The more he used this ability, the more they decreased their power in stopping Theo's World Re-Creation.
Not long after, the power was low enough that the World Re-Creation could be activated again.
Without hesitation, Theo reactivated the ability and started to split them. Loki used his ability to let him see the distance between them in the illusion, so Theo could put the same amount of distance to make them think what they saw was real.
Theo obviously cooperated with him.
As soon as the gap in reality was the same as the one in illusion, Loki jumped forth, positioning himself between the slime and the Time God.
With Loki blocking the Time God, the trio could fight the slime without worrying about interference.
The Heavenly Sovereign positioned himself behind Loki so that the slime didn't move in his direction, disturbing the other fight.
On the other hand, Theo approached him from the other side while his clone moved to the back of the slime. Last but not least, the Goddess of Death took the original position. They now surrounded the slime in all directions.
"Do you think you can defeat me? Even if you are strong, you are not strong enough!" The slime merged with the second body, strengthening himself.
At the same time, a few tentacles emerged from the ground. All four of them had their fair share of tentacles.
The Heavenly Sovereign snapped his fingers. Multiple trigrams appeared around the tentacles, creating a tower that isolated the slime. It looked like they were surrounding the tentacles like a rope tying down a few sticks together.
Because each trigram represented one element, the slime had a hard time dissolving them. Even if he had to do it, he had to remove one layer at a time.
As a result, the tentacles stopped, failing to hit either the Heavenly Sovereign or the God of Mischief.
The power the Heavenly Sovereign exerted was far stronger than Loki in his form. In that instant, he knew that the Heavenly Sovereign in front of him was genuine. He wasn't like the cheap copy from earlier.
This was the real 2nd ranked person in the world's list, the Heavenly Sovereign, Feng Hao.
"Come. No matter how many things you throw at me, I will show you that I'm not someone you can easily defeat."
Similar to the Heavenly Sovereign, the Goddess of Death was planning to overwhelm the slime as well.
At the same time as the slime emerged from the ground, a huge skeletal hand came out and grabbed them.
Then, a pair of red eyes flashed in the darkness beneath the ground as it cracked the ground. The whole upper body came out, grabbing the tentacles.
The skeletal hand was releasing a black-colored Magic Power while the slime was utilizing its Dissolve power.
The skeletal hand started to melt, but the slime seemed to be underestimating the power of Death.
The black-colored Magic Power might get dissolved and dispersed around, but because of it, the Magic Power ended up shrouding the tentacles.
The Magic Power that carried the power of Death started to enter the slime.
To the slime's surprise, the tentacles began to wither.
"!!!" The slime felt something was wrong with the withered tentacles. The feeling he had might not be similar to when Theo used his ability, but he certainly lost his connection with the tentacles.
It was no wonder that Hel was the Goddess of Death, and became one of the most feared and strongest gods in the mythology. Her power was far stronger than her peers.
Although she used a fair amount of Magic Power and had a hard time causing the slime to wither away, her power still managed to erase the slime. Now that she worked together with Theo, there was a possibility that they were going to kill him for good.
Meanwhile, both Theo and the clone already knew what they had to do. Both of them used the Inverted World to suppress the incoming tentacles.
And seeing the Heavenly Sovereign gave him some inspiration.
Instead of using the Death Avatar like Hel, Theo used his Irregular Guardian and the Mirage World to create multiple strings imbued with multiple elements. He gathered the tentacles in a single spot and erased all of them at once. This method was more effective than the previous one. Though, it required more Magic Power.
The slime didn't expect that he would suffer this much from just a single attack. But it also helped him measure his opponents' strength.
"It's no wonder that you three are confident, especially that guy with multiple elements. The cheap copy is not as strong as you… I guess your title as the second strongest guy on the list is deserved."
The Heavenly Sovereign shrugged. "Well, thanks."
Theo chuckled and used this chance to provoke the slime. "Look at the slime. He didn't talk a lot previously. I guess he understands the idiom, the louder the bark, the smaller the bite."
"Hahahaha! Nice one, Theo!" Feng Hao laughed out loud before asking the slime with a tone full of mockery. "What's next? Are you going to say that you're not a bad slime?"
The slime wobbled once as if it was startled by their reaction. But the silence that came after that felt like it was gathering his anger, ready to release it at once.
Of course, the Goddess of Death wasn't planning to allow him to do that. The skeleton formed a scythe and swung it at the slime's body.
Severing Soul Scythe.
The scythe cut through the slime, but surprisingly, the Goddess of Death didn't receive any feeling from it.
"!!!" The Goddess of Death widened her eyes and raised her head, realizing what happened. After all, some parts of the scythe had begun to melt.
"As a slime, I can shape my body however I want. I simply reshape my body to match your scythe. You didn't hit me with that swing." The slime's voice increased as a few eruptions of red slime occurred all around them. Filled with anger, he stated, "And you three shall be the first people who will die in this conquest to wipe the entire human race."
