“Don’t worry.” Lu Zhou slowly raised his hand. Energy surged out, emitting a brilliant light.

The stone door that was densely carved with complicated symbols appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Huang Yu said, “Only Yu Chenchu could open this door. However, he left a key to his confidant who would come to clean the room every once in a while. Apart from that, no one is able to enter.”

Lu Zhou asked, “Where’s the key?”

“We don’t know.” Huang Yu and He Zhong shook their heads.

“Master,” Little Yuan’er said, “Just save the trouble and kick the door open.”

Upon hearing this, Wuwu and Ji Fengxing instinctively moved to the side.

Little Yuan’er rushed to the door and directly kicked the door.

Bang!

Dust stirred up from the kick and fell on the stone door that was about 300 feet tall. Apart from that, nothing happened.

Little Yuan’er withdrew her feet. The corners of her lips turned down as she put her hands on her hips and scoffed. “I don’t believe this wicked door is so strong! I’m going to destroy it!”

He Zhong hurriedly moved in front of Little Yuan’er to stop her. He said, “No, no, no, my great little ancestor, you can’t do this! It’s not difficult for a cultivator to destroy this door, but what if the door collapses? Luo Xuan is still inside, after all, and I heard her condition isn’t very good.”

A small stone door, naturally, could not stop cultivators, let alone an elite like Lu Zhou who had formed his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar.

Huang Yu looked at He Zhong and asked teasingly, “Aren’t you able to unlock the door with your fingernail?”

“Give me some time! Just watch,” He Zhong said as he turned around to face the door.

To be precise, what prevented the stone door from opening was not a lock, but some mechanism and a Formation. It was difficult for ordinary cultivators to open it, but the lunatics from the Sky Research Court loved a challenge.

However, Lu Zhou raised his hand and stopped He Zhong, “Let me do it...”

“Yes, Senior Lu...”

Lu Zhou stood in front of the stone door before he gently pushed his hand out until his palm was flushed against the stone door.

The symbols on the door lit up immediately.

As soon as they lit up, Lu Zhou felt his heart stir. The symbols were not incomprehensible at all. It was in fact an engraving of a symbol that everyone on earth recognized; it was a dragon.

As a transmigrator, Lu Zhou was naturally familiar with the eastern culture since he was young. How could he not recognize the dragon although right now, the symbols were just a rough carving of the dragon?

“It’s a carving of a fierce beast?!”

“What fierce beast is this?”

Lu Zhou looked at Meng Changdong, Xia Changqiu, and the others and said, “It’s a dragon.”

“A dragon? There are many kinds of dragons recorded in the ancient books, but none of them look like this,” Li Yunzheng said in confusion.

“What do the dragons in the ancient books look like?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Oh... There are a lot of them. There are seven or eight kinds of dragons recorded in the ancient books, but none of them are curved like this... It’s strange. They look like insects...” Li Yunzheng said.

“Stop talking nonsense and slap your mouth.” Lu Zhou frowned.

Everyone was stunned.

Although Li Yunzheng was the emperor, his other identity was that of Lu Zhou’s granddisciple. It was natural for a grandmaster to discipline his granddisciple.

Li Yunzheng raised his hand and symbolically slapped his mouth. Then, he returned his gaze to the lit-up dragon carving and asked, “Grandmaster, what’s this?”

“It’s an ancient and sacred dragon... Legend has it that it can be visible and invisible, small and big, short and long... It’s the symbol of a nation; the symbol of the spirit,” Lu Zhou explained as he continued to channel his Primal Qi into the door.

Li Yunzheng nodded despite the confused expression on his face.

Huang Yu praised Lu Zhou. “I see. Senior Lu is truly knowledgeable. I’m impressed.”

As soon as Huang Yu finished speaking, the symbols moved before they formed a complete dragon.

Following that, Lu Zhou channeled his extraordinary energy into the door.

A dragon came to life and flew out of the door before it disappeared into thin air.

Bang!

The stone door collapsed into a pile of rubble in just an instant.

Everyone retreated to avoid the falling rubble.

Only Lu Zhou remained motionless, pushing the rubble away with his energy.

He Zhong exclaimed in surprise, “Senior Lu’s cultivation is truly profound and awe-inspiring! This stone isn’t made from ordinary materials, and yet, Senior Lu easily turned it into a pile of rubble!”

