The Human Giant



"Crack, Crack, Crack"

Soon after Scar began to absorb Yoze's blood mixture, her body underwent drastic changes. Her bones began to crack as she experienced another growth spurt.

In mere seconds, she grew an additional foot as her black feather shimmered with a metallic gray color. Her claws glinted with the color of sharp gold that seemed capable of cutting through anything.

Moreover, her three blood-red eyes had suddenly gained different colored sparkles. Whether it was red, blue, green, orange, or gray, she had at least one or two in her eyes showing that she had not only gained an increase in strength and a small percentage of Yoze's numerous types of inner vigor, but she also gained some of his spiritual energy.

Before Yoze had time to process this sudden development, he heard a soft thumping sound from within Scar's body. Even though the heartbeats were much quieter than Yoze's war drums, it was still audible.

Yoze felt even more surprised hearing this sound as he was certain that this thumping sound wasn't coming from Scar's normal heart. Instead, it came from slightly below, meaning she had developed another heart.

"Incredible... This shouldn't have happened until we reached the second level of the Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method, at least. To see this much change can only happen so early means that you and I are extremely compatible or that my blood produced by my Blood Heart already has this invasive property." 

It took a few seconds for Yoze to regain his composure since the changes Scar had undergone were far more than he had predicted. But this shouldn't have been surprising since any techniques or body cultivation methods usually took many trials and tests before finally finding what worked.

But he could skip most of these tests and trials due to his talent in martial arts and his high information-processing speed. Still, it was unavoidable that there were bound to be a few surprises since he couldn't account for everything.

For example, although the three body cultivation methods that Yoze used to create the Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method were extremely compatible with one another, they were still very different. So most martial artists would struggle to fuse these methods without making a lot of compromises.

Yoze chose another route to get the same result as all three body cultivation methods to get around this issue. First, he divided the Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method into four different stages that fit with the four levels of the Blood Master realm.

The first level of the Bloody Beast Clone method was called the Synchronization stage and corresponded to Third Rate Blood Masters. In this stage, the user and their beast would have their bodies synced.

Meaning that their hearts, brains, muscle cramps, and emotions would sync and enter a perfect harmony. This not only would allow them to better share their inner vigor and get a massive boost in strength, but their ability to battle with one another would be out of this world.

Without communication, they would understand what the other person wanted to do, their thoughts, and even their emotions. This came with a massive boost in their teamwork and coordination.

The second stage was the Transformation Stage and matched well with the Second Rate Blood Master level. This was the stage where Yoze expected to see Scar begin to develop and truly begin to become his clone. In this stage, she would gain any organs that she previously lacked, which would benefit her.

However, this transformation wasn't exclusive to the beast since even the users would see small body modifications that would make them far stronger. In this case, Yoze expected that his fingernails would have become longer and sharper, and his internal organs might have evolved slightly.

The third stage was the Second Body stage. The stage where they both would become each other's second body. By using their blood, they could even transform into one another. 

The fourth stage was the Clone stage and where Scar would, in theory, get a human body and become his clone. Not only would she have been able to practice martial arts made for humans, which were the majority, but she would have also been able to speak the human language.

Once Scar and he reached this stage, they would have become Blood Masters that were at the peak. And it would be far stronger than other Blood Masters and even be able to fight to beat some Martial Grandmasters.

However, seeing Scar undergoing some transformation before they even reached the Synchronization stage meant either he had drastically underestimated his Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method or underestimated his Blood Heart's capabilities.

"It has to be my Blood Heart. So far, I have absorbed our blood mixture, but other than having a closer link to you and gaining more of your inner vigor, I have not transformed at all." Yoze calmly said after examining his body.

"I should have expected that something from an anomaly wasn't so simple. To think that it could transform the bodies of any creature that absorbs it."

"Not to mention, it seems that some of my spiritual energy has entered my blood. It must have happened when my spiritual energies went berserk."

"Wow, I almost forgot that I wanted to research how the Leopard demon was able to modify its body to survive having many holes in its body." Yoze's eyes shimmered with brown sparkles before he sighed.

"Having all three different powers has allowed me to become incredibly strong, but at the same time, it has become increasingly difficult to manage all of them. I have to research more about Martial Formations and make more progress in my body cultivation methods."

"But I also can't forget about my spiritual energy since it is crucial to making my body as powerful as demons. I am already far behind most demons on my spiritual energy control, so I have to at least try to close the gap."

"Both my immortal cultivation and witchcraft are even further behind than my spiritual energy. At this moment, they are not adding as much of an increase to my battle prowess as I like, so I need to make more progress so they can become useful." Yoze felt a headache as he wished that he had clones that would do the training for him.
