Chapter 783: 650, Gu Rong's likes exceed 100 million, angrily gaining 50 million fans_1
Gu Rong now was absolutely terrified to check his private messages.
Because he found his inbox had exploded, with unread messages continuously climbing!
Of course, the number of his followers on the backend was also skyrocketing, and this was the fastest growth in follower count so far, aside from Lin Yi.
Gu Rong didn't speak, but his mood grew increasingly excited. His follower count quickly broke through the one million mark, followed by two million, three million...
Eventually, when the growth rate slowed, Gu Rong's follower count had reached fifty million!
What a terrifying number.
Gu Rong silently sat on the ground, staring blankly at the backend. He never imagined that such a short video could attract so many fans; it was simply too exaggerated.
Could it be that all these fifty-plus million fans were middle-aged and elderly women?
Just then, Gu Rong fleetingly glanced at an avatar, and the user behind this avatar had sent him a private message.
"Time of Tranquility": Hello, I'm 86 this year, may I visit you in Soul City? Handsome boy? However, my legs aren't very convenient, so I might be delayed on the road. Can you wait for me?
Gu Rong twitched the corner of his mouth.
He had just seen the avatar of a gray-haired old person, which is why he had opened this private message.
Exaggerated... Far too exaggerated.
Gu Rong's hands trembled. Principle told him he should respond to this elder's message, but reason told him he shouldn't.
At such an old age, could an unrequited love be the death of her...
After thinking it over, Gu Rong still decided he should respond with something.
"Bone Douluo": Hello, sister, you are of such an advanced age, it would be better not to come over. What if something happens on the way? And besides, it is not possible between us...
"Time of Tranquility": I
The old lady replied with a message quickly, but it was only one word, and then there was no follow-up.
Gu Rong furrowed his brow and waited for a moment, only to suddenly find that the old lady's avatar had turned to gray!
Gu Rong's eyes widened as he urgently asked Lin Yi, "Senior Lin Yi! What does it mean when an avatar turns to green?"
Because he needed to lie with every sentence, Gu Rong could only refer to the gray as green, but he knew Lin Yi would understand what he meant.
Lin Yi did understand because avatars could only turn gray.
"When an avatar turns gray, there are two possibilities: one is that the Weibo account has been deleted, which needs twenty-four hours to complete. The second possibility is that the person has died, which causes the avatar to turn gray immediately."
Gu Rong silently stepped back a few steps.
It was clear that the grandma had not deleted her account, but had passed away!
Was it all because of what I just said?
Gu Rong suddenly felt he had committed a terrible sin. He should have not responded in the first place!
"Quick, look at the trending topics list!"
At that moment, Chen Xin shouted.
Trending topic number one: Bone Douluo gains fifty million followers in one hour! Video's popularity is off the charts!
Gu Rong was shocked once again.
Number one...
Number one, ah!
This is the hot search ranking that so many people dream of achieving!
At this very moment, a faint golden light began to emanate from his body, making him stand there, resplendent as if he were sublimated.
Soon, Gu Rong's face became younger, the white in his hair turned into strands of black, and his stature grew even more towering and robust.
When he released his Air Martial Soul and Soul Rings, what surprised everyone was that the first eight gold-level Soul Rings were all suffused with a faint red hue, while the last two gold-level Soul Rings were enveloped in an orange glow.
This change shocked Chen Xin even more.
It meant that his Air Martial Soul's first eight Soul Rings had all become hundred-thousand-year soul rings, and the last two had become million-year Soul Rings!
Gu Rong retracted his Air Martial Soul and once again released his original Martial Soul, the Steel Fire Dragon. To his astonishment, the volume of the original Martial Soul had doubled! Moreover, the flames within the skeleton were no longer blue-white but gold!
Besides, all nine Soul Rings of his Steel Fire Dragon had turned into red-level Soul Rings, all hundred-thousand-year!
Alone, Gu Rong now possessed seventeen hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings and two million-year Soul Rings, making him the biggest winner in the realm of Martial Souls on the scene, next to Bi Bidong!
Lin Yi, "The top spot on the hot search list always has some bonuses; if the social media engagement is too explosive, the bonus will be even more powerful. Your number one on the hot search is obviously the second most explosive since the platform's inception."
The most explosive was the first hot search when the platform was just launched, when Lin Yi taught a lesson to the three gods.
By now, Gu Rong glanced at his social media likes again, 100 million+.
Comments 30 million+.
Shares 50 million+.
Although the hot search wasn't the most explosive in history, this post's like count was indeed the highest in history without a doubt!
Moreover, Gu Rong discovered that not only his two Martial Souls had received benefits, but also his lifespan, among other things.
For instance, the Flame of the Steel Fire Dragon had transformed into ultimate fire, his strength had increased several-fold, and all aspects like speed and spiritual power had all improved.
However, Chen Xin noticed that Gu Rong didn't seem very happy as he stepped down from the stage with a look of dejection.
The thought that the old grandmother had died because of him, Gu Rong felt no joy from the rewards at all.
But now a problem arose, it was Sect Master Ning Lolita's turn to attack, but it seemed that Lolita Sect Master didn't really want Chen Xin's help with the attack.
Recalling what happened yesterday, it was because of Chen Xin's rudeness that Ning Lolita was sullen all night and didn't speak to anyone.
She really wanted to try to become a man again, but found that her original temperament had completely disappeared... This was also the reason why Ning Lolita was increasingly afraid to acknowledge Ning Rongrong.
Seeing the awkwardness between Chen Xin and the Sect Master, Gu Rong sighed and said, "Never mind, I will assist in the attack, just to test how much I have changed."
Ning Lolita's expression finally eased, while Chen Xin silently stepped back, a resigned look on his face.
Their relationship would never return to what it once was, all because of that damn pen!
Stepping onto the stage, Gu Rong didn't speak, but just gestured a "one" with his hand to his Sect Master, indicating for Ning Lolita to use only her first soul skill.
He didn't dare to guarantee the damage outcome this time, and to be on the safe side and to test the change of the original Martial Soul, Gu Rong decided to attack once more with the Steel Fire Dragon!
He stood there, his aura transformed dramatically.
Rings of soul rings rose from his body, all of them dazzling red soul rings.
In mid-air, a massive figure slowly emerged, a bright silver, towering skeleton was cast. Suddenly, intense golden flames erupted from the gaps in the bones!
