"Ah!"
The Celestial let out a scream.
That shrill cry crossed an unknown distance and rang out through the entire Multiverse.
Karl had gathered the strongest power within his body.
This was the reforging of his path of magic and its mysteries.
It was his understanding of the world.
It also carried his own formidable will.
Why were these so-called laws and origins so powerful?
Because the will behind them was powerful.
When different people used the same law, the power they displayed could be worlds apart.
Could the same law truly have different grades?
Of course not.
The difference lay in the person.
People had differences in strength and weakness, and their understanding of laws was different.
Naturally, the power they released would also be completely different.
How terrifying was Karl's psychic power?
How formidable was his God-Tier Talent?
How frightening was his understanding of laws?
All of that understanding, all of that will, was poured into a single move.
Its power could easily be imagined.
Even the most ancient gods in this world could not withstand that unyielding force.
The Celestial's defense was broken outright.
A huge cavity appeared in his chest.
Karl could even see what lay behind him through that enormous hole.
The Celestials used all their strength, trying to drive out the power Karl had left inside them and repair their injuries.
But even the remaining power was like parasites clinging to bone.
It continued to coil around their chest, constantly damaging them.
Under that terrifying power, the Celestial became extremely weak.
"What's wrong? Not as imposing as you were a moment ago?"
"Weren't you acting very arrogant earlier?"
Karl said calmly.
The Celestials did not want to respond at all.
They had to expel the energy in their body as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, they would have no power to resist.
The primordial gods and totems of the Marvel universe were not just empty titles.
They possessed unimaginable power.
To some extent, they also possessed the ability to alter reality.
They also had concept-level abilities.
On top of that, this Celestial was the combined will of several individuals, making its willpower far stronger than their original separate wills.
Under these circumstances, when their wills gathered together, the power they unleashed was not weak at all.
For a moment, they actually expelled the energy Karl had left behind.
After it was expelled, the wounds on the Celestial's body rapidly healed.
In the blink of an eye, he was restored to normal.
However, Karl knew.
On the surface, the injury had healed.
But without any time to stabilize, it was extremely fragile for them.
One blow would break it again.
"What's the point?"
"You spent all that effort just to eliminate one thirty-thousandth of my residual power."
"What are you planning to use against me?"
Karl said coldly.
Terrifying magical power emerged in both of his hands.
Multiple laws and origins fused in his palms.
A tyrannical force erupted.
Although it was far weaker than before, it still had a certain level of power.
It was not because Karl could no longer use stronger power.
Rather, he was bleeding them out slowly.
He wanted to prevent these Celestials from making a desperate last stand.
If they self-destructed, Karl felt that he could block such an attack.
However, the universe beside him might not be so lucky.
This kind of indiscriminate, terrifying attack was absolutely capable of destroying the entire universe.
Karl did not want to pay such a massive price.
While wearing them down piece by piece, he continued to provoke them verbally.
"Celestials?"
"Where did all that prestige from before go?"
"Why are you being beaten like dead dogs now?"
"Tsk, tsk. How miserable."
Karl taunted them in a cutting, mocking tone.
Even someone standing nearby could feel the provocation in his words.
He only wanted to stir up their emotions.
He could not let the Celestials realize that he was merely draining them.
Once enough time passed, even if they wanted to self-destruct, they would no longer have the power to do so.
He even took the initiative to show weakness.
He made his attacks seem slightly lacking, as if they were hollow inside.
He created the impression that the power in his body could be exhausted at any moment.
The Celestials' minds shook.
The members of the Celestials were born with immense power, capable of wiping out vast starfields and reducing countless stars to ruin.
Wherever they went, they were received with awe and respect.
When had they ever experienced so many schemes and deception?
They would never have imagined that Karl was pretending to be weak.
When they sensed Karl's power weaken, the Celestials' spirits stirred.
"His power is weakening!"
"His earlier powerful attack must have consumed too much energy!"
"He's done!"
The will of the leading Celestial transmitted through the enormous Celestial body.
The Celestials' spirits all rose.
They even took the initiative to attack and test him.
After sensing that Karl's power was indeed much weaker than before, the Celestials felt reassured.
"Good!"
"He really doesn't have enough stamina left!"
"Use our strongest power. We can kill him!"
"In that case, our losses won't be losses at all!"
The Celestials all thought this in their hearts.
Their mood changed.
Gradually, their worry turned into excitement.
They had a chance!
"Human, don't get arrogant!"
"Today, we are destined to cut you down here!"
"We will make the entire Multiverse feel the consequences of provoking the Celestials!"
The enormous Celestial roared savagely.
The roar directly stirred up a tide of energy around them.
After sensing Karl's weakness, they did not hesitate.
In an instant, they activated the strongest power that had been lying dormant within them.
The most ancient power belonging to this world!
The Celestials' origin power.
This formidable power was the original core of this world.
It was the essence from which the Multiverse was born.
It was the compressed form of the laws governing the Multiverse.
For the Celestials, this was also an extremely precious power, and they had never possessed much of it.
They had not used it before because they wanted to keep it for the critical moment when they had to preserve their lives.
But now, they felt that the time had come.
"Human, feel the greatest power in this world!"
With a furious roar, an invisible ripple spread from before them.
Karl could sense it with absolute clarity.
The rules of the surrounding world had undergone some kind of miraculous change.
In an instant, the world seemed to become something else.
Something more essential revealed itself.
It was as though a peerless beauty had stripped away every veil and appeared before Karl.
Karl could sense the mysteries of this world even more clearly.
At the same time, the Celestials' all-out attack descended along with it.
