Hum!
In front of Gray, a small black ball appeared and collided with the destructive shockwave.
Puff!
The shockwave seemed to have been penetrated and dissipated as the small black ball slammed into the burly middle-aged man.
At the point of collision, a huge spatial hole appeared. There was no wild wind because before the wind could wreak havoc, it had been sucked in by the spatial hole.
In the collision between the two, the small black ball's power was clearly superior!
As a matter that did not belong to this world formed by the fusion of Time Law and Space Law, the small black ball was special and had extremely destructive power. Very few law abilities of the same level could compare to it.
The reason why it had not been shown before was that in every battle, Gray had always fought with someone of a higher realm with a lower realm. But this time, it was a battle of the same realm.
Bang!
The burly middle-aged man punched out, sending the greatly weakened small black ball flying. Gray did not have time to follow up with another attack because on the other side, the man in chainmail's attack had already arrived.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the void to Gray's left, silver chains shot out like javelins, piercing straight at Gray.
Gray's heart stirred, and a spatial barrier appeared in that direction, blocking the silver chains.
As a law powerhouse, the man in chainmail could naturally see the spatial barrier. Seeing the spatial barrier, a strange smile appeared on his face.
The next moment, the silver chains hit the spatial barrier and released silver light.
Following that, the originally extremely sturdy spatial barrier actually couldn't hold on for even a moment before collapsing. It was as fragile as a bubble, and the silver chain pierced straight towards Gray without any hindrance.
Whoosh!
In the nick of time, Gray teleported and appeared several miles away. Looking at the silver chains that had completely pierced through him, his eyes revealed a look of realization.
"It really is the Magic Seal Law!"
After two collisions, he finally confirmed his guess. This law ability was the Magic Seal Law.
The Magic Seal Law was a very unique and special law. It had the characteristic of 'Magic Seal'. Any ability that came into contact with the body of the law would lose its effectiveness.
An ability that could nullify one's abilities was definitely an unsolvable ability. The only drawback was that this ability required physical contact in order to gain the ability to nullify magic.
However, the ability of the man in mail armor was obviously different. He didn't need physical contact, so Gray wasn't sure before.
However, just now, even the spatial barrier with absolute defense had been easily penetrated. He was finally sure that what the other party possessed was indeed the Magic Seal Law.
The reason why there was no need for physical contact should be due to the fusion of the Magic Seal law and the Chain law. The Magic Seal characteristic had been extended, and the silver chain also had the Magic Seal characteristic.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The silver chain once again attacked Gray. In front of Gray, the small pitch-black ball that had already returned shot out rapidly.
Ding, ding, ding!
The pitch-black ball continuously changed directions, knocking away the silver chains one after another. But in the next moment, the silver chains all emitted a silver-white light, wrapping around the pitch-black ball from all directions.
The pitch-black ball could no longer display the same destructive power as before. It was as if it had sunk into a quagmire, becoming slower and slower. In the end, it was wrapped by the silver chains, crushed, and shattered.
Meanwhile, the silver chains changed directions, attacking Gray from all directions like silver snakes.
At the same time, Saint Walter of the Earth Temple arrived.
With a punch, terrifying pitch-black shockwaves spread across half the sky, attacking Gray from behind.
Swish!
Teleporting to avoid the encirclement, Gray looked at the two of them with a cautious expression.
'If I hadn't comprehended laws, I would probably have to teleport away again like last time when facing the two of them working together!'
Saint Walter of the Earth Temple was not weak. In terms of battle prowess, he was only slightly weaker than Saint Rudolph of the Basilica of the Holy Blood.
As for the chain-mail man, due to his special ability, he was even stronger than Saint Walter of the Earth Temple.
The Magic Seal Law could render the opponent's abilities ineffective, while the Chain Law could bestow offensive and binding abilities. Coupled with the Chain Law's' sturdy characteristic 'that made it difficult to break through, the other party's battle prowess could be said to be unrivalled among veteran experts of laws.
This was probably why Saint Walter of the Earth Temple had asked him to help ambush him. But he was rather curious. Was Saint Walter of the Earth Temple not afraid of a backlash and taking all the Earth Vein Fruits for himself?
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Swish! The silver chains once again attacked like snakes, and a cold light appeared in Gray's eyes.
"Do you really think I can't do anything to the Magic Seal Law?"
"Strengthen … it …"
The Law of Curse was activated, and a blood-red light enveloped Gray. His basic abilities as a veteran expert of laws were immediately boosted.
"Sun Sword!"
With the appearance of the Sun Sword, Gray's abilities of laws were boosted once more.
At this moment, his battle prowess was twice as strong as before. An unprecedented feeling of power filled his body and mind.
