Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang arrived back in the Caves and concentrated on his body.

All the warriors had increased their level by just focusing on their bodies, but Shang was about to do more.

His body was now ready to reach the next level, but Shang also focused on Impose.

Usually, Shang wouldn't need more than a couple of minutes to reach the next level after absorbing an Abomination, but this time, Shang took several hours.

He was trying his best to connect Impose with his body during the small breakthrough.

However, that wasn't easy.

Impose was like a level two Concept, something that was necessary to reach the next Realm, not just the next level.

Right now, Shang was trying to create a major breakthrough when he was only undergoing a minor breakthrough, which was impossible.

The world decided what kind of breakthrough someone went through.

Shang definitely didn't have the power nor the Mana to undergo another major breakthrough, which only left a minor breakthrough.

However, a minor breakthrough was just that.

Minor.

Minor breakthroughs didn't change the body in a fundamental way. They were only checkpoints on someone's way to the next major breakthrough.

But Shang just kept on trying.

There had to be a way to make this work.

After a day of trying to make this work, Shang managed to change his minor breakthrough by a little bit.

It wasn't much, but Shang managed to summon a small storm of Mana that got absorbed into his body.

That small storm of Mana went into Shang's body, but it had no idea what it was supposed to be doing there.

Shang wasn't undergoing a major breakthrough, and the world only had ways to help people with their major breakthroughs.

After pestering the world for so long, the world gave him some Mana.

And now what?

As soon as Shang felt the small storm of Mana, he shoved all of it into his Mana pathways and cast a Spell.
