“When we find your father’s body, it won’t be too late to thank him. It’s still too early to say that.” Li Qing said, “Coupled with the fact that I have accepted your benefits, this is what I should do.”

“No, this is different.” Dongfang Bingyun’s eyes were red and her eyes were filled with gratitude. “Back then, we had only agreed to search in the Huan Overseas Circle. You agreed to this mission for the sake of not putting your life in danger. However, the current situation has far exceeded the previous agreement. You almost lost your life. This is what I should really thank you for.”

“We’ve been together for so long. We should be considered friends, right? It’s our duty to help our friends. It doesn’t matter even if we take a little risk. Don’t be such an outsider.” Li Qing said.

“That’s right, we’re friends now! I’m an outsider, let Li Qing laugh at you.”

Hearing Li Qing treat her as a friend, Dongfang Bingyun sneered and revealed a gorgeous smile, like a blooming iceberg snow lotus.

Seeing such a beautiful smile, Li Qing couldn’t help but be stunned. It took a while for him to regain his senses.

Compared to Liu Ke’er and Su Jing Xiang’s beauty, Dongfang Bing Yun’s beauty seemed to have a different charm. Her performance looked like an iceberg, cold and noble, but it contained blazing emotions. If someone could conquer her, she would give up on you and unreservedly release all of her burning emotions.

“Idiot, have you seen enough!” Dongfang Bingyun stamped his feet and said shyly.

“Uh… I was rude.” Li Qing smiled bitterly. He had always wanted to keep a distance from her, but why did he feel that the relationship between the two of them seemed to be closer now?

It seemed that to resist the temptation of beauty, it was really a very difficult matter, and one had to stay awake all the time.

“Let’s go. Let’s go find your father first.” Li Qing changed the topic.

“Alright, alright!” Dongfang Bingyun hurriedly nodded.

The two of them left the Abbot Immortal Mountain.

The surroundings were covered with white clouds and smoke, and there were many illusions hidden within. If it were before, one would have to be cautious, lest they accidentally fall into the illusion.

However, today was different from the past. Li Qing was not afraid at all. He controlled the power of the Abbot Immortal Mountain and was able to influence the Sea of Illusion.

Under his control, the white smoke in front of him automatically separated into a path that pierced through the illusion. The two of them followed this path and left this dangerous place.

“It’s truly amazing. The power of the Immortal Mountain is still there. It’s actually able to move freely in the Sea of Illusion.” Dongfang Bingyun was amazed.

“This is also limited. The farther away I am from the Abbot Immortal Mountain, the weaker the power I can control. However, this should be enough to ensure that most of the area is safe.” Li Qing said.

“Illusory beasts shouldn’t be affected, right? If they attack us, they might also be in danger.” Dongfang Bingyun said.

“You’re right. Illusory beasts may indeed attack. I will always be vigilant to prevent a sneak attack.” He had encountered those two Illusory Beasts before and had left a deep impression on him. Of course, he would not let down his guard.

These fantasy beasts looked like white clouds, hiding in the fog, extremely concealed, difficult to detect. However, Li Qing possessed divine sense and even controlled the power of the Abbot Immortal Mountain. Therefore, he was always able to detect the location of the Illusory Beasts, making it impossible for them to sneak attack.

If he encountered powerful Illusory Beasts and wasn’t confident in dealing with them, Li Qing would change his direction in advance and avoid these powerful Illusory Beasts.

Along the way, there was no danger. The two of them searched the sea of illusions for Dongfang Bingyun’s father’s body.

Finding someone in the Sea of Illusion wasn’t so easy. The situation here was much more dangerous than the normal environment, and there was no specific target area. It was no different from searching for a needle in a haystack. The difficulty was simply too great.

Dongfang Bingyun said, “You’ve paid too much for this mission. I can’t be so selfish and waste your time. Help me search for another month. When the time comes, I’ll leave.”

“Sure.” Li Qing did not refuse. It was impossible for him to accompany Dongfang Bingyun in this matter for the rest of his life. There was a limit to how much he could help others.

Of course, it was mainly because Dongfang Bingyun didn’t have enough weight in his heart. If it was Liu Ke’er, then it would be worth it to waste more time.

Dongfang Bingyun knew that there were many terrifying dangers in the Sea of Illusion. She had made sufficient preparations in this regard, so she had a deep understanding of them.

When she told Li Qing this information, he would be able to detect the danger ahead in advance and avoid it far away.

With the passage of time, they were getting farther and farther away from the Abbot Immortal Mountain, the weaker the connection between the two sides, and the less power they could use. Fortunately, there was no problem passing through the surrounding illusions safely. They didn’t have to worry about falling into the boundless illusions.

After searching for about half a month, a large area of dense fog appeared in front of him. The white smoke was extremely dense. Something shocking happened to Li Qing. In this region, the power of the Abbot Immortal Mountain had actually lost its effectiveness.

