The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 408
Chapter 408 Arriving at the Sea of Illusion
Dongfang Bingyun stretched out her hand and saw a glittering pearl in her palm. It was like a dream, extremely beautiful, causing one’s mind to be intoxicated.
“Could this be the Vast Ocean Pearl!” Li Qing was shocked, “You brought out all the treasures of Pearl City?”
‘”That’s right! I have long planned to go to the Sea of Illusions to search for my father’s body, so I have always carried this Vast Ocean Pearl with me. I just happened to meet you this time, so I came up with an idea to invite you to help me.”
“Since you have this pearl, you should be able to protect yourself in the outer region of the Sea of Illusion.” Li Qing nodded.
The Vastsea Pearl was a high-grade spirit artifact, and it was also a treasure of Pearl City.
The name of Pearl City, and the origin of the word “Pearl”, refers to the beautiful pearl in front of him.
The Vastsea Pearl was first held by Fairy Mingzhu nearly a thousand years ago. Back then, Fairy Mingzhu was also a famous expert in the Eastern Region and founded Pearl City. This pearl had been handed down from generation to generation, and it was used as a treasure to control the city.
This orb didn’t have any effect on attacking and killing enemies. Instead, it was a supplementary spirit artifact. This spirit artifact can shatter illusions, calm the mind, and nourish the soul. When cultivating, if you absorb this treasure into your sea of consciousness to nourish it, you don’t need to worry about going crazy.
In short, this was a soul-type treasure.
Soul-type treasures rarely appeared in the world, and any one of them was extremely precious. Although this pearl was only a high-grade spirit artifact, in terms of its preciousness, it was not inferior to a top-grade spirit artifact.
“You are truly bold enough to bring out the Sea of Destruction Pearl. If my heart is filled with greed and seize this Sea of Destruction Pearl, then your Pearl City will suffer a great loss.” Li Qing said.
“I’m quite accurate in judging people. You don’t seem to be such a despicable and dirty person. Besides, you have two Dao Artifacts in your hands, and there are countless treasures. How can you like a mere Vast Ocean Pearl like me?”
He had to admit that Dongfang Bingyun’s words were very reasonable. Li Qing was accustomed to seeing many treasures, and he didn’t find spirit artifacts attractive in his eyes. Although this item was very precious, it was not enough for him to do something shameful against morality.
It was like a wealthy man who didn’t feel much when he saw a piece of gold in front of him.
“How is it? With the Vastsea Pearl here, have you agreed to help me?” Dongfang Bingyun said.
“Alright, I’ll accept this matter!” Li Qing nodded.
“Sounds great!” Dongfang Bingyun revealed a delighted expression. “The deal is done. This Void Stone belongs to you now!”
Li Qing put away the Void Stone and said, “Let’s go, let’s set off now.”
“Wait, City Lord, if you enter the Sea of Illusion, what should we do about Pearl City?” The commander beside him said worriedly. Huan Hai was so dangerous, if he accidentally had something good or bad, what should he do?
Dongfang Bingyun said, “I will naturally arrange everything! You don’t need to worry.”
She took out a pen and paper, wrote some of her words, put them in a seal, and handed them to the commander, saying, “If anyone from Pearl City comes looking for me, you can give this letter to him! There are already my proper arrangements inside!”
After doing all of this, Dongfang Bingyun nodded towards Li Qing, indicating that he could set off. A cloud of Yin and Yang rose from beneath Li Qing’s feet and carried her into the sky.
…
The two of them flew all the way. After a period of time, Li Qing actually caught up with the Su Clan’s ship. He pressed down on the clouds, descended, and met with the Su Family. He also told himself that he was going to go to the deep sea next, so that they wouldn’t have to worry.
After chatting for a while, Li Qing brought Dongfang Bingyun back to the sky and headed towards the depths of the vast ocean.
Along the way, one would occasionally encounter one or two ships, or one or two islands, on which there were many humans. After all, they were still in the offshore area, so they could see a large number of islands.
Li Qing asked, “I heard that there are many humans living in the offshore area. I wonder what the situation is like.”
Dongfang Bingyun said: “In the offshore area, there are three islands with the largest area and the largest influence. They are respectively Luofu Island, Dongmen Island and Liubo Island. These three islands have a large number of humans and are prosperous. They are not much inferior to the inland islands.”
“Is it really this prosperous?” Li Qing said doubtfully, “I wonder how big these three islands are?”
“It’s comparable to a continent in the Eastern Region!”
“So big!” Li Qing was shocked. This was simply a small piece of land. The East China Sea was rich in resources, and with such a large continent as its foundation, no wonder it was so prosperous.
“Because there are countless demonic beasts in the East China Sea and beast tide often occurs, there are Dao Realm experts guarding all three islands! This is the only way to preserve one’s safety.”
“A Dao Realm expert! Looks like the power of the East China Sea isn’t weak either!” Li Qing was very surprised.
After flying for a whole day, Li Qing finally flew away from the offshore area and arrived at the ocean-going area.
