Sword God in a World of Magic

The Space Ring fell out of the portal, and Shang inspected it.

Then, he nodded.

'Not bad,' he thought. 'This guy probably has nearly a hundred Grade Seven Mana Crystals. With everything else I've gotten, I should have earned more than 200 Grade Seven Mana Crystals.'

Less than half an hour.

This was how long Shang had taken to earn more than 200 Grade Seven Mana Crystals.

Shang pocketed the Space Ring and planned his next move.

Meanwhile, the Bolt was looking at Shang with shock.

He still couldn't fully accept what he had just witnessed.

Near the top of the greater Magic Circle encompassing the wilderness, a Mid Ancestral Mage Cloud had been calmly waiting and recovering.

After he had been attacked by Shang, he went deeper into the Eternal Ocean and searched for something valuable.

Sadly, the intense pressure and gravity had been far stronger than the Mage had anticipated, and he needed to go to shallower waters to recover some of his Mana.

He hadn't expected that the intense pressure would use up that much of his Mana, but that also didn't matter that much.

After resurfacing for a while, he was planning to return to the bottom of the Eternal Ocean.

And then, he exploded.

A humongous black sphere suddenly consumed him and the surrounding kilometers.

The surroundings had been filled with insanely dense Darkness Mana.

It took a while for the dense Water Mana from the outside to wash the Darkness Mana away, but when it did, the Cloud had been revealed again.
