The previous setting where the water ability user Su Li used the Three Lights Divine Water was incorrect. I couldn't be bothered to go back and change it, so I'm mentioning it here. I hope your memories aren't that clear!
The Three Lights Divine Water is divided into Sunlight Divine Water, Moonlight Divine Water, and Starlight Divine Water.
Among them, Sunlight Divine Water can erode blood, essence, bones, and flesh; Moonlight Divine Water can corrode the primordial spirit and soul; Starlight Divine Water can devour and dissolve the true spirit and consciousness.
Once the three divine waters are combined into one, they become the premier healing sacred medicine, capable of dispelling all so-called "incurable" poisons, healing all wounds and illnesses, even regenerating bone and reviving the dead.
Several days ago, when Yu Zhibo stood shoulder to shoulder with Su Li on the battlefield in Modu, the latter merely summoned a drop of Three Lights Divine Water, which decomposed and integrated into his water abilities, displaying immense power. Even diluted countless times, it could still melt fierce beasts, demonstrating its terrifying nature.
At this moment, Yu Zhibo was standing in the void not far from the Gate of Hell.
He discovered that the might of the Three Lights Divine Water used by Su Li that day was like a tiny spark compared to the scene before him. If Su Li were here now, he might shed tears on the spot.
The area within several kilometers where the Gate of Hell appeared had been completely turned into a battlefield. Citizens had been urgently evacuated. Black nether energy flowed within the bronze gate, and as ferocious ghosts roared, they charged out from the bronze gate connecting to hell, their power immense.
However, a silver giant dragon lay across the front of the Gate of Hell. The moment the charging ferocious ghosts appeared, most were devoured by the dragon. Some ferocious ghosts stepped forward to bite the dragon's body, and upon contact, they instantly dissolved, vanishing into the heavens and earth.
Li Dao sat cross-legged on the head of the silver dragon. His expression was calm. The giant dragon beneath him had divine light in its eyes, as if possessing sentience. With a sweep of its tail, it blew apart the ferocious ghosts on the spot.
This silver dragon was, in fact, formed from the Moonlight Divine Water of the Three Lights Divine Water, capable of corroding primordial spirits and souls, possessing a natural restraint over ferocious ghosts.
"So big!" Yu Zhibo exclaimed as he looked at the silver giant dragon.
How much Three Lights Divine Water had Su Li painstakingly accumulated? Just one drop!
And Li Dao before him had directly condensed a massive amount of Moonlight Divine Water into a giant dragon for combat. Even without summoning the Sunlight Divine Water and Starlight Divine Water, he likely had plenty. Compared to Su Li, he was simply inhumanly wealthy.
At this moment, Yu Zhibo was one hundred percent certain that Li Dao's true form was the divine beast Xuan Li. Only then could it explain why Li Dao could so easily give him a drop of Xuan Li's blood that day and refine such a massive amount of Three Lights Divine Water.
But even if Li Dao was not human, it did not prevent Yu Zhibo from developing a good impression of him, as his willingness to defend Dragon Country from the invasion of ferocious ghosts said it all.
"Little Yu, you're here!" Li Dao slightly turned his head to look at him and greeted him.
He had a good impression of Yu Zhibo, after all, he had saved his only sister. Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked exposing his identity to give him a drop of true blood back then.
Seeing that he alone was blocking the entire Gate of Hell, Yu Zhibo did not mention Li Dao's true identity and instead gave him a thumbs up, praising, "Brother Dao, you're amazing! I didn't expect you to be hiding so much!"
Hearing this, Li Dao shrugged helplessly and said, "I actually just wanted to be a salted fish, but most of the strong individuals in Ningcheng have been dispatched to the coastal defense line. It can't be helped. The director didn't even send anyone over after knowing I was guarding here. It's unavoidable, so I had to take on this mission in a time of crisis!"
Speaking of this, Li Dao's face showed some resentment, but he also guessed that his sudden exposure of identity had not triggered any precautions from the Shenhua Bureau. Clearly, Dao Sheng had spoken to the subordinates after seeing him, still acknowledging him as a member of the Shenhua Bureau.
At this time, after several hours of battle, the Rakshasa ghost that had opened the Gate of Hell had been eliminated, but the Gate of Hell had not closed. Moreover, it was made of some unknown material and could not be destroyed at all. Ferocious ghosts continuously poured out and were then eliminated. Both sides were in a stalemate.
Seeing that there was nothing that needed help here, Yu Zhibo said goodbye and left. When he returned to his residence, the clone that had gone to the office to converse with Xu Yuanhong had also dissipated, transmitting back the specific information from their conversation.
"So that's how it is. The Gate of Hell in Ningcheng is not an isolated case. There are hundreds of them worldwide!"
"From now on, except for Dragon Country, the outside world might be completely occupied by ferocious beasts, sea beasts, and dark creatures. Dragon Country might become the target of public criticism, and condensing the Golden Dragon of National Destiny is urgent."
"Dragon Country's national destiny? Condensing the collective will of the people, deriving a giant dragon of national destiny through grand means, can protect a nation's territory and resist invasion. I didn't expect such a method to exist."
