The Human Giant



"Yes, not only did the Thorn Rose Cultivation Sect elders have arrived but even Blood Master Scarlett and Blood Master Steel have come too."

"They wanted to meet you so I rushed over as fast as I could hear. Don't worry your father is still out shopping with Tiki and Dreyer so he isn't in any danger." Jewel added after catching her breath.

She had known Yoze long enough to know that he cared deeply about his father's safety. If he thought that she had left him alone with a bunch of Blood Masters that could be hostile would have made him angered him more than the Blood Master showing up.

She even knew that while he was fine with her scamming him out of some money and demon meat from time to time he would be pissed if she tried to do the same thing to his family. So she made sure to add that his father was safe and sound before continuing further.

As she expected even though he didn't ask yet he visibly relaxed hearing his father wasn't in any immediate danger.

"That's good that he isn't in danger. Did they say what they wanted from me?" Yoze asked.

"They only said they wanted you to help them settle a dispute. As for what kind of dispute and how they wanted you to solve it they wouldn't say even when I asked them." Jewel shook her head.

"That's fine, what kind of shopping is my dad doing?" 

"He is getting food, spices, and some other things." 

"So it is going to take him all day then. That is good, before we head back I wanted to ask you if you knew where I can find these herbs." Hearing that his father was going shopping for food, Yoze knew instinctively that it was going to take a while before he returned home.

As a food and spice lover, his father loved to shop for the best food possible and made sure to buy tons of it since Yoze needed to eat a lot. Whenever his father went out for food he only returned home when the sun was beginning to set.

Since his father wasn't in danger and there wasn't an urgent need to go back, Yoze wanted to see if he could gather the required herbs for Iron Muscles before he went back.

"Uhh okay. Let's see Iron Lettuce, Crimson Ginger... These are rare but not too rare to buy in bulk as long as you know the place."

"We can get everything by visiting three large herb shops but they are spread around the city so it is going to take at least 3 hours." Jewel's eyes twitched seeing how little he cared about Blood Masters wanting to see him.

But knowing that everything was secondary when it came to his family and martial arts she wasn't surprised. Even though she had seen him kill a demon without suffering from major injuries it still took her some time to get out of the mindset that Blood Masters were extremely strong and important.

Since Yoze didn't want to meet them yet, she wasn't going to try and persuade him otherwise since she knew it wouldn't work. 

After knowing that Jewel did know where to get these herbs quickly Yoze nodded his head and asked her to take the lead. 

A few hours later, Jewel was dumping buckets of boiling medicine water on Yoze's body. The blood-red water that reeked of iron was quickly absorbed into his muscles as he performed exercises that tore his muscle fibers.

After splashing the 20th bucket on Yoze, Jewel wished she had tried harder to convince Yoze's father to take her shopping with him. If she had known that she would be doing hard manual labor to help Yoze train because he had grown too big for any tube she wouldn't have easily relented. 

Dumping another bucket, Jewel looked at Yoze's slightly red skin returning to its original color and felt amazed to see that he had once again broken through. This was the fourth time in less than two hours and if it wasn't because they were running out of medicine water she felt he would continue to break through.

"That's enough, the remaining water isn't enough to allow me to continue training." After breaking through, Yoze pulled up his system window.

[Name: Yoze]

[Age: 23 ]

[Talents Categories: Comprehension, Art, Physical, Martial Arts, Spiritual, Crystal, Weapon, Hunting, Other]

[Technique Categories: Martial Arts, Blood Arts, Spiritual Arts, Crystal Arts]

[Martial Arts Technique (Recent Changes)]

[Iron Muscles (Level 4: 2%)]

[Talent Marks: 2]

Reaching the fourth level of Iron Muscles made Yoze lick his lips as he had already surpassed the limits of Iron Muscles twice in such a short amount of time. This was in part to his talents but also the fact his Iron Skin had reached level four.

Cultivating Iron Muscles required a martial artist to already have reached the peak of Iron Skin. Only then could they train to make their muscles tougher than steel.

But Iron Muscles could not surpass the limits of what a peak first-rate martial artist could achieve since it wasn't a Blood Master body cultivation method. So it didn't take users of Iron Skin long to reach the peak of Iron Muscles, only 5 years or so was enough.

Yoze's Iron Skin on the other hand had surpassed its limit and was much stronger compared to its old peak. So when he started to train in Iron Muscles he immediately reached the peak of level 1.

Shortly after he reached the peak of level 2, Iron Muscles's supposed limit. Not satisfied with how easily he reached the limit of Iron Muscles and still had tons of resources to train, he decided to surpass Iron Muscles's limits until he couldn't.

That resulted in him reaching the fourth level of Iron Muscles and now his muscles without inner vigor activated were four times stronger than normal versions. When he activated his inner vigor he could stop an attack from a Blood Master without suffering too much.
