“Stop marveling and come help me with this.” Qin Muye quickly found the mechanism to open the entrance.
“Don’t act so rashly. I suspect this iron gate and iron walls are part of the Yin Mountain Lord. If you do manage to split it open, we would need to skedaddle immediately.”
“Relax, I won’t screw you over.” Qin Muye pressed him down into a chair with lightning speed.
“Open up!!!”
“All right, professor, what shall we do next?” Zongsi came over and asked Qin Muye.
...
“Huff~ Huff~ Professor Li, we’ve succeeded.” Zongsi said, panting heavily.
“It looks like we’re in the Yin Mountain Lord’s control room,” Qin Muye said.
“Professor Li, can you open it?” Zongsi asked.
“Professor Li, step back a bit, I’m afraid I might injure you when the time comes.” Zongsi walked over and then warned him.
“Let’s not wait then, I’ll break through the door.” Hearing it would take some time, Zongsi naturally couldn’t wait and decided to take matters into his own hands.
“Wait a minute, I have to use some shadow skills to increase my power, otherwise, I can’t pull it open, and considering the situation, even if I unfasten the door bolt, I still won’t be able to open the door.”
“Are you sure? I always feel like it seems a bit unreliable.” Zongsi was a bit torn, instinctively feeling there was something off with this thing.
“Holy shit, it’s actually there. Professor Li, you’re freaking awesome.” At this moment, Zongsi couldn’t help but let out an expletive. He used to think this was a great treasure; now, he felt this person was like an ancestor.
“Really? The Yin Mountain Lord is that huge?” Zongsi was also shocked.
“Zongsi, go close the door properly, we’re going to seek revenge on the ancient shadow monster.”
“Zongsi is really powerful, managing to pry it open bare-handedly; so, how about you go in first?” Qin Muye suggested.
“Let’s go, let’s get in quickly.” Saying that, Zongsi drew his Wolf Head Blade from his waist and easily shattered the obstacle.
Immense strength burst forth, and the soil burying the door bolt underground loosened continuously from his pulling.
Well, it turns out, a shadow this capable of being a general is no ordinary one; he forcefully pried the iron door open, creating just enough space for one person to pass through.
There was no special mechanism; it was simply a huge door bolt buried underground…
However, the ground was soft, resembling flesh, and crisscrossed with thin, elongated pipes that appeared like blood vessels.
But now was not the time to dwell on these things; instead, they needed to quickly pull open this door bolt.
But this was just the beginning; it was only a door bolt after all, and there was still a door waiting for him to push open.
Of course, this was also because his shadow wasn’t primarily focused on power, which is why it was so difficult, a part of the problem being his own capability.
Zongsi, at that moment, stood beside him, initially intending to lend Qin Muye a hand. However, upon seeing Qin Muye land steadily, he decided not to help.
It was probably because the obstacle had been concealed before, so until now, no one had come by; they could be considered the first visitors.
Huang Yuanshan began to shake, and the surrounding earth quaked, as if a coiled giant was preparing to stand up.
Seeing this, Zongsi could only burst forth once again, clutching the door crack to pry it outward as the silvery white giant wolf solidified, an abrupt full moon emerged, and the giant wolf howled at the sky.
Upon seeing the door bolt, Zongsi was also shocked; he hadn’t expected it to be just the tip of the iceberg, only half a door was revealed, meaning the whole structure was rather large.
Overreached himself? No, no, no, as long as he found the ancient weapon named the Yin Mountain Lord, he would rise to great heights in a single bound.
Then they saw Qin Muye pull the skeleton off the chair and say, “Come on, sit on the golden throne, and you will be the Emperor of Sacred Terra!”
With just that, Zongsi was almost sent on his way.
“From this sound alone,” Muye Qin could almost see the veins bulging on the supervisor’s body, covered by the Shadow Equipment, a pity it was hidden from view. Otherwise, who knows, he might have made a perfect model for static vein thrombosis.
But then he realized Muye Qin was no longer beside him, but had hidden far away, not needing his reminder at all. To this, he could only sigh with a vein popping in frustration, realizing that Professor Li truly feared death.
