New Monster! Hundred-Tailed Serpent Fox

In the dim, chaotic space, currents of chaos surged as though they would never cease. Unlike before, when it had been boundless and empty, the System Space had changed considerably.

High in the distant sky, at a height that could only be viewed by looking up, stood an incomparably enormous phantom. It had a dragon's head and a demonic body, willow-branch-like arms constantly waving, with vertical dragon eyes flashing across them. A cloak formed from shadows billowed behind it, its hem seeming to sink into darkness, obscuring its true appearance. From time to time, flickering eyes of terror could be seen.

The Primordial Demon God's breathing and the flow of chaotic currents through the space shifted in an eerily synchronized rhythm. Beneath the body of that terrifying demon god rippled a boundless ocean, pitch-black and resembling black sesame porridge.

Chaos Sea!

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

It reminded Su Ziyu of the famous iceberg theory.

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

The Primordial Demon God was likely the same.

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

After steadying 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): Material obtained from cultists of the Calamity Serpent Society, an evil cult. They worship the Sea God and gain the power of the ocean. The Sea God is also known as the Sea Serpent God and the Goddess of Calamity. It is said that fishing boats that do not worship the Sea God often encounter storms and extreme weather at sea, ultimately perishing in the ocean. Contains the power of calamity and is a decent material.]

[Enchanting Faceless Demon Fox Corpse (Three-and-a-Half-Star): An advanced creation of a Morning Star Tier alchemist. Using a Snow Mountain Solitary Fox as its core vessel, one hundred female spirits were stuffed into it and refined through Alchemy. It possessed the strength of the Morning Star Initial Stage from birth and had tremendous growth potential. A fine vessel material!]

[Jester’s Grotesque Smile (Three-Star): Derived from the professional smiles of priests and believers of the Grotesque Cult. As cultists who worship the Mother of the Grotesque, their smiles can induce negative emotions in humans, such as panic, fear, and rage. If used properly, it is a decent material!]

After sorting through them, there were six materials of three-star rank or above 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 Corpse (Three-and-a-Half-Star)], and [Jester’s Grotesque Smile (Three-Star)].

Of course, there were still plenty of miscellaneous materials below three-star rank, such as sea serpent corpses and sea serpent organs, but Su Ziyu was already beginning to look down on these two-star materials.

Using these materials for editing might even lower the system's rating, especially when he had a five-star material.

Su Ziyu thought he might as well find somewhere to sell these low-grade materials and save himself the trouble.

Once he was ready, Su Ziyu opened his eyes again. Darkness had already filled 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 beckoning gesture, the orb of [A Wisp of the Unifier of All Things' Phantom Aura (Five-Star)] flew over and slowly fell into the furnace. It was immediately covered by Creation Magma, which began bubbling.

The Unifier of All Things' aura was a tiny glowing sphere. Viewed from different angles, it revealed different sides, and its radiance was as dazzling as the sun. If not for being inside the System Space, staring directly at it could 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 a brilliant gold, like an ocean illuminated by sunlight.

Then Su Ziyu beckoned again and added the Enchanting Faceless Demon Fox's corpse!

However, because of Ruan Xiaoqi's mischief, the corpse no longer had a tail. As it was enveloped in glowing Creation Magma, golden bubbles seeped into every cell.

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

The Rootless Tendrils transformed into bones, supporting the Faceless Demon Fox's shriveled body. Meanwhile, clusters of Calamity Serpent Tails surged in madly, fighting to occupy the Faceless Demon Fox's body. Yet after being steeped in Creation Magma and the Unifier of All Things' aura, only ninety-nine remained capable of moving!

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

It covered the tips of the serpent tails, forming bizarre and uncanny expressions. 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 Rootless Tendrils were also tempered by the Creation Magma until they gleamed with a golden luster.

The Faceless Demon Fox stood up once more, raising its head to release a howl and a piercing shriek. Its ninety-nine tails swayed at once, while the bizarre snake heads at their tips displayed all manner of terrifying expressions that gnawed at the mind.

Stream-like Creation Magma flowed to the Faceless Demon Fox's rear. The sole remaining Rootless Tendril suddenly shot out from between the ninety-nine tails, wrapped itself in Creation Magma, and turned into an even longer tail. At its tip appeared a grotesque smile resembling that of a human.

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

"Roar!"

"Hiss—"

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