Sword God in a World of Magic

The laugh echoed throughout the world.

The next moment, the earth split apart, and a body came out of it.

It was Shang!

And he had fully recovered!

At this moment, even the Archivist became nervous.

They had all needed to attack Shang together to destroy him!

And now, they were back at the beginning, but with one difference.

The Archivist's Horn was gone!

Without his Horn, the Archivist's defense wouldn't be nearly as solid.

If Shang began to attack again, the Archivist might very quickly run out of Mana unless he decided to use two of his artifacts to defend himself.

Now, the Archivist needed the five Emperors!

Without the five of them, the Archivist would most likely not be able to win against Shang!

The Archivist turned to Kali, Abaddon, and Gregorio with a warning gaze.

They were not allowed to interfere this time!

The other five Emperors nodded with conviction toward each other and readied for another battle with Shang.

This one would be much more difficult, but it wasn't impossible to win!

And this time, they would make sure that Shang would die!

"Hahahahaha!"

The eyes of the Emperors opened in shock as another laugh came from below the ground.

The next moment, another spot in the ground broke apart, and what the Emperors saw made them believe that they had entered a nightmare.

A third Shang had appeared!

"Hahahaha!"

A fourth one!

Even the Archivist's eyes were filled with terror now.

With the Archivist's knowledge and experience, he could tell that all of these bodies were real!

All of Shang's bodies began to grin at the same time.
