Carius's body didn't fully exist in the same spatial plane as the battlefield. To bypass a Nullite's negation, one must not be within space, but beside it.
Carius had split the fabric of his presence, half a step outside normal space, existing in a state where the Nullite negation couldn't reach, because it had no space to suppress.
His form shimmered subtly, reality bending around him like water disturbed by an invisible force. Each movement left faint spatial echoes.
But regardless, Carius was still vulnerable against physical attacks.
And Karn was nothing but physical might.
Their clash continued, colossal and unrelenting.
Each blow between them sent shockwaves strong enough to crumble what was left of the ruined island beneath.
Yet Carius was nothing if not cunning.
He knew the Nullite's greatest strength was their ability to negate.
And while the ambient mana limited his space manipulation, it didn't eliminate it.
It just made him more creative.
His eyes flashed.
