For Karl, fighting one opponent and fighting three opponents made no difference at all.
He had far too many methods.
He could kill one of them outright before the other two even reacted.
The Law of Time.
It was absolutely one of the most powerful laws in this world.
In a certain sense, this law was an invincible existence.
Unless someone possessed a method to counter it, they had no way to deal with an attack carrying the Law of Time.
Karl's body moved directly.
Under the effect of the Law of Time, his movements were not merely fast.
They had become something that transcended time itself.
It was similar to the Flash's ability.
His power was not pure speed. Instead, it was an ability within the domain of time.
In the eyes of others, he left no trace at all.
Even Mephisto, a Hell Lord, failed to react.
He had just finished communicating with Shuma-Gorath.
A transparent longsword had already pierced into his body.
Along with it came all kinds of astonishing forces, as if they were about to blow his body apart.
For a moment, Mephisto was terrified beyond belief.
He had created so many layers of protection, yet they had not worked at all?
"Shuma-Gorath, save me!"
"I know you still have other methods!"
"If I die, don't think the two of you can get carried away!"
As Mephisto used infernal power to strengthen and protect himself, he shouted toward Shuma-Gorath.
Shuma-Gorath looked over as well.
Karl had driven the Rift-Cleaving Blade into Mephisto's body.
At the same time, he was still continuously mobilizing energy, using it to devour Mephisto's insides in a frenzy.
Outside his body, Karl's magic did not stop either, launching attack after attack at Mephisto.
After only a few more seconds, Mephisto was already in danger.
"Damn it!"
"That useless trash can't even hold on for this short amount of time."
Shuma-Gorath cursed inwardly.
He also understood that if one of them fell, the others would be next. Naturally, he could not allow Mephisto to die like this.
The enormous eye at the center of his body widened.
Three unusual tentacles emerged from his body and writhed across his flesh. In an instant, they connected to Mephisto.
Shuma-Gorath did not hesitate at all.
Strange incantations faintly echoed through the surroundings.
His immense mental force surged like a tide, wave after wave.
As he continuously chanted the mysterious incantation, the three unusual tentacles on his body actually began to change.
They gradually transformed into the shapes of three people.
Mental-force threads, invisible to ordinary beings, directly linked the three of them together.
"Trinity!"
Shuma-Gorath shouted.
Invisible ripples flashed through cosmic space.
A powerful connection was established between the three of them.
"Kill him!"
"You are immortal now!"
Shuma-Gorath shouted loudly.
Trinity was an art that came from a certain powerful god.
It allowed the three of them to share their life force.
They would bear damage together.
As long as one of the three was still alive, they would never die.
This was an extremely advanced spell array.
However, in order to save Mephisto, there was no other choice.
As for Mephisto.
After sensing mental force and another mysterious power appear in his body out of nowhere, an excited expression appeared on his face.
"Kid, you enjoyed hitting me just now, didn't you?"
"Now it's my turn!"
Mephisto gave a savage laugh.
His body expanded rapidly like an inflated balloon.
In a short amount of time, he reached over a thousand meters in size, standing like a mountain peak.
His enormous palm, vast enough to blot out the sky, smashed toward Karl like a mountain.
There was no medium in outer space.
Naturally, there was no air resistance either.
Even though Mephisto's body was enormous, Karl only felt as though a wall that covered the sky had appeared before him, as if it meant to crush him alive.
Karl did not panic in the slightest. A smile appeared on his face.
"Interesting."
"Even at this point, your power can still multiply."
"This world really is filled with miracles."
After sighing in admiration, a Spatial Blade appeared in Karl's hand.
Karl did not merely possess Spatial Magic.
He had also grasped one of the most powerful laws in this world: the Law of Space.
When used for movement, the Law of Space made him incomparably agile.
When used for attack, it was even more absurdly powerful.
Karl merely wiped his hand across the Rift-Cleaving Blade.
A faint glow immediately spread across it, and its power became even more extraordinary.
Immense mental force spread outward.
The Rift-Cleaving Blade in his hand suddenly expanded, then slashed forward.
If Mephisto's enlarged arm was like a mountain range, then Karl's Rift-Cleaving Blade was like a primordial war-god's axe, capable of cutting through anything.
Edge met edge. Force met force.
The two mighty powers collided directly.
Their collision triggered an extremely powerful reaction.
The surrounding energy seemed to turn into a tidal wave, forming massive surges one after another.
Even the naturally existing laws of the universe, the very foundation of this world, began to tremble.
At the center of this star system, the battered sun was also on the verge of collapse.
Under the devastation caused by Karl and Mephisto's immense power, it directly reached the end of its long life.
The star that should have existed for tens of billions of years exploded just like that.
In outer space, it formed stream after stream of shockwave-like ripples.
And those were merely the aftershocks of their battle.
At the center of their clash, it was even more like a great cosmic collapse. All things were extinguished, and everything seemed as if it were about to cease existing.
Even the universe itself seemed to waver.
Seeing this, Mephisto was shocked, and his mind reeled in disbelief.
The combined power of the three of them had still failed to take down this kid?
How was that possible?
Was this kid a living Ancient God?
They were not weaklings.
Even Kaluu, who had become a black hole, was a major powerhouse who could contend with the Ancient One.
Now, the strength of the three of them had been combined through some mysterious bond.
And yet, they had only fought Karl to a draw?
What kind of joke was this?
That strike should have killed even a Single-Universe-level existence outright!
Mephisto was horrified beyond belief.
Karl's face, however, was filled with excitement.
"I understand now."
"You can't perfectly control the power of all three of you."
"There are weaknesses in your attack."
"You can't control Shuma-Gorath's will!"
Karl spoke with great excitement.
For the strong, the most powerful thing would always be their will.
Their attacks all carried their own will.
That was what allowed their power to condense without dispersing, making it unmatched.
And now.
He had seen the weakness in Mephisto's attack!
