The Human Giant

248 Chapter 248: The Six New Members



"I made it just in time." Yoze smiled to himself as he saw that the immortals from the Immortal Palace were waiting on the small hill outside New Swampscott City.

As he grew closer he noticed that the number of rogue immortal cultivators that had survived was much smaller compared to when the third trial had just begun. The number was so small in fact that only six of the top ten spots were filled due to the large number of deaths.

Out of the six rogue immortal cultivators that had survived lining the Endless Forest for a whole week all of them were quite strong from Yoze's point of view. They all had a cultivation of the Crystal Skull realm and most of them were quite old as well.

This was especially the case for four out of the six rogue immortal cultivators. Out of the four immortal cultivators, there was a pair of twins with long black hair that reached their waists.

These two brothers shared the same funny fashion sense as they both wore long black robes that were too big for their bodies. They wore a large black hat with a red or green colored ribbon that wrapped around the hat that added some color to their outfits.

What made them stand out even more compared to everyone else at the time was that they both had long horizontal scars across their faces. However, when Yoze look at them again those iconic scars had disappeared without a trace leaving behind only perfectly healthy skin.

Both of these twins had a weary look on their faces that one could only obtain from experiencing a lot for many years. Even though Yoze recognized these two brothers from before the third trial he couldn't help but be suspicious as they seemed to have undergone a large transformation.

While their bodies were the same and both took on the appearance of 25-year-old men that were as fit as a fiddle. Yoze saw that not only had their personalities dramatically changed but their spiritual energy was completely different.

Previously before the third trial, these two brothers shared similarly shaped spiritual energy that took on the shape of a hexagon but either took on a red or green color. Now as he examined them they only longer had that same shaped or colored spiritual energy.

For the brother that had a red colored ribbon on his hat, his spiritual energy was in the shape of a purple pyramid. While his brother with the green ribbon had a blue coffin-shaped spiritual energy.

Meaning that these two brothers had their bodies taken over by the other rogue immortal cultivators in the group. It didn't take long before Yoze was able to recall which of the other rogue immortal cultivators had similar shaped and colored spiritual energy after he narrowed it down to the strongest at the time.

"So those two old men managed to take over the bodies of these brothers during the trial. The fact that none of the immortals are throwing a fuss about this shows that they didn't care about the lives of any of the rogue immortal cultivators." 

"I could only imagine the amount of carnage and rogue immortal cultivators murdering each other. But it makes sense that the trial would never be played fairly if it was done in the Branch Forest where there was nothing of threat to these immortal cultivators except themselves." 

After making a note to himself that he needed to look into how immortal cultivators typically took over bodies, Yoze turned his focus on the two people he had an interest in since he first saw them, Leo and Tamgo. Even though they didn't have a scratch on their bodies, Leo and Tamgo seemed to have also gone through their own transformations.

Leo, himself was now wearing a thick rhino suit that wrapped tightly around his small body providing a large boost in defense. Other than the small crack in the rhino's suit's mouth that allowed him to see, there were no other flaws that his enemies could take advantage of.

His suit of armor only had one flaw which was in an easily defensible position causing the one weakness to be easily protected. Yoze even imagined that if Leo wanted to he could learn some additional spells that could add additional protection to his eyes and mouth.

That way he could reduce the amount of damage he took if his enemies were ever able to bypass his defenses. If he ever became an immortal he could spend a few decades improving his Rhino Armor so that this flaw could be eliminated.

That way once he activated his Rhino Armor he would become an impenetrable fortress. And his enemies would have to pull out their hairs to try and figure out a powerful enough spell that was strong enough to destroy the Rhino Armor and fast enough to catch up to him.

Yoze also noticed the weary and anger-filled gaze Leo had toward the two twin brothers signaling to him that he already was developing powerful enemies which increased the importance of constantly improving his armor.

"Why does she have a rabbit?" 

When Yoze turned his focus back on Tamgo he first noticed that between her arms was a large rabbit that had ears that were too long for its body. Just from looking at the rabbit's body, Yoze predicted that it was at least a hundred pounds.

 And given the fact that a freakishly strong woman like Tamgo was covered in sweat from just carrying the rabbit it most likely weighed much more. What made Yoze much more interested was the fact that the rabbit had similar eyes to his monster wasp.

Eyes that signaled that the creature held intelligent thoughts and was sentient. Even though these eyes could be obtained with the Beast Human body cultivation method, Yoze's intuition pushed him to believe that the rabbit in Tamgo's arms was anything but an ordinary rabbit.

"I should check out its talents after grabbing a few talents from the immortals first." 

After making another note to himself to throw a talent mark or two in the rabbit's direction, Yoze turned his attention to the last rogue immortal cultivator that had survived the third trial. As he turned to look at the last survivor, Yoze noticed that she turned her gaze toward him.

"Impressive eyesight,"

Since he was still many miles away from where the immortals and rogue immortal cultivators were standing and tens of miles in the sky, he was certain that he looked like a random small black dot in the sky. For the rogue immortal cultivator that took on the appearance of a middle-aged woman to immediately lock eyes with his eye from such a distance was impressive.

After seeing that Yoze had also noticed her looking at her, the middle-aged woman quickly shifted her gaze toward the Wasp Monster below his feet and looked confused. While he was being analyzed himself, Yoze didn't stop his investigation of middle-aged women.

Even though she looked to be in the middle of her 30s, the thick black fog that was circling her spiritual energy and slowly eroding it, revealed that she was much older than her appearance. Similar to Tamgo, the fact that the middle-aged woman with short blonde hair was on the brink of dying from old age and yet kept a strong and mentally sharp mind showed that she was quite powerful.

To match the color of her hair the middle-aged woman wore a bright yellow suit that seemed to make her look younger and a nice pair of yellow leather shoes that were unfortunately covered in mud due to running around in the dirty forest. Since the middle-aged woman was the only one courageous enough to dare wear such a bright-colored outfit, she stood out like a sore thumb.

"I wonder if she had chosen those colors to grab the attention of the immortals and hopefully gain a powerful connection in the sect."

Though Yoze felt that the chances of the middle-aged woman choosing to use her clothing to stand out were slim, he couldn't deny that if she did do it on purpose, the results seemed to be positive. Since he noticed that the immortal Miessy was nodding her head toward the middle-aged woman with a pleased look on her face.

"It seems that the final person has finally arrived. We will be traveling to the West for a few days to show you where headquarters is located."

"After showing the location we recommend that you six work hard for a few months to break through to the Crystal Brain realm and gain a footing in the sect. Since you six are new and have reached a decent level throughout your years as rogue immortal cultivators it won't be difficult for you to find some people to ally with."

"But be aware that any of the immortal cultivators in the sect are going to be much stronger than any of you in the same realm. Simply because they are more talented and were able to use the sect's resources for much longer."