"To change the will of the people, I need to use my Sharingan... This means I have to stream again..."
Yu Zhibo felt some emotion and excitement in his heart.
A true man born in troubled times should achieve unparalleled merit, and not live in vain.
"It's a pity I haven't evolved the Rinne Sharingan. Otherwise, I could project the Sharingan onto the moon and activate a technique similar to the Infinite Tsukuyomi to influence the will of the people."
After a moment of reflection, Yu Zhibo opened the Shenhua app. As expected, messages promoting patriotism filled the entire screen.
"Understanding the Red Belief, Retracing the Motherland's Journey from a Thousand Scars to Prosperity. Watch to receive 100 Shenhua Coins!" Playback: 1.048 billion.
"Ability Battle Compilation: Cataloging the Supernatural Beings Who Silently Sacrificed and Contributed Behind the Scenes to Resist the Invasion of Alien Beasts!" Playback: 864 million.
"Satisfying: Dragon Country's Supernatural Beings Explore the Eternal Night World, Encounter Foreign Supernatural Beings Attempting to Rob Them, and Are Angrily Annihilated by Dragon Country's Supernatural Beings!" Playback: 548 million.
"The Ordinary Can Also Be Heroes: Firefighter Yang Lei Sacrifices Himself to Rescue a Little Girl and His Teammates. At the Brink of Death, He is Successfully Rescued by the Light of the Republic of China, Yu Zhibo!" Playback: 762 million.
Titles and related content like these were everywhere on the Shenhua app, igniting a patriotic fervor among netizens. Comments like "No regrets in this life to be born in China, and to be born in China again in the next life," "Listen to this dragon's roar!" and "Long live Dragon Country" were ubiquitous.
However, this world never lacked sarcastic people, even among regulatory departments.
"Firefighters get paid, isn't it their duty to protect people's lives and property? You're still hyping this? Hilarious! I don't think this is separatist speech, I hope for freedom of speech online, don't engage in literary inquisition!" (Smile) (Smile) (Dog head for safety) Dislike (640226), Like (284), Reply (54052)
"What's so good about these battles? Hyped up so grandly, but in the end, it's all for money! You all see how high and mighty ability users are, driving luxury cars, living in villas (Smile) (Smile), calling it selfless contribution, but in the end, it's all for merit points!" Dislike (531126), Like (18), Reply (44653)
"They just came up to take some spirit stones, and you killed them? Where is the demeanor of a civilized nation? Honestly, I don't approve of this behavior, as everyone has the right to live. According to the law, such people should be sentenced (Wink)" Dislike (123225), Like (144), Reply (89763)
Such borderline remarks appeared below the documentaries, were pinned by the authorities, and were met with a barrage of criticism from netizens. The individuals who made these remarks, due to their noble sentiments and magnanimity, were tearfully selected to join the glorious ranks of "Supporting Foreign Friends and Maintaining World Peace," assisting the suffering foreign peoples.
The changes in laws are evolved according to the evolution of the world. For example, data-type ability users did not exist in ancient times, but in this era of the internet, unique laws have emerged, allowing Xu Yuanhong to break through the level of fifty divine ranks.
Below Xu Yuanhong, there are countless ability users of the same type.
In troubled times, strict measures are taken!
Under the investigation by data-type ability users, netizens were stripped bare, with no privacy whatsoever. Their identities, backgrounds, and past remarks were dug up. After being taken away for investigation and then undergoing a mental test by psychic ability users, if confirmed to be troublemakers, they were all dispatched to support foreign countries without any leniency.
There were also some patriotic extremists whose remarks were too extreme. They attacked good beasts that helped humans, saying that those who are not of our kind will have different intentions. They suggested killing them, extracting their souls and refining them, and using their flesh and blood to forge artifacts to enhance the strength of local ability users.
Even the national treasure pandas, after becoming demonic, have been serving the country, yet they were subjected to vicious attacks. Even Li Dao, who had only been exposed to the public eye for a few hours, was already being cyberbullied by a group of patriotic extremists.
These people were also purged.
Outside of the Shenhua app, various television stations and portal websites were dominated by patriotic films and television shows such as "Drawing the Sword" and "The Battle at Lake Changjin," offering phone credit or membership as rewards for watching, attracting the public.
Under such circumstances, the will of the people was gradually gathered. If Yu Zhibo reached the fifty divine rank, he would be able to see a nascent Golden Dragon of National Destiny spanning across the national borders in the sky above Dragon Country, continuously absorbing the will from the people. However, there was still some distance to go before its complete formation.
This was because many mixed and impure wills were mixed within these wills. These people, even though they were born and raised here, had no sense of belonging to Country L. Their wills not only failed to promote the formation of the Golden Dragon of National Destiny but also disrupted the cohesion of national destiny.
Xu Yuanhong's request for Yu Zhibo to start a live stream was aimed at this group.
After Yu Zhibo agreed, the authorities immediately launched a new round of somewhat exaggerated, bombing-style propaganda.
"December 5th, 2 PM! The Nation's Light Yu Zhibo will once again broadcast live: After watching, the awakening probability is as high as 90%, without any pain. Regret for life if you don't watch!"
