The Human Giant



As Yoze walked up the stairs to arrive at the fourth floor, he noticed that, unlike the previous floor, there weren't any guards or people anywhere on the floor. Meaning that there wasn't any extra security blocking this room from being accessed so Yoze felt he should be able to go through this floor quickly.

When he arrived at the two giant doors that were his final obstacle to entering the fourth floor, Yoze didn't slow down and push the two doors open. By the time he was able to open a gap big enough to get through, Yoze felt disappointed at his discovery.

The floor was empty with not a single trace of any books, shelves, or even podiums. There was just nothing. The fourth floor was just an empty floor.

"Since I'm here there is no point in going back outside. I'll just cultivate until my talent marks refresh." 

With only a few hours left on his talent mark cooldown and seeing that there was nothing new inside the library, Yoze sat down on the floor and took out two crystals, and began to cultivate. The moment Yoze closed his eyes he could sense the bits of crystal dust being absorbed into his body and flying toward both his crystal nerves and dead crystal nerves.

Two streams of crystal dust, one thin stream and one thick steam, formed as they flew at two different targets. The thin stream of crystal dust flew toward Yoze's crystal nerves like fireflies attracted to light. 

As the stream of crystal dust made contact with the crystal nerves, they were quickly absorbed into the nerves and slowly but surely filled them to their limits. While the thick stream of crystal dust flew toward Yoze's dead crystal nerves faced a different scenario.

As they got closer the crystal dust could even touch the surface of his dead crystal nerves as it was completely covered up by previous crystal dust. There was crystal dust from types of crystals that varied in shape, size, and color which created a scene of a branch of nerves being colored like rainbow bridges.

Unfortunately, this beautiful scene would never be a scene in the outside world but the journey of the thick stream of crystal dust didn't end after reaching the dead crystal nerves. Instead, due to how thick the layers of crystal dust covered his dead crystal nerves, a majority of the crystal dust from the thick stream became attracted to the nearby crystal nerves.

After changing their final destination location to the crystal nerves, another stream of crystal dust flew toward the crystal nerves filling it even faster. With two sources of crystal dust flying their way, Yoze's crystal nerves filled up at astonishing speed.

With his speed with immortal cultivation boosted, Yoze quickly fell into a trance of grabbing crystals and rapidly absorbing them. Time quickly flew by as Yoze cultivated in peace, he only broke out of his cultivation trance when he saw a familiar panel pop up.

[Talent Marks: 2]

"Finally," Yoze smiled as he looked at the 18 feet tall white tiger and the giant serpent that sat down beside him.

"Serpent, I'll take a look at your talents first." 

[Name: Slezro Slither]

[Age: 6 years old]

[Talents: Body Cultivation (Grade 6), Giant Vine Serpent (Grade 10), Thermal Vision (Grade 4), Flexibility (Grade 8), Movement Tracking (Grade 3), Rapid Calculation (Grade 3)]

"It worked, I can now finally be able to get talents from animals and advance Mindless Legs. And your talents aren't that bad." Yoze smiled as he quickly copied the giant serpent's talents.

As soon as Yoze copied the Giant Vine Serpent's talent he felt his mind begin to wander as he imagined a goat staring down at a giant serpent. The goat was large and had a murderous look in its eyes as it stared the serpent down as if it was watching an enemy step into its home.

Meanwhile, the giant vine serpent grinned before wagging its strong tail at the goat trying to provoke it. Just as the goat was about to lose its mind both of them suddenly changed their minds and disappeared in his blood. 

Yoze shook his head to get rid of his vivid imagination, even though he had a feeling that there would be a conflict in his talents. Luckily, it seemed to him that having multiple talents related to animals wasn't going to cause a conflict in his body.

He only felt that his connection with the giant serpent was now steadily growing even without his assistance. Yoze felt that the reason for this growth was that even without him actively trying to use his Giant Vine Serpent talent just the mere presence of and connection with the giant serpent made his talent active.

"Having my connection with my beast pets grow constantly should allow me to push through the levels of the Beast Human body cultivation method even faster."

"If my thought process is correct this would even allow me to cut down on the number of animals I need to reach the peak of Mindless Legs." Yoze felt his mind racing with new ideas and the possible benefits of his discovery.

"I save my last talent mark just in case something interesting comes around today. As for now, it's time to destroy the Beast Hunter Sect and collect the books and treasures." Yoze stood up with a stretch before walking downstairs to leave the library.

Noticing that Yoze was leaving and getting ready to wreak havoc, the giant serpent's eyes glittered with excitement while the white tiger let out a deep breath before preparing itself to test out its new power. When the three of them made it back to the third floor, they noticed that the young bald man's body had turned into a puddle of blood.

The only thing that was left of the young bald man was his clothes and a strange blood red crystal that radiated intense heat and light. 

"That bald young man was an immortal."
