The two lord-level experts, who were engaged in a life-and-death struggle, exchanged a smile.
They were not like those lord-level individuals who relied on spiritual medicine and resources to reach this stage. Their journey to this point had been built upon the accumulation of time, personal effort, and countless battles!
At their age and level of cultivation, they had long since come to see life and death with indifference; the only thing they couldn't let go of was their descendants. Their sons and grandsons were the very reasons they fought today.
Now, walking this path together felt like the best ending for them!
They could leave behind an explanation for their descendants, and for themselves, there was also a sense of closure.
Thus, instead of feeling despair, they felt a sense of relief and freedom. Finally... it would come to an end!
Then they laughed heartily and struck at each other's throats with a single palm...
At that moment, both of their bodies twitched and then fell still.
Four lord-level experts were locked in a frenzied battle with the last three lord-level experts of the Stone Family! Even if they had to die, they would take an enemy down with them! One after another, they fell, but they would drag at least one down with them!
Such a terrifying mindset and brutal slaughter made every spectator tremble!
Lord-level experts were supposed to move gracefully through the air like immortals, and even if they died in battle, there would be an aesthetic beauty to it.
But now, it was entirely different!
From the very beginning, it was a gruesome massacre.
As the battle progressed, severed limbs and broken arms flew through the sky.
The three lord-level experts of the Stone Family were in an extremely difficult position!
They didn't want to fight to the death! They weren't as open-minded as the Tian Family, the Butcher Family, and the Li Family. They were just here to help; who won or lost had nothing to do with them...
Moreover, they had come for more than just assistance; there were other matters at stake...
With such a mindset, fighting against the desperate four lord-level experts was a miserable affair. They could only defend and dared not attack!
Because every time they attacked, they gave the enemy an opportunity to counterattack!
These four madmen were even capable of paying with their own lives to take down an opponent's arm... to that extent!
Was this still a human battle?
The three lord-level experts felt completely helpless; even when fighting against the Three Star Holy Clan or battling against spirit beast tides, it had never been this brutal...
Yet, in the decisive battle, there was no opportunity to retreat or surrender!
This was the Desperate Lake!
It was a place of standard decisive battles, supervised by enforcers, with supreme divine thought enveloping it! The only way to end the battle was for one side to be entirely wiped out!
No death, no rest! Thanks to the desperate defense of that fourth-tier lord-level expert, they barely maintained the balance of the fight.
But it was clearly not sustainable.
"What should we do?" One lord-level expert asked anxiously while hurriedly fending off enemy attacks.
"What do you mean what to do?! Kill them!" The leading lord-level expert was filled with pent-up frustration. Damn it, if this ever happened again, I would run as far away as I could.
Damn it, I thought coming to the Middle Three Heavens would be like catching snails with five fingers or playing the tiger among monkeys. Who would have thought I'd have to pay with my life?
This world is truly too strange...
"But how do we kill them..." The questioning lord-level expert was on the verge of tears. It's easy for you to say, but I know very well that killing them is the only way to escape this predicament! But the problem is... how can we kill them without paying a price?
"Just kill them however you can!" The leading Stone Family lord-level expert was distracted for just a moment and almost got pierced by four long swords simultaneously. Terrified, he cursed and fell silent, focusing on the enemy.