The others did not pay attention to He Zhong.

He Zhong asked Xia Changqiu awkwardly, “Don’t you think so?”

Xia Changqiu, Meng Changdong, and the others acted as though they did not hear He Zhong.

“It’s really very impressive...” He Zhong’s praise sounded unnatural and forced.

The Cloud Mountain’s Nie Qingyun looked at He Zhong as though He Zhong was an idiot. His expression seemed to say, “Is he really a genius from the Sky Research Court?” Why was He Zhong making a fuss over nothing?

Lu Zhou walked into the stone room with his hands on his back.

Light shone through from both sides of the long corridor.

The condition of the stone room was worlds apart from the dark prison cells behind them.

Everyone was surprised by this sight.

“Yu Chenshu was really generous to spend so much money building such a place.”

Soon after, the corridor led them to the deepest part of the room.

Everyone came to a halt immediately.

There was a bed in the center of the room. A woman with white hair and a wrinkled face lay quietly on the bed. Her eyes were glassy; there was no sign of life in them at all.

Huang Yu sighed. “Who knew she’d end up like this?”

Lu Zhou did not say anything and walked to the side of the bed. His eyes fell on the woman.

In 300 years, the woman in front of Lu Zhou had lost her youth. Nevertheless, he could still recognize her from his memories. There was no doubt the woman lying on the bed was Luo Xuan whom Ji Tiandao had met 300 years ago.

At this moment, time seemed to speed backward. Memories of the past returned to Lu Zhou’s mind.

It seemed like the legend of the dragon had been told to her in that unknown place.

They had supported each other and escaped unknown dangers until they reached the

The legend of the dragon seemed to have been told to her in that unknown place.

They had supported each other and escaped from unknown dangers... until they arrived in Great Yan.

Since Lu Zhou did not speak, the others, naturally, remained silent. No one knew what was going through his mind at this moment.

On the other hand, Conch began to feel dizzier and dizzier. It was as though she had imbibed too much alcohol or as though she had been drugged. However, she steeled herself and tried her best not to faint or fall.

At this moment, Lu Zhou finally asked, “You took something from me. When will you return it?”

Luo Xuan’s eyes remained lifeless, looking as though she did not hear Lu Zhou at all.

“Senior Lu, she has lost her soul. That was why there was nothing Yu Chenshu could do to her. We learned from her and pretended to be crazy as well,” Huang Yu said with a wry smile on his face.

Lu Zhou ignored Huang Yu and continued to ask, “Where’s the Great Void?”

Huang Yu suddenly trembled when he heard this question. “Why is everyone asking the same question? Yu Chenshu had asked this as well. Every time he came here, he would ask this question. His voice was loud, and he sounded like a madman... Great Void... What is it exactly?”

Hearing this question.

Huang Yu suddenly quivered and said: “Why are you all asking this question? Yu Chenshu seems to be asking too. Every time she comes down, she has to ask. His voice is too loud, like a madman. Taixu... What is it?”

Lu Zhou looked at Huang Yu and said, “Everyone, leave.”

Everyone bowed and left one after another.

Meanwhile, Conch was about to turn around when she finally could not endure it and fell.

“Master! Conch is...” Little Yuan’er hurriedly caught Conch.

Lu Zhou glanced at the Conch and said, “Take her out, and let her rest.”

Little Yuan’er said in shock, “Master... She’s... She’s really hot to the touch!”

Lu Zhou frowned. Why would Conch have a fever for no reason? Normally, it was impossible for cultivators to run a fever. If she had a fever, it could be that she was poisoned.

“You and Conch can stay. The others may leave.”

“Yes.”

Everyone turned around and began to leave one after another.

Before Huang Yu left, he said, “The Sky Research Court’s Sun Zhonghua is skilled in medicine and healing. Should I summon him here?”

“There’s no need for that for now. If there’s a need, I’ll call you.”

“Then we’ll take our leave!” Huang Yu and He Zhong turned around and left the underground prison. They knew it would not be appropriate for them to stay any longer so they left quickly.

After everyone left, Lu Zhou waved his hand casually. Energy surged out and shrouded Conch before it carried her in front of Lu Zhou.

Subsequently, Lu Zhou raised his palm. Soon enough, a blue lotus appeared on his palm.
