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

"Wait," Tian Siyao suddenly interrupted him, her posture holding the jade sword slightly changing, appearing even more alert, "Did you hear the sound coming from over there?"

Chen Ze and Flame Demon turned their heads at the same time, looking in the direction from which the sound came.

Chen Ze took a deep breath and adjusted his state of mind.

He knew that more unknowns and challenges might await them.

But he also understood that with the help of these gems and the Flame Demon, their actions would be much easier.

The two walked toward the direction from which the sound came, each step filled with uncertainty, but their hearts were filled with determination and conviction.

Holding the Yin-Yang Mirror, Chen Ze peered through the thick fog, seeing that every inch of the palace was tainted by this eerie mist.

The mist seemed to possess a life of its own, flowing silently between the stone pillars and beneath the murals, carrying a hint of foreboding.

"Is this mist poisonous?" Tian Siyao gripped the jade sword tightly, the tip of the sword lightly touching the mist, then quickly retracting as if electrocuted.

"It's not poison, but something produced by ghosts."

"This fog is no small matter; we must deal with it carefully," Chen Ze said solemnly. He put the Yin-Yang Mirror into his sleeve and used the Five-Colored Pagoda to repel the surrounding fog.

Hearing Chen Ze's words, Tian Siyao was somewhat puzzled.

"Ghosts? What kind of powerful spirit could do that?" Tian Siyao felt extremely uneasy. She began to chant the Mind-Clearing Mantra, intending to purify the evil aura around her.

Chen Ze frowned in thought. Suddenly, his multicolored tower trembled slightly, as if it had sensed something.

The Flame Demon inside the tower hinted to him that the demons here were quite powerful.

"We need to find the source of this fog."

"If it continues to spread, the entire palace will become a paradise for ghosts." Chen Ze picked up the Five-Colored Pagoda, and its light instantly pushed back the surrounding mist, revealing a narrow passage.

“Then there’s no time to waste.” Tian Siyao nodded, holding her jade sword, and followed closely behind.

The two walked through a narrow passage, where the fog gradually thickened, making each step feel like entering the gates of hell.

But unlike the usual ghostly realms, the mist here is more like a complex mixture of emotions, carrying sorrow, anger, and deep malice.

"Watch out, there's movement ahead." Chen Ze's expression was solemn; he sensed a strong ghostly aura approaching.

Tian Siyao gripped her jade sword tightly, ready to fight.

At this moment, the mist suddenly gathered and transformed into a blurry human figure. The figure's outline changed from time to time, as if it had the ability to transform.

Chen Ze immediately understood that this was the ghost that caused the fog. He summoned the Five-Colored Tower, and a beam of light shone out from the tower, directly rushing towards the blurry figure.

The figure clearly sensed the threat and retreated rapidly, letting out a venomous scream.

However, at that moment, the Flame Demon flew out from the Five-Colored Tower, transforming into a flame that surrounded the figure.

"Now's the time!" Chen Ze shouted.

Tian Siyao immediately understood and chanted the Gentle Breeze Incantation. A gentle breeze arose, dispelling the surrounding mist and temporarily obstructing the view of the figure.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Ze raised the Five-Colored Tower high, and the powerful light shone on the figure, making it unable to maintain its original form.

Chen Ze gripped the multicolored pagoda tightly in his hand, feeling the oppressive force surging from the mist pressing down on his chest like a boulder.

He could vaguely sense a huge dark shadow approaching.

"Chen Ze, can you feel it?" Tian Siyao looked nervous, the jade sword in her hand emitting a faint glow, which reflected on her face like a cold moonlight.

"I can feel it. Get ready, it's coming." Chen Ze's tone was serious.

Almost instantly after he finished speaking, the enormous black shadow finally emerged from the mist, like a giant lynx, and pounced on them. Chen Ze hurriedly activated the Five-Colored Pagoda, which instantly released a dazzling light, like a rainbow bridge, in an attempt to block the unknown creature.

"Flame Demon, where are you?" Chen Ze's heart tightened. He felt that the Flame Demon inside the Five-Colored Tower was unmoved.

"What's wrong with you, Flame Demon!" he called out in his heart to the being that had always been his helper, but received no response.

Tian Siyao nervously bit her lower lip and began chanting the Mind-Clearing Mantra, intending to purify the unknown dark shadow.

However, the shadowy figure seemed unaffected by the spell and continued to approach them.

Just as Chen Ze thought he was about to withstand the attack, a fierce flame suddenly erupted from inside the Five-Colored Tower, and the Flame Demon finally appeared.

The Flame Demon seemed to be the embodiment of flames and black smoke; its appearance immediately triggered a violent temperature fluctuation.

Flames and black smoke intertwined, like a giant fire dragon, crashing into the unknown black shadow.

"You've finally shown up. What's wrong with you? Why did you only show up so late?" Chen Ze's doubts were dispelled by the light and heat of that moment.

The Flame Demon did not answer, but his actions were clear enough.

The fire dragon and the shadowy figure collided violently, producing a deafening roar, as if two immense forces were engaged in a final showdown.

It is so small.

"Such powerful strength!" Tian Siyao exclaimed, her jade sword now displaying...

Finally, the dark figure was repelled by the Flame Demon's fire dragon, as if swallowed by a sea of ​​fire, and disappeared into the mist.

"Thank you, Flame Demon." Chen Ze secretly breathed a sigh of relief; this time, they had escaped a calamity.

But the doubts in his heart remained unresolved: why did the Flame Demon appear so late? All of this made him uneasy, but for now, he could only suppress these doubts in his heart for the time being.

Chen Ze's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he gripped the colorful pagoda tightly in his hand. His eyes were firm, but he knew in his heart that the current situation was not optimistic.

Suddenly, the heavy doors of the palace opened gently, and a woman slowly walked in.

She wore a flowing blue dress, her long hair cascaded down her back, and a jade sword hung from her shoulder.

Her appearance was like a refreshing breeze in the sweltering summer, bringing a sense of comfort.

"Chen Ze, hello, my name is Tian Siyao."

"I heard you've run into some trouble, and I hope I can help you," she said with a smile, taking out some Qingling herbs.

"That's great, we urgently need treatment." Chen Ze stepped forward and shook hands with "Tian Siyao," feeling a warm current flow from Tian Siyao's palm into his heart.

He had absolutely no barriers between himself and women.

Chen Ze's subconscious action stunned the real Tian Siyao beside him!
She soon realized it too.

This "Tian Siyao" looks exactly like me.

"She comes from the Tower of Five Colors, is she a copy of me?"

Chen Ze nodded and said, "It should be."

Tian Siyao didn't say much, nor did she introduce herself.

She walked up to Chen Ze and gently summoned the Jade Plate.

Tian Siyao looked astonished. "My... Jade Disc is actually in her hands!"

Chen Ze explained, "She was originally you, so it's not surprising that she has the same things as you." (End of Chapter)
