150: Chapter 150 Your Grandfather

"Old Ancestor?" Lin Bei was stunned.

Could there be an even older fossil still alive in the Dan Family?

The explosion of the Heaven-Shaking Thunder mainly produced destructive and fire-element energy.

He wasn't as disheveled as the Elders of the Alchemy Pavilion in the explosion, and at this moment, his gaze also landed on the ground where Saint Dan Chen was looking.

Almost the entire Holy Alchemy City had been completely leveled by the explosion, but Lin Bei still recognized at a glance that the position was exactly where the Alchemy Tower had been before.

"Boom-crack!"

As if the sound of thunder had flashed past, the ground suddenly split open, and a pitch-black fissure appeared that was so deep its bottom couldn't be seen.

Immediately afterward, an incredibly powerful suction force emanated from the crack.

Lin Bei's expression changed, and he had to take out the moral seal to stabilize himself.

In an instant, all the explosive energy was completely absorbed by the fissure.

"Holy crap! This seems to be a big one!" Lin Bei clicked his tongue inwardly.

If the System's cooldown were finished, he would be ecstatic seeing this situation, but now he could only sigh in frustration.

"Bang!"

The shield in Saint Dan Chen's hand finally shattered.

He panted heavily, looking at the crack with fear and some humiliation in his eyes.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and shouted toward the crack, "Old Ancestor, please take action and obliterate this person!"

"Burp!" A burping sound seemed to come from the crack, and after a few breaths, a high-pitched voice rang out.

"Seeing as you've served this Old Ancestor quite well over these past ten thousand years, I'll help you this once..."

As the voice spoke, a ball of black light slowly rose from the crack.

"Thank you, Old Ancestor!" Saint Dan Chen showed surprise and joy, suppressing his previous fear.

This Old Ancestor, who came from who-knows-where, was not an easy master to talk to.

Saint Dan Chen had been worried that the other party would swallow him first after waking up.

In an instant, a terrifying aura filled the area, as if a demon were about to be born.

Under this aura, Lin Bei felt a bit powerless even to run, and could only wait quietly for the other party's arrival.

After a while, the black ball of light completely floated out of the fissure.

All the black light condensed toward the center, and the demon finally revealed its true face.

"Pfft!"

Even in such a tense atmosphere, Lin Bei still couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This was a pitch-black, oversized century egg; combined with those short limbs and the same black cape behind it, it was really hard not to laugh.

"Marshall Black?" He scrutinized the other party with doubt.

Saint Dan Chen's eyes lit up, and he became excited.

"He laughed! He actually dared to laugh! Good, great, now he's definitely dead!"

He still remembered the scene when he first saw this monster.

Ten thousand years ago, when he had just become a Saint, he followed two Late Stage Saint Seniors to explore the Underground Palace, and finally saw this monster in a stone room.

At that time, those two Seniors were swallowed by this monster in one bite because they laughed too loudly.

"Are! You! Laughing! At! Me!?"

An incredibly cold voice entered Lin Bei's ears.

He shook his head while laughing, "No, no, as the Lord of the Heavenly Court, I've undergone professional training. I generally don't laugh!"

Whether he was afraid or not, mocking others was always immoral; admitting it was out of the question.

"Do you take me for a fool? You're clearly laughing! You've been laughing ever since I appeared!" The intelligence of this black century egg seemed to be truly low.

Lin Bei immediately wiped the smile off his face, "You've misunderstood. I wasn't laughing at you, I just suddenly remembered something funny... Hahaha..."

As he spoke, he still couldn't hold back his laughter.

"Argh! Dammit!"

Hearing Lin Bei's increasingly unscrupulous laughter, the black century egg was furious.

"It's impossible for you to die easily now. This Venerable One will torture you for ten thousand years!"

After saying that, a cloud of black mist spewed from its mouth, turning into a black Dragon and charging straight at Lin Bei.

Before the black Dragon even reached him, Lin Bei already felt his body tighten, almost losing his ability to move.

"Great Saint strength!" He made a judgment instantly.

Just as he was about to do something, he suddenly felt a movement in his Portable Space, as if something was anxious to come out.

"Hmm? Out!"

With a thought, a 'Pikachu' appeared in front of him, looking excitedly at the black century egg not far away.

The black Dragon rushing at them instantly froze in mid-air, seemingly trembling slightly, and dissipated directly after a moment.

Also trembling was the Black-skinned monster, which only now noticed its surroundings and scanned the area.

Finally, it looked at Saint Dan Chen with some disbelief, "The... where is the Alchemy Tower?!"

Saint Dan Chen was somewhat confused, but he could feel that the other party was very afraid right now.

But he didn't dare to ask much and pointed at Lin Bei, "Old Ancestor, the Alchemy Tower has already been snatched by him!"

"I... holy shit!" Upon hearing this, the Black-skinned monster turned around and bolted, forgetting even to use flight or teleportation.

Its two short legs moved so fast they became afterimages, looking quite comical.

"Eya!" Seeing the other party flee, 'Pikachu' was very dissatisfied and opened its mouth to suck forward.

Without any seemingly powerful suction, the Black-skinned monster with Great Saint strength was involuntarily pulled back, flying toward 'Pikachu'.

"No! You can't do this! We're of the same kind!"

"Born of the same furnace, why suck each other so eagerly!"

...

The black century egg struggled constantly in the air, its mouth still shouting nonsensical words, but it was all useless.

Seeing that it couldn't escape the fate of being devoured, it glared viciously at Saint Dan Chen.

"It's all you! It's all because of you, you bastard! I was sleeping fine down there, and nothing would have happened!"

Without a word, Saint Dan Chen immediately tried to teleport away.

"Want to run? In your dreams! Die together with this Old Ancestor!"

A cloud of black mist appeared out of nowhere, forcefully interrupting Saint Dan Chen's teleportation and wrapping around him and the other three Elders, rapidly pulling them toward the Black-skinned monster.

Saint Dan Chen showed an expression of despair and bitterness. As he approached that pitch-black maw, he finally shouted the words he had held back for nearly ten thousand years.

"You black and ugly thing! Some 'Old Ancestor' you are, ancestor my ass!"

"Uh..." The black century egg was stunned for a moment.

By the time it came to its senses, it found that Saint Dan Chen and the others had already been swallowed into its belly, and it was not far from entering someone else's belly itself.

It closed its eyes and stopped struggling, as if accepting its fate.

"Eya eya..."

Seeing that the other party was about to enter its mouth, 'Pikachu' made an excited sound.

At the very moment they were close, the Black-skinned monster suddenly opened its eyes, which were full of resentment, staring at Lin Bei behind 'Pikachu'.

"You go to hell too!"

With that, its body suddenly split in two; eighty percent remained as it was, moving toward 'Pikachu'.

The other twenty percent turned into a Black Arrow, broke free from the suction, and shot violently toward Lin Bei.

"Eya eya eya..."

'Pikachu' was extremely anxious but was too late to block it.

It happened too suddenly. At such a close distance, it was difficult for Lin Bei to make any resistance, and he watched helplessly as the Black Arrow sank into his body.

The Black Arrow carried an extremely strong aura of decay, and Lin Bei's body immediately began to rot.
