The Human Giant



The oak tree growth was explosive and surprised Yoze as he could sense that the oak tree seemed to be filled with vitality. Regardless of how severe the previous damage it had sustained from having all its branches burned to ash, it regenerated it all in mere seconds.

Its green leaves seemed to shimmer in the intense sunlight as the smell of oil from its body rapidly became stronger. Even without guessing, Yoze knew that the green aura that had accumulated inside the fire was now entering the oak tree's body.

"This seems quite similar to spiritual body cultivation or maybe a body cultivation method. Maybe this is a mixture of life spiritual energy and some type of inner vigor that increases regeneration speed?" 

Yoze stared at the oak tree that had gotten a zenkai boost and calmly observed the green aura's effects on it. Even with the crazy growth causing the tree to become nearly 200 feet tall, he didn't feel worried.

"Simba, Mufasa, Nala, and Sarabi show this tree who is boss." 

With the oak tree's growth, Yoze commanded his newly reborn Three-Eyed Crows to fight against this more powerful tree. Even though he didn't think it was their opponent, he felt it would be a good warm-up for them to prepare for future battles.

"Caw!"

"Caw!"

"Caw!

"Caw!"

Even before Yoze could finish his sentence, Simba, Mufasa, Nala, and Sarabi made a move as they understood what he wanted them to do. After the glorious caws, each of them had their wings and claws covered in their blood that shimmered with a light blue color.

With the activation of four Blood Beasts, the air became heavy with the scent of metallic blood. A thin fog of dark blood formed around Simba, Mufasa, Nala, and Sarabi as they felt an intense power flowing through their bodies.

"Caw!!!!" 

Even though they didn't speak human language yet, Yoze blushed in embarrassment when he heard their shameless praise. 

After praising their new master, Simba, Mufasa, Nala, and Sarabi leaped into the air with a flap of their wings and disappeared. The vague sound of cracking electricity filled the air as the oak tree froze before a long black mark that seemed to be created by lightning strikes covered its body.

The four simultaneous lightning strikes nearly turned the oak tree into charcoal as its entire body turned black, with black smoke filling the sky. Still, the regeneration abilities of the oak tree were astounding as its burned bark fell off to reveal brand-new bark and fresh green leaves.

"Caw!!"

The angry caw from Mufasa filled the air as he hated that their combined strike couldn't kill the oak tree in one blow. Embarrassed that he couldn't deal with such a small sapling on his first attempt, Mustafa reappeared 300 feet above the air and dived straight for the oak tree.

"Crackle! Boom!"

Mufasa controlled his blood to cover his entire body in a second, turning himself into a blood meteor. Before the oak tree could react, it was split in half. One side was burned completely black from the inside out, leaving it no path to regenerate.

"Caw!!"

Not far behind, Simba appeared next to the oak tree like a ghost and covered the entire remaining side in a thin veil of his blood that was filled with light blue inner vigor that had the properties of lightning and electricity. What happened next was predictable as the remaining half of the oak tree experienced the full power of being struck by lightning...ten times in a row.

After turning the oak tree into a black charcoal art piece, Mufasa and Simba immediately flew away as they sensed Yoze's warning. As Yoze expected, after the oak tree was completely toasted, the green aura flew out of its body and tried to latch onto Simba.

Unfortunately, with Yoze's timely warning, Simba and Mufasa had escaped the green aura grasp just in time. 

With no other living target nearby, the green aura rushed to Yoze and the other crows as if it was determined to get inside their bodies. Understanding that Yoze wanted to capture the green aura, Scar and the rest of the Three-Eyed Crows flew into the air, forcing the green aura to have no choice but to rush to Yoze.

"Come here. I might not be able to devour you, but my spiritual energy can still form a cage around you." Yoze stated bluntly as he controlled and drew out his Armored Elephant and Serpent demon spiritual energies.

The dark blue and green combination of these two spiritual energies was then wrapped around the green aura, becoming the most oppressive, heavy, and armored prison imaginable. Even when all of the hundreds of strands of green aura repeatedly smashed into the spiritual energy cage, it could do no damage.

"Interestingly, some green aura had been lost when it stimulated the oak tree's growth. The amount was small, but it still had some loss."

As Yoze stared at the green aura's endless attempts to enter his body, he couldn't help but feel more intrigued about the anomaly that had infected all the oak seeds. However, when he looked at how long time remained for his talent marks to refresh, he could only temporarily put the green aura aside since he couldn't get more information from it.

After settling everything, Yoze glanced at Lucien and Devi, who had seen everything and had their jaws on the floor from shock. He smiled and gave them a nod before running up the mountain to Gospel Peak. 

Even though he was rudely interrupted by the parasitic seeds, he still followed his plan to find the baby slug demons. Not only did they lose their parents, but as their only relative left in this world, he was responsible for taking care of them so they didn't cause chaos.

So he needed to raise them right by training them with his Bloody Beast Clone body cultivation method so that they would become as great as a man as he was.
