Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang's appearance had changed quite a bit.

Wearing normal clothing was no longer fitting for him since he had no legs and only one arm. Because of that, he had decided to just wear the white cloth that the Lightning Emperor had put on him.

The cloth was amazing since it only allowed Spirit Sense to exit but not enter. Naturally, it wasn't as effective as Entropy Ore when it came to isolating something, but even Mage Emperors wouldn't have it easy to look through it.

Another reason why Shang had decided to wear this cloth was that he couldn't realistically hide the loss of his limbs anymore.

Hiding the loss of an arm wasn't difficult with the Lightning Emperor's master over the Life Concepts, but hiding the loss of two legs was basically impossible.

Everyone had seen how Shang moved, and when he suddenly stopped putting strain on his legs, it would only create more suspicions and questions.

Because of that, Shang decided to take on a persona that didn't make him seem human anymore.

And maybe, that was actually accurate.

The more abnormal he seemed, the less the individual issues with him would be questioned.

The Mage Kings and Mage Emperors knew that Shang had been crippled in some way, and appearing like this made it more difficult to guess the specifics.

Was Shang crazy now?

Had he lost his mind? Stuff like that.

After entering the barrier, Shang didn't stop.

He kept shooting forward at incredible speeds.
