Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

The eyes of the dry bones suddenly opened!

Two golden lights shot out from the eyes of the dried bones and headed straight for Lu Yuan!

Lu Yuan was startled and dodged quickly.

"boom!"

The golden light shone on the wall of the stone house, making a loud noise, and the wall was instantly pierced through.

"What a strong power!" Lu Yuan said in his heart.

He did not dare to be careless and quickly circulated his true energy to protect his whole body.

The dried bones slowly sat up, staring at Lu Yuan with his empty eyes.

"Who are you?" The voice of the skeleton was hoarse and low, as if it came from the depths of hell.

"Lu Yuan." Lu Yuan said lightly.

"Lu Yuan..." Ku Gu muttered to himself, with a trace of confusion in his eyes, "Who am I..."

"Are you an ancient immortal?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Ancient Immortal..." A trace of pain flashed in the eyes of the withered bones, "I... don't remember..."

"Then do you know where this place is?" Lu Yuan asked.

"This... is my... grave..." said the skeleton slowly.

"Your grave?" Lu Yuan was shocked. "Then why are you still alive?"

"I... don't know either..." A trace of confusion flashed in the dried bones' eyes, "I only remember... I slept here... for a very, very long time..."

"Sleeping for a very long time?" Lu Yuan's mind moved, "Then do you know how to get out?"

"Go out?" A trace of desire flashed in the eyes of the dried bones, "I... want to go out too..."

"Do you know how to get out?" Lu Yuan asked.

"I don't know..." Ku Gu shook his head, "I only know... there is... a... secret..."

"Secret?" Lu Yuan's mind moved, "What secret?"

The skeleton didn't say anything, but slowly stretched out his hand and pointed under the stone bed.

Lu Yuan looked in the direction of the dry bone's finger and saw a small hole under the stone bed.

"There... is... the secret..." said Ku Gu slowly.

Lu Yuan's heart moved, and he hurriedly walked to the stone bed and looked towards the cave entrance.

The entrance to the cave is very small and can only accommodate one person.

It was pitch black inside the cave and nothing could be seen.

"Do you want to go in?" asked the skeleton.

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

He took a deep breath, bent down and entered the cave.

Inside the cave entrance is a narrow passage.

The walls on both sides of the passage are engraved with various strange patterns.

Lu Yuan walked along the passage while observing the patterns on the wall.

The passage was very long. Lu Yuan walked for a long time but still did not reach the end.

Just then, he suddenly heard the sound of flowing water coming from the front.

"Is there... water ahead?" Lu Yuan's heart moved and he quickened his pace.

Soon, he came to the end of the passage. At the end of the passage was a huge underground space.

In the center of the underground space, there is a huge pool.

The water in the pool is crystal clear and emits a faint fluorescence.

In the center of the pond, a lotus is floating.

The lotus is snow-white all over and exudes a holy light.

"This is..." Lu Yuan was shocked. Could this be the legendary... fairy lotus?
The fairy lotus exuded a soft halo, and its petals were crystal clear, as if they were carved from the finest mutton-fat jade. A refreshing fragrance filled the entire underground space, and Lu Yuan felt refreshed, and all the fatigue of the past few days was swept away. Could this be the fairy lotus that could make people become immortals on the spot? Lu Yuan was ecstatic and almost couldn't help reaching out to pick it.

At this moment, the voice of the withered bones came faintly: "Boy, don't be impulsive. This fairy lotus is not so easy to pick."

Lu Yuan was startled and quickly turned to look at the withered bones. Unbeknownst to him, the withered bones had already stood at the entrance of the cave, with their empty eyes flashing with strange light.

"Senior, what is the secret of this fairy lotus?" Lu Yuan asked cautiously.

Withered Bones chuckled, his voice hoarse and harsh: "This fairy lotus is a spiritual object of heaven and earth, and it contains powerful vitality. But it is also spiritual, and only those who are destined can pick it. If you pick it by force, I am afraid you will be attacked."

Lu Yuan's heart trembled, and he quickly retracted his outstretched hand. He looked at the fairy lotus carefully and found that there was a layer of energy fluctuations around the lotus, like an invisible barrier, protecting the fairy lotus.

"Then how can we become the destined one?" Lu Yuan asked.

The dried bones did not answer directly, but asked: "Boy, do you desire power?"

Lu Yuan nodded without hesitation. In this world where the strong prey on the weak, strength is everything.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in the eyes of the withered bones, and he slowly said: "If you want to gain power, you have to pay a price. What price are you willing to pay?"

Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "As long as I can gain power, I am willing to pay any price."

The withered bone laughed strangely: "Good, you have courage! If you want to become the destined person of the fairy lotus, you must accept the test of the fairy lotus. This test is extremely dangerous, and you will lose your life if you are not careful. Have you thought it through?"

Lu Yuan took a deep breath and said firmly: "I've thought it through!"

"Very good!" A gleam of light flashed in Ku Gu's eyes, "Then jump into the pool."

Lu Yuan's heart trembled. The pool seemed calm, but it exuded an inexplicable pressure. Would it really be okay to jump in?

Seeing Lu Yuan hesitate, Ku Gu sneered: "What? Are you scared? Were all those bold words just now bullshit?"

Lu Yuan was stimulated by the dry bones and his blood suddenly boiled. He gritted his teeth, jumped and jumped into the pool.

"thump!"

The cold water instantly enveloped Lu Yuan's body. A powerful force pulled him down, as if dragging him into the abyss. Lu Yuan was startled and quickly circulated his true energy to resist.

However, this force was so strong that Lu Yuan felt as if his body was about to be torn apart. His consciousness began to blur and everything in front of him went dark.

At this moment, a warm current suddenly flowed into his body, dispelling the cold and relieving his pain. Lu Yuan opened his eyes and found himself surrounded by a ball of soft light.

He looked up and saw the fairy lotus emitting dazzling light, enveloping him.

A powerful life force surged into Lu Yuan's body, repairing his damaged meridians and strengthening his body.

Lu Yuan felt that his strength was constantly increasing, as if he had endless energy.

After an unknown amount of time, the light gradually faded away. Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and found that he had returned to the shore.

He stood up, clenched his fist, and felt full of strength. He felt that he could kill a cow with one punch.

"Congratulations, boy, you have passed the test of the Immortal Lotus and become the destined person of the Immortal Lotus." The voice of the withered bones came.

Lu Yuan turned his head to look at Ku Gu and found that there was a hint of envy in Ku Gu's eyes.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior." Lu Yuan said respectfully.

"No need to thank me," Ku Gu waved his hand, "This is all your own good fortune. Now, you can pick the fairy lotus."

Lu Yuan walked to the edge of the pond, stretched out his hand, and gently plucked the fairy lotus. (End of this chapter)
