Chen Xuan, along with Bai Li, Zhan Xin, and Gu Yingying, sped away from the secluded valley and headed towards the hidden location of the Enlightenment Tree.

Throughout the journey, Chen Xuan held the jade slip given to him by Lin Yuqiong tightly in his hand, his gaze sweeping over it from time to time to confirm the direction he was heading.

"Based on my understanding of sect oaths, a super power like Qilin City must have extremely strict measures to prevent the leakage of various secret inheritances." Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling the scene of forcing Lin Yuqiong to hand over the information that day.

At that time, Lin Yuqiong did not suffer the backlash of Heaven and be eliminated after handing over the intelligence.

A meaningful smile slowly appeared on Chen Xuan's lips as he pondered to himself, "This means that the exact location of the Enlightenment Tree is not as recorded on the jade slip... but the fact that he did not suffer from the backlash of the oath indicates that the Enlightenment Tree should be in this area."

Although the oath of Heaven is strict, there are many ways to circumvent it.

For example, Lin Yuqiong wanted to share the core intelligence recorded in Qilin City, but she was bound by an oath and could not directly hand over the intelligence of Qilin City to Chen Xuan in its entirety.

In this situation, he can use a method that does not directly specify the location, but instead tells him the nearby location.

In this way, the oath binding Qilin City will not be triggered, and the negotiation and deal with Chen Xuan can be completed.

Of course, this method of avoidance also has limitations. If Chen Xuan had drafted a more stringent and flawless oath, this situation would not have occurred.

"According to intelligence records, even just sitting within a hundred miles of the Enlightenment Tree can lead to a profound state of enlightenment."

"If I could obtain a leaf from the Enlightenment Tree and keep it with me at all times, I could better align myself with the mysteries of the Dao and enhance my understanding." Chen Xuan carefully examined the description and records of the Enlightenment Tree by the Lin Yuqiong family, and a picture involuntarily appeared in his mind as he imagined it.

"If we could dig up the whole tree and plant it in the Qushan Zelin Sea, it would surely bring endless benefits to the descendants of Longxia." Thinking of this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile.

However, this thought only flashed through his mind. He knew better than anyone else that if this precious tree could be moved so easily, the ancient divine beasts, the Ten Fiends, and other powerful ancient races would have moved it long ago.

Because the four of them had been in seclusion for nearly a month, they dared not stop their journey to the Enlightenment Tree and traveled day and night.

The journey of over a million miles would take Chen Xuan and his companions a considerable amount of time, even with their high levels of cultivation.

Fortunately, the journey traversed most of the secret realm continent, and the amazing landscapes of various regions along the way were breathtaking, allowing them to feast their eyes while traveling.

Three days later, Chen Xuan and his group were still 200,000 li away from the area where the Enlightenment Tree was located.

Despite three consecutive days of high-intensity, rapid flight, Chen Xuan was still able to maintain ample combat power thanks to his profound foundation and the vast, boundless Purple Mansion Sea.

But Zhanxin and Gu Yingying were finding it hard to keep up.

Left with no other choice, the group had to stop temporarily when they were 200,000 miles from their destination and prepare to eat some food to replenish their strength.

Bai Li had been diligently cultivating on Chen Xuan's wrist the whole way. As soon as she landed, she ran off to prepare delicious dishes for everyone.

This half of the continent is completely different from the other areas. Upon entering this place, countless piles of almost decaying bones come into view, everywhere you look.

Gu Yingying explained that these enormous skeletons were left behind by true blood demons who were killed by powerful beings such as celestial immortals and true immortals during the ancient war between immortals and demons.

"Oh?" Chen Xuan sipped the spirit wine while looking at Gu Yingying, who was kneeling quietly. Zhan Xin also silently moved closer to listen to this little-known secret.
