He was still exploring the cemetery.

Completely unaware.

The outside world has already been stirred up by his complete annihilation of the Emperor's army.

Originally, the Emperor and the others decided to keep quiet about such a humiliation, since it was not something to brag about for four top players to be wiped out by an 'ordinary player'.

However, there are no secrets that stay hidden forever.

The news eventually spread like wildfire.

Open the forum.

You can directly see that the titles of several posts trending on the hot search are all:

"The Heavenly Court's ruler was brutally murdered by an unknown nobody, and the four top experts were all wiped out. Was this all just empty boasting?"

"Bold words in the beginning, silence in the end: the Heavenly Court's crushing defeat on Fallen Dragon Island!"

"With the Goddess of the Mortal World on the team, why did the White Emperor ruthlessly kill them? Click in to uncover the secrets of their love-hate relationship!"

“...”

The example of Liu Er has shown many astute people a path to wealth.

Regardless of whether it's true or not.

In short, focus on capturing trending topics first, and then worry about generating traffic.

There was no compensation for posting on the official forum.

However, there are many ways to monetize it.

The simplest way is to display your products in a shop window. As long as someone clicks on this kind of shop window, the blogger can receive advertising fees.

Therefore, some people will stop at nothing to gain traffic.

Rumors are spreading everywhere.

Rumors are rumors.

After reading about what happened, most onlookers couldn't help but feel intensely curious.

Just who exactly is this White Emperor?

Soon someone dug it up.

He was also ranked number one on the first public leaderboard in Lord Mode.

However, this title only has a significant impact among lord-level players, and it doesn't attract much attention from ordinary players.

After this battle...

It was only then that the name Bai Di officially entered the public eye.

The numerous rumors quickly made the Heavenly Court's higher-ups uneasy, as this matter had greatly affected their guild's reputation.

Therefore, the counterattack against Su Bai came quickly.

The media machine of top clubs is activated.

Almost instantly,

A large number of negative comments about Su Bai emerged on the forum.

Only a small portion of these accounts mention that Su Bai was able to win mainly through underhanded means such as sneak attacks.

The vast majority of posts were carefully fabricated, containing a lot of "dirt" on Su Bai.

Even though Su Bai himself might not know those scandalous details...

That's how public opinion works.

The masses don't care about the truth.

Most people use the internet as a platform to vent their frustrations and anxieties about life.

They don't care who is right or wrong at all.

They follow whoever's voice is loudest, and even if public opinion eventually reverses, they've already packed up and left, heading to the next public opinion 'battlefield'.

The Heavenly Court's media studio clearly understands this well.

They dispatched a bunch of small media accounts to guide the narrative.

The official response was limited to a single announcement.

The gist of it was that Su Bai's success was entirely due to a surprise attack.

In addition.

Several top players' mindless fans cheered together.

Soon, the discussion on the forum shifted from the Heavenly Court's defeat to Su Bai himself.

And himself.

They were still exploring the cemetery, completely unaware of what was happening.

Fortunately, he had blocked emails from unknown accounts on various social media platforms beforehand; otherwise, he would have been attacked by countless 'righteous netizens' by now.

...

Dreams are constantly changing.

Fortunately, with the Star Compass enthusiastically provided by the Emperor and the others, Su Bai was always able to find the correct path.

after a while.

The scenery around him began to subtly change.

The tombstones standing in the ground have become more ancient and dilapidated, and the soil on the surface is dark brown, with half-buried remains occasionally exposed.

They advanced a short distance.

An ancient cemetery, enclosed by a black iron fence, appeared in the mist ahead.

The blackened trees grew twisted and gnarled, resembling horrific corpses. Flocks of enormous crows perched on their trunks, their eyes like scarlet jewels, emitting hoarse, piercing cries.

"quack!..."

The sound echoed in the silent cemetery, adding to the chilling and ominous atmosphere.

"arrive."

Su Bai circled around and found the main entrance to the cemetery.

A double-leaf gate, bound by rusty chains, could be easily broken with the slightest force. Looking around, the small cemetery was piled high with tombstones, less than half a meter apart, stacked layer upon layer, even blocking the passageways. It was hard to imagine the exaggerated extent to which the corpses piled up here had reached.

Most of the tombstones here are very old, and the inscriptions have become blurred and illegible after years of weathering.

Before entering the cemetery, Su Bai reached out and touched his face.

A gloomy atmosphere pervaded the air.

His existence was suddenly as if he were isolated from the entire world.

"Hopefully the mission objective is here, otherwise it will be troublesome." Su Bai thought to himself as he stepped into the old cemetery area.

Besides searching for the mission objective, Su Bai had another purpose for this trip.

Gather the flowers of clarity.

To find the truth within the nightmare, a tool called 'Awakening Potion' is needed, which is made by using this herb as the main ingredient.

And the awakening potion can be used not only in nightmares.

It exhibits extremely high resistance to many negative mental effects, such as sleep, charm, and confusion.
