Sword God in a World of Magic

The Keeper opened her eyes and looked over at Room One.

"You've found what you've been searching for?" she asked evenly.

"Yes," Shang answered. "I am ready to reach the Fifth Realm."

The Keeper didn't answer for a while.

"The first person with a Path completely separate from Magic that reached the Fifth Realm ever since the Purge," she transmitted as she absentmindedly looked forward.

"History is about to be made. Too bad no one is going to know about it."

Shang waited for her instructions.

Advancing an entire Realm would change all the Mana flow in the surrounding kilometers, and this was a problem since the camp had to remain a secret.

If Shang decided to advance in Room One, he would absorb way too much of the Water Mana on the bottom. Additionally, his breakthrough might pull the Yellow Sunbreaker's attention towards the mysterious stone that constantly gave off Water Mana.

However, breaking through outside the base would be extremely risky for Shang. After all, his breakthrough might attract several powerful Archbeasts and maybe even Ancestral Beasts.

Usually, people would just break through inside a city after giving the rulers of the city some money for the inconvenience.

But Named Agents from this branch were forbidden from leaving.

The main reason was the secretive location of the branch and the fact that the Territory Lord was here.

The Territory Lord of the Temple of Blood was the most wanted criminal of the Natural Selection Company, and if they found her, they might arrive with all three of their Mage Lords.

It was difficult to find a fitting place for Shang to reach the Fusion Realm.

After thinking for a couple of seconds, the Keeper came to a decision and gave Shang his instructions.
