Chapter 2863 - 1058: Heavenly Tribulation Treasure Snatch, Thousand Clouds Flowing Together (Part 2)

What kind of precious item could be refined by fully integrating them together and leveraging the power of the Divine Thunder from the Heavenly Tribulation?

Zhou Fuqiu’s breathing quickened for a moment, but he quickly calmed it down.

For such a magic item, once it comes into existence, its foundation would be immensely profound. He must refine it.

Suddenly!

An ear-piercing reminder came from below.

"If not seizing the treasure now, then when?"

Zhou Fuqiu leaped up, facing the falling thunder from the sky, and dove straight into the depths of the clouds.

Countless gazes, filled with complex emotions, stared at that cloud layer, within which lightning flickered and Qi Power surged.

It was unclear how much time had passed; it seemed like an instant.

An overwhelming sense of suppression yet inclusiveness emerged spontaneously in everyone’s hearts.

The thunder and lightning stopped abruptly.

The dark clouds scattered in an instant.

A white-robed figure floated down gently into the Tianyuan Temple.

As soon as Zhou Fuqiu landed, he drew the attention of five gazes.

He took a deep breath and extended his hand, revealing an incomparably smooth blue Treasure Bead to everyone present.

"Master, Martial Uncle, Fuqiu has fortunately completed the task!"

Qing Lan Fairy nodded with satisfaction: "Treasure refining through Heavenly Tribulation is the most dangerous, but once successful, its benefits are unimaginable. The Sea-Stabilizing Pearl in your hand has surpassed the tier of magic treasures and is already a powerful True Device!"

Hearing this, the opposite Hui Yuanhong said with slight excitement: "Using a True Device as a Natal Magic Item, coupled with Zhou Fuqiu’s already formidable strength, in the Daoist Sect Sixty-Year Competition, he will surely stand unrivaled!"

However, Zhan Bingtao, the creator of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, poured cold water on the situation.

"Don’t think it’s so easy. While magic items are driven by Qi Power, True Devices are as well, but to unleash maximum power, they need to absorb the ambient Spirit Qi. Zhou Fuqiu is currently only at the Early Stage of Golden Core Realm."

The senior members discussed one after another, and Zhou Fuqiu accurately captured the key information.

"Sixty-Year Competition?"

This was information he had never learned about in numerous ancient texts.

Seeing his confusion, Master Qing Lan Fairy explained it again.

It turned out Zhou Fuqiu was not ignorant; rather, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect had no record of a "Sixty-Year Competition" in past history.

This so-called Sixty-Year Competition is actually another form of the Centennial Competition.

Every hundred years, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect holds a competition, and every five hundred years, the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven is opened for a Cave Heaven Competition.

But one hundred years after the last Cave Heaven Competition, no Centennial Competition was held.

The reason is well-known; at that time, Zhongzhou was in turmoil following a catastrophe, leaving no time or energy to organize a competition among disciples.

But as time passed, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect gradually recovered its Yuan Qi, and this ancient tradition should also continue.

Zhou Fuqiu roughly calculated the time; indeed, it had already been over a hundred years since the last Cave Heaven Competition with no subsequent competition held. Even this internal ranking competition of the Tian Nan Dao Palace was held on the Human-Demon battlefield.

"The Sixty-Year Competition is an exception and a product of special circumstances. It will not be continued in the future because the Tianyuan Daoist Sect will surely return to the right path."

Zhan Bingtao took over the conversation eloquently.

"Special circumstances naturally come with unique rewards."

"Unlike past competitions where disciples placing at the top receive numerous magical treasures, pill guidance, and even clan benefits, this Sixty-Year Competition offers benefits not only to the disciples and clans but also provides more resources to the Daoist Palace they belong to!"

Zhou Fuqiu suddenly understood, no wonder the other Hall Masters cared so much about this matter.

If he could perform outstandingly in the Sixty-Year Competition, the originally weak Tian Nan Dao Palace might receive considerable resource inclination and thus regain its strength.

Regarding the help of resources for cultivation, Zhou Fuqiu didn’t deeply feel it.

He cultivated at an extremely fast pace, barely using external objects apart from the necessary Spirit Vein conditions.

But he knew very well how attractive those resources were for ordinary cultivators.

Not to mention others, even his own little sister would need an immense amount of resources to continue her cultivation on the Qi Refining Immortal Dao, even more than ordinary cultivators!

Zhou Fuqiu secretly resolved to perform well in this Sixty-Year Competition.

But Zhan Bingtao wasn’t finished speaking.

"Most importantly, the top ten in each realm in the Sixty-Year Competition will have the opportunity to enter the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven to cultivate!"

Zhou Fuqiu looked slightly confused, not understanding what it meant to cultivate in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven. He instinctively looked at Qing Lan Fairy.

His master was the first place winner in the last Cave Heaven Competition!

Qing Lan Fairy smoothed her hair and smiled slightly: "The reverse opportunities inside are only available to Nascent Soul True Masters, but for normal cultivators, there’s also a tremendous opportunity. I only need to mention one point: the difference in time flow!"

"One day in the Outer World is one hundred days in the Cave Heaven. One year in the Outer World is one hundred years in the Cave Heaven!"

"If you can enter and cultivate there, even for just one year, you can accrue a hundred years’ worth of cultivation compared to your peers!"

Zhou Fuqiu’s lips parted slightly, his eyes brightened, and he lost his composure uncommonly.

Given his speed of cultivation, what realm could he reach if he bridged a hundred years of time?

"Zhou Fuqiu, go cultivate well! The Sixty-Year Competition is still decades away. With your cultivation speed, this time will be sufficient for you to advance your realm and unlock more potential of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl. I hope that at the Sixty-Year Competition, you can win a good ranking for Tian Nan Dao Palace!" Zhan Bingtao slowly said, his eyes full of expectancy.
