Talisman Emperor
Chapter 1859 – Last Day
On the 25th day of the third month.
Only five days remained until the first round was over.
The atmosphere in the Dao Cauldron World was tense to the extreme. Even in the outside world, many cultivators were filled with anxiety, and felt oppressed to the verge of suffocating.
At this point, all the disciples lucky enough to remain in the World Dao Cauldron were experts among experts. They all had unparalleled strength, and they were like geniuses leading the era.
At the same time, the situation within the World Dao Cauldron was very clear a long time ago, and it was not difficult to even find an opponent like in the previous days.
All of this was due to the Ancient Dao Engraved Cauldron.
This treasure could not be pushed aside, and the hidden aura of the Dao it emitted could not be hidden at all. So, when one carried it when one moved in the World Dao Cauldron, it was like carrying a beacon under the night sky. Not only would one be unable to hide one's song, it would even attract many greedy gazes.
Currently, the 25 cauldrons had been split between the five great powers, and this meant that when these disciples moved, it was very easy for them to be noticed by the others.
Under such circumstances, conflict and battle were completely unavoidable.
Even to the point that one could tell that an extremely intense battle erupted almost every day in the World Dao Cauldron!
…
Something worth mentioning was that the battle between Li Lufeng's group and Donghuang Yinxuan's group erupted on the 25th day of the third month, and it attracted the attention of all cultivators in the outside world.
After the battle with Chen Xi and Kong Youran, the group from the Dao Institute still had 18 members. Unfortunately, such a power did not have much advantage anymore.
During the recent period of time, the group from the Dao Institute led by Li Lufeng had experienced many battles, and some were lost when some were won. So, at this point in time, only 14 were left when Li Lufeng was included.
On the other hand, when Donghuang Yinxuan was included, the Divine Institute group consisted of 13 Powerseal Disciples. Although it seemed like their group had one disciple inferior to the Dao Institute, if it was in terms of true combat power, then they were even superior to the Dao Institute.
The reason is very simple. The Divine Institute group not only had Donghuang Yinxuan, and there were figures like Zhu Qianyu and Gongsun Mu among them as well.
On the other hand, the Dao Institute group only had Li Lufeng. Even though the other disciples had incredible combat power as well, none of them could compare to existences like Gongsun Mu and Zhu Qianyu.
Of course, if Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui were present, then such a situation would definitely not arise.
Unfortunately, they are not here.
There was not much tension when it came to the outcome of the battle. In the end, the Dao Institute group lost seven disciples, lost two Ancient Engraved Dao Cauldrons, and the remaining 11 disciples had no choice but to flee.
On the other hand, the four Powerseal Disciples of the Divine Institute were eliminated, causing only 9 to remain.
This battle was extremely terrifying, and it caused the Dao Institute to completely lose the advantage it had.
At this point, the number of Ancient Dao Engraved Cauldrons possessed by the Dao Institute disciples had been reduced from six to four, and these two cauldrons were owned by Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui.
This was undoubtedly a very heavy blow to Li Lufeng.
But it can't help. Until recently in the Dao Discussion, all four other great powers other than the Oracle Mountain were filled with bloodlust for the sake of confiscating more cauldrons. Thus, even if it was the Dao Institute that had always maintained a neutral stance, it was simply unable to break away from this.
…
Day 27 of the third month of Dao Discussion.
Conflict erupted between Kong Youran's group from Dao Nuwa Palace and the Sovereign Sect group led by Leng Xinghun.
This was a practically equivalent fight. In the end, a disciple from the Dao Nuwa Palace was knocked out, causing only seven of them to be left.
On the other hand, a single disciple was eliminated from the Sovereign Sect group as well, and eight of them remained.
Moreover, on the same day, the Sovereign Sect group and the Divine Institute group united and joined forces.
…
On the 29th day.
Li Lufeng's luck seemed to be declining. Under his leadership, the group of disciples from the Dao Institute had the unlucky fate of facing a joint attack from the converging forces of the Sovereign Sect and the Divine Institute.
In the end, Li Lufeng's group was aided by Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui who rushed over in time, and their total destruction was prevented.
However, four more disciples from the Divine Institute were eliminated during this battle, so only nine of them were left when Yea Chen and Yu Jiuhui were included.
…
These terrifying battles erupted in succession, and practically every single one of them could be considered a world-shocking battle that caused countless commotion and exclaimed about the shocks in the outside world.
In the end, even the great figures in the Convergence Hall were unable to maintain their composure, and they all felt extremely worried for their respective disciples.
That's too horrible!
As the end drew near, the entire World Dao Cauldron was in total chaos. The atmosphere of carnage filled it while terrifying killing intent surged all over it.
All of this was done just for the sake of the Ancient Dao Engraved Cauldron.
As long as one had the cauldron, it meant that one had the qualifications to enter the second round of Dao Discussion and had obtained the opportunity to enter the Forgotten Grounds of Chaos!
Under such circumstances, how could one dare to hold back?
“Only the last day left, and the final result will be revealed tomorrow!”
