Chapter 44: Lightning Striking the Spirit Mountain?

As the livestream commenced, the viewers who entered were instantly struck with astonishment.

At this moment, the "Mu Nan" livestream room had undergone a world-shaking transformation!

Golden mist swirled within the broadcast frame, with the hazy silhouettes of celestial palaces appearing and disappearing amidst the clouds and rainbows in the background.

The flowing mist drifted ethereally, creating the illusion that the celestial palaces behind were also floating.

The streamer sat at the center, clad in celestial armor with flowing robes.

Radiating an aura of divinity, he sat with a commanding presence that inspired awe without even needing to show anger!

This scene felt as if the broadcast were truly taking place within the Celestial Palace of the Thunder Ancestor!

Seeing this, the bullet chat exploded.

"Holy crap... where did they send me? Is this the Celestial Realm?!"

"Has the streamer ascended to the ranks of the immortals?"

"If you look closely, the scenery is a bit artificial, but the streamer's portrayal is so spot-on that it's hard to resist. In a daze, it actually feels like we're watching a live broadcast of a myth."

"So cool. This completely crushes all other roleplay streamers."

Watching the scrolling comments, a smile appeared on Wang Chengyu's face as he explained to the audience.

"We just suggested it, and they arranged it this quickly? The streamer really listens to advice!"

"Look at that background and the atmosphere... tsk tsk, truly impressive!"

Amidst the discussions of the viewers in the livestream, a flood of positive comments scrolled through the chat!

At the same time, a voice rang in Lin Nan's ear

【Congratulations, Host, for achieving the suggestion: Change Background, Thunder Ancestor's Divine Mansion! Difficulty: Moderate. Obtained 6% Roleplay Completion!】

【Current Roleplay Completion has reached 20%! Reward: One hundred years of magical power! Obtained: Guiyuan Spring Thunder Seal!】

Hearing this voice, Lin Nan felt a surge of joy in his heart; his efforts had not been in vain!

However, the reward provided by the system this time piqued Lin Nan's interest.

In addition to one hundred years of magical power, a magical technique had appeared.

With a thought from Lin Nan, the explanation for the "Guiyuan Spring Thunder Seal" appeared in his mind

【The Nine Heavens Responding Yuan Thunder Universalizing Heavenly Venerable governs life, death, prosperity, and decay; rewards and punishes good and evil; moves clouds and brings rain; slays demons and subdues monsters; and commands the thunder.】

【As the governor of life, death, prosperity, and decay, he universalizes all living beings. The Guiyuan Spring Thunder Seal can control the flourishing or withering of life; those upon whom the seal is placed may either revitalize their ancient bloodlines or fall into atrophy and decay.】

After hearing the explanation of the "Guiyuan Spring Thunder Seal," Lin Nan gained an insight.

In other words, this seal could allow living beings to tap into their latent potential?

It was said that many animals today possessed the bloodlines of ancient divine beasts, but over the years, these bloodlines had become extremely faint.

If given the chance, he could try using the Guiyuan Spring Thunder Seal to see if he could restore the splendor of ancient divine beasts.

Furthermore, the previous suggestion to tame the Black Qilin mount had not yet been achieved.

Perhaps he could search for creatures with remnants of ancient bloodlines to bring a divine beast like the Qilin back to life!

Thinking of this, Lin Nan had already made a decision.

While Lin Nan was lost in thought, the livestream continued.

By this time, after their brief moment of surprise, the viewers were marveling at how much the streamer listened to advice.

Consequently, they began enthusiastically offering suggestions in the chat, their ideas being quite diverse.

"The mist is swirling in the frame; if the streamer could ride the clouds and mist during the broadcast, it would definitely have more visual impact!"

"It is said that under the Thunder Ancestor, there are many thunder departments and thirty-six Thunder Lords. If they could all be invited to stand in a row, the prestige would be off the charts!"

In Lin Nan's mind, several voices rang out in succession

【Multiple suggestions detected. Suggestions have been recorded.】

【Recorded Suggestion: Riding Clouds and Mist, Manifestation of the Thunder Ancestor! Difficulty: High. Reward: 15% Roleplay Completion!】

【Recorded Suggestion: Generals, Obey My Command, Array the Thunder Department! Difficulty: Extremely High. Reward: 16% Roleplay Completion!】

【...】

Watching the suggestions proposed by the viewers during the broadcast, Lin Nan couldn't help but admire the imagination of his fans.

