Su Wen stood aside, listening quietly to the conversation.

From the conjectures about the Star God and the Theater God, he also derived several key terms.

For example, the Holy Spirit Clan; this might be the key factor he needs to pay close attention to.

[Wealthy God of Wealth of Wealth! During your conversation with the Shadow God, you discussed matters concerning the Holy Spirit Clan.]

[The Shadow God knew very little about the Holy Spirit Clan.]

[All she knew was that the Theater God seemed to have made some kind of deal with the Holy Spirit Clan before his fall, but the Theater God didn't reveal the specifics of the deal, and they were unaware of it.]

[As he spoke, Shadow God flipped his right hand, and a dozen black-covered books appeared before you.]

[These books are "The Evolution of the Techniques of the Heavenly Mandate Bearer", "Encyclopedic Interpretation of Heavenly Mandate Bearer", etc.]

[These dozen or so books about the Heavenly Mandate Lineage represent the culmination of the Heavenly Mandate Bearer lineage's development in this era, including techniques for the Heavenly Mandate Bearer's use of power, as well as the connection and application of supernatural abilities.]

[You also know the importance of these crystals, so you decisively activated a high-level spell: Instant Memorization.]

[Just as you were about to continue copying the Heavenly Mandate Bearer ' theoretical books, the Shadow God's expression changed.]

[The next moment, you feel the world change; everything around you with color turns pitch black, making it impossible to perceive your surroundings or their structure with your eyes.]

[This is the Shadow Kingdom created by the Shadow God.]

[However, due to the previous battle, the Shadow God's foundation was damaged, and the Shadow Kingdom was also on the verge of collapse.]

[You wander aimlessly through the Shadow God's Shadow Kingdom. You know very well that something big must have happened to cause such a drastic change in the Shadow God's emotions, and to bring you into the Shadow Kingdom without even giving you a chance to explain!]

[Judging from your numerous deaths, it's likely that top experts from the Arrow Realm discovered the God of God of Wealth's Descender through various methods, and thus came to kill you.]

[Oh, God of Wealth, so calm and unperturbed! You show no surprise whatsoever at the strange events in the Arrow Realm and your impending demise.]

[Considering the time and reflecting on your gains from this trip to the Sub-Space-Time, you nodded in agreement, feeling it was time for you to return.]

[After all, you're only Third Rank God of Wealth of Wealth, and the Wealth Source you spend traversing time are minimal, so the River of Space-Time probably won't protect you for long.]

[You greedy God of God of Wealth, judging others by your own petty standards! How can you presume to understand the thoughts of the vast River of Space-Time based on your own subjective assumptions?]

[Your major client's transaction volume this time is so large, and the resulting Wealth Source are also substantial.]

[The transaction even involved senior personnel within the River of Space-Time, leading them to offer you an extra USB River of Space-Time as compensation for their misjudgment.]

[So how could you possibly place the matter of enmity and warfare on the head of the River of Space-Time?]

[As the saying goes, there's always someone stronger. The enemy battling the Shadow God Shadow God is formidable to him, but to the River of Space-Time, it's merely a matter of a slap.]

[Even the River of Space-Time in this world, considering your ability to transcend time and space, has decided to grant you a 90% discount.]

[Opportunities are fleeting, so be God of Wealth to seize them!]

[So, wealthy and understanding God of Wealth of Wealth, would you be willing to offer a meager amount of Wealth Source to the River of Space-Time, requesting that vast and unknowable River of Space-Time to resolve everything for you?]

[First, by paying the Wealth Source, the River of Space-Time will follow your will and help you eliminate all your enemies.]

[Secondly, they clutched their own pockets tightly, watching helplessly as the heavily wounded Shadow God fought against powerful enemies from the outside world until his death.]

Su Wen: "..."

Is this deadpan Narrator a form of moral blackmail?

And the way they're saying it all makes perfect sense; is the Narrator someone from the other side of the River of Space-Time?

It must be!

Otherwise, as they spend more money, the Narrator's tone changes from mocking to fawning.

After the narrator expressed doubts about the service provided by the River of Space-Time, Narrator anxious he almost jumped up.

Especially the last few sentences, which use all sorts of methods, just to make him spend more Wealth Source to ask the River of Space-Time to take action.

Seeing the Narrator's actions, he suddenly wondered if the River of Space-Time had noticed he still had some balance in his account and wanted to continue exploiting him.

After all, thanks to the Wealth Flows In " talent, he had just received 80,000 in Wealth Source.

That ability to amass wealth is something I should learn from!

[You stingy God of Wealth! You have made an extremely unwise choice, and this choice may very well lead to the complete end of your time-travel journey.]

[River of Space-Time is very satisfied with your previous large transactions.]

[However, River of Space-Time is very dissatisfied with your current stingy behavior.]

[Oh, you're such a strong-willed God of Wealth of Wealth! You know your status as a major client, so you don't care about the opinions or thoughts of the River of Space-Time.]

[It's just a little unfortunate for you, though. To protect you, the Shadow God took you into the Shadow World, so you don't know what the attacking enemies look like or what information they have.]

[Seemingly sensing this, and also to let you in the Main Space-Time know about Huaxia's enemies in advance, a projection of a fierce battle appears before you.]

[Through the projection, you also notice the approaching enemy.]

[The twenty-eight figures, clad in golden feathered robes, appeared to originate from the same powerful force, and their supernatural abilities and techniques in battle against the Shadow God were identical.]

[For some reason, you suddenly thought of the Holy Spirit Clan.]

[After all, apart from the Holy Spirit Clan, you really can't think of any other race that could uniformly cultivate such a large number of Emperor Rank Limit.]

[And the Shadow God, in his ultimate ascension, unleashed a combat power that was actually on par with the twenty-eight Emperor Rank Limit warriors.]

[Just as you hesitated, the voice of the Shadow God entered your mind.]

[Brother God of God of Wealth, do you have the ability to self-destruct?]

[I am very aware of my current strength, so my opponent must be suppressing their power, afraid of killing me completely.]

[In other words, the arrival of this Emperor Rank Limit is intended to capture you alive.]

[As for Brother Battle God Battle God, I can sense intense and violent power of rules surging in the Mountain and Sea Main Battlefield, so we can't count on him.]

[Oh, wise God of Wealth of Wealth! You explained your suspicions about the Holy Spirit Clan to the Shadow God Shadow God, who, after a moment of silence, sighed softly.]

[The next moment, terrifying shadow power rises around you.]

[Dear God of God of Wealth, take care!]

[As soon as those words were spoken, terrifying shadow power erupted instantly, crushing you into nothingness.]

You are dead.

[The current River of Space-Time keenly senses that you are not a being of this time and space, and refuses to accept your soul and true spirit. After allocating a wisp of spacetime power to protect you, it begins to notify the River of Space-Time of your current time.]

[The River of Space-Time of this universe has received a notification: a wisp of spacetime power is extending out, preparing to guide your soul and true spirit back.]
