Chapter 285
Looking at everyone’s expressions, Ye Chen smiled faintly and didn’t keep them in suspense. He spoke casually, “I did indeed break through to the late stage of Deity Transformation Realm during this retreat.”
As Ye Chen’s words fell, the entire area fell into silence.
All the elders were filled with disbelief.
Our Saint Master… had really broken through again?
It’s been less than half a year since the last breakthrough of the Saint Master.
This is simply unbelievable.
The elders were all shocked numb by the increasingly outrageous speed of the breakthroughs.
But after so many previous experiences, the elders were able to accept it quite quickly.
After the initial shock, their emotions soon calmed.
Everyone immediately congratulated, “Congratulations to the Saint Master on advancing further and breaking through to the late Deity Transformation Realm.”
However, Nangong Wan’s delicate face was full of astonishment.
She was shocked by Ye Chen’s breakthrough speed, but also delighted by his success.
Yet, when she recalled the previous bet in her mind, Nangong Wan’s face flushed, and panic flickered in her eyes.
The next moment, Nangong Wan, without saying a word, turned and ran.
She transformed into a streak of rainbow light and hid back in her cave.
This scene left the group of elders a bit confused.
The Saint Master had just broken through.
Why would the Supreme Elder say nothing and suddenly run off?
Ye Chen watched as his master fled in a panic, his face full of smiles.
You can avoid it once, but you can’t avoid it forever.
It was clear that his master had no way to escape the bet.
“Saint Master!
“The Great Mystery Sacred Land…”
After a brief moment of shock, the Foreign Affairs Elder remembered the important matter and reported gravely, waiting for Ye Chen’s decision.
But before he could finish, Ye Chen waved his hand. “I already know about the Great Mystery Sacred Land.
“No one can owe my Heavenly Origin Sacred Land spirit stones and not repay them.
“Even those in the Great Advancement Realm are no exception.”
Ye Chen’s words made the group of elders widen their eyes in astonishment.
After the news of Elder Jinwu’s breakthrough into the Great Advancement Realm, they had already given up on recovering the five million spirit stones.
Moreover, with Great Mystery Sacred Land’s rising power, they were sure to be tempted by the profits generated by Heavenly Origin’s Little Spirit Communicator.
This was no longer a situation where simply letting go of the five million high-grade spirit stones would settle things.
It was now about how they would protect their original interests against a Great Advancement powerhouse in the future.
In this situation, their Saint Master was still planning to collect debts?
This… was somewhat ridiculous.
Ye Chen didn’t mind the expressions of the elders and casually said, “I just checked the Immortal Net’s blacklist section.
“I didn’t see the names of the Great Mystery Sacred Land’s higher-ups.
“Post the names and photos of everyone who owes debts to the Great Mystery Sacred Land, including Elder Jinwu.”
Hearing this, the elders fell silent once more.
To publicly post the name of a Great Advancement powerhouse on Immortal Net, exposing it to all the cultivators in Great Yan Province, was a blatant slap in the face.
This action would undoubtedly enrage Daoist Jinwu.
Great Advancement powerhouses were truly beings capable of destroying the heavens and earth.
Although their Saint Master could battle across realms, having now broken through to the late Deity Transformation Realm, there was still an entire major realm between Deity Transformation Realm and Great Advancement Realm.
Moreover, Daoist Jinwu wasn’t someone who barely scraped through with life-extending pills.
He was in his prime, accompanied by celestial phenomena when using his divine powers.
His strength was undoubtedly far beyond imagination.
The Foreign Affairs Elder hesitated and spoke, “Saint Master, isn’t this a bit reckless?
“After all, Great Mystery Sacred Land now has a Great Advancement powerhouse. It would be best if we could avoid conflict.
“I think we don’t need to provoke them.
“As for the loss of five million high-grade spirit stones, it really isn’t much to our Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.”
Ye Chen laughed upon hearing this.
Five million top-grade spirit stones weren’t much, but to Ye Chen, spirit stones were cultivation.
Owing him spirit stones and not repaying was no small matter.
Ye Chen understood what the elders were concerned about and casually waved his hand. “That Daoist Jinwu is insignificant!
“I could crush him with ease.
“Go ahead and do as I said. Post their names in the blacklist section.
“And issue one final payment reminder.
“If they don’t repay the spirit stones by tomorrow, start the forced collection process.”
After speaking, Ye Chen didn’t care about the elders’ reactions and leisurely flew toward the cave.
The group of elders looked at each other in disbelief.
The Foreign Affairs Elder hesitated for a long time.
Finally, he gritted his teeth. “We’ll do as the Saint Master instructed!
“If we provoke them, so be it.
“Great Mystery Sacred Land will definitely make a move against our Heavenly Origin Sacred Land. Instead of waiting passively, we should strike first.
“Our Heavenly Origin Sacred Land isn’t without its trump cards.
“If we can force Daoist Jinwu to come out before stabilizing his realm, we’ll weaken him.
“And even if we can’t win, we can seal the mountain.
“At the Saint Master’s breakthrough speed, within ten years, he may reach Great Advancement, and at that time, Great Mystery Sacred Land will pay the price.”
Upon hearing this, the elders’ faces lit up with fighting spirit.
Indeed, there was no avoiding it.
Since that was the case, why not fight?
Cowering would only bring shame.

On Immortal Net Weibo, aside from discussing Elder Jinwu, cultivators were also quite interested in the recently added blacklist section.
In the blacklist section, there were seven names, all having failed to repay spirit stones for over three months.
It was said that forced collection was about to begin.
People could only marvel at how bold some cultivators were, daring to default on spirit stones owed to Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
But today, the blacklist saw some changes.
Over twenty new names were added.
[Defaulting force: Great Mystery Sacred Land.]. [Defaulting cultivators: Great Mystery Saint Master.]. [Daoist Jinwu!]. [Penalties…].All cultivators stared in shock at the list.
Great Mystery Sacred Land owed Heavenly Origin Sacred Land that many spirit stones?