Hum!
The pitch-black ball appeared. No, it could no longer be called a pitch-black ball, as it had grown to the size of a soccer ball.
Not only that, but the method of controlling it had also undergone a qualitative change, becoming even more varied.
Swish!
A moment later, the pitch-black ball transformed into a sword, a pitch-black sword.
Clang!
A sharp aura was revealed, as if it was a true divine weapon. Under this sharpness, cracks appeared in space.
Thwish!
The pitch-black sword pierced through space, turning into a black streak of light as it stabbed at the chain-armored man.
"Danger …"
The chain-armored man clearly sensed the danger. Ignoring Gray, all his silver chains erupted with silver light as they met the pitch-black sword.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ding! Under the impact of the silver chains, the pitch-black sword did not seem to sink into a quagmire like the pitch-black ball. Instead, one silver chain after another was shattered, as if the Magic Seal Law had disappeared.
Very soon, all the silver chains shattered, and there was no longer any obstruction between the pitch-black sword and the chain-armored man.
"Not good!"
The saint from the Earth Temple, Walter, who was about to circle around and attack Gray, cried out in surprise. From the other side, a fist containing the laws of darkness and curse punched out. Pitch-black ripples spread across half the sky, blocking the path of the pitch-black sword.
Pu!
It was still unable to block it. The pitch-black shockwaves were penetrated by the pitch-black sword, and the pitch-black sword went straight for the chain-armored man.
The chain-armored man's heart thumped wildly. He quickly moved to the side, narrowly avoiding the pitch-black sword's thrust.
However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, Walter's anxious voice rang out.
"Careful!"
Pu!
A black light flashed, and his right hand was severed at the wrist. Blood spurted out like a sprinkler, but it was not water but blood.
Only now did the power of the pitch-black sword completely dissipate, and it was pulled back to Gray by an invisible force.
"Why did the Magic Seal Law … lose its effect?"
Walter quickly moved to the side, shielding the injured chain-armored man behind him as he asked in bewilderment.
"No, the Magic Seal Law didn't lose its effect. It's just that his battle prowess suddenly increased greatly, and it's already exceeded the limits of what can be removed!"
The chain-armored man covered his severed arm with cold sweat as he spoke gravely.
The Laws of Magic Seal had not disappeared. He was very sure of this. Only his Laws of Magic Seal could make other abilities disappear, and no other ability could make his Laws of Magic Seal disappear.
However, the power of the pitch-black sword was just too great. It had surpassed the Magic Seal by a large margin. While the Magic Seal was still effective to a certain extent, it was unable to completely erase the power of the pitch-black sword.
"Just how did your Earth Holy Hall provoke such a monster?"
He looked at Saint Walter of the Earth Temple with some resentment.
He had agreed to work together to deal with Gray partly because of the temptation of the Earth Vein Fruit, and partly because Walter had once saved his life.
However, now that the Earth Holy Hall had provoked such a terrifying monster and caused him to be in such danger, he had already repaid his debt.
If he could survive this time, he would definitely distance himself from Walter. However, the prerequisite was that he could survive.
"Absolute power can indeed break the Laws!"
Looking at the pitch-black sword that had returned to his side, Gray nodded in satisfaction.
Laws were mysterious and powerful, and had the ability to restrain each other. If one's own Laws could restrain the opponent's Laws, then victory was basically assured. However, absolute power could also break the Laws and break the restraints of the Laws.
The battle with Basilica of the Holy Blood had made him realize that great power could break the Laws.
Originally, with Basilica of the Holy Blood's Laws, Rudolph should have been restrained by his spatial maze. However, Rudolph had broken the spatial maze with his absolute power.
Clang!
The pitch-black sword once again emitted a sharp aura that could even shatter space as it prepared to attack again.
"Sir, we admit defeat. The Earth Vein Fruit is yours. All of the Earth Vein Fruits are yours!"
Faced with Gray, whose strength had increased explosively, the Saint of the Earth Holy Temple, Walter, knew that he had no chance of winning.
"The Earth Vein Fruit is naturally mine. Not just the Earth Vein Fruit, but your lives are also mine!"
Gray revealed a cold smile. If they had not ambushed him, he would have at most snatched the Earth Vein Fruit that had been exchanged with Shadow 11's life. He would not have done anything to them.
However, since the other party had already ambushed him, he naturally would not let the other party go. After staying in this space-time for more than five years, he already understood that the necessary killing would instead be like cutting the Gordian knot, reducing the influence of this space-time.
If he let them off today, they might find more helpers and trigger another series of battles. This would have an even greater influence on this space-time.