Some even suggested that Lin Nan build the Heavenly Court, meet the Jade Emperor, or even strike Mount Ling with lightning, causing Lin Nan's mouth to twitch.

"Strike Mount Ling? Are they trying to get me killed?"

Just then, a bullet chat that stood in stark contrast to these suggestions caught Lin Nan's eye, immediately grabbing his attention.

Upon reading it carefully, it was clearly a petition, and the tone was extremely earnest.

"I heard this streamer can make it rain? Streamer, our place has been in a drought for a long time, can you bring some rain?"

"I came here after seeing the news. My grandmother's land in my hometown is dying from the drought this year. Streamer, please make it rain."

"Great Immortal, could you please try?"

As these comments appeared, the other viewers in the livestream were stunned and began to joke

"Good grief, people are actually praying for rain in a livestream?"

"Buddy, not to be rude, but if you want rain, you should go to a Dragon King temple!"

"You don't actually think the streamer is a god, do you?"

With the fans' teasing, the livestream was filled with a lighthearted atmosphere.

However, the next words from this viewer caused the rest of the room to fall silent.

The man's words were filled with bitterness and helplessness as he continued

"We've tried everything... we've tried every method, but nothing works!"

"Our Nanjiao hasn't seen rain for over a month, and the land is parched beyond recognition."

"We are truly at our wits' end. It's as if the heavens are driving us into a dead end!"

Seeing the man's sorrowful plea, the viewers who had just been joking fell silent.

"Nanjiao..."

Seeing the location mentioned by the viewer, Jiang Tao seemed to recall something and whispered

"I saw a video before saying that the drought in Nanjiao City is indeed very severe, with over three million mu of farmland unable to be sown due to the heavy drought."

"And because it hasn't rained for a long time, the surface temperature remains at around 40°C. It's clear the situation is quite bad."

As Jiang Tao finished speaking, even Wang Chengyu dropped his smile and clicked his tongue, feeling a sense of heartache.

"It really isn't easy. After all, farmers rely on the weather; if it doesn't rain, they won't even have food to eat..."

"But, if they come to our livestream to pray for rain, what can we actually do?"

Just as the atmosphere in the livestream became delicate, gradually shrouded by a heavy pressure, a steady and magnetic voice rang out. It was Lin Nan, speaking slowly to offer comfort

"Above, I observe the Great Dao of the Heavenly Heart; below, I aid the suffering in the underworld. As long as you pray with sincerity, you shall receive your harvest..."

As Lin Nan's words fell, Wang Chengyu, Jiang Tao, and the viewers in the room were not surprised.

They simply took it as the streamer providing spiritual solace and did not think much of it.

Watching the number of people entering the livestream to pray for rain gradually increase, seemingly pinning their elusive hopes on him, the other viewers couldn't help but sigh.

...

After streaming for a while, the atmosphere in the room still struggled to liven up.

When the stream ended, Wang Chengyu and Jiang Tao remarked with some emotion

"Sigh, after all, in a livestream of this type, combined with Brother Nan being so lifelike—it's like a temple statue come to life. In the future, there will definitely be people coming to petition when they encounter real hardships."

"Actually, they know this stuff isn't real, that it's just superstition, but it's like praying to gods and Buddhas—they're just looking for psychological comfort."

"Yeah, what was that saying? I have an education and know there are no ghosts or gods in this world, but when I saw her in the hospital bed, I actually felt the desperation to kneel and cry to the gods for protection."

"But even if we want to help, we are powerless..."

"Let's just adjust our mindset as soon as possible and try not to be easily affected."

The two men's helpless conversation reached Lin Nan's ears, but he did not respond. At this moment, he was searching for information online.

He searched for the Nanjiao City mentioned by that viewer, and what met his eyes was the current drought situation.

However, as Lin Nan scrolled through, another piece of news caught his eye.

In ancient times, Nanjiao City was known as Luyi, and there was a local legend about a black deer offering treasures.

"A black deer...?"

Lin Nan muttered to himself, a glint gradually appearing in his eyes.