“What’s going on?” Li Qing was puzzled. This kind of thing had never happened before.

“What’s the matter?” Dongfang Bingyun said.

“The power of the Abbot Immortal Mountain has lost its effectiveness in the area ahead.”

Dongfang Bingyun was also puzzled, “This is strange. Even the famous dangerous places in the Sea of Illusion would not have such a situation.”

Li Qing carefully sensed it and said, “I know what’s going on! Because there is another Immortal Mountain ahead that will reject the power of the Abbot Immortal Mountain!”

“What? Another Immortal Mountain?” Dongfang Bingyun cried out. Doesn’t this mean that they have a chance to ascend another Immortal Mountain?

“According to my senses, there must be an Immortal Mountain ahead. That should be certain. That is the area controlled by this Immortal Mountain. Only then will it be able to repel external forces and render the power of the Abbot Immortal Mountain ineffective.”

“I see! Then do we have a chance to ascend?” Dongfang Bingyun said.

“Very difficult!” Li Qing shook his head.

“Why?”

“Even if we know that there is an Immortal Mountain ahead, we may not be able to find it. It is close at hand, but it is far away from the horizon. We can’t see or touch it.”

Dongfang Bingyun thought for a moment and nodded, “That’s right, in the legends of the past, you have to rely on luck to see an immortal mountain. It doesn’t mean that you can find it just by knowing its location.”

Even if it was an expert who was fortunate enough to have ascended the Immortal Mountain before, if he wanted to ascend it a second time, it would still be impossible.

This was the wonders of Immortal Mountain. Although he knew that there was an immortal mountain ahead and its location was very certain, finding it depended on luck. No matter what, it was impossible for him to be able to climb up before the opportunity arrived.

“Before, we were able to see the Abbot Immortal Mountain. It was also transported there by the Great Whirlpool. Only then did we have the fortune to ascend it. It’s not as simple as it seems.” Li Qing said.

“Even so, I still have to give it a try. What if I’m lucky enough to succeed?” Dongfang Bingyun laughed.

“That’s right.” Li Qing nodded in agreement. He had finally arrived here, so how could he retreat without trying? Legends are only legends, but practice is the truth.

After the discussion was settled, the two of them entered the area in front of them. The fog was thick and dangerous, and one could get caught up in it if one wasn’t careful. Fortunately, Li Qing had immortal gold in his hand. This was a supreme immortal being born from the Sea of Illusions. Naturally, he was able to restrain the illusions here.

Relying on the power of the Immortal Gold in their hands, they struggled forward.

As expected, they had indeed failed. After circling around inside, they walked out in a daze.

“Even with the power of Immortal Gold, I still can’t break through the barrier in front of me!” Dongfang Bingyun sighed.

“Let’s try again. If we don’t succeed, then give up.” Li Qing said.

The two of them entered again. Similar to the situation before, they had encountered many terrifying illusions. Only Immortal Gold would be able to pass through them without any dangers.

Slowly entering the fog, Li Qing’s heart suddenly stirred when he passed by a place and said, “Wait!”

“What’s the matter?”

“Follow me!” Li Qing raised the Immortal Gold in his hand and emitted a rainbow light, illuminating a nearby fog.

The fog automatically separated, revealing the situation inside.

This was a gigantic illusion. Under the rainbow light, it collapsed one after another, revealing a real scene.

The two of them looked up and saw a lonely figure sitting in the depths of the fog.

“Father!” Dongfang Bingyun exclaimed.

When this person heard the voice, he immediately opened his eyes and saw Dongfang Bingyun, revealing a shocked expression, “Bing’er!”

But he quickly calmed down and shook his head, “There’s another hallucination. How could my daughter appear here?”

Dongfang Bingyun immediately rushed forward, tears of joy flowing out of his eyes as he shouted, “Father, it’s really you! So you’re not dead, you’re still alive.”

“You don’t have to lie to me. It must be an illusion. How could my daughter come here?”

Dongfang Bingyun’s father, whose name was Dongfang You Long, had a look of disbelief on his face.

“I’m real, not an illusion! I’m your daughter Bingyun!” Dongfang Bingyun hurriedly argued.

“The illusion is becoming more and more realistic. Sigh, when can I go out and see my real daughter?” Dongfang You Long sighed in sorrow.

“Father, I am really your daughter, not a fake!” Dongfang Bingyun was speechless. He had finally found his father, but he was mistaken for a fake one. However, he didn’t know how to prove that he was real.

“I don’t believe you’re telling the truth! Huan Hai is so dangerous, how can I believe that my daughter can enter?”

Li Qing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He said, “This way, he definitely can’t believe it. Why don’t we take him out and explain it slowly?”

“That’s the only way.” Dongfang Bingyun was also helpless. Originally, meeting father and daughter should have been an incomparably happy thing, but in the end, such a dramatic scene was formed.
