After receiving confirmation from the River of Fate, Su Wen directly conveyed his thoughts to Sycee.

He agreed to the conditions River of Space-Time!

Judging from the way the debate between Star God and Baili Chaoge is going to go on, it probably won't end anytime soon.

Therefore, he felt he needed to distract himself and go to the Trading Space to meet the Incumbent Shadow God.

By now, he had a fairly good understanding of the events of the Eighth Era.

The purpose of this meeting with the Incumbent Shadow God on duty was simply to have a chat, to reveal some secrets to him, and to prepare him mentally for resurrection.

"Yes, God of God of Wealth."

Sycee spoke calmly, but Su Wen sensed a hint of excitement in his voice.

So the River of Space-Time definitely gave Sycee a share of the profits, right?

It's okay. The money that's now in Sycee's little gold vault will eventually be used to unleash a big move.

So, right under the noses of the Star God and Baili Chaoge, Su Wen sent a wisp of his consciousness into the Trading Space.

"Buzz!"

The instant Su Wen entered the Trading Space, a wisp of pitch-black light flickered in the sky, accompanied by the surrounding shimmering silver-white light.

Soon, a woman with long black hair, wearing black shadow armor, and looking heroic appeared in front of Su Wen.

The newcomer was none other than the Incumbent Shadow God!

Because he had seen the Slaughter Clone of the Incumbent Shadow God in the Sub-Space-Time, Su Wen remembered the appearance of the Incumbent Shadow God quite clearly.

"I never thought I'd be in this situation."

The Incumbent Shadow God looked around, observed carefully for a moment, and then said to Su Wen, "You must be the Incumbent God of Wealth in the Ninth Era?"

A Xing should have already told you about my situation, so I'll just briefly introduce myself!

My name is Jiu Ying!

Across from him, Su Wen said with a smile, "I spent some time with your Slaughter Clone, and even the God of Wealth Mark created by the Eighth Epoch God of Wealth was taught to me by your Slaughter Clone."

Jiu Ying's eyes flickered, and she said with a smile, "Really? It seems we're quite destined to meet."

The Slaughter Clone is a branch of divine power that I split off from the Incumbent Shadow God's authority.

In other words, she didn't know which of her Slaughter Clone had spoken with the Incumbent God of Wealth.

After all, he had quite a few Slaughter Clone of himself.

"It really is quite a coincidence."

Su Wen nodded and said, "Perhaps because of the closest proximity, the Ninth Era received the most gifts from your Eighth Era, from beginning to end."

Upon hearing this, Jiu Ying asked with some curiosity, "What kind of gifts are included?"

Then, Su Wen went on to talk about the Star God's foundation, the Theater God's gifts, and even the standard armory that the Jiu Ying casually built in the Main Realm.

"Well!"

Suddenly, Jiu Ying let out a heavy sigh.

"I learned from A Xing that you Ninth Era Divine Mandate Bearer are living a very miserable life."

"But this time when we meet again, the aura you exude is quite extraordinary."

"Although I don't know what methods you used, and I can't discern your cultivation level, I think... you must be above True God, right?"

"So, it seems like many years have passed since A Xing arrived here, hasn't it?"

She awakened as Demigod, and although she subsequently suffered a series of persecutions such as being hunted down, slandered, and besieged, her upbringing was relatively smooth.

At least compared to the hellish start of the Ninth Age, that's the case.

Of course, the biggest reason for her success is her considerable strength.

Starting as Demigod allowed her to avoid many open and hidden attacks, and also prevented her from feeling powerless when facing certain situations.

Therefore, even she, a mere Zero Rank awakened Incumbent God of Wealth, couldn't fathom how the other party had managed to evade all sorts of visible and invisible traps before finally reaching this point.

"About twenty years!"

Looking at Jiu Ying, Su Wen sighed, "Time flies! More than twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye."

Jiu Ying: "..."

She was initially quite distressed for the Ninth Era, Incumbent True God on duty sound a bit like Versailles?

Is this the God of Wealth or the Wind God?

More than twenty years?

To grow from an ordinary being to the pinnacle in just over twenty years... that's like cheating, isn't it?

If you calculate the time, more than twenty years after I awakened as a Shadow God, it seems I'm still stuck in the True God Realm, right?

Even so, that's already incredibly fast progress, isn't it?

"It seems I underestimated you."

Jiu Ying smiled and shook his head, then asked, "Now that you've reached this level, is there something important you want to tell me? Or do you need some crucial intelligence from our Eighth Era?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wen replied directly, "It's nothing major, I just happened to be free today, so I came here to see you."

"?"

"And then! I'll tell you something, so you can be mentally prepared."

"What's up?"

"I might have to resurrect you after some time."

"??"

A series of question marks floated above Jiu Ying's head. What the heck?

Resurrect yourself?

But before she could ask a question, Su Wen had already shut her down.

"Now that we are in the Ninth Era, the Incumbent Theater God is in place, the Current Battle God is still a bit lacking in experience, but with a little manipulation, it'll be close enough. After the Incumbent God of Sleep is resurrected, it will probably be your turn."

"???"

Jiu Ying's face grew increasingly puzzled. Had she heard correctly?

Has the Ninth Era already resurrected the Incumbent Theater God?

Etc!

For a moment, she couldn't quite process it!

In other words, by the time she is resurrected, the Ninth Era will already have four Incumbent True God?

Including her, that makes five!

"At that time, all six of us on duty will work together."

Su Wen continued, "Barring any major unforeseen events, the surrounding universe can probably be destroyed."

Jiu Ying took a deep breath and quickly asked, "What you're saying is confusing me. Counting you and Bu, there are only five on duty? Where did this six come from?"

Su Wen said with a smile, "There's something I forgot to mention: the Incumbent Star God is still alive."

Jiu Ying: "..."

All right!

It seems that she, the Incumbent Shadow God, still knows too little about her own universe.

Hmm... A Xing's previous guess was correct. The fact that no information was left from the Second Era and that it was so mysterious must have been arranged by the Incumbent Star God.

As expected, the Incumbent Star God was still alive.

"Six people on duty at the same time... I can't even imagine what that scene would be like!"

Jiu Ying looked up at the sky, a hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes.

If they had done this earlier, how could they have lost the Eighth Era?

"By the way, how come your Undying Legion is so powerful?"

Su Wen suddenly remembered something and asked, "And the price for your resurrection is also the most expensive."

There must be a reason for that, right?

Jiu Ying thought for a moment and then said, "This is probably related to my authority during my duty period; that should be it."

As she spoke, Jiu Ying added, "As long as I live, my Undying Legion will not be destroyed. Even God King, even if they use the power of rules, cannot eradicate it at its root!"

"This is also the main reason why I was able to achieve results."

"However, the sacrifices made were also painful and unavoidable."
