The Human Giant



Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator felt his mind become clearer as he suddenly stopped running. After he stopped running, the middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator looked at Leo's eyes with stillness as if he had already accepted his fate.

Even though Leo and the young woman with black and white knew that something was off with the middle-aged rogue immortal cultivators, they didn't stop their chase. Instead, the moment the middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator stopped, the demon duo increased their speed.

This was especially the case with Leo as he had complete confidence in his armor as its defensive capabilities were so high that it had allowed him to survive fatal attacks. In his entire lifetime, the number of times he had been injured in a fight while wearing his Doom Rhino Armor was zero.

Even the full-powered attacks from Martial Grandmasters couldn't lay a scratch on his armor which gave Leo the confidence he needed to charge at his enemies without care. Other than splitting half of his attention to maintaining his armor and locking down his enemies, he focused on watching the careful movements of his enemies and the surrounding environment to ensure nothing caught him by surprise.

"No crystal energy fluctuations? And he hasn't cast a spell. Is he planning on relying on something he had cast previously?" Leo's mind races as he tries to remember everything that he can remember about this middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator. 

As someone previously on their team before being robbed, Leo had a wealth of information on the type and number of spells that each person had displayed for most of the trial. If he remembered correctly, the middle-aged man in front of him was named Jackie Fruit and was a rogue immortal cultivator from a faraway town.

Only arriving at New Swampscott City due to the rumors of a special treasure being born near the City. Unfortunately, this was a common trend as hundreds of rogue immortal cultivators had journeyed to collect that treasure.

With such a fiercely contested treasure, it was impossible for someone who had only created half of his Crystal Spine to compete in the competition. Now that he had joined the third trial, the weakness of his low realm played a role in his trouble to survive.

However, his survival till now showed that he had plenty of tricks in his sleeves that could help him out of any sticky situation. Leo could remember when Jackie pulled out a spell that could turn himself into a ten feet tall giant that had super strength to match when they were restraining another rogue immortal cultivator.

Though that Giantification spell was difficult for someone of his caliber to be able to cast, his success, paired with his ten water-related spells, meant that he was a talented spell caster. So even though Leo knew that Jackie was low on crystal energy, he still decided to be cautious and activate another of his favorite spells.

"Buffed Rhino Armor!"

Once again, screaming out the end of his spell, Leo's original gray armor that took on the shape of a rhino costume became larger, and even a new layer was created to increase his defense. As Jackie watched Leo nearly get within punching distance, his heart slowed as he bent his knees.

"Please spare my life! I'll help you catch that rat and kill anyone you want me to kill!" The moment Jackie's knees touched the ground, he shouted to the sky with confidence as he screamed for his life to be spared.

Surprised by this scene, Leo and the young woman with black and white hair felt their pupils contract from shock. Not expecting that at this moment Jackie would place his life in the hands of others, Leo's slightly slowed down to prepare for some surprise attack.

Taking advantage of this extra time, a green flash appeared in Jackie's eyes, and he quickly used the rest of his crystal energy to activate one more spell. In a split instant after casting his spell, Jackie's knees sank through the ground as he quickly turned intangible.

By the time Leo reached him, Jackie had allowed his entire body to enter the ground quickly, making his escape. He didn't even think about how he had abandoned his teammates as he knew that if he had thought about loyalty for even a split second longer, he would have been dead.

Not only that, as the weakest member in this entire trial, there was only one outcome if he was that foolish, death. If he wanted to survive, he needed to get rid of having a target on his back by clearing the path for the demon duos' real target.

As Jackie had expected, he couldn't sense anyone following him as Leo immediately switched his target for another middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator on the run. As the second slowest in the group and having not gained a significant distance ahead of Jackie, Leo quickly caught up to the rogue immortal cultivator.

"You gotta be kidding me!" The middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator cursed under his breath. Before muttering a chant under his breath, the middle-aged man turned his head around and spat out thick blue flames that reached thousands of degrees.

The man that had turned himself into a flamethrower easily covered Leo's short body in his blue flames. The enormous heat from the fire turned the surrounding plants into ash while the ground was charred black.

Unfortunately, the middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator knew it wasn't enough to take down monsters like Leo, so he tried to activate another of his spells. Before he could, a large gray hand stretched out of the blue flames and grabbed the back of his head.

"Ahhh!" 

The middle-aged rogue immortal cultivator instantly screamed as his blue flames engulfed his head, quickly melting his skin and bones. Before he died from having his head turned into ash, Leo's second hand curled up into a fist covered in blue flames that punched right through the man's chest.

After punching a hole through the middle-aged immortal cultivator's chest, Leo threw his body away like a garbage bag to continue to chase after the two remaining rogue immortal cultivators. 

"Brother, I hope you have a plan on how to deal with this." 

"Of course I do," 

After the death and escape of their two teammates, the two remaining members looked at each other with calm expressions on their faces as if they weren't worried about being killed. This was even the case for the elderly old man who had hysterically screamed, as he no longer had the same panic-stricken look on his face.

"I have completed absorbing the cores of our two teamsters, bringing us each to 15 cores. This should be enough to allow us to pass this test, so we don't need these two demon's cores any longer." The old man known as the Wiseman of the South smiled as he clapped his hand to summon two weapons out of thin air.

These two weapons were Leo's greatsword and the Vengeful Ghost's Bow and Arrow. Each of these legendary weapons had been created by Immortal Patty each had a glowing ten imprinted on their surfaces.

"Here is a gift from the two Wiseman of the South for taking care of our incompetent teammates for us. As for your revenge, you can have these bodies as well." 

After summoning the two weapons, the Wiseman of the South threw them to their owners, forcing Leo and the Vengeful Ghost to abandon chasing after the Two Wiseman of the South. With the additional time, the two old men slapped their foreheads, causing their skin to turn bright red.

As soon as their bodies had turned as red as a lobster, the sound of ripping skin and muscles came from their bodies. Without much resistance, a skull and spine made of crystals shimmered in the sun, causing beautiful rainbows to surround their bloody and torn-apart flesh.

After escaping their struggling old bodies, the two pairs of crystal skulls, crystal spines, and brains quickly flew hundreds of feet into the air and disappeared.

Once Leo and the Vengeful Ghost grabbed their weapons, they looked at two bodies of elderly men that had been abandoned and turned into nothing more than sacks of flesh and stopped their pursuit.

"I'll remember this,"

Even though the young woman dressed in a black and white robe still desired to get revenge on the two old men, she knew clearly that it was no longer suitable for her to chase after them. Instead, she needed to escape as soon as possible before the Three-Eyed Tiger recovered from her Thunderclap spell and swallowed her whole.

"Leo, I'll meet you at the Immortal sect headquarters." She said quickly.

"Same to you, Yamgo." Leo gave her a slight nod before running away as fast as possible.

After saying their goodbyes, Tamgo threw a glance at the Three-Eyed Tiger and felt a cold chill crawl down her spine as she realized that it had already recovered from its dazed state.
