Karin Xiao hadn’t named the new species yet, because he still didn’t know what this new species looked like. With five species merging into one, he was very curious about what kind of creature would result.

With the new species card in hand, he hovered above the Divine Realm. After pondering for a moment, he decided to abandon the initial plan for the Tribal Gray Fog Fish people and let this newly born species become the main species of the Divine Realm.

It was somewhat cruel, but this was a path that every Divine Realm Master had to take in their lifetime.

Every New Divine Being starting their own Divine Realm, because of the initial value of Godness being so low, could generally only choose extremely weak races like Goblins, Fishmen, or Kobolds. Powerful races like Humans, Elves, Dwarves, and the like were beyond their capacity due to their Divinity, requiring a higher value of Godness to sustain.

As the Divine Realm Master of a new Divine Realm gradually grew stronger, the original weak species would certainly not be able to keep up. At that point, a switch to more powerful races would be mandatory.

This was inevitable; otherwise, while others are switching to powerful races like Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Beastmen and so on, if you were still using Goblins and Fishmen, what would you use to confront these powerful races in battle?

In the future, when leading campaigns into the Outland Crystal Wall System planes, would you lead a group of Goblin Fishmen to war?

That would be a joke.

Karin Xiao had known about this step for a while, but he hadn’t expected it to come so soon. He thought it would happen when he reached Rank 2 or Rank 3, not that he’d find a suitable new species while still at Rank 1.

Clutching the card that emanated a faint dark golden glow, he tossed it forward. The gold card shattered in mid-air and turned into a mist of gold that descended rapidly, expanding and settling on the ground as a football-field-sized cloud of golden fog.

A sea breeze blew from the nearby ocean, dispersing the golden fog and revealing creatures that were two meters tall with serpentine tails stretching over four meters long, covered in thick scales…

Well, how to put it, this species looked somewhat familiar and didn’t require elaborate description—it closely resembled an amphibious species known as Naga.

Yes, just like the Naga from a game called Demanimal World from Karin Xiao’s era before he crossed over, except their skin was a bit darker, their scales slightly rougher, their faces somewhat different from the Naga, and they looked a tad more ferocious.

In total, there were two hundred Black Scale Naga, half male and half female.

It’s worth mentioning that he simply named them Black Scale Naga because he thought they resembled Naga; it wasn’t to say that they were the true Naga race. In fact, in certain Crystal Wall systems, an actual Naga race existed — his newly merged species merely bore a resemblance.

Moreover, his newly named Black Scale Naga, didn’t exhibit significant differences between the sexes; unlike the true Naga race where males look like monsters and females are beautiful and charming like Fish people, both male and female Black Scale Naga were equally unattractive, their bodies covered in black scales without allure.

The only way to distinguish the sexes was that the males were sturdier, and their scales and body lines were rougher, while the females had slightly softer lines, making it generally easy to differentiate at first glance.

Of course, whether male or female, they were all equally ugly, and Karin Xiao had no illusions about that.

But that didn’t stop him from adoring this new species; he was quite satisfied with it.

It didn’t matter whether they were true Naga or not; what mattered were the attributes and strength they possessed, and this new species still had room to grow.

As a species he had newly created, recognized by the obscure rules of creation, now condensed with the Godhood of Creation, he could continue to merge new bloodlines to enhance them in the future. According to the laws of creation, he could further strengthen them…

Karin Xiao checked, and he could further strengthen the Black Scale Naga five more times on the existing basis?

Wait, enhance them five more times?

He was very surprised to see that it indeed could be enhanced five more times.

“This… This is a bit strong!”

Lin Xiao was extremely surprised.

He remembered a case his theory teacher had mentioned before, where a Divine Being with Powerful Divine Power once created a new species that had three enhancement opportunities. After three enhancements, it directly created a Sub-legendary species, incredibly strong.

Even new species created by Powerful Divine Power with all their might had only three potential enhancements, yet this ugly new species of his had five—Lin Xiao…

His lips curled into a smile that he couldn’t suppress no matter how hard he tried.

From that moment on, he made up his mind to only promote two enhancement opportunities to the outside world.

In this way, he could demonstrate his potential and receive attention without attracting envious gazes due to being too high-profile.

The newly born species stood somewhat bewildered on the Black Land. As a new creation, their memories were blank; unlike creatures summoned from Species Cards, which retained some of their previous memories.

However, in their memories, the presence of Lin Xiao existed. As their creator, he naturally gained the faith of the Black Scale Naga clan; these two hundred Black Scale Naga were True Believers from birth.

Moreover, when he later condensed his Godhood, he could give precedence to solidifying his role as the Racial God of the Black Scale Naga with just a bit of divinity capacity, just like the Dwarf Lord, the Elf Lord God, or the God of Fishmen, et cetera.

In other words, any creator is innately the Main God of the species they create.

Therefore, Lin Xiao’s divine name could now be changed, or he could add another one, such as the Father or God of the Black Scale Naga.

Compared to the divine names of Lord of the Grey Mist, King of the Endless Tide, and Master of the Seven Seas, which were randomly added to increase prestige, the title God of the Black Scale Naga was well deserved.

While he was daydreaming about this, the Fishman tribe on the other side had already noticed the newly appeared Black Scale Naga. A large group of Fishmen rushed out of the tribe, observing these formidable new creatures from afar, many of them grasping their Short Spears with a fierce glint in their eyes.

After defeating more than two hundred Snake people, these Fishmen had become audacious. Meeting the Black Scale Naga, whose stature wasn’t much different from the Snake people, they showed no timidity and even dared to take the initiative.

The Black Scale Naga, sensing the malice from the Fishmen, had a fierce gleam in their eyes. The nature of the multiple races they had fused with was not inherently kind, and their ferocity was almost oozing out. The Fishmen, seeming like small fry, dared to show hostility and were immediately surrounded by many Black Scale Naga.

Their looks were somewhat similar to Hyenamen with fierce visages, and their serpent-like firm pupils fixed intently on the incoming Fishmen.

Just as the two sides were about to break out in combat, Lin Xiao finally sensed the murderous intent below and reacted. A roar like a muffled thunder exploded in the minds of all the Fishmen and Black Scale Naga, and in an instant, the Fishman Naga were prostrated on the ground.

The Wrath of a Deity sobered all the Fishman Naga. Seizing the moment of awe, Lin Xiao immediately issued Divine-mandates separately to the Fishmen and the Black Scale Naga.

The numerous Fishmen immediately got up and quickly retreated to their tribe, while the Black Scale Naga gathered together. Lin Xiao selected one that caught his eye and had the highest level of faith to temporarily appoint as an Angel Envoy and convey his will to them.

Whether it was Fishmen or Black Scale Naga, at the very least they were all True Believers; the effects of the Divine-mandate were very clear, obediently one group returned to their tribe, and the other to their place of arrival..
