Chapter 279

It was the Secret of the All Character!

Ye Chen had been looking forward to the Secret of the All Character for a long time.

The Secret of the All Character: It can enhance one’s overall combat power tenfold.

Just reading the description made it clear how terrifying the Secret of the All Character was.

Its enhancement wasn’t limited to the physical body. It was comprehensive.

Speed, strength, mana, primordial spirit power, spells, and everything else could be enhanced tenfold in an instant.

Simply put…

With two cultivators with equal combat strength — if one could enhance their power tenfold in all aspects — could easily annihilate the other with a single punch.

Ye Chen, having progressed flawlessly all along, already possessed an astonishing strength that far exceeded the limits.

If his power were further increased tenfold, his combat strength would reach unimaginable heights.

Of course, the Secret of the All Character, being such a powerful technique, wasn’t invincible.

The Secret of the All Character had to be triggered, and the chance of activation was quite low.

In simple terms, the Secret of the All Character relied on luck.

If one was fortunate, they could obliterate their enemy in a single strike.

But if unlucky, it might not even activate before death.

However, as mastery of the Secret of the All Character increased, the likelihood of activation would gradually rise.

Once the technique reached perfection, one could even perceive patterns and make the activation more predictable.

Ye Chen carefully comprehended the Secret of the All Character in his mind and was extremely satisfied.

This secret technique felt much like the critical hit attribute in video games from his previous life — unstable, but highly rewarding once triggered.

Now that he had acquired the Secret of the All Character, he had six of the Nine Secrets in his possession.

It wouldn’t be long before he acquired the remaining three.

Once he had gathered all Nine Secrets, what kind of reward would the system give?

Ye Chen was particularly eager to find out.

—

But to receive such rewards, he would need to achieve perfect breakthroughs.

And now, the perfect breakthrough to the Great Advancement Realm required a fortune in high-grade spirit stones.

The costs would only escalate from here on.

Thus, he needed to accelerate the process of earning spirit stones.

He wondered how the loan business for cultivators was faring.

Were more cultivators turning to borrow spirit stones from the loan system?

Even though Ye Chen had just broken through to the late-stage Deity Transformation Realm, he had no immediate plans to exit seclusion.

With the acquisition of the Secret of the All Character, it was crucial to refine it and convert it into his own combat power.

He activated the closed-mode feature on his Heavenly Origin Little Communicator, which revealed several messages.

Messages from his master.

From Lin Ke’er.

From Gu Yunyun’s niece, Gu Xun’er.

From the Jade Pond Saint Master.

And from the Foreign Affairs Elder.

Ye Chen first left messages for his master and the others, informing them that he needed to remain in seclusion for a while longer.

Then, he opened the message from the Foreign Affairs Elder.

The elder first reported the progress of the overseas shopping business.

The Celestial Sword Sect had shown great cooperation.

The cross-province teleportation array had already begun being set up.

At the same time, the Celestial Sword Sect had started selecting overseas products and submitting them to Heavenly Origin Sacred Land for approval.

Furthermore, the elders of the Celestial Sword Sect hoped that the Sacred Land would authenticate their identities, allowing them access to more features of the Heavenly Origin Little Communicator.

As Ye Chen listened to the Foreign Affairs Elder’s voice message, he nodded in satisfaction.

Though the overseas shopping business was initially just a way to enter the Mingwang Province market, once fully operational, it would generate considerable revenue.

The pleasant cooperation and smooth progress of the teleportation array construction left Ye Chen quite content.

As for the early authentication request, that was easy to handle.

Once Elder Wang Changchun visited Mingwang Province, he could simply take a photo with the Immortal Net Image Stone at the Celestial Sword Sect to verify their identities.

After reporting on the overseas shopping business, the Foreign Affairs Elder left another message a few days later.

In this message, the elder reported that the loan system for cultivators was rapidly expanding.

The number of borrowers had significantly increased, with many factions beginning to take out large loans.

In particular, the Eastern Sea region had seen the greatest uptake of the loan system.

This had led the loan business to finally start turning a profit.

However, the elder expressed concern that the high-level members of the Great Mystery Sacred Land had suddenly all taken out loans, including a late-stage Deity Transformation elder.

In a single day, they had borrowed over five million high-grade spirit stones, raising suspicion.

After all, it was unlikely that the Great Mystery Sacred Land was lacking spirit stones.

Why would their entire leadership suddenly take out loans?

Suspicious activities often hide deeper motives.

In the message, the Foreign Affairs Elder asked for Ye Chen’s advice on how to handle the situation.

After listening to the messages, Ye Chen’s lips curled into a smile.

He checked the loan system’s background records.

Indeed, the senior members of Great Mystery Sacred Land, including its Nascent Soul elders, had borrowed five million superior-grade spirit stones in a single day.

The scene was reminiscent of an entire village exploiting a single loan app in his previous life.

Clearly, Great Mystery Sacred Land had plans to collectively become bad debtors.

Otherwise, their behavior would not be so strange.

Although Ye Chen didn’t understand who had given them the confidence to think they could default on his spirit stones, he wasn’t worried.

If he dared to lend out spirit stones, he was confident in his ability to recover them.

Even before reaching the late-stage Deity Transformation Realm, he had been invincible across Great Yan Province.

Now, having broken through to the late stage and soon to master the Secret of the All Character, his combat power was worlds apart from before.

If anyone dared to owe him spirit stones, even a Sacred Land would be forced to vomit them back, including the principal and penalties.

So, Ye Chen remained calm.

He sent a message back to the Foreign Affairs Elder, telling him not to worry.

Even if Great Mystery Sacred Land defaulted on their debt, standard communication and collection efforts would suffice.

Afterward, Ye Chen set his Heavenly Origin Little Communicator back to seclusion mode.

He sat cross-legged, familiarizing himself with his exponentially growing strength.

At the same time, he began cultivating the newly acquired Secret of the All Character.
