“You don’t want it?”
Bai Qing looked at Ye Ling in surprise, as if his answer had caught him off guard.
Even a weakened supreme being was millions of times more powerful than Ye Ling. The difference was incomparable.
If Ye Ling accepted the inheritance of the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin now, he could immediately become a supreme being and undergo a complete transformation!
No one could refuse such temptation. Bai Qing never expected Ye Ling to reject it so readily!
The Upper Realm Shadow was surprised that Ye Ling would disdain its inheritance and cursed him, “Wang Li Ren! Do you know what you’re refusing? Do you think becoming a supreme being is easy? Every Seed of Origin is coveted by countless supreme beings. With your own strength, you’ll never be able to obtain a Seed of Origin and become a supreme being!”
“Besides, even if you become a supreme being, your strength might not be greater than mine now? Why are you refusing? Are you insane?”
The Upper Realm Shadow wasn’t genuinely trying to push its inheritance. However, if Ye Ling refused it, it was doomed to die!
Now that Ye Ling had refused, the Upper Realm Shadow was more panicked than anyone!
Bai Qing also said to Ye Ling, “Little fellow, although I want to kill the Upper Realm Shadow immediately, I must admit that what it says is true.”
“The environment of the Origin Upper Realm is no longer like the ancient times. Almost no one becomes a supreme being through their own power. Inheriting the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin, while not a perfect choice, is an excellent one.”
Ye Ling bowed to Bai Qing, saying, “Thank you for your reminder, senior. But I have my own plans. You should kill the Upper Realm Shadow to eliminate future trouble.”
Bai Qing looked at Ye Ling deeply and didn’t insist. He replied, “Alright, as you wish.”
“Wait!”
Suddenly, Tian Xing, who was standing nearby, spoke up. She then knelt before Ye Ling and pleaded, “Ye Ling, can you give the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance to me?”
Ye Ling looked at Tian Xing in surprise, “You want it?”
Tian Xing nodded and replied, “I want it. My talent is not as good as yours, and I have no background in the Origin Upper Realm. I estimate I’ll never become a supreme being in this lifetime, and I will eventually die in the Origin Upper Realm.”
“This is probably my only chance to become a supreme being. If you don’t want the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance, please give it to me!”
Ye Ling looked at Bai Qing and asked, “Is this permissible?”
Bai Qing nodded, “As long as the Upper Realm Shadow is willing to give up its origin inheritance, anyone can inherit it. But are you sure you want to give the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance to her?”
“Let me remind you, once Tian Xing becomes a supreme being, there will be a vast gap in strength between you. No matter how good your relationship was before, if Tian Xing decides to kill you later, it will be as easy as flipping a hand.”
“I sincerely suggest that if you don’t want the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance, let me kill it.”
Tian Xing panicked and immediately vowed to Ye Ling, “I can swear to be your servant, to never harm you, and to always obey your commands!”
Bai Qing, however, said to Ye Ling, “Oaths are the most unreliable things. As long as your strength is insufficient to restrain Tian Xing, her oath will be mere nonsense, holding no meaning.”
Ye Ling looked at Tian Xing kneeling before him and said, “Look me in the eyes and tell me your true thoughts.”
Tian Xing met Ye Ling’s gaze directly and said earnestly, “I hope you can believe me. Although I betrayed the Lord of the Upper Realm, the Lord of the Upper Realm is different from you. The Lord of the Upper Realm used power to restrain me; I did not willingly follow. But now… I sincerely wish to follow you, and I will never betray you!”
Ye Ling stared into Tian Xing’s eyes for a long time, then bowed to Bai Qing and said, “Senior, I have decided. Give the Upper Realm Shadow’s inheritance to Tian Xing.”
Upon hearing Ye Ling’s words, Tian Xing trembled, her face filled with disbelief.
She never imagined that Ye Ling would actually agree to her request!
In fact, she had only blurted it out on impulse, never expecting it to succeed.
After all, the Upper Realm Shadow’s inheritance had nothing to do with her, and she wasn’t completely loyal to Ye Ling. Ye Ling had no reason to give her the origin inheritance!
Bai Qing also looked at Ye Ling with a surprised expression, asking, “You don’t seem like such a naive person. Why do you believe her so easily?”
“Even if she is sincere now, people’s hearts can change. If she betrays you in the future, you’ll have no recourse!”
Ye Ling smiled and said, “Senior, I don’t believe in Tian Xing, I believe in myself.”
Bai Qing was taken aback, “Believe in yourself? Why do you say that?”
Ye Ling replied confidently, “I know Tian Xing is a person who prioritizes profit. As long as the profit is sufficient, she can betray anyone, whether it’s the Lord of the Upper Realm or me. Therefore, I don’t intend to restrain her with oaths.”
Bai Qing asked, “If that’s the case, why are you still giving the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance to her?”
Ye Ling smiled and said, “Because I will make Tian Xing realize that the benefits of betraying me are far less than following me! I am her future.”
Tian Xing was suddenly jolted!
Bai Qing looked at Ye Ling deeply, then laughed heartily, “Haha… Truly an interesting young fellow. Since you’ve said so, I have nothing more to say. Let’s do as you wish!”
With that, Bai Qing looked at the Upper Realm Shadow and said, “Hand over your origin inheritance, and I will spare your life.”
“Yes…”
The Upper Realm Shadow knew there was no turning back and accepted its fate, handing over its origin inheritance.
Although it would no longer be a supreme being after handing over its origin inheritance, it could still cultivate well and obtain the Heart of the Great Dao to become a Creation God.
This outcome was better than being annihilated.
Bai Qing presented the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance to Tian Xing and said indifferently, “Tian Xing, although Ye Ling does not wish to bind you, this only represents his will, not mine.”
“Before you accept the origin inheritance, I will take a portion of your soul. If you ever betray Ye Ling, I will personally kill you. Are you willing?”
Tian Xing knelt and kowtowed to Bai Qing, respectfully replying, “I am willing.”
“Good!”
Bai Qing was not one to procrastinate. He directly severed a portion of Tian Xing’s soul before sending the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance into Tian Xing’s body.
BOOM!!!
The moment Tian Xing received the Upper Realm Shadow’s origin inheritance, her entire aura began to surge!
The earth trembled, and endless black energy erupted from Tian Xing’s body. Her entire being underwent a massive transformation. She flew into the air, her long hair whipping around, resembling a peerless demoness!
At this moment, all beings in the entire Chaos Battlefield sensed Tian Xing’s aura.
A new supreme being had been born.
