The authentication token for Google accounts and of other accounts which uses AccountManager class are stored inside:
/data/system/users/0/accounts.db # for Android Marshmallow and earlier
/data/system_ce/0/accounts_ce.db # for Android Nougat and above.
0 implies primary user of the device. If you have secondary user accounts, replace 0 with the user id of that account. To find out the user id follow my answer here.
Note that access to that database requires root access.
