The Human Giant

The temptation of the unique talent-related body cultivation was too much for Yoze to handle so he locked onto the talent and copied it and got the second-best thing.

[Grade 10 talent Serpent Spiritual Body Cultivation Talent has been locked on. Grade 9 Serpent Spiritual Body Cultivation Talent has been added.]

Yoze was surprised to see that his cheat had once again updated itself to now pull up a blue message in front of him. However, he didn't pay much attention to it as he found himself in a black space with a truly giant Serpent Demon.

The Demon stood more than 20 feet tall and was covered in dark black scales; its length alone would have doubled its height at least. The Serpent Demon's sharp claws shimmered with a green glow and its blood-red snake eyes chilled Yoze's blood.

Yoze gulped his saliva as he watched the giant serpent demon sliver on the ground before its skin cleared up and showed a green mist flowing into the demon's muscles in a particular order and quickly absorbed into its flesh before more green mist took its place. This process continued until Yoze realized that the demon had grown larger and its presence solidified.

"Yoze,"

Snapping out of his daze Yoze turned toward Jewel who was much farther back than he remembered.

"Why are you getting closer to that demonic egg?" Jewel asked, trembling from the aura that was leaking out from the hatching egg.

Jewel could sense that the egg's aura gave her the same amount of pressure that Yoze had given her when he became a first-rate martial artist. And the egg's aura was growing stronger by the minute and seeing Yoze casually walking right to this dangerous egg freaked her out.

"Uh, I'm just checking it out. I'll be back in a bit."

Staring at the egg that contained the serpent demon he saw, Yoze paid even more attention to it as he saw that some of the white mist surrounding the demon egg was making its way toward him.

Instinctively, he knew that the white mist was good for him so he extended his hand to touch it. As Yoze did so he felt his body shiver as he subconsciously thought of the pathways that the Serpent Demon in his head had.

The white mist entered Yoze's hand as he felt a refreshing and relaxing energy massaging his muscles making them rapidly develop strangely. Yoze felt that he was getting stronger, faster, and more flexible at an incredible speed.

At the same time, his Inner Vigor became active as it flowed through his body as more and more Inner Vigor was produced by the white mist entering his muscles the same way it did with the Serpent Demon.

From a small trickle, the refreshing white mist redirected itself more and more toward Yoze until a majority of the white mist began entering Yoze's body. The Demon Egg had no idea why it sensed that it was intaking less of its own life's spiritual energy but it could do nothing about it until it hatched. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵

Meanwhile, Yoze was absorbing 99 percent of the white mist, delighted to find that his Big Golem Cultivation method was rapidly increasing. From just reaching level 4 he had blasted through to more than 90 percent and there was still plenty of white mist surrounding the demon egg.

"Can I reach the peak of level 5 just by absorbing this white mist and following the Serpent Demon's strange art? No wonder it was said that demons are much stronger than mortals. If I hadn't interrupted the demon-hatching process it might have even become stronger than most Blood Masters or maybe even a Martial Grandmaster at birth."

The thought of meeting a Martial Grandmaster-level demon made Yoze's heart turn cold. But he got rid of that thought and focused on taking as much from this demon before it hatched. It was the best thing he could do to protect his group so he couldn't be selfish and started training his Big Golem cultivation method to accelerate the production rate of his Inner Vigor.

A few minutes later, Yoze felt his Inner Vigor running wild as it colluded against his flesh, muscles, skin, nails, and hair. Every time a bit of his Inner Vigor clashed with a part of his body a small bit was lost and absorbed into his body.

However, as soon as he lost a bit of Inner Vigor Yoze's body would produce 3 times more. Yoze could tell that the disturbance caused by the white mist was making his breakthrough into level 5 of the Big Golem art longer as more and more of his Inner Vigor was absorbed into his own body.

Even without Yoze gaining any more muscle his weight was rapidly increasing from 300 to 325 to 350 to 400 to 700 to 900 to 1000 pounds. After reaching 1000 pounds Yoze's body seemed to have reached its max saturation levels as no matter how much his inner vigor clashed inside his body no more inner vigor was absorbed.

The sudden gain in weight would have caused Yoze's bones to be crushed but at the same time, he was getting stronger, faster, and more flexible from the Serpent Demon's art. By this point more than half of the white mist surrounds the egg.

However, Yoze wasn't satisfied yet as he could sense the aura of the demon was getting closer to the peak of a first-rate martial artist. He needed to continue absorbing the white mist so that when the demon hatched it wouldn't be much of a threat that way he could obtain its other talents.

So Yoze pushed to try and reach the peak of level 5!

[Big Golem Cultivation (Level 5: 5%)]

[Big Golem Cultivation (Level 5: 10%)]

[Big Golem Cultivation (Level 5: 15%)]

[Big Golem Cultivation (Level 5: 20 %)]

...

Yoze ignored the signs that his cheat had once again updated to now include live progress. He was instead inspired by the fact that he was getting closer and closer to reaching the peak of level 5.
