Apocalypse: The Primordial Pearl Recognizes Its Master, Starting with Infinite Space

Lin Chen was somewhat helpless. Although he was suppressing the four people, he couldn't kill any of them at the moment.

He had no choice but to beat up the Devouring Ancestor while chatting with him, trying to extract some useful information: "By the way, weren't you off hunting down powerful beings from beyond the realm?"

He remembered that the prisoners of the gods said that the Devouring Ancestor was hunting down powerful beings from beyond the realm.

The Devouring Ancestor glared at him hatefully, without saying a word.

Lin Chen was annoyed. His defeated opponent dared to ignore him: "Are you going to talk or not? If you don't, I'll slap your nose again."

The Devouring Ancestor's face immediately turned bright red, and he could only say in a fit of exasperation, "That guy is skilled in the Law of Darkness, and now the Dark Ancestor has gone after him."

"I see!" Lin Chen suddenly realized that they had secretly switched people. He couldn't help but complain, "You guys have been at it for so long and still haven't caught that person. Aren't you all useless?"

"What do you know? A tenth-tier expert isn't so easy to catch," the Devouring Ancestor retorted unhappily.

Just then, alarm bells rang in Lin Chen's mind.

The laws of the mind throbbed slightly between his brows, and an invisible sense of danger pierced his mind like a needle.

Without hesitation, he pushed the Time Prison to its limit, using the opportunity to move his body a thousand feet horizontally.

A jet-black blade grazed past his afterimage, tearing a rift in the solid void.

If he had been a fraction of a second slower, this strike would have pierced his chest.

"Huh?" A soft exclamation came from the void, carrying a hint of surprise.

A slender, tall figure emerged from the darkness.

She was clad in a long, black robe, her face was aloof and stunningly beautiful, her long, silvery-white hair moved behind her without wind, and her golden eyes were as deep as an abyss, as if they could devour all light.

Her aura was more restrained than anyone else's, yet it sent chills down one's spine; she was none other than the Dark Ancestor among the Twelve Ancestors.

Lin Chen had no choice but to withdraw all his clones and stand a thousand feet away, his expression unchanged, but his heart sank slightly.

Kong Zu frowned: "An Zu? What brings you here?"

Dark Ancestor's gaze remained fixed on Lin Chen, his voice cold and indifferent: "We were chasing that extraterrestrial powerhouse and ended up in this star field. Sensing a battle here, we came to investigate."

She paused, a slight smile playing on her lips. "I didn't expect to see something interesting."

Her gaze swept over the ravaged camp, then at the panting Poison Ancestor, Light Ancestor, and Devouring Ancestor, finally settling on Lin Chen. A strange glint flashed in her eyes: "One person, suppressing all four of you?"

Poison Ancestor and Light Ancestor had ashen faces and remained silent.

Just now, the two of them were like idiots. They were trapped by an array as soon as they came up, and they didn't even have a chance to fight back. Instead, they ended up in a very embarrassing situation.

Especially Poison Ancestor, who now realized that Lin Chen had been playing a trick on him all along.

Lin Chen also frowned as he looked at An Zu; her arrival had disrupted the balance.

He was already struggling to deal with four people by himself, and with one more, especially the Dark Ancestor who was most skilled in stealth and assassination, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

"What's going on? Can someone tell me?" Dark Ancestor stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Sky Ancestor and the others with a puzzled expression.

Kong Zu had no choice but to briefly explain Lin Chen's situation to her, which made An Zu marvel.

Guang Kongzu took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said in a deep voice, "Attack together, don't give him a chance to breathe."

The five progenitors exchanged a glance and moved simultaneously.

Kong Zu maintained the spatial blockade, solidifying the void within a thousand miles into a solid block.

The Light Ancestor's Law of Light transformed into countless golden light swords, which rained down on Lin Chen.

The Poison Ancestor's poisonous mist surged in like a tide, blocking all escape routes.

The Devouring Ancestor's devouring power formed a huge vortex in front, pulling Lin Chen's figure.

The Dark Ancestor, however, vanished into the darkness and disappeared from perception.

