The Sacred Land Is Going Bankrupt, I Invented a Mobile Phone!-Chapter 269
Chapter 269
Entering the forbidden area, in the distance, the Heavenly Origin Immortal Scroll radiated divine light, releasing strands of immortal energy.
It truly lived up to being an immortal weapon.
It easily handled the entire data transmission work of the Great Yan Province without overheating.
Unfortunately, immortal weapons were tools of the immortal path, and ordinary cultivators weren’t qualified to wield them.
Only those at the Tribulation Realm could temporarily control immortal weapons.
However, with his mastery of the Secret of Weapon Character, he might be able to control the immortal weapon earlier than that.
If he could carry the immortal weapon with him by the Great Advancement Realm, then he would truly be invincible.
With anticipation, Ye Chen sat down cross-legged.
He activated the Pay-to-Win Cultivation System.
The breakthrough option immediately appeared.
【Host’s cultivation: Mid-Stage Deity Transformation!】
【Can breakthrough to Late-Stage Deity Transformation, please select breakthrough level:
Ordinary breakthrough: One million high-grade spirit stones (Choosing this will affect potential, preventing further breakthrough beyond the Mid-Stage Great Advancement Realm!)
Excellent breakthrough: Five million high-grade spirit stones (Choosing this will affect potential, preventing further breakthrough beyond the Mid-Stage Heavenly Immortal!)
Perfect breakthrough: Fifty million high-grade spirit stones (Choosing this won’t affect future breakthroughs, with a random reward included!)】
Without hesitation, Ye Chen directly chose the perfect breakthrough.
Instantly, fifty million high-grade spirit stones in his storage ring disappeared like a mountain vanishing.
What kind of secret from the Nine Secrets would he receive this time from the breakthrough?
Would a new phenomenon appear in his sea of consciousness after the breakthrough?
With great anticipation, Ye Chen calmed his mind.
He officially began his breakthrough…

In Mingwang Province, the Supreme Sect, the Celestial Sword Sect, occupied vast lands.
Within the sect, countless sword lights flashed, and sword energy surged into the sky.
At the center of the Celestial Sword Sect stood a towering peak.
However, the peak had an extremely peculiar top.
It was perfectly smooth, as if it had been cut off by someone.
The sword energy there was incredibly sharp and bone-chilling.
If an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator were swept by that sword energy, they would surely perish.
In the central hall, all the elders of the Celestial Sword Sect, except the Grand Elder in the Great Advancement Realm, were present.
Their sect leader, Yan Bailu, had returned.
“Congratulations to the Sect Leader for obtaining the divine object. Soon, the sword formation will be perfected.”
“Once the Great Annihilation Sword Formation is completed, the destructive sword energy will enhance the Sect Leader’s physique, and there will be hope for future achievements in the Great Advancement Realm.”
“The Sect Leader truly deserves to be the number one genius of the Celestial Sword Sect, able to slay the Golden Lion King, who had the bloodline of an ancient divine beast.”
The elders were full of praise, happy for Yan Bailu.
Yan Bailu shook his head, “The Golden Lion King wasn’t killed by me, but by the Heavenly Origin Saint Master of the Great Yan Province.
“The Heavenly Origin Saint Master is only in the Mid-Stage Deity Transformation Realm, yet he managed to kill the Golden Lion King, who was in the Nascent Soul Late-Stage. His combat power is astonishing.”
Upon hearing this, the elders’ eyes widened.
It wasn’t unheard of for a genius to defeat someone of a higher level.
Their sect leader was such a genius.
But the fact that such a genius existed in the mere Great Yan Province was beyond their expectations.
After all, Mingwang Province was the center of the cultivation world.
They viewed cultivators from other provinces as country bumpkins.
Moreover, because of the flourishing cultivation civilization in Mingwang Province, even if cultivators were of the same rank, their combat power usually far surpassed those from other states.
Their arrogance was well-founded.
The surprise was short-lived, as cultivators from Mingwang Province didn’t care much about other provinces.
The elders soon got back to the main issue.
“Sect Leader, last year, our Celestial Sword Sect’s spirit mine was exhausted, producing less than half of what it did in previous years, drastically reducing our income.
“This year, the sect’s income isn’t enough to cover the cost of forging heart swords and maintaining sect operations.
“We are short by 50,000 high-grade spirit stones, so we’ve temporarily filled the gap with stones from the treasury.
“But if this continues, we’ll be completely broke within a hundred years, with no foundation left.”
When the elder finished speaking, everyone looked worried.
Yan Bailu was young, and they hadn’t expected him to have a solution. They were only waiting for her return out of respect.
An elder suggested, “We should cut costs. How about we lower the Floating Immortal Mountains within the sect? The annual cost of 10,000 spirit stones is a waste.
“The sect’s spirit-gathering formation could also be reduced.
“And we could reduce the benefits given to the elders.
“But we can’t cut the disciples’ benefits any further. This year, we’ve already recruited fewer new disciples than usual.”
