Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom— Deep within the Moonlit Labyrinth, fire lit up the sky as explosions echoed in every direction. Every so often, a scream would ring out before a body crumpled to the ground.
The main force of the Ancient Elves was gathered here.
They were locked in battle against the Dark Hall, but like the scattered squads, the main army was suffering devastating casualties.
It wasn't that the Ancient Elves were weaker than the Dark Hall. The problem was that the Dark Hall had several hundred Ancient Fierce Beasts fighting alongside them—several hundred Ancient Fierce Beasts, the weakest of which were Third Rank Martial Emperors, while the strongest were actually Sixth Rank Martial Emperors. Such power was truly terrifying.
Even so, the Ancient Elves fought on desperately, because fighting was their only chance of survival. If they didn't fight, their deaths would only be more agonizing.
"Hahahaha, Luokong, is that all you've got?"
The one clashing with Lord Luokong at this moment was a strikingly handsome man who spoke in an effeminate, affected tone—this was none other than the World-Destroying Immortal.
The two each wielded Emperor Armaments, and their battle raged with extraordinary ferocity. Their arena of combat stood apart from the rest, far removed from everyone else.
Their strength was simply too great, far surpassing everyone else's, and even the shockwaves from their clash would prove fatal to those nearby.
They had to stay far from the others—only then could they ensure everyone else's safety.
"World-Destroying, don't get cocky! Today, one of us dies—it's either you or me!" Lord Luokong's face was twisted with fury, his battle intent surging like a tide.
The moment they had entered this place, they had been ambushed by the Dark Hall. The Dark Hall also had the Ancient Fierce Beasts at their side, and though the beasts numbered only a few hundred, each one was extraordinarily powerful. From the very start, they had been at a disadvantage.
As a result, the formation eye they had sought to protect had been seized by the Dark Hall before they could intervene, and they had failed to prevent the Dark Hall from activating the killing formation through it.
Not only had they failed to stop the Dark Hall from activating the killing formation, but now they were on the verge of total annihilation.
"No, no, no, you're wrong. There will only be one outcome today—everyone who isn't part of my Dark Hall will die. Heh heh heh heh…"
The World-Destroying Immortal laughed with wild arrogance, for in his mind, with the formation eye successfully activated, everyone who had been lured into the Moonlit Labyrinth was surely dead by now.
All that remained was to wipe out the Ancient Elves, and their great work would be complete.
And when it came to wiping out the Ancient Elves, he was one hundred percent confident.
"Big words from a dying man!" Lord Luokong bellowed, intensifying his assault on the World-Destroying Immortal.
"Big words? Take a look around you. How much longer can your Ancient Elves hold out?" the World-Destroying Immortal taunted.
Hearing this, Lord Luokong's figure shot backward, and he swept his gaze across the surrounding battlefield. What he saw made not only his aged face twitch, but his very heart tremble.
It was tragic—truly tragic. Though he had not led the Ancient Elves' most elite forces here, the troops he had brought were still formidable.
Yet of those Ancient Elf armies, casualties now exceeded ninety percent. Nearly everyone below the rank of Martial Emperor who could die had already died.
Meanwhile, the Dark Hall and the Ancient Fierce Beasts had lost less than half their numbers. The gap between the two sides was growing wider and wider. They truly had no chance of victory.
"Damn it all! I will destroy you today, no matter what!" Lord Luokong roared in a frenzy, his surging killing intent so violent that the void itself cracked apart.
Then, with a sweep of his robes, layer upon layer of emerald-green spiritual light emanated from within his body, and the Emperor Armament in his hand blazed with even greater might, transforming into visible tidal waves of martial power that crashed toward the World-Destroying Immortal one after another.
