The Human Giant



The young man's eyes had a blank stare as if he was always in a daydream. Surrounding the young man's eyes were red immortal tattoos that pulsed at a regular pace like blood vessels.

Each immortal tattoo swam around his face and occasionally took on the shape of several pairs of eyes. Even without the young man's eyes turning toward him, Yoze could feel a sharp gaze on his neck. 

Understanding that he was getting a warning, Yoze turned and observed the other two immortals who didn't show any signs that they had practiced the immortal tattoo cultivation manual. Instead, the two remaining people took on a similar appearance and appeared to be twins.

They both had short messy blonde hair and crystal blue eyes that made anyone feel as if they were piercing through their souls. Their skin was pale white and seemed to be made of porcelain. 

If it weren't for the fact that Yoze could see that each of the twin brothers had their spiritual energy, he would have suspected that they were dolls that were being controlled. 

"I wonder if those two are also immortal and what kind of immortal cultivation manual they are practicing." Yoze thought to himself as he joined the crowd of rogue immortal cultivators.

As Yoze joined the crowd, he began to attract the gazes of everyone around simply due to his unique appearance. Not only did he dwarf everyone in height, making them look like children compared to him, but he was also covered head to toe in bloody bandages that reeked of blood and medicine. 

However, other than attracting a few people's curiosity, most rogue immortal cultivators turn their attention back to the immortals. For them, this was a matter of life and death, and they couldn't afford to mess up this chance, so Yoze only took up a tiny bit of their attention. 

The same went for the immortals themselves, who were not interested in getting to know a mortal who would be turned into dust due to time while they continued to live forever. 

"Patty, I believe that we waited enough time for the rogue immortals to gather. Let's give these people the opportunity that they desire." The immortal with the blank stare turned towards the young man covered in black immemorial tattoos.

The immortal named Patty nodded as he stepped forward to address the crowd. Before he opened his mouth, the black tattoos flew out of his body and transformed into legendary weapons. 

"There are three separate tests, and passing either one of them will grant you automatic student rank of the Immortal Palace Sect. Pass two of them, and you will be entitled to a reward that will significantly benefit your immortal cultivation. "

"For those who have reached the peak of the crystal skull realm, this prize will almost guarantee you become immortal. For those who haven't reached that realm, the prize will elevate you by one realm." Patty unhurriedly said as he watched twinkles of desire appear in the eyes of many of the rogue immortal cultivators.

Especially the rogue immortal cultivators who have long reached the pinnacle of the Crystal Skull realm and were on the verge of dying due to old age; their desire to live was much stronger than the young immortal cultivators who didn't feel the threat of death every day.

Even Yoze felt his heart itch for the secret prize for passing both trails. Being able to skip an entire realm from a single prize was something Yoze didn't expect but significantly desired. 

If he could use the prize to skip the entirety of the Nerve Accumulation realm, he would save himself years and immediately be able to move on to the Nerve Crystallization realm. He could then begin to truly incorporate the spells and special abilities that the Fire Immortal and Immortal Tattoo cultivation manuals into his fighting abilities.

Patty's face remained calm and emotionless even though he knew that he had grabbed the full participation of many of the rogue immortals regardless of the contents of the two trials. After waiting a few seconds to build suspense, Patty continued to describe the three tests.

"The first test is a trial of immortal cultivation talent. Each of you will select one of the weapons I have created. Once you grab the weapon, it will release a bright golden glow that will measure the quality of your crystal nerves."

"The higher the number displayed on the weapon, the better your talent. To pass this trial, you must have an immortal cultivation talent of 5 or greater to be qualified to join our immortal sect without any additional testing."

As Patty finished describing the first test, the atmosphere of the crowd of rogue immortal cultivators dropped as many of the rogue immortal cultivators let out heavy sighs. They already had guessed that such an incredible prize that could raise them by a whole realm couldn't be given without being incredibly talented or paying a heavy prize.

However, they were hopeful that the immortals would allow them to choose which of the three tests to try their hand to claim the prize, but they could only accept that they had no choice. From the beginning, the decision to accept rogue immortal cultivators into their immortal sect was just a front for the immortal sect to use them for something.

And now that the first test was about the appraisal of immortal cultivation talent, they knew that the other two tests were the actual tests they needed to pass to claim the prize. The reason for their prediction was that they all knew they would be able to reach the required talent.

If they could pass that test, they would have already been taken to an immortal cultivation sect to go on their journey to become immortals. So why would they have to rely on these tests to enter an immortal sect?

All rogue immortal cultivators knew in their hearts that they were rogue immortal cultivators because they didn't have enough immortal cultivation talent. Furthermore, their Crystal Nerves talents were all limited to the impure rank, so how would they be able to pass this talent test?
