The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 412
Chapter 412 Fang Zhangxian Mountain
“Very likely!” Li Qing nodded. The center of the vortex was dark. Any substance that was sucked in would disappear without a trace. It should be a spatial passageway.
“No matter what, we’re finally safe. We don’t have to endure the impact of the Mirage Sea Tide and the maelstrom.” Dongfang Bingyun said.
Just now, their situation was really very dangerous. Not to mention the terrifying power of the maelstrom, they were unable to cope with just the Mirage of the Illusory Sea. Even if they possessed the Vast Ocean Pearl, it would still be very difficult for them to do so.
Now that the vortex had teleported them here, it could be said that it had indirectly saved them.
Li Qing smiled bitterly and said, “But we are probably already in the deepest part of the Illusory Sea. It will be very difficult for us to get out.”
The two of them opened their eyes and saw countless illusions faintly appearing in the layers of mist, forming separate illusion spaces that overlapped one another, causing them to feel a chill run down their spines.
This was a scene that only appeared in the depths of the Illusory Sea
“What should we do now? If we fall into the depths of the Illusory Sea, we’ll have to rely on our luck to get out.” Dongfang Bingyun wore a bitter expression.
Entering the depths of the Illusory Sea was not necessarily a situation where death was inevitable. If one was lucky, they could still successfully leave. However, the chances of this happening were extremely low.
“This trip to the Illusory Sea is really not going well. I originally thought that there was no danger to my life, so I agreed. I didn’t expect that I would end up in such a situation.” Li Qing secretly muttered in his heart, “Let’s go. It’s useless to wait here. We still have the Vast Ocean Pearl. We should be able to shatter all illusions. If we were more careful, there shouldn’t be any problem.”
Dongfang Bingyun nodded and took out the Vast Ocean Pearl, releasing waves of clear light to expel the surrounding illusion fog. The two carefully avoided the dense fog and searched the depths of the Sea of Illusion.
After passing through the dense fog, they had only just walked for a short time when a new scene appeared in front of them.
As the clouds and mist shrouded the area, a gigantic Immortal Island Mystic Mountain revealed its figure. It was an extremely regular square island. There were immortal mountains on the island, and there were all sorts of spiritual herbs and flowers everywhere. Flying springs and flowing waterfalls seemed like a paradise in the mortal world.
Spiritual herbs that were extremely rare in the outside world could be seen everywhere like weeds, covering the entire island. There were clear jade springs in the mountains, gurgling water that nourished the fertile soil here.
“These are the three great immortal mountains of the Illusory Sea!” Seeing this scene in front of them, their voices trembled.
“It’s really the Immortal Mountain. It’s developed this time! I didn’t expect that we would be teleported to the vicinity of the Immortal Mountain. Our luck is really good!” Dongfang Bingyun was very excited.
“Which immortal mountain is this?”
“Judging from its appearance, it should be the Abbot Immortal Mountain!”
Both of them were ecstatic. Being able to encounter an Immortal Mountain meant a great opportunity. It was the best Spiritual Mountain in the world.
“Both good and bad depend on each other. The ancients did not deceive me. Let’s go, let’s hurry up!” Dongfang Bingyun said.
“Wait, be careful. It’s hard to tell whether it’s real or fake in the sea of illusions. It might be an illusion!” Li Qing reminded.
“Your reminder makes sense. It’s me, Meng Lang.” Dongfang Bingyun immediately came to his senses.
The two of them carefully approached the Abbot Immortal Mountain. The power of the Vast Ocean Pearl protected them from the illusion. When the clear light shone on the mountain, the Immortal Mountain did not disappear. This meant that this was not an illusion.
“Sure enough, Immortal Mountain is real. There shouldn’t be any problems this time. Let’s go up!” They revealed expressions of delight.
The two of them immediately moved and smoothly climbed the Abbot Immortal Mountain.
The mountain is a regular square with a rather peculiar shape. Countless peculiar peaks stood on the mountain, surrounded by white clouds and mist.
“Above the Abbot Immortal Mountain, there are also tremendous dangers. We cannot let down our guard.” Dongfang Bingyun said.
In the periphery of Immortal Mountain, it could be considered relatively safe. There were many precious spirit medicines here, and after picking them, they could be considered as returning with full load.
If he wasn’t satisfied and wanted to enter the core of the Immortal Mountain, he would have to take a huge risk.
The dangers above the Immortal Mountain were even more terrifying than the Illusory Sea. After all, the Immortal Mountain was the core of the Illusory Sea, and the dangers here could be called the greatest of the Illusory Sea.
“There are many spiritual medicines around. Let’s pick them first.” Li Qing said.
Even in the periphery, the amount of spiritual herbs was not small, and all of them were extremely rare. Many of the spiritual herbs had already disappeared outside, but they still grew in the Abbot Immortal Mountain.
The two of them began to fight, spending most of the day picking all the mature spiritual herbs from the periphery.
“So many spirit medicines, their value is simply inestimable.” Dongfang Bingyun said.
“Especially since there are some spirit medicines that have already disappeared from the outside world. One of them is hard to find in this world.”
“Should we go deeper into the Immortal Mountain?” Dongfang Bingyun said. To be able to harvest so many rare spirit medicines was already considered to be returning with full load. Do you still have to take a huge risk to enter the depths of the Immortal Mountain?
