Sword God in a World of Magic

952 Chapter 952 — Abaddon's Plan

Shang had returned to his Isolation Barrier.

Luckily, he didn't need to fight in the war. One would think that after 6,000 years without Shang, the other Empires would have already pushed the Lightning Manor back into their palace.

However, they didn't need to do that anymore.

Why did the Empires fight against the Lightning Manor that desperately in the first place?

It was because the Lightning Emperor had been so confident in someone that he had staked the Mana of the late Life Emperor in a tournament for Mage Kings while King Sanctified Death still existed.

If the Lightning Manor managed to snatch the Life Emperor's Mana from King Sanctified Death, the Lightning Manor would gain a second Mage Emperor. Together with the already-powerful Lightning Emperor, they would become the rulers of the entire world.

So, to stop that from happening, they wanted to annihilate the Lightning Manor together with their trump card.

But their trump card had died already.

No one could have possibly survived that apocalyptic explosion of Death Mana filled with the level five Concept of Exodus.

The explosion had been so powerful that it even swallowed and destroyed the barrier. It had been so strong that the Lightning Emperor hadn't even been able to get Shang out before clearing it. If he had attempted something like that, the Death Mana might have invaded his mind, which would have opened him up to an attack from another Emperor.

This was Death Mana with the Concept of Exodus. Just touching it would provoke it into invading one's mind and wreaking havoc there.

Someone in the Peak Seventh Realm couldn't survive something like that, even if they had a sixfold Spirit Sense.

So, why attack the Lightning Manor? There was no reason to attack the Lightning Manor anymore.

As long as the Lightning Manor didn't expand, there wouldn't be an issue.

In the past, time had been on the side of the Lightning Manor, but now it was on their side.
