Chapter Four, Sanxitang

When the "Heavenly Eye" outputs information to the user, there are generally two modes: one is a virtual screen, and the other is virtual reality. The latter requires the intelligence core to stimulate the nerves, creating a realistic sensation.

It is unclear who insisted on designing the main hall as a temple, and such a famous one at that. The classical and elegant environment is indeed pleasant, but it does appear somewhat whimsical.

To maintain confidentiality, entry must be approved by someone involved in the research. Ironically, the uncle seems to be engaged in related work in reality. In Lu Yinan's eyes, the uncle appears to have a bit of knowledge about everything, making it difficult to ascertain his actual area of expertise.

Although it is true that the uncle is not much older than Dalu Yinan, he has already left his student life behind. It seems that there is work calling for him, and the uncle hurriedly departed

Lu Yinan said, whatever the matter is, I will definitely help you. Do you want me to lend a hand? Just tell me who to hit, and with my uncle's skills...

Familiar with this place, Lu Yinan quickly found the uncle's secret room after just a few turns. Although he encountered a few acquaintances along the way, they merely greeted him when they saw him enter, and no one bothered him.

The Forbidden Land is not part of Lu Yinan's involvement in the design of the virtual space, and this is also his first visit. Therefore, upon seeing the style here, he was truly quite surprised.

Lu Yinan had long been aware that there was a privately circulating 'Ancient Martial Arts Virtual Training System' within the Sanxi Hall. It is said that this system can stimulate the user's body by utilizing the intelligence core to act on the biological parasitic beasts, thereby producing effects equivalent to physical training in reality

Stop! Stop!

Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

Lu Yinan appeared at the entrance of the Sanxi Hall, feeling somewhat dizzy

Just as desolate places are bound to be haunted, lively places are sure to have people

Although Lu Yinan's major in ability education is virtual design, which is akin to the temperament of an artist, at the age of seventeen, he has not yet reached a time of profound reflection

"Uncle? What is wrong with you?" Seeing that the seemingly distant 'Uncle' Lu Yinan quickly called out to awaken him

Ah! I haven't done much. I just contacted a friend; I have to leave for a matter. I will give you the access password, but it must not be modified. Also, it cannot be known to others. I will leave first

As the uncle just stroked his beard, Lu Yinan made a gesture to indicate a stop.

Thus, Lu Yinan could only rely on his own two feet to step into the ancient Roman Colosseum, nestled within the beautiful valley. The atmosphere was lively and bustling, with a throng of people, yet Lu Yinan confirmed through the separation of the Tianyan system that there were indeed only three individuals present here.

The battle between Lu Yinan and Zhao Pinghu just now was won through a combination of luck and psychological intimidation. It is hard to say that Zhao Pinghu would not realize this, which could lead him to seek revenge. Therefore, he is eager to find a quick method for the second-level fusion of biological parasitic beasts.

Hehe! Lu Yinan, how come you have the time to come over? I really miss you! What about the things you promised to bring me last time?

Hehe! You are always somewhat dissatisfied with my classic martial arts master image. I will design a few more later. https://www.hetushu.com The uncle is also a master of virtual image design, and has contributed to the construction and planning of Sanxitang. However, Lu Yinan has never quite agreed with his taste.

In an instant, the cup beside the water dispenser floated into the air, slowly drifting to the spout of the dispenser. It trembled a few times up and down, yet remained steadily suspended beneath the spout of the water dispenser

After wandering around both inside and outside the house, Lu Yinan confirmed that his parents were not home. He returned to the living room, collapsed onto the sofa, and stretched lazily, his eyes darting around. Within ten seconds, Lu Yinan came up with a new idea.

The virtual screen is a construct created within consciousness, a screen that fundamentally does not exist in reality. However, the effects produced after stimulating the visual nerves appear identical to what is truly seen. This technology is highly developed and aligns well with the habits accumulated by humanity over thousands of years, thus its application is quite extensive. Notably, its confidentiality is also excellent; the screen exists solely within an individual's consciousness, making it invisible to others, which ensures a high level of confidentiality. Of course, this is except when sharing information.

Lu Yinan saw that the cup was already full, extended his right hand, and opened his palm. The cup filled with water slowly floated towards Lu Yinan, stopping in front of him and landing in his hand

Lu Yinan looked at the uncle's ethereal and ancient demeanor and felt a headache. He knew that the so-called 'uncle' was merely a term of endearment used by everyone. In reality, the 'uncle' was not that old, as Lu Yinan was well aware that the 'uncle' was only two or three years older than himself

As long as some individuals share common interests and communication is not an issue, groups will form. Regardless of how trivial the activity may be, these individuals will engage in it for the sake of their interests

The sound of rushing water...

