When he came out with Rocky the turtle in his hand, everyone looked at him and looked around for Rocky, the pile of rocks.
Lin Fan said with a bitter smile, "This is Rocky."
They all looked at Rocky the turtle in his hand which caused Rocky to shrink back in his arms.
They then looked up at Lin Fan like he was crazy, but all he could do was stand there with the same bitter smile on his face.
After all, there wasn't anything else he really could say until they accepted this fact.
If he said anything now, they might just think that he was crazy.
In the end, it was Angela who recognized Rocky first.
Even if Rocky had gone from a pile of rocks into a turtle, his aura didn't change. This aura was recognized by her and she realized that Lin Fan was indeed telling the truth.
So she came forward and took Rocky in her arms.
Rocky had been sad about not being recognized by anyone, so Angela had to comfort him in the end to make up for not recognizing him.
While she was doing this, the rest of them all scanned Rocky with their spiritual senses and confirmed that this was indeed Rocky's aura.
Even if his body had changed, it was usually impossible to change one's aura like this. One's aura was something that was unique to them and unless it was something very impactful that happened, this normally wouldn't change.
So if this turtle had Rocky's aura, then it was Rocky.
With this, all of them looked at Lin Fan with a look of doubt as they wanted to know what happened in that place.
Lin Fan gave a sigh before going to explain everything.
By the end of it, they all looked at Rocky with a strange look.
The story seemed very unusual and unbelievable, but because it was Lin Fan, they chose to believe it.
After all, they had seen even more unbelievable things from him and the master of the store.
Since this was something that involved the ancestor of the Black Tortoise Race, they just accepted that it was something related to the God Realm. The God Realm was the realm that they couldn't reach and they couldn't understand. There were many different things that only those in the God Realm could do that they couldn't understand no matter how they thought about it.
So it wasn't worth thinking about it.
Since they had finished getting what they had wanted, there was no need for them to stay here any longer.
Lin Fan could also see that the teleport was ready to send them to the surface, so he activated this.
Of course before this, Lin Fan sent Rocky back into the pet storage space.
Rocky was in the middle of being pampered by Angela, so he had an unwilling look on his face. But Lin Fan stayed firm and sent Rocky back into the pet storage space in the end.
When the flash of light disappeared, they found themselves in the same situation as before.
This time, in front of them were the elders from the four different sacred beast races.
They all had experience with Lin Fan's sudden appearance, so they all quickly moved in front of him to show that he was with them.
The elders of the Black Tortoise Race and the guards all raised their weapons in a wary manner, but seeing that the elders from the other four sacred beast races had moved forward to protect him, they hesitated. They knew that these elders wouldn't protect this stranger who had suddenly appeared for no reason.
So there had to be something special about this person.
The elders of the Dragon Race, the Phoenix Race, the Qilin Race, and the White Tiger Race all quickly started to explain the situation. Then with Lin Fan releasing his void laws for the elders of the Black Tortoise Race to see, everything was cleared up and they were led to the elder hall.
When they headed there, they stopped in front of the elder hall itself to look at the same mural that had been shown to Lin Fan four times now…Well, it wasn't completely the same since this time it was about the Black Tortoise Race, but the contents were basically the same.
So the elders of the Black Tortoise Race were disappointed to see that Lin Fan didn't have any reaction to this.
The elders of the other four sacred beast races already expected this, so they didn't say a thing.
With a heavy heart, the elders of the Black Tortoise Race led Lin Fan into the elder hall.
When he stepped in, Lin Fan looked completely at ease, as if he wasn't bothered by all of these Ruler Realm Experts that were currently in front of him.
But that wasn't strange since he had already encountered this same situation many times before, so he was already used to it.
He was even used to the spiritual senses that suddenly came forward to sweep over him.
The elders in the room had only just heard who he was when they already sent their spiritual senses at him to make sure that he was indeed who he said he was.
Once they had confirmed this and had satisfied looks on their faces, the Great Elders of the Black Tortoise Race took over.
One Great Elder said, "Void God's successor, you are finally here. We have been waiting a long time for you, though it seems that we have been waiting the longest."
As he said this, his eyes couldn't help looking over at the elders from the other four sacred beast races to the side. There was a hint of blame in them as he looked at them.
After all, they could have sent a messenger to them that the Void God's successor had appeared instead of leaving them in the dark like this. It turned out that they had been the final ones to find out that the Void God's successor had already appeared.
Still, they didn't hold it against them too much.
The bond between the five sacred beast races was much deeper than this, so it wouldn't be broken over this small thing.
After this tiny complaint, another Great Elder said, "Void God's successor, is there anything that we can do for you?"
Lin Fan nodded when he heard this and said, "I need the Black Tortoise Stone."
The moment that they heard this, the elders of the Black Tortoise Race couldn't help revealing difficult looks.
It wasn't that they didn't want to give it to Lin Fan, it was just…that before they found their race's true descendant, they still needed it.
While it was possible that a mutation could happen in the wild that would allow one to obtain the Black Tortoise Bloodline, the most likely thing to happen was that one of the descendants would eventually have a pure enough bloodline to return to the ancestral bloodline.
So the best method was for them to use the Black Tortoise Stone.
This was an item that would allow them to purify their bloodline to bring it closer to the ancestral bloodline. They needed this in the tribe so that they could keep using it on the juniors to get them closer to becoming the true descendant.
So before that, they couldn't give it to Lin Fan just yet.
They even thought about asking Lin Fan to use his void laws to help them purify the bloodlines of their juniors.
After all, Lin Fan was the Void God's successor, so of course he would be able to do this for them.
It was just hard for them to ask this all of a sudden.
So there was an awkward silence that filled the room.
Lin Fan could tell from the looks on their faces that they didn't want to give him the Black Tortoise Stone which was a problem.
So he said, "Is there a problem?"
Hearing him ask this, the elders had no choice but to admit it.
The Great Elder said, "We still haven't found our true descendant just yet, so we still need the Black Tortoise Stone to help purify the bloodlines of our juniors."
The other Great Elder said, "I'm sure that you can understand the importance of this matter, so we have to ask for some time. Once we find our true descendant, we will follow the instructions of the ancestor and hand you the Black Tortoise stone."
After this, the two Great Elders looked at each other before the first one turned back and said, "If possible, can you please help us with purifying the bloodlines of the juniors?"
The second Great Elder said, "As the Void God's successor, you can surely control void laws which can be used to help purify bloodlines. With your help, we will be able to find our true descendant even faster and you'll be able to receive the Black Tortoise Stone sooner."
When Lin Fan heard this, he couldn't help revealing a faint smile which confused the elders.
Before coming here, he too had been worried about the same thing as these elders.
However, after meeting the Black Tortoise God Fragment…he had already solved this problem.
If it was before, he might not have done this…but he really wanted to know what happened after he combined the five stones together and it didn't seem like they would give him the stone before this…
So Lin Fan decided to call out Rocky in front of everyone.
