Chapter 2240: Chapter 2326: Campaign Against the Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault

Seeing Chen Nan rush in, Su Dieyi showed a smug smile on her face.

"Chen Nan, you bastard, go right ahead. This Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault, other than the Nine Dragon Dagger that my father helped me take out when I was born, I’ve entered numerous times over the years, only to come out empty-handed."

Su Dieyi had long seen through Chen Nan’s performance but just went along with his act.

"Trying to trick me? No way!"

Su Dieyi’s face showed a smug smile.

Ye Yiyi and Su Qingqing, Zhao Han, and the Black Feathered Chicken all displayed speechless expressions when they heard Su Dieyi’s words. Apparently, none of them expected Chen Nan to fall for Su Dieyi’s trap.

As Chen Nan rushed into the Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault, he felt as if he was trapped in a chaotic void. Looking around, it seemed there was endless space.

The spot where he stood was on a wide avenue, with endless black fog rising on both sides. However, when the black fog reached the level parallel to the avenue, it was immediately scattered by the golden light from the endless void above, disappearing without a trace.

"This Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault doesn’t seem easy to navigate," Chen Nan thought to himself, suddenly recalling that when he entered the Earth-level Cultivation Room, Su Dieyi had mentioned that the treasures here were meant for those who were fated.

He had been so engrossed in urgently fooling Su Dieyi that he forgot about it.

Now recalling it, he understood why Su Dieyi was so generous, inviting him to come in and choose freely, with whatever he could take out being his.

Chen Nan looked upward and exclaimed, "Wow, this Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault where I’m currently standing seems to be just the First Level, and there are eight more above, totaling nine levels."

Scanning the area with his eyes and turning his gaze, Chen Nan quickly moved forward. The Divine Sense couldn’t be released too far within the vault, only covering a range of several hundred meters, which wasn’t much help to him, so looking with the naked eye proved more convenient.

"Eh, what’s that?" Chen Nan looked into the distance, noticing a stone flying toward him from the void.

In an instant, he summoned the Golden Phoenix Winged Spear and aimed at the stone.

"Boom!"

The flying stone was smashed to powder and dissipated into the sky.

Those powdery fragments quickly merged into the surrounding void, disappearing without a trace.

"Here comes another one!"

Just after smashing one flying stone, another one flew in from the void.

Without hesitation, Chen Nan moved swiftly, using the spear tip of the Golden Phoenix Winged Spear to pierce through the stone before it could approach him.

"Boom boom boom!"

Chen Nan continuously executed the Eighteen Ways of Tang, combating those flying stones in the void.

"Damn, this Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault really isn’t a place for humans. With so many flying stones, if this continues, I’ll eventually exhaust my Divine Power. Once it’s drained, though my physical body is strong, defending against them won’t be easy."

Chen Nan continued advancing, feeling increasing pressure along the way.

"Damn, the stones ahead are getting bigger. This can’t go on." Chen Nan halted his steps, standing still.

At that moment, his body trembled, realizing that over the past quarter of an hour, to reduce the consumption of Divine Power, he had tried to crush these stones relying on physical strength as much as possible. Unexpectedly, this led to a change in the Power of Incense within him, becoming much stronger than before.

Chen Nan noticed that the Power of Incense absorbed from the golden body atop Hua Mountain in the Human World was now burning more vigorously in his Sea of Consciousness.

The massive consumption of physical power seemed to have provided energy to the existing Power of Incense.

"Could it be that this Power of Incense, aside from being fueled by others’ faith and offerings, can also be cultivated through my unwavering, resilient spirit?"

A thought crossed Chen Nan’s mind.

"That’s not right. Previously, during the fierce battles with the elders of the Five Great Sects, I was in much worse shape but never gave up, and this Power of Incense never experienced enhancement."

Chen Nan shook his head, dismissing that notion.

He gazed at the void, saying, "Could it be because this is the domain of the Heavenly Dao, hence the Power of Incense grows stronger due to the Adversity Principle? Like weeds growing greener in wall cracks, and eagles on cliffs soaring more easily into the sky?"

Talking to himself, Chen Nan made a rough judgment in his mind and chose not to dwell on it further, deciding to test his theory in practice. With about fifty percent of his Divine Power remaining, he opted to abandon its use entirely.

Activating the Power of World Origin, driving the Star Technique, Chen Nan moved forward with strong, determined steps.

"Whoosh!"

Another flying stone appeared, larger than the previous ones.

"Boom!" The Golden Phoenix Winged Spear struck, but due to conserving Divine Power, his attack power significantly weakened, failing to shatter the stone completely.

The stone merely cracked.

At the moment it cracked, Chen Nan’s body trembled, nearly losing his balance.

Yet, he noticed the Power of Incense in his Sea of Consciousness had become even stronger than before.

The flames burned fiercely, emanating a powerful Life Force.

"Imagine that, who would have thought there’d be such benefits in the Heaven and Earth Treasure Vault. If I knew earlier, I’d have come to endure the hardship long ago."

In high spirits, Chen Nan mused that, while hindsight is always cheaper, it wasn’t too late now.

"Old demon, this time you have luck on your side, there’s hope. Once you revive, we can take on any fool in the White Clan Domain carelessly and enjoy a satisfying kill, oh yes, regarding the Heavenly People Clan’s Ten Strongest, aside from the Heavenly Evil Emperor, there’s Star Moon Ancestor and the Twin Emperors, those three are frighteningly powerful. We need to find a way to take them down, once and for all."

Though excited, Chen Nan didn’t forget his primary task. With battles among the Four Extremes World’s powerhouses against the Outer Domain being unavoidable due to the Heavenly People Clan, the Hundred Clan Domain must be ventured into eventually. However, dealing with the Heavenly People Clan thoroughly first is essential for peace of mind.

Otherwise, should any accident occur, a single Heavenly People Clan Supreme could destroy the entire Earth.

Realizing that continuously strengthening the Power of Incense would soon accumulate enough to help the little Heavenly Demon regain Spiritual Wisdom brought immense joy to Chen Nan’s heart.

"Attack!"

With the Golden Phoenix Winged Spear in hand, executing the Star Technique, Chen Nan continued to charge and smash those stones, breaking them apart.

"Sadly, in this Fengtian Talisman, being the domain of the Heavenly Dao, techniques like the God Demon Transformation may be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao if utilized, or else I could have even more fun now," Chen Nan thought to himself.
