The Human Giant



Yoze shook his head as he got rid of his unnecessary worry. Even though it seemed that a demon's and immortal's ability to stay alive was robust, they could still be killed at the end of the day.

It just took special tools and required him to be much stronger than them. But, as long as he didn't stop his training and continued his development, he should be capable of handling any challenges that came his way.

"Both the Demon Summit and Immortal Sect should be arriving soon, which doesn't give me too much time to prepare. As for the Immortal Sect, I don't have much to worry about now that I have acquired cultivation talent above the Impure realm.

"If my understanding is correct, then right now, my talent would be categorized as in the lower end of the Pure realm. Only when my talent reached grade 8 would I cross into the Crystal Realm. "

"Grade 9 should be in the Earth realm of talent, and grade 10 would be in the Heaven realm of talent. So theoretically, I can never get a Heaven-rank talent, but that doesn't matter as long as I collect more talents related to immortal cultivation and crystal energy."

"My cheat might not allow me to reach the peak of every talent category, but it does allow me to be the best with quantity. So attending the immortal sect's arrival is paramount to increasing my talent in immortal cultivation."

"It would be best if I could join the immortal sect so immortal cultivators and immortals can surround me. The more I am surrounded with, the higher the chances that one of them will have a special talent that I didn't know I needed to have."

"Immortal cultivation, spiritual body cultivation, and martial arts are quite compatible with each other. And having all three will just make me a nightmare for any of my opponents to deal with." 

"Even though my immortal cultivation is far behind the other two, I believe that I can make it catch up with enough effort. Especially if I join an immortal sect and start collecting talents." Yoze's eyes sparkled as he thought about much of a deadly force he would become once he created his first crystal nerve.

After calculating how much time he had left before the immortal sect was said to arrive, he predicted that not only would he be confident that he would have created his first crystal nerves, but he might even be able to create a second set. In the grand scheme of immortal cultivation, reaching the first or even the second level of Nerve Accumulation wasn't impressive.

But for Yoze, this was an essential step in the path, and this small step would have massive implications for his battle prowess. Once he created his first set of crystal nerves, he would be able to use the spells that were listed inside the Fire Immortal manual and the Immortal Tattoo manual.

These spells were powerful enough to kill Bloodmasters even in the hands of ordinary rogue immortals. But in the hands of Yoze, their lethality was bound to increase drastically as Yoze broke their limits.

He especially looked forward to the spells that were inside the Immortal Tattoo manual since they would allow him to use mortal tattoos in replacement of immortal tattoos. One of the many spells required Yoze to tattoo an animal or monster on his back.

Once the tattoo had been tattooed with enough detail to be nearly realistic, he could pump it up with crystal energy, and at a moment's notice, he could summon that animal or monster. To Yoze, this was a great spell, but the hard limit to the size, strength, and other factors made it so that only Blood Master realm animals could be imprinted.

For immortals like Immortal Welse, having a Blood Master realm beast wasn't much to improve their combat strength, and it required extra attention to summon these creatures. So for them, it simply wasn't worth the effort to continue using such a spell when they were stronger.

This was true even for Yoze. Having Blood Realm beasts didn't increase his combat strength much. But just like beast cultivation, he hoped that he could break the limits of this technique to the point that there was no limit. 

As long as he tattooed a monster with enough detail would be able to summon them. With no limit, Yoze predicted that he could just tattoo an extremely powerful demon or immortal on his back and allow them to crush all his enemies for him.

There was even another spell called Blood Tattoos, where by using his blood mixed with a hundred different humans, he could create another body for himself. This body wouldn't necessarily be a clone or have any conscious thought but paired with another spell known as Tattoo Transformation, it was pretty valuable.

Tattoo Transformation would allow Yoze himself to turn into a tattoo and imprint himself onto another person. Paired with the body he created with Blood Tattoos, he could just have another body to cultivate or see as a disguise.

As Yoze read through the ten spells listed inside the Immortal Tattoo, he couldn't help but be excited at the prospects. However, as he looked over everything he had memorized, he realized that other than the method to create Immortal Tattoos for when the user became immortal, there was nothing else.

There were no other spells for once the user became immortal, there was no additional information about higher ranks above immortal, and neither were there any further details about what being an immortal might entail. There was only a single sentence that allowed Yoze to know that the road after becoming immortal was only passing the first significant gate.

"Congratulations on becoming Immortal and creating your Immortal Tattoos. From now on, there are no more paved roads for you to travel down, only a dense forest that you must clear yourself."
