The Human Giant



"Time, I just need more time. No matter how talented I am, I still need to put in time training and practicing."

"How many of my talents that I have collected are simply going to waste? I have been focusing on martial arts, spiritual energy, and Immortal cultivation that I don't have time to do anything else." 

"Scar, once we have reached the pinnacle of the Bloody Beast Clone method, you should be able to help me somewhat. However, I am not sure if my talents will also be transferred to you after you become my clone, but it looks like it might." Yoze said with a smile as he watched Scar finish adapting to the blood mixture.

Unlike what he and Scar expected, she looked like she had been rejuvenated instead of drained of her blood. From the looks of it, not only did she become more powerful, but his blood had adapted to her body perfectly, meaning that the chances of her dying due to blood loss had dropped dramatically.

"Let's continue, shall we," Yoze quickly said as he again cut a few more deep cuts into his body.

Yoze's blood spurted out of his body as if he was a blood fountain and rapidly began to fill with his blood. Seeing that they were starting their next session, Scar's eyes flashed with determination as she used her sharp claws to create a few cuts in her body.

Even though her cuts weren't as deep and released less blood, it was still unbelievable for most people to imagine losing as much blood as she was. Luckily, it seemed that her new tiny blood heart was slowly producing some blood to refill the amount she lost and help her heal her wounds.

Another twenty minutes had passed, and Scar felt her body again adapting to Yoze's overpowering blood. Even though she was only getting a small percent of his spiritual energy and inner vigor, she felt she was the strongest in the world.

The pressure that her body emitted unconsciously was so intense and powerful that even the Three-Eyed Crows in the sky felt a deep instinctive urge to run away but couldn't due to Yoze's human spiritual energy preventing them from escaping. After a few minutes of getting used to her new strength, she and Yoze started their last blood bath again.

[Bloody Beast Clone (Level 1: 5%)]

As soon as Yoze and Scar reached the first level of the Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method, they felt their mythical connection become solid. It was no longer an elusive feeling they shared but something that directly connected them.

Regardless of what the other felt or thought, the other would know instantly. Not to mention that the smell of blood seemed to have become permanently etched into their body, which meant that both of them had become Blood Beasts.

"Wow, this feeling ain't bad. Just one of us alone is stronger than any Third Rate Blood Master." Yoze muttered as he tightly clenched his fist as he enjoyed the power that came from deep within his blood.

Even though he had already become a Blood Master two months ago and enjoyed practicing the Blood Breaker body cultivation method, he still felt that the joy of having such a massive leap in strength was indescribable.

Scar, who had also enjoyed the breakthrough and entered the first level of the Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method, felt her eyes water as she felt incredible. Even though she still had this parasitic seed trying to grow into her body and brain, she didn't care because she wanted to enjoy the moment.

With every thump of her heart, she felt the numerous types of inner vigor inside her blood flowing through her body, giving her strength. With a single thought, she could increase her weight by nearly two thousand pounds, turn her feathers and skin into iron armor, and, most importantly, she was able to make herself into a lightning god due to her own inner vigor.

"Scar, I know you are enjoying your new body, but let me remove that seed from your brain and body so we don't have to worry about it anymore."

Seeing that Scar was enjoying her rebirth, Yoze felt happy for her. However, he still knew that if they didn't remove this abnormal seed from her body, there would always be a hidden danger for her. So they could only remove it as soon as possible so that she could truly enjoy her rebirth.

Snapping out of her daze, Scar nodded in agreement and allowed Yoze easy access to her head which was still infected by the seed that wouldn't stop growing. After so long, it had grown from a small oak tree seed to a sapling that was a foot tall and a few centimeters thick.

For most creatures having a tree growing in their brains and body would have been lethal. Still, for Blood Masters, as long as they didn't suffer too many injuries during the removal process, they would always be able to heal and return to normal. And due to their strong connection with each, it didn't take Yoze long before he removed the parasitic sapling from Scar using his blood as the ultimate surgical tool.

"Caw! Caw!?" 

"Yeah, I don't know what this is. But from the looks of it, it comes from an extremely dangerous entity." 

"Scar, do you know where this seed could have infected you?" Yoze moved his gaze from the sapling, squirming inside his hands as if it was alive, and asked Scar if she knew where she got infected.

After making a face that looked deep in thought, Scar's face lit up as she knew exactly where she had gotten infected. With a few caws, Yoze's pupils shrunk as he felt his heart turn cold.

"Are you certain you got infected inside the Branch Forest?" 

"Caw, caw, caw!" Scar said with complete seriousness in her voice.

"Shit, I didn't think that the New Swamp Town's army really was going there to fight a real anomaly. I thought that they were going to investigate my fight against the Immortal Welse."

"That could explain why they still hadn't returned even after a week had passed by. I was too excited about joining the Immortal Tattoo Sect that I ignored the oddness of the situation." Yoze's eyes twitched as he felt a powerful urge to return to New Swamp Town, but he suppressed it.

Even if he left now and ran at his fastest speed without stopping once, it would still take him five days to reach New Swamp Town. By that time, either the town had been long overrun or still had solid defenses, so his urgency wouldn't change anything.
