YEs, you can travel with the new passport. The PR card is not linked to your passport and your new passport will have the reference to your old passport.

Thank you very much for your reply, so once I come back to the country with my new passport, at that moment the system will link my new passport with my PR card?

PR card and passport are never linked.
