The interior of the Stonecore is intricate and complex, but fortunately, Jiang Jie, Anveena, and Therazane all have the ability to control the earth. By simply releasing their mental energy, they were able to figure out the entire structure of the Stonecore.
Soon, they encountered a second earth elemental:
Slabhide.
The Old Gods amplified Deathwing's power as the Earth-Warder, making it easy for him to enslave Slabhide to serve the Twilight's Hammer.
Dragons are actually the flesh and blood products of elemental creatures, and there are many kinds, such as storm dragons, proto-dragons, Proto-Dragon, and of course, rock dragons.
It's not just the Dragon Aspects.
Among these dragons, there are many powerful beings. The number of Legendary and Demigod in this world is far greater than many people imagine.
At least the Slabhide before us, in terms of size alone, is only at the level of an average adult dragon of a relatively old age. It is much smaller than Krasus and Itharius, and at most at the same level as Farad, but it wields energy that surpasses theirs.
Its age may even be older than the Red Dragon Queen.
The strength of the Dragon Aspects lies in the power bestowed upon them by the Titans, which the Rock Dragons do not possess. Therefore, a Rock Dragon of the same age is far inferior to Dragon Aspects.
But the Slabhide is different.
It gained the favor of Deathwing and received the power of the Old Gods, so it was naturally stronger, even reaching the level of High-tier Legendary, no less than Krasus or Eranikus.
But compared to Jiang Jie, they were still no match.
Another earth elemental Demigod took charge of dealing with it, and Jiang Jie and the others continued forward.
Then they encountered a Stone Giants:
Ozruk.
From the very beginning of the creation of the Deepholm, Ozruk has been the Keeper of the Stonecore.
In terms of age, it is even much older than Deathwing, making it a true Demigod of the earth element.
No one knows why he remained there, but it is clear that this Keeper considered anyone who posed a threat to Deathwing a threat to Deepholm and should be eliminated.
"I'll deal with it!"
Therazane clearly knew Ozruk; in fact, Ozruk had been her servant in ancient times, but had now rebelled and joined Deathwing.
Jiang Jie and Anveena continued forward.
After eliminating a large number of earth elemental creatures, a lava lake came into view.
A giant dragon, only 150 meters long, was covered in magma and flames, scorched and held in place by pieces of Elementium Armor.
Deathwing.
More than a decade ago, he was defeated by the four Dragon Aspects, Krasus, and Rhonin, his body shattered, and he fled here.
He disappeared for over a decade, focusing solely on forging Elementium Armor to stabilize his body.
This Elementium Armor, whose value is beyond imagination, even if it is only forged into a shield, would at least be of epic quality and worth more than 100,000 gold coins.
How many Elementium Armor would be enough to cover Deathwing?
How much is it worth?
Even if you sold the entire Dalaran, you still couldn't afford it!
Such a massive amount of Elementium Bar cannot be gathered by ordinary means. Even the accumulated resources of Ironforge and Shadowforge City over hundreds of years would not amount to that much, not even a tenth of it.
Only the Earth-Warder control the power of the earth, and the earth Elemental Lords Therazane, possess this ability.
This Elementium Armor is imbued with the power of the Earth-Warder and the power of the Old Gods. Every piece is legendary, and even a random piece can rival legendary armor and shields.
How can it be defeated?
The Deathwing in this state is the most powerful Deathwing, the true the Destroyer.
Huge supports were erected from bottom to top, with countless rams striking and hammering the Elementium Armor against Deathwing before securing it with massive rivets.
A large number of earth elementals, members of the Twilight's Hammer, and Goblin are busily smelting and forging Elementium Armor.
This type of armor is very difficult to forge.
First, the materials are hard to find; second, the melting point is extremely high.
It wasn't something that could be melted by ordinary flames; only the fire of the black dragon was barely enough. Finally, complex runes had to be inscribed on it.
Extremely difficult.
So even after more than a decade, and even with thousands of people working here, it still hasn't been completed.
Jiang Jie noticed that at least a third of Deathwing's body was not covered by armor, which meant that his body was not yet fully immobilized, so he could not and dared not leave this place.
Therefore, Deathwing at this point is naturally not as powerful as he was at his peak.
He can be defeated!
Even without gathering the power of the five Dragon Kings, we can still defeat him!
