He lightly touched the stone slab, and magic flowed from his fingertips.

With the effect of 【Comprehend Languages】, the obscure text carved on the slab gradually became clear in Mo Di's eyes.

'This seems to be the language of Eternity Continent's Second Era.'

The moment he saw the first sentence, an ominous premonition stirred within him.

This premonition, composed of intuition, Malice Detection, Danger Perception, curses, and various other factors, had an accuracy rate of seventy percent.

Continuing to read, he finally understood the source of his ominous feeling, and his entire face turned into a 'Sea Tiger' black face.

'The War of Sunset, the God of Light fell... I, Ampro Morton, the twenty-seventh Bishop of the Eternal Daybreak Court, was fortunate enough to preserve a shard of the light god, sealed within the Sanctuary's Altar of Light and Shadow...'

He almost couldn't maintain the smile on his face, which completely fell.

'Qua, it's a shard of the light god, I don't want it, I don't want to carry it!'

The old professors beside him, seeing his expression, were both worried and curious.

"Mr. Mo, have you discovered something?" Professor Zhang asked.

"Yes, I've found something... something not good."

Pulling at the corners of his mouth, Mo Di decided to call Ling Tianfeng and ask him to send more people to secure the area.

A shard of the light god sounded like a good thing, and in reality, it was a good thing.

It was just excessively dangerous, far more dangerous than a Tsar Bomba.

Fortunately, although global communication was down, inter-city communication was maintained with the support of Ling Corporation, and his call quickly went through.

"Senior, has something happened to the expedition team?"

Ling Tianfeng's voice came from the other end of the line, and Mo Di said without hesitation: "Send more engineering teams over; I've found a dangerous item here that can be used to deal with the Frost噬 Giant Spider."

The fewer the words, the more urgent the matter.

Ling Tianfeng also understood the seriousness of the situation and immediately dispatched more personnel to the survey area as requested.

Coughing twice, he pulled his thick clothes tighter and looked out the window.

The cold wind blowing from Nanfeng City still raged, and he wondered when it would end.

"A time of trouble... those guys are stirring up trouble again. I need to find a way to deal with them. Now that all of humanity faces challenges, I don't have time to mess around with them."

Thinking this, he called his son-in-law.

In the survey area, Mo Di, led by the expedition team members, arrived at the entrance of the underground ruins where the stone slab was excavated.

'Altar of Light and Shadow, I didn't expect the Mist to even take things from Eternity Continent. Whose handiwork is it, after all?'

Being able to take an Eternal-level Frost噬 Giant Spider, and also the shard of a deceased Demon God, this Mist is definitely not simple.

It's highly likely to be the work of a Demon God-level existence.

'This altar too, the arrangements left by Bishop Ampro of the Eternal Daybreak Court, must be full of dangers.'

Ampro Morton, an Eternal who believed in and followed the God of Light, disappeared after the War of Sunset.

But Mo Di, familiar with the plot, knew that he, like most Eternals, was hiding in another realm, waiting for the right moment to return to Eternity Continent and display his astonishing wisdom.

To create a God of Light, that was his goal, and the goal of all members of the Eternal Daybreak Court.

Who became the God of Light was not important; they only needed a God of Light capable of protecting them.

'A bunch of audacious madmen,' Mo Di commented on them.

At the entrance of the ruins, a large door blocked his way.

【Danger Perception】 triggered, and he sensed magic traps on it.

Through 【Aether Vision】, he saw three magical auras fixed on the door, symbolizing the three magic traps on it.

"Under the ravages of time, these three magic traps have lost their original power, which is convenient for me."

The original traps were likely set by an Eternal himself; he probably wouldn't even be able to perceive them, let alone disarm them.

But now, he had at least eight ways to disarm them.

Curse magic attached to the door, flowing along the patterns symbolizing light until it touched the magic runes that made up the traps.

The magic seeped into the runes bit by bit, gradually distorting and modifying their meaning.

The rune that originally symbolized "conduction" was altered by him to symbolize "severance," so that when he pushed the door, the triggered signal would not be transmitted to the next detonation rune.

The magic trap would then be ineffective.

The additional engineering team hadn't arrived yet, but Mo Di pushed the door open first.

Behind the door was a not-so-narrow passage, with candlesticks on both sides lighting up one after another, clearly some kind of automatically activated magical device.

However, Mo Di hesitated to take a step forward.

In the passage, the dense magical auras made his scalp tingle.

"Madmen, no wonder the Eternal Daybreak Court is full of madmen. Who would set up so many traps in their own sanctuary? It's not like a Dragon Priest sleeping in an ancient tomb."

He looked at the stone platform inlaid with crystals nearby and immediately understood that this was an identity verification device exclusive to the Eternal Daybreak Court.

The only problem was that he didn't have a token from the Eternal Daybreak Court and could only attempt to hack it.

"After so many years, this thing should have some vulnerabilities, right? Don't tell me there aren't any at all."

With a bitter face, Mo Di fully dedicated himself to cracking the ancient magical device.

