Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang didn't hesitate for long. "Okay," he said.

The Sweeper nodded. "The Ancestral Beasts don't dare to fight too much. They can all feel the power of the Eternal Maw in the distance, and they fear that they might attract its attention by fighting."

"The Archbeasts don't mind too much since they know that they won't attract the attention of the Eternal Maw. You might have to fight some Archbeasts, but you should be powerful enough to deal with most of them."

"If any of them prove to be too powerful, simply come back to my Spirit Sense, and I will deal with them for you. You should be able to survive for a while with Mana Step and Mana Shield," the Sweeper said.

Shang only nodded.

"I'll be waiting here," the Sweeper said.

Without saying anything further, Shang flew towards the east.

Thanks to his huge Spirit Sense, he could avoid nearly all the powerful Archbeasts without any problems. Sure, he entered plenty of Spirit Senses of Ancestral Beasts, but just like the Sweeper said, they only quietly remained in their spots.

Additionally, Shang was still wearing the cloak the Sweeper had given him, which helped him even more in staying hidden.

Shang continued traveling for a couple of minutes. Since he didn't need to avoid every single beast, he didn't need to zigzag around and could just go toward the east in a straight line.

By now, the Sweeper was no longer in Shang's Spirit Sense.

The world around Shang became browner as fewer and fewer plants appeared. The Ancestral Beasts also became fewer and fewer.

But the number of Archbeasts actually shot up.

While the Ancestral Beasts had to be careful, the Archbeasts didn't, and Shang could see more and more.

'Not there yet,' Shang thought as he continued.

Suddenly, Shang's instincts began screaming at him.
