The group followed the bright lines on the ground and began to move towards the center of the island. As they went deeper into the island, the surrounding architectural styles became clearer.

“These murals…” She pointed to a huge mural and said, “They seem to be telling the history of the rise of the ancient kingdom and the formation of the world government. The content recorded here is more complete than any material I have seen before!”

Silva was also attracted by some runes, and stopped to interpret them from time to time: “This mentions the history before the ‘Age of Nothingness’, and records a war that changed the fate of the world…”

“There’s no time to look closely now,” Sabo warned, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly, “Don’t forget that Aokiji and the navy may still be chasing us.”

Ace nodded in agreement: “Sabo is right. We should reach the Central Temple first and find the historical text before studying these details.”

As they continued to move forward, they felt the bells become clearer and clearer, and the guiding lines became brighter and brighter.

On the way, they encountered several tests of the protection system – floating crystals launched energy beams to intercept, the ground suddenly sank to form a maze, and even ancient mechanisms released mysterious gases to confuse their senses.

But every time there was a crisis, the Dawn Blade would automatically respond, either emitting a light of a specific frequency or guiding the correct path, helping everyone to escape danger again and again.

“The Dawn Blade is not only a key, but also the control core of the entire Moonlight Island,” Silva exclaimed, “It has a deep connection with the island’s system.”

After passing through a long staircase, everyone finally arrived at the entrance of the central temple. This temple was far more magnificent than it looked from a distance – a perfectly circular structure standing at the highest point of the island, made entirely of some unknown white crystal, reflecting a soft silver light. In front of the temple was a huge circular stone door with a complex emblem engraved in the center, which was strikingly similar to the pattern on the Dawn Blade.

On either side of the stone gate stood a huge guardian statue, the image was blurry and hard to discern, but it gave people a sense of majesty and antiquity. A strange energy permeated the air around the temple.

The sound of the bell became clearer here, as if it was ringing right next to my ears, and every time the bell rang, the ground shook slightly. Lin Ye held the Dawn Blade tightly and walked towards the huge stone door. When the blade and the emblem on the door were about one meter apart, the two emitted a resonant light at the same time.

“It seems that this is the final entrance,” Lin Ye took a deep breath, “The main text of history is inside.”

Robin’s eyes sparkled with tears of excitement: “After decades of searching, the answer is finally revealed…”

Silva said solemnly: “The Dawn Blade has recognized you as the opener. Lin Ye, place the knife in the center of the emblem on the door, and we can enter the temple.”

Lin Ye nodded, stepped forward, and aimed the Dawn Blade at the emblem in the center of the stone gate. Just as the tip of the blade was about to touch the emblem, a piercing chill suddenly struck from behind.

“Ice Age.” A low and calm voice sounded behind everyone.

Ace and Sabo turned around almost instinctively and stood in front of Lin Ye and Robin.

On the distant stairs, Aokiji was walking slowly, followed by a team of elite naval soldiers.

“I’m sorry to interrupt your exploration,” Aokiji said slowly, “but the content of the historical text is probably not something you can know.”

After leaving the area guarded by the stone statues, everyone continued to move forward along the guiding lines that lit up on the ground. The road leading to the central temple was not straight, but it climbed up along the terrain of the island in a winding way, as if intentionally guiding visitors to appreciate every landscape on Moonlight Island.

On both sides of the road are ancient buildings that are nearly intact. They surround the central temple in the form of concentric circles, extending upward layer by layer. These buildings have unique styles, with dome-shaped towers, semi-elliptical halls, and spiral observation platforms. All buildings are made of the same white stone, with blue energy lines inlaid on the surface.

“This is incredible!” Robin exclaimed, stopping to observe every detail. “These buildings are so well preserved that it’s as if they were built yesterday.”

Silva nodded and explained, “Moonlight Island is within a special energy barrier, and time passes more slowly here. In addition, the building materials on the island have self-repairing properties and can withstand thousands of years of weathering.”

“What is this circular building?” Lin Ye asked, pointing to a particularly elegant hall on the side of the road. The hall was semi-open, with circles of stepped seats inside and a circular platform in the center.

“The Academic Exchange Hall,” Silva said with respect, “Scholars from the Ancient Kingdom and Sky Island often gathered here to discuss their discoveries and theories. This was once a place where the wisdom of the two great civilizations met.”

Sabo stopped in front of a wall covered with complex formulas: “These are… mathematical formulas?”

“It’s not just math,” Silva said, examining the symbols. “It’s a fundamental theory that describes the composition of the world, a synthesis of math, physics, and philosophy. The ancient kingdoms understood the laws of the universe far better than we do today.”

Ace was attracted by a small building on the other side, where a series of seemingly simple but ingenious devices were placed: “What are these? They look like some kind of instruments.”

“Observational tools,” Silva explained, “are used to study the movement of stars and climate change. The ancient kingdoms and the Sky Island civilization both attached great importance to astronomy, believing that the laws of the heavens could guide human wisdom.”

As they continued to move forward and climb, their vision gradually widened. When they climbed to a higher platform, they had a panoramic view of the magnificent scenery of the entire Moonlight Island. From this height, the layout of the island was a geometric pattern, forming a grand symbol as a whole.

“How beautiful…” Robin exclaimed, quickly sketching out the spectacular scene in his notebook. “The whole island itself is a work of art.”

Silva pointed to an area in the distance: “That used to be the craftsman’s area. The craftsmen of Birka and the craftsmen of the ancient kingdom worked together to create many miraculous devices. It is said that the ‘Dawn Blade’ was forged there.”
