This Incense Burner Was No Ordinary Thing

After Ning Qi went inside, he observed the situation.

There's nothing on this floor.

So, we went straight upstairs.

After getting up here, I started to check the situation.

All I found was a row of bookshelves and an old-fashioned wooden box.

Using his Divine Sense to investigate, he discovered that the box had no Restriction.

I simply opened it and saw that there wasn't much inside, just some basic Ancient Books.

However, it looks like it has already been tampered with.

Some of them had already been opened, and in some places it was obvious that they had been taken by someone.

So it seems I'm not the first person to come here.

Ning Qi thought for a moment, then looked upstairs; there was nothing on this floor.

Let's go down to the next floor and find out.

They then easily made their way to the third floor.

This floor is the top floor.

Ning Qi began to survey the situation on this floor.

Unlike the two floors below, there are two or three Side Room, and none of them are locked.

After he walked over, he found that the door could be opened easily.

He then simply pulled the lock open and easily walked in.

After he went inside, he found that the Side Room was a place for people to rest.

There was only a bed, nothing else.

However, Ning Qi still used his Divine Sense to observe and make sure there was nothing wrong before going to the next room.

Upon reopening, it was discovered to be a place for people to cultivate themselves.

Compared to the rest area, the two places are clearly distinct.

There is an incense burner here that can gather energy.

I don't know how many years have passed, but there are still incense sticks burning.

Wisps of green smoke rose from it, slowly spreading throughout the Side Room.

"This fragrance is definitely not ordinary."

Ning Qi quickly made a judgment.

If it were ordinary incense, it would probably have gone out long ago.

Even the better ones will probably die out in no more than a hundred years.

And this has been going on for far more than a century.

This Inheritance alone has been going on for countless years.

"Call."

Ning Qi walked over and bent down to get closer to the incense burner.

I sniffed it a few times.

He inhaled the aroma and savored the smell of the fireworks.

After the incense entered his body, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

The Immortal-Demon Power within him, which had been dormant for a long time, actually began to stir.

These things originally required his personal activation to be put into operation.

Unexpectedly, the fragrance from the incense burner caused the Immortal-Demon Power within his body to circulate on their own.

That's not all; he attempted to circulate the Immortal-Demon Power.

Suddenly, I realized that my power seemed to have been enhanced.

He had only used 30% of his strength, but unexpectedly he was able to unleash at least 70% of his power.

"So, the power has doubled?"

Ning Qi was no longer calm.

I never imagined that such an ordinary incense burner could have such an effect.

He also knew very well that it wasn't entirely due to the incense burner; more importantly, it was the incense inside that was working.

The two complement each other, enabling him to have this feeling.

"Good!"

Ning Qi smiled, and then carefully picked up the incense burner.

I wanted to see what was inside.

However, to his surprise, after picking up the incense burner, his hand actually stopped.

What's going on? I was clearly trying my best to pick it up, so why did my hand stop?

Ning Qi felt something was strange and looked puzzled.

A pair of eyes were fixed on the incense burner in front of him.

After a moment, he tried to put the incense burner down.

Another unexpected situation occurred; this time, it took him a full two hours to finally put the incense burner down.

"Call!"

At this moment, Ning Qi took a deep breath.

After setting down the incense burner, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

There's definitely something wrong with this incense burner.

Ning Qi squinted, observing the incense burner in front of him.

Then, he activated a wisp of Immortal Power within his body and suddenly struck the incense burner.

"Buzz."

The incense burner suddenly emitted a burst of brilliant light.

The flash of light shattered his Immortal Power.

"Great, there's actually Formation involved!"

Ning Qi then understood.

But what kind of Formation could slow him down so much?

He stared at the incense burner, lost in thought.

However, I just can't figure it out.

Finally, the Divine Sense explored into its own Sea of Consciousness.

It directly awakened the dormant Divine Soul of Shi Xiaokun that had been lying dormant there.

"Shi Xiaokun!"

Seeing that he didn't react, Ning Qi called out again.

"Owner!"

Shi Xiaokun then woke up and adopted a respectful expression.

How are things going on your end? Are you able to focus on anything else?

Ning Qi didn't rush to say anything to him, but instead asked a question first.

