The Human Giant

117 Chapter 117: Defeating Silver Thunder



Martial Silver Thunder frowned as he felt his intuition telling him to run. That there was something wrong here, especially since Yoze was confidently speaking gibberish-like about spiritual energy.

Being a Martial Grandmaster, Martial Silver Thunder always trusted his intuition and immediately turned around to escape. Noticing that Martial Silver Thunder wanted to escape, Yoze clicked his tongue and sent his spiritual energy out to suppress Martial Silver Thunder.

Being so close in distance meant that Martial Silver Thunder nearly instantly felt as if his mind was stuck in a thick swamp and he had a mountain pressing down on him. The pressure coming down on him was so high that his knees buckled causing him to roll to the ground.

"You-you are the anomaly! Please spare my life!" 

Martial Silver Thunder felt death grip his heart the moment Yoze's spiritual energy pressed against his own and a terrifying revelation crossed his mind. He never would have thought that the person he had been fighting with was an anomaly, an unnatural creature.

"I'll do anything to live, I'll do anything. Do you want money, martial art books, knowledge, treasures, or anything you can think of, I'll get it for you." Martial Silver Thunder knew that he had run out of luck and could only hope that he could tempt Yoze into letting him live a bit longer.

Yoze however didn't bother to respond as he had placed his entire focus on trying to manipulate his spiritual energy to enter Martial Silver Thunder's body. However, the results were not very encouraging as he was having trouble with cutting off a small piece of his spiritual energy away from the large clump that was pressing Martial Silver Thunder.

Whenever he tried to split his spiritual energy either three outcomes would come about, the first was that he simply would fail to split apart his spiritual energy. This was the most common outcome where 18 out of 20 attempts ended up with him not being able to extract his spiritual energy.

In the two attempts he succeeded in splitting his spiritual energy before he could even celebrate they would fail for various reasons. During one of the moments he successfully split a small piece of his spiritual energy away from the main body, it was immediately destroyed from exposure to the outside.

The third outcome came right after his first success when he tried to solve the issue of his spiritual energy being destroyed by the environment from being too small. Instead, he tried to split apart a larger clump of his spiritual energy but it was even more discouraging.

Not only was it harder to control that larger chunk of spiritual energy but it was a bone-piercing pain that came from deep within Yoze's mind and forced him to stop halfway. Yoze's body was covered in sweat as trying to split his spiritual energy was both mentally and physically draining.

"Maybe I should try to copy what the Leopard demon and Elephant demon did and use a majority of my spiritual energy on his body." Yoze thought to himself before shaking his head.

"I am not going to risk my life and send a majority of my spiritual energy into Martial Silver Thunder's body. That was exactly how those two ended up dying in my hands.

"Their demon bodies were much stronger than mine and they could have easily escaped if they had tried but they instead chose to risk it all. In the end, they ended up dying and survived so I can't make the same mistakes."

"If I do try to do it then my target must be completely at my mercy and completely unconscious for me to attempt that much risk." Yoze looked at Martial Silver Thunder and noticed that he still was gripping his spear and decided not to take the risk.

"Next time I meet a demon and they have the talent of Spiritual Manipulation I am going to copy it first." After realizing how incredible having some talent in the art of manipulating his spiritual energy could be, Yoze decided to grab one for his own.

He had the chance to copy the Elephant demon's Spiritual Manipulation talent but in the end, he decided not to take it. Yoze didn't regret his choice as the Elephant demon's Armored Elephant Spiritual body Cultivation talent had been incredibly invaluable up to this point and even further into the future.

After doing a few dozen more attempts to split apart his spiritual energy Yoze decided to stop for now. He would try again at a later date when his target wasn't someone that could kill him in a split second if he had the opportunity to.

Instead, Yoze wanted to confirm that he could devour other creatures' spiritual energy even though it wasn't inside his body and they were still alive. With that thought, Yoze created a spiritual claw with the remaining spiritual energy circulating in his body and slashed at the green cloud while avoiding his spiritual energy.

"Ahhh!" Martial Silver Thunder screamed from the sudden sharp pain that tore apart his mind.

The pain was unlike anything that he had experienced and made him drop his spear. The sensation felt like his soul was being ripped apart by thousands of tiny ants and he could feel every single bite and piece of flesh being torn from his body.

In his entire 105 years of living in this world, he had never experienced such horrifying pain and almost wanted to die but noticing that Yoze had a happy look on his face made his pain even more unbearable.

Luckily, for Martial Silver Thunder Yoze wasn't going to let him suffer for too long. As once he confirmed that his spiritual claws could cut apart and even devour spiritual energy directly he immediately allowed his spiritual energies to run wild and devour all of Martial Silver Thunder's spiritual energy.

Once the last lick of Martial Silver Thunder's spiritual energy was devoured and assimilated, Yoze watched as Martial Silver Thunder's body dropped to the ground with no movement.
