My understanding is incredible: I gained enlightenment and immortality in the Kunlun Demon Kingdom

Chen Ze frowned, wondering to himself, "What should I do?" He hadn't expected to encounter such a formidable opponent.

Tian Siyao remained calm and composed, lightly waving her jade sword and silently chanting a refreshing incantation. A refreshing breeze immediately arose, forming an impenetrable wind wall in front of the astonished ghost.

"It's just a small trick." The Staring Ghost roared and used a fire blast to try to break through the wind wall.

Seeing this, Chen Ze immediately used the Five-Colored Pagoda to emit a dazzling light, which, together with Tian Siyao's Gentle Breeze Spell, successfully forced the Staring Ghost to retreat temporarily.

The two exchanged a glance, knowing tacitly that the struggle had only just begun.

Every movement, every glance, embodies the deep understanding between them.

"Chen Ze, are you ready?" Tian Siyao's voice revealed an unspoken confidence.

“Of course, I’ve been waiting for this moment.” Chen Ze gripped the Yin-Yang Mirror tightly, a resolute look on his face.

The two took a deep breath, preparing to engage in another fierce battle with the monstrous demon.

But whatever the outcome, they are confident that they can overcome all difficulties by relying on each other.

As soon as they stepped off the altar, Chen Ze and Tian Siyao almost immediately sensed a change in the atmosphere around them.

This is no longer the sacred and peaceful space it was just now, but a world that feels oppressive and cold.

Tian Siyao said with a grave expression, "We've been discovered."

As she expected, a monster suddenly appeared in front of them, as if it had emerged from the darkness.

The monster's eyes, like burning embers, stared at them as if it wanted to devour them both into the abyss of darkness.

Chen Ze gripped the Yin-Yang Mirror tightly in his hand; this magical artifact could identify supernatural phenomena such as ghosts.

He used it to examine the monster before him, confirming that it was indeed one of Kuiba's subordinates.

Because his body still retained the aura of the Kuiba.

"Are you ready?" Chen Ze gave Tian Siyao a serious look.

Tian Siyao nodded, and with a gentle wave of her hands, the jade sword flew into her hands.

The sword's blade was as transparent as crystal, emitting a faint blue light.

At the same time, Chen Ze also drew his Qingfeng Sword.

A soft white light then emanated from the sword, reflecting the brilliance of the jade sword.

“I’ll use the Qingfeng Sword to create an opening, and you prepare to launch an attack with the Biyu Sword.” Chen Ze and Tian Siyao reached a tacit understanding through their eyes.

"Understood," Tian Siyao replied earnestly.

Chen Ze swung his sword and thrust it forward. The white light of the Qingfeng Sword instantly pierced through the darkness and tore through the defenses in front of the monster's body.

At the same time, the Staring Demon also launched an attack on them.

At that moment, Tian Siyao swung her jade sword without hesitation, and a blue arc of light pierced the air, striking the monster hard.

The monster let out an angry roar, but did not fall.

Its body began to blur, as if it were preparing for some powerful counterattack.

"Be careful, it might have some strange moves," Tian Siyao said nervously.

"Yes, I know." Chen Ze's gaze sharpened, and all his muscles tensed, preparing to meet the impending attack.

The two stood closer and closer, as if in this dark and perilous environment, they were each other's only source of support.

Despite facing the unknown and danger, the two shared an inexplicable understanding and trust.

The air seemed to freeze. The monster from Kuiba finally moved, but Chen Ze and Tian Siyao were ready to respond. Their eyes met for a fleeting moment, as if all their strength and courage had coalesced in that instant.

At that moment, their heartbeats were almost synchronized; they knew that whatever happened next, they would face it together.

He sensed that the monster named "Kuiba" chasing him seemed to be able to pass through walls and was always behind them.

The streets were like a giant maze, leaving them unable to find their way out.

"Here, quick, turn here!" Tian Siyao's voice was filled with urgency. She gripped the jade sword tightly in her hand, the blade emitting a faint, eerie light as illumination and guidance.

Chen Ze followed Tian Siyao's advice, and the two walked through a narrow alley to an abandoned ancient temple.

This place is clearly quite old; the surrounding bluestone slabs look worn and slippery, but it is precisely this antiquity and mystery that gives people a sense of security.

"The monster is catching up, but the Staring Ghost has disappeared. What should we do?" Tian Siyao asked nervously, her tense aura like a bowstring about to snap.

In a moment of quick thinking, Chen Ze took out the Yin-Yang Mirror and observed the monster chasing after him through the lens.

In a flash, he discovered something delightful.

"There's a way, it has a weakness!" A glint of light flashed in Chen Ze's eyes.

Tian Siyao had a sudden inspiration and a bold idea came to her mind.

She took a deep breath, and then, with all her might, loudly recited the "Mind-Enlightening Mantra".

In that instant, the monster seemed to be affected by something; its body paused, and its expression showed a brief moment of confusion and bewilderment.

"Is this your weakness?" Chen Ze's lips curled up slightly. He knew this was the best chance to escape.

Seeing this, Tian Siyao quickly took out the Jade Disc and released a halo of light, enveloping the two of them to defend against possible counterattacks from the monster.

"Let's go!" Chen Ze urged.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the two broke through the monsters' encirclement and fled quickly along the other side of the ancient temple, disappearing into the night.

"Thank goodness, we're finally free from it for now." Tian Siyao breathed a sigh of relief, her expression shifting from tense to relaxed.

"Don't be too happy yet, we still need to find a safe place." Chen Ze replied nervously, then put away the Yin-Yang Mirror, his face full of vigilance.

Without summoning Flame Demons, they would have difficulty defeating the monsters.

It seems their strength still needs improvement.

Deep in the forest, the tangled trees and intricate paths form an almost insurmountable maze.

The night was as dark as ink, the stars twinkled, but this place seemed isolated from the world.

Chen Ze gripped the multicolored tower tightly. Whenever a monster approached, the tower would release a dazzling light, causing the evil spirits to back down.

"Are you alright?" Tian Siyao asked with a solemn expression. The jade sword in her hand trembled slightly, as if it could also sense the uneasy atmosphere around her.

"It can last for a while, but the Five-Colored Tower is consuming too much energy." Chen Ze looked tense, his eyes constantly scanning his surroundings warily.

Tian Siyao tightened her lips, took out a water whip from her pocket, and prepared herself.

"This can't go on. We need to find a solution. We can't rely entirely on the power of the Flame Demon."

Chen Ze nodded slightly, and suddenly, his Yin-Yang Mirror flashed with a light.

“There’s a small pond over there, let’s go over and rest for a bit.”

I can use the Yin-Yang Mirror to identify the ghostly phenomena around me and see if I can find a way to hide. (End of Chapter)
