Crossing the Timeline: Is It Reasonable for Me, the God of Wealth, To Be Short on Money? Chapter 18

"Forget it, what’s the point of thinking about this?"

Su Wen shook his head slightly and said, "I’ll figure it out when the ti cos."

"Abilities: Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0."

[Level: Mastered to perfection, understanding and application have reached an extraordinary level.]

[Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0 and Foundational Body Refinent Technique 2.0 have moderate overlap; you can spend Wealth Sources to replace Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0.]

Su Wen frowned slightly as he looked at the skill section; with over five Wealth Sources, he still couldn’t replace Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0?

Doing the math, over five Wealth Sources equates to more than fifty million!

Even if the country allocated a massive budget for him when he returned, he’d eventually cause national deflation.

After all, he was only at Level One, and as he advanced, the required Wealth Sources would multiply exponentially.

He could already picture the future: the nation’s top mints running at full capacity, yet still unable to keep up with his demands.

"When I get back, I’ll need to find a way to earn so money."

Su Wen sighed and said, "I’m supposed to be a god of wealth; it’s bad enough not helping everyone get rich, but letting them lose money is just too much."

As he spoke, Su Wen turned his attention to the powers section.

"Powers: Refinent."

[Note: This power of the God of Wealth can refine anything in the world, extracting its essence and discarding the waste.]

Su Wen’s eyelids twitched, and he muttered softly, "This doesn’t sound like a power a god of wealth should have."

Refining anything in the world?

The description was pretty bold.

But shouldn’t the powers of a god of wealth be about making money or spreading wealth—sothing related to money?

"I’ll test it out and see."

With that thought, Su Wen imdiately started the refinent process.

"Refinent target: Rock."

"The target’s value is too low; refinent is not recomnded."

Su Wen: "……"

Suddenly, an idea struck Su Wen.

He jumped up and ran toward the mine.

"Refinent target: Ore vein."

"Scanning target value content."

"Scanning……"

"Na: God of Wealth’s Attached Ore Vein."

"Type: Small."

"Origin: Number 73,248 Arrow Realm."

"Daily output: 1 Wealth Source."

"The target’s value content is low; Refinent is recomnded."

Su Wen stroked his chin and said, "Even a gold mine has low value content? The standards for this Refinent power are pretty high!"

As for this small mine, he thought it would be nice to have, but it wasn’t a big deal if he didn’t.

After all, he wasn’t sure how long he planned to stay here.

He might just head into the Monkey Kingdom, make a quick buck, and then leave.

So, why not refine this small mine?

He was curious to see what kind of effects the God of Wealth’s Refinent could produce.

"Refinent target: Small mine."

"Starting Refinent."

"Refining…"

"Refinent complete; Refinent gain: 10 Wealth Sources."

As soon as the notification ended, the mine in front of Su Wen collapsed.

Even the surrounding environnt began to change dramatically, as if the small mine had never existed there. It was quite a sight.

"So, that’s how the God of Wealth’s powers work!"

Su Wen looked ahead and said, "Refinent ans turning everything in the world into Wealth Sources!"

"Refining the mine is like getting ten days’ worth of inco."

"It might not seem like much, but for soone like who’s just passing through the Arrow Realm, it’s more than enough!"

"Honestly, it’s a pretty good deal."

"Building up Wealth Sources quickly early on will help grow stronger and earn even more later, like a snowball effect."

"Now I have another way to gather Wealth Sources."

"In the future, if I get any materials and the prices drop, I can just refine them into Wealth Sources."

"Even after taking down enemies, I can refine their bodies!"

"The Refinent power is definitely a must-have skill for so dirty work!"

As he said this, Su Wen suddenly paused. He rembered sothing.

When the future war breaks out, if he just takes a quick trip to the battlefield, he could rake in a ton of Wealth Sources!

Wait, can everything be refined?

Can curses be refined?

What about toxins?

If all of that is possible, then the Refinent power might be even more incredible than he imagined.

He could only say, "That’s the God of Wealth for you!"

"Suddenly, it feels like the enemy’s spy trying to assassinate and setting traps is just sothing to be expected."

Su Wen suddenly chuckled and said helplessly, "If I were the spy, I could spare anyone, but the God of Wealth must die!"

"He’s such a powerhouse in the late stages, capable of uplifting an entire era, and he’s also a divine support; who knows, he might even beco a God of War in the future."

"A true all-around warrior! Who would dare to let the God of Wealth grow stronger?"

Thinking about it, Su Wen felt a bit more at ease with the idea of his own tragic death at the hands of a spy in the future.

Indeed!

With the God of Wealth being so strong, isn’t it reasonable for others to want to kill him?

Besides, he needs to be careful. As a fellow fate bearer with the character "God," if the God of Wealth is this strong, the other gods won’t be weak either!

Thus, in the future, humanity might keep losing to the otherworldly beings.

During the first Ti and Space Journey, humanity was almost wiped out.

The otherworldly beings coming out of the Arrow Realm are probably beyond his reach right now, but their strength is likely beyond his imagination.

He must respect the world, stay humble, and never let his guard down against enemies.

Only then can he survive better.

"The world is still so mysterious."

Su Wen looked up at the purple-blue sky of the Arrow Realm and sighed.

"Abilities: Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0 ( )."

[State: Reached the peak of the technique; understanding and use have beco extraordinary.]

[Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0 has so overlap with Foundational Body Refinent Technique 2.0; Wealth Sources can be used to replace Foundational Body Refinent Technique 1.0.]

"Wealth Source Value: 15.5."

Su Wen glanced at the attribute panel, smiled slightly, and said, "After the replacent, I’ll go check out the Monkey Kingdom!"

……

anwhile, in the Monkey Kingdom.

"Hmm?"

"Almost the entire squad wiped out, only one survivor?"

The Old Monkey frowned at the news. The total wipeout was expected since this squad was sent to train under the God of Wealth.

But the speed of their defeat was too fast, wasn’t it?

Considering the ti it took for the squad to travel and relay orders, it ant that in just a few minutes, maybe ten at most, the God of Wealth had wiped out the entire squad?

"Bring the survivor to !"

After a mont of thought, the Old Monkey ordered.

Soon, the surviving Silver Coin Monkey was brought before the Old Monkey.

"Hmph!"

As the Silver Coin Monkey entered the palace, the Old Monkey narrowed his eyes, and the atmosphere in the palace instantly turned cold and severe.
