    Chapter 364: It’s Not As Simple As You Think

    [Kind-hearted God of Wealth! A friendly reminder from the river of time: your current thoughts are quite risky.]

    [The Remnant Clan altar was created by the most powerful beings in the cosmos and was sent into your universe using the immense will of the cosmos.]

    [Its goal is to subtly corrupt the promising beings in this realm.]

    [So, you really shouldn’t be thinking this way.]

    [Of course, since the Remnant Clan is your enemy—a major obstacle on your path to power—it’s only natural that you’d want to understand their tactics and plans.]

    [For this, the river of time has some better options for you to consider.]

    [For instance, you could spend 100 million resources to get detailed information and key insights about the Remnant Clan altar from the river of time.]

    [Or, for 500 million resources, you could learn how to dismantle the altar and strategies to counter it.]

    [And if you’re feeling generous, for just 1 billion resources, you could get all the parts of the Remnant Clan altar, fully processed by the river of time—completely safe, free of any Remnant energy, and packed with all the information you’d need.]

    [Great God of Wealth! Please listen to the river of time’s advice and avoid any reckless actions with the Remnant Clan altar.]

    Su Wen: "……"

    Well, well.

    The dark river never disappoints.

    Even where the River of Fate can’t reach, it’s still as shady as ever!

    "Yuan Bao, will anything that happens in the sub-timelines affect me in the main Time and Space?"

    Su Wen suddenly asked, staring at the Remnant Clan altar.

    "No," Yuan Bao replied without hesitation. "When you die in the sub-timelines and return to the main Time and Space, the river of time will cleanse you of any lingering effects."

    "Even if you’re unlucky enough to fall into a Remnant Clan trap or get hit by their energy in the sub-timelines,"

    "the river of time will flag it during your return and make you pay to resolve it."

    "As long as you don’t want that energy to stick around and refuse to pay the toll, it’ll be wiped out during the river of time’s scan."

    Yuan Bao paused, then added seriously, "God of Wealth, while the river of time does care about resources, you can trust its power and methods."

    "The sub-timelines are created by the river of time."

    "And the river of time is far more complex than you think."

    Su Wen’s eyes flickered, and he shot Yuan Bao a meaningful look.

    We’ll talk about this in detail later!

    Here, especially in the sub-timelines, he decided not to press further.

    For now, as long as he knew that nothing in the sub-timelines could affect him in the main Time and Space, he could afford to take some risks.

    "Fighting God, step back for a moment," Su Wen said gravely. "If anything goes wrong and it’s beyond your control, don’t worry about me."

    "This Time and Space can survive without me, but it can’t survive without you!"

    Fighting God opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but the words stuck in his throat and did not come out.

    A year ago, hadn’t he said he could resurrect those who died in the civil war?

    Yet now, he found himself unable to voice those words.

    His reason told him that resurrecting these people would deplete the foundations of the main Time and Space.

    So it was right not to resurrect them… at most, he felt a bit disappointed.

    However, as an unknown ally of the God of Wealth in this Time and Space, if the God of Wealth truly made such a decision, he could only choose to support it.

    Beside him, Su Wen did not know Fighting God’s thoughts.

    With his understanding of the river of time, no matter how powerful this Remnant Clan altar was, how many abilities it possessed, or how many schemes it had,

    the river of time would not let him die before he completed his resurrection order!

    There was no way the river of time would let this order slip away!

    “Refinement!”

    Su Wen took a deep breath and directly activated the God of Wealth’s powers on the Remnant Clan altar before him.

    Triggering the Remnant Clan altar definitely required some means and external stimulation.

    He estimated that the false God of Wealth should be a key part of it.

    But the opponent was trapped in the temporal prison sealed by the river of time, and now couldn’t get out, so he couldn’t let him out.

    Therefore, using the Refinement power was the most direct and easiest way to stimulate the internal forces of the Remnant Clan altar.

    If he could refine it directly, that would be even better.

    Using the resources gained from refining the Remnant Clan altar for this resurrection transaction would be like getting it for free!

    The Remnant Clan altar!

    An intricate piece crafted by the strongest beings in the cosmos, even though this time-space transfer required a high space handling fee,

    such a creation should still leave him with hundreds of thousands or millions of resources, right?

    Was the river of time trying to prevent him from testing the waters and getting something for nothing?

    “Buzz!”

    “Buzz!”

    “Buzz!”

    “……”

    Under the influence of the Refinement power, the Remnant Clan altar seemed to be stimulated from the mysterious realm, beginning to shake violently.

    In the next moment, a heavy bell sound suddenly erupted from the Remnant Clan altar.

    As the bell sounded, an ancient and vast presence within the altar seemed to awaken from a long slumber.

    “The power of the God of Wealth?”

    A curious voice echoed around, “Wait! Wasn’t the God of Wealth already possessed by that little guy?”

    “Why is there still such pure active power?”

    “Could it be that the will of the cosmos’s self-help can sacrifice both a soul and a true spirit…”

    Just as this voice was speaking, it abruptly halted.

    “Whoosh!”

    A piercing sound rang out, and then a shadowy figure clad in black, indistinct in form, appeared above the altar.

    “The oxygen spirit clan has been annihilated?”

    “How interesting!”

    “I knew that the plans here would not be implemented so easily.”

    “Turns out the will of the cosmos has a backup waiting here!”

    “……”

    A chilling and eerie voice, akin to the murmurs of an evil god, continuously crashed against the surrounding space.

    Even the surrounding buildings made of sturdy ink and gold trembled under this pressure, giving a sensation of imminent collapse.

    After a moment, the dark figure began to swirl.

    Though it had no eyeballs, Su Wen felt as if its gaze was fixed upon him.

    “Deity of Wealth in Office…”

    “Little one, had you not come before me in this rebirth, perhaps I really wouldn’t be able to do anything against you.”

    “But since you dare to come, even using the Power of Wealth God to stimulate my clan’s altar.”

    “That is a path to death!”

    “It seems this time, my clan will surely welcome a brand new future!”

    With these words, dark mist began to spread around.

    Simultaneously, an overpowering force descended, freezing space, as if a supreme attack was coming down from above, capable of crushing everything in the current main realm.

    But just as the dark mist was about to touch Su Wen, thunder erupted above.

    In the next moment, a silver pillar of light tore through space and violently descended!
