Listen to this, what’s going on! Meixue was surprised as she pinched her suddenly appearing ears, which were furry and soft, definitely not any kind of accessory, but real ears.
No, it’s not just that, there are other strange things!
Meixue reached out and touched the soft object floating behind her. It was a foreign object that clearly didn’t belong to her but had naturally become a part of her body—a tail.
And not just one, but two.
"Yunqi!" Realizing the significant changes in her body, Meixue mounted her little cloud and disappeared in a flash at the foot of Tiantai Mountain.
Soon, she arrived at a secluded stream and saw her reflection in the water.
Who is this peerless handsome youth? Meixue stared dumbfounded at her reflection in the water.
The reflection showed a mysterious youth with golden fox ears and a tail, with a face so beautiful it didn’t seem human, exuding a captivating charm that could enchant the world, a bewitching presence that could captivate all, regardless of age or gender.
Her skin was whiter than any human woman’s, her eyes clear and innocent, and her demeanor harmless and pitiable like a small animal. Even Meixue, who had long severed all emotional ties with the Great Wisdom Sword, felt a sense of being tempted by this youth.
Is this... me? Meixue reached out her hand.
The youth in the water also reached out his hand.
Meixue pinched her cheek.
The youth in the water also pinched his cheek.
Meixue’s ears twitched.
The youth’s ears in the water also twitched.
Meixue’s tail wagged.
The youth’s tail in the water also wagged.
Alright, despite Meixue’s reluctance to admit it, the youth in the water was indeed herself.
In other words, she had now become a young demon with golden fox ears and a fox tail. Meixue didn’t remember any fox demon in the fox demon clan looking like this, and perhaps in this world, only she would have such fox ears and a tail.
No, wait, it seems she had indeed heard about a fox with these characteristics from Qingqiu Jiuyue.
"Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox?" Meixue touched her ears and picked up her tail, reluctantly admitting that she might have indeed transformed into this kind of fox.
But she was a pure descendant of the Yan clan, how could she suddenly become a demon with the characteristics of a Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox, and even move from the Floating Mountain in the Eastern Sea to Tiantai Mountain?
Could it be... Meixue thought of the only person—or rather, dragon—who could possibly do this. Among all the people she had encountered, only it could accomplish such an incredible feat.
Then, why did it do this?
Meixue suddenly raised her head and looked at the deepest part of Tiantai Mountain, where the only forbidden area of Tiantai Mountain was located—the origin of its name, "Tiantai."
According to legend, anyone who climbed Tiantai could gain different insights and obtain a unique opportunity. Ten thousand years ago, climbing Tiantai was a grand event in the entire sea and mountain regions. Tiantai Mountain remains a major intersection of sea routes to this day, entirely due to its prosperity during that period.
However, thousands of years ago, the miraculous "Tiantai" was caught in a massive battle. The various forces trying to seize Tiantai inadvertently destroyed half of it, causing its power to shatter in the heavens and earth.
The damaged Tiantai could no longer bestow spiritual light or help people gain insights into their destinies. That battle could be considered a failure for everyone involved.
With the loss of the miraculous Tiantai, Tiantai Mountain, once renowned in the sea and mountain regions, began to decline rapidly. Now, few people know about the former glory of Tiantai.
The damaged Tiantai was sealed and became a relic for future generations to mourn, the only forbidden area of Tiantai Mountain. Over thousands of years, many have tried to restore Tiantai, but all attempts have failed.
The Tiantai that could bestow spiritual light and guide destiny has thus become a legend.
"Could it be... that I am supposed to climb Tiantai?" For Meixue, it didn’t matter whether Tiantai was damaged or not, as she simply wanted to climb it to complete the last blank spot on her Tiantai Mountain map.
The Great Wisdom Sword given to her by the Classic of Mountains and Seas had freed her from the nine hundred and ninety-nine entangled emotional ties, and she naturally had to give something in return. As the new master of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, traversing the sea and mountain regions and completing the Classic was a mission she had willingly undertaken.
"Then, I’ll give it a try. Maybe I can now." Meixue closed her eyes and began to sense the power of her new body.
Strength, immense, far surpassing her past self.
Speed, extremely fast, even faster than when she rode on her cloud.
Vitality, simply incredible, it was...
Immortal techniques, seventeen in total, with a complete set of offensive, defensive, and supportive techniques, leaving no room for any flaws, perfect in every way, a genius among geniuses could not describe her current state.
However, there was something even more terrifying: innate supernatural abilities, which could not be learned no matter how much one studied, and were only awakened by a few lucky individuals favored by heaven—innate supernatural powers.
