Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang and the Sweeper traveled toward the southeast for another hour.

Eventually, the two of them slowed down and stopped.

"You stay here. I will scout around for a bit," the Sweeper said.

Shang only nodded.

The Sweeper vanished, and Shang simply waited.

Shang had no idea what defenses were in front of them, but they probably weren't weak.

About ten minutes later, the Sweeper returned.

"I found a good spot where we can pass. The person guarding that spot has an Earth Affinity, and he doesn't seem very attentive," the Sweeper said.

Shang only nodded again.

The two flew towards the south for a couple of minutes and stopped again.

By now, Shang could tell that the surroundings were different again, and they were different in a sense that reminded him of Area 23.

The Earth and Darkness Mana of the Eternal Maw were reaching this place.

Since releasing so much of one's Mana was seen as a provocation amongst beasts, nearly no Ancestral Beast dared to release its Mana like this. Because of that, this part of the world was very temperate without any particular Zones.

But things were different for Beast Lords.

There was nothing that could possibly threaten them except for Mages, but the Mages also didn't mind the Mana the Beast Lords were releasing. In fact, the Mages wanted the Beast Lords to release their Mana.

Because of that, the areas surrounding the Beast Lords could be considered Zones, but there were not nearly enough Beast Lords to cover Aterium in Zones.

Right now, the two of them were still around 15,000 kilometers away from the Eternal Maw, but Shang could already feel quite a bit of Darkness and Earth Mana in the surroundings.

Due to that, the plants also assumed darker colors, and the terrain grew more mountainous.
