The Human Giant

Chapter 184 184: Beast Hunter Gathering





Yoze was able to put two and two together and was able to figure out that he had encountered a real immortal. He had 90 percent confidence that he wasn't wrong about that fact either as only real immortals and demons could survive after having their spiritual energy devoured.

While Yoze had never met a real immortal and not an immortal cultivator, he had seen real demons. He had long had a theory that as long as a demon still hadn't been eaten to its very bones and had some spiritual energy flowing through their bodies it would be able to regain all its spiritual energy by killing creatures and truly come back to life.

From his experience with the Armored Elephant demon and the Leopard demon who he had devoured their spiritual energy, he knew that their bodies could still move and fight even after devouring the majority of their spiritual energy. With their powerful bodies and instincts remaining he was confident they could still destroy villages, and towns, and possibly wreak havoc in cities.

That meant with time every demon could come back to life and become a nightmare for all their enemies. 

However, immortals were not demons who had taken control of their spiritual energy so there was very little possibility that immortals came back to life using that method. Even though Yoze himself was an immortal cultivator he didn't have much knowledge of how immortal cultivators became immortal. 

Since that knowledge wasn't passed down to rouge immortal cultivators with terrible talent in immortal cultivation. Not only that, the rogue immortal cultivator's realms were even restricted as they were forced to remain stuck in the Crystal Skull realm, unable to proceed to the Crystal Brain realm where the path to immortality could be unlocked.

That didn't mean that Yoze was completely clueless about immortals since he could infer that immortals must have some way to protect or regenerate their spiritual energy just like demons. If they didn't then immortals simply couldn't compete with a demon, immortals would even face difficulty facing witches.

Just from his experience, Yoze had seen multiple incidents of witchcraft influencing spiritual energy. From the time Dreyer was able to reduce and hide the presence of his and Tiki's spiritual energies and how the New Swampscott City prisons could hide spiritual energy from being detected from a distance.

Even abnormal entities are capable of manipulating spiritual energy such as the Undead Baby who created a black pillar of death spiritual energy and eradicated an entire town turning them into its army of undead. There was also the abnormal entity that implanted a blood heart into Blood Master Steel.

When Blood Master Steel was on the brink of death and revived as a stronger version of himself he showed capabilities of using a mixture of spiritual energy and inner vigor as an attack method.

Just like how even powerful rogue immortal cultivators could do nothing but become vegetables when they faced Yoze's spiritual attacks, immortals would simply become immortal vegetables. Against opponents like these, it would be difficult if not impossible for immortals to be able to claim the title of being immortal without a way to deal with spiritual energy.

Seeing that there was a glowing blood crystal right in front of him instantly alerted Yoze that he was dealing with an enemy that must have some means of surviving having their spiritual energy devoured or at least being able to alert others of their demise.

"I finally met a real immortal. The fact that this crystal is here means that there is a high chance that the young bald immortal will come back. And that I can finally get talents from a true immortal." Yoze grinned as he looked at the blood-red crystal and felt his heart face with excitement.

"But first let me deal with the Beast Hunter sect's upper echelon so I can focus on the fight with the bald immortal and not worry about them running away."

Not wanting his previous targets to escape during his intense conflict with his first immortal, Yoze decided to kill the Beast Hunter Sect's elders and Sect master before coming back. So he raced down the stairs of the library and walked outside to see that many of the Beast Hunter sect's members had deep frowns on their faces.

"Excuse me, but why does everyone seem to be in a bad mood?" Yoze walked up to a random martial artist with a fox and asked why it seemed that worry had penetrated the sect.

"You must have not heard but just yesterday the Martial Wheel Sect had been destroyed." The martial artist's frown deepened as he pet his pet fox to comfort himself.

"Before you ask what that has to do with us, I'll tell you that it was done by a single person. From the rumors, the person was a Martial Grandmaster who just killed all the Martial Wheel Sect elites without a word before leaving."

"Do you know what that means? It means that he must have been hired to deal with the Martial Wheel sect and who is the most likely hire. It is the New Swamp Town!" The martial artist's pats became heavier as he became more nervous.

"That means that we could be next on the list. Because of that, all the small martial art sects are gathering all their members to make some kind of announcement." The martial artist sighed as he stopped patting his pet fox.

"Does that mean all of our elders and the sect master are also going to be at the gathering today?" Yoze asked casually.

"Most likely, the only ones that might not join are the elders who are too far away to be able to make it back to the sect headquarters. I hope that whoever destroyed the Martial Wheel sect doesn't come after us." The martial artist was about to continue when he felt Yoze's hand touch his shoulder.

"Don't worry about it, even if he shows up he won't kill you since you are too weak to even have a chance to revive the Beast Hunter Sect."
