For some reason, Zhang Yang had once looked up the Sword in the Stone in the Kamar-Taj Library.
Judging by its reputed power, it should have surpassed Gungnir across the entire Multiverse.
At its peak, it could supposedly even shatter the Infinity Stones.
But Zhang Yang had seen no such power when he used it.
When he first wielded it, he had thought its power was decent.
The problem was that the Sword in the Stone had not grown stronger as his own power increased.
Instead, it had hit a ceiling.
That was why Zhang Yang rarely used it anymore.
When he had brought the Sword in the Stone into the Dark Dimension, he had expected it to cut the dimension open.
The result had been disappointing.
"The Sword in the Stone doesn't seem all that powerful," Zhang Yang said honestly.
Compared with the magic he could now wield, it really wasn't.
"That's because it doesn't have Qing," Wong explained.
"The Sword in the Stone bears Wizard Merlin's blood. He used his blood to forge a pact with the sword so it could help King Arthur ascend the throne. That left his magic within it."
"The sword itself isn't especially powerful, but with Wizard Merlin's magic behind it, it can unleash its full strength."
"So to draw out that strength, it needs the Merlin Family's magical energy. And that energy must be pure—untouched by any other school of magic."
None of what Wong said could be found in the Kamar-Taj Library's records.
Of course, Wong knew because The Ancient One had told him.
"So that's why Qing appeared?" Zhang Yang asked, looking at Wong intently.
"Yes, Genius Mage. We're here." Wong nodded and pushed open the door to the front hall.
