Chapter 106 The Demise of the Eight Major Powers

"So, have you given up on everything?" Nie Xinghe murmured to himself, watching Gu Ye's receding figure with eyes full of complex and indecipherable emotions—unwillingness, confusion, and a trace of unspeakable melancholy.

Gu Ye's figure gradually blurred and distanced in his eyes, eventually vanishing completely.

He proceeded without any hindrance, encountering no obstacles, and stepped firmly onto the final step of the [stairway to godhood].

Just inches away, the ancient and heavy [spirit sealing cauldron] floated quietly. The cauldron's body emitted a restrained dark light, and wisps of divine aura swirled around it as it sat upon the high platform, exuding infinite majesty.

Gu Ye looked at the treasure right before his eyes, his gaze churning with irrepressible excitement. Taking a deep breath, his eyes grew more determined as he resolutely took the final step to the summit.

"Bang—!"

A world-shaking explosion erupted as a majestic pillar of light suddenly burst forth from the [spirit sealing cauldron].

The golden light was dazzling, soaring into the clouds and instantly illuminating the entire Tianding Mountain. Even the clouds on the horizon were dyed a brilliant gold, a world-shaking display of power.

Simultaneously, everyone who was currently climbing felt a sudden lightness throughout their bodies.

Mo Yu and the others in the lead positions saw their expressions change instantly, realizing that someone had already obtained the [spirit sealing cauldron].

The group hurriedly rushed toward the top of the [stairway to godhood]. The thousands of Examinees behind them reacted after a few seconds, also instantly understanding and charging toward the summit; no one capable of participating in the College Entrance Examination was a fool.

Everyone was divided into ten factions—no, it should be nine factions, plus the Demon Generals and other members of the Demon Race.

The Black Sheep Cult and the Eclipse Alliance formed an alliance, while the Remnant Ghost Cult allied with the Demon Refining Society. As for the Zhu Ren Sect, it could only be said that even a dog would find them repulsive, let alone the other four Evil God Cults.

When the Church Members of the Zhu Ren Sect saw this, their expressions also turned somewhat ugly.

When Cui Lieqiong and the others rushed to the top of the [stairway to godhood], they happened to see Gu Ye holding a small cauldron that emitted a dark light.

Seeing this, Cui Lieqiong and the others from the Yanxia Federation couldn't help but look delighted.

Cui Lieqiong, Li Weihuan, and the others quickly moved to Gu Ye's side, keeping a close watch on the Zhu Ren Sect and other factions.

A subtle atmosphere spread among the crowd; their lives were now in Gu Ye's hands.

After a moment, all the Examinees had rushed to the top of the [stairway to godhood]. The massive crowd made the once spacious plaza feel extremely cramped.

Those from the Yanxia Federation gathered around Gu Ye and his group.

Gu Ye's expression was somewhat solemn. Although he had obtained the [spirit sealing cauldron], he couldn't activate it yet.

"Night Dwelling Phoenix, how much longer!" Gu Ye asked anxiously in his mind.

"Soon, three minutes!"

"Kill Gu Ye! He isn't using the [spirit sealing cauldron]!"

It seemed a member of the Evil God Cult had noticed something amiss, as Shan Qixiu shouted loudly.

The group of Church Members along with Examinees from the Coldwind Harbors Federation, Meiying Federation, and Airuion United Federation swarmed forward.

"Protect Gu Ye!" Cui Lieqiong roared, leading the charge toward Goat Two and the others.

Hearing his voice, Gu Ye seriously doubted whether Cui Lieqiong was a member of a Noble Families.

The Examinees of the Yanxia Federation understood that the time for a desperate struggle had come. If they didn't fight now, they would be the ones dying in a moment.

"Zhang Fei! Daiyu!"

The figures of Zhang Fei and Lin Daiyu appeared beside him, guarding Gu Ye.

At the same time, Yan Shuangling and the others also came to his side.

Gu Ye then took out another card. As spiritual energy surged in his hands, a massive, pitch-black castle suddenly appeared where Gu Ye stood.

"A Domain Card? How is that possible?"

The expressions of those who recognized the Domain Card turned ugly instantly.

Cui Lieqiong and Li Weihuan could only hold back Holloway Waldorf and Devon Dudley.

The sheep horns on Goat Two's head flickered with dark light, his eyes flashing with anxiety. No one knew when Gu Ye would be able to use the [spirit sealing cauldron]; they had to seize it immediately.

"Go!"

Goat Two, Shan Qixiu, Mo Yu, and several others rushed toward the Wolf Fort.

"Gu Ye can actually use a Domain Card!" Goat Two sized up the Wolf Fort.

"Don't think too much about it. Break through the castle quickly and get the [spirit sealing cauldron], otherwise we won't even know how we died."

Mo Yu held a demonic sword, continuously slashing black sword qi against the Wolf Fort.

The sword qi carved out several significant gashes in the Wolf Fort.

Seeing this, the others looked delighted; they hadn't expected it to be so easy to break through the Wolf Fort's defenses.

[Dual Wok Combination: Invincible Under Heaven]!

Just then, an angry female voice rang out, and the gates of the Wolf Fort swung open rapidly.

A Frying Pan burning with purple flames flew out from within, smashing fiercely toward Mo Yu.

Unable to react in time, Mo Yu was sent flying by the Frying Pan.

Simultaneously, attacks from Luo Yuerou and the others flew out from the castle.

The task Gu Ye had given them was to hold off Goat Two and the others for three minutes.

Luo Yuerou was clad in red battle armor, two tender pink dragon horns growing from her head. Her aura transformed from seductive and enchanting into that of a flame queen.

Yan Shuangling was accompanied by the Elegant Blade, her eyes sparkling with intensity.

Luo Yuerou and Red Wolf faced off against Mo Yu, Chu Ling and Ye Suxuan teamed up against Shan Qixiu, while Yan Shuangling and her brother fought against Goat Two.

Sitting on the throne inside the Wolf Fort, Gu Ye immediately applied buffs to them.

[Storage Supply]!

Various kitchen utensils inside the Wolf Fort's kitchen immediately began to move. Ingredients appeared out of thin air, transforming into various delicacies that were sent to the battlefield.

Gu Ye's spiritual energy was also being continuously consumed. He roughly estimated that it would be enough to last for three minutes.

The delicacies from the Wolf Fort turned into light and surged into their bodies, causing their combat power to skyrocket instantly, allowing them to barely hold their own against Goat Two and the others.

Goat Two and the others' expressions changed. "How did they suddenly become so much stronger?"

"It's because of the Domain Card!"

Mo Yu's expression was grim. As the seconds ticked by, they couldn't even break through the most basic defensive line.

Three minutes passed quickly.

Gu Ye's face was somewhat pale from the excessive use of spiritual energy, but the [spirit sealing cauldron] in his hand shone with intense light.

"It's done!"

Night Dwelling Phoenix's voice suddenly rang out, and Gu Ye nodded.

Gu Ye channeled his remaining spiritual energy into the [spirit sealing cauldron].

Without the support of additional spiritual energy, the Wolf Fort, Zhang Fei, and the others vanished on the spot, turning into speckles of starlight.

This sudden change interrupted the battle for Goat Two and the others.

Goat Two turned his head toward the direction of the Wolf Fort.

Seeing Gu Ye standing there, despite his pale face, the smile on his lips sent a wave of horror through Goat Two's heart.

Gu Ye waved his hand at Goat Two and the others, saying softly:

"Goodbye!"

In an instant, everyone belonging to the Coldwind Harbors Federation, Meiying Federation, Airuion United Federation, and the Evil God Cult was reduced to ashes before Gu Ye's eyes.
