Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang returned to the Lightning Manor for the first time in a thousand years.

As he passed by the base of the tendril, he took a deep breath.

It felt weird not to be surrounded by enemies.

After a couple of moments, Shang decided to reach the Mid Void Break Realm.

He had fought long enough in the war. Now, it was time to increase his Realm and learn Concepts.

Now that Shang was no longer stuck, he could actually go through with his plan.

First, he needed to reach the Peak Void Break Realm.

After that, he would focus on comprehending the Concept of Temperatures.

And then, he would focus on his final goal.

The mysterious level five Concept of Entropy, the one that combined the Concepts of Twilight, Temperatures, Addition, and Subtraction.

By comprehending a level five Concept, Shang would be able to retain a sixfold Spirit Sense.

But wait, why a sixfold Spirit Sense? Wasn't breaking through with a Concept above one's level just enough for a fivefold Spirit Sense?

Yes, but Shang had a suspicion.

When he had absorbed the momentum in the Fusion Realm, he had probably elevated his "level of existence" permanently.

The power advantage of his body didn't disappear with each breakthrough, which meant that the raised quality was still there, and it should still be there when Shang reached the Seventh Realm.

The drawback was that Shang's spiritual weight had increased, which meant he needed even more momentum to break through.

After reaching the Mid Void Break Realm, Shang flew towards the Lightning Manor.

On his way, he saw several people readying themselves for battle, but Shang didn't interact with them or care.

A moment later, his new Transmission Medal rang, and Shang accepted the connection.

It was the Thunder from earlier.

"Shang Sword, you are required to battle someone," she said.

"I'm done fighting for now," Shang said.

Many kilometers away, the Thunder opened her eyes in surprise.
