Hearing the old man's words, everyone was stunned at first, then immediately understood what the old fellow meant.
He was trying to extort them!
A dignified fifth-tier God Tribulation Realm expert was actually doing something like this. It was truly a disgrace to God Tribulation Realm experts.
A powerhouse of this level could earn more by casually going out and hunting a few God Core Realm Fierce Beasts than by robbing them.
What was this old fellow thinking?
Qi Dong bared his mouth, revealing teeth that were nearly all gone. "You have no choice. There is only one path: every one of you must hand over one treasure exchanged from the stone statue."
Ignoring everyone's reactions, he continued, "Before the master of this Small World fell, in order to prevent his legacy from being cut off, he set up three trials. As long as you pass these three trials, you can obtain this senior's legacy."
"If you are strong enough, you may even obtain the complete legacy, defy fate, and leap from an ordinary person into a top-tier Spirit."
These words were highly stirring, and some people's hearts began to race.
However, quite a few levelheaded people still remained wary.
Liu Xi, a God Core Realm expert, asked curiously, "If that is the case, why did Senior not undergo the trials and obtain the legacy?"
Qi Dong raised a hand to his mouth and dryly coughed several times. "This old man tried. I failed."
The moment those words came out, those who had still held expectations felt as though a basin of cold water had been poured over them.
Even a God Tribulation Realm expert had failed the trials. How could low-level Spirits like them possibly pass?
Qi Dong waved his hand. "There is no need to worry too much.
