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

A few minutes later, they successfully escaped the pawnshop and arrived on the streets of Dawn Town.

"What should we do now? We need to get to the Northern Clan as soon as possible," Tian Siyao asked, looking around.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Ze said, "We can borrow a ship to travel to the Northern Territory."

Qin Miyue raised her eyebrows: "You have a way to borrow a boat?"

Chen Ze smiled confidently: "That's right. I once saved a captain. Just find him and mention me."

The night in Dawn Town was quiet and cool, and Chen Ze was the only one left in front of the Royal Pawnshop.

He looked around to make sure no one was secretly watching him.

He gripped the jade pendant tightly, his thoughts in turmoil.

Chen Ze was well aware of the value of the five jade tablets, but he also understood the threat of power struggle that Qin Miyue mentioned.

He realized that if the jade pendant fell into the wrong hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although he was hesitant, Chen Ze knew he had to make a decision as soon as possible.

Standing in front of the Royal Pawnshop, Chen Ze struggled with how to use these mysterious jade tablets.

He knew he faced a dilemma: on the one hand, loyalty to his friends and a sense of justice compelled him to rescue his companions; on the other hand, there was the enormous risk of confronting a powerful force.

A heavy sense of responsibility left Chen Ze with no time to delay.

Finally, he found the answer in an abandoned ancestral hall on the outskirts of Dawn Town.

The eerie and terrifying atmosphere of the place highlighted Chen Ze's loneliness and determination at that moment.

Chen Ze decided to take action.

He knew he needed to find Elder Lin, someone strong enough to protect the jade tablets and his companions.

Chen Ze stood up and walked confidently toward the Royal Pawnshop.

After careful consideration, he chose to trust the information provided by Qin Miyue and planned to hand the jade tablet over to Elder Lin.

But he also knew it wouldn't be easy—he had to proceed with caution to avoid attracting unnecessary attention.

Chen Ze struggled internally about how to use the jade tablet in his hand.

He knew that these jade tablets were not only related to his own and his companions' fate, but could also affect the future power structure of the entire Northern Clan.

Finally, after thinking it over for a long time, Chen Ze felt that Qin Miyue had no reason to lie to him, and besides, they were already partners.

It's fair to say that we're practically all in the same boat now, sharing common interests, so there's really no need to lie to him.

After observing for a while, Chen Ze discovered a blind spot in the surveillance of the pawnshop.

He carefully bypassed the guards and quickly made his way through the dark alleyway.

His destination was an abandoned shrine on the edge of Dawn Town, a relatively quiet place with few people around.

When Chen Ze arrived at the ancestral hall.

A faint ray of moonlight pierced through the dark clouds and fell upon the dilapidated ancestral hall, creating a profound and mysterious atmosphere.

Chen Ze stepped into the ancestral hall, his heart pounding with tension.

He sensed the strange energy emanating from this place, as if an invisible force was watching him.

As Chen Ze entered the abandoned ancestral hall, a chill ran down his spine, causing him to shiver.

The dilapidated ancestral hall was dark and damp inside, filled with a strong musty smell of dust.

Huge stone pillars stood around him, as if guarding this long-dormant place.

He looked around, but found no trace of the old man Lin.

"Old man Lin, where are you?" Chen Ze called out softly.

However, only an echo responded to him.

Slightly disappointed, Chen Ze decided to wait here for Elder Lin to arrive.

So he found a corner to sit down and closed his eyes.

A moment later, a wisp of spiritual energy surged into his mind, and he stood up. Sensing the presence of that special energy, he knew he needed to remain calm and alert in such a situation.

Suddenly, a crack appeared on the wall that emitted a green light in the dim light.

The crack is surrounded by water stains left by a thousand years of drizzle, which are even more clearly visible in the shadows.

"This is the legendary water of immortality." Chen Ze was deeply shocked and immediately walked to the wall.

Chen Ze reached out his hand, but the crack closed instantly the moment his fingertips touched the wall.

At the same time, a mysterious voice echoed inside the ancestral hall.

"Young man, you have courage and wisdom."

Chen Ze immediately became alert and prepared to quickly move aside to avoid any danger.

"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm," the voice came again. "I am the tomb owner, this is my domain."

Chen Ze relaxed and faced the source of the sound.

"Master of the tomb, do you know where Elder Lin has gone?" Chen Ze asked respectfully.

"Old Man Lin..." The tomb owner pondered for a moment, "Since you were able to find this place, you must also want to get some answers from him."

“That’s right.” Chen Ze nodded. “The jade pendant has fortunately fallen into my hands.”

“I need to find Elder Lin and deliver this to him.”

After a moment of silence, the tomb owner said, "Meeting Elder Lin is no easy task; he is hidden in a forbidden area of ​​magic deep in the northern border."

"Your superb swordsmanship and wisdom may help you get into that place."

Chen Ze was taken aback upon hearing this, and was slightly surprised.

"Master of the tomb, how do I find the forbidden land of magic in the North?" Chen Ze was still somewhat puzzled.

The tomb owner said in a deep voice, "The Northern Spell Forbidden Zone is located beside the Lake of Souls east of Dawntown. You need to find a symbol to enter."

Chen Ze silently noted down this key information and thanked the tomb owner.

"Go," the tomb owner's voice faded into the distance, "Only when you truly encounter danger will you know how deep your potential is."

Chen Ze clutched the jade pendant tightly in his hand, then turned and left the ancestral hall.

He realized that the challenges he faced were becoming increasingly difficult.

But he was not afraid, because he had two reliable and powerful partners, Tian Siyao and Qin Miyue.

A thick fog enveloped the entire town of Dawn, exuding a mysterious aura in the silence.

With sound judgment, Chen Ze quickly located the hiding place of Tian Siyao and Qin Miyue.

"We are going to the forbidden land of magic in the North to find Elder Lin..." Chen Ze said with a solemn expression and a firm tone.

Tian Siyao opened her eyes wide and walked to Chen Ze's side. "This is a dangerous but crucial adventure."

"But as long as we work together, we will definitely succeed."

Qin Miyue nodded gently, "We've gone too far already. No matter how difficult or dangerous the road ahead may be, we can't turn back."

After saying that, they continued on their way.

They passed through the entrance to the secret room and entered a complex, labyrinthine corridor.

Ancient murals are inlaid on the walls, depicting the glorious history passed down through generations of Northern families.

In the candlelight, the intricate images shimmered faintly.

Chen Ze, Tian Siyao, and Qin Miyue carefully made their way through these corridors.

They remained vigilant at all times and cooperated with each other to prevent any sudden dangers.

Despite the somber and mysterious atmosphere in the air, the three of them continued to walk forward with determination.

Finally, they found the hidden chamber that Old Man Lin had mentioned. (End of Chapter)
