(A chaotic space full of strange light.)
Gu Qingli's consciousness was floating in endless darkness and glaring light streams.
She felt herself bound and pulled by countless data chains, sometimes dragged into scorching flames, sometimes thrown into icy depths. Her body was being forcibly reshaped.
[System Sound]: (still chaotic electric sound) "Identity template... loading... failed... starting... backup plan... race... random... demon race... nine-tailed fox... bloodline... mixed... red... white... spiritual power... rating... extremely... weak..."
Gu Qingli felt as if her whole body was tearing apart in agony.
Gu Qingli: (faint consciousness, painful groaning) "Pain... it hurts so much... what nine-tailed fox... I want to complain! I want to give you a bad review!"
Suddenly, a crisp "ding" sound rang out. She felt something cold being placed on her wrists and ankles. Then, an indescribable heat rose from behind her.
She turned back laboriously and, in her blurred vision, saw behind her... with a "swish," nine fluffy, snow-white giant tails burst open! Each tail tip was dyed with a fiery, gorgeous red color.
Gu Qingli: (shocked into silence) "I... I'll be damned?! What, what is this?! My tails?!"
Before she could digest this horrifying fact, her head started to itch. A pair of furry, red-tipped fox ears emerged from her hair with a "pop" sound, shaking cutely.
Her professional outfit dissolved into dots of light and was replaced by a thin, soft pink and white gauze dress, short enough to barely cover her body, revealing a pair of fair and slender legs.
Gu Qingli: (completely dumbfounded, reached out to touch the ears on her head, then pulled a tail in front of her eyes) "Really... fluffy... and it feels quite good... but, the most important thing is! How did I become like this? What about the immersive experience? It formatted and reinstalled me directly!"
She looked down and found herself barefoot, delicate silver bells attached to her jade-like ankle, making a clear sound with her movements. The wrists also had the same.
Gu Qingli: "I... even come with background music?"
Before she finished speaking, the entire data tunnel shook violently, and a glaring white exit appeared in front of her.
[System Sound]: (voice gradually stabilizing, still cold) "Coordinates set... locked. Human Realm/Demon Realm/Magic Realm... Borderland - Misty Forest. Newbie protection... mechanism... loading failed. Wish you... a pleasant journey, User."
Gu Qingli: "A pleasant journey my foot! Not even a newbie package?! Hey -!"
Before she could finish shouting, that tremendous suction force came again, hurling her entire body fiercely towards the white exit.
