Chapter 1074 Black Tortoise Race (2)
The elders were surprised when they saw this turtle suddenly appear in front of them.
As they looked at Rocky, they didn't understand why Lin Fan would suddenly call this turtle out in front of them.
That is until they noticed that there was something off about Rocky.
The moment that they noticed this, all of them suddenly knitted their brows and looked carefully at Rocky. At the same time, they also released their spiritual senses to sweep over Rocky.
Rocky had been in a daze about being suddenly summoned, but when he felt the wave of spiritual senses falling onto him, he was also scared by this. So he quickly went over to where Lin Fan was and hid behind him.
It was only when Lin Fan patted him to calm him down and assured that these were good people that Rocky finally relaxed. Once he relaxed, he allowed the various spiritual senses to fall onto him.
As they used their spiritual senses to check Rocky, the expressions on the faces of the elders all changed.
They filled with more and more shock, just like the elders from the various sacred beast races before.
However, the ones that were the most shocked were the elders from the four other sacred beast races.
After all, they knew more than the elders of the Black Tortoise Race.
They knew that Lin Fan didn't just have Rocky, but also the true descendants of all of their races.
Then that meant…that the true descendants of all five sacred beast races had already gathered with the Void God's successor…
Didn't that mean that the prophecy that had been left behind by their ancestor was close to being fulfilled?
This was definitely much more important than just the Black Tortoise Race's true descendant being discovered.
So these elders couldn't help getting excited.
Lin Fan knew that this would be the case if he brought out Rocky, but he didn't mind since there was something else that was more important right now.
After giving them some time to react, Lin Fan gave a cough and said, "Can you bring out the Black Tortoise Stone now?"
When he said this, all of the elders were pulled out of their daze and they quickly focused on him. They all looked at him carefully, as if they were trying to figure out just who Lin Fan was, that he was able to bring out their true descendant so easily.
But Lin Fan ignored all of this as he looked at the two Great Elders, waiting for their response.
He also ignored the gazes from the elders of the four sacred beast races on the side, trying to get his attention so that they could talk to him privately.
Finally, the Great Elders nodded in agreement to this.
One of them waved his hand and some elite guards appeared. He gave the order to the elite guards to go get the stone as Lin Fan had requested and the elite guards disappeared.
Then he continued to stare at Lin Fan with the other Great Elder, both of them having questioning gazes still.
But Lin Fan ignored all of this as he waited for the elite guard to come back.
Finally, one of the elders couldn't take it anymore as he came forward to talk to Rocky. As soon as he moved forward, all of the other elders did the same and they immediately surrounded Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was surprised that it had taken them this long, but he still didn't do a thing.
Seeing this, even the Great Elders couldn't hold back anymore and they went forward to talk to Rocky as well.
It was just too bad that this had a negative effect and all they did was scared Rocky off.
With how all of these old men were surrounding Rocky, it really did seem like a dangerous scene. After all, they were also offering him treats and special items in an attempt to get closer.
One might think to call the cops after seeing this since it just screamed "strange danger".
But Lin Fan didn't mind since he knew how important Rocky was to the Black Tortoise Race. He knew that not a single one of these elders would actually do anything to Rocky.
In the end, the elders weren't able to get through to Rocky at all, so they had no choice but to ask Lin Fan for help.
Once again, Lin Fan ignored them as he waited for the Black Tortoise Stone to arrive.
After what seemed like an eternity, the Black Tortoise Stone finally came.
The elite guards first went to the two Great Elders with this stone, but the Great Elders just gestured for them to bring it over to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was surprised by the generosity that they showed, but he quickly realized why they did this when he saw the look that they were giving him.
They were trading this Black Tortoise Stone for help with Rocky.
Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile seeing this, but he didn't remain silent and still like before. After all, it wasn't as if he wanted to create a bad impression with the Black Tortoise Race since it was very likely they would need to work together in the future.
So he stood up and went over to the group of elders.
He opened up the wall and went into the center to pick up Rocky before saying, "Rocky, it's rude to not say anything like this."
Rocky had been scared by the old men surrounding him, but he was less scared when Lin Fan picked him up. Moreover, he was raised properly by Lin Fan and Angela, so when Lin Fan scolded him like this, he knew that he had made a mistake.
So Rocky turned to the elders and introduced himself in a small voice.
Seeing this, the eyes of all the elders lit up.
They had tried talking to him for so long just now, but they hadn't been able to get him to say a single word. But now that Lin Fan had said something, he opened up to them right away.
It really was a large difference in treatment.
But they didn't dwell on that since they wanted to build a good relationship with this true descendant.
So once again, they surrounded him with all kinds of presents and treats for him, trying to win his affection.
Lin Fan immediately raised his hand and stopped all of them from coming forward. He turned to the Great Elders and reached his hand out with Rocky still in them.
Rocky was surprised to see this and wanted to struggle a bit, but he calmed down when he felt Lin Fan patting him on the back.
The two Great Elders carefully reached their hands out, but the problem was that there was only a single Rocky. So they had to decide who would hold him first.
It was a fierce rock paper scissors match, but the one on the left won and was the first to hold Rocky.
Rocky looked uncomfortable, but since Lin Fan had given him an order, he had no choice. So he allowed this Great Elder to hold him and pamper him while looking ungrateful.
Still, the elders didn't mind as they all wanted a chance to hold Rocky.
Lin Fan just shook his head when he saw this before turning his attention to the Black Tortoise Stone.
Behind him, Rocky looked at him with a look that made it seem like he had been betrayed by Lin Fan.
Lin Fan carefully checked the stone, but he wasn't able to find anything strange about it.
This stone was the same as the other stones that he had received, but it was different in colour.
Just like how the other stones had been colours that represented the race that they came from, this stone was completely black in colour. It even looked like a piece of obsidian with how dark it was.
At the same time, he also felt the same void laws coming from this stone.
After making sure that there was nothing special about this stone, Lin Fan pulled out the combined stone.
The moment that this appeared, everyone's focus turned to this stone.
Even the Black Tortoise Race elders who had been focused on Rocky couldn't help turning to look at this stone.
That was because they could feel the strange sensation that came from this stone.
They also couldn't help looking at the elders from the other sacred beast races for an explanation, but they found that all of them were focused on the stone and what was about to happen next. They didn't have any time to ask them any questions.
So in the end, they also turned their attention back to the stone and Lin Fan who was holding it.
After taking a pause, Lin Fan brought the two stones together.
Just like before, there was an attraction that appeared in between these stones.
The only difference was that this time, the attraction force was much stronger than anything Lin Fan had experienced before. It was so strong that the black stone was ripped out of his hand and flew towards the multi coloured stone.
The moment that it made contact, they didn't clash with each other as one might expect, but the black stone completely disappeared. It was absorbed in an instant by the multi coloured stone and disappeared without a trace.
Once that happened, there was a glow that suddenly appeared around the multi coloured stone.