Lin Chen frowned slightly, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up. He said calmly, "Gentlemen, it's five against one, so I won't keep you company. If you still dare to chase after me, the next battlefield won't be the Qinglan Star Region, but the Divine Realm."

Before the words were finished, the prison was opened.

The laws of time enveloped the entire area, slowing down everyone's movements as if a deceleration button had been pressed. The spatial blockade was lifted, the lightsabers hovered in mid-air, the poisonous mist solidified like a painting, and the vortex of devouring food rotated as slowly as a snail.

Even the Dark Ancestor, who had been hidden in the darkness, was forced to reveal himself. His slender figure appeared in the void, and a hint of surprise flashed in his golden pupils.

The Dao Fruits within the five progenitors spun wildly, resisting the erosion of the laws of time.

Lin Chen raised his hand and tore open a spatial rift. His figure flashed and disappeared into the rift. Before leaving, he gave them a meaningful smile.

The crack slowly closed, and the five ancestors finally broke free of their restraints, looking at each other in dismay.

The aftershocks of the prison dissipated, the lightsaber vanished powerlessly, the poisonous mist slowly dissipated, and everything returned to calm.

Kong Zu's face turned ashen, but he had to admit a fact: if this human was determined to leave, they could not keep him.

The Dark Ancestor emerged from the darkness, his cold face expressionless, only his golden pupils slightly narrowed: "He actually managed to transform into a Time Dao Fruit, no wonder you are no match for him."

Guangzu sheathed his light sword and said in a deep voice, "If this boy is not eliminated, he will surely become a major threat to the divine race."

Poison Ancestor wiped the sweat from his forehead and remained silent.

The Devouring Ancestor said in a low voice, "You heard what he just said. Next time, the battlefield will be the Divine Realm."

The five progenitors fell silent. They knew Lin Chen wasn't bluffing. He truly possessed this ability.

In the distance, the clones of the Demon Ancestor and the Dragon Ancestor still hovered in the void, taking in the entire scene.

The Demon Ancestor's lips curled into a playful smile as he murmured, "Interesting. The gods have bitten off more than they can chew this time."

The Dragon Ancestor's gruff voice rang out: "Let's go back and think carefully about how to deal with this human."

The two clones quietly disappeared, leaving only the five progenitors of the God Clan and the devastated Qinglan Camp in the void.

Kong Zu suddenly punched Du Zu in the face. The punch was quite powerful, and Du Zu was knocked off balance, his face burning with pain.

"Third brother, have you gone mad!"

"It's all your fault for being selfish!" Kong Zu glared angrily. "You had the information but didn't share it with everyone, which gave that brat the opportunity to grow bigger!"

Poison Ancestor rubbed the spot where he'd been punched, and said irritably, "What do you mean I had selfish motives? How was I supposed to know this kid would grow so fast! The news Gar brought back back was just about a ninth-tier human who had mastered multiple laws. Who could have imagined he could break through to the tenth tier in just a few years? Who among you could have predicted that?"

He glanced around, trying to pull someone into the water.

Kong Zu sneered: "If you weren't driven by selfish motives, would you have gone to the Tianyuan Star Region alone? And then been stopped by the Demon Ancestor and the Dragon Ancestor, giving them the opportunity to break through!"

Poison Ancestor was speechless. He knew he had acted dishonestly.

Kong Zu was the first to discover Lin Chen's existence. He was just following the clues, but he tried to steal the chicken and ended up losing the rice instead.

Dark Ancestor, who had been standing silently to the side, finally spoke, his voice as cold as ice: "If you ask me, the ones who should be punished the most are not Poison Ancestor, but those good-for-nothings like Garr, Dark Ze, Poison Ga, and Aisen."

She paused, a cold glint flashing in her golden pupils. "If Gar hadn't been careless, allowing that human to escape from Blue Star; if Dark Ze and Poison Ga hadn't joined forces and failed to stop him; if Eisen hadn't cultivated his influence in the Tianyuan Starfield for so many years, not even knowing where the other was hiding—how could that kid have possibly broken through to the tenth rank alive?"

Her expression was slightly distorted by anger, completely ruining her originally beautiful face.