Looking at the boundless sea, sparkling under the sunlight, Li Qing couldn’t help but sigh, “The sea is boundless. The great power of heaven and earth is really too vast.”
“The creation of heaven and earth gives rise to countless scenes. Each of them has its own unique characteristics.” Dongfang Bingyun’s gaze was indifferent. Obviously, he was used to the sight of the sea.
“I wonder which direction the Sea of Illusions is heading in?” Li Qing asked.
Dongfang Bingyun said, “If you want to go to the Illusory Sea, you can’t fly in a straight line. There are many dangerous places to avoid on the road. Go ahead and I will guide you along the way!”
In the following period of time, Li Qing flew across the ocean under the guidance of Dongfang Bingyun. Flying in the sea was very boring. Occasionally, one or two demonic beasts would jump up and attack them, but they would easily deal with them.
Sometimes, Li Qing could sense some terrifying aura hidden in the depths of the seabed. None of them was something Li Qing could contend against. Fortunately, they were skillfully avoided by Dongfang Bingyun.
“Be careful, don’t fly into the Dragon Sea. If you provoke a True Dragon, it will be dangerous!” Dongfang Bingyun pointed at the ocean in front of him.
“This is the Dragon Sea? This sea is now ruled by the four dragons, and humans are not allowed to step foot in it!” Li Qing couldn’t help but recall that the Ancient Dragon Court he had entered was once a branch of the East China Sea Dragon Clan.
“Rumor has it that there were eight dragons in the Ancient Era. Four of them went ashore and settled inland. They slowly died out. Only four of them were still alive in the East China Sea.”
“Living in the ocean is equivalent to living in seclusion. Only then can one survive. Heaven and earth are ruled by humans. No matter how powerful the individual strength of the dragons is, they still have to retreat.”
As the two of them talked, they avoided some dangerous waters as much as possible, and it was very smooth.
Dongfang Bingyun naturally had a lot of detailed information about the East China Sea. He knew where there was danger and where there was no danger. This was the foundation of Pearl City. She had already planned to come to the Illusory Sea, so she must have made sufficient preparations in this regard.
Under the guidance of Dongfang Bingyun, Li Qing flew all the way through many dangers and finally arrived at the Sea of Illusion.
“Not bad luck. I didn’t encounter any Void Realm demonic beasts. Your route is quite safe.” Li Qing sighed.
“The route I have guided is a relatively safe route that has been explored by countless generations of ancestors. Under normal circumstances, there will be no mistakes.” Dongfang Bingyun was rather proud. She was originally an iceberg beauty with a cold personality, but after getting along with Li Qing for a long time, she became more casual.
Li Qing could feel that Dongfang Bingyun was actually an ice-cold woman outside, but her heart was full of emotions. The coldness on the surface was just her protective color.
“Do you think there are many Void Realm demonic beasts in the sea?”
“Of course. The vast and boundless ocean is a world bigger than land. The number of demonic beasts living on the seabed is almost endless. The number of Void Realm demonic beasts born out of it is ten times more than you imagined. If you rely on your high level of martial power and dash forward recklessly, you will surely die a miserable death.”
“The deep sea region is indeed full of dangers. Don’t be careless in the future.” Li Qing was a little more cautious in his heart.
In front of him was the famous Sea of Illusions. Looking up, it was indeed a vast expanse of white mist, exactly the same as the rumors had it.
The white clouds on the surface of the sea filled the entire world. The azure color of the sea was submerged in this hazy white color.
“The rumors say that the Illusory Sea is no less dangerous than the Corpse God Burial Ground. I wonder if it is as terrifying as the rumors say.” Li Qing whispered to himself.
The two of them stopped outside the illusion and carefully observed this famous ocean.
Compared to the dangers of the Corpse God Burial Ground, the environment here seemed to be much more peaceful.
But this is only superficial.
Whether it was the white clouds that were everywhere on the surface of the sea or the seemingly calm sea below, there were tremendous risks lurking underneath.
The dangers in the Jedi were still on the surface, but the hidden dangers in the Sea of Illusions made people even more unable to guard against them.
Although Li Qing possessed divine sense, he could only explore a very limited area and didn’t dare to probe further. Once we go deeper. You get illusions.
The illusions here were much more terrifying than the illusion formations created by humans-this was the power of heaven and earth!
The power of heaven and earth was the strongest power in the world, and it could not be surpassed. For example, the Corpse God Burial Ground, the Middle Ancient Mysterious Heavenly Mountain, and so on. These were all products of heaven and earth’s natural luck.
The same was true of this sea of illusions in front of him. Even Dao Realm experts were unable to do anything to this sea.
The illusion here was not just an illusion, but a vivid illusion of the real and the real. Even though it was an illusion, if he really fell into it, it would be possible for him to turn it into reality, or vice versa.
The dangers and deaths in the illusion could become real at any time, so he couldn’t afford to take them lightly.
However, tremendous dangers were often accompanied by tremendous opportunities. Illusory beasts abound in the Sea of Illusions. There are also many materials related to illusions that are of high value, causing many experts to rush forward one after another.
