The Growth of a God

Chapter 755 The Price of Immortality

"Woo!"

As the painful and sharp wails continued to reach Dongjun's ears.

The surging breath of death quickly enveloped the entire void layer, and the vibrations that followed gave a visual sense that it was about to collapse the place.

call!
Flapping his wings again, Dongjun went deeper in the direction where the sound came from.

Soon, Dongjun saw the wailing, shaking, and the source of life mixed with the breath of death.

It was a rotten giant beast that looked no different from a zombie.

It has a pair of huge, winding horns, and its sturdy limbs are covered with scales...

Just lying there, a strong and overbearing aura enveloped half of the void layer, giving people a particularly majestic feeling.

"Woo!"

Although the giant beast was wailing, it did not make any breathing movements.

No, it's not just that I can't breathe...

Dongjun didn't even hear the heartbeat of a normal living being, as if the other party was really dead.

"Are you in pain?"

With some doubts, Dongjun came to the front of the giant beast.

Due to the huge size difference between the two parties, Dongjun seemed as small as an ant in front of this giant beast.

"Are your eyes still functioning properly? Can you see me now?"

It was not until Dongjun took the initiative to transform into a human form and stayed at the position of the opponent's pupils that the giant beast gradually stopped howling.

It can be seen that the eyes of this giant beast have indeed lost their normal biological functions.

The huge pupils could not reflect Dongjun's shadow, and even the slightest rotation gave people the illusion of dying and decay.

Theoretically speaking, this behemoth is already dead and cannot be deader.

But such a giant beast, which should have been completely dead, is now dragging its rotten body and continuing to survive.

If I had to describe the current state of this behemoth.

It was like a cooked octopus that had been served on the table and even had two bites taken of it, but it was still twisting and jumping on the plate, full of an evil feeling.

"Who are you?"

Just when Dongjun thought that the giant beast could not communicate at all, a deep voice suddenly came from the depths of its throat.

That was not the voice of a normal creature speaking, but rather the sound of decay produced by the giant beast by forcibly vibrating its own throat.

【Without so much effort, we can communicate with each other. 】

With a compassionate look on his face, Dongjun obviously understood the current situation of the giant beast.

【What happened to you? 】

【Is there anything I can help you with now? 】

When hearing Dongjun's gentle question, the giant beast's wailing suddenly became sad.

The two eyeballs, which had lost their normal biological functions, were leaking a sticky fluid like pus-filled pustule.

[Kill me... Please kill me! ]

In the communication that went straight to the heart, the voice of this giant beast seemed unusually immature.

When Dongjun heard this voice for the first time, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Because this childish voice clearly belongs to that of an adolescent girl.

After realizing this, the compassion on Dongjun's face instantly turned heavy.

[Did the magic lamp turn you into this? ]

Forcing down the anger in his heart, Dong Jun asked patiently and gently.

He swore that all this was caused by the magic lamp.

Even if the other party is the Creator's artifact, I must destroy this "source of extreme evil". [No... This has nothing to do with Da Lan, it's my own fault...]

He immediately denied Dongjun's statement, and the giant beast's voice revealed the panic unique to a young man who had gotten into trouble.

[I made the wrong wish myself. Da Lan also advised me against it...]

As the giant beast told the story, what had happened to it was gradually revealed to Dongjun.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Just as Dongjun guessed.

Before becoming a giant beast, the girl was just a normal person from the mountains and seas.

The biggest difference between the girl and other mountain and sea names is that the race she belongs to is extremely rare, and the entire race may not exceed a hundred members.

In the official records of the Shanhai Civilization, this rare race did not even have a formal racial name, but was listed in an extremely special genus - the metamorphosis species.

As the name suggests, the metamorphosis species is a special race that can undergo abnormal development, secondary or even multiple metamorphosis.

The most famous race in this genus list is the golden toad clan, whose appearance is completely different between childhood and adult stages.

If you want to be precise, the Canglong clan can barely be classified as a branch of the metamorphosis species.

The race the girl belongs to is even more special. They can undergo up to five transformations.

And this is just the number of recorded transformations of the Shanhai Civilization, not the limit of this species.

Each transformation will bring about earth-shaking changes, and the gap between individuals will be even greater than that between other races.

Due to the particularity of the race, coupled with the scarcity of individuals...

The girl had always been dependent on her parents and had basically never seen anyone of her own kind.

However, the transformation of the mutant species is never smooth.

Even a powerful creature like Canglong would face certain dangers when drawing lightning into its body, not to mention the special mutant species whose specific cases are extremely rare.

During the girl's mother's last transformation, she uncontrollably underwent genetic mutation and turned into a terrifying and ferocious beast.

Although the city guardian appeared in time at the critical moment and stopped the ferocious beast.

But the beast still killed the girl's father, and then died in a vicious genetic collapse.

That day, the girl lost both her father and mother, and at the same time developed an unprecedented fear of death.

For a long period of time afterwards, the girl spent time in the security compound.

The Anbaoyuan is a unique institution of the Shanhai civilization. It combines the functions of an orphanage, a relief home, and a number of welfare institutions. It was established specifically to deal with situations like that of young girls.

After all, there are so many divisions among the hundreds of tribes in the mountains and seas, and there are always some special tribes that do not value offspring.

Or maybe it's because there are too many offspring...

Or maybe it’s because the growth cycle of individuals is too long…

Or maybe it's because these races are inherently extremely aggressive...

In short, the girl's situation is not special in the Security Bureau.

So, when the girl successfully completed her first transformation, she entered the school to study under the arrangement of the Security Institute.

Maybe it’s because of my past experiences.

The girl was different from her peers. She was determined to become a god from the beginning.

While her friends were still thinking about what they should do in the future, the girl had already set foot on the starting point of the pursuit of immortality.

Become a deity, advance to a demigod, and then become a true god...

This is the life goal that the girl set for herself, a path to immortality that would completely free her from death.

There may be episodes and hesitations in the process, but the girl always firmly believes in the path she is taking and does not want to die tragically like her parents.
