New Monster! Hundred-Tailed Serpent Fox

In the dim, chaotic space, currents of chaos surged as if they would never cease. Unlike the boundless, empty System Space from before, it had changed considerably now.

High in the distant sky, at a height that could only be looked up at, stood an incomparably enormous phantom. It had a dragon's head and a demonic body, willow-branch-like arms constantly waving, with dragon eyes of vertical pupils flickering across them. A cape formed from shadows swayed behind it, its hem seemingly submerged in darkness. Its true appearance could not be seen clearly, and flickering, unstable eyes of terror occasionally appeared.

The Primordial Demon God's breathing had reached a strange synchronization with the flow of chaotic currents in the space. Beneath the terrifying demon god's body swayed a boundless sea, pitch-black, like black sesame porridge.

Chaos Sea!

A Chaos Sea had already emerged within the consciousness space, and most of the Primordial Demon God's body was hidden beneath that dark ocean.

It reminded Su Ziyu of the famous iceberg theory.

The visible portion of an iceberg was merely a corner of the whole, while its true body remained buried beneath the sea.

The Primordial Demon God was very likely the same.

It was impossible to imagine just how massive a body it would drag out when it truly rose from the Chaos Sea.

After calming himself slightly, Su Ziyu looked at the colorful materials floating in the air.

Besides [A Wisp of the Unifier of All Things' Phantom Aura (Five-Star)], [Rootless Tendrils (Three-Star)], and [Cursed Black Soul (Four-Star)], several new materials had been added.

They were:

[Calamity Serpent Tail (Three-Star): A material obtained from cultists of the Calamity Serpent Society. They worshipped the Sea God and gained the power of the ocean. The Sea God was also known as the Sea Serpent God and the Goddess of Calamity. It was said that fishing boats that did not worship the Sea God often encountered storms and extreme weather at sea, ultimately being buried in the ocean. It contained the power of calamity and was a decent material.]

[Enchanting Faceless Demon Fox's Corpse (Three-and-a-Half-Star): An advanced creation of a Morning Star Tier Alchemist. It used a Snow Mountain Solitary Fox as its core vessel, stuffed with the spirits of one hundred women, then refined through Alchemy. It possessed the strength of the Morning Star Initial Stage from birth and had tremendous growth potential. A decent vessel material!]

[Jester's Grotesque Smile (Three-Star): Originated from the professional smiles of priests and believers of the Grotesque Cult. As cultists who worshipped the Mother of the Grotesque, their smiles could trigger negative emotions such as panic, fear, and irritability in humans. If used properly, it was a decent material!]

After sorting everything out, there were six materials above Three-Star left in the System Space: [A Wisp of the Unifier of All Things' Phantom Aura (Five-Star)], [Rootless Tendrils (Three-Star)], [Calamity Serpent Tail (Three-Star)], [Cursed Black Soul (Four-Star)], [Enchanting Faceless Demon Fox's Corpse (Three-and-a-Half-Star)], and [Jester's Grotesque Smile (Three-Star)].

Of course, there were still quite a few miscellaneous materials below Three-Star, such as Sea Serpent corpses and Sea Serpent organs, but Su Ziyu was already somewhat dismissive of these Two-Star materials.

Using those materials for editing might even lower the system's rating, especially when he had a Five-Star material.

Su Ziyu thought it would be better to find a place to sell off these low-level materials and save himself the trouble.

Once he was prepared, Su Ziyu opened his eyes again. Darkness had already occupied his pupils as he floated into the air once more. The ground at the center trembled, and the Hundred-Eyed Furnace obediently rose up like an erupting volcano.

With a wave of his hand, the orb of [A Wisp of the Unifier of All Things' Phantom Aura (Five-Star)] flew over and slowly dropped into the furnace. It was immediately covered by Creation Magma, which began bubbling with gurgling sounds.

The Unifier of All Things' aura was a tiny glowing sphere. Seen from different angles, it showed different sides, and its brilliance was as dazzling as the sun. If not for being inside the System Space, staring directly at it would likely injure one's eyes.

With a splash, the glowing sphere mixed with the Creation Magma. The Unifier of All Things' aura immediately dissolved, dyeing the magma into a glittering gold, like an ocean illuminated by sunlight.

Then Su Ziyu waved his hand again and added the Enchanting Faceless Demon Fox's corpse!

However, because of Ruan Xiaoqi's mischievousness, the corpse had lost its tail. As it was enveloped by the glowing Creation Magma, golden bubbles seeped into every cell.

Once every inch of the Faceless Ghost Fox's corpse had been stained with the Unifier of All Things' aura, Su Ziyu waved his hand again and added [Rootless Tendrils (Three-Star)], [Jester's Grotesque Smile (Three-Star)], and over a hundred [Calamity Serpent Tails (Three-Star)] in succession.

The Rootless Tendrils transformed into bones, supporting the Faceless Ghost Fox's shriveled body. The Calamity Serpent Tails surged in crazily by the clump, scrambling to occupy the Faceless Ghost Fox's body. Yet after being infused by the Creation Magma and the Unifier of All Things' aura, only ninety-nine tails remained capable of moving!

It seemed some kind of law was at work. The rules of creation and the heavenly order could not be defied. Ninety-nine serpent tails occupied the Faceless Ghost Fox's rear, becoming its tails and swaying one after another. Snake heads even evolved at their tips, as if snakes had grown from its tails. They still lacked expressions, however, and that was when [Jester's Grotesque Smile] came into play.

It covered the ends of the serpent tails, forming strange and bizarre expressions on each of them. They were clearly snakes, yet they wore grotesque expressions resembling human faces. The sight alone sent chills down one's spine.

The bones transformed from the Rootless Tendrils were also tempered by the Creation Magma until they shone with a golden luster.

The Faceless Ghost Fox stood up again and threw back its head with a roar and a shriek. Its ninety-nine tails swayed at once, while the bizarre snake heads at their tips made all sorts of horrifying expressions that wore away at the mind.

A stream of Creation Magma flowed toward the Faceless Ghost Fox's tail. The sole remaining Rootless Tendril suddenly shot out from between the ninety-nine tails, wrapped itself in Creation Magma, and became an even longer tail. At its very tip appeared a grotesque smile resembling that of a human.

At that moment, the Hundred-Tailed Serpent Fox was born!

"Roar!"

"Hiss—"

All the eyes of the Hundred-Eyed Furnace widened round as it released streams of white vapor, contracting inward and turning into a flesh cocoon.
