The Human Giant



Yoze's danger sense ran wild the moment the red pill with blue marks formed and knew that he had to get as far away from Welse as possible to escape being turned into chunks of bloody meat. Already witnessing the durability of immortals that were comparable to the demons and even more so, Yoze felt that he needed to come up with a better way of dealing with them.

Physically killing the immortals he met was not the smartest thing possible and neither is trying to kill them spiritually like regular humans and demons. Immortal Welse was already a pain for Yoze to deal with since he had blown up the majority of his body yet Immortal Welse still maintained enough energy and mental awareness to launch devastating attacks.

"Great, I thought that my physical defense was no longer my weakness but now it seems that I still need to improve it massively and increase my speed as well in case I need to escape." 

Making a mental note to himself, Yoze gave up on trying to finish off Immortal Welse and instead focused on escaping. The only thing that he regretted was that he had to temporarily give up on a large amount of his spiritual energy.

If it was a demon who encountered Immortal Welse and sent such a large amount of spiritual energy only to lose it, they would be not only devastatingly heartbroken. They might also die spiritually due to losing such a high percentage of their spiritual energy. 

But for Yoze this loss was not that bad even though he would be set back by quite a lot. He would have preferred to keep everything he had but losing so much of his spiritual energy only made him feel bad. 

He didn't have to worry about dying spiritually due to a high loss of spiritual energy due to his body having a much higher amount of spiritual energy circulating in his spiritual body cultivation pathways. For ordinary demons, they would only have one spiritual body cultivation talent and thus only be able to have one pathway for their spiritual energy.

With only one pathway that was filled with one type of spiritual energy demons quickly found that their spiritual energy would become stagnant forcing them to either devour spiritual energy from other creatures or find some other means to get more spiritual energy. So every time they use spiritual attacks with a majority of their spiritual energy they run the risk of losing it all.

Once they lose their spiritual energy they die spiritually and are forced to rely on their body's instincts to get enough spiritual energy to revive. But like the case with the Leopard demon and the Elephant demon, once they lose the majority of their spiritual energy they become easy targets for Yoze and other demons.

For Yoze he would never run into that problem because even if he sent every last drop of spiritual energy he could his body would always have enough to allow him to survive spiritually. Not only that due to the conflicting nature of his spiritual energies his body was always producing spiritual energy giving him a strong safety net.

So to Yoze he could recover from this loss after a few months and a few demon hunts. Right now his main concern was surviving this battle without having his body blown to smithereens which would not give him the chance to revive.

The moment Yoze made his decision he immediately used his Skipper movement technique to reach his full speed and cover a large distance away from Immortal Welse.

"Boom!!!"

Before Yoze could even hear the explosion he felt an immense amount of heat slam into his back. Already prepared to take the strong blast, Yoze activated the full force of all his inner vigor and his blood armor on full force to increase his defensive ability as much as possible. 

Even with his defenses at their strongest, Yoze still felt immense pain as he endured the powerful explosion. He could only see a bright red light around him even with his eyes closed.

Yoze could sense his blood armor being destroyed over and over again as it struggled to defend against the explosion that surrounded his entire body. It didn't take long before his blood armor could last and Yoze felt the force of an immortal's self-explosion firsthand.

Luckily due to the combination of his Iron Skin and Iron Muscles that had both been upgraded to level 5 during the past several weeks, several of his other defense body cultivation methods, and his body just being incredibly strong and durable Yoze dealt with the remaining blast better than he initially thought.

By the time the explosion had been completely extinguished, a large chunk of the forest was turned into black ash, and all that was left was a giant and deep crater that is half of the Beast Hunter Sect. Meanwhile, Yoze was lying in the outer ring of the crater completely soaked in his blood, and seemed to have lost 30 percent of his body mass.

"Does that immortal still have a body after that explosion?" 

Even though Yoze was seriously injured he didn't place much thought on the damage to his body since he could always heal with time. What he was worried about was whether Immortal Welse was able to keep enough of his body to continue the fight.

Though Yoze is confident in his fighting abilities, he felt less confident in being able to continue to fight against Immortal Welse in his current state. Especially if Immortal Welse was able to keep his body intact or maybe he had revived as soon as his body had been destroyed allowing him to fight with full strength.

"Is that Immortal Welse's bone sword?" Yoze's eyes opened wide as he suddenly noticed that the bone sword that Immortal Welse had been carrying when he first arrived was flying toward him.

What surprised Yoze was that the bone sword was flying toward him with murderous intent leaking out of its body. It was shaking and trembling clumsily in the air as it approached him.
