Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang's Addum slashed forward, its edge glowing with intense heat due to all the absorbed Mana.

On top of that, Shang used the Mana he had just absorbed with his Void Break to increase the power of his attack.

This would be the best shot he would get, and he would take advantage of it!

BOOOOOOOOOM!

Shang's Addum exploded onto the Mage's Mana Shield, shooting him into the distance.

In an instant, the Mage had already been shot away by over 20 kilometers.

Several parts of the Mage's body exploded with blood due to the g-forces acting on his body.

Even though his Mana Shield wasn't broken, he still received some injuries.

The Mage took a deep breath and gritted his teeth in pain.

However, he didn't try to stop his body and let the momentum carry him further.

Naturally, Shang didn't wait and immediately shot after the Mage at his full speed.

With this attack, Shang destroyed nearly 40% of the Mage's Mana.

That was a lot of Mana, but one had to remember that Shang had struck his opponent from melee range with two Void Breaks worth of Mana.

The Mage slowed down, and in the end, he was nearly 50 kilometers away from Shang.

Shang managed to use up a lot of the Mage's Mana, but the Mage now had time to prepare his Spells.

Unless Shang used Mana Step.

Sadly, Shang wasn't sure if he should use Mana Step or not.

Shang could reach the Mage with three Mana Steps, but that would consume 60% of the Mana inside his mind, which didn't recover nearly as quickly as the Mana of his opponent.

However, if the Mage managed to survive the attack, he would know that Shang could also use Mana Step, making him prepared for future uses.

Then, Shang wouldn't have the surprise effect of Mana Step.

Shang preferred using Mana Step to end a fight since it often gave him the opportunity to kill his opponent.

'But if I don't use it, he gets to prepare at least five Spells.'

'Can I survive a barrage of five prepared Spells?'

Shang's mind was very powerful, and his thoughts moved at incredible speeds.

He debated long with himself, but nearly no time passed in the real world.

In the end, Shang came to a decision.
