It didn't take long for Shang to finish the remaining books. Sure, some of the books took a lot of calculation and brainpower to understand, but Shang still finished them in a couple of years.

A moment later, Shang touched the little pin on his chest and contacted the Lightning Emperor.

The Isolation Barrier didn't interfere with the connection.

"Hey, Shang! What's up?" the Lightning Emperor asked with a chipper voice.

"I'm done with the books," Shang said.

"Oh, cool! Did you like them?" he asked.

"They were very informative. Especially the Watcher's Record," Shang said.

"Yeah, that one's a classic," the Lightning Emperor said.

"What's the Archivist like?" Shang asked.

"The Archivist?" the Lightning Emperor repeated. "He has white hair and wears all these ancient trinkets on his person. He's also incomparably wise, and he has this Aura that makes you think that everything in the world is within his control. Kind of like the ancient head of a big family, you know?"

"He also knows Spells that I don't even know how to create or counter. For example, nobody in the world can make a copy of his book. Any method of trying to copy it fails or produces unreadable and senseless text. Even if you just write down what you've learned from memory, at some point, it starts turning into gibberish."

"The book even updates itself automatically. All of us got one copy each from the Archivist, and the additional sentences after Lucius' ascension appeared on their own in all of our copies. He's crazy powerful!"

"Without Lucius' suppression, and if the Archivist wanted to, he could probably fight all nine of us at the same time and maybe even win!"

Shang listened intently to the Lightning Emperor's words.

"He's that powerful?" he asked.

"Very, very powerful," the Lightning Emperor answered.

"What if King Sanctified Death became a Mage Emperor?" Shang asked.