The difficulty of cracking this device was clearly higher than that of cracking the traps on the door.

At least Mo Di was sweating profusely.

When the additional engineering team personnel arrived at the scene, they immediately saw him standing by the stone platform, his right hand pressed against the crystal in the platform, cold sweat streaming down his face.

Even the low temperature inherent in his Wendigo Bloodline couldn't stop him from overheating.

"Click."

With a crisp sound, the crystal in the stone platform sank downwards.

Mo Di lifted his slightly trembling right hand and glanced at the brightly lit passage; most of the previous magical auras had already disappeared.

Only a few remained, likely because the identity verification device was old and in disrepair, and couldn't connect with these few magic traps.

This was not a problem; he quickly disarmed all of them.

"The traps ahead have all been cleared," he told the engineering team personnel, "You wait outside for now; later, you might need to excavate these ruins."

"I understand." The engineering team personnel would naturally obey his orders.

After explaining the precautions, Mo Di entered the ruins alone, truly entering the interior of the Eternal Daybreak Court's sanctuary, the "Altar of Light and Shadow."

Similar to other Eternal Daybreak Court ruins he had visited in the Eternal Realm, the Altar of Light and Shadow was divided into two parts, light and dark, corresponding to light and shadow.

He was currently in the bright Altar of Light, where there was nothing of value.

Valuable items, including the shard of the light god, were likely in the dark Altar of Shadow.

"What burns itself to forge a crown of light? Why is it this riddle again?" He stared at the words carved on the stone slab of the Altar of Light, quite speechless.

The guys from the Eternal Daybreak Court were all riddlers, and the way to open the Altar of Shadow was also to answer a riddle.

And this riddle, he had encountered in a small part of the Eternal Daybreak Court ruins in the Eternal Realm.

Its answer, Mo Di already knew by heart.

Taking a candlestick from the wall and placing it on the stone slab, he said, "Candle."

The moment the word left his mouth, the altar responded.

Space distorted, and the Altar of Shadow, located in the depths of the shadows, emerged and overlapped with the Altar of Light.

"Spatial overlap, this is an Eternal's technique, but... the engineering quality isn't great."

The overlap of the two altars clearly had flaws, perhaps due to wear and tear caused by time.

But none of this mattered; what was important was that the shard of the light god was unaffected.

Regarding the corpse of his boss, Ampro was still very reliable; at least the container preserving the shard of the light god had no problems.

"No mistake, this is the God of Light's corp... shard."

Taking a deep look at the brilliant light suspended in the center of the altar, Mo Di did not foolishly touch the object, but instead retreated one step, two steps... until he reached the doorway.

He had obtained a shard of the light god in the game and knew how dangerous this item was.

"This thing is still too dangerous; I need to reinforce the seal on the main door to prevent others from accidentally entering."

Mo Di acted on his thought, personally setting a series of spells on the main door.

After a final glance at the door, which was full of magical auras, he wiped his sweat with satisfaction.

The rest would be handled by the engineering team; he only needed to preside over and oversee the area to ensure they didn't accidentally touch anything.

Ling Corporation's engineering team worked quickly and didn't foolishly touch things, taking less than a week to excavate the entire Altar of Light and Shadow.

During these days, Mo Di also pondered how to utilize this shard of the light god.

The simplest method was to directly activate the shard, but this would wipe Greenlawn City off the map.

And he wouldn't survive either.

"So I only have one choice, and that is to guide out a portion of the shard of the light god's power to eliminate the Frost噬 Giant Spider."

The shard of the light god was not a childish thing like the Black Sky Buddha Mother's Curse; Mo Di knew what to be greedy for and what not to be.

If possible, he wouldn't even want to touch this thing.

"The Frost噬 Giant Spider is imminent, and this thing is the only way to break the deadlock. How can such a coincidence happen?"

Mo Di, feeling exhausted, called Ling Tianfeng, and the coughing sound from the other end of the line made him frown.

"You don't sound right."

"I'm a bit off, but it's nothing serious. What are your instructions, Senior?"

Mo Di asked him for some relevant researchers and supplies, and he agreed.

Hanging up the phone, Mo Di walked out of the tent, and the cold wind blowing from Nanfeng City hit his face, giving him a sense of comfort.

"It seems colder today than yesterday."

"That's right, the temperature dropped again today, all thanks to that damned spider."

His assistant next to him tightened his clothes and complained.

"Yes, it's getting cold." Mo Di looked in the direction of Nanfeng City and said this without any particular reason.

Recently, certain people in Ling Corporation had been very active, even extending their claws to him.

'It's one thing to plant people around me, but they even obstruct my research and try to pry into the news of the shard of the light god. They truly don't know how to write the word 'death.''

Mo Di's face was cold, and the surrounding environment produced frost with the change in his mood.

'Ling Tianfeng must be ill, but I don't know how serious it is. It's better to prepare early.'

With this thought, he pulled out his phone again and called his apprentice, Long Yutian.

And told him to prepare for taking over early.
