Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1007 - 503: Palace of the Mind (Part 2)
"There’s no electronic signal here, no physical monitoring, not even mental probing can get in. It’s arguably the safest place in the world for a gathering."
Seeing Fang Cheng nod in agreement, her spirit lifted, she thought for a moment, then continued:
"Next, it’s about convenience."
"No matter where we are in the world, simply visualizing the sun allows us to assemble here instantly, without needing a quiet environment or sitting meditation, to complete intelligence exchanges and tactical deployments."
"This zero-latency communication and command capability may very well be our biggest strategic advantage in the future."
"Moreover."
Fang Cheng smiled and continued the conversation:
"Here, the flow of time, environmental changes, even material rules, can theoretically be adjusted by me."
"Though I can’t do anything too exaggerated right now, using it as a training site to cultivate organization members or simulate tactics, exercise member abilities, would absolutely yield twice the result with half the effort."
Of course, there’s another most important function Fang Cheng did not mention.
That is, through inputting his own spiritual energy, directly letting consciousness descend upon the other, even temporarily controlling their body.
This power is too domineering, one could say it’s somewhat evil.
Even with the closest companions, it still involves infringement of personal privacy and free will.
Moreover, Fang Cheng hasn’t fully understood the risks involved.
Unless in a life-and-death emergency, he wouldn’t easily use it on Lin Chuqiao, nor does he plan to reveal this secret now.
Even so, Lin Chuqiao was already quite shocked.
With her insight, she couldn’t help but be startled by this idea.
She understands too well what such an extraordinary ability means to an organization.
It’s almost like having a portable base at one’s disposal.
"Come, let me show you around."
Fang Cheng accompanied the still-excited Lin Chuqiao on a stroll through this magnificent palace.
Their footsteps echoed in the empty hall.
Lin Chuqiao, like a little girl entering a grand park, showed intense curiosity along the way.
Sometimes she touched the delicate reliefs on the walls, sometimes she carefully observed the mysterious painted patterns on the dome.
She even ran to the edge of the hall, trying to push open the floor-to-ceiling windows to see the world outside.
"Did you create all this?"
Lin Chuqiao turned to look at Fang Cheng, admiration and affection almost overflowing from her eyes.
In this world, belonging only to the two of them, she no longer hid her inner thoughts:
"Brother Cheng, just how many secrets are you hiding?"
"Why do I feel like you’re a huge iceberg, every time you reveal a corner, I find I don’t know you well enough..."
Fang Cheng smiled without answering, walked to her side, and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.
At this moment, the two stood on the high palace corridor, overlooking the empty hall.
The scene resembled a king and queen inspecting their territory.
Only, it was slightly empty around, lacking the bustling throng of courtiers.
"This is just the beginning..."
Fang Cheng turned his head, gazed into Lin Chuqiao’s eyes, calmly enjoying the intimacy and trust:
"In the future, this place will become more lively, and more complete, truly becoming a real world."
"And you are the first to witness it all."
Lin Chuqiao’s cheeks flushed, thinking she could enjoy such an honor alone, her heart couldn’t help but feel a burst of sweetness.
A moment later, Fang Cheng withdrew his gaze, gently patting the back of her hand:
"Alright, the tour is temporarily over. Another guest is waiting for us."
Though Lin Chuqiao was reluctant, she knew the matter was urgent, she nodded obediently and stepped aside.
With the first successful experience, the subsequent operations went much more smoothly.
Fang Cheng returned to the platform, sat back on the Golden Throne symbolizing absolute authority.
His eyes slightly narrowed, mobilizing all the power of the Inner World, and performed Spiritual Resonance in the same fashion.
Under his will, True Sun Fire converged into an invincible Light Arrow.
The next moment, the golden Light Arrow shot forward, precisely aimed at the Star representing Ye Zhiran.
Soon the Dark Void was illuminated, another splendid beam of light crashed down in the center of the hall.
Awaiting the light to fade, Ye Zhiran’s figure emerged.
Compared to Lin Chuqiao’s excitement, the response of this S-Class Spiritual Ability User was much more composed, one could even say he suffered from a professional habit.
As soon as he appeared, he immediately adjusted his glasses, his gaze rapidly scanning the surrounding environment like radar.
"Space structure is stable... high concentration of spirit particles... surprisingly, no boundary detected..."
He mumbled to himself, bending over, using the back of his hand to gently knock on the ground, lying down to listen for echoes.
When he lifted his head, finally seeing Fang Cheng and Lin Chuqiao standing beside the throne, he couldn’t help but open his mouth in surprise:
"President? Chu Qiao? You... also came in?"
"Welcome, Professor."
Fang Cheng smiled and nodded in greeting.
Lin Chuqiao ventured forward, simply explaining to him what had just occurred.
Upon learning the specifics, even the usually steadfast and calm Ye Zhiran couldn’t help but twitch his brow.
"I also possess my own Spiritual Secret Realm, the so-called ’Thought House.’"
He gazed around this enormous palace, light flickering behind his glasses:
"But that is an extremely private and small space. If I want to invite others in, I must provide a complex Spirit Key, a voice password, to them."
