Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang wasn't quite sure why there was a fountain of blood in the middle of the hall, but his question got answered rather quickly as letters appeared in the air.

"Put a drop of your blood in the fountain."

Shang walked over to the fountain and cut his finger.

A small stream of blood flowed down Shang's finger since he wasn't really careful with the depth of the cut.

As the first drops of blood hit the fountain, one of the doors at the edges of the hall opened, and Shang walked through.

The door closed behind him, and Shang's Spirit Sense could no longer see the fountain.

Shang found himself in an old hallway, but he didn't really care about it a whole lot as he just continued walking.

Shang walked slightly downward for several minutes. He wasn't moving at his top speed, but he was still moving at quite a brisk pace.

Shang had probably moved around 200,000 kilometers deep into the ground, which was quite surprising.

Why would anyone need such a long hallway?

Eventually, Shang reached another door and opened it.

He was greeted by a dark room with a floating transparent cube in the middle.

Shang could see a small inscription in the middle of the cube.

"Banish the darkness with light."

Shang looked around his new surroundings.

His Spirit Sense was severely suppressed, only allowing him to view a couple of meters of his surroundings. Additionally, Shang could feel very dense Darkness Mana around him.

Even more, the Darkness Mana had a will on it, which seemed to be impossible. After all, how could a dead person imprint their will on Mana?

However, Shang knew that these rules had only remained true for the people he had been fighting against.

Mage Kings and Mage Emperors might have ways to mimic wills with Magic Circles.

Nevertheless, the will was a problem since this meant that Shang couldn't control the Darkness Mana or move it. So, he actually had to do this small challenge the intended way.
