Sword God in a World of Magic

The clouds dispersed, and Shang emerged.

He appeared unchanged, but his Aura had become more radiant and heavier.

If anyone could sense his Aura, they would find all other Auras pale in comparison, as its intensity surpassed their perception of reality.

Shang slowly raised his hand and clenched it.

To his surprise, it was rather unremarkable. Having already reached this level of power using Void Break, it had become his new normal.

Not much had changed for Shang. He simply felt that the world had become clearer, and his body had grown stronger.

The true disparity in power between Realms didn't lie within the Realms themselves, but in the comprehension required to reach them.

After attaining the Seventh Realm, Shang's first action was to check his Spirit Sense.

"60,000 kilometers. Sixfold," Shang thought, somewhat astonished.

Upon further reflection, it made sense.

Obtaining an additional level in Spirit Sense demanded exponentially more comprehension and momentum. The first four levels were relatively straightforward, requiring the understanding of concepts to double its capacity.

However, progressing from the fivefold Spirit Sense became significantly more challenging.

At that point, one had to grasp concepts beyond their current level. It was akin to reaching greater heights rather than greater distances, attainable only through concepts surpassing their current abilities.

While it was theoretically possible to achieve such heights through sheer momentum, it was exceedingly difficult.

Reaching a fourfold Spirit Sense felt two-dimensional, while a fivefold Spirit Sense felt three-dimensional.

The journey from the first four levels to the fifth level was distinct and required a different approach.
