Chapter 2833: Chapter 2833: Borrowing the Cauldron

"Jiuding Divine King, are you still going to fight? If not, just surrender and admit defeat, and let the position of the subordinate sect leader be taken by me!"

The opponent of Jiuding Divine King, the expert known as Xuandao Divine King, sneered and mocked.

Xuandao Divine King’s realm and cultivation level were comparable to Jiuding Divine King’s, but he relied on a newly acquired blade-shaped divine artifact to suppress Jiuding Divine King, gaining the upper hand and seizing the Jiuding Divine King’s nine divine cauldrons, feeling tremendously proud.

Jiuding Divine King was furious at the words and said harshly, "Xuandao Divine King, don’t be so full of yourself! The outcome between us has yet to be decided, asking me to surrender? No way!"

Xuandao Divine King arrogantly smiled and said, "If you admit defeat on your own, there’s still a way to survive; refuse to surrender, and you’ll die without a grave!"

Jiuding Divine King laughed angrily and said, "Don’t speak too soon! It’s still uncertain who will emerge victorious between us! Come, let’s fight for another three hundred rounds!"

Xuandao Divine King laughed heartily and said, "Why need three hundred rounds? I can take care of you within thirty rounds!"

With the divine blade in hand, he could thoroughly suppress Jiuding Divine King, confidently aiming to subdue him within thirty rounds.

Jiuding Divine King was also well aware of this, yet he refused to voluntarily surrender, which would make him suffer more than being killed.

Great Might Divine King also understood that his old friend Jiuding Divine King, having lost his nine divine cauldrons, had his combat strength weakened considerably; if they continued fighting, he might really not last thirty rounds.

However, Xuandao Divine King’s provocative words made Great Might Divine King feel that even he would find it intolerable, let alone Jiuding Divine King, who had a temper even more irritable than his own.

"Old Jiuding, he’s deliberately provoking you, don’t get impulsive!"

Despite knowing it might be futile, Great Might Divine King still tried to persuade Jiuding Divine King.

Jiuding Divine King clenched his fists tightly, shook his head forcefully, and said coldly, "Old Great Might, if you still consider me a friend, then don’t block my path! Divine Realm experts can be killed but not humiliated, so even if I die in this battle, I will accept it!"

Great Might Divine King sighed lightly at these words, stepped aside to let Jiuding Divine King pass and prepare to fight Xuandao Divine King to the death.

"Your cauldrons are gone, borrow mine for a while!"

Fang Bai suddenly spoke up, a flash appeared between his brows, and the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron flew out, expanding from a tiny grain size to a hundred times larger, then hovered before Jiuding Divine King.

"This..."

Jiuding Divine King examined the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron before him, his eyes widening with light shooting forth.

He was a strong cauldron user, well acquainted with various cauldron-shaped divine artifacts, but upon seeing Fang Bai’s Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron, he realized that this divine cauldron was completely unfamiliar to him.

Moreover, he could sense that this divine cauldron, despite its mottled rust, appearing ancient and heavy without aesthetic appeal, was far superior in the immense divine power it contained than his nine divine cauldrons.

"What a cauldron!"

Jiuding Divine King extended his left hand, held the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron in his palm, murmuring with fascination, just like a treasure appraiser finding a rare gem.

Great Might Divine King had seen Fang Bai’s divine cauldron before, knew of its extraordinary power, and didn’t expect that he would lend it to Jiuding Divine King, immediately transmitting, "Though Jiuding Divine King can be reckless, his character is trustworthy. By lending him your divine cauldron, he will definitely return it to you. I can vouch for this!"

Fang Bai nodded with a smile.

Although one can know faces but not hearts, Fang Bai considered himself an excellent judge of character. While watching from the sidelines, from Jiuding Divine King’s words and behaviors, he knew that this Divine King Realm expert had a bold and straightforward personality, prompting him to lend out his Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron.

His Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron was much stronger than Jiuding Divine King’s nine divine cauldrons, and while lending it to him, Fang Bai infused a strand of his consciousness into the cauldron, allowing it to temporarily accept Jiuding Divine King’s control.

Jiuding Divine King’s realm and cultivation were far greater than Fang Bai’s, and in wielding the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron, its power would also surpass Fang Bai’s, enough to alter the outcome of this battle.

His opponent Xuandao Divine King was also very insightful. Seeing Fang Bai’s Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron, his eyes lit up with desire, thinking to himself how the nine divine cauldrons he had just obtained pale in comparison to this divine cauldron.

"Jiuding Divine King, if you’re willing to give me your divine cauldron, I’ll return your nine cauldrons and spare your life! How about it?"

With a treasure in mind, Xuandao Divine King aimed to get the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron.

With one cauldron in hand, Jiuding Divine King felt its boundless energy surging, emboldening him as he coldly replied, "I can retrieve my nine divine cauldrons myself! Spare my life? Right now, determining life or death is uncertain!"

He threw the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron he held in his hand, shouted loudly, "Try the power of this divine cauldron!"

The Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron flew into the starry sky, expanded a hundred times, and plunged down with a thunderous crash, targeting Xuandao Divine King.

Seeing the cauldron fall, Xuandao Divine King noticed the starry sky overhead twisting and distorting, causing him to draw a cold breath, realizing that this cauldron’s divine power was extraordinary, beyond his capability to resist.

Unable to resist, he could only dodge.

However, Xuandao Divine King was horrified to find his movement slowing down compared to normal.

Xuandao Divine King immediately understood; the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron’s power was so strong it could constrain the space around him.

"How is this possible!"

In utter shock, Xuandao Divine King realized that the divine cauldron Fang Bai lent to Jiuding Divine King was indeed a weapon capable of harvesting his life.

"Boom!"

With a resounding crash, the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron fell. Desperately, Xuandao Divine King could only muster all his strength to counter it with his blade-shaped divine artifact.

His blade-shaped divine artifact, slightly stronger than Jiuding Divine King’s nine cauldrons, relied on it, hoping to block the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron’s earth-shattering blow.

"Pfft!"

The blade-shaped divine artifact positioned before Xuandao Divine King to block the descending cauldron was like a futile attempt, as the cauldron’s vast divine power poured from it like a galaxy cascade, seeped into the blade-shaped divine artifact, then into Xuandao Divine King, shaking him violently, with a mouthful of blood he couldn’t hold back, spraying forth.

The Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron, with a simple strike, caused Xuandao Divine King to spit blood and stagger backward, and Jiuding Divine King rejoiced immensely.

He maneuvered the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron, repeatedly striking.

After several repetitions, Xuandao Divine King was left defenseless, each blow causing greater injury than the last.

"Stop... stop... I surrender... I admit defeat!"

Xuandao Divine King, a wise man not willing to suffer the immediate loss, seeing the continuous strikes from the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron could threaten his life, decided to surrender voluntarily.
