Red Mansion: I relied on the AFK system to create a dynasty

The blurry figure mocked: "Do you think you can resist me like this?"

Cen Mingche responded calmly: "I know that power is not the purpose, but I will use it to protect the people I cherish."

He reached out to touch the banner and suddenly felt a huge surge of energy pouring into his body. His thinking became clearer and he was full of strength.He felt as if he had become a warrior.

"You can feel this power, but you still can't defeat me." The vague figure warned.

Cen Mingche steadied his breathing. He could feel that this power was indeed extraordinary, but he also knew that he must use this power with wisdom instead of being controlled by it.

He turned away from the banner and headed towards the unknown.He knows that his battle is far from over, but he has the confidence to face it all.His heart was filled with hope and determination for the future.

Cen Mingche embarked on the road to the unknown.He felt a mysterious guidance, as if some force was guiding him.After walking for a while, he suddenly saw an ancient temple with a bunch of simple iron chains hanging in front of the temple.

The symbols on the chain emitted a faint light, which seemed to be connected to the banner he had touched before.Cen Mingche stared at the chain. He felt a mysterious power coming from the chain. This power was both strange and familiar.

"This is the ghost chain, an ancient artifact that connects the living and the dead." The vague voice sounded again.

Cen Mingche's heart moved: "The connection between the living and the dead?"

"Yes, this artifact allows you to cross the boundary between life and death and communicate with ghosts." The blurry figure explained.

After thinking for a moment, Cen Mingche said: "I understand, I need this power to find my family."

The blurry figure mocked: "Even if you can cross the boundary between life and death, you may not be able to find them. They may not be themselves anymore."

Cen Mingche glared at Guilian, knowing that this was a bet. "I'm willing to try it, for my family."

He reached out and touched the ghost chain, and a powerful force surged into his body.He felt as if his body was integrated into this chain, the boundary between life and death became blurred, and his consciousness began to float, as if traveling through time and space.

"You can't go back." The vague figure warned.

Cen Mingche said firmly: "I will not stop. No matter what is ahead, I will move forward bravely."

His will merged with the ghost chain and he took a crucial step towards the unknown.

Cen Mingche felt that his body was no longer bound by physical space, and his consciousness was floating in the darkness of nothingness.There was no reference around him, as if he was in an endless abyss.

The vague human voice sounded again: "Welcome to the realm between life and death. Now, you can choose to go anywhere to find your family."

Cen Mingche felt an unprecedented freedom, but it was also followed by deep anxiety.He thought for a moment and said, "I need to know more, I need to find the right direction."

"You are very smart. You seek the truth instead of acting blindly." The vague figure praised, "You can look for those souls that have left the body but have not yet transcended."

Cen Mingche recalled his family as warm, kind souls, and he knew they would not voluntarily fall into the darkness.He decided to find them and protect them from malevolent forces.

He began to focus his thoughts on where his family might be.He thought of the home where they had spent time together, a warm place filled with memories.He chose to go there.

Suddenly, he felt a forward push, and his consciousness quickly traveled through space and came to that familiar home.

Cen Mingche looked around alertly, looking for anything strange.This illusory home was filled with a gloomy atmosphere, and the low humming from the corner made his heart tremble.

"Do you feel it? This place is full of shadows." The voice of a vague figure sounded in his ears.

Cen Mingche took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. "I will not be intimidated, I want to find my family."

The blurry figure chuckled: "Courage is commendable. But you must be mentally prepared. The next journey will not be easy."

Suddenly, a dark vortex burst out from the center of the room.Cen Mingche saw that this vortex seemed to lead to another dimension, full of unknowns.

"This is the entrance to the Land of Shadows. You can choose to travel through, but this may change everything about you." A vague human voice warned.

Cen Mingche thought for a moment again. He knew that this was the only way for him to find his family.He decided to take a chance.

"I will accept this challenge. I believe love can conquer everything." Cen Mingche replied firmly.

He stepped into the whirlpool, and an invisible force enveloped him, leading him into the unknown.He felt his body gradually disappear, leaving only his consciousness and mind.

In the land of shadows, Cen Mingche felt as if his body had turned into nothingness, and there was darkness all around. He could not see his hands, nor could he feel the ground under his feet.Only his consciousness and thinking remain clear.

The voice of a vague figure sounded again: "You have come to the land of shadows, which is the edge of darkness and light."

Cen Mingche asked: "How do I find my family?"

The vague figure responded: "You need to face your own fears and inner struggles to find the truth. This world is a reflection of your heart, and it will test your will and belief."

Cen Mingche's heart moved, thinking about the words of the blurry figure.All kinds of fears began to surface in his heart, past mistakes, lost time, guilt for his family, they became the scene of the Shadow Land.

The blurry figure continued: "You have to face this, accept it and let it go. Only then can you move forward."

Cen Mingche took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to face his inner demon.He saw his past self, lonely and confused. He saw the pain of losing his family and the regret of his own inability to do anything.

"I will no longer run away, I will bravely face my past." Cen Mingche said to himself.

Cen Mingche continued to move forward, feeling that the firmness and courage in his heart made the land of shadows brighter.In the darkness ahead, he vaguely saw a figure.

This figure seemed to be playing a flute tune, melodious and ethereal.Cen Mingche walked towards the flute music, feeling a strange attraction in his heart.As he approached, he saw an old but peaceful man holding an ancient long flute.

"Welcome to the Land of Shadows, brave man." The old man said with a smile.

Cen Mingche responded politely: "Hello, I am Cen Mingche. I am here to look for my family."

The old man nodded: "I know. The sound of the flute can understand people's hearts, and I have already sensed your mood."

Cen Mingche asked: "Do you know where they are?"
