Sword God in a World of Magic

Was Shang actually composed of Mana?

The answer seemed evident. After all, every living being was made of Mana.

Yet, the black energy treated his body in the same manner as it did with Abominations and Entropy Ore.

Furthermore, all the black energy that made up the Abominations had also been absorbed by Shang.

Lastly, Shang remembered the Bloodline Infusion.

Shang's body had been replaced with the body of an Abomination that had been shaped to resemble his old body.

Shang's body was composed of Abominations, and Abominations were made of this black energy with a trace of Mana.

So, Shang was also made of this black energy with a trace of Mana.

Shang was fundamentally distinct from all other living beings in Aterium.

And then, Shang had another thought.

'Could the Life Concepts even work on me?' he pondered.

Shang looked at his left arm.

His left arm wasn't truly his own. It was created with Mana and was essentially like another person's arm, fused with Shang's body.

In fact, Shang couldn't even sacrifice his left arm to Entropy since it wasn't a part of him.

It was essentially just a prosthetic.

If someone knew the level five Concept of Life, could they even regrow Shang's eyes and left arm?

Shang's eyes and his old left arm had been composed of Mana and black energy, and the person with the Life Concepts couldn't possibly control this black energy.