However, the expected shattering of the iron gate did not occur. Instead, the blade’s light and the white wolf collided with the gate and instantly dispersed, causing his previously confident expression to falter—he had not anticipated this outcome.
Muye Qin pondered for a moment, “A conservative estimate would be about the size of that ancient Shadow Monster.”
Upon hearing this, Muye Qin slowly made his way in, then stepped into the void. Had his reflexes not been quick, he might have taken a nasty fall.
Muye Qin was currently just a powerless archivist, the kind of task naturally fell to the supervisor.

Muye Qin didn’t know what kind of Shadow Skills had been applied to him, but the originally streamlined Silver Wolf Shadow Suit now had a bit of a muscular look to it.
Muye Qin looked around, “It can be opened, but it’s a bit troublesome and will take some time.”
In his hand, the Wolf Teeth Blade emitted beams of light, and a silver-white giant wolf materialized, charging at the iron gate.
He was also quite excited at the moment. After all, Muye Qin rarely made mistakes; generally speaking, as long as he spoke up, they would find the relic. As for what they would find, that was uncertain since he knew Muye Qin was only human, not divine. It wasn’t something Muye Qin could ascertain whether the resources within the relic could be perfectly preserved.
And that’s exactly what he felt. If his calculations weren’t wrong, their approximate location would be around the chest area, or where the cockpit would be.
The weapon in his hand was part of the Shadow Equipment, and combined with Shadow Skills, even modern alloys could be slashed through, let alone the iron gate made with ancient and inferior smelting techniques.
He now suspected that this device might be a large Mecha. Don’t ask how it was made—when a system that can animate even shadows exists, why not an ancient Mecha?
The iron gate wasn’t heavy; the main issue was the soil since the lower half was buried. There was no time to dig it out, so they had to resort to brute force to pull it out along with the dirt.
The next moment, the pipe-like conduits began to wriggle, countless shadows started flowing into the chair, and the supervisor’s consciousness was abruptly withdrawn. A colossal existence awakened in an instant, and due to the surge of power, the supervisor ignored why Muye Qin was able to easily restrain him in the chair, a fact that defied logic.
A burrow concealed by various weeds and fallen rocks—had it not been for Muye Qin’s careful identification, even the supervisor might have missed it.
With a roar, a huge silver-white giant wolf emerged behind the supervisor, and he forcefully pulled the massive gate bolt upright, later shifting from pulling to lifting, to stand it completely erect.
Therefore, he hoped that the ancient weapon named Yin Mountain Lord within would be relatively intact.
Under Muye Qin’s guidance, the two quickly arrived at the location.
After delving deeper, they encountered an iron gate and walls forged from Black Iron. Considering the thickness, a significant amount of Iron Ore must have been consumed in its construction back in the day.
It looked like the other party had not had a light consumption.
This was at least about five meters tall.
This made the supervisor even more thrilled.
The obstructions seemed almost artificially placed. As the two entered the burrow, it was clear it was not a natural feature but a structure chiseled out by humans.
A normal burrow wouldn’t be so smooth, and some artifacts were even left behind, although they were now considerably old.
The recovering supervisor glanced at Muye Qin with a speechless look, “Professor, if you want me to lead the way, just say so. There’s no need to be so indirect about it.”
Muye Qin, who was figuring out how to open the door, couldn’t help but make a wry remark.
Yet the supervisor was puzzled—there was no control device to be seen, just a chair not far from there with a skeleton seated on it.
The supervisor was eager, hence his quick actions.
A light source emerged in the supervisor’s hand, brightening the pitch-black burrow for Muye Qin’s convenience; after all, in his eyes, Muye Qin was merely a Shadow who had just entered the Real Shadow phase, without even fully awakened his own shadow, lacking night-vision capabilities.
The supervisor swallowed hard, “This is simply too incredible.”
The supervisor was merely teasing, not daring to let Muye Qin take the lead. Instead, he went in first to investigate and then said, “Professor, come on in, it’s safe.”
The supervisor knew his Shadow was more adept at assassination than strength, and therefore he needed a BUFF. If it had been Qing Jiao, he might have been able to pull open the gate with his bare hands, but not the supervisor.
