Sword God in a World of Magic

At the southeastern corner, Shang saw a Mid Archmage enter.

An instant later, they exploded into a shower of gore.

Then, an Early Archmage entered and exploded.

The barrier only restricted more powerful people from entering. If they so chose to, weaker Mages could also fight the defender of the flag.

The Judgment Palace was sending in one fighter after the other, which immediately committed suicide.

Of course, there was a certain limitation to the rules. Only people within one Realm of difference were allowed to fight. That rule was to make sure that no weak and innocent people were accidentally killed since very weak people didn't necessarily know what was going on.

This meant that no one below the Early Archmage Realm was allowed to trigger the barrier and "fight" Shang.

So, every single person that entered and exploded was at least an Early Archmage.

Every single second, an Archmage from the Judgment Palace died in Shang's territory.

As time passed, Shang could feel something change.

The Death Mana in the surroundings was very slowly increasing in density.

'They want to turn my territory into a Pit of Death,' Shang thought.

'They are insane.'

Turning a barrier with a diameter of 10,000 kilometers into a Pit of Death powerful enough to kill an Ancestral Mage was beyond crazy.

Even if they used high-grade "bodies", such as Archmages, it would literally take millions upon millions to achieve that.

The Judgment Palace was using a very specific way to kill these Mages, which resulted in the density of their bodies and blood to reduce.

But in exchange for that, the volume increased drastically. Every single explosion coated the surrounding kilometers in a thick sheet of blood with lower density.
