Chapter 711 Gathering Incense
Zhang Chen was stunned when he heard this. A guess emerged in his mind. He said in disbelief, "President Zhou wants to gather the incense of Jinling City to repair the pagoda? Is he deliberately watching the Shen family fall?"

"That's impossible! Dean Zhou is not that kind of person." Zhang Chen shook his head in rejection.

Huang Chao asked back, "How is it impossible? The Shen family dominates Jinling and has become the real controller of Jinling, and Zhou Qiucheng was sent by the court to suppress Jinling City. The Shen family is destined to have an irreconcilable power conflict with Zhou Qiucheng. He may not sit back and watch the Shen family fall, but after discovering that the fall of the Shen family is an irresistible trend, he just took the opportunity to push the boat forward."

"And is the relationship between the Shen family and Zhou Qiucheng really that good? If it were really good, how could the Shen family only get the qualification to enter the inner courtyard of Chongzheng Academy to comprehend the mysteries?" Huang Chao asked.

After hearing Huang Chao's words, Zhang Chen was stunned for a moment, finding it difficult to sort out the relationship between them.

"You advised me to leave Jinling City, but I want to advise you to leave Jinling City instead. Although Huang Tiandao has withdrawn from Jinling City, Zhou Qiucheng has sealed Zhao Lie, the star of broken army, and he will never give up. The six stars of the Southern Dipper and the seven stars of the Northern Dipper are related to the overall situation of Huang Tiandao. When Huang Tiandao is fully prepared, the entire Jinling will face a more fierce counterattack, and it will not hesitate to turn the entire Jinling City into ruins."

"The rise of Huang Tiandao cannot be disrupted by anyone, not even Huang Tian Laozi! Therefore, in the future, either Zhou Qiucheng will bow his head, or Jinling City will fall. Huang Tiandao is now bloodthirsty, and with the demon army entering the pass, Huang Tiandao can no longer care about so much. Whoever dares to disrupt Huang Tiandao's plan will end up dead." Huang Chao warned Zhang Chen, and then said triumphantly:
"And I will stay in Jinling City and secretly develop Jinling City's power. When Huang Tiandao counterattacks Jinling City, I will definitely make great contributions. By then, I can climb up a level and have a status comparable to those star gods."

Zhang Chen's face turned serious when he heard this: "If it's really as you said, then we're in trouble!"

"It will be very troublesome, so I advise you to escape quickly. Moreover, you are related to the cause and effect of Chengyu. If you stay in Jinling City, it will be another reason for Huang Tiandao to attack Jinling City." Huang Chao dissuaded Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen fell silent upon hearing this, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Let's go! Leave Jinling City, the farther the better! The depth of Huang Tiandao is absolutely beyond your imagination, and we can't defeat it at all." Huang Chao said this as if to deepen the bargaining chip to persuade Zhang Chen to leave, and then said seriously: "I heard by chance that what the Great Sage Master dug out back then was not a large tomb, but a large tomb of gods and demons. No one knows how much fortune he gained in that tomb. After such a long period of practice, even the three great mysteries of the Great Victory Dynasty can't do anything to him. You can imagine how powerful he is."

"A huge tomb of gods and demons? Have you ever heard of the location of that huge tomb of gods and demons?" Zhang Chen's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he looked at Huang Chao with burning eyes.

"Except the Great Sage Master, no one knows where the tomb is. This is because when I was practicing the art of transformation, I heard a certain real person whispering in private, and I overheard it." Huang Chao said.

After hearing Huang Chao's words, Zhang Chen suddenly became alert and began to ponder the creation of the Huang Tiandao Tomb of Gods and Demons.

"Are you leaving or not?" Huang Chao saw Zhang Chen was stunned, and asked again, his voice full of helplessness: "I asked you to leave because you have done me a favor. Otherwise, when Huang Tiandao takes revenge, it will be too late for you to leave."

"I can't leave. I have my own reasons." Zhang Chen shook his head and rejected Huang Chao's proposal.

Huang Chao smiled bitterly and stood up slowly: "Just wait for bad luck! Remember to come to me when you can't leave. I will take you with me and find a way to disguise you as a soldier and take you out of the city."

Huang Chao turned into a sparrow and flew away, leaving Zhang Chen staring at Huang Chao's back in silence. There were two reasons why he didn't leave. First, he coveted the mystery sealed in the Linglong Tower. Second, Zhou Qiucheng and Chen Sanliang were about to discuss Taoism, so why would he just leave?
"I am really born to worry." Zhang Chen shook his head and returned to the house to continue comprehending the operation of the laws of heaven and earth.

The laws of all things are running in the void. Zhang Chen comprehended the laws of heaven and earth for a night and felt that his Taoism had improved. Although he had not made a breakthrough, his cultivation improved every day, which could give people visible hope.

At dawn the next day, Zhang Chen returned to the academy and found that peace had completely returned to the academy. The turmoil of yesterday seemed to have not existed, but there were fewer people in the academy.

Zhang Chen had just arrived at a mountain path when Jiang Nan appeared and blocked Zhang Chen's way.

Zhang Chen paused, frowning, "What's the matter?"

"Zhang Chen, please leave Chongzheng Academy!" Jiang Nan looked at Zhang Chen and said.

