"Originally, we planned to use the spiritual treasures to stir up the disputes among different clans of the
spiritual race, so that the Wild Spirit Land would once again fall into eternal war. Once this happens, we
can take advantage of this opportunity to break all the other clans of the spiritual race down one by
one, and finally rule the entire spiritual race. Progress-wise, things are still a little unsatisfactory, but we
are getting there. Moreover, if you look at the bigger picture, this plan has successfully brought all the
other clans of the spiritual race to fight for the spiritual treasures. Although the unexpected internal
strife occurred in the Dragon Master Clan, it is also our saving grace for it swept us away from facing
big trouble. The Holy Dragon Empire has been separated from the Dragon Master Clan since then, and
thus, the latter does not pose a threat to us anymore. What's left now are the Wood Clan and the
Phoenix Master Clan, and they have also obtained their respective spiritual treasure. Therefore, I
believe that both of them will stay quiet to protect themselves from here on out. If all goes well, then our
plan will be carried out smoothly. All that's left to do is to ignite the fire more." At that moment, a shrewd
smile crept on the face of Townsend, the patriarch of the Heavenly Demon Clan.
Just like the famous saying, "When the water subsides, the rocks emerge," it was most likely that
someone was behind all of this mess. As it turned out, it was the Heavenly Demon Clan who plotted in
the dark for the clans of the spiritual race to hunt spiritual treasures.
"I'm glad that everything is under control. Don't worry about the Dragon Master Clan. I can handle them
on my own. As long as Rex and the Mu Clan remain incompatible as fire and water, they will certainly
do us the work and wear each other out. When that happens, I will take the Dragon Master Clan into
my hand soon," Reginald said confidently, as he clenched his fists sinisterly.
"Rex must have never thought that his most trusted confidant is lusting over his position all the time.
How pathetic!" Townsend exclaimed pretentiously, putting a little sarcasm into his voice.
"May I ask you something? So, where is the soul that I brought you last time? How is it doing now?"
Reginald asked and changed the topic.
"Oh, yeah, that one. I put it in a vessel as you have asked me to. A couple of days ago, we just
conquered a small clan of spiritual race and captured their only spiritual master. I planned to induce him
to join us, but that stubborn old thing refused everything I said. I was so pissed off that I drew his soul
out of his body. I stuffed that body with the soul you brought me," Townsend said and stood up, giving
Reginald a signal to follow him.
Soon after, the two of them left the hall, crossed the long corridor, and headed for the depths of the
palace.
A few minutes passed, and they had finally arrived at a thick and exquisite gate somewhere deep in the
palace.
The door slowly opened, and a huge pool filled with blood-red liquid rushed into their eyes. This thick
liquid flowed slowly inside the pool, while eight stone pillars with thick and long iron chains were tied to
a spiritual master who looked like a fish monster in the pool.
Both of them came closer. Being only a few inches away from it, they saw the blue veins popping all
over the spiritual master's body. Moreover, his face turned ferocious as if he was enduring
unfathomable pain.
"It won't take long for the soul to completely adapt to this body. There may be some side effects, but it
is not a big deal, compared to the gains. To tell you the truth, his willpower is stronger than I thought.
Originally, it is impossible for a human soul to bear the power of the spiritual master's body. But look at
him. He did it," Townsend said lightly, as he stared at the body inside the pool with great sanctification.
"What can I say? The power of hate is unimaginable," Reginald sneered.
At that moment, the spiritual master in the pool shook his body violently, clanking the chains tied to its
body. Without warning, it shouted exhaustively, "B... Basil I'm going to... kill... you! I... will kill you!"
After a few months, Sabina and Lucilla were standing outside a huge greenhouse delivery room inside
the Genome Research Institute at Crimson City, looking extremely nervous.
"Sabina, do you think we can make it?" Lucilla couldn't help but ask as her voice shivered in
excitement.
"I don't know. I don't have a single clue! This is the result of Basil's three-month worth of painstaking
efforts. If it doesn't work, then I guess he will have to work on it for many more months," Sabina said
and heaved a deep anxious sigh.
Since the establishment of the Genome Research Institute, Rocky had showered it with his full
devotion. In fact, he had spent almost all his time working in the institute if he didn't cultivate with
Sabina and the others.
Therefore, Sabina and the others had very few chances to talk to him every day, just like the typical
neglected little wives.
Then, another delicate figure came over, holding a cute child in her arms. The moment she saw Sabina
and Lucilla, she asked, "Hasn't Basil come out yet?"
Sabina and Lucilla looked back and said in unison, "No, he's still inside."
"It has been a day and a night. Every time he devotes his time into something that he is passionate
about, he surely leaves every other matter behind. He must have forgotten that today is Nigel's
birthday. If he doesn't come out, then I will take the little one back to the Crimson Dragon Group to see
his grandfather, and we won't return for a long time," the figure snarled.
This figure was none other than Isis. Although she had given birth to a child who was now one year old,
she still looked like a single girl without any trace of motherhood in her body. Moreover, what made her
look younger was her charm.
"If he cannot manage his time for us, then I vote that we should all go away and leave him alone in this
institute," Sabina said in a fit of pique.
"Well, let's just hope that he'll come out soon," Lucilla said as she attuned to the girls' feelings
The next second, they fixed their eyes on the closed door from across the hall. After a while, it opened
and revealed a man in a white coat and mask.
Seeing this, the three girls immediately stood up and surrounded him as soon as he came out.
"Thank god! You finally came out. Isis said that if you don't come out today, she would take Nigel back
to the Crimson Dragon Group. Your mind is full of these spirit-manipulated beasts! Have you forgotten
that you have a wife and a son?" Sabina said sarcastically.
Immediately, the figure took off his mask and revealed a resolute face. Who else could it be except for
Rocky?
"Today is Nigel's birthday, right?" Rocky grinned from ear to ear and walked to Isis immediately and
reached his hands for the little boy.
"But I thought you had forgotten!" Isis glared at him.
"Of course not! How could I? I delivered him myself, and I will remember this day in my mind forever,"
Rocky said with a fulfilled smile and took Nigel in his arms, putting his forehand against the boy's.
"How about your experiment? Is it working?" Sabina asked, expecting good news.
"See it for yourself. Go in and have a look." Rocky smiled mysteriously.
Sabina and Lucilla exchanged looks and walked towards the delivery room hastily. Meanwhile, Rocky
walked behind with Isis as ha made funny faces to amuse Nigel.
Rocky used this greenhouse, especially for the purpose of artificial reproduction; hence, its facilities
were complete.
As soon as they set foot in the delivery room, they noticed several divisions, each of which was marked
with letters and numbers.
Scanning the room, they observed the presence of some staff in white coats busily running around in
their masks.
Soon after, Rocky and the others walked to the area marked D4. There, they saw a huge female
dragon beast lying in it. In the nest made of dry grass beside it, there were several little beasts that
wriggled continuously.
