent hadn't been prepared for such a fast and powerful attack right after it had unleashed its own.

It could barely move part of its body to the side.

BOOOOOM!

The beam of lightning tore through half the width of the Serpent, leaving a humongous burned hole behind!
