Sword God in a World of Magic

When Shang confirmed that this was the problem, Callen started to stroke his beard in thought.

"I want to alter my pathways," Shang said.

Callen's brows furrowed at that point, but he kept thinking.

"It's risky," Callen said after several seconds. "From what I've heard, the passageways form during your breakthrough, and they have essentially been created by your Path, correct?"

Shang nodded.

"This means that these Mana passageways are a natural extension of your Path. Messing with them might weaken your Path or directly make it impossible to use it in the future. It would be like you knowing the theory but not being able to put it into practice."

Shang knew what that meant.

He had created all of his techniques before he had created his Path. Back then, using his techniques had cost several times more life energy and Mana than now.

If everything returned to how it was before, Shang would only be able to use a single Shock before running out of Mana. One Anger and his body would have already atrophied to a terrifying degree.

It would essentially cripple his Battle-Strength.

This was also the reason why Callen had to undergo another Mind Read before meeting Shang.

If Callen gave Shang incorrect information on purpose, he could essentially cripple one of the Skythunder Kingdom's strongest assets.

"I would advise against changing your Mana passageways," Callen said. "Instead, I would suggest altering your techniques to fit your Mana passageways. For example, you could change this movement to be a bit more like this."

Callen gave a couple of examples of how Shang could change the movement of his Mana for different attacks while pointing at different parts of the pictures.

Shang only frowned.

Then, he stood up and pulled out his Long Sword.

Callen wasn't panicked.

Shang swung his sword a couple of times and implemented Callen's changes.

After a couple of swings, Shang's frown deepened, and he ate a Wind Blade Seed.