Upon seeing Jiang Jie and his companions arrive, Deathwing and unleashing a massive wave of lava and flames.
He knew that now that Jiang Jie and the others had arrived, he had no chance, not even the chance to survive. So he was going to smash the Pillar of the World and cause Cataclysm!
"Enough talk, let's fight!"
Jiang Jie suddenly erupted, arriving above Deathwing's head in the blink of an eye, and then slammed his fist into Deathwing's head.
A whimper was heard, and Deathwing, which was larger than a fifty-story building, was hit on the head by this punch and almost fell!
Jiang Jie's punch was not just his own power, but also the power of the Fist of Ra-den, the power of the elements, and the power of lightning. It was a fusion of all his power, and it was his most powerful punch so far.
This punch was in no way inferior to Archimonde's.
This punch would be so powerful that even the Wild Gods might not be able to withstand it, and Tortolla's carapace would crack.
Deathwing actually withstood that punch, and only the Elementium Armor on his head deformed slightly!
His head defense, after acquiring the Elementium Armor, had actually increased to a level comparable to Tortolla's.
With his enormous size, more than ten times that of Tortolla, his strength is probably unmatched even if all the Tortolla combined.
"An existence on par with Kil'jaeden and Archimonde?"
Jiang Jie easily assessed Deathwing's strength.
He has indeed reached the pinnacle of this world, the pinnacle of Demigod, on par with Kil'jaeden, Archimonde, and Highkeeper Ra of the Black Empire.
No, even the Highkeeper Ra might not be enough.
He's even worse than the former.
After the Forge of Wills was restarted, Anveena's strength had recovered to the level of Titan Keepers, but she was still far from the peak state of the Highkeeper Ra.
In fact, there's nothing that can be done about it.
The power of the Great Guardian Ra comes from Aman'Thul, the King of the Gods, while the power of Anveena comes from Azadas and the Titan Khaz'goroth.
Khaz'goroth is certainly not qualified to be compared to Aman'Thul, and the power that Anveena received is certainly not comparable to that of the Highkeeper Ra.
But it's still different.
Anveena is actually an embodiment of the Titans Blood of Azeroth; her power is inherited from Azeroth.
So in reality, she inherited the power of two Titans.
However, the amount of Azeroth essence she has obtained so far is too small to be considered significant.
But if one day she can make contact with Azeroth and receive Azeroth blessing, then she will surely surpass the former Highkeeper Ra and reach the level of Kil'jaeden and Archimonde.
As for going any further, it's practically impossible.
The Path of the Titans leads to the High Keeper.
To become Titans- like being, one must be World-Soul born from a planet; this is innate and cannot be changed.
Unless you choose not to take this route.
Jiang Jie a different path.
boom!
Anveena transformed into a colossal Stone Giants, even larger than the former Ironaya.
Wielding the Hammer of Khaz'goroth, she struck with a blow even more powerful than Jiang Jie, smashing Deathwing's head down before her body plummeted into the lava lake below, sending lava flying everywhere.
Then came Jiang Jie.
The two worked together, punching and hammering Deathwing relentlessly until he was helpless.
He roared and wailed, but he could never get close to the Pillar of the World Pillar of the World, let alone smash it. He was completely unable to leave the lava lake.
Deathwing, today is your end!
In the distance, Neptulon, the earth Elemental Lords, arrived.
How could Deathwing and now the Earth-Warder, possibly stand against the combined might of three High-tier Demigod who wield the power of the earth?
"Master! Help me!"
Deathwing writhed in the lava, pleading for his master's help.
only...
Deeper still in the ocean City of Despair.
This magnificent dark city was once the holy city of N'Zoth in the Black Empire, far larger and more expansive Ulduar.
But today, they've encountered their mortal enemy.
Odyn and eight Titan Keepers, along with thousands of Titan-forged, surrounded the entire city.
Although the Forge of Wills has just been restarted and hasn't had time to create more Titan-forged, Ulduar already had a large number of Titan-forged, which are now being reassembled by the Titan Keepers.
The waves surged, Neptulon rode in, accompanied by the newly crowned Elemental Lord of Air, " Thunderaan ".
N'Zoth is in dire straits himself.
Even though he summoned Queen Azshara, tens of thousands of Naga, a large number of Faceless Ones, and even three Faceless Ones generals, it was still useless; he couldn't stop a full ten High-tier Demigod.
The end of the world has come.
