The Human Giant



As the Beast Hunter members were starting to realize that their sect was destroyed, Yoze returned to the third floor of the library after making sure that the entrance to the library was blocked. He even made sure that no one had the idea of trying to loot the library by making the giant serpent stay on the first floor and release its powerful aura.

And with an extremely powerful and dangerous aura leaking through the doors of the library, the few looters that had realized the situation and decided to take advantage of this opportunity got rid of any thought of attempting to enter the library.

So while the entire Beast Hunter Sect was in chaos, Yoze simply watched the blood-red crystal releasing more intense heat and the blood-red light emitting from the crystal grow brighter and larger. As he watched on, Yoze felt his guess that this crystal was some sort of beacon more and more likely.

And the chances that this blood-red crystal was some sort of revival device or bomb decreased the more time passed by. Just taking the time since Yoze killed the young bald man and when he found the crystal into account made this crystal a terrible revival device or bomb.

With how long it took Yoze to return down the stairs to check on the bald immortal had plenty of time to revive and escape without anyone noticing. As for the possibility of the blood-red crystal being some type of bomb or cursed device it was even smaller.

It was well known that the best time to use bombs and curse devices was when they were near their targets and when they were unprepared. So the best time would have been when Yoze had first killed the young bald man since he would not have been prepared to face any crystal bomb or curse device.

Even if there was some reason why the young bald immortal couldn't set off the bomb or curse device the moment Yoze killed the young bald immortal, the second best timing would have been when he first approached the young bald immortal's body. Yet even when the blood-red crystal had several instances where Yoze was near it nothing had happened.

That just showed that even the small possibility that the bald immortal had revived and just planted this blood-red crystal to attract his attention to ambush or kill him by exploding it was extremely small. And became nearly impossible after Yoze swept the entire library for any spiritual energy signatures and wiped out everything that was still alive.

"If this is a beacon that only leaves the question of how far away that bald immortal is from the Beast Hunter Sect. It doesn't seem likely that the immortal to be in a whole different region or too far away or this beacon would be nearly useless."

"Since any animal or person who accidentally steps on it could break the beacon much less the immortal's enemies who would never want to deal with the possibility of being tracked. If I was the bald immortal I would at most be comfortable with being a day's worth of journey away." 

After figuring that it might take a while for the bald immortal to arrive, Yoze decided that it would be in his best interest to boost his fighting capabilities as much as possible in the time he had left. Even though for the past several weeks he has been putting his immortal cultivation first he had never stopped practicing his martial arts nor did he stop trying to improve his skill in his spiritual energy.

With how much he had improved in that time frame Yoze was confident that he could kill the Three-Headed Fox demon with ease and most demons that were around the age of 30 years old. However, even though he was confident in his ability to deal with demons Yoze was much less sure how he would deal with immortals.

Their ability to cast extremely powerful spells and abilities was much less of a concern for him compared to their rumored ability to come back to life. While Yoze wasn't sure about how the bald immortal's immortality worked he felt the need to be prepared to be under the constant threat of retaliation.

"Come out!" 

Just as Yoze was about to begin his training he heard a shockingly loud and angry male voice that was identical to the young bald man's coming from outside the library. Hearing the voice of the dead young bald man made Yoze's heart race from excitement as he used his spiritual senses to lock onto the young bald man's spiritual energy.

It didn't take long before Yoze found a rapidly approaching orange ball of spiritual energy coming toward him from inside the forest. Seeing that his theory of the blood-red crystal was almost confirmed, Yoze grabbed the blood-red crystal to see if the bald immortal reaction changed.

Just as he expected the moment Yoze picked up the blood-red crystal it began to release its blood red Light even faster while he heard the bald immortal shout again.

"Found you!"

After confirming that the bald immortal could sense that he had picked up the blood-red crystal, Yoze decided to meet the bald immortal head-on. Even though most people who would have been in his position would have decided to wait inside the library for additional time to prepare, Yoze felt that it wasn't in his best interest.

For one any additional time that he gained would also be gained by the bald immortal. So just as he prepared for the bald immortal to arrive at the library, the bald immortal would also get time to figure out the best ways to kill him and possibly deal with the problem of Yoze devouring his spiritual energy.

Not only that there wasn't much he could have done to prepare to fight against an immortal. Even though Yoze had been training his skill in his witchcraft he imagined that all the basic spells and techniques that he had learned wouldn't bring as much value to the fight compared to how much time he would need to prepare it.
