Journey to the North

For the children's poetry book, see The Great Migration: Journey to the North.

Journey to the North (zh:北遊記) is a 1602 Chinese shenmo novel by Yu Xiangdou (Chinese: 余象斗) composed of 24 chapters. The protagonist is the god Zhenwu. The book centers on the re-births of Zhen Wu, who is the Perfected Warrior, who taught the immortal Zhang Sanfeng the art of Taijiquan.

Soon after the publication of Journey to the North, Yu Xiangdou published Journey to the South. Later, these two novels were combined with Wu Yuantai's Journey to the East and Yang Zhihe's abridged Journey to the West to be republished as Four Journeys.
