Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang vanished.

The ghostly white figure that had just been standing in front of the door had vanished.

Of course, that didn't really matter since the Mages weren't able to perceive him with their Spirit Senses anyway.

At this moment, Shang was moving through the corridors at rapid speeds without making any noise and without being seen.

Over the many decades, Shang had comprehended all the different forms of Impose.

Yes, Shang was at the Peak True Path Stage right now.

After gaining access to all forms of Impose, Shang's power exploded more and more, and he also managed to combine several of his Elements.

For the past 40 years, Shang had been focusing on combining his four different Imposes into one.

Sadly, without any success.

This was the last step Shang needed to take in order to reach the Fifth Realm, and it definitely wasn't easy to take.

However, even if he didn't succeed, he still managed to create more techniques and refine his fighting style even more.

His current way of moving rapidly without making a sound and while being invisible to Spirit Senses was something he had created out of Shock and Distortion.

The movement wasn't as instantaneous as Shock, but it also didn't require nearly as much Mana or life energy. Additionally, with Shang's new Mana pathways, the cost of using his elemental attacks lowered even more.

This ghostly, silent, and nearly imperceptible way of moving was called Ghost Step.

At the same time, the Mages across the entire castle were activating their Mana Shield and communicating with each other.

Even though they were well-trained and experienced, suddenly seeing that over 80% of their loved ones had died was still a shock to them, making it much harder for them to organize.

They were all searching for the enemy, but they couldn't find them!

It was like a ghost or phantom was attacking them!

At that moment, most people realized what was going on.

So, the rumors were true!

This was probably the thing that had annihilated the Lenner Family!
