Lan Mu never thought that he would become the legendary Nine-Tailed Arctic Fox.
Although he only had the appearance of a fox, he exuded a soul-stirring charm.
Just by standing on top of the mountain and facing the wind with the nine tails dancing in the wind, he exuded an otherworldly temperament.
"This energy …"
Lan Mu realized that he was using his tails to absorb the moonlight. The moonlight's energy was stored in the middle tail.
"Only this tail can absorb the moonlight. What are the other eight tails for? Are they good-looking? "
Lan Mu couldn't figure it out. He looked at the mist that he condensed with a thought.
The mist was originally scattered around him, but under his control, it gathered into a water mirror.
With another thought, the mist dispersed and became invisible again.
"I really became a monster? Is this really the mythical Nine-Tailed Arctic Fox? "
Lan Mu finally accepted this reality. He never thought that he could even transform into a mythical creature.
The Nine-Tailed Fox had existed since ancient times. There were legends of the Nine-Tailed Fox in various East Asian cultures. This kind of strange beast that looked like both a demon and an immortal was described in ancient books of China, Japan, and Korea.
Even small countries in Southeast Asia and India had related records. But no matter where the myth came from, the description of the Nine-tailed Fox was basically the same.
In the beginning, the Nine-tailed Fox was an immortal beast. It could be said that, "When the world is peaceful, it is an auspicious sign." It was an auspicious sign for a country's prosperity and a wise emperor.
Then, in the Song Dynasty and even later, it was gradually demonized and became a demon fox. It represented the birth of foxes and was a term for seduction. It spread to countries all over the world.
But no matter what, the Nine-tailed Fox was a symbol of East Asian culture. No matter who you asked, they would imagine the image of a peerless beauty.
"But … I'm a man!"
Lan Mu was speechless. He was in a mess in the wind.
It was fine that he became an elf, but how did he become a Nine-tailed Fox? Did he want to go out and charm people?
"Legend has it that the Nine-tailed Fox is good at transforming into human form. It usually appears in the image of various people in the world."
"How do I change?"
He saw a Nine-tailed Fox hopping on the top of the mountain, its tail sweeping through the forest, leaving the soil and stones untouched.
It was as if there was a thin layer of air barrier blocking the dust, making this white fox spotless and always maintaining its gorgeous white fur.
Nine-tailed Fox's body was not small, it was the size of a dog. If it stretched out its huge tail, its total length would be about 4 meters, with its tail taking up 2.8 meters.
He was suddenly wrapped up by nine tails and turned into a white furry ball.
When the tail was unfurled, where was the white fox? There was a young man lying quietly on the rock. He was completely naked, and his skin was smooth and white.
However, that wasn't all. The nine tails were still swaying on his buttocks, and the hair was tickling him.
"Damn … You can't change your tail?"
Lan Mu tossed and turned for a long time, but he still didn't know how to put away his huge tails. When the nine tails were gathered together, they were much bigger than him. They fluttered behind him like a fluttering snow-white dress.
His ears flicked twice, and when he reached out to touch them, Lan Mu was in despair.
Not only could he not put away his tails, even the furry fox's ears were perked up and could move from time to time.
With a wave of his hand, the fog gathered and turned into a mirror. Lan Mu looked at his own appearance and sighed.
"My transformation is too lousy. This is clearly a monster!"
Lan Mu's appearance in the mirror was still his appearance, but his eyes were scarlet, his short hair was scattered, two fox ears poked out of his black hair, and behind him were nine huge tails.
It was clearly his own appearance, but his temperament was completely different. He exuded an amazing charm from inside out, and his every move had a temptation that tugged at one's heartstrings.
"Sigh …"
Lan Mu sighed and knelt on the ground. His body bent forward in disappointment, and his heart was like dead ashes.
"With this kind of transformation, it doesn't make a difference whether I transform or not."
"And this time the transformation is more than a day later than the last time, a full eight days before the transformation. After the seven-day mandatory period is over, Fang Moqi should have left."
"It seems that I can't keep the appointment … If I enter Kuala Lumpur like this, I'm afraid I'll shock the world, right?"