Li Qing took a deep breath and said, “The three great Immortal Mountains of the Illusory Sea each have something shocking. There are supreme Immortal Fruits in the Penglai Immortal Mountain, Immortal Springs in the Yingzhou Immortal Mountain, and supreme Immortal Gold in the Fangzhang Immortal Mountain. It would be a bit regrettable for us to leave without even seeing the shadow of Immortal Gold.”
“So you decided to go deeper? Since that’s the case, I’ll accompany you.”
The two of them decided to discuss, and then began to step deeper into the depths of the place.
The peak of the Abbot Immortal Mountain was where the spiritual energy of the entire Immortal Mountain gathered. The boundless Spiritual Qi descended from the top of the mountain, piercing straight into the belly of the mountain, like an axis, driving the Immortal Mountain to circulate.
Their target was the summit of the mountain!
After walking inside for a while, they encountered a thick white mist in front of them.
“I feel danger from this fog. It should be an illusion. Watch me use the Vast Ocean Pearl to disperse it and open up a path.”
Dongfang Bingyun raised the Vast Ocean Pearl and emitted a clear light, illuminating the white mist.
In the end, something shocking happened to them. The Vast Ocean Pearl, which had been repeatedly tried and tested before, had actually lost its effectiveness this time.
Actually, it couldn’t be said to be a failure, but a failure of strength. Although the Vastsea Pearl could disperse a portion of the white mist, more mist quickly surged in from behind. The speed at which it dispersed was simply not fast enough.
“This illusion came from the Abbot Immortal Mountain. The heavens and earth were created by natural luck. It is normal for the Vast Ocean Pearl to not work.” Li Qing said.
“Then what should we do?” Dongfang Bingyun said.
“We can only force our way through! Even if there is danger inside, we should be able to withdraw in time.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you!” Dongfang Bingyun nodded.
The two of them immediately stepped into the white mist.
As soon as they entered, they felt as if they were immersed in water. As waves of light shook, their senses gradually lost their function, their ears unable to hear, their eyes unable to see, and their noses unable to smell anything.
After losing all sensory abilities, their six senses were completely blocked, and their vision, hearing, smell, and so on were completely useless. Thus, they were no different from fake death.
Li Qing and Dongfang Bingyun were in this situation.
Fortunately, Li Qing still possessed divine sense, so he extended his divine sense out and saw the scene nearby. Although it was somewhat blurry and suppressed, it was still better than not seeing anything.
Not long after, a fierce demonic tiger appeared in front of him.
If a person without divine sense lost all sensory abilities and encountered such a ferocious tiger, the result could be imagined. He could almost be said to be doomed.
Fortunately, Li Qing was able to see it clearly. He picked up the Heavenly Saber and chopped down the Demonic Tiger.
Li Qing pulled Dongfang Bingyun’s hand and led her forward.
Originally, Dongfang Bingyun had lost her ability to sense six senses at once, and her heart was in a panic. However, she was quickly grabbed by a warm hand and brought forward with her.
She quickly understood that Li Qing was leading her, so she calmed down. However, her thoughts were a little flustered. Being held by an unfamiliar man like this gave her a very peculiar feeling, especially when her six senses were blocked. This feeling was especially intense.
This was a feeling she had never experienced before, deeply imprinted in her heart.
Li Qing pulled Dongfang Bingyun along the way. Occasionally, he would encounter one or two demonic beasts that had transformed into demonic beasts that were all killed by him. Although these demonic beasts were all illusory, their injuries were real and could not be ignored.
The further behind, the stronger these illusionary demonic beasts became. Under the situation where Li Qing was distracted from protecting Dongfang Bingyun, it was inevitable that he would lose sight of one thing and lose sight of the other. Therefore, it was very difficult for him to walk.
If he continued like this, he would not be able to pass through the Misty Illusion Realm. He had the intention to retreat in his heart and decided to temporarily retreat first. It was not too late for him to enter once he was fully prepared.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed a passageway in front of him.
This was a very mysterious passageway. It was in the fog, but it did not fit into this illusion. It was as if someone had forcefully torn a path out of the fog.
Li Qing immediately came to this passageway. As soon as they reached this point, they felt that all the restraints on their bodies were gone, and they quickly regained their six senses.
“Are we out? Did we pass through the Misty Illusion Formation?” Dongfang Bingyun said.
“Not yet!” Li Qing shook his head and pointed, “Look around. It’s all white fog. We’re still in the formation.”
“Then why did I recover my six senses? Where is this passageway?” Dongfang Bingyun was puzzled.
“The passageway here should have been torn open by someone, so the fog doesn’t work.” Li Qing said.
Dongfang Bingyun sucked in a breath of cold air and said, “What kind of person is it that can forcefully tear open a passageway from such a mist?”
Ordinary people would be extremely powerful if they could smoothly pass through this illusion. However, this mysterious person was actually able to pierce through the mist illusion array. It was simply too terrifying.
“In history, there were many experts who entered the Abbot Immortal Mountain. This passageway should have been left behind by our predecessors, causing irreversible wounds to the illusion, causing it to be unable to recover.”
“It should be something done by a peerless expert. I wonder who it is.”
“Actually, if you carefully sense the aura left behind by this passageway, you will discover a familiar feeling.” Li Qing said.
“A familiar feeling?” Dongfang Bingyun calmed down and carefully sensed it before exclaiming, “I know. I just saw this aura before! It’s the Extreme Emperor Splitting Heaven Palm!”
“That’s right. This passageway was created by the Emperor’s Extreme Opening Heaven Palm. It forcefully pierced through this illusion. The power of this peerless technique is truly inconceivable.”