“Currently, only three disciples from Oracle Mountain are left. The Dao Nuwa Palace had seven, the Sovereign Sect had eight, the Divine Institute had nine, and the Dao Institute had nine. Other than Oracle Mountain, the other four great powers still lacked some cauldrons for all their remaining members to enter the second round. Tomorrow will be their last chance! ”
“Persis. The disciples of Oracle Mountain had their own cauldrons. The Dao Nuwa Palace had five, the Sovereign Sect had six, the Divine Institute had seven and the Dao Institute had four. Comparatively, Divine Institutes clearly have a huge advantage. ”
“Currently, the disciples of the Sovereign Sect and the Divine Institute have gathered together. They might launch an all-out attack tomorrow to seize more cauldrons. “
“Everything will depend on what happens tomorrow!”
On this night, many cultivators discussed excitedly, and they were waiting for the arrival tomorrow. They were looking forward to the final outcome of the Dao Discussion.
The Convergence Hall.
“I never expected this, I really never expected this.” The Great Sovereign High Priest of the Red-cloak Sovereign S Lei Fu sighed with emotion, and his voice echoed through the hall.
Not only him, even Chi Song’zi, Wen Ting, Yu Zhen, Huai Kong’zi, and the others never expected that the Dao Discussion that had been conducted for nearly three months would develop to such an extent.
However, they naturally have their own way of thinking.
According to Lei Fu and Chi Song’zi, they had already made sufficient preparations and a very precise plan for this Dao Discussion.
According to their expectations, at this point of the Dao Discussion, it was simply impossible for Oracle Mountain disciples and Dao Nuwa Palace to be able to survive within the Cauldron Dao World until now.
But it just so happened that something unexpected had happened.
There were many reasons for this unexpected occurrence, but as far as Lei Fu and Chi Song’zi were concerned, it was mostly because of Chen Xi.
Ja. They had never imagined at all that Chen Xi's combat power would be so great. Not only did he manage to avoid all sorts of dangers, he even caused the Sovereign Sect and the Divine Institute to lose many disciples.
But the matter had already developed to such an extent that they could only hope that their disciples would be able to eliminate the last three disciples from the Oracle Mountain before the Dao Discussion ended tomorrow.
On the other hand, Wen Ting and Yu Zhen also never expected that their students would suffer such a huge loss.
They felt this was a scheme, and they were completely unable to accept Huai Kong’zi's explanation. Perhaps, they would seek an explanation from the Dao Institute after the Dao Discussion ended!
Similarly, they hoped that their respective disciples would be able to survive until the end and enter the second round of Dao Discussion.
Huai Kong’zi and all the Instructing Elders of the Dao Institute also never imagined that the situation would develop in such a way.
Not only did their disciples suffer great losses, they even offended the other four great powers during this process.
So, at this moment, Huai Kong’zi's mood was unable to improve at all, and even to the point that he was subjected to extremely heavy pressure.
Right now, he was just hoping that nothing unexpected happened again!
…
“Have you all noticed that Chen Mountain Oracle Mountain's luck seems very good. Ever since Discussion Dao entered his third month, the others had fought countless times, yet he had actually not met a single opponent along the way! ”
“Hmm? Now that you have said that, I noticed that Chen Xi's luck is indeed heaven-defying. “
“Unfortunately, the luck of the other disciples from Oracle Mountain is not that good. Otherwise, how could only three of them be left now? Compared to the other four great powers, the results of Oracle Mountain in the first round of this Dao Discussion were slightly inferior. “
“What is it? That's not necessarily so. Don't forget that only 10 disciples from Oracle Mountain participated in the Dao Discussion, and it's already very difficult to be able to accomplish this. “
“Stop arguing. Could it be that the two of you did not notice that something had gone wrong since the first round of this Dao Discussion had begun, and too many suspicious incidents had occurred? “
“I can't bother paying attention to all that. Now, I only want to watch the peak of one-on-one combat during the second round and not this chaotic group battle. “
The voices of discussion were unceasingly in the outside world, whereas, it was silent deadly in the World Dao Cauldron. All the battles had become silent this past night.
It seems like they understood each other secretly. All the disciples of the five great powers had chosen to recover and gather strength instead of setting out to seize the Ancient Dao Engraved Cauldron.
They were clearly aware that the first round of Dao Discussion would end tomorrow. However, the period of time before it ended must have been extremely dangerous beyond anything they had experienced throughout the Dao Discussion!
“Besok is the last day ..” Under the veil of night, Chen Xi frowned and muttered by the river in the forest. “Even until now, I have not seen another disciple from our sect. Could they all be eliminated? “
Gu Yan opened his mouth but did not know what to say, and his heart was rather heavy.
“Already. Everything will be clear after the Dao Discussion ends tomorrow. ” Chen Xi shook her head and stopped thinking about this. However, he decided in his heart that he absolutely would not give up on finding his fellow disciples until the last moment of the Dao Discussion.
But Chen Xi also equally clearly realized that enduring until tomorrow until the Dao Discussion ended would be a very serious test for Gu Yan and him as well.