"Everything's fine right now, we're resting."

Shi Xiaokun replied earnestly, "Master, how are you?"

"I'm fine; I'm already on my way to the Inheritance Land."

Ning Qi said with a smile.

"Ah? You've already found the Inheritance Land?"

Upon hearing his words, Shi Xiaokun immediately showed a look of surprise.

I never expected him to find this Inheritance Land so quickly.

"Yes, it's been found."

Ning Qi nodded, then explained, "I had already found it when I parted ways with you."

"Master, you're too fast!"

Shi Xiaokun had barely realized what was happening when he immediately said, "So, you deliberately separated from us!"

"That's right, I deliberately separated myself from you!"

Ning Qi didn't deny it. "Although we have a cooperative relationship, I don't need to tell them everything."

"If you can keep something for yourself, there's no need to tell them, right?"

"Yes, but is it dangerous here? Are you okay alone?"

"Do you need me to use my Inner Realm to teleport here?"

Shi Xiaokun was somewhat worried and asked several questions in succession.

"No need, you can just stay outside and be with them."

"You can also tell me immediately if anything happens outside!"

Ning Qi shook his head, refusing outright.

"Okay, I understand."

Shi Xiaokun agreed, then added, "Master, I'll head back now."

"Wait!"

Ning Qi quickly called out to him.

"Master, is there anything else you need to tell me?"

Shi Xiaokun asked.

"After you come out, could you watch something for me?"

Ning Qi didn't explain and just told him to come out.

"Good!"

After Shi Xiaokun agreed, he walked out directly.

When he came out, he saw the scene before him.

The bamboo house also has an incense burner and a place for meditation.

"When I first picked up this incense burner, time seemed to stand still."

Ning Qi pointed to the incense burner and said, "Originally, I didn't think anything could have happened to him."

"However, I just tested it, and he actually set up Formation inside!"

"After my experiment, I still don't know what kind of Formation it is, so I asked you to take a look and see what's going on."

"Understood, I'll take a look right away!"

After agreeing, Shi Xiaokun flew off immediately.

We arrived at the incense burner.

A pair of eyes were intently fixed on the incense burner.

"I'll try using my Immortal Power again!"

Ning Qi knew that he was merely a divine Divine Soul and naturally had no ability to unleash Immortal Power.

So, if we want to try again, we'll need him to step in.

"Good!"

Shi Xiaokun agreed and then began to observe carefully.

"Call!"

Ning Qi unleashed another burst of Immortal Power.

It suddenly landed on the incense burner below.

In the blink of an eye, the incense burner emitted a beam of light.

"Whoosh!"

A burst of light flashed, and in the blink of an eye, it shattered Ning Qi's Immortal Power once again.

"So, did you find anything?"

Ning Qi didn't disturb him, but simply waited to the side.

After a moment, he asked.

"Master, this is also Time-Difference Formation, but it slows down time!"

Shi Xiaokun then came to his senses and continued, "This is even more ancient than the Time-Difference Formation."

"I never expected to encounter such a Time-Difference Formation here!"

"Oh? You recognize this kind of Formation?"

Ning Qi immediately became interested upon hearing this.

A pair of eyes looked at him, filled with curiosity.

If he knows him too, then things will be much easier.

If we let him study this Formation again, it will definitely be of great use in the future.

The goal is to slow down time in a certain space, without affecting oneself as the caster.

Imagine what would happen.

When we face the enemy, we will have an absolute advantage.

In fact, if you memorize these two Formation, you can escape much faster.

On the one hand, it slows down the enemy; on the other hand, it makes itself faster.

Combined with his own If Water Three Thousand Formation.

It can also suppress enemies and enhance one's own strength.

In this way, escaping is as easy as playing a game; even someone far stronger than oneself can be easily overtaken.

"I've heard of it, but to truly master it, I'll need to study it carefully."

"The incense ash used here is also rare; it can stimulate a person's potential."

"It can at least double a person's fighting power."

Shi Xiaokun continued, "If we put this in, along with the Time-Difference Formation, it won't be burned to ashes even if time goes by."

"Okay, then you can take it and study it."

"Tell me and Medicine Spirit once you've completed the research."

