Karl's attacks did not involve any special technique.
They came down to one word.
Speed.
In any fight, speed could shatter every defense.
The same was true in a duel of magic.
When speed was fast enough, it often decided everything.
With his powerful mastery over the Law of Space, Karl moved incredibly fast.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Kaluu.
When choosing a target, strike the weakest point first!
Karl appeared directly behind Kaluu.
The Rift-Cleaving Blade in his hand stabbed out without another word, moving at an astonishing speed.
Its razor-sharp aura even cut space open.
The blade appeared directly inside Kaluu's body.
However, Kaluu might not have been the strongest among the three, but he was definitely the one who feared death the most.
The instant he sensed Karl appearing behind him, his entire body changed.
His flesh directly turned into a jelly-like substance.
Karl's Rift-Cleaving Blade could not pose any real threat to his body at all.
Even so, he still let out a piercing scream.
"Careful! His magic can injure the soul!"
Kaluu appeared more than a thousand meters away.
All his facial features were squeezed together, making him look utterly miserable.
Hearing this, Mephisto and Shuma-Gorath both showed wary expressions.
They were demons.
What they feared most was power capable of harming the soul.
"Don't let him get close!"
Shuma-Gorath's psychic fluctuations shook violently.
His mental force condensed into substance, directly forming more than a thousand psychic spikes.
Like a storm, those psychic spikes poured toward Karl.
These powerful spikes even interfered with the real world.
Visible ripples appeared directly in the air.
Karl's expression changed.
He pushed one hand forward.
A Tao Mandala with seven rings formed in front of him.
Clink, clink, clink!
A large number of ripples appeared across Karl's magical shield.
However, the spikes formed from that powerful mental force still failed to break through the magical shield Karl had created.
Shuma-Gorath's expression changed.
It was only ordinary magic, yet it could block a psychic attack?
He could do that without using psychic magic?
He waved his hand again.
A massive number of psychic spikes shot toward Karl from every direction.
"I'll help too."
Mephisto also spoke.
Evil power surged forth.
A black flame appeared.
The black flame swallowed toward Karl.
That black flame contained countless forms of evil.
Everything around it was burned by it.
Karl could even see the fuel burning within those flames.
They were souls being constantly devoured.
As expected of a Lord of Hell.
Truly evil.
He used the souls of living beings as fuel, continuously burning them and drawing out the resentment hidden deep within those souls to attack.
That method was simply nauseating.
Karl raised his eyebrows.
A dazzling golden light appeared in his palm.
"Bolts of Balthakk! Careful!"
"That's one of Kamar-Taj's most offensive spells!"
Kaluu, who had finally recovered slightly on the other side, shouted loudly.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Golden lightning linked together in the empty vacuum of space.
Wherever it passed, space shattered inch by inch.
Crack!
Crack!
Space was collapsing, trembling violently.
Even in outer space, where sound could not travel, they still heard something like glass shattering in their ears.
The golden lightning kept moving.
Everything in front of it was destroyed by that condensed power.
Those dazzling psychic energies, as well as the flame fueled by souls, were all directly destroyed and shattered by this purest power.
"You two—Mephisto and Shuma-Gorath."
Karl looked at the two great demons with disgust.
He controlled a large mass of Bolts of Balthakk, sending them across the void as they shot toward the two of them.
Like maggots clinging to bone, they lingered and refused to disperse.
Shuma-Gorath and Mephisto dodged frantically.
Under Karl's control, the Bolts of Balthakk were extremely agile.
Even if they tore through space, they still could not shake them off.
They could only take the attack head-on.
Very soon, a red light flashed in Shuma-Gorath's eye.
A pure psychic barrier appeared before him.
The vast energy formed a psychic wall that was probably several meters thick.
Even Karl's powerful Bolts of Balthakk were unable to pierce through that layer of protection.
On the other side, Mephisto also used some unknown method to directly escape the attack.
"Is that all?"
Mephisto smiled disdainfully.
Karl also revealed a brilliant smile.
The next moment, blinding golden light lit up behind him.
In an instant, radiance burst across the void.
At that moment, Karl looked like a radiant god descending.
Half the universe seemed to be illuminated by the golden light behind him.
However, Mephisto had no mood to admire the sight. Instead, his expression changed drastically.
What golden light?
This was clearly endless golden lightning from that damned monster!
Crackle!
Crack!
Crack!
The sound of space shattering rang out everywhere.
The entire sky was filled with golden lightning.
Seeing this scene, the faces of Mephisto, Shuma-Gorath, and Kaluu turned green.
"Mephisto, it's one thing if you want to get yourself killed, but why drag us down with you?"
Shuma-Gorath roared.
The ferocious tentacles around his body propped themselves up.
Mental force as dense as solid matter appeared, and space trembled.
It seemed as if something in a distant space was trying to come over.
"You want to use the power of your true body in front of me?"
"No."
"Today, I'm leaving all of your avatars here."
Karl said coldly.
He stretched out his hand.
The surrounding void seemed to catch on something.
In an instant, the surrounding space was torn apart.
The aura that had just surged around Shuma-Gorath instantly dropped back down.
His most hideous giant eye was filled with disbelief.
What the hell?
He could actually sever the link between him and his true body?
Was this some kind of joke?
He could sense his true body.
But he could not draw on its power at all!
What level of spatial control was this?
Just how far had this kid's understanding of space reached?
Shuma-Gorath's heart sank.
He had greatly underestimated Karl.
However, he no longer had time to think about it.
The blinding lightning, carrying astonishing power, arrived before them.
Rumble.
Like a tsunami.
An almost endless wave of power crashed toward the three of them.
Shuma-Gorath's giant eye turned red, bloodshot all over.
It was clear that he had used some ability to strengthen his own power.
A solid Spatial Barrier appeared in front of him.
Then he saw Mephisto and Kaluu hiding directly behind his huge body.
For one instant, Shuma-Gorath almost spat blood.
