Sword God in a World of Magic

Silence.

Shang didn't say anything for a long time.

He had consumed his momentum?

It was a simple sentence, but for some reason, Shang couldn't understand it.

What did Lucin mean by that he had consumed his momentum?

Shang had finally comprehended his version of Void Casting, right?

He needed that to reach the Sixth Realm, right?

And now, he couldn't reach the Sixth Realm?

But he was already 900 years old!

He only had a century left!

"What?" Shang asked after several seconds.

Lucin nodded. "You heard me correctly. You used up all of your momentum to transform your body just now. I couldn't see what exactly you did since my Spirit Sense can't look into your body, but I can feel that a monumental change has occurred."

"And such a monumental change can only happen by consuming a significant amount of momentum."

Shang couldn't focus on anything, and he felt like the entire world was vanishing around him.

That was impossible!

How?!
