The shaking didn't last long before the same set of stairs appeared.
When it appeared, everyone couldn't help turning to look at Rocky. Lin Fan especially, but what he was looking at wasn't Rocky, but rather the system window in front of him that appeared with Rocky's information.
No matter how he went through this information, he wasn't able to find what he was looking for.
After all, there was no sign that Rocky had the Black Tortoise bloodline.
So why did a rock from Rocky unlock this set of stairs?
Could it be that there was more to meet the eye with Rocky, or was it that there was something else about Rocky?
Lin Fan just kept staring at the screen for a bit before giving a sigh and turning to look at Rocky.
ƥandasnovel.com Rocky was fine at first, but with everyone staring at him like this, he couldn't help feeling self conscious. So eventually, he started moving back in Angela's arms and looking a bit scared.
Seeing this, Angela realized her mistake and quickly glared at everyone to make them stop.
There wasn't a single person here who didn't fear her, so they all quickly looked away from Rocky.
Though that didn't cause the doubt in their hearts to subside. They were all still curious why that rock from Rocky had opened up this passage.
Still, Lin Fan didn't remain dazed for long as he took Rocky from Angela and went down the passage.
At the end of these stairs, there were the same doors as before.
But this time, the voice had a strange tone to it.
"My successor isn't with you, but I sense something familiar coming from this group. Just what is this feeling?"
When they heard this, they couldn't help looking around at each other as if they were trying to figure out what this voice was talking about.
But no one had any idea since they didn't sense anything strange coming from them.
After a long period, there was a light that came from the door that fell onto Rocky before the same voice said, "This one, I can feel something familiar coming from this one."
Everyone once again looked at Rocky with strange looks.
It seemed like it wasn't a coincidence that he had been able to create a resonance with the pedestal and open up the passage. However, no one could understand just what was special about Rocky that this happened.
Finally, the door opened and the voice, "You, come forward and meet me. I want to see you personally."
But Rocky just hid further in Lin Fan's arms.
Rocky didn't know what was happening, but he was scared of this voice that came out of nowhere.
Seeing this, Lin Fan said, "Can I come in with him?"
When he asked this, he also released the void laws that were inside of him.
"You?" The voice started saying before it suddenly fell silent as if it realized something. There was a silence that lingered in the air before the voice said again, "The Void God's successor?"
It asked this as if it wasn't asking anyone in particular.
After another silence, the voice said, "Alright, you can come in. I also need to see you."
With that, the door opened for the two of them.
Like with the other god fragments, they weren't able to see what was beyond this place.
Lin Fan turned around and gave a nod to the rest of them before heading through the door just like always. Though as he was going through, Rocky looked like he was scared of what was in front of them.
Rocky acted completely different from Xiao Huo and the rest when they were brought to see the god fragments.
It was most likely because there wasn't the bloodline resonance that the others had felt. So for Rocky, this was just a terrifying place that Lin Fan was bringing him to.
If it wasn't for the fact that Lin Fan was holding him and not letting him go, then he wouldn't have gone in the first place. At the same time, as they were heading in, Rocky looked back and asked Angela for help with his eyes.
This tugged at her heartstring, but she stopped herself in the end.
This was the trust that she had in Lin Fan.
If he was going forward and playing along with this, then she would trust him.
But if anything happened to Rocky…Lin Fan would be in for it when he returned.
After they went through, they appeared in a place that was very similar to the rest of the god fragment resting places.
The herbs quickly created a path for them and Lin Fan didn't waste any time to head to the statue that he knew was there.
When he arrived, he found that there was a figure that was already there waiting for him.
Unlike the rest of the figures that he had seen when he met with the other god fragments, this one was that of an old man. The rest were all young men and women and this was the first elderly figure that he had seen.
He couldn't help finding this strange, but he didn't have time to ask anything as the elderly figure immediately moved forward to stand in front of him.
Lin Fan was about to say something, but he found that the elderly figure completely ignored him and leaned in to look at Rocky. The look in his eyes showed that he was very confused as he looked at Rocky.
Seeing this old face suddenly appear in front of him, Rocky was caught off guard before shrinking into Lin Fan's arms.
He wasn't scared of new people normally, but this…this old face and the look that it had in its eyes, even Lin Fan couldn't help feeling a bit scared. It was as if this old man wanted to see every single part of your soul with the look that he had.
There was a long silence that filled the air as the old man just kept staring at Rocky.
Lin Fan tried coughing a few times to catch his attention, but all that happened was that he was completely ignored. It was as if the old man didn't have any interest in him and only cared about Rocky.
Rocky kept moving around and trying to avoid him, but the old man's gaze couldn't be avoided.
So in the end, all they could do was wait for the old man to finish and say something.
After a long period of silence, the old man finally brought his hands up and slammed one fist in the other palm as he said, "I got it!"
Without even caring about the two of them, he ran back over to the statue and jumped in, disappearing without a trace. After he was gone, it was just Lin Fan and Rocky who were left there standing awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
They couldn't understand what the old man was doing at all, so all they could do was wait patiently.
Well, all Lin Fan could do was wait patiently.
Rocky kept pulling at Lin Fan's sleeves and wanted him to leave this place.
But Lin Fan knew that they couldn't do that.
After what seemed like hours, the old man finally appeared again, but this time he wasn't alone. There seemed to be an egg in his hand that he was holding very carefully as he approached them.
The old man walked up in front of them and then placed the egg in front of them.
Without saying a word, the old man looked at them with an expectant look, as if he expected them to already know what to do. But Lin Fan and Rocky were both confused why this old man had suddenly placed this egg in front of them.
At the same time though, there was a bit of reaction from Rocky's eyes.
It was as if he could feel something that was familiar from this egg.
As they stood there in silence, the old man just looked at them with the same expectant look. But neither of them did a thing, so the old man finally couldn't help saying, "Well? Aren't you going to get in?"
When Lin Fan and Rocky heard this, they were even more confused.
Lin Fan looked at the old man and asked, "Sir, are you the Black Tortoise God's fragment?"
The old man gave a nod in response and said, "That's right. It seems like you've already met the other god fragments." Then after a pause, he added, "I can sense the stones on you."
When Lin Fan heard this, his expression couldn't help changing. He looked like he wanted to ask the old man something, but he held himself back in the end since there was something else that he had to deal with first.
He looked at the egg and asked, "Sir, what do you mean by getting in the egg?"
The old man shook his head and said, "I don't mean you. I mean the little one."
Lin Fan looked down at Rocky who was in his hands.
During this time, Rocky had been staring at the egg almost in a daze, as if he recognized something about this egg.
Lin Fan finally looked back up and asked, "Why would he get in the egg?"
The old man looked at Lin Fan with a confused look like he was looking at someone dumb. But then he said, "Of course, it's because it's his in the first place."
