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

As she uttered the incantation, a rumbling sound came from underground.

A huge stone slab slowly slid apart, revealing a secret passage leading underground.

The whole scene thrilled Tian Siyao, and she led everyone into this mysterious underground chamber.

The room was dark and ancient, with a faint floral fragrance in the air.

Tian Siyao looked around. The walls were covered with ancient characters and patterns, which were exactly the kind of patterns she was good at interpreting.

“These patterns are all different in shape, but they all have similarities. They represent ancient secret arts and mysterious powers,” Tian Siyao said with great curiosity.

Qin Miyue cautiously offered a reminder and then reinforced the protective barrier.

As Tian Siyao continued to observe the wall, a peculiar symbol suddenly caught her attention.

She stared intently at it, observing every detail as meticulously as possible.

Finally, Tian Siyao noticed that there seemed to be a hidden mechanism on the symbol. She carefully pressed the hidden button, and instantly, the entire secret room began to shake.

A massive door slowly opened, revealing an even more mysterious and ancient scene.

The group gazed excitedly at the scene before them, preparing to embark on a new journey.

After venturing deep into the underground chamber, Tian Siyao, Qin Miyue, and Chen Ze arrived at a huge and dark cave—"Star Cave".

The cave interior emitted a faint but mysterious light, shimmering like countless stars.

On the cave ceiling, scattered points of light seemed to be embedded throughout the entire cave ceiling.

The group stood quietly at the entrance, in the center of this star cave.

"There seems to be a force guiding us here," Qin Miyue said, gazing at a faint light within the cave.

Tian Siyao's eyes were fixed on the center, and she noticed that a huge box had caught her attention.

The box is made of rare metals and is engraved with ancient characters and patterns.

She could feel the powerful energy emanating from the box.

Qin Miyue smiled and walked towards the box in the center.

"This box, which connects the past and present and links heaven and earth, may be the key to our progress."

Tian Siyao walked to Qin Miyue's side and reached out to explore the patterns on the surface of the box.

"These ancient characters and patterns seem to contain some kind of code."

"If we can unravel their secrets, we might be able to obtain important clues about Kasumi-ji Temple."

Tian Siyao turned to Qin Miyue, "Qin Miyue, can you use light?"

"This way we can see the star pattern on the ceiling clearly."

Qin Miyue nodded, raised her staff, and released a faint light. "Please follow me closely, everyone watch your step."

The group followed Qin Miyue slowly forward, the flashing light guiding them deeper into the Star Cave. They stood quietly in the center of the cave, gazing at the enormous box before them.

This box is made of rare metals and is engraved with mysterious ancient characters and patterns, radiating powerful energy fluctuations.

Tian Siyao stared at the box. "The Iron-Blooded King once mentioned a container called the 'Box of Destiny'."

"It is said to contain a major secret that could influence the course of history."

“Perhaps this box is the ‘Box of Destiny’!” she said.

Finally, they arrived at the box.

Tian Siyao stared at the box.

She began to run her fingers along the patterns on the design, intently searching for the correct answer.

Gradually, subtle changes appeared on the pattern under her fingers.

"I found it!" Tian Siyao exclaimed excitedly, "I cracked the code!"

Chen Ze heightened his vigilance. "Watch out!"

As Tian Siyao touched the last line of the seal, the box began to slowly open.

A powerful energy emanated from it, instantly making the cave exceptionally dazzling.

Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the opened box.

They knew that it might contain some important secrets that would change their destiny.

Tian Siyao was intently observing the inside of the box.

As the box slowly opened, an ancient aura immediately filled the cave.

A dark red light emanated from the box, illuminating everyone's faces like a sacred and solemn halo.

Tian Siyao couldn't help but excitedly grab the edge of the box and stare at its contents.

She saw an ancient parchment scroll carefully placed inside.

The scroll's surface was covered with exquisite and intricate runes and incantations, shimmering with a mesmerizing light under the bright lamp.

"This is the legendary masterpiece 'The Mandate of Heaven' by the Iron-Blooded King!" Tian Siyao exclaimed excitedly.

Chen Ze gripped the sword hilt tightly, his eyes fixed on the parchment scroll.

"Be careful, this box might be a trap set to protect the parchment scroll." After touching the "Destiny Chapter," Tian Siyao felt a strong vibration coming from the parchment scroll.

It was as if some mysterious connection was constantly intertwined with her soul.

She loosened her grip slightly, a sense of unease rising within her.

Chen Ze and Qin Miyue looked at Tian Siyao and noticed the change in her heart.

Chen Ze scanned his surroundings, cautiously looking around to ensure his safety. "Tian Siyao, what's wrong? Do you have any feelings or premonitions?"

Tian Siyao sighed and replied softly, "I don't know. I just feel that there seems to be some inexplicable connection with this parchment scroll."

"I worry that I won't be able to handle the power it contains."

Qin Miyue gathered her most powerful energy to protect Tian Siyao from any potential negative effects.

"If there is any connection, we will stay by your side until things are resolved."

Tian Siyao paced back and forth anxiously.

She remembered that Guiyue had once told her about the legend of the Iron-Blooded King.

Previously, Tian Siyao only regarded this as an opportunity to seek adventure and solve puzzles.

But now that she has felt the power of the "Destiny Chapter," she has become curious about the historical truth hidden within it.

"This parchment scroll must be studied carefully."

Tian Siyao suddenly stopped and said, "I think we should investigate the truth behind the death of the Iron-Blooded King in the 'Destiny Chapter'."

Chen Ze nodded. "Do you have any specific suggestions?"

After thinking for a while, Tian Siyao said, "We can first check other documents, historical sites, or items related to the Iron Blood King."

"Perhaps those could provide more clues about his life."

Qin Miyue interjected, "We should also look for other scholars and experts who have in-depth knowledge of history."

"They might be able to help us decipher the runes and spells on the parchment scrolls."

Chen Ze said with a serious expression, "We must try our best to keep it from others knowing that we are researching the 'Destiny Chapter'."

"This is news involving enormous power."

"We cannot entrust the decision of how to handle this matter to those who harbor ill intentions." (End of Chapter)
