I cultivated into a god by inhaling incense

This is a completed, short-form BL work that leans heavily into niche metaphysical tropes. Its primary strength lies in the quirky premise; the requirement for the protagonist to inhale fragrance provides a clear, driving motivation for the characters to remain in close proximity, ensuring the romance feels integrated into the plot's magical requirements. The sweet-pet approach makes for a comforting, low-stress reading experience. However, with only 126 chapters, the promised upgrade stream to godhood likely suffers from a compressed timeline, potentially sacrificing the depth of its world-building regarding the gods and monsters mentioned. Furthermore, the lack of significant traction suggests that while the concept is unique, the execution may not have enough narrative weight to sustain a wider audience beyond those specifically seeking a brief, sugary cultivation romance.
