Crossing the Timeline: Is It Reasonable for Me, the God of Wealth, To Be Short on Money? Chapter 6

“Howl————”

Monts later, a wave of mixed strange howls suddenly erupted.

The wave of howls continued to spread out, echoing through the open mountainous area.

Soon, a large group of copper coin monkeys erged from the mine, holding shovels, charging into the jungle to chase after Su Wen.

Su Wen hid in the bushes, also holding a shovel.

He had taken this shovel from a dead copper coin monkey, and after a quick comparison, he found it to be the best quality, so he grabbed it without hesitation.

Although he was just an ordinary person the day before, swinging a shovel was sothing anyone could do.

If he was surrounded by copper coin monkeys, facing them with a shovel instead of empty hands made a big difference.

“Convert four Destiny Copper Coins, Wealth Source Value 0.04.”

“Convert three Destiny Copper Coins, Wealth Source Value 0.03.”

“Convert six Destiny Copper Coins, Wealth Source Value 0.06.”

“……”

Su Wen hid in the shadows, continually throwing stones to kill nearby copper coin monkeys.

However, due to the large motions he made while tossing stones, so slightly smarter copper coin monkeys always noticed his ambush.

Once they did, he jumped out with the shovel and swung to take them down.

Through simple combat comparison, he realized that these copper coin monkeys couldn’t get close to him at all.

One ca, and he took one down!

Two ca, and he took both down!

During the battle, he was amazed to discover that the fifth and sixth breathing thods of the Body Refinent Technique had a stamina-restoring effect when paired together in a thirteen-second cycle.

Although it couldn’t compare to the stamina he was expending, it was still a pleasant surprise.

Thus, he decisively changed his fighting style and began to openly swing the shovel at the copper coin monkeys.

After all, using stones from behind to ambush was far less efficient than attacking head-on.

As for the quality of the shovel?

Each copper coin monkey had a shovel; if he broke one, he could just grab another nearby, right?

“These copper coin monkeys…”

After taking down the group of copper coin monkeys that had been attacking him, Su Wen frowned slightly.

He noticed that the copper coin designs on their faces were glowing faintly with a blood-red light.

At first, he thought he was seeing things, but after stopping to think, he realized that the more copper coin monkeys he killed, the faster and stronger the next ones seed to co.

“Experience: 6.5%.”

“Wealth Source Value: 0.65.”

Su Wen glanced at his attribute panel, then gave up on the idea of continuing to gain Wealth Source Value.

Almost there!

He also wanted to see if the buffs on the copper coin monkeys would disappear after the battle.

Most importantly, since arriving in the Arrow Realm, he had already killed sixty-five copper coin monkeys.

He was feeling a bit tired.

Maybe he could still take down a few more, but he needed to be careful to avoid a mishap.

It would be really awkward if he ssed up.

“Ability: Body Refinent Technique ( ).”

【Proficient Stage: The effectiveness of this ability is roughly equivalent to practicing the Eighteen Strengthening Movents for three years.】

Su Wen sat by a small stream, looking at the plus sign next to the Body Refinent Technique, and felt a sense of relief.

Finally, he could allocate points!

The proficient stage of the Body Refinent Technique should be enough to get by in the Arrow Realm, as long as he was careful.

But when he found out that a single copper coin monkey was worth a hundred thousand, his mindset changed.

The Star God had suggested that he should leave as soon as he leveled up.

But Su Wen had other plans. He wanted to truly "train" in this Arrow Realm.

After all, he had co all this way—how could he not make the most of it?

“Ability: Body Refinent Technique.”

【Mastered Stage: The effectiveness of this ability is roughly equivalent to practicing the Eighteen Strengthening Movents for ten years.】

“Buzz!”

A mist of energy and blood began to form above Su Wen’s head, resembling the legendary "blood mist" described in ancient texts.

“It seems like I can…”

Su Wen carefully assessed his physical condition and murmured softly.

Then he took a deep breath, looked at the nearby stream, and suddenly exhaled.

“Whoosh!”

A blood arrow shot through the air, striking the stream with such force that it created a large pit.

“After ten years of practicing the Body Refinent Technique, I can break through and gain this kind of power?”

Su Wen’s eyes lit up. In future battles, it was clear that the fate bearers would be the ones to wield power.

Ordinary people might not have the chance to step onto the battlefield.

While the progress of ordinary people in training was much slower compared to fate bearers, at least there was a path for them to follow.

In future battles, the role of non-fate bearers on the battlefield could exceed everyone’s expectations.

After all, the number of fate bearers was always smaller than that of ordinary people.

So, as long as the Body Refinent Technique was passed down, in ten years, the first batch of new combat forces would erge.

Even if this force was weak at first, over ti, its importance would surely grow.

There was also a chance that his own talent might not be exceptional, and soone with extraordinary talent could appear and condense the power of energy and blood in just a few months.

“Wealth Source Value: 0.15.”

【Chaos in Ti and Space (Activated)】

“With this significant leap in strength, I should be able to take down that ferocious beast in the future, right?”

“If things don’t go well, at least I can escape.”

“Hmm… If I really can’t escape, I’ll hold out for a while and see if I can bring back more abilities.”

“……”

Su Wen looked at the Wealth Source Value, his mind racing with ideas.

Now that he was in the Arrow Realm, the Body Refinent Technique had progressed from the proficient stage to the mastered stage, costing him 0.5 Wealth Source.

To upgrade further, he would need at least one source of wealth, if not more.

And while his physical fitness was decent, he still lacked skill techniques and effective attack thods.

So, why not take a look into the future? Maybe he’d find sothing useful.

After all, it was only ten copper coin monkeys, right?

With that thought, Su Wen focused his mind and activated the Chaos in Ti and Space sub-talent once more.

【As an uninitiated Zero-Level God of Wealth, you have consud most of your Wealth Source to disrupt ti and space.】

【The powerful force of Wealth Source shook ti and space, releasing faint and fragnted powers of ti and space, which enveloped you and brought you ten years into the future.】

【However, the environnt you found yourself in was completely different from what you had experienced before, leaving you deeply puzzled.】

【As you looked around, you noticed a few damaged tal signs not far away.】

【From these signs, you could barely make out four words: Jiang City Battlefield.】

【The sounds of roaring and explosions echoing from all directions made you realize that Jiang City in this tiline had not fallen. Instead, it was locked in a brutal stalemate with otherworldly creatures, turning the area into a battlefield like a at grinder.】

【Oh, God of Wealth from the past tiline! The Jiang City Battlefield welcos your arrival.】
