The Human Giant



"I'll take Boneless Man. It's not similar to my current body cultivation and it offers something I'm interested in, increased mobility and flexibility."

Yoze nodded in understanding and handed her the Boneless Man body cultivation manual. 

"I'll show you how to do the first position after Tiki and Dreyer make their choice," Yoze said to Jewel.

Jewel nodded her head in understanding and opened up the book that Yoze had handed her. After a few minutes of reading, she frowned as she was having a difficult time understanding how exactly she was supposed to accomplish the various poses that the book wanted her to take.

Jewel's martial art comprehension talent wasn't the best but neither was it terrible. She was able to learn most body cultivation methods and martial techniques in a few days.

In particular, Jewel was able to learn Jade Armor immediately after she was old enough to practice martial arts and was handed the method. However, that was more because she had been taught by her parents that had trained in the same body cultivation method. So she was able to ask numerous questions about the body cultivation method and even saw them train it before.

So when Jewel picked it up herself she was able to understand it quickly and even was able to start training on the first day. However, it was different this time around since she had only seen Yoze train in the Boneless Man body cultivation once but was too focused on her training to learn from him.

Because of that Jewel couldn't immediately do the poses that Boneless Man required in the right way, stalling her progress until she figured it out. As for Tiki and Dreyer, while they didn't have martial art comprehension as a talent when Yoze used a talent mark on them they didn't need to figure out the poses of Boneless Man by themselves.

They had Yoze leading by example and any mistakes they made with the form would be corrected by him, meaning that they didn't need to completely comprehend the Boneless Man's method themselves.

Tiki and Dreyer were able to skip the difficult period of figuring out what most martial artists had to go through. For most martial artists, if they didn't understand how to train or do what their body cultivation or martial art techniques required then they wouldn't be able to move forward with their martial arts.

Yoze on the other hand was simply an anomaly. He had gone through the same difficulty that most martial artists had to go through when his martial art comprehension talent was low.

But since he had trained in Twin Fists and Big Golem which were both incredibly simple compared to other martial arts he didn't face the situation of having to spend numerous days to understand or practice before he could move forward.

As time moved on, the problem of understanding martial art techniques and body cultivation quickly became a nonissue for Yoze. As his talents increased his ability to quickly understand and comprehend also improved.

With his current talents alone numbering close to 200 Yoze was able to learn any subject quickly.

Luckily, Jewel didn't have to go through this difficulty since she would be able to receive the same help that Tiki and Dreyer were able to receive from Yoze. At this moment she only had a Yoze few questions about the Boneless Man poses before she would be able to accomplish it.

"I decided to take the Sinking Swamp body cultivation." 

Snapping out of her thoughts Jewel saw that Dreyer and Tikin were deciding what they wanted to train in. Dreyer had stepped up and grabbed the Sinking Swamp body cultivation manual from Yoze's hands and opened it up.

Just like Jewel expected, a frown appeared on Dreyer's face as he read the book. After reading the first few pages, he handed the book to Tiki who also frowned as she read the same pages.

"I'll also stick to Boneless Man for now. The additional control that it gives my body is amazing and pairs well with immortal cultivation." Tiki said with calmness on her face.

"That's fine with me. Since you three are doing two different body cultivation methods it makes it easy for me. " Yoze smiled.

"First off, Tiki just do the pose I showed you yesterday and do it for as long as you can. Meanwhile, Dreyer, to train in the Sinking Swamp method you're going to need a coin to help with your training." 

"Here is the coin. The first step to training Sinking Swamp is quite different from Boneless Man since it is not about keeping a single pose as long as you could. Instead, it focuses on training to have precise control over your skin and muscles."

"Do this simple exercise with your hands until you feel confident then do it with the coin."

Yoze tossed Dreyer a copper coin to practice before showing him how to train his skin and muscles using the method prescribed by the Boneless Man book. Once he showed Dreyer a few times practicing with the method he showed him, he turned his focus to Jewel.

"Is there anything you don't understand?" Knowing that Jewel was already experienced in martial arts Yoze wanted to ask her what she needed help with.

If she needed only a bit of help then that was all he would provide since it would do more harm than good to give her too many instructions.

As he expected Jewel only had a few questions about the various poses of Boneless Man, which were solved either with an answer or a quick demonstration.

After helping them out, Yoze suddenly found that he had nothing to do while he waited for them to finish their training.

"Might as well keep improving my painting skills." Yoze thought to himself and walked into his bedroom where he moved his art supplies.

Just as Yoze was getting ready to start painting he saw from the corner of his eyes a Dark Blue spiritual energy in the shape of a whirlpool standing outside the inn through the walls. Usually, he would have ignored that random spiritual energy since many different people checked in and out of Ten Ton Inn he couldn't stop people from using the inn nor did he want to.

However, the moment Yoze caught sight of this dark blue whirlpool his eyes couldn't move away from it. His intuition gave him a warning that this particular spiritual energy was going to put his family in danger.

"If there is one danger, there could be two or three more," Yoze muttered to himself.

He looked around and noticed that there were more spiritual energies surrounding the inn with no intention of coming inside. Understanding that they might be part of the group of immortal cultivators that claimed to want to capture Tiki and Dreyer Yoze felt annoyed and angry. 

"Good thing they didn't come with puppets this time or else I wouldn't be able to gain anything even after capturing them." 

"How do I make sure that I will be able to capture them all?" After taking a minute to think of a plan, Yoze soon figured out the best possible way to capture them all without worrying about them escaping.

Making sure that everything was in place, Yoze secretly left his room without Jewel, Tiki, and Dreyer knowing and walked straight to the dark blue spiritual energy whirlpool. As he walked closer and closer to the entrance of the inn, Yoze placed his attention on seeing if his enemies reacted to his actions.

However even after he entered the range where he could hear the owner of the dark blue spiritual energy whirlpool breathing. They didn't react at all, instead, it seemed to Yoze that they didn't have a way of knowing where he was inside the building or what he was doing.

"That makes things easier," Yoze thought to himself.

He raised his hands and looked at his fingers with focus. After a few seconds, Yoze was able to create spiritual claws made out of the Armored Elephant's and the Serpent demon's spiritual energy forming multi-colored claws.

Then Yoze waited for the four immortal cultivators to make their move. He was going to strike the man with the dark blue spiritual energy first as he used spiritual suppression on the other three.

As long as they didn't have a special method to conceal their spiritual energy or protect it then Yoze felt his plan had a high chance to succeed. He also hoped that he could rope in other immortal cultivators that might be hiding amid the people.

As Yoze was waiting for them to make a move while he took them out of the darkness he didn't know that each one of the people he was targeting had no idea of the existence of the others and felt uneasy.

"Brother, are you sure that the information that the immortals are inside this inn is correct? Isn't it ridiculous for their test to kidnap one of their people?" a young boy's voice came out from a wooden doll wearing a suit and tie.

"Drax, I told you that the information came from the Masked Immortal Cultivator himself so there was a high likelihood this was true. But I'm not dumb enough to believe this information either." The man holding the wooden doll looked down and reassured it.
