Chapter 1: Setting prototypes and sources for this book

Setting Name - Book Setting - Prototype Source - Prototype Setting.

① Three Falls of Yuntai, Sword Howling in the Cold River, Swallow Returning to the Morning Sun — Used by Mei Qinghe, Huashan Sword Art.

Source: Online game "Moonlight Blade OL" — Skill and outfit names for the "Taibai" class.

② Plum Blossom Thief — Supporting character in this book.

Source: Novel "Gai Shi Shuang Xie" by San Tian Liang Jue — Supporting character.

PS: Brother Jue is one of my favorite authors on Qidian. In terms of talent, Huang Gua feels like the "Wu Lin Myth" among web novel authors.

It's a pity he updates three days out of two... The Sword God smiled for half a year... Huang Gua really likes the book "Gai Shi Shuang Xie," so I used this supporting character's name as a tribute.

Of course, the character's core, personality, and experiences are all original, not plagiarism, so everyone need not worry.

③ How is Dai Zong — Used by Zuo Lishan, Taishan Sword Art.

Source: Jin Yong's novel "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" — Taishan Sword Art: "This move can be considered the most profound masterpiece of the Taishan Sect's sword art. The essence lies not in the right-hand sword strikes, but in the left hand's calculations. The left hand constantly counts with its fingers, calculating the enemy's position, martial arts sect, height and build, weapon size, and even the angle of the sunlight. The calculations are extremely complex. Once calculated accurately, one strikes with the sword, and it never misses."

④ Xiao Si — Supporting character in this book.

Source: Manga "Under One Person" — Temporary Worker Arc, Chen Duo.

PS: Sigh, using Chen Duo as this prototype actually stems from a desire to give her a perfect ending within my own writing.

A little willful, a little greedy, a little spoiled little girl—if Chen Duo could be reincarnated, Huang Gua hopes she could be like this.

⑤ Centipede Gu — Gu insect raised by the Ge Pu clan.

Source: Game "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice" — Guardian Ape.

PS: Everyone should easily recognize the prototype. That damned second phase back then scared me so much I threw my controller...

That's all for now; I will update here in time if more appear later. If you are interested in a certain setting, you can go try out the prototypes~
