In the wilderness at dusk, the rosy glow of the sunset bathed the earth. The protagonists strolled through a quiet area on the edge of Yunxuan City, the air filled with the fragrance of grass and trees. Xiang Fan inadvertently looked up, and the scene before him made him pause.
"Brother Chu, look over there... that building looks a bit strange, and the spiritual energy fluctuations aren't right either." He raised his hand and pointed forward, his tone hesitant.
Chu Yang looked in that direction and his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had received an injection of chicken blood and became excited. "Xiao Fan, this is definitely a treasure trove! Places like this must have great things hidden! Maybe it's the secret realm of an ancient cultivator! Haha, I'm rich!"
Xiang Fan couldn't help but frown, his eyes filled with worry. "Brother, this place doesn't look safe. We should tell Sister first. What if there's danger?"
Chu Yang waved his hands, looking like a coward. "Hey, Xiaofan, there's no such thing as a path to immortality without taking risks. There are rewards only when there are risks! How can you make a fortune without taking risks?"
As they approached the building, they discovered its ancient exterior, its walls covered in intricate spiritual patterns, and faint shimmering psychic energy. Chu Yang grew increasingly excited as he surveyed it, as if he had discovered a new world. "Look at these spiritual patterns! They're definitely high-level defensive formations! There must be some incredible treasure hidden within!"
Xiang Fan glanced at him, his tone cautious. "Brother, these spiritual patterns look more like... the outer nodes of a defensive formation. What if they trigger a trap?"
Chu Yang waved his hand dismissively, his face radiating confidence. "Trap? What a joke! One shot from my guerrilla mech will completely obliterate any formation!"
Before he could finish his words, a cold rebuke came from behind him. "Chu Yang, what are you doing?" Lu Qingli walked over quickly from a distance, her eyes as cold as ice.
Chu Yang turned around awkwardly, offering a flattering smile. "Senior Sister, we're just looking around. We absolutely don't want to go in! Seriously!"
Lu Qingli approached the building and examined it carefully for a moment, a solemn look in her eyes. She turned to look at Chu Yang, her tone so cold it seemed to freeze the air. "This is the entrance to the virtual secret realm. No one is allowed to enter without the Star Lord's permission. Do you understand the consequences of trespassing in such a place?"
Chu Yang blinked, his face filled with resentment. "Senior Sister, if someone else grabs this great opportunity, won't we regret it forever?"
Lu Qingli's gaze fell on him, cold as a knife. "Do you think this is a place for fun? This level of secret realm is not something your guerrilla mecha can touch. If you trespass without permission, no one will be able to save you if something happens."
Xiang Fan stood aside and whispered, "Brother, Senior Sister is right. It's better not to act rashly. It's better to be safe than sorry."
Chu Yang sighed, his shoulders drooping like a deflated ball, and muttered, "Alright, alright, I'll listen to Senior Sister and go. But if someone else takes it away, I'll be the first to protest!"
Lu Qingli glanced at him coldly, her tone still unquestionable. "Remember, you are not allowed to come near here. If you disobey orders, you will bear the consequences."
After saying that, she turned and left. Her back was stern, but her steps were as steady as a mountain.
Chu Yang watched Lu Qingli leave and couldn't help but complain, "Senior Sister is just too cautious. We're not here as tourists."
Xiang Fan silently glanced at the strange building. The spiritual patterns flickered faintly in the night sky, like the rhythm of a heart. A strange throbbing fluttered in his heart, and he whispered to himself, "Virtual Secret Realm... What exactly is hidden in this?"
The night breeze blew gently, and the faint light of the spiritual patterns seemed to respond to his unanswered questions, as if foreshadowing some unknown adventure that was about to come.
In the Yunxuan City square, monks thronged shoulder to shoulder, their spiritual lights illuminating the entire area like daylight. On the high platform, the Star Lord, clad in a majestic black robe, exuded a faint, majestic aura of spiritual energy. His voice, carried far and wide through a spiritual amplification formation.
"My fellow cultivators, my Yunxuan Star is about to launch an unprecedented event - a newly developed virtual secret realm, which will be open to all disciples below the Jindan stage in three days!" The Star Lord raised his hand to signal, his eyes like lightning, scanning the entire audience.
The whole audience was in an uproar, and a wave of discussion surged everywhere.
"Virtual secret realm? What's new about this?" someone in the crowd asked in confusion.
"I heard that this is a trial site jointly developed by the technology faction and the traditional faction, and the scale this time is very large!" Someone looked excited.
"It's actually a virtualized battle? It sounds impressive, but can it truly recreate a psychic confrontation?"
The Star Lord on the stage paused briefly, waiting for the crowd to calm down a bit before continuing, "This virtual secret realm was developed by our Yunxuan Star Lord Mansion, in collaboration with the two major sects. The spirit beasts and challenge scenes within the secret realm are all generated by combining spiritual energy and technology, ensuring a high degree of realism while not endangering the lives of the cultivators."
This sentence was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, and the crowd became noisy again.
"Virtual spirit beast? It can actually be trained like this? This tech guy really knows how to have fun!" Someone's eyes sparkled.
"This is a good opportunity, allowing the monks to give their all without suffering any damage!" Another person was full of anticipation.
"Hehe, safe and realistic? Could it be that even the sect's death fights will be changed to virtual ones in the future?" A cultivator muttered with a sneer.
At the edge of the square, Chu Yang squeezed into the crowd, his eyes sparkling with excitement. He tugged at Xiang Fan's sleeve and shook it vigorously. "Xiao Fan, did you hear that? A virtual secret realm! This is going to be fun! I'll use my guerrilla mecha to sweep you across the entire place!"
Xiang Fan's head felt dizzy from being shaken by him. With a worried look on his face, he whispered, "Brother, the virtual secret realm might be more than just a place to play... Besides, with so many people participating, can we really make it?"
