Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2899 - 1071: Big Formation of the Mystic Realm, Cave Heaven Reopens

On Big Qiuping, the young man in white stood proudly, holding an Azure Jade Ruler, appearing more radiant than snow.

Beneath him was his opponent on the stage, who looked utterly terrified.

"Is this your true strength?"

Just a moment ago, the opponent unleashed a power that completely exceeded the Golden Core Period, catching him off guard, and he was defeated in a single move.

Zhou Fuqiu didn’t look at him but instead scanned the surroundings, slightly furrowing his brows, pondering something unknown.

In the distance, Daoist Sect experts praised endlessly.

This young prodigy from the Shi Family had always been renowned for his genius. This competition, he was hoped to rank in the top three to five, but he was so easily defeated by Zhou Fuqiu.

The burst of power at that moment already surpassed the Golden Core Period, almost comparable to an Early Stage Nascent Soul Conversion Cultivator.

"No wonder he’s the favored disciple of Qing Lan Fairy!"

"In my opinion, it’s likely he hasn’t exerted his full strength yet."

"Wasn’t that full strength? At my realm, I didn’t have such formidable Qi Power."

"I heard Zhou Fuqiu’s signature technique rivals the Nascent Soul Domain, earning the beauty of ’Qi Sea Floating Sky, myriad phenomena awe-inspiring.’ Have you seen him use that move?"

"Tsk tsk, the existence of someone with a special Daoist Body is truly abnormal. No wonder this child is said to be another Shi Ju..."

"Careful with your words!"

As everyone discussed, a handsome man brushed his sleeves and left, his brows hinting at displeasure.

It was the current Shi Family Head, Shi Ju!

His realm wasn’t particularly high, just the Sixth Layer of Nascent Soul.

Yet his strength was extraordinary. Rumor has it that during his Nascent Soul Fourth Layer, he briefly clashed with the Great Demon Emperor in Eastern Wasteland and held his ground. Over a century has passed, and he must be even more formidable now.

When the Supreme Elder of Shi Family fell at Heaven and Earth Peak, he assumed the position of Family Head, becoming the power-holder of the Giant House Shi Family.

The disciple just defeated by Zhou Fuqiu was a junior he had hopes for but unexpectedly lost thoroughly.

He was displeased by his family’s defeat and frustrated to lose to the disciple of that vile woman!

Facing Shi Ju’s graceless departure in displeasure, the crowd expressed no opinions.

Many knew Shi Ju was proud and tough to deal with since youth. Especially after the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven Competition, his temperament became more erratic and violent, often injuring others. It’s said he lost to a protector inside the Cave Heaven and lost an avatar he painstakingly cultivated, a blow that further distorted his character.

A sect elder stepped forward to announce Zhou Fuqiu’s victory, informing him to rest for three days before participating in the next competition.

Zhou Fuqiu calmly nodded and then stepped down from Big Qiuping.

Shi Miaoyin, along with several junior brothers and sisters, approached to greet him with joyous congratulations resonating endlessly.

However, Shi Miaoyin noticed the few traces of bewilderment hidden within Zhou Fuqiu’s seemingly calm expression.

"Junior Brother, what’s the matter?"

Zhou Fuqiu shook his head, his eyes still wandering aimlessly around, yet finding nothing.

"What exactly was it? Why did it make me feel so alarmed earlier?"

"Is someone watching me?"

"If it’s a sect elder, they could watch my competition openly. If it’s a young scoundrel, my Dharma Eye, said by my master to be comparable to the Divine Consciousness of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, should certainly not miss it. But why did that feeling flash past so quickly?"

At this moment, Zhou Fuqiu was in turmoil.

The ’strong enemy’ he faced on Big Qiuping’s stage actually wasn’t strong.

With ordinary techniques and the Liu Yin Ruler bestowed by ancestors, he could have subdued them, but due to a feeling of unease, he instinctively unleashed his full power.

The spectacle was naturally astonishing, but no one knew about his inner agitation.

Exhaling a breath of frustration, Zhou Fuqiu pushed through the crowd.

"I’m a bit tired and wish to go back and rest, sorry."

The crowd was taken aback.

Although not all were disciples of Qing Lan Fairy, they were all from the Four Halls of Tian Nan Dao Palace.

There might have been contests previously, but they were confined within Tian Nan Dao Palace, and rankings had already been established.

Zhou Fuqiu was Tian Nan’s number one!

Coming to the Daoist Ancestral Court in Rotten Stalemate Mountain Range to compete, they represented Tian Nan Dao Palace, and the ranks obtained would eventually be rewarded back to Tian Nan Dao Palace, who taught them.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Fuqiu still displayed such aloofness.

Senior Sister Shi Miaoyin noticed Zhou Fuqiu’s unusual mood and after he left, briefly explained to the crowd.

"Shi Rui’s strength is formidable; beating him took a considerable toll on Fuqiu. In three days, he’ll face Gu Yu. Give him some time to recover!"

The crowd understood and then discussed Zhou Fuqiu’s next opponent, Gu Yu.

She was a woman from one of the Twelve Great Houses, the Gu Family, also famous as a genius in Li Bei Continent, a popular contender to win the Cave Heaven Competition, even superior to Shi Rui.

Facing such an opponent truly warranted a good rest and recovery, to be taken seriously.

In three days, it promised to be a most spectacular showdown!

...

Leaving Big Qiuping, Zhou Fuqiu didn’t return to his residence to rest as he had said but instead walked slowly along the scenic paths in the Rotten Stalemate Mountain Range.

He continued to introspect and sought the source of that unsettling feeling that had emerged just now.

But he still found nothing.

He could only assume that perhaps he was overthinking, or maybe a sect senior with profound realm watching inadvertently put too much pressure on him.
