For Those Who Come After.
A fox-like beast with nine heads, nine tails, and the claws of a tiger. Every beast of the Eastern Mountain heralds disaster. Some bring plague. Others leave drought or swarms of locusts in their wake. This one brings none of those. It simply rips apart everything in front of it. Nine jaws snap; nine tails crack through the air like whips. Wherever its claws fall, flesh is torn open and bone is split. Before your eyes can follow its first lunge, all nine mouths are already closing in from every direction. It needs no cunning and sets no traps. Strength alone is enough. For almost anyone, meeting it in open combat is a death sentence. Whoever consumes its heart inherits its terrifying power. Muscles and sinews are reforged, granting the strength to shatter stone and tear through iron. Every bone hardens beyond black steel, so that ordinary weapons do little more than scratch your skin. Its whole existence is merely to destroy whatever stands before it.
状如狐，九尾九首，虎爪加身。东山诸兽，各携一场灾殃而来，或瘟，或旱，或蝗，动辄祸及一方。唯独此兽，不带来什么大祸。它不掀瘟疫，不引旱蝗，只当面撕碎眼前之物，仅此而已。 九颗头颅，便是九张择人而噬的口。九条尾，翻搅如鞭。虎爪过处，皮开骨裂。你还未看清它扑向哪个方向，九口已从四面八方咬合。它不设伏，不用计，也无需如此。正面遇上它，几乎无人生还。 食其心者，则尽承其力。筋骨如换，力可裂石断金。周身骨骼坚逾玄铁，刀砍不入，锤击不折。你一拳能碎顽石，寻常兵刃加身，也不过溅起火星。旁人穷尽百般算计取你性命，你只须硬生生受下，然后走到他面前。 它一生只做一件事，便是将眼前之物拆得粉碎。