Although personal private spaces require a password for access, there are still individuals who prefer to set up a 'virtual figure' at the entrance as a form of protection. The capabilities of this figure are not a primary concern; the main purpose is to create an impressive appearance

The Colosseum of Ancient Rome

Shaolin Temple

After knocking down the left guardian with a single punch, he stepped on the chest of the right guardian. Lu Yinan strode confidently into the den of the hungry wolves. The entire fighting process lasted only one-fifth of a second

Stop! No mercy for those who advance

Taking a long, deep breath once again, Lu Yinan heightened the intensity of his mental energy and began to allocate a portion of it to the water dispenser

Oh? Have you turned seventeen?

Lu Yinan often frequents places online such as the "Ancient Martial Arts Union", "Physical Development Association", and "Martial Arts Alliance"... among others. However, his favorite is an information station called "Sanxi Hall".

The term 'Forbidden Land' is not as mysterious as it appears; it is merely the name of the database of the Sanxi Hall. The research contained within includes contributions from members studying 'Biological Sciences' at Sanxi Hall, representing formal scientific achievements and thus possessing certain intellectual property rights

Silencing his consciousness and entering his core of wisdom, Lu Yinan began to search for some of the martial arts manuals he had collected. He reconfirmed the steps he was about to take, along with the diagrams and texts.

Lu Yinan looked up and saw three large golden characters "Hungry Wolf Den" prominently displayed. The name chosen by his uncle for his private establishment was certainly unique.

Lu Yinan is quite adept at handling this, as he is in his personal private space as well. He made a call because he forgot the control codes for the Azure Dragon and White Tiger that guard his door.

From a distance, looking at the water dispenser on the coffee table, Lu Yinan took a deep breath and began to concentrate his mental energy.

Although you appear to be an elderly person in your fifties or sixties, do not try to deceive me; I have had enough of it

The advantage of the virtual training system for ancient martial arts is that it can prevent physical injuries during training and address the issue of training venues, without affecting others. It is important to note that after integrating with biological parasitic beasts, human physical capabilities significantly increase, which also greatly enhances the destructive potential to the surrounding environment. Without suitable locations, it becomes impossible to engage in intense physical activities.

The "Sanxi Hall" is a gathering place for a small group of extremely passionate enthusiasts of ancient martial arts, as well as a research society for like-minded individuals

As a fervent enthusiast of ancient martial arts, Lu Yinan is undoubtedly a staunch supporter of the "Sanxi Hall." He is now about to search through the various materials stored in his intelligence core for information regarding the impact of biological parasitic beast fusion on mental strength.

However, even though only a fraction of one ten-thousandth has been activated, it is sufficient for the Sanxi Hall, which has only a few hundred members

Initially, all sixteen designers shared a common understanding of the cultural landscape. The Sanxi Hall is undoubtedly a temple structure that is purely modeled after classical Chinese architecture. In addition to its vast area, the scenery is also exceptionally beautiful. Being amidst it evokes a sense of transcendence, offering a serene and distant tranquility, making it an excellent choice for relaxation.

With full concentration, the water dispenser successfully emitted a fine stream of water from its outlet, as if it were being operated by someone

In the Zhihuo, Lu Yinan found several suitable options, yet he was unable to make a decision. After a brief consideration, Lu Yinan accessed the information center area of 'Sanxi Hall'.

The Grand Hall, the Sutra Repository, the Arhat Hall, and the Damo Hall. As he walked along, Lu Yinan found a certain enjoyment akin to that of sightseeing in famous scenic spots. Although he was aware that the model here was neither the Putian Shaolin Temple nor the Songshan Shaolin, but rather the illusory worlds depicted in various martial arts novels

The guardian at the entrance of "Uncle" is nothing remarkable! The most extravagant is in front of the "Dragon King with Reverse Scales," the leader of Sanxi Hall, where a "Buddha Subduing Demons Formation" composed of 365 virtual characters resembling virtual monks is truly impressive and exudes extraordinary grandeur.

The space of Sanxi Hall is roughly divided into six major sections: the surrounding mountains and waters, the central architectural area, each member's private space, the grand training ground of the main hall, the forbidden area, and the peripheral connection points that must exist in each information center, resembling the design of an ancient website homepage

Every time Lu Yinan sees this plaque, he feels an urge to laugh. Although he was also involved in the design and planning of the virtual reality environment of Sanxi Hall.

