The Sacred Land Is Going Bankrupt, I Invented a Mobile Phone!-Chapter 284

Chapter 284: Ye Chen, How Dare You? (Part 1)

Outside, the news of a newly ascended Great Advancement powerhouse in the Great Mystery Sacred Land was spreading wildly, and their influence surged to an unprecedented level.

On the trending list of Immortal Net Weibo, the top ten spots were all discussions about Elder Jinwu.

The popularity was immense.

Meanwhile, in the forbidden land of the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, Ye Chen was radiating a mysterious and profound aura.

When Ye Chen opened his eyes, they were as deep as a sea of stars, as if they held an entire world within.

Anyone who made eye contact with him would feel their soul drawn in.

“The Secret of the All Character truly deserves to be called a supreme secret technique. But the activation probability is way too low, only one in ten thousand.”

Ye Chen was satisfied with the effects of the Secret of the All Character, but the activation chance was far too slim. However, as he deepened his mastery of the technique, the probability would surely increase.

Ye Chen leisurely stood up, stretching his body, and opened his Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator.

As soon as he disabled the isolation mode, countless messages flooded his screen.

There were messages from his master, asking when he would come out, and from Lin Ke’er, full of concern laced with sarcasm.

There was also a voice message from Gu Yunyun.

Two months ago, Gu Yunyun had exited her retreat after successfully breaking through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Upon learning that Ye Chen was still in retreat, she went to stabilize her cultivation, intending to meet Ye Chen with her niece, Gu Xun’er, once he finished.

Hearing Gu Yunyun’s familiar voice in the message, Ye Chen smiled.

His chosen Dao companion had finally come out of retreat, which was good news. But why did she always bring a third wheel?

After leaving a few words for Gu Yunyun, Ye Chen continued to scroll through the messages. The narcissistic Jade Pond Saint Master had also sent a communication, leaving a voice message.

In her message, the Jade Pond Saint Master urged Ye Chen to stay calm and not worry. If the Great Mystery Sacred Land made a move against Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, Jade Pond would not stand by idly.

A few days ago, she had reconnected with her mother, the renowned Elder Qingcheng, who had been traveling in Mingwang Province for a hundred years.

Elder Qingcheng had broken through to Great Advancement Realm in a secret realm a month ago and would return in three months.

Jade Pond promised to ask her mother for help as a way to repay Ye Chen for his kindness.

After listening to the message, Ye Chen couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

Repay me for my kindness? What kindness did I ever show Jade Pond Saint Master? However, the information she revealed is interesting.

Elder Qingcheng, whom Elder Wang Changchun was infatuated with, had already ascended to Great Advancement?

Looks like Wang Changchun’s chances were slimmer than ever.

Still, would the Great Mystery Sacred Land make a move against me?

Could it be…?

A look of intrigue appeared on Ye Chen’s face.

Too lazy to respond to the Jade Pond Saint Master, Ye Chen continued scrolling through the messages.

The rest were mostly voice messages from the Foreign Affairs Elder, numbering over a hundred in total.

The urgency of the Foreign Affairs Elder was evident.

After listening to a few of the messages, Ye Chen’s smile deepened.

So, the Great Mystery Sacred Land had produced a Great Advancement expert. No wonder they suddenly had the nerve to pluck at the wool of my sheep.

Turns out it was because they had someone backing them up.

But to Ye Chen, Great Advancement was nothing to worry about.

Even when he was at the middle stage of the Deity Transformation Realm, Ye Chen was confident he could contend with, or even suppress, a Great Advancement cultivator.

Now, having perfectly broken through to the late stage of Deity Transformation Realm, his strength had skyrocketed.

He had even birthed a Star River phenomenon and obtained the Secret of the All Character, one of the Nine Secrets.

Ye Chen’s current power was beyond words. A freshly ascended Great Advancement expert didn’t even qualify to be taken seriously.

Moreover, the Great Mystery Sacred Land had borrowed a large sum of spirit stones and been in arrears for three months.

This was also a good thing for Ye Chen.

On one hand, they had walked straight into his trap, and he could use them as an example to warn others.

On the other hand, Ye Chen’s next perfect breakthrough required a small goal of high-grade spirit stones.

He was currently in need of spirit stones, and the Great Mystery Sacred Land’s overdue fee was timely and considerate.

“If I had known they were so eager to court death, I would have loaned them more. A miscalculation!” Shaking his head, Ye Chen closed his Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator and leisurely headed out of the forbidden land.

As soon as he stepped outside, Ye Chen smiled.

The Foreign Affairs Elder was, as expected, waiting at the usual spot. Seeing Ye Chen, the elder’s eyes lit up with surprise and joy.

Several other elders were also waiting nearby.

In her cave, Nangong Wan sensed Ye Chen’s presence. She transformed into a streak of rainbow light, appearing atop the celestial peak in the blink of an eye.

“Greetings, Saint Master,” the elders immediately saluted.

However, their eyes held a hint of curiosity.

What had our Saint Master been doing in this unusually long retreat?

Could it be… he was breaking through?

Although the elders were all at the Nascent Soul Realm, they lacked the ability to discern Ye Chen’s cultivation. But Nangong Wan’s expression shifted.

As a Deity Transformation cultivator, she could feel the terrifying aura radiating from Ye Chen, far more intense than before his retreat.

Her delicate face showed astonishment, and her eyes widened.
