Lin Mu was a bit taken aback by the entire series of events. From what Kong Hutao's spirit portrait had said, there would be a test for him, but now it seemed to be far different from before.

Lin Mu's vision returned to the same ruins as before and he understood that whatever the test was, it was now over.

"That's it? I thought it would be a bit more difficult than that." Lin Mu muttered.

It was even more perplexing for him since there were so many skeletons and remains around the ruins showed that whatever the test was, it was far more dangerous than this. Plus, the formation arrays were rather complex as well.

"Seems like you being the world's ordained was enough to bypass the test." Xukong spoke.

"Perhaps…" Lin Mu muttered and looked towards the coffin, which had started to move.

~CREAK~

The coffin started to slide and a staircase was revealed below it.

"So, I'm supposed to go down?" Lin Mu guessed and walked towards it.

Little Shrubby waited outside, since they did not know if the formations would react to him being a test taker as well. The staircase was covered in darkness and Lin Mu had to light a flame above his hand to illuminate the path.

He could see that the walls of the stairwell were made from solid rock and the staircase was the same as well. Lin Mu walked for about a minute before reaching the very bottom of it.

There, he could see what looked like a very plain looking platform and on that platform, a table was placed. Walking up to it, Lin Mu discovered what looked like a small rectangular piece of stone kept on the platform.

"Is this the key?" Lin Mu said as he picked the rectangular stone up.
