The Human Giant

Chapter 245 245: Why Should I Work With You?





With her face in total disbelief, the humanoid rabbit turned its head around in curiosity to see that Yamgo was in shock over its half-eaten crystal. After turning its head around, the humanoid rabbit saw that inside Yamgo's hands was another crystal that she had stored in her bag.

"Can you understand what I'm saying?" Yamgo said slowly, hoping that her plan would work.

The humanoid rabbit remained silent as it looked at the crystal inside Yamgo's hands, and a blue flash of like gleamed inside its eyes. Seeing that the humanoid rabbit didn't outright attack her, Yamgo felt that the chances of her plan working increased.

"As you already know, inside my hand is a crystal. It is extremely valuable for people like me as it is the key to us reaching the status of being immortal."

"From the fact that I can see that you are not a demon and are, of course, not a monster, I believe that you are already familiar with the importance of these crystals." Yamgo paused for a second for the humanoid rabbit to soak in what she was saying before she continued.

"As an intelligent species with crystal nerves like yourself, I know that you have some way to absorb crystal to improve yourselves. But from what I see right now, you don't have a method that can turn you into an immortal."

"A being that can and will never die and will remain part of this world long after this planet has been destroyed. A being that can control the weather, the life, and death of countless creatures, and even destroy the limits of the body." Yamgo paused again as she noticed that the humanoid rabbit's eyes slowly moved away from the crystal in her hands and looked at her with curiosity.

"I know that you can already tell what I'm going to say next. That is, I want us to break down the barrier that has blocked the relationship between humans and intelligent creatures such as yourself."

"I want to keep my life intact and learn from you how to make my body as powerful as yours and evolve closer to the perfect being. While I will help teach you the human ways of becoming immortal and help you get enough crystals to sustain your journey to the top." Yamgo said with vigor in her voice and a look in her eyes that showed she was truly sincere in her offer.

Unlike her, other plans were to escape or somehow trick this humanoid rabbit into letting her go. Yamgo preferred this plan, where she wanted to enter a partnership with this monster and get its help in not only passing this trial but also guaranteeing success in entering the top 10.

If everything went according to her plan, she could get crucial help from a monster to quickly rise through the ranks of immortal cultivators in the Immortal Palace sect and become immortal soon. After becoming immortal, her life would no longer be dependent on the mood of this powerful humanoid rabbit.

Instead, their one-sided relationship will evolve into a more balanced one, or she will become the dominant party and extract as much value from this humanoid rabbit before tossing it aside. While she might have felt that this was an insane plan that had no hope of success in the past.

That was mainly because she had no idea the difference between the monsters in the Endless Forest and regular demons. However, the longer they stayed inside the Endless Forest and fought plants that were gaining their sentience for their cores, the more she realized what those plant cores were.

From what she had gathered, the plant cores weren't actual special cores that only the plants in the Endless Forest were developing. Instead, it was what made herself and countless other humans special and have hope of fighting against demons, Crystal Nerves.

The special nerves that only a small percentage of the human race had allowed them to develop a path to becoming immortals that were impossible to truly kill. The nerves that she and everyone else was foolish enough to assume only belonged to the human race and no other race.

The nerves that made them as special as demons, who seemed to be the natural destroyers of this world. The race seems to have been given unlimited power since birth and continued to be blessed by heaven and hell.

Suddenly finding out that not only were Crystal Nerves not unique to humans but that other creatures that they simply had looked down upon and considered to be either food or a pet was a shock. It was a total shock not only for her but for all the other rogue immortal cultivators that had come to the same conclusion.

Suddenly they found out that not only were they not special and the only people that could rival demons, but even a plant could find a path to become so powerful and intelligent that it could easily kill rogue immortal cultivators that had spent their entire lives reaching the Crystal Skull Realm. When Yamgo remembered how she almost died because of a single blade of grass, her face turned grim as she had to face the fact that she was weak.

So weak that to immortals, demons, and monsters all over the world that she was no different from the martial artists that she had disdained. She was simply a mortal that had become slightly stronger than the rest by using spells.

Not more and not less.

The only way for her to gain any sort of relevance in this world and show that she wasn't simply a bug that could be squished at any time was to become immortal.

Not only did she need to become immortal, but she still needed to figure out how she was supposed to climb the ranks of the immortals. And how she was supposed to fight against the immortals that had lived for tens of thousands of years, the demons that were almost gods, and the monsters that seemed to be biological perfection.

These were all tasks that seemed insurmountable for her, who had the worst talent that was barely acceptable enough to join an immortal sect but complete trash compared to the true geniuses and the sons and daughters who were blessed with otherworldly talent.

However, to accomplish her dream, she was willing to do everything and anything, even if that was betraying humanity to keep her life. Even if she needed to hand over all the secrets that humanity had developed over the years to a demon or a monster to get assistance to reach the top, she was willing to do it.

"What do you think? I'll teach you how to consume crystals the human way and even teach you my immortal cultivation method."

"Right now, I am part of a test to join an immortal sect and gain the last few parts of my immortal cultivation method to get the complete version and gain immortality. That way, I can give you the complete version and even give you a higher possibility of becoming an immortal yourself."

"What do you think? Do we have a deal?" Yamgo puffed out her chest as she held the crystal in her hands out to allow the humanoid rabbit to get a better look.

After seeing that she had regained the focus of the humanoid rabbit on the crystal in her hands, she began to absorb the crystal. Slowly but visibly, the humanoid rabbit watched the crystal in Yamgo's hands shrink magically.

Noticing that the humanoid rabbit's interest had peaked, Yamgo wanted to continue her sales pitch, but before she continued to speak, she noticed that the humanoid rabbit had opened its mouth for the first time.

"Interesting proposal. What is stopping me from just killing you and finding another one of you humans to learn this method?"

The smooth feminine voice that came out of the humanoid rabbit's mouth slightly shocked Yamgo as she didn't expect the monster in front of her to know how to speak the human language. For it to be able to clearly speak in the human tongue meant that not only had it developed its mouth to make human sounds, but it also took the time to learn the manner of human speech.

This revelation sent a chill down her spine as she realized that taking advantage of this humanoid rabbit was going to be incredibly difficult. If she wasn't careful, she would lose her life without gaining a single benefit. After taking a split second to calm herself down and think of the proper response, Yamgo spoke to the humanoid rabbit with a confident smile.

"It is simply because no one stronger than me isn't immortal already. I don't want to ruin your impression of me, but I don't think you dare meet any of the immortals, as you know that your physical prowess will be nothing to them."