The current media landscape has merged all forms, eliminating the distinctions that existed for thousands of years between television, mobile communications, newspapers, radio, and so forth, all of which have been integrated into the information network

However, the passphrase for the uncle's left and right guardians is a three-part phrase: "Oh, hehe, haha." This made Lu Yinan feel uncomfortable, and he has never adopted such a method to get through.

Before long, the cup was filled with pure water

However, due to the extent of his abilities, their application is limited to the level of telekinetically shattering a glass cup. Now, by merging with the parasitic beast, he has effectively added two thousand years of power. Lu Yinan firmly believes that his mastery of ancient martial arts will allow him to ascend to a higher level in a short period of time

Although most people are quite satisfied with the capabilities that modern technology can achieve, there are individuals like Lu Yinan who are tireless in their pursuit of self-improvement. Just as Lu Yinan cannot understand why someone would spend a high price to buy a physical book, others may view him with the same perspective.

As he stepped onto the青石台阶, just as Lu Yinan was about to enter the mountain gate, he happened to see the 'Uncle' strolling out. 'Uncle' is his nickname, rather than an indication of his actual age.

In the field of capability education, Lu Yinan chose 'Virtual Design', so he participated in the re-planning of Sanxi Hall three years ago. However, the design theme was not proposed by him. Currently, the cost of applying for virtual space is low, and the standard of social living is quite acceptable. At China Wide Space Company, applying for 10 million square kilometers of virtual space costs only 600 international currency units per year

Well! Someone really dares to think that way! Is this place really just for venting?

These individuals dream of manifesting martial arts skills that previously existed only in the imagination of their predecessors into reality. Due to their highly niche interests and a fervor akin to religious zeal, they do not tolerate any disrespect towards their idols, which leads to a certain exclusion of those who do not share their passions. For this reason, the 'Sanxi Hall' has remained a small group of a few hundred members and has not been able to grow significantly.

The Fourth Session of Sanxi Hall

Virtual space is naturally not constrained by the laws of real space. Therefore, opening the door of what appears to be merely a ten-square-meter cramped dwelling and entering a beautiful valley spanning hundreds of kilometers is not something surprising. The password given by the uncle utilizes spatial transfer, directly throwing Lu Yinan into the forbidden area, rather than allowing this kid to enter his private territory

You are indeed quite verbose, resembling an older person. I wish to enter the forbidden area; please make the necessary arrangements. Only you, the thirteen elders, have the authority to grant access there.

The term "Three Xis" refers to three authors who held a prominent position in martial arts novels long ago, all of whom were once immensely popular and have had a lasting impact. The word "Xi" naturally signifies a rare treasure. Whether in the past or present, the works of these three individuals continue to attract many readers

Hey!

Lu Yinan was overjoyed at this moment

In front of the wolf's den, two burly men stood with their hands on their hips. It was they who spoke up to prevent Lu Yinan from intruding into someone else's home without permission

When choosing the mode of entry, Lu Yinan opted for virtual reality

Wiping the water stains beside him, Lu Yinan began to pursue a long-cherished plan of his own

Sanxi Hall maintains a streamlined number of personnel. Although it has applied for the supporting benefits from China Wide Area Space Company: "For ten years, only 4,500 international currency units for ten million square kilometers of virtual space," it has only opened 1,800 square kilometers of virtual space near the main hall

Relying on one's own training to possess certain special skills is the fundamental purpose of Sanxitang

Lu Yinan, who often references and studies various ancient martial arts literature, occasionally discovers other related records. These include Chinese Qigong, the ancient Taoist practice of refining Qi, the secret practices of the Great Seal in Buddhist Esotericism, ancient Indian Yoga, and the black witchcraft passed down in South America. Due to his interest, he has practiced some of these and has achieved modest success.

Virtual reality, which emerged later in terms of technology, is a concept that predates the advent of virtual screens. Essentially, when this technology is utilized in information networks, it can create experiences in designated 'information center areas' that are indistinguishable from real environments, allowing users to walk, run, jump, and sing just as they would in reality. However, the application of this technology is not widespread; apart from in gaming and community-related 'information center areas', it is not commonly used elsewhere.

Bang

Through the research and discussions of several old experts at the Sanxi Hall, along with a few bold personal experiments, some methods for enhancing strength have been explored. These methods are categorized in various ways, encompassing a wide range of topics. The study of this 'ultra-modern martial arts research' that combines classical martial arts, chivalric culture, modern technology, and physical combat is profoundly thorough. Furthermore, certain theoretical subjects have been developed.

