The Human Giant



As soon as Geo cast his spell, the shadow beneath his feet darkened until it was darker than the void. As soon as the shadow color solidified, the two arms of the shadow left the ground and grabbed hold of the obsidian platform.

Before, the two muscular arms pulled Geo's shadow out of the ground, creating a three-dimensional version of Geo's shadow. Standing beside his Shadow Clone, Geo glanced at it before clapping his hands again.

"Clap! Shadow Armor!" 

Feeling that this simply wasn't enough to put enough pressure on Yoze, Geo summoned a suit of black armor that tightly wrapped around his werewolf body. The long black spikes at his elbows, knees, and shoulders gave Yoze a sense of danger.

However, what astounded Yoze was that even though Geo only summoned the black armor to wrap around his body, an identical suit wrapped around his Shadow Clone. With additional armor covering his body and his Shadow Clone, Geo smiled as he clicked his tongue to retrieve the shards of his arm guards.

The thousands of shards that peacefully lay on the ground swiftly jumped into the air and flew towards Geo's arm before quickly reassembling into his favorite spiked armor guards. As Yoze expected on Geo's Shadow Clone, an identical version of Geo's spiked arm guards emerged.

Before Yoze could curse about his luck, Geo had adjusted himself and regained his calm. With new and improved equipment and a partner to help his battle, Geo didn't want to stall the battle any longer.

So using his immense speed, he and his Shadow Clone took a solid step before disappearing from Yoze's and the audience's vision. When Geo and his Shadow Clone disappeared, two powerful tingling sensations wrecked his body.

Feeling immense danger, Yoze's Mindless Legs quickly took control of his body before strangely twisting his body into a pretzel. Just as the audience of immortal cultivators was wondering if Yoze had been twisted into a pretzel by Geo without their knowledge, Geo and his Shadow Clone reappeared beside Yoze and sent powerful sweeps of their claws at his head and back.

With his body already twisted into a pretzel, Mindless Legs activated Lily the Wasp Monster's inner vigor inside his body to reduce his weight and slammed his back against Geo's Shadow Clone's claws. At the same time, Yoze's body expertly narrowly avoided Geo's claws that were surrounded by the spiked arm guards.

"Bang! Rip!" 

The shrieking sound of metal being ripped apart engulfed the silence at the base of the southern mountain as Yoze hoped that his Blood Armor could endure the strike. Understanding that he missed an opportunity for a quick victory, Geo redirected his claws to rip off Yoze's legs to chop them off.

As if Yoze's body could see the future, Yoze's legs exploded with power as Mindless Legs jumped into Geo's Shadow Clone. Seemingly not expecting Yoze to jump toward his Shadow Clone, Geo's Shadow Clone wasn't able to change its attack to launch a more deadly strike; instead, it could only use Yoze's force to dig deeper into the Blood Armor.

Just as the Shadow Clone's claws were about to pierce right through Yoze's Blood Armor and tear apart his flesh, Yoze forcefully took control of his body. Even though he knew that Mindless Legs was doing the best that it could in such a tough situation, he could tell that if he continued to rely on Mindless Legs, he would lose.

To be able to get a victory at this point in the battle would require him to make some sacrifices, and they would need to be followed up by a strong counterattack. Mindless Legs was an instinct movement technique that focused on avoiding danger as best as it could. 

Meaning that if Mindless Legs could create a situation where he would never be injured, it would, even if it came with the cost of losing many opportunities to reverse the situation. So knowing that Mindless Legs was entering a situation where he needed to endure severe damage to regain a footing, Yoze knew he had to take over.

With his Blood Armor nearly cut through by Geo's Shadow Clone and Geo himself closing in on him, Yoze's mind raced for ways to reverse his terrible situation. Suddenly, a brilliant glow flashed through Yoze's eyes as he saw an opportunity.

"The Shadow Clone's arm guards haven't inherited the properties of Geo's spiked arm guards. Meaning that as long as I can get away from Geo, I can deal with his Shadow Clone." 

Knowing that his plan was dangerous, but he didn't have much of a choice if he wanted victory, Yoze immediately took action. He first used the force from his jump to cause his body to begin spinning and, simultaneously, withdrew all his inner vigor from the blood in his back.

Without Yoze's various inner vigor supporting his blood, the back of Yoze's Blood Armor returned to being normal liquid blood that allowed the Shadow Clone's claws to easily tear into Yoze's back. Even with tough physical defenses, Geo's Shadow Clone's claws tore apart his flesh like butter and could easily crush his bones.

Enduring the pain from having chunks of his flesh ripped off his body, Yoze continued to spin rapidly and used Martial Wheel Sphere to increase his spinning speed even faster. As the Shadow Clone's claws tore through his skin and muscles as Yoze grinned as he used the force he generated from his spinning to strengthen his punch to the Shadow Clone's jaw.

"Boom!"

The moment his punch collided with the Shadow Clone's body, Yoze felt the strange texture of the Shadow Clone's attempt to mimic reality, but he didn't think about it too much since he sent it flying across the platform. Even though this took a while to explain reality, less than a split second had passed after Yoze had canceled Mindless Legs.

Just as Yoze punched the Shadow Clone, Geo arrived behind Yoze, with the spike on his knee a few centimeters away from Yoze's spine.