"With the enhancement of this Formation, our strength won't increase by much."

"But no one can match our ability to escape."

Ning Qi nodded and said with a smile.

"Yes, that's definitely a good idea!"

Shi Xiaokun agreed wholeheartedly.

"Alright, go back and study it carefully."

Ning Qi then added.

"Yes, Master!"

Shi Xiaokun nodded and agreed earnestly.

"Okay, that's settled then!"

Ning Qi reminded him, "Hurry back!"

"I've placed him in a sect within the Inner Realm; you can retrieve him anytime!"

"Clear!"

Shi Xiaokun agreed, and then suddenly disappeared.

Ning Qi wasn't idle either; he stopped banging on the incense burner.

They simply lifted up all the bamboo panels beneath the incense burner.

Suddenly, the Inner Realm passage was opened, and he was transported all the way to the sect.

It was placed in the place where Shi Xiaokun usually cultivated before returning.

They returned to the meditation Side Room.

Seeing the scene before him, he looked grave.

There's nothing of value left here.

After searching around without finding anything, he left the Side Room.

We were moved to another room.

This is the last room on this floor.

After he entered, he discovered that it was actually a Side Room where medicinal pills were stored.

Nothing else is wrong.

There are many kinds of elixirs here, all neatly packaged in bottles and jars.

Ning Qi had originally planned to take a bottle to see what kind of pills were inside.

However, just as he was about to touch the bottle, he was suddenly startled by a wave of Light Wave.

Ning Qi couldn't help but laugh.

The medicines here are also protected by Formation and Restriction.

It's obviously impossible to open it at will.

"I don't have time to waste with you guys."

Ning Qi had little interest in medicine.

After saying that, he suddenly activated the Immortal Power within his body.

A gust of wind suddenly erupted, pulling them all into his Storage Bag.

These drugs will not retaliate unless provoked.

They will only retaliate when you try to open them up.

After Ning Qi put everything away, he left the Side Room.

We left directly and arrived outside the bamboo house.

Only then did they turn their attention to the area around the bamboo house.

Behind the bamboo house was a medicinal herb garden.

He stepped forward to assess the situation.

They discovered that this place was full of spirit medicine.

However, they have all withered.

There was not a trace of life.

"What a pity, he must have been heavenly materials and earthly treasures in life."

Ning Qi said with a hint of regret.

However, he quickly realized something.

So, he took out his Jade Pendant and used telepathy to contact the Medicine Spirit.

"Call!"

A moment later, the illusory figure of the Medicine Spirit appeared before him.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Medicine Spirit was somewhat puzzled.

How's things going on your end?

Ning Qi asked directly.

"We didn't find anything here, just some useless stuff."

"I feel like we can leave here now."

"Let's go check out the other island and see what's going on!"

"I'll tell you Medicine Spirit quickly said.

"Since you're alright, come over here."

"I found a bamboo house here, and I saw many spirit medicine ahead."

"But they've all withered. Come and see if your Life Essence can save them."

1

"If we could, it would be a great help to us!"

Ning Qi listened to his words and then made the arrangements.

"Oh? Okay, I'll be right there."

Upon hearing his reminder, Medicine Spirit immediately interrupted their telepathic communication.

Ning Qi shook his head, then put the Jade Pendant away.

So we started waiting here for the Medicine Spirit to arrive.

An hour later, Medicine Spirit finally arrived riding Ants.

"Owner!"

He had just arrived when I greeted him from afar.

Then, it eagerly leaped over.

Why did it take so long?

Ning Qi asked.

"We came across some Ruins ahead, so we took a look."

"That's what Medicine Spirit explained."

"Any discoveries?"

Ning Qi then asked.

Anything that can attract Medicine Spirit must be useful.

He's the kind of person who won't do anything without personal gain.

"No, so I came as soon as possible."

Medicine Spirit shook her head, then focused her attention on the spirit medicine in front of her.

"So, can you spot the problem?"

Seeing that he had gone to observe the situation, Ning Qi then asked seriously.

The Medicine Spirit is also forged from rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Therefore, they are of the same origin, and it would be no problem for him to see through the clues.

"Let me see."

Medicine Spirit didn't answer his question, but walked straight over.
