There's still some time before the mystery of the sixth Dragon Ball is revealed.

However, the comment section under the official Weibo account of the Land of Light was already bustling with activity.

"Just two left! Give it your all, brothers! Victory is in sight!"

"I have a feeling the rewards for these last two Dragon Balls will be absolutely amazing! Guangda, stop holding back, just drop them already!"

"Speaking of which, the five Dragon Ball hunters, each holding one ball, are scattered across the country. How will their final wish be granted? They can't just have a video conference to get all seven balls together and shout it out, can they?"

"Hiss... Now that you mention it, it's terrifying to think about! Could it be... there will eventually be an offline final gathering ceremony? Or... will cooperation be needed? Or even competition?"

"Holy crap! The ultimate offline showdown? Let's fight! (Grab a stool!)"

"Liu Feng, Li Mubai, Lin Wei, Chen Yu, and Gu Yu—these five are now treasure-hunting heroes with their own built-in fanbases, and they also have the implicit support of their respective city's cultural and tourism bureaus. If they were to get together, the scene would be...exciting!"

"Everbright is playing a long game! From individual heroism to city-wide battles, is it now heading towards the ultimate showdown?"

"So, with two points to our name, Shanghai is invincible!"

The speculations among netizens are getting increasingly outrageous.

Everyone wants to know in what form this sixth puzzle will appear.

At noon, the official Weibo account of the Land of Light updated, down to the second.

[#FindingDragonBallsNationwideWishAdventure#TheGuidanceOfTheSixthDragonBall]

[Corresponds to the first star of the Big Dipper: Tian Shu (Greedy Wolf Star)]

[Mainly desires, opportunities, and variables]

The guidelines are as follows:

"

I was born in chaos, yet I illuminate the path of civilization.

I devour darkness, yet give birth to the light of life.

I am in heaven, and I am also on earth.

I am in the past, and I am in the future.

I am both the beginning and the end.

I am one, and I am also ten thousand.

Greedy Wolf asked me: What are you?

I answered: I am—

"Find the seventh star in my embrace."

To everyone's surprise, the riddle turned out to be a serious poem with hidden meanings!

"Waaaaah... Guangda finally stopped being a riddle-maker? They actually provided such a long, serious text explanation! It brings back so many memories!"

"Perhaps they felt they'd tormented us too much with the wind, pictures, and audio puzzles, so they had a change of heart, lowered the difficulty, and went back to traditional word puzzles?"

"The referee himself intervened on the court to control the score, that's for sure! Guangda, you're such a nice guy!"

"Wait a minute! You call this lowering the difficulty? This is even harder to understand than abstract art and the sound of the wind! It's all metaphysical metaphors!"

"I was born in chaos, yet I illuminate the path of civilization—this is clearly the sun! Creating heaven and earth, illuminating the world!"

"I devour darkness, yet give birth to the light of life—the sun dispels darkness, bringing light and vitality; it makes sense!"

"I am in heaven, and I am also on earth—the sun is in the sky, and its rays shine upon the world, no problem!"

"I am in the past, and I am in the future—the sun has existed since time immemorial and will shine forever, that's right!"

"I am both the beginning and the end—the sun rising marks the beginning of a day, and setting marks its end, so be it!"

"I am one, and I am all—there is only one sun, but its energy nourishes all things; it is perfect!"

"Case solved! The answer is the sun! The Star of Greed asked the sun! The Dragon Ball is inside the sun! (doge)"

"God is in the sun! Why don't you just go to heaven?! The Land of Light can't possibly put the Dragon Balls on the sun?"

"Then...could it be a city or place related to the character 'sun'? Like Rizhao?"

"Or perhaps it's the remains of an ancient civilization that worshipped the sun? Like the sun bird from the Jinsha Site?"

"The scope is still too broad... and I always feel that if the answer is really the sun, it seems... a bit too straightforward? It doesn't fit Guangda's consistently tricky style."

While ordinary netizens were debating the sun.

The five hunters who had successfully found the Dragon Balls were now each lost in deeper thought.

They knew that the mystery of the Land of Light could not possibly be so simple.

A luxury apartment in Shanghai.

Liu Feng sat in front of the computer in his study, the puzzle displayed on the screen.

The two-star object that was once found atop the Oriental Pearl Tower rests quietly on the table.

Under the lights, the two red stars inside the Dragon Ball seem to be slowly rotating.

After becoming the first Dragon Ball Hunter, his life changed dramatically, his fan base exploded, and he received a constant stream of offers.

But he remained calm throughout.

He knew that the root of all this lay in the ability to continuously demonstrate value.

He repeatedly read that passage aloud to himself.

"The sun... seems reasonable, but it's too superficial."

He muttered to himself.

"Swallowing darkness? The sun shines light to dispel darkness, it doesn't devour it."

His gaze refocused on the poem:

"Born of chaos, illuminating civilization..."

"Eating darkness, giving birth to life..."

"Heaven, Earth, Past, Future, Beginning, End, One, Ten Thousand..."

These images collided and reassembled in his mind.

Suddenly, an image that is closer to the essence of human civilization jumped out!

"fire!"

He blurted it out, his eyes suddenly lighting up!

It was fire! By drilling wood to make fire, humanity truly bid farewell to ignorance and embarked on civilization!

Fire can devour darkness and cold, bringing light and warmth, allowing humans to cook food, defend against wild animals, and foster a more stable continuation of life!

Fire is in the sky (ignited by lightning), and even more so on earth (hearth fire, bonfire)!

Fire has been a constant throughout human history, from the past to the future!

Fire is the beginning of civilization, but it can also bring about destruction!

Fire is a phenomenon, yet it can evolve into countless forms and functions!

The logic chain is instantly connected!

Liu Feng felt a surge of excitement.

But he immediately calmed down.

If it is fire, then find the seventh star in my embrace...

Where is the embrace of fire?

Where, then, can one find the stars?

A university dormitory in Xi'an.

Li Mubai stared at his phone screen, with the five-pointed star he had discovered beside him.

The dormitory was very quiet.

His other roommates were either out on dates or in the library, leaving him with an excellent space to think.

The feeling of becoming a campus celebrity was novel at first, but now he is even more eager to prove himself again.

"The sun? No, wait..."

He frowned.

The sun emits light and heat through nuclear fusion, not by swallowing up darkness.

He tried to incorporate the concept of fire.

fire!

That's right!

Flames burn, consuming fuel and releasing light and heat, thus giving birth to the light of life.

—To keep warm and cook food!

Fire was the first sun that humankind truly controlled!

Li Mubai clenched his fist excitedly.

Suirenshi invented fire by drilling wood, marking the dawn of Chinese civilization!

By preserving the flame, civilization can continue!

This is just the beginning!

Fire can destroy everything; this is the end!

He stood up and paced around the cramped dormitory room.

The embrace of fire... Where is the embrace of fire?

Torch? Flame? Stove?

Or... a place to preserve the fire?

The seventh star... the seventh Dragon Ball is the Seven Star.

However, the seventh star mentioned here may refer to the Dragon Ball.

It could also refer to the seventh star of the Big Dipper, Yao Guang, or something else... It needs to be considered in conjunction with the location.
