The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast-Chapter 624: Only for Immortality

The Spiritual Body was weird, having a human head, but its six limbs were stitched on haphazardly.

"Is this the Pheasant’s Spiritual Body?" Little Taotie stared at it for a long while, "It doesn’t look like it at all!"

Shen Cang stopped Little Taotie from trying to take things out of the oven bare-handed. Little Taotie obediently put on thick gloves before reaching for the baking tray inside the oven.

The skin was caramelized, and Little Taotie’s little paws were eager to try.

Shen Cang said, "It’s all yours, eat slowly."

While Little Taotie was busy eating the "roasted Pheasant," Shen Cang began to interrogate the Spiritual Body inside the glass bottle.

The Spiritual Body mumbled vaguely, seemingly trying to conceal the truth.

Shen Cang indifferently remarked, "Little Taotie can eat Spiritual Bodies."

The Spiritual Body looked toward Little Taotie, who was currently busy dismantling the "roasted Pheasant," and shuddered, "I’ll talk, I’ll tell you everything."

This body’s current state was merely a façade of being devoid of Divine Skills.

If it could regain its Divine Skills, it would have no rival between heaven and earth.

The Ghost-faced People belonged to a certain organization that staunchly believed in the existence of everything described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

Furthermore, they wanted to witness the ferocity of the Divine Beasts and Fierce Beasts described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

People from this organization were spread across the entirety of Blue Star, with their tendrils in every location.

From an ancient tomb, they discovered a "Pheasant" devoid of Divine Skills. Although the "Pheasant" was long dead, its only saving grace was that its body had not decayed and remained intact.

The "Pheasant’s" body was similar to a shell, armor, or container. The organization came up with a plan to transplant another Soul Body into this body. If successful, it would replicate the greatness of ancient civilizations and witness Divine Skills powerful enough to transform the world. freēwēbnovel.com

The fire of the Vermilion Bird and the myriad changes of Chaos were not mere fantasies but were ventures that might be witnessed firsthand. This notion drove the people within the organization to madness and excitement.

Thus, they tried many methods. Initially, an elderly organizational high-ranking official, whose heart was already overburdened and who wouldn’t have lived much longer, wanted to use the "Pheasant’s" body to achieve immortality.

So, he participated in the first experiment, volunteering his Soul Body to be transplanted into the "Pheasant."

However, the experiment failed. He died, and his soul was scattered.

Latterly, the organization discovered that not just any human’s soul could control a body that descended from Divine Beasts and Fierce Beasts.

They conducted many experiments.

On the surface, it seemed like they were cultivating monsters, but this was merely a Blinding Method employed by the organization. Their most critical experiment was to bring back the descendants of Divine Beasts and Fierce Beasts to the world once again.

And what "The Pheasant" experiment truly sought was immortality!

Immortality, a word that fascinates.

The First Emperor, despite having united six nations and become a mortal Emperor with immense power, still had an unfinished desire: immortality.

People, from the moment they’re born, know they will eventually die with nothing in their hands.

Whether it’s vanishing after death, being reincarnated, or facing some other possibility, few know before they die.

The fear of death, magnified by the unknown.

With the continuous development of medical technology, heart transplants, organ transplants, all these are just ways to live longer. Everyone is aware that immortality is impossible, yet these procedures could extend life even by a bit.

Organ transplants come with high risks; it’s very likely one could enter the operating room and never come out, dying on the operating table. Nonetheless, many people still take the risk, just to live a little longer, reflecting their desire for immortality.

The organization believed that they were merely doing something similar, only transplanting the soul into a body that could live longer, thus achieving the result of immortality.

Even if "The Pheasant" had a lifespan with an end, it was still longer than that of humans; it was all just to live a bit longer.

What’s wrong with that?

If it’s wrong, aren’t other transplants based on the same concept?