Lan Mu stroked his huge tails, and there was nothing he could do.
If he only had the beast ears, he could still cover it up, but with these nine big tails, was he cosplaying?
Lan Mu could only accept his fate and decided to endure the seven-day mandatory period in the mountains.
"I've had enough of this transformation … Next time, transform into a more domineering one, okay?"
He couldn't help but complain a little, but then he heard a baby-like voice speaking.
This child's voice was clear and ethereal, and the sound directly hit the bottom of his heart, echoing on the top of the mountain.
Although it could speak human language, Lan Mu was too lazy to complain after hearing this voice.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, hugged his nine big tails, and studied them since he had nothing better to do.
A few hours passed quickly, and the moon had already set, followed by the morning sun.
After absorbing the moonlight for an entire night, as soon as the sunlight came out, his fourth tail instinctively danced.
Different from the coolness of the moonlight, a scorching energy poured into his body and finally settled in his tail.
"So sunlight can be absorbed?"
After studying for an entire night, Lan Mu's thoughts were suddenly enlightened.
"So the fourth tail absorbs solar energy … Then I don't know what the other three are …"
Lan Mu studied himself and found that all of the Nine-tailed Fox's abilities came from his tails.
The first tail represented transformation, and he could transform himself into anyone. In theory, it could be passed off as real, but he relied on his instincts. His transformation ability wasn't good enough, so he couldn't transform into fox ears and tails. As a result, he could only maintain the appearance of a monster often seen in TV dramas.
The second tail was pure illusion. As for its specific use, he still couldn't figure it out. It could only instinctively give him the ability to bewitch people. For example, he could charm a clouded leopard to obediently lie beside him and become a docile pet.
The third tail was his ability to control fog. He could make fog surround his body. At most, he could make the fog so thick that it blocked his vision. He could even control it at will, but it had no offensive power. When all of it was gathered together, it was just a puddle of water.
The fourth tail was to absorb solar energy, but he didn't know what use it had for storing it in his tail. Until now, Lan Mu hadn't figured out how to use solar energy.
The fifth tail was the same. It absorbed the moonlight and stored it. Other than a cool feeling, it had no other damn use.
The sixth tail was powerful. It could wrap his body in a thin layer of force field, isolating him from external objects. Not only did it have the effect of dispelling dust, but it could also protect him. However, its defensive ability was a little weak. If he used the arrow to stab himself, it would still pierce his skin and leave a white mark.
If he was shot by a heavy crossbow, he would still be injured, let alone a gun.
As for the remaining three tails, he didn't find any use at all. It was as if they were purely there to act cute.
The sun slowly rose. The top of the mountain was always exposed to the scorching sun. Lan Mu had the protection of the force field of the sixth tail, so he didn't have to worry about getting sunburned at all.
He calmly absorbed solar energy the whole day. It didn't end until dusk approached.
Looking at the setting sun, he stood up and stretched lazily, feeling as if he had just woken up from a nap.
"Could this be cultivating by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon? It feels good. I'm not tired at all. I can't feel the passage of time … "
"But … I'm actually hungry?"
After basking in the sun for a day, he felt lazy from the inside out. However, Lan Mu was surprised to find that his stomach was empty. He felt hungry.
"Am I not an immortal beast? Even if I'm a demon … I shouldn't be hungry, right? "
"So I have to eat to cultivate … This …"
Lan Mu didn't know what he wanted to eat. He could only run down the mountain to look for food in the jungle.
However, he habitually jumped off the rock and ran up the steep cliff, forgetting that he was not a white-haired lion now.
"Ah!"
Lan Mu fell awkwardly and rolled down the mountain. He didn't have the elegance of a white-haired lion at all.
He once again experienced the fear of falling down the cliff. His body rolled, knocking against rocks and branches. His tail instinctively curled into a ball to protect himself.
When he landed, he was dizzy and disoriented. His white skin was full of scars and there were slight abrasions in some places.
"Fortunately, the force field of the sixth tail protected me. Otherwise, I would definitely have broken bones and tendons."