Zhang Chen was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Jiang Nan in surprise. Is this woman crazy? Does she know what she is talking about?
"What?" Zhang Chen couldn't believe his ears. Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Jiang Nan said with a heavy face: "Huang Tiandao is powerful, Chongzheng Academy is definitely not Huang Tiandao's opponent, Chongzheng Academy can no longer withstand your tossing. Once Huang Tiandao makes a comeback, I'm afraid the entire Chongzheng Academy will be turned into dust under Huang Tiandao's anger. So if you really want to be friends with the Zhou family father and son, you should leave Chongzheng Academy with your troubles."

Zhang Chen looked at Jiang Nan's beautiful face and couldn't help but sigh. He felt less and less familiar with this woman.

"With what identity are you talking to me?" Zhang Chen asked.

Jiang Nan was stunned when he heard this and was stunned by Zhang Chen's question.

"Chongzheng Academy is not yours, and it is not your turn to be in power. What qualifications do you have to lecture me?" Zhang Chen showed disdain in his eyes. He walked around Jiang Nan and disappeared into the woods.

Looking at Zhang Chen's back, Jiang Nan couldn't help but curse: "This idiot, if he had left before Huang Tiandao laid a net, and fled early while Huang Tiandao was caught off guard by the dean, he might have been able to escape Huang Tiandao's surveillance and escape alive. When Huang Tiandao makes a comeback, it will be too late. He is the biggest conflict between Huang Tiandao and Chongzheng Academy. As long as he leaves, all conflicts can be resolved. As long as the master releases Zhao Lie, the star of the broken army, Huang Tiandao will never fight to the death with the master. This guy has no overall view at all. He is really a country bumpkin who crawled out of the north and is totally unpresentable."

Zhang Chen walked all the way into the pagoda and saw that the pagoda was extremely deserted today, with at least half of the people gone.

"It seems that no one is optimistic about Zhou Qiucheng, or it can be said that no one is optimistic about the court." Zhang Chen's mind was full of thoughts, but he still did not waver in his decision to leave. After all, he was not a person without a backer.

His biggest trump card is that the Great Immortal Huli has crossed the Yellow River. As long as he calls for help in advance, the Great Immortal Huli will help him. At worst, there will be no problem taking him away from Jinling City.

He is a twelfth-level strong man, and his bloodline has returned to his ancestral state and revived, awakening the bloodline of his ancestors. He is an unparalleled strong man.

Just when Zhang Chen was having all kinds of thoughts running through his mind, Zhou Zhen came from a distance, greeted Zhang Chen, and then walked out of the pagoda.

Zhang Chen watched Zhou Zhen's back gradually disappear, then he retracted his gaze to the mural on the pagoda, and then he saw that there was an extra pattern on the mural. The pattern was actually the appearance of Zhao Lie, the Pojun Star. Zhao Lie was carrying a star on his back, which was imprinted on the jade disk and looked lifelike.

Time passed little by little, one day, two days, three days...

On the fifth day, Zhang Chen came to Linglong Tower again, and saw an overwhelming and mighty power of incense pouring towards Linglong Tower. He also saw a mysterious light flowing on the Linglong Tower, emitting a trace of indescribable fluctuations, and the whole Linglong Tower seemed to have undergone a subtle change.

"Zhou Qiu has a good trick. He actually wants to follow the path of incense and fire to transform the Linglong Tower from a broken innate spiritual treasure into an incense and fire artifact. Once the Linglong Tower is transformed into an incense and fire artifact, then with the help of the mystery of the path of incense and fire, this Linglong Tower may not be impossible to complete." The Great Freedom Demon suddenly came out, looking at the Linglong Tower surrounded by the scent of incense, with a look of astonishment in his eyes.

"Is there such a saying?" Zhang Chen asked in surprise, "What is the trick for transforming the innate spiritual treasure into an incense artifact?"

"It is a transformation that cannot be described." The Great Freedom Heavenly Demon said: "The incense god is already extraordinary, and with Zhou Qiucheng's soul integrated into it, it has become the spirit of the Linglong Tower. Worshiping him with the incense energy is nourishing the Linglong Tower. At that time, the man and the tower will nourish each other. As long as the power of the incense is sufficient, it will not take long for it to enter the twelfth level, and even restore the power of the Linglong Tower at its peak."

Zhang Chen was stunned when he heard this, staring blankly at the Linglong Pagoda where the incense energy was flowing. Then he saw that the Linglong Pagoda's divine brilliance was revived. After being nourished by the incense energy, the innate restrictions in the entire Linglong Pagoda began to repair themselves continuously.
The power of the incense turned into a strange energy, which continued to bless and irrigate the Linglong Tower.

“The power of incense plays the same role as the innate energy, nourishing the Linglong Tower. However... this incense divine way is created by the thoughts of all living beings, and I’m afraid there are unknown disadvantages.” Zhang Chen’s heart was filled with a trace of worry.

He thought of the poison of all living beings. Even if the Linglong Tower was an innate spiritual treasure, once it was transformed into a divine tool and fell into the hands of acquired mysteries, it would be difficult to escape the harm of the incense poison.

"Zhou Qiucheng's move has set a precedent for all the people in the world who possess innate spiritual treasures. I just don't know whether what he did is right or wrong." Zhang Chen said to himself.