Unlike immortal techniques, which can be learned, analyzed, and spread, innate supernatural powers exist only in ancient demon clans and long-standing human noble families. They are said to be the manifestation of the laws of power left by great cultivators or immortals from ancient times in the bloodlines of their descendants, possessing numerous incredible abilities.
Commoners absolutely cannot awaken the power of supernatural abilities. All cultivators who have awakened supernatural abilities must have had ancestors who reached the pinnacle of cultivation, a fact that applies to both demon clans and humans.
Therefore, supernatural abilities are seen as proof of noble bloodlines, a legendary power in the sea and mountain regions. In the world of the sea and mountain regions, where immortals and Buddhas have perished and the Heavenly Dao is broken, any supernatural ability is an incredibly precious legacy, and those who have awakened supernatural abilities are considered the most noble bloodline in the sea and mountain regions.
They are the darlings of heaven, the only way to study the power sources of various great cultivators from ancient times, and they themselves gain combat abilities far beyond the norm due to awakening supernatural abilities.
More terrifyingly, supernatural abilities do not conflict with immortal techniques. Those who have awakened supernatural abilities can still cultivate immortal techniques, making them almost invincible in battles of the same level.
Do not easily provoke those with supernatural abilities; this is a consensus among all immortal technique cultivators in the sea and mountain regions. After all, many of the powers of supernatural abilities cannot be explained by common sense. If there were more people who could awaken supernatural abilities, the sea and mountain regions would have been ruled by them long ago.
So, when Meixue discovered the supernatural abilities she possessed, she was truly shocked.
Because this body possessed not just one, but multiple supernatural abilities!
The first supernatural ability (instinctive talent)—Magnetism: The Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox can easily tempt all beings with weak willpower, regardless of race, life, or death, and gender. This is a privilege unique to the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox, whose charm can even bewitch skeletons. When cultivated to the highest level, it can enchant the world and bewitch all beings.
The second supernatural ability—Mirror Flower, Water Moon: Flowers bloom in the mirror, the moon appears in the water, neither in the mirror nor in the water, seeming real yet illusory, like a dream. It can bewitch all things in the void, even the Heavenly Eye cannot capture the flowers in the mirror or the moon in the water. When this supernatural ability is activated, it can merge with various immortal techniques, creating countless transformations and allowing free movement between mirrors and flowers and the moon.
Just these two were enough to make one tremble, but Meixue saw even more.
The third supernatural ability, the fourth supernatural ability, the fifth supernatural ability... In this seemingly delicate body, there were actually nine different innate supernatural abilities.
Each supernatural ability corresponds to one of the nine tails of the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox. When all nine tails grow and all nine supernatural abilities are awakened, the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox will undergo a complete transformation, becoming a great demon that can rival immortals.
A world-enchanting demon, an unparalleled demoness—this is the complete form of the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox, the nine-tailed fox that can bewitch the world.
"Hmm... wait... an unparalleled demoness?" Meixue noticed something amiss. In the bloodline memory of the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox, there was no trace of any male existence.
This means that every generation of Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Foxes is female and possesses a beauty that surpasses human imagination.
This also aligns with Meixue’s memory. Qingqiu Jiuyue, despite her youthful appearance, already had the contours of a peerless beauty. In a few years, she would definitely become a beauty that could enchant the world, living up to her name as a Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox.
But what about her? Despite not having the bloodline of the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox, she had inherited this bloodline memory and possessed this body with the awakened supernatural abilities of the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox.
"Is this also the power of the Classic of Mountains and Seas?" For the first time, Meixue realized that she might have truly inherited something extraordinary. This was a more incredible and mysterious heavenly book than she had imagined, and there was probably no second copy in the entire sea and mountain regions.
Lifting her head, Tiantai Mountain no longer seemed mysterious to Meixue. The outline of Tiantai, located in the deepest part, was now faintly visible.
This was not an illusion, as she now possessed the power of the Golden-haired Jade-faced Nine-tailed Fox, the embodiment of a peerless great demon with nine innate supernatural abilities (even though she only had two tails).
She could go there now, break through all obstacles, and climb the mysterious Tiantai, completing the last blank spot on the Tiantai Mountain map.
She would climb Tiantai.
In the deepest part of Tiantai Mountain, shrouded in mist, on the damaged Tiantai, the broken jade stones began to emit a faint light. This was the last remaining spiritual light of Tiantai after the great calamity, waiting for the final person with a connection to it.
