Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang sat down and closed his right eye.

His Spirit Sense was fully focusing on his Mana Pathways.

Over the past years, he had performed his attacks so many times that he perfectly knew where he would move his Mana.

Right now, Shang was checking which Mana pathways he needed and which weren't in use.

Yes, there were several Mana pathways that hadn't been used even once, but that didn't mean that these Mana pathways were useless.

In fact, these Mana pathways would be used in his other three States. Not every state needed every single Mana pathway. Some of them even existed solely for a single attack.

In his Great Sword State, Shang was using around 70% of his Mana pathways.

He could theoretically create more attacks to use all his Mana pathways, but that would be a waste of time. Some Mana pathways would only be used if Shang swung his sword with one arm from his hip, which would be quite difficult to do in his Great Sword State.

After Shang checked all of his Mana pathways, he noted them down on a diagram. Luckily, there were a couple of magical artifacts that made it easy to project a picture onto a piece of paper. With Shang's wealth, these artifacts didn't cost a lot.

In just a couple of hours, Shang had created several intricately detailed diagrams of the Mana pathways inside his body.

Then, he went on to plan.

For now, he wouldn't touch the shared Mana pathways. After all, he couldn't be sure that any of his current changes wouldn't interfere with any attacks from his other States.

Redrawing fitting Mana pathways that were only used for a few attacks wasn't very difficult. Shang essentially only had to create the pathways according to a few guidelines.

But the further Shang progressed, the more difficult it got.

A lot of the pathways had to be used for several different attacks, which all had different conditions.
