CHAPTER 976: CHAPTER 309: SEVEN YEARS HAVE PASSED

The time that followed.

Chen Qiu explored the rest of the palace alone, visiting places like the Alchemy Hall, Artifact Refining Hall, and Talisman Making Hall, all of which were fully equipped and intact.

At first, the novelty was quite fresh.

Gradually, though, it faded into monotony.

This palace was the greatest opportunity he had ever encountered, even more significant than something like a group of Heavenly Dao Terms, but the issue was... he couldn’t leave here, couldn’t return to his continent.

After a long period.

Chen Qiu, having toured all the areas, sighed lightly, changed the bedding on the bed, then sat cross-legged on the bed, activating the spiritual energy input pipe in the room, causing it to fill with spiritual energy almost instantly.

Subsequently, he used Spirit Stones to set up a Spirit Gathering Array.

While the timed Seven-colored term "Luck is Coming" hadn’t disappeared yet, reducing the cultivation progress by half, this was the best time to cultivate.

Since he couldn’t leave for the time being, he might as well cultivate and see if there were any breakthroughs.

...

Quickly—

As the vast snow fell, the entire palace was enveloped in a blanket of white snow, and a year passed by.

"It’s been a year..."

Standing in the courtyard, Chen Qiu, with a dazed expression, looked up at the falling snowflakes and mumbled.

The snow was perfect, a flawless snowfall, but unfortunately, he didn’t have much of a mood to appreciate it, and terms like "Luck is Coming" and "Thousand-layered Spellcasting" had long expired.

His cultivation advanced from "Body Integration Realm Level 4" to "Body Integration Peak Great Perfection."

With "Luck is Coming," a thousandfold cultivation speed, endless spiritual energy, and a large number of Spirit Stones as support, his cultivation advanced rapidly.

In just a year, he had reached the body integration peak.

He had five opportunities for "three out of one" common entries and five for "three out of one" Supreme Entries, resulting from a breakthrough in the small realm’s cultivation.

Under the effect of the "Step by Step (Supreme)" entry, every breakthrough in a small realm not only earned him one "three out of one" chance for a common entry but also a "three out of one" chance for a Supreme Entry.

The term "Luck is Coming" not only greatly accelerated cultivation but also provided a hundred reroll opportunities during entry selection; this term expired before the first two breakthroughs.

With a hundred reroll opportunities.

He obtained two decent entries.

-

"Entry Name": Forgetfulness.

"Entry Level": Purple.

"Entry Effect": Every week, one item you possess will be randomly lost. In return, each lost item increases your cultivation progress by 5%.

-

"Entry Name": Lost and Found.

"Entry Level": Purple.

"Entry Effect": Items that you lose will return to you the next day, so you will never accidentally discard your treasured items due to carelessness, unless you intentionally discard them.

-

These two entries were chosen using the hundred reroll opportunities.

Not bad, he was quite satisfied.

He chose the first entry because there weren’t better options, and the negative effects of the remaining two were greater, so he randomly picked one, planning to explode it later.

A weekly 5% cultivation progress was very tempting.

Most importantly, his current cultivation was in the Body Integration Realm, and a 5% cultivation progress was already enticing, but as his cultivation progressed and he advanced further, this 5% progress became even more attractive!

But... the cost was randomly losing one of his items.

This was something he could barely accept; if he lost a Spirit Stone, it wouldn’t be too bad, but if he lost something like the Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella, he would be heartbroken.

He calculated that he had enough Spirit Stones that the probability of losing a Spirit Stone was the highest, and indeed, within a month of acquiring this entry, all the lost items were Spirit Stones.

His original plan was to explode this entry when he had almost used up this batch of Spirit Stones.

But who would have thought that the following month, when his cultivation broke through again, he would randomly obtain the "Lost and Found" entry, perfectly resolving the issue without worry.

As for the three common entries he drew, they were quite ordinary and not worth mentioning.

During this year of closed-door cultivation, he conceived a way to leave here.

And it was...

Three entry opportunities could be combined into one opportunity for a combined three Supreme Entries, and after a combination of three Supreme Entries.

There was a 50% chance of a "three out of one" opportunity for Supreme Entries one Great Realm above the current cultivation, a 30% chance for a "ten out of four" opportunity for Supreme Entries, a 15% chance to obtain an ’Immortal Light’ to upgrade any of your entries to the corresponding Seven-colored entry or to the highest grade if there isn’t a corresponding Seven-colored entry, a 4.9% chance for a "three out of one" opportunity for a Seven-colored entry, and a 0.1% chance for a "three out of one" opportunity for a Heavenly Dao Term Group.

The opportunity to draw three Supreme Entries could synthesize into higher-grade things.

His plan was simple.

He would keep accumulating entry drawing opportunities and see if he could draw a "Seven-colored entry" or a "Heavenly Dao Term Group" to help him leave here; otherwise, there was no other way.
