Chapter 274: If You Are Willing to Offer Thirty Million

“Raiders from across the starlit sky?”

Su Wen frowned slightly. How did another unknown force pop up?

The Demigod races are pretty straightforward. They’re probably like the Holy Spirit clan and the Ghost Spirit clan—races with Demigods in their ranks.

But these raiders from across the starlit sky—are they enemies from beyond Earth and the Arrow Realm?

Looks like these Demigod races have teamed up with those raiders.

Hmm… they’ve got a lot of enemies on their hands!

Not just tens of thousands of Arrow Realms, but also mysterious foes like these raiders.

“Is this death a sacrifice?”

After taking a sip of tea, Su Wen set his Thermos aside.

He then grabbed some special snacks from the Wind God, tore open a pack, and absentmindedly started munching.

As he ate, he thought things over.

The fact that he had to sacrifice his immortal body, immortal soul, and immortal true spirit to the Star God in the sub-timelines shows just how steep the river of time’s price must be!

After all, the Arrow Realm can be refined!

Even the shattered Demon Witch realm brought in five million in financial resources.

Given his personality and what he knows about the Star God and the God of Theater, would he really let those Arrow Realms sitting on the border slide?

Plus, knowing how brutal the future looks, he’d definitely keep a hefty stash of financial resources on hand.

Hundreds of millions, even billions, would barely scratch the surface.

So… could thirty billion in financial resources from the sub-timelines not even buy the Star God threefold immortality?

With no other options, his sacrifice became inevitable.

As for not calling on the river of time at all?

Maybe the river of time charges different prices depending on the enemy!

Ordinary Arrow Realms, Demigod-level enemies, and raiders from across the starlit sky—they’re all on different tiers.

If he couldn’t afford the river of time and couldn’t secure threefold immortality for the Star God and the others, what choice did he have besides sacrifice?

“This time, so many divine fate bearers have died, leaving only the Fighting God and the Star God in China.”

Su Wen muttered softly, “Next time, right before the great war, I can make a sacrifice ahead of time.”

“That way, the Star God will have the strength of a Demigod as a safety net, and everyone… can make it through.”

He paused, then added, “Even though the inscriptions didn’t mention the Fighting God, judging by his fate, he should be fine.”

“As long as the death list doesn’t include the Fighting God, he probably won’t be among those who fall.”

No surprise, the Fighting God survived again.

This time, with the Star God around, at least the Fighting God wouldn’t be so alone.

Compared to previous instances of the Fighting God in the sub-timelines, this time the Fighting God is performing quite well.

The Star God is still here, and the core support remains intact.

So, all he needs to do is dash around the battlefield with his gun, following the Star God’s commands, shooting wherever directed.

After all, the Fighting God isn’t fond of overthinking.

【Oh, mighty God of Wealth! You glance at the inscriptions and the information you’ve gathered, and you begin to ponder the consumption and purchasing issues between the sub-timelines and the main Time and Space.】

【The river of time assures you that whether in the main Time and Space or the sub-timelines, they treat you, the esteemed God of Wealth, with equal respect.】

【There’s no discrimination against the God of Wealth from the sub-timelines; from the river of time’s professional standpoint, such client discrimination is the lowest form of business conduct.】

【Of course, due to the significant differences in the dimensionality and complexity of Time and Space between the sub-timelines and the main Time and Space, there will be slight variations in the selling relationships.】

【However, these differences stem from consumption and cost issues, not from the river of time arbitrarily raising prices.】

【The river of time always upholds a fair and just trading relationship. Anyone who slanders the river of time, regardless of their powerful background or strength, will face severe protests and sanctions from the river of time.】

【You wholeheartedly agree with the river of time’s righteous stance.】

【After all, you believe the river of time is correct. Across the countless realms, beyond the starry sky, and even in the unknown, uncharted worlds and regions, the river of time stands as the most formidable organization and force.】

【Who can rival the river of time in terms of background and power?】

【Oh, God of Wealth, who lacks worldly knowledge! Your words have displeased the river of time, but if you engage in a small transaction with it, it will be very satisfied.】

【For instance, spending a mere fifty thousand riches to purchase a projection fragment from the War of 75.】

【You stare at the river of time’s words in disbelief.】

【What’s going on with this business-savvy river?】

【Did you come here with a fortune just to buy a few projection fragments?】

【Do they even want to do business anymore?】

【Faced with your inquiry as a celestial officer, the river of time reflects on itself and admits its mistakes.】

【At the same time, it labels and prices the products you’re interested in.】

【Immortality of body is the most crucial component of the threefold immortality; even the combined weight of immortality of soul and immortality of true spirit doesn’t surpass it.】

【The Demigod Level is necessary to cross the threshold of rules and achieve true godhood.】

【But how does one make that crossing?】

【It’s by using the body as the boat, the soul as the oar, and the true spirit as the guiding force.】

【Without an oar, one can make do with their hands.】

【Without a guiding direction, if one has a good sense of direction or luck, they might still reach the other side.】

【But without a boat, attempting to cross with just an oar and a guide is pure folly.】

【As for this precious immortality of body, normally, the river of time wouldn’t consider selling or granting it externally, as this matter is of great significance and involves many complexities.】

【However, if you’re willing to offer thirty million riches, the river of time will consider granting immortality of body directly.】

【As someone who spends thirty million, you’ll be considered one of their own at the river of time.】

【Being one of their own changes the usual circumstances.】

【Most importantly, when it comes to their own, the river of time is generous and doesn’t sweat the small stuff.】

【Oh, wise God of Wealth! Are you willing to part with thirty million to purchase the immortality of body, which the river of time only grants at great cost?】

Su Wen: “…”

This dark river!

So greedy!

Last time it was ten million, and now it’s thirty million?

Just because he didn’t buy last time?

Why the tripling?

And all this talk about not granting it under normal circumstances, and how precious immortality of body is.

Last time, the sub-timelines had tricked him into selling with their smooth talk, and now they’re pulling the same stunt again?

“The body is the boat, the soul is the oar, and the true spirit is the guide.”

Su Wen stroked his chin and murmured, “I should tell the God of Theater and the Star God about this.”

“To the river of time, what’s a mere Demigod?”

“Even a true god might not be much to them!”

“So if they didn’t want to sell the Demigod methods to him for some riches, they’d probably just casually mention it during exchanges.”

Beside him, Yuan Bao suddenly spoke up: “God of Wealth, I can actually contact the river of time in the main Time and Space and ask about the price.”