The protection of the sixth tail was quite strong. After falling for so long, he didn't have any major injuries.
However, he was soon annoyed and thought gloomily.
"Why am I so weak? Am I still a demon? Is there such a weak demon? "
"You don't have strength, speed, or anything else. Do you only have good looks? Is it an ornamental demon? "
Then Lan Mu thought about it. Maybe it's because I transformed into a human. When I transformed into a human, I also inherited the weakness of humans.
Thinking of this, Lan Mu canceled his transformation and turned back into a Nine-tailed Fox. A handsome big fox came into the forest.
Sure enough, a fox's body was much more agile than a human's. After all, it was an animal form and was more suitable for the natural environment. A human's body had degenerated and was not suitable for moving unhindered in the forest.
If he had gone down the mountain in his animal form, he wouldn't have fallen all the way down. He would definitely be more agile than a human.
"Tapir? I see another tapir. No appetite. Not eating! "
"Snake? So fancy. So disgusting. Not eating! "
"Deer? No appetite either. Not eating. "
"Bullfrog? Damn! Get away from me! "
Lan Mu strolled in the forest and ran around, but he couldn't find what he wanted to eat.
In order to find something to eat, Lan Mu purely followed his instincts. As long as his body didn't have an appetite, he would be picky.
In this way, he wandered through the forest near the foot of the mountain and met all kinds of animals. Finally, he found the prey that his heart desired.
"Bird … So I wanted to eat a bird …"
Lan Mu used all four of his limbs to climb up a big tree and slowly approached a bird's nest. There were a few little ones inside and an unknown bird the size of a sparrow was perched on a branch.
However, as soon as Lan Mu approached, the bird became alert. It screeched and flapped its wings to fly up and protect the nest.
Lan Mu moved horizontally and directly pounced on it, but the bird dodged.
He held a small bird in the nest in his mouth and landed on the ground.
Ignoring the big bird's screeching, Lan Mu wrapped his furry tail and decisively ran away.
When he stopped to spit out the small bird, the small bird had already been instinctively sucked dry by him and became a corpse.
Looking at the corpse again, he had already lost his appetite.
"Damn … I originally only wanted to drink blood …"
The bird was too small. Lan Mu only drank a small mouthful of blood and relied on this hunting efficiency. Lan Mu wanted to cry.
At this time, a pheasant with colorful feathers appeared in his field of vision.
Nine-Tailed Fox's surging thirst came again!
Lan Mu pounced on it, but who knew that the male pheasant was powerful and domineering. It stared at him and pecked at him. Its wings also flapped, allowing him to fly at a low altitude, appearing extremely powerful.
Not only that, but a few more pheasants rushed out from the forest. Lan Mu was pecked a few times. Even with the protection of the forcefield, he still felt pain.
He vaguely felt that he couldn't win in a direct confrontation! He could only turn around and run.
"Nine-Tailed Fox! Nine-Tailed Fox … "
"Are you really a demonic beast? How come you can't even hunt? "
However, he ran, but the pheasants didn't let him go. They actually angrily chased after him.
Lan Mu was angry. No matter what, I'm still a demonic beast! Even a pheasant dares to bully me?
You really don't think of me as a demon?
The second tail slightly waved. Lan Mu stopped running and squatted in place, facing the pheasants.
He saw the pheasants rush over aggressively, but they suddenly became docile. They looked at Nine-Tailed Fox with infatuation and slowly approached.
"So it's not relying on its claws to hunt … it's using its skills …"
Lan Mu thought about it and became obedient. He bit on the neck of a pheasant, sucked a mouthful, and let it fall to the ground and die.
After repeating this, all the pheasants were sucked dry of their essence blood.
As for Lan Mu, he only drank a bit of blood and immediately stopped. He had no desire for meat.
However, Lan Mu didn't feel satisfied after sucking so little blood. He felt that these things were too low level and he couldn't drink enough.
"I feel like I won't be full even if I drink a ton of blood …"
"This shouldn't be Nine-Tailed Fox's real food …"
"God … what should I eat?"
