"This... How is this possible?!"
The same sentence flashed through the minds of both Death Gods, Karls, and their eyes were filled with terror, as if they had encountered the most unbelievable thing in the world.
At this moment, everything around seemed to have been paused, falling into a deathly silence.
No matter how frantically they called for the clock, it was like throwing a stone into the sea; they received no response whatsoever.
A terrifying thought began to grow and spread like a demon in their minds—time had stopped!
"Time! He's manipulating time! How is that possible?!"
The two Death Gods, Karl, had exactly the same inner monologue, while Lu Renjia simply looked at them coldly, offering no explanation.
In his view, even if they explained it, they would still be unable to comprehend this phenomenon that defies common sense.
Lu Renjia slowly walked towards Karl, the God of Death from 1,200 years ago, a ruthless glint in his eyes.
He suddenly raised his foot and kicked the other man hard in the groin with all his might.
It's important to know that at this moment, Death God Karl, without the protection of his phantom body, still had a male physical structure.
Once lost, he will forever remain an incomplete being, like a castrated eunuch.
He harbored ulterior motives towards Morgana, but he only had lustful thoughts without the courage to act on them. Keeping that thing around is useless for a guy like that.
"Snap!"
A crisp yet chilling sound rang out, and Death God Karl's most important part was finally and mercilessly crushed.
He always harbored that secret fantasy, even after becoming a phantom, when he had very little ability left in that area.
But that was his last solace, and he never revealed it to anyone.
However, this last hope, like a fragile bubble, has now been utterly shattered beneath Lu Renjia's feet.
But this was just the beginning. In front of Karl, the Grim Reaper of this era, Lu Renjia began to take even more cruel actions.
He slowly performed the torture of skinning and dismembering on Karl, the Grim Reaper from 1200 years ago.
His technique was so skillful it was chilling; it took him less than fifteen minutes.
The once sacred body of the God of Death, Karna, 1,200 years ago was sliced into hundreds of pieces, like fish fillets.
At this moment, the blood also stopped flowing because time had stopped, making the whole scene even more eerie and terrifying.
Karl, the Grim Reaper of this era, witnessed all of this and was horrified.
Although he no longer had a human face, it was not hard to see from the black mist that his inner fear had reached its peak.
After performing this series of cruel acts in front of Death Karl, it was a form of revenge for his sixth brother's actions.
He once drove Lu Renjia to his death, so it's reasonable for Lu Renjia to kill him.
Finally, he raised a dagger high and plunged it into the head of Karl, the Grim Reaper from 1,200 years ago, with a "thud".
Even after suffering such a severe blow, due to the time stop, Death Karl still did not feel any pain and remained conscious.
It all felt like a nightmare, yet it was unfolding right before my eyes.
After doing all this, Lu Renjia pushed his "masterpiece" aside as if it were trash, letting the Grim Reaper Karl, who had turned into black mist, continue to distance himself from his former self.
Then, he walked to the side, sat down, and gently waved his hand, releasing the state of time stop.
In an instant, the torrent of time surged forth once more.
The phantom Death God Karl was stunned for a moment, then his body transformed back into human form. Immediately afterward, a piercing pain surged through his lower body like a raging tide.
It was a kind of pain that felt like his soul was being burned. His body fell uncontrollably to the ground, rolling around wildly like a fish thrown ashore.
He tried to cover his genitals with his hands, but found that it did not relieve the excruciating pain.
He opened his mouth wide, trying to scream, but could only utter broken, hoarse sounds, like the wails of demons coming from the depths of hell.
At the same time, the moment the flow of time resumed, all the damage erupted simultaneously like a volcanic eruption, as Karl, the god of death from 1200 years ago, appeared.
His body was instantly soaked in blood, and the fragments of his divine body scattered around him shone with an eerie light.
His eyes gradually became vacant, and his vitality vanished as quickly as a candle flickering in the wind.
Meanwhile, Karl, the Grim Reaper of this era, who is suffering excruciating pain, watches helplessly as his younger self, twelve hundred years ago, dies, and his body begins to show abnormalities.
"No, no, I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!"
He felt his power draining away, his body becoming transparent, as if an invisible force was erasing him from the world.
Now they're panicking because he's going to die, he really is going to die.
What a load of rubbish! Under the power of time, it's nothing but utter nonsense.
The pain, which felt like an attack on his very soul, made him wish he were dead, but he endured it nonetheless.
Because he wanted to live; he didn't want to die yet.
If we were to name the most life-loving people in the entire Super God Universe, Death God Karl would rank among the top three.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have created these illusionary bodies, claiming it was for better research into the void.
To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than being afraid of death, afraid of becoming just a small ripple in the torrent of time.
Therefore, before he had absolute power, he had been living in seclusion in the Styx Galaxy, a remote part of the known universe.
Because he was afraid of dying, he always played the role of the chess player behind the scenes.
If Lu Renjia hadn't appeared, he might have truly been able to stand at the pinnacle of the Super God Universe through his scientific research.
However, Lu Renjia is not one to play by the rules, and now he's flipping the table and refusing to play anymore.
No matter how well you play chess, without a chessboard you have nothing.
He thought he was in control of everything, but little did he know that he was the frog in the well and the bird in the cage.
Without absolute strength to back you up, everything is just wishful thinking.
Death God Karl panicked and crawled to Lu Renjia's feet like a dog.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, just let me live, I'd be willing to be a dog."
"Please, please!"
At this moment, Death God Karl was like a lapdog, fawning over Lu Renjia, completely losing his previous "above you" attitude.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Lu Renjia instantly dispelled the dimensional barrier, allowing Nasus and the beast warriors outside to take in the scene inside the room.
Karl, the god of death who was so revered in their hearts, was now kneeling at Lu Renjia's feet like a dog, licking his boots.
It sounds like it's just about surviving.
That disheveled appearance was completely different from the haughty demeanor they usually saw.
Nasus was the most shocked, after all, he had personally experienced the power of Kael'thas.
Yet, this powerful person was utterly humble in front of another.
"This...this can't be real?!"
To prove it was fake, it even put some boogers in its own ears, only to find it extremely painful.
Everything I saw was real.
Then the beast warriors immediately started talking all at once, spewing insults at Death God Karl, completely forgetting that he was the one who created them.
Seeing this, Lu Renjia looked at him with a mocking expression and said.
"What, do you still want to live now?"
