"We need a larger battlefield, Arthas." Illidan didn't want Arthas to get too close to Tyrande, lest he harm her.
"Then let's go there!" Arthas pointed into the distance.
He also didn't want to fight here, because it was too close to the Frozen Throne and somewhat dangerous. If the Frozen Throne were destroyed, his goal would be impossible to achieve.
Arthas swung his sword, creating an ice wall that blocked the only path to the Frozen Throne. Frostmourne frost power that Frostmourne wielded here was terrifying; unless Arthas was defeated, even High-tier Legendary would find it difficult to break through this ice wall.
Because this ice wall is constantly connected to Frostmourne Frostmourne receives its power, it is virtually impossible to break unless the sword is defeated.
They quickly found a large space and fought with all their might.
" Arthas! You must pay for what you have done!" Kael'thas summoned the phoenix and charged towards Arthas, seeking revenge for the fallen High Elf.
This is a battle, a life-or-death struggle. There's no such thing as a fair one-on-one contest; eliminating the enemy is the only true victory!
" Kael! What I did? You mean sleeping with Jaina? I held her in my arms at night, and her kisses were so sweet! Kael, do you need me to describe it in detail? I remember every single moment!" Arthas's laughter rang out, unrestrained and blatant.
Kael'thas remained calm; the lowly scheme failed to move him.
He no longer cared about Jaina; what he cared about was his country and his people.
He brandished his staff, unleashing a blazing inferno towards Arthas, but it was blocked by a waterfall of ice. The great Lich Kel'Thuzad floated before him:
"Your opponent is me, Kael'thas."
He held the famous " Book of Medivh " in one hand and the " Greatstaff of Atiesh " from Antonidas in the other. His purple epic gear made him look no less impressive than Kael'thas.
In terms of absolute energy, he is stronger Kael'thas. However, in terms of spellcasting energy, even with the Book of Medivh, he has not studied it for long and has only barely reached the Legendary level, still not comparable to Kael'thas.
They are evenly matched rivals.
" Kel'Thuzad, you have been expelled from the Kirin Tor Council! So today, I will represent Dalaran purge the traitor!" Kael'thas remained calm, brandishing his staff as flames soared into the sky.
Three spheres of fire elemental energy, condensed to their maximum potential, burned on his shoulders and above his head, like the three lamps in Huaxia legend, but in reality, they were elemental flames, representing Kael'thas's strongest state.
The amount of energy the body can withstand is often limited by various factors.
The energy a mortal body can withstand is limited. The magical power of a Legendary human mage is far less than that of an ordinary adult blue dragon, such as Sapphiron. Therefore, various methods must be used to increase magical power.
For example, luxurious magical equipment and powerful magical pets are Kael'thas's choices. It was his epic magical items with Legendary enchantments and the phoenix "Ao" that propelled his magical power to its current level.
Kel'Thuzad is different.
Besides the equally luxurious magical artifacts, his Lich body was no longer that of a mortal, but rather carried more death energy, frost power, and even Arcane energy. This was the reason why he was able to possess a higher level of energy Kael'thas.
But magical power is never the most important thing; the ability to cast spells is even more important.
When Kel'Thuzad was still a mage apprentice, Kael'thas was already a member of the Kirin Tor Council and a Legendary mage.
Kel'Thuzad even took magic lessons from Kael'thas!
Therefore, when facing Kel'Thuzad, Kael'thas had a psychological advantage, like looking at a disobedient and unruly student, and always maintained a superior attitude.
As it turned out, Kael'thas's high-handed attitude was justified.
Even if Kel'Thuzad possessed a higher level of energy, and had the Book of Medivh and the Greatstaff of Atiesh,
Even with the body of a high Lich, he was still no match for Kael'thas, being overwhelmed and barely able to hold on. He immediately summoned Undead and Lich for help, but the High Elf mages quickly blocked them.
This is the true "A Song of Ice and Fire," the highest-level confrontation between ice and fire on a mortal level.
At this point, the others also started to move.
The Crypt Fiend charged forward, led by their king Anub'arak, and two Nerubians lords: the Krik'thir the Gatewatcher and Elder Nadox.
One High-tier Legendary creature and two ordinary Nerubians lords, slightly inferior to Anub'Rekhan, did not qualify for the Legendary category.
Even the Nerubian race, which rules the underground kingdom of Northrend, doesn't have many Legendary creatures; three or five is the limit.
"Aww!!"
With a wild roar that echoed throughout Icecrown Citadel, a giant brown bear, three meters tall, appeared before the Nerubians —it was Malfurion.
As he said, the Druid's power is not just about restoration and balance, but also about wildness and protection.
Although not known for his Animal Form, he actually possesses the strongest Animal Form of all Druid, bar none.
When Malfurion truly entered battle mode, even Anub'arak stopped his Charge. The Nerubians rushing forward were all swatted away by Malfurion with a single claw strike!
Krik'thir the Gatewatcher charging at the forefront, was no smaller Malfurion, but he was no match for Malfurion's Charge. He couldn't even withstand a single slap and was sent flying. His Mind Flay were meaningless against Malfurion's Demigod -like mental power, and his sticky webs were completely unable to contain the Legendary Malfurion.
The gatekeeper lay sprawled in the distance, convulsing and struggling, but he could not rise no matter what he did, for his carapace was shattered, both his legs were broken, and he was powerless to resist.
With a roar, the giant bear-man stood up and frantically pounded his chest.
As the green light appeared, layer upon layer of thorns wrapped around the giant bear's body, quickly forming a thick, thorny armor. Inside the thorn armor was a thick layer of tree bark.
The giant bear's human-like eyes were fixed on the Crypt Lord's even larger body.
The implication is quite clear:
"Forget about anyone else, your opponent is me! I am the opponent of all you Crypt Fiend!"
Life and death are natural enemies.
The Undead are representatives of death, and naturally, representatives of life.
Beneath the Frozen Throne, the air is thick with dense, impenetrable death energy. Natural energy is suppressed to its limit, leaving almost no trace of it. Consequently, Malfurion's power is also suppressed to its absolute limit.
He couldn't summon the Treant because there were no trees here.
He could not summon starlight, moonlight, or sunlight because the ice coffin dome isolated him from everything, and he was not one of the Moon Goddess's chosen people.
He even struggled to communicate with the Emerald Dream, because the Lich King's spiritual power interfered with him.
Malfurion couldn't even unleash one-tenth of his peak power, let alone half of his normal strength.
Even in this state, Malfurion still has the ability to go toe-to-toe with High-tier Legendary Crypt Lord; this kind of strength is truly terrifying.
Anub'arak let out a sharp, unintelligible roar, his entire body charging towards Malfurion like a tank several times larger. The Legendary Archdruid, not to be outdone, chose the wildest confrontation, his massive body also charging Charge. The battle between the two land beasts was now in full swing.
Their sizes are on completely different levels; Anub'arak is clearly three times larger.
However, in terms of raw power, they are almost the same, because Malfurion received the blessing of the bear demigod Usol Usok, and his bear form possesses extraordinary power far exceeding his physical size.
The battle of pure savagery has begun!