Lu Yinan felt there was no need to hold back against such an indestructible opponent. The instantaneous shift of super acceleration allowed Lu Yinan to launch simultaneous attacks on the left and right guardians within the time it took for a mosquito to flap its wings once.

The reactions of virtual characters cannot be compared to those of real people. Generally, they do not initiate attacks on individuals, and even when attacked, there is a delay in their response. In the face of such unethical behavior, the response delay of the left and right guardians is just sufficient for Lu Yinan to deal with them

Upon observing the environment here, Lu Yinan could roughly understand the rationale behind such a design

The Sanxi Hall employs a true capability value indicator, meaning that aside from its inherent abilities, there are no additional functions. This is different from the illusory abilities provided in most virtual games, which are sufficient to create the world and split continental plates. There are also no convenient functions from other information central areas, such as instant teleportation.

The design of the left and right guardians by the uncle is indeed a bit too weak! ? ' Lu Yinan mumbled to himself while entering the access password that the 'uncle' had just given at the second door.

In this era, the fusion of humans and biological parasitic beasts naturally leads to many abilities that were previously unimaginable to humanity. If a system such as the 'Integrated System of Chinese Ancient Martial Arts' is input into the intelligence core of a parasitic beast, one can achieve high-level combat skills with just a bit of familiarity. If one happens to be wealthy, they can also pay a substantial amount to order specially customized biological parasitic beasts, which are of superior quality and price, thus providing capabilities several times stronger than those distributed by the government. For this reason, very few people show interest in the rather obscure topic of 'Sanxi Hall'.

Hmm? Let's talk later. I have something to discuss with you

With a swift motion, he downed the pure water in the cup in one gulp, wiped the sweat trickling down his forehead, and felt a deep sense of satisfaction within.

With a tense expression on his face, Lu Yinan was uncertain whether he could achieve such a high level of material movement after merging with the biological parasitic beast.

In a virtual reality system, reading a virtual newspaper differs from reading a real newspaper in the real world primarily in that the former costs fifty times more than the latter. This was a comment made by an ordinary citizen when virtual reality technology was first becoming widespread, regarding a scientist who stated, "Virtual reality technology is about to replace virtual screens and usher in the era of × × and so on."

Lu Yinan currently requires an experienced veteran to assist him in selecting suitable methods for accelerating the second-level fusion. Therefore, this place, which possesses all the materials of the Sanxi Hall, is essential to visit. Among the thirteen members of the Elder Council, there is always one stationed here. With the authorization from the elder, Lu Yinan will be able to obtain the approval of the elders to access the materials and receive assistance.

Generally, such matters can be resolved with a single command

Thus, in certain fields, virtual screens still dominate, while the applicable domains belong to the realm of virtual reality. Not everyone appreciates that sense of unreality and illusion.

The benefits of virtual space are that one does not have to consider environmental and financial issues in reality. A building covering an area of 600 square kilometers could easily be recorded in history and be referred to as the × × miracle. However, in the virtual world, it is merely an insignificant 'information center area'

The term 'Uncle' not only refers to one of the earliest founders of Sanxitang, but he is also one of the thirteen members of the highest decision-making body, the 'Elder Council' of Sanxitang

Initially, Lu Yinan was fond of virtual games involving machine driving and extreme racing. His frequent haunts were not here, but rather the Photon United Guild, the predecessor of the Virtual Sports Alliance. However, he is now more obsessed than anyone with the so-called 'Ultra-Modern Martial Arts Research.' This obsession began when the 'Uncle' forcibly brought Lu Yinan to the Sanxi Hall. He can be considered Lu Yinan's guide, which is why the Uncle often refers to himself as Lu Yinan's 'mentor' in both public and private settings.

Lu Yinan received a set of codes through the Tianyan and promptly stored them in his intelligence core. Watching the uncle disappear into the void, Lu Yinan had no time to concern himself with the old man's trivial matters and stepped into the main entrance of the Sanxi Hall.

Although it is not the real world, the sound of virtual feedback still reflects the nature of the activities from which it originates. Many people are engaged in combat, and it appears to be quite intense

Since Sanxitang is a collective organization, it is natural for the members to communicate with each other and engage in discussions frequently

Designing a training ground in virtual space is perhaps the best idea, and it is indeed practical. It allows everyone to exercise freely here

Hastily passing by these buildings, Lu Yinan was already extremely familiar with the 'uncle's' private space. After passing through a side courtyard, Lu Yinan arrived.
