The Human Giant

Chapter 211 211: Golden Pillars





With the weight of the battle axe in his hand, Yoze took the time to look at what the other two people had chosen. The first person was a young woman wearing a long black and white striped robe which paired nicely with her black and white dyed hair.

Regardless of her appearance, the young woman was surrounded by a thick fog of death spirituality, showing her actual age was much older. Yet, to still be alive and keep a strong mind showed her strength as she picked up a giant bow and arrow with images of howling wolves.

Just swinging around the bow in the air made a terrifying howling sound that sent chills down the spines of rogue cultivators near her. Then, with such a unique weapon in her hand, the woman let out a wide smile as she placed the arrow in her mouth and drew the bow as if to fire a shot.

"To draw that bow, her strength must be quite high." Watching the woman easily draw the bow with her skinny arms showed that she wasn't only experienced in drawing a bow but that her strength was almost disproportionate to her physical appearance.

From the bowstring's thickness, the bow's size, and many other factors, it could be seen that it took incredible strength that should only be possible if one practiced a strength-type body cultivation method. Yet, Yoze could tell the young woman didn't practice body cultivation methods or martial art but still was able to display so much raw strength.

After making a note of the woman, Yoze focused on the other man who had picked up his weapon after the rush. The young man, who appeared to be in his twenties, had spikey orange hair and orange-colored eyes and was only four feet tall. 

Though the young man was very small, he was ripped out of his mind. Just looking at the young man, who seemed to have a body fat ratio below one percent and had muscles that made him look like a bull bred to fight, made Yoze nod his head with respect. 

He was happy to see another person who appreciated the art of having a powerful body that only used muscles. He almost wanted to walk over to the young man and give him a pat on the shoulder, encouraging him on his journey.

When Yoze looked at the weapon the young man had selected, he couldn't help but feel that he didn't have to worry about the young man ever changing his path as he chose one of the largest weapons available. A giant greatsword whose blade was engraved with countless demons that were being struck by heavenly lightning.

Just from the design of the blade, Yoze could see that it was supposed to be a near-identical copy of the Lightning Demon Blade. A sword wielded by a Martial Grandmaster a thousand years ago was said to be one of the few martial artists who slayed a demon and used its bones, teeth, and claws to form the Lightning Demon Blade.

The Lightning Demon Blade was made to be the perfect weapon for the Martial Grandmaster, who was nearly 7 feet tall. So when wielded by most people, the great sword was too large and heavy for them to use.

This became almost comically ridiculous as the Lightning Demon Sword was around 6 feet long, which made it taller than the young man. Yet, in this young man's hands, the Lightning Demon Blade seemed hollow as he easily swung it, causing bursts of strong wind.

"Now that everyone has selected their weapons, we will begin with the first test." Patty calmly said as he clapped his hands.

Just as Patty gave the signal, Yoze felt his two-headed battle axe rapidly heating up in his hands as a golden glow began to emit from the weapon. The golden light spread throughout his entire body as it went into his pores.

As the golden light entered his body, Yoze felt as if he was dunked in warm water, and he felt extremely comfortable. Unfortunately, after a few seconds, the golden light left his body and was reabsorbed into the battle axe.

It wasn't just Yoze's weapon, but every rogue cultivator experienced the same thing with their weapon. Each of their weapons released an almost blinding golden light that invaded their bodies before being reabsorbed into the weapon's body.

A few seconds after the golden light was being reabsorbed, one of the elderly men's weapon, whose spiritual energy was on the brink of completely being eroded, released a golden pillar of light. The golden pillar reached almost 30 feet in height before stopping and showing three black tattoo marks inside.

"Grade 3 immortal cultivation talent. You are in the impure realm and are thus unqualified to pass this test." Patty with a cold voice.

As soon as the first golden pillar appeared, the rest quickly began to follow. One another after another, golden pillars rose into the sky with varying heights. 

Very soon, people began to realize that the size of the pillar was directly proportional to the person's immortal cultivation talent. So, for every grade a person's talent reached, the golden pillar would grow another 10 feet allowing everyone to easily see who had the best immortal cultivation talent.

With the average immortal cultivation talent rogue immortal cultivators possessed being around grade 2 to 3, whenever a golden pillar reached 40 feet in height, everyone knew couldn't help but give them cautious glances. Even though everyone knew that they would all fail, this test still allowed them to see which one of them held the best talent and thus could pose a big threat.

It didn't take long for Yoze's battle axe to finish its evaluation of his immortal cultivation talent and release its golden pillar. At this point, many rogue immortal cultivations had grown bored of the golden pillars. So they stopped paying attention to most of them.

But when they saw the one coming from Yoze, they couldn't help but be curious about what kind of talent someone this freakishly large could have. Was his talent only average, below average, or would he have a grade-four talent? 

In a blink of an eye, Yoze's golden pillar passed thirty feet and made many rogue immortal cultivators squint their eyes as they marked him as a threat. In another blink, it passed 40 feet, reached a height of 50 feet, and still showed signs of continuous growth.

This immediately sent alarm bells ringing in all the rogue immortal cultivators' heads as they watched with their mouths wide open as they saw what should have been improbable, if not impossible. Even the immortals looked at the golden pillar with surprise as they never expected to find a rogue cultivator with enough talent to join an immortal sect on his own.
