175: The leaves have changed

The Old Ones never expected that Lin Ye would be so presumptuous!

They had offered their collections to him, yet he had actually deflected them!

No, that wasn't right. Logically speaking, it should have been impossible for him to deflect them. This was just a Legacy, and it carried no danger. Furthermore, it was only a Divine Thought, not the kind of spiritual power infusion that Chu Hao had received.

How could he possibly deflect it?!

At this moment, a strange smile hung on Lin Ye's face.

He spoke slowly, "Old fellows, do you really think I would want these pieces of junk from you?"

"Hmm?!"

Lin Ye's sudden transformation left the group of Old Ones stunned in their tracks.

Lin Ye hadn't been like this before! Although he had gone astray due to some reasons, his character was absolutely impeccable. Otherwise, how could the Heavenly Dao have bestowed such great Luck upon him!

When Heaven is about to bestow a great responsibility upon a person, it must first frustrate their spirit and exhaust their muscles and bones.

Such a person is destined to be kind-hearted and possess a sense of righteousness.

If even a Devil Head could possess such great Luck, then wouldn't this world have been destroyed by someone long ago across the many epochs?

But now, the smile on Lin Ye's face and the aura that occasionally leaked out made the Old Ones secretly shudder.

They had originally thought the strange aura on him was because of that sword!

Now it seemed that wasn't the case!

It was clearly the appearance of that sword earlier that had diverted their attention! The truly strange and terrifying thing was what this kid himself was emitting!

"Who exactly are you?!"

The leader among the Old Ones looked at Lin Ye with a cold expression.

The beings of the Ancient Battlefield were also left with furrowed brows by this sudden turn of events.

Now, this world was on the verge of collapse. If those old men didn't send out their Legacy soon, they would all be done for!

And the aura on that kid...

At this moment, the blue ring in Lin Ye's hand was flickering with a faint light.

Within a Pure Land, a woman who looked like a fairy descended from the Nine Heavens stared in astonishment at the sky, which was gradually filling with dark clouds.

"During the time I was asleep, what exactly happened to Lin Ye? If he only had an Innate Demon Body, he would absolutely not possess such a strange aura. Even compared to the Demon Venerable, it is even more intense."

"Furthermore, is that really an Innate Demon Body?"

"What exactly is going on?!"

Yuee had no idea what was happening; she could only continue to watch.

Just a moment ago, she had stood up for Lin Ye and told him that the beings of the Ancient Battlefield would absolutely not dare to make a move against him.

Therefore, he could use the refusal to accept ordinary Legacy as a threat against these people.

After all, every time this world suffered damage, the beings within the painting would grow weaker. Which supreme expert could accept the reality of suddenly becoming weak?

Furthermore, as the world within the painting slowly crumbled, their projections would gradually disappear.

But now it seemed that Lin Ye had no intention of accepting any Opportunity.

"What exactly does he want to do?"

Yuee murmured softly.

Except for the first time she met Lin Ye, when she could roughly see through him, she found herself increasingly unable to understand this young man, both in the Forbidden Zone and now.

At this moment, the Ancient Battlefield was continuously crumbling.

Those beings were getting anxious.

"Old Man Li, hurry up and give him the things! Are you crazy?! If it weren't for the rules preventing me from giving, I would have already done so!"

"Do you want everyone to be buried along with your stupidity?!"

"Hurry up and give it to him, give him whatever he wants! If this place is destroyed and the Legacy vanishes, we will all suffer tremendous Karma!"

"Compared to that little bit of Karma you are worried about, isn't the sum of all of us enough?!"

"..."

The constant urging made the face of the leader among the Old Ones turn livid.

He had already tried just now; no matter what method he used to give his collection to Lin Ye, the other party could deflect it.

And he had a relaxed smile on his face the whole time, as if he didn't care at all and was not in the slightest bit anxious.

What exactly was he waiting for?!

The Old One did not know why Lin Ye was doing this. If it were for a powerful Legacy, then why hadn't he spoken up until now!

He hadn't even proposed a single condition, just watching the entire world collapse with his own eyes.

If there was one difference, it was that the strange aura on Lin Ye was becoming thicker and thicker! It was almost about to condense into mist.

"Damn it!"

Just at this moment, one of the Old Ones couldn't help it anymore and stepped out: "I will bear the great Karma. Isn't this kid just looking for a Legacy?"

"Your name is Lin Ye, right! Listen well, I will pass on my life's learning as a Legacy to you, but if you walk the Evil Path, my true body will come to deal with you!"

"Old Wang, you..."

"Stop talking!"

The leader was about to dissuade him but was interrupted by the one called Old Wang: "Do you really want this world to disappear? This is a projection of the Ancient Battlefield. You should know that these are all fragments. It is only because countless fragments have gathered together that this Lingxu Battlefield exists."

"If we let it disappear, a part of this world will also vanish!"

"Who will bear such Karma? Moreover, our world might even be directly destroyed, and neither you nor I will be able to find a suitable Legacy inheritor!"

"Since that's the case, we might as well take the risk! Anyway, no matter what kind of Karma it is, I will bear it!"

Having said this, Old Wang did not look at the leader again.

Instead, he turned his gaze toward Lin Ye and took a deep breath.

In his view, giving the Legacy to Lin Ye was not a grievance to his own Legacy; on the contrary, it was a step up for him!

How often in many lifetimes can one encounter a person with great Luck!

And Lin Ye was simply incomparably stronger than Chu Hao before.

There was only one thing: that sword and the strange aura on him made people inevitably think of the portion of Karma they would have to bear for him in the future. This was why everyone did not want to hand over their own Legacy.

But now, they had no choice!

If they didn't hand over the Legacy now, their world within the painting would disappear!

By that time, the Karma they would have to bear would likely be even greater!

Hum...

Golden spiritual power surged out, and a profound aura shot straight into the sky. Old Wang wanted to pour his Legacy into Lin Ye's body.

As a supreme expert, his Legacy was naturally extraordinary.

One could see that golden spiritual power transforming into a flood dragon, rushing toward Lin Ye.

The next second, that golden dragon vanished in front of Lin Ye like a bubble; the Legacy had been deflected once again!

Hmm?!

The group of Old Ones never expected this situation. What exactly did this kid named Lin Ye want to do?! They had already given him the Legacy, and it still wasn't enough? Did he want even more?!

One of the old women spoke with a gloomy expression: "Lin Ye, greed can swallow an elephant. You have already obtained enough. You won't be able to master Old Wang's Legacy in your entire lifetime, yet you still want others'?!"
