The Human Giant



The most important reason however was that the battle between the bald immortal and him would most likely destroy the library causing him to lose all the books inside. Even though Yoze didn't value the martial art books inside the library as much as the animal records since they both were in the same location he already regarded them as his property.

He didn't want his new property to get destroyed the moment he had just acquired them and still wanted to take some of them home. For those few reasons, Yoze punched a huge hole in the wall on the third floor that faced the direction of the bald immortal.

The blast from his punch created such a loud explosion that it attracted the bald immortal's attention while alerting the Beast Hunter sect members who had just figured out the situation. With the combination of an angry scream and the deafening explosion many of the sect members knew that they had to escape before they got caught up in the crossfire. 

After creating the large hole Yoze leaped directly toward the bald immortal's spiritual energy and in an instant he covered the distance between them. Landing right in front of the supposed bald immortal.

"Boom" 

Even though Yoze wasn't trying to make a scene the moment his feet touched the earth, the ground beneath his feet was crushed and cracks formed around him due to his weight. 

"Hmph! You decided to show your face, which saves me the effort of having to do it myself before I teach you a lesson." 

Hearing the young bald man's voice, Yoze turned his attention toward the bald immortal and was surprised to see that he had a completely different appearance. He was no longer the bald young man that was covered head to toe in blue tattoos.

The bald immortal now had a full head of blonde hair that waved around in the air as if there was the wind. He was quite shorter compared to his old body being only around four feet tall meaning that Yoze simply dwarfed him.

If he wanted to, Yoze imagined that he could simply step on the bald immortal and wouldn't even notice. In the bald immortal's right hand was a sharp sword that was as long as he was and seemed to be made out of some type of animal bones.

The moment Yoze's eyes fell on the sword he had a feeling that the bone sword was alive as the mere aura that it unleashed completely overpowered the immortal's presence. Instead of feeling that the immortal had chosen and wielded this bone sword, it felt to Yoze that the sword was the real master.

Even though Yoze felt that the bone sword was extremely strange he turned his attention back to the short immortal. As he sensed an intense heat radiating from the short immortal's body and was rapidly increasing.

The hotter the short immortal body became the more the blue tattoos that covered every inch of his skin moved around and shifted. To Yoze it seemed to him that the mythical creatures that had been tattooed to the immortal skin seemed to be coming to life. 

What astonished him the most was that soon after he started to pay attention to the blue tattoos they quickly spread on top of the immortal's bone sword acting as if they were always there.

"Send a talent mark to that man."

Not wanting to stall any longer, Yoze immediately sent out his remaining talent mark hoping to be able to acquire a fantastic talent.

[Name: Welse Flame]

[Age: 200 years old]

[Talents: Crystal Nerves (Grade 7), Immortal Tattoo (Grade 5), Swordsmanship (Grade 3), Harvesting (Grade 2), Rapid Calculation (Grade 2), Love Making (Grade 4), Crystal Absorption (Grade 5), Toxic Speech (Grade 4)]

If there were any doubts left in Yoze's mind that the young bald man was not immortal was immediately tarnished the moment he looked at his age. Just looking at the impossibly old age while maintaining such a youthful body could only be accomplished by immortals and demons.

As Yoze looked at the wide range of talent that was within immortal Welse's arsenal he almost couldn't help himself but become excited when he saw the grade level of his Crystal Nerves. They had surpassed the impure realm of immortal talent and reached the top of the pure realm. 

Not only that there was also the fact that immortal Welse also had an additional talent for absorbing crystals which would be incredibly useful in accelerating his immortal cultivation. As Yoze examined Immortal Welse's talents in silence while ignoring what he had said before, Immortal Welse couldn't help but curse his luck.

He couldn't believe that he had just lost his body to a martial artist. Not only that even though he had brought his true body along this time he still felt an incredibly strong pressure coming out from Yoze's body.

What made him even angrier was the fact that not only was Yoze ignoring him but Yoze was looking at him like he was a fat piece of meat that was going to be eaten up. If it wasn't for the fact he was still in the middle of unleashing his entire power then he would have attacked Yoze immediately.

"Can we settle this over a hot cup of tea or maybe some coffee if you prefer it?"

"What?" Immortal Welse looked at Yoze with confusion as he couldn't understand why he chose to suddenly try to diffuse the situation.

"You see I am a scholar of New Swampscott City and I was sent here to destroy the Beast Hunter Sect. Since I was tasked to kill all the upper echelon of the sect I mistook you as one of their elders so I attacked you."

"If I had known that you were an all-mighty immortal that has been protecting humanity from the shadows against those terrible demons I would have abandoned my mission immediately. So I apologize not only on my behalf but to all the people of New Swampscott City and New Swamp Town." Yoze said, trying his best to display a saddened and regretful look on his face.

"Hmph! You think I'm so stupid that I'll let you go with a simple apology. You must be delusional." 

"Wait a minute, are you thinking that I'll take you in as a disciple and teach the ways of my immortality just because you are a smart scholar? If so then I'm afraid to tell you that the chances of me taking you in are close to zero." Immortal Welse said as he could feel that he was reaching the peak of his powers.

Yoze looked at Immortal Welse and felt disappointed that his effort to get Welse's immortal cultivation method failed. But he didn't let his disappointment get to him since he expected this result and only wanted to test the waters before the fight began.

"In that case allow me to make the first move." Sensing that the intense heat coming from immortal Welse's body continued to increase, Yoze immediately activated his blood armor.
