The White Tiger Stone didn\'t take long to arrive.

Unlike at the Phoenix Race and the Qilin Race, the tribe that kept the White Tiger Stone quickly sent it over when the elders sent someone to retrieve it.

There wasn\'t a jealous ex or some other problem that had complicated this process.

When it came, it was brought over to Lin Fan to see what he would do with it.

Lin Fan picked up the White Tiger Stone and felt the same feeling from it as the other stones that he had received.

He held this White Tiger Stone in his hand for a bit before taking out another stone.

This was a stone that looked similar in shape and size to the White Tiger Stone, but the difference was that it had a different colour. It was actually a mix of three different colours on this stone.

The azure from the Dragon Stone, the red from the Phoenix Stone, and the purple from the Qilin Stone.

This was the stone that had been formed when those three had combined.

It still gave off the same feeling as the three separate stones even though it was a combination of all three.

Lin Fan didn\'t know what would happen when all five stones came together as one, but he didn\'t feel like the god fragments would mislead him. There must be something that had been left behind for him by the one that had created these stones.

So he brought the White Tiger Stone over to the mixed stone.

Just like before, there was the same reaction where there was an attractive force between the two stones. It didn\'t take long before they suddenly came together and fused as one.

But the moment that the White Tiger Stone fused with the mixed stone, Lin Fan couldn\'t help knitting his brows.

That was because the feeling that came from the mixed stone had completely changed.

It was no longer the same feeling that it gave off when it was still the individual stones, but rather a much stronger feeling. However, Lin Fan could still feel the traces of the void law coming from the stone.

This stone had transformed into something that was completely different. It was now a stronger version of what the stones had been on their own and the void laws that it released was much clearer that Lin Fan could feel a resonance with them.

But at the same time, he could tell that these void laws were much stronger than his own.

If he had to guess what this was, this came from a more developed version of the Void Physique, so it should be the more advanced version of his own void laws that would have developed over time.

Sensing this, he started analyzing them as he tried to figure out how to develop his own void laws, but he found that he wasn\'t able to synchronize with the void laws in the stone at all. It was at just too high of a level for him to decipher.

But as he tried deciphering it, there were parts of it that he drew inspiration from and was able to improve his own void laws.

During all of this, the various elders of the five sacred beast races were all looking carefully at the stone.

The moment that the stone had changed, all of them had noticed the change with the stone.

This was a feeling that triggered them to their core as they wanted to use this stone, but they held back in the end since they had already felt this feeling from the stone before. It was just that this time, it was much stronger than anything that they had felt before.

They didn\'t know what had happened, but they had a guess…

Since their ancestors had told them to leave this stone to the Void God\'s successor, they would do that regardless of how they felt.

But before they dropped this, they had to remind Lin Fan of something.

So one of the Great Elders said, "Void God\'s successor, even if we are able to restrain ourselves in front of this stone, there will be those that won\'t be able to restrain themselves. Those that have weaker cultivations and weaker wills will not be able to stop themselves from trying to take this stone from you by any means."

Lin Fan had been focused on the stone when he heard this, but he still turned back to give a nod in response to this.

But then, he waved his hand at the Great Elder as if he was asking him to come over.

The Great Elder was surprised to see this, but he still went over as Lin Fan requested.

When the Great Elder was standing there in front of him with a confused look, Lin Fan suddenly brought the stone in his hand closer.

The Great Elder was caught off guard by this, but he didn\'t resist.I think you should take a look at

When the stone was brought to the Great Elder\'s arm and placed on it, the Great Elder found…that there wasn\'t the feeling that he had expected to come from it. Instead, there was no feeling at all as if the void laws weren\'t interacting with him at all.

But he could feel that there were indeed void laws that were inside of this stone…

So what was going on?

Could it be that something was broken with this new stone?

The Great Elder took the stone from Lin Fan\'s hand and grasped it tight in his hand, as if he was trying to activate it. Seeing that nothing happened, the Great Elder tried all kinds of different things with the stone.

He tried injecting his life energy in, he tried putting it on different spots of his body, he tried all kinds of strange things as he tried to get this stone to activate.

But no matter what he did, he didn\'t feel a single thing from the stone.

It was as if it had been completely broken.

Seeing the way that he acted, the other elders couldn\'t help looking closer and using their spiritual senses to sweep the stone itself. But the moment that their spiritual senses even came close to the stone, they were sucked in by the void laws.

At the very least, they were certain that there were still void laws that were inside of this stone…

But it no longer did what it had done before…

Finally, the Great Elder couldn\'t help giving up and turning back to look at Lin Fan, hoping that he would have some explanation for this.

Lin Fan said, "It\'s been transformed. There might still be void laws inside of this stone, but the void laws have become a different kind from the ones used to drain impurities from bloodlines."

After he said this, all of them turned to look at the stone again.

None of them doubted the words that he said since they could all feel the void laws that were coming from this stone. But in that case, why would the ancestors leave such a thing for them?

They knew that all five sacred beast races had been instructed to give their race\'s stone to the Void God\'s successor. Now that they knew that these stones would combine when brought together like this, they knew that this was what the ancestors had planned all along.

But why would they do that?

The stones had been the treasures of their races and had been the things that they had relied on to purify their bloodlines for each generation. So why would the ancestors leave them something that would go against that when they were combined?

Were they giving up on them or…was there a different reason?

Lin Fan had actually already thought of the reason and hadn\'t said it out loud since he knew that it would bring trouble to him.

The very simple reason was that there was no need for these stones once they had found the Void God\'s successor.

The Void God\'s successor would be able to do everything that the stones had been able to do and would be able to do it at a better level than the stones. So that was most likely the reason why the stones lost this power once they were combined.

Lin Fan even had a theory in his mind.

The stones had actually been something that the Void God had left behind for their successor, but they altered the stones when they were passed down to the five sacred beast races. It was most likely at the request of the five sacred beast races\' gods.

They wanted these things to help purify the bloodline of their descendants so that a true descendant would appear sooner. 

Since the Void God knew that their successor would need the help of these true descendants, they decided to go along with the plan of the five sacred beast races\' gods.

Then when the Void God\'s successor was found, they would combine the stone and it would lose that power, turning into the real item left by the Void God for their successor.

But Lin Fan didn\'t tell them this theory since…the moment that he did, he was certain that he would be bombarded by requests to help purify the bloodlines of descendants of the five sacred beast races.

This would mean having to train and beat up all those different juniors, it would take up a lot of his time that he didn\'t have.

And with the help that he had received from the five sacred beast races, it would be hard for him to reject.

So he decided to keep this to himself.

At the same time though, Lin Fan couldn\'t help looking forward to what the stone would transform into once he got the final Black Tortoise Stone.
