Chapter 2207 - 2293: Absorbing the Power of Incense

Chapter 2207: Chapter 2293: Absorbing the Power of Incense

In the next moment, a crystalline Small Tower appeared in the void, dragging a fiery tail behind it.

It suddenly crashed into the Flame Sect Heavenly Position Elder.

The Flame Sect Elder reached out to block, attempting to sweep away the Haotian Tower with a slap.

"Bang!"

He slapped the Haotian Tower, only to produce a muffled sound.

"Sizzle!"

The smell of roasted meat accompanied the sound, wafting into everyone’s nostrils.

The Flame Sect Elder painfully withdrew his hand instantly, but his hand had already burned into a braised pig leg.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! It hurts! It hurts!" He screamed, originally a Heavenly Position strongman immune to ordinary flames, but the flame from the body of the Haotian Tower continued to spread from his palm onto his body.

He immediately countered with Divine Power, consuming a considerable amount, but half his arm was burned off.

The Flame Sect Elder next to him saw the tragic situation of his senior brother, forgetting to retaliate, staring dumbly as the Haotian Tower slowly landed beside Chen Nan.

A surge of power poured into Chen Nan’s body.

"Ah..." Chen Nan moaned in comfort.

"I heard your call, so I hurriedly attended to matters in the Human World and came. Though there are slight imperfections, the major tasks are almost completed."

The Haotian Tower landed beside Chen Nan, speaking earnestly.

"When you originally returned to the Human World, can Little Heavenly Demon have a way to restore Spiritual Wisdom, how is it now?" Chen Nan saw the Haotian Tower empty-handed in return, holding little hope.

Nonetheless, the speed at which the Haotian Tower’s strength had increased impressed Chen Nan a great deal.

"That matter, we’ll discuss it later, I’ll do my utmost; meanwhile, our situation doesn’t seem too good." The Haotian Tower chuckled.

Chen Nan rolled his eyes, speechless: "Do you even need to say it?"

He was now gravely injured but saw the Small Tower and felt a creeping sense of confidence.

"Sadly, the Power of Incense from the golden body I molded atop Hua Mountain has been entirely absorbed by me and isn’t sufficient, otherwise, there’d be more leverage for this battle."

The Haotian Tower evidently lacked confidence, too.

"You molded our golden body atop Hua Mountain?" Chen Nan couldn’t help but ask.

"Indeed, otherwise where do you think the flame that burned the old geezer came from? The Power of Incense from the Human World is quite usable, albeit too little; however, soon it will increase, for I have developed our followers during my visit, as long as they constantly worship... oh, pray for your blessing, offer incense, we will continuously gain Power of Incense."

The Haotian Tower continued, "Heavenly Position strong people, who commune with Heaven and Earth, aren’t troubled by ordinary flames generally, but the Power of Incense is their nemesis. As they say, humans learn from the earth, earth learns from heaven, heaven learns from Taoist Skill, Taoist Skill learns from nature, conversely too, humans are constantly changing Heaven and Earth, hence are also Heaven’s nemesis."

"Damn, doesn’t this imply we’ll become stronger?" Chen Nan was so excited he lost himself, such good fortune, fell into my lap; indeed, being a decent person bears rewards.

"By the way, why would anyone willingly offer us incense?" Chen Nan inquired curiously.

The Haotian Tower burst into laughter, "That’s owed to Little Tower Master’s brilliance. Recall last time I took all your Storage Rings? The contents of those rings are a vast fortune for you, and equally groundbreaking for the Human World, attracting countless strongmen. I struck a deal with those strongmen, they spread the belief in incense in exchange for receiving Cultivation Techniques and elixirs from me."

"Those old fellows from the Demon God Mountain were tempted, ordered to guard the void of the Human World in turns, preventing calamity, while laying the foundation for our incense."

The Haotian Tower was exceedingly pleased with itself.

"And the Little Heavenly Demon..." Chen Nan invariably harbored concern for the old demon, recalling the days they fought side by side, which was truly poignant.

Hearing Chen Nan couldn’t hold back from asking, the Haotian Tower finally expressed annoyance: "Dag nabbit, don’t you care a bit for Little Tower Master, truth be told, once we absorb sufficient Power of Incense, we can assist Little Heavenly Demon in reshaping the Divine Soul Spiritual Wisdom."

As they were speaking, Chen Nan was almost fully recovered, his wounds entirely healed.

Moreover, his regenerative ability was extraordinary, appearing perfectly normal now.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Several forces emanated from the Haotian Tower, and Su Dieyi, the Black Feathered Chicken, Ye Yiyi, Su Qingqing, Zhao Han’s injuries began rapidly healing, their Divine Power also increasing.

This Power of Incense was the Power of Faith from countless small forces, individually insignificant, but terrifyingly powerful together.

Two Heavenly Position Elders of the Flame Sect stared at Chen Nan, with more elders arriving, yet the Haotian Tower and Chen Nan were chatting conversationally, utterly ignoring their presence.

The Flame Sect elders’ faces grew exceedingly gloomy.

But they dared not act rashly, for the flame from the Haotian Tower was truly terrifying.

The elder whose half-arm was burned found it unresponsive in his attempt to recover.

"Chen Nan, is that your Pagoda indeed? Sure, it’s capable, but today we have forty-one Heavenly Position strongmen here, do you think you can escape, surrender obediently." One Flame Sect elder looked with a glint in his eyes.

Chen Nan’s figure moved, the Phoenix Wing Gold Gilt Mace already in hand.

He pointed the Phoenix Wing Gold Gilt Mace at these Flame Sect elders: "No matter that I die fighting today, I won’t beg. None of you treacherous curs will find comfort, even at the cost of my life."

"You..." That elder was irate, nearly spitting blood at Chen Nan’s words.

He had lived for thousands of years, never having been scolded right at the nose like this.

In an instant, he attacked.

Other Flame Sect elders saw him lead and likewise activated their Cultivation Techniques, pouncing on Chen Nan and the others.

At that moment, Chen Nan sensed a surge in his internal power.

He willed it and lunged with the Phoenix Wing Gold Gilt Mace at a Flame Sect elder.

The elder disregarded it, blocking with his hand.

"Buzz!"

The elder groaned, surprisingly losing a finger to Chen Nan’s Phoenix Wing Gold Gilt Mace, and retaliated by sending Chen Nan flying.

"Seems the golden body in the Human World has received more Power of Incense, this strength is genuinely mysterious." Chen Nan mused, finally seeing hope.

Little Breaker Kid entangled twenty Heavenly Position elders there, Flower Maiden handled over ten.

These two grew stronger as they fought, albeit surrounded by Heavenly Position strongmen, creating a deadlock for now.

The remaining ones weren’t strong, yet the strength gap between Chen Nan and his allies was substantial; without the invincible defense of the Haotian Tower’s body, they could have been severely injured again.

"Everyone, hold on! As long as we endure, Little Breaker Kid and Flower Maiden will gain the upper hand eventually, and these old geezers will kneel in submission!" Chen Nan shouted.
