Chapter 5: The Five Illusory Realms

  As for the previous owner of the orange, Zhang Feiyang knew nothing about it. It seemed that the orange didn't want to tell Zhang Feiyang, and there must be some mystery behind it. However, Zhang Feiyang thought that if he wasn't told, there must be a reason for not being told, so he didn't ask.

  "Orange, orange, how did you suddenly disappear?"

  "Tangerine's voice came from the Alchemy Furnace: 'I didn't disappear, I returned to my cave mansion. The Alchemy Furnace is my cave mansion. Although I'm a divine artifact spirit with unparalleled magical powers, I also need rest.'"

  Zhang Feiyang gazed at the dark mouth of the Alchemy Furnace, his face twisted in a bitter smile. "Orange, don't sleep yet," he said. "Since you can make me instantly understand the human geography of the Divine State's fertile land, you must also be able to make me incredibly powerful in an instant, right? Just like before, come into my body and make me invincible." Zhang Feiyang thought back to the transmigration novels he had read before. Those protagonists would become gods after transmigrating, becoming invincible after transmigrating. He too wanted that kind of power.

  "Orange said in a surprised tone, "I don't have that kind of ability. If you want to become stronger, you still need to rely on your own cultivation. As for me, I can only provide some advice, and my divine sense is limited too. You only know a part of what's in my divine sense. The entire Divine State Wotu is vast and boundless, and what you know now is just the tip of the iceberg. Your knowledge range is equivalent to that of young people of the same age in the Divine State Wotu."

  Zhang Fei's face fell in disappointment, and he said: "So that's all there is to it? What should I do now? I want to get stronger, only by getting stronger can I defeat the Ten Thousand Demon Ancestor and return to my world!"

  "First of all, you need to join a sect and cultivate well within the sect before you can gradually achieve enlightenment."

  "Alright, tell me, what is the best sect in the Divine Land of China? I want to join." Looking at: Book.* Web ranking list.

  "Best sect? You're really ambitious! With your current spiritual power as a zero-egg ordinary person, it's impossible to enter the best sect. Actually, there are many good sects in Shenzhou Wotu, except for those at the top, the rest are about the same. As long as you work hard and cultivate, you can achieve enlightenment anywhere. How about this, instead of going far away, why not just join the nearest sect 'Xianjian Pavilion'?"

  Zhang Fei's eyes lit up and he said, "The Xianjian Pavilion must be a cultivation sect that specializes in using swords!"

  "Right, we are now at the foot of Biyun Mountain. If we climb up along Biyun Mountain and reach the top, we can see a branch of Xianjian Pavilion."

  "Alright, let's go to the Xianjian Pavilion now!" As he spoke, he raised his head and looked up. A mountain peak appeared above the trees, which was Bìyún Mountain. The summit was shrouded in mist and clouds, still very high.

  Just take the first step.

  "Hey, you're even more impatient than a monkey! Your spiritual energy is zero right now, so even if you make it to Mount Bixia, they won't accept you. Besides, the mountain is full of ferocious beasts above the waist, and I'm not in top form right now, so I wouldn't be able to protect you there either. If something were to happen to you, that would be a real shame."

  "What's to be done then? You must have some idea in your mind, why not say it out at once and save me from advancing a step only to retreat again."

  "Orange laughed loudly and said: "Okay, I won't play with you anymore. Now go ahead, I'll show you the way. Let's go get some equipment first and arm ourselves."

  "Equipment?"

  "Right, before I was sealed away, I had already hidden my equipment in various places throughout the Divine State, preparing for when I would be reborn after bathing in blood. Heaven has not been unfair to me, and finally, this day has arrived."

  Zhang Feiyang, who was used to Chengzi's tone of voice, said impatiently: "Alright, alright, how do we get there? Is it far?"

  "Not far, not far. After leaving this forest, turn left, pass through three villages, then turn right, and walk straight until you reach the foot of Red Cloud Mountain."

  "Whoa, that sounds really far! Slow down and I reckon it'll take us half an hour to get out of this forest!"

  "Hey, you can go slowly then. Let's talk after we get out of this forest. I'm going to take a nap first." After that, Tangerine's voice was no longer heard.

  Zhang Fei swung the Lian Yao Furnace back and forth, but there was no response. He thought to himself: "Since the Lian Yao Furnace has undergone blood fusion with me, it must have some connection with me. I'll carefully sense it and try." So he closed his eyes and used his spiritual sense to feel the Lian Yao Furnace.

  Suddenly, two strands of spiritual energy followed Zhang Fei Yang's hands into the alchemy furnace. Instantly, they sensed the interior of the alchemy furnace. The lower part of the alchemy furnace was divided into five separate alchemy realms, each realm vast like a lake, extremely majestic. Five realms: one realm was ethereal and filled with golden light, representing Metal. One realm had lush giant trees, dense vines, representing Wood. One realm was a vast ocean, waves surging fiercely, representing Water. One realm was raging flames, sweeping across the land, representing Fire. The last realm was yellow earth like sand, churning like boiling water, representing Earth.

  After watching the five illusory realms, Zhang Fei Yang felt that he had seen the most shocking scene since his birth, and was so astonished that he sweated profusely, never expecting that this small refining furnace could contain such a vast world!
