247: Dog Demon

Da Quan Knight selected all the starting options.

The next moment, the scene before him went black.

When light reappeared, the first thing he saw was his own furry dog nose.

Shaking his head, he could see his furry chest and sharp claws.

Looking back, he immediately saw his tail wagging continuously.

"Wow!"

"I really became a Dog Demon!"

"So cool!!!"

Da Quan Knight howled excitedly.

Then, he looked around.

His birthplace was on a mountainside, surrounded by towering peaks, lush and verdant trees, the sound of the wind swirling, and the cries of birds and beasts.

"Is this the Xuanhuan World?"

Da Quan Knight blinked, not overly shocked by the visuals.

Because the Ancient Style Competition exports winning works every year, foreigners usually directly experience the excellent works that have been screened, unlike domestic players who try a little bit of everything.

Therefore, their standards for games were high from the start, which on one hand made their local game industry struggle, and on the other hand made it difficult for them to be shocked by game graphics.

Da Quan Knight moved his steps, beginning to explore the surrounding area.

Suddenly, he stopped, raised his head, and stared dumbfounded at the mountain peak.

Not only him, but the bullet comments in the live stream also froze instantly.

Everyone was stunned by the scene before them.

It turned out that a continuous range of mountains had been completely transformed into a gigantic dog head, with the towering, perilous peaks resembling sharp teeth.

Rugged bird paths and precipitous cliffs, these dangerous features all became part of the dog's head, and from its open mouth, a waterfall cascaded out, like a fierce dog drooling.

The surrounding soil also turned dark green, and an unbearable Qi for ordinary people solidified into a misty vapor, shrouding the dog's head, making it appear hazy and indistinct, like a dangerous, desolate land.

"This... this..."

Da Quan Knight opened his mouth, uttering a few syllables, but couldn't speak.

Not only him, but everyone else in the live stream was also stunned.

Including Da Quan Knight, many people from Western Country were actually 'cloud players' before, having watched videos of the Xuanhuan World in advance, and even seen the main peaks of Duan Kong Cave, Heshui Prefecture, and Qingling Sect, and even the Imperial City of Great Jiang.

Initially, they were indeed shocked, shocked beyond words.

But after playing the game themselves, their previous shock had raised their aesthetic standards.

Da Quan Knight originally thought that the visuals of the Xuanhuan World would no longer shock him.

However, after experiencing it firsthand, he realized that he was completely wrong.

They had indeed experienced various sceneries within the Human Race territory.

Many people had also released videos of the Western Great Desert.

But the North-South Mountains, only fully opened today, allowing a group of players to delve deep and examine the scenery within.

The scenery here was completely different from the Human Race's territory, unique and unconventional, leaving people dumbfounded.

"It seems the Yao Race's aesthetics are completely different from the Human Race's; they are accustomed to transforming mountains into their own shapes and then living within them."

Da Quan Knight mused thoughtfully.

The audience in the live stream was also astonished:

"Holy cow, is this thing considered architecture? Or a scenic spot?"

"Do the Yao Race usually live in places like this?"

"What strange aesthetics!"

Everyone discussed animatedly, all feeling a bit surprised.

Someone suggested that Da Quan Knight move closer for a detailed look.

Da Quan Knight complied, continuing to advance towards the giant dog head.

As he got closer, Da Quan Knight could see more details, which were also more complete, and he couldn't help but make an even stranger sound:

"Huh? It seems a bit different from how it looked from a distance?"

"Just now, it was farther away, and those fangs looked like they were carved out of mountain peaks, but now looking at them..."

"It seems they were originally fangs, just covered with a layer of mud and rock?"

Da Quan Knight found it a bit incredible. He moved closer again, observing carefully, and immediately became more confused.

"That's not right. I originally thought an entire mountain range was transformed like this."

"But look, at the forehead, this curve is clearly made up of many broken stones and mud, not a modified mountain peak."

"What's the meaning of this?"

"Could it be that the Yao Race didn't transform the mountain body, but rather hollowed out the mountain to make space, and then used Materials to piece together this sculpture?"

The audience in the live stream also discussed animatedly, all finding the Yao Race's architecture strange:

"I checked the official website forum, and some Chinese people shared that the Yao Race doesn't seem to be very good at construction, so perhaps their rough architecture is understandable?"

"Interesting, the Immortal Dynasty Human Race's constructions are one more magnificent and intricately structured than the last, while the Yao Race here just haphazardly pieces things together, aiming for a rough outline."

The differences in architectural styles between the Human Race and the Yao Race made the audience even more emotional.

The Xuanhuan World truly felt like a real world, where everything had a logic.

But just as everyone was exclaiming, Da Quan Knight froze in place, staring intently at the giant dog head sculpture.

"Do you feel it... this thing seems to be breathing?"

Waterfalls flowed from the dog's mouth, and a continuous stream of dark green Qi exhaled.

It looked as if it were truly alive.

But how could that be?

"Are you mistaken?"

"You should only be at the Mortal Realm now, without Spiritual Sense, so it's normal not to see clearly."

"Don't look anymore, go cultivate first. When your Spiritual Sense improves later, then come back to analyze it. Maybe we can even replicate a better building."

Da Quan Knight nodded, intending to leave.

But at this moment, the gigantic dog head mountain suddenly trembled violently.

As the dog head trembled, the entire mountain range shook with it, as if a great earthquake had occurred.

Da Quan Knight was thrown off his feet by the tremor, falling directly onto the mountain path, unsure of what was happening.

Countless viewers in the live stream also repeatedly typed question marks, all looking bewildered.

Da Quan Knight, along with everyone in the live stream, all widened their eyes.

Because they saw... that dog head mountain actually closed its mouth, its fangs retracting.

Then it slowly lifted, shaking, shedding the rocks and mud from its surface.

Next, the mountain range behind it rose from the ground, also shaking off the mud, rocks, and trees on it.

Finally, a giant Dog Demon, incomprehensibly large, slowly stood upright.

It moved its steps, one by one, heading south, each step causing a series of earth-shattering tremors.

At this moment, everyone in the live stream was stunned.

After a long while, someone finally posted a bullet comment:

"Huanmeng Group, did they... get the model size wrong?"

The colossal Dog Demon, taller than the mountains, shocked everyone the moment it appeared.

Da Quan Knight lay prostrate on the ground, feeling the earth tremble, his breathing somewhat rapid.

Just then, the light in his eyes suddenly vanished; an enormous creature had blocked the sun.

Looking up, a gigantic Eagle Demon flew south, swiftly yet distinctly slowly.
