Show me in the Constitution where it states that a State cannot secede.

Not Common Law rulings from a court, but actually in the Constitution, or even the US Code.

I’m not aware of any law or constitutional provision that a state cannot secede.

I was saying that there is no constitutional process to follow for a state to secede from the union. Meaning that the subject of secession is not addressed. I believe you are right that there is nothing said about secession in the constitution.
