NOVPUBChapter 274: Who Dares to Collect Debt from a Great Advancement Expert? (Part 1)
All 50,000 high-grade spirit stones borrowed were invested completely.
In just a month’s time, new pill rooms and new Earth Fire arrays were completed.
During this month, the entire Cheng family was on edge, afraid they wouldn’t be able to repay the spirit stones to Heavenly Origin Sacred Land in the future.
But once the expansion was completed, the Cheng family’s pill production quickly recovered.
As a prominent alchemy family, the Cheng family’s pills were of high quality.
Now that supply was restored, many cultivators came back to place orders.
This led to the rapid surge in sales on the Cheng family’s online store, and within just a few days, their income had returned to pre-demon chaos levels.
Seeing the profits, smiles filled the faces of the Cheng family members. The elders praised the family head’s decision to expand by taking out a loan.
With the current income of the Cheng family, they would be able to repay all the spirit stones within a year.
“The family head is wise. We were too shortsighted before!”
“This Immortal Loan is truly a great thing! It’s not an exaggeration to say it changed the destiny of our family.”
“If we had delayed expanding any longer, those cultivators who used to buy our pills might have abandoned us. Thank goodness we expanded ahead of time!”
“In just one year, we’ll be able to repay all the debt. The interest is only a little over 1,000 spirit stones, which isn’t small, but compared to what we’ve gained, it’s well worth it!”
The Cheng family was revived, and the family head was beaming with joy.
However, he shook his head and said seriously, “I think, for now, we shouldn’t rush to repay the spirit stones early.
“Our pills are still in short supply. The spirit stones we earn next should be used to further expand production.
“The interest on the Immortal Loan is insignificant compared to the benefits we can gain.”
The elders exchanged glances but felt that their family head made a valid point.
In that case... let’s just keep owing for now.

Due to the previous demon chaos, many forces in the Eastern Sea region were heavily damaged and ruined.
The transformation of the Cheng family caught the attention of many forces.
When they learned that the Cheng family had turned things around thanks to the Immortal Loan, countless forces were tempted.
The Cheng family’s experience proved that the benefits of the loan far outweighed the interest. Debt wasn’t as terrifying as it seemed.
As a result, many forces eagerly took out spirit stone loans from the Immortal Loan to expand their production.
Even forces unaffected by the demon chaos saw the advantages of borrowing spirit stones to develop themselves and chose to take out loans.
For a time, the Immortal Loan became wildly popular among the major forces in Great Yan Province.
On the Immortal Net Weibo, many individual cultivators posted about the benefits the Immortal Loan brought them.
The loan helped them improve their cultivation quickly, drastically increasing their combat power, allowing them to earn spirit stones more easily and repay their debts with ease.
This changed the minds of many cultivators who had previously been afraid to borrow spirit stones, fearing the high interest rates.
When they were short on spirit stones, more and more cultivators opted to borrow from the Immortal Loan.

In the Great Mystery Sacred Land, the Great Mystery Saint Master wasn’t in a good mood as he observed the rising popularity of the Immortal Loan.
He had tried his best to suppress the Immortal Loan before, but it had been a complete failure.
Now, even his own Sacred Land had elders who borrowed spirit stones from the Immortal Loan to purchase high-grade Dao tools.
The Immortal Loan had taken the entire Great Yan Province by storm, becoming an integral part of a cultivator’s life. 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝖔𝔪
Thinking of the interest generated by the loan, the Great Mystery Saint Master knew that Ye Chen would be making an enormous profit once again, and the benefits of the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land would only increase.
This wasn’t good news for Great Mystery Sacred Land.
In the past two years, the number of talented disciples recruited by Great Mystery Sacred Land had drastically decreased because most of the highly talented geniuses were drawn to Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
Even if they were far away, they would travel great distances to join Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
Additionally, most external experts were attracted by Heavenly Origin Sacred Land’s high benefits and became guest elders there.
If this continued, it wouldn’t take many years before Heavenly Origin Sacred Land possessed the power to dominate the entire Great Yan Province.
Even if the other three Sacred Lands joined forces, they might not be able to rival Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
While the Great Mystery Saint Master was lost in thought, the Penalty Elder quickly flew into the main hall, saying, “Lord, Elder Jinwu has exited seclusion and has summoned you!”
Hearing this, the Great Mystery Saint Master’s eyes lit up.
Elder Jinwu was the Supreme Elder of Great Mystery Sacred Land, a late-stage Deity Transformation expert who was once an unrivaled genius.
He had reached the late stage of Deity Transformation six hundred years ago, then traveled to Mingwang Province for a hundred years before returning to enter seclusion.
Now that Elder Jinwu had finally come out of seclusion, the Great Mystery Saint Master could report the situation regarding Heavenly Origin Sacred Land and seek the Supreme Elder’s guidance.
Without hesitation, the Great Mystery Saint Master flew to Jinwu Peak, the highest peak of Great Mystery Sacred Land.
Like a mountain of fire, it was perpetually shrouded in countless Earth Fires, and Elder Jinwu’s cave abode was bathed in flames.
Only Elder Jinwu, who cultivated the Great Sun Scripture, could reside here.
As the Great Mystery Saint Master descended, the cave’s gate opened automatically.
The Great Mystery Saint Master entered.
A middle-aged man with a body as solid as cast iron, muscles bulging and glowing with a bronze hue, sat quietly in the center of the cave.
His hair was fiery red, moving without wind, like boiling divine fire.
His aura was terrifying, with beams of divine light falling around him, resembling a volcano on the verge of eruption.
This man was none other than Elder Jinwu.
