“What about Lower Divine Status, Middle Divine Status? Emperor Lanlingster was the only Superior God for countless years.”

“However, the Transcendent Realm beyond the Ninth Rank was merely a matter of imagination to him.”

Leonard Churchill could not comprehend what that precisely meant.

He just felt a strange sensation as he looked at the murals.

A hand that could contend with the Dragon God in direct combat?

“No wonder the Royal Academy continuously draws Divinity from the Great Hand; otherwise, it could probably destroy the world…”

For over a hundred thousand years of consumption, the hand that could still necessitate several top-tier powerhouses of the Royal Academy to cooperate to suppress it hinted at how terrifying its original Divinity must have been.

In terms of energy, Leonard felt that the Great Hand might be stronger than all the known Elements Mine Veins in the East Wilderness combined.

It was so powerful that it seemed as if it should not exist in this Cavern World.

Merely by seeing the content carved on the sculptures, it was as if Leonard’s mind had gained some “loose threads” completely unrelated to his existing knowledge.

It was like the world’s puzzle that normally fit together logically in terms of color and pattern.

Yet now, suddenly, there were a few pieces that did not seem to belong in this world at all.

“…”

Leonard instantly realized that he might have touched upon some ancient secrets erased from history.

Then he thought of the recent situation in the Magical Beast Forest.

A thought emerged in his mind: the death of Emperor Lanlingster might have something to do with this.

…

Sophia Jones watched Leonard delving deep into his research and approached him, looking at the carvings, she asked, “What’s the matter?”

She had less knowledge of archaeology than Leonard and could not discern anything special.

Pointing at the Great Hand in the carving, Leonard spoke, “Aunt Jones, remember what I told you before? The Royal Academy sealed a mysterious Great Hand…”

Hearing this, Sophia also felt it was quite a coincidence, “Is that the same hand?”

“Most likely.”

Leonard nodded and added, “Moreover, I suspect this is not just any temple. It might be part of some massive Sealing operation. Look at these Magic Patterns, they point towards a Sealing Magic Pattern.”

Like a Six-pointed Star, a Nine-pointed Star Magic Array–the corners of the stars are the corners of the formation.

If, as Leonard speculated, this temple was a Formation Corner, then the scale of this Sealing operation was frighteningly large.

“Sealing?”

Sophia also fell into contemplation.

However, Leonard had only gleaned this much information.

With things that were beyond his grasp at first glance, pondering further bore no additional insight.

Before the pair could murmur further, suddenly not far away, “Blaster” Rosin began shouting hoarsely, “Leader, it’s bad! Captain Bonnie is poisoned!”

Everyone was startled.

If the Chief Nurse was poisoned, it was no minor matter.

Even Leonard thought something unexpected had happened and hurried over with Sophia.

However, before they got close, Bonnie, who had been lying on the ground, began to sit up, wobbling her head.

As she saw her companions looking at her with strange glances, she did not forget to quip, “Ah… Rosin, don’t make such a fuss. I’m not poisoned; I’m just drunk on poison.”

The group: “…”

Leonard couldn’t help but suppress his laughter.

Along the way, he had also learned about the Chief Nurse’s habits.

Bonnie was a Poison Master, who enjoyed consuming certain poisons and toxins regularly–partly to build resistance and partly, honestly, out of sheer craving.

Like an addiction to alcohol, once it becomes a habit, it’s addictive.

But when consumed in excess, one might suffer from an overload of toxicity, or “poison drunk.”

Seeing Bonnie lying by a water’s edge, Leonard figured she’d been intoxicated by the Plague Fruit.

And that was the case.

After waking, Bonnie looked at the fruit exuding a green air with skeleton heads, eyes glittering, she said excitedly, “Ah… Isn’t that fruit a bit too strong? I just sniffed it and got poison drunk?”

However, her tone bore no fear, only fervor and excitement, “Just this toxic air alone, the toxin’s tier must be above the Seventh Rank. If I could really collect it, even if I faced a Seventh-Order Card Master, one hit would have them dropping dead on the spot…”

“…”

The group felt a twitch at the corner of their eyes.

Bonnie’s expression also showed difficulty as she looked at Sophia, “Ah… Leader, I want to take this fruit with me, but I can’t contain it, what should I do?”

She couldn’t digest the fruit at her current tier and could only think of taking it back for slow research.

But the prerequisite was being able to take it.

Sophia tried to approach the fruit but quickly felt a burning sensation and then showed a helpless expression, “My Domain can’t endure this toxin for long…”

The toxin was too advanced in terms of its Law; even she could not withstand it, let alone use a standard Containment Card to bind that terrifying toxicity.

Not to mention that it was too dangerous to try.

Even if they really managed to forcefully contain it, should there be any leakage, it could spell disaster for the entire team.

Seeing Sophia helpless, Bonnie’s face puckered into a pitiful expression, “Ah?”

If their own leader had no method, then it indeed seemed hopeless.

Suddenly, she thought of something and looked over at Leonard, “Leonard, do you have any method?”

Leonard thought for a moment and rarely used an uncertain tone, “I’m not sure if it would work.”

But once Bonnie heard this, her dimmed face brightened immediately, “Ah? You have a way?”

Leonard did not say much and took out several golden Containment Cards.

He infused them with Curse Power, and a black vortex appeared on the cards.

Everyone’s gaze focused, and Bonnie curiously asked, “What kind of Containment Card is that?”

It was a card unlike any they had seen on the market, possessing a form of Law power they had never encountered before.
