With the Leopard demon having to deal with the weight of Yoze's inner vigor it was forced to slow his advance but that wasn't enough to stop it. Soon it reached the path where the Serpent demon's spiritual energy flowed.
The crystal clear green spiritual energy circulating through Yoze's body radiated heavy oppression and shimmered with sharpness. From time to time the stream of spiritual energy would become slightly bigger as some strands went rogue and departed to be absorbed into his flesh.
"Hiss!"
Sensing the leopard demon's arrival the Serpent demon's spiritual energy shook as it gathered and reformed to create a model of the Serpent demon. The Serpent demon's spiritual energy model hissed with an oppressive tone as its highly detailed scales and sharp claws pointed toward the Leopard demon.
"Now that I see your true form, I seem to have overestimated your strength." The Leopard demon growled as it manipulated its spiritual energy to create a spike to attack the Serpent demon.
"Hiss!" The Serpent demon was quick to also take action but made it clear that it wasn't going to fight head-to-head with the Leopard demon instead in favor of dodging its attacks.
With the home-ground advantage and the Leopard demon's physical form being burdened by Yoze's inner vigor, the Serpent demon was able to avoid all the attacks coming its way. With each of its attacks unable to land on their target, the Leopard demon was feeling uneasy as it felt that the Serpent demon was acting too passive.
It gave off the impression it was waiting for something to come to help. However, that should be impossible since the Leopard demon was attacking Yoze's spiritual energy directly. He should have been using all of his strength now and shouldn't be able to conjure up additional strength.
"Roar!!"
"Roar!"
A chill ran through the Leopard demon as it heard the roars of other demons rushing at it. A wave of deep blue spiritual energy that seemed to be as heavy as a Mountain of metal surged toward the Leopard demon.
Due to its quick reflexes, the deep blue spiritual energy attack missed its target as the Leopard demon managed to dodge at the last second. However, that wasn't the end of the Leopard demon's suffering as it felt a chunk of its blood and spiritual energy be bitten off.
Turning around, the Leopard demon saw the spiritual energy model of the Three-Headed Fox demon retreating as it devoured and absorbed the spiritual energy before spitting out the Leopard demon's blood to nourish Yoze's body.
"How do you have multiple types of spiritual energies!?" The Leopard demon couldn't believe what it was seeing.
Three different types of spiritual energy reside in the same body. Not only that, two of the spiritual energies seemed to have enough control that they took the form of two different demons.
"Roar!!"
After missing its attack the deep blue spiritual energy felt dissatisfied with its performance the Elephant demon's spiritual energy let out a roar of frustration. Shocking the Leopard demon even more as it watched the deep blue spiritual energy reform into a model of the Elephant demon.
"Three spiritual energies, three spiritual body cultivations, how are you alive!?"
Sensing the foreign blood of a demon, a force deep within Yoze's blood awakened and gobbled the blood with ease. The soft satisfied baa of a goat echoed from Yoze's blood as the demon blood was used to nourish and heal the wounds inside Yoze's body.
The feeling of healing using demon blood was astonishing as it made Yoze feel energized like he had drunk five cups of coffee. He didn't even know that his Goat talent would have had such a usage since he mainly used it for improving his level 6 Mindless Legs.
Initially, Yoze was a bit worried that his Spiritual energies wouldn't be able to handle the Leopard demon since it had the protection of its blood. Luckily it seemed he didn't have to worry since it appeared that his spiritual energies and Goat talent could handle this threat.
However, after experiencing this Yoze knew he needed a better way to kill demons spiritually instead of putting his life in danger in hopes they entered his body. His mind turned toward the Leopard demon's method of entering other creatures' bodies.
If he could figure out how to send out one or more of his spiritual energies into other creatures' bodies could he control them like puppets? However, Yoze put those thoughts on the back burner since he was still in a dangerous situation
"How are you doing? Is that holey demon dead? Or are you losing and need me to chop off your head?" Noticing Yoze opened his eyes, Jewel rapidly fired questions to know the situation.
"I'm fine this demon wasn't as strong as I thought it was going to be since it was much older compared to the other demons I killed. Also, you can put away the sword that wouldn't be able to cut me?" Yoze hastily replied since he saw that Jewel was drawing out her sword.
Even though he couldn't be cut when he activated his Iron Skin inner vigor he still felt the force of the attacks.
"Really? Didn't you say last time you had a tough fight against a younger demon, how are you so easily able to deal with this one?" Knowing that Yoze was right that she couldn't cut off his head, Jewel put down her sword but didn't sheath it just in case something happened.
"I'm that good," Yoze answered honestly.
He had collected many talents over the years and these talents often complemented other talents allowing his progress in many fields to be incredibly fast. What Yoze could achieve in a few months was more than what others could do after years of training.
This included spiritual body cultivation training, Yoze had three different grade 9 spiritual body cultivation talents that components with each other. Also due to the fact they conflicted with each other due to colliding in certain areas, Yoze's spiritual energy never settled instead due to the collisions his spiritual energy was always increasing.
At the moment each of his spiritual energies had more spiritual energy on their own than the Elephant demon and just like they did with the Elephant demon his spiritual energies would often work together to deal with external threats. That all compounded to make the current situation for the Leopard demon even worse as it struggled to come to terms that it could be witnessing a creature having multiple spiritual energies.
According to what the Leopard demon knew no creature could have multiple spiritual energy since spiritual energy was unique to each person. It couldn't be changed at all much less could one have multiple spiritual body cultivations.
The best thing that could happen from having multiple spiritual energies was that they would tear each other apart while the creature's body got destroyed and if lucky they will die quickly so they don't suffer any pain.
For Yoze to have three different types of spiritual energy scared the Leopard demon as it couldn't imagine how powerful a demon had to be to have multiple types of spiritual energy. What made it fear even more was that it couldn't tell which one was Yoze's main spiritual energy but it couldn't find it.
All three types of spiritual energy seemed to have as much intelligence and control as a regular demon would have with their spiritual energies. It was like the Leopard demon was fighting against multiple demons at the same time, it was being overwhelmed. It also feared that there could be a hidden fourth spiritual energy that was waiting to ambush it.
"He must be using a special technique to have implanted other demons' spiritual energies into his body. But he can only control them as long as his spiritual energy is intact." The Leopard demon's mind raced as the thought of Yoze having the ability to turn it into a spiritual puppet terrified it.
"Fight me, coward!" The Leopard demon knew that its chances of surviving were low and the only hope was to kill Yoze's main spiritual energy so it roared hoping to grab his attention.
