The Human Giant

Chapter 176 176: Beast Hunter Sect



After confirming the directions to the Beast Sect Yoze quickly made his way over and was able to see the large multi-story buildings integrated within a large forest. From the information provided to him and what he saw on maps, this forest was the Green Branch Forest.

It was known to hold more than 10 thousand different types of animals and the amount of flora was extremely diverse. Not only that it shared a small connection with the one Grave's region's Grand Lines, The Endless Forest.

The Endless Forest was widely considered to be the hardest Grandline to cross in the Grave Region and widely considered to be impossible. From the stories of countless merchants and martial artists disappearing forever once they step deep inside the forest seemingly never making it to the other side.

There were even hundreds of Martial Grandmasters who made it their goal to cross the Endless Forest only to disappear without a trace. Whereas even other regions never saw anyone cross the other side and anyone who had gone inside disappeared forever, never to be found again.

As the branch of the Endless Forest other than the wide variety of different types of plant life and animal life, it was widely considered to be much safer than its parent. As a place that thrived with animal life, the Beast Hunter Sect took up an incredibly small section of the Green Branch Forest yet their massive headquarters shows how integrated they were with the forest.

Their building was partially hidden from plain view by using the natural cover of the trees and even from a distance, Yoze could see numerous wild animals casually walking inside the buildings, sleeping on the roofs, using the bridges between the buildings to move around the forest itself. Treating the Beast Hunter Sect headquarters as part of the forest itself.

"What a beautiful place. If I didn't know it belonged to a martial art sect I would have believed that it was the hidden home of forest elves." Yoze said as he looked at the Beast Hunter Sect with admiration and felt that his decision to visit the Beast Sect was the right decision.

As Yoze got closer to the Beast Sect Headquarters he saw numerous martial artists walking around with the pet animals. What he found incredible was that some of these animals seemed to have inner vigor.

From a glance, he saw a second-rate martial artist whose arms seemed to be covered in black metal. Beside him was a giant white leopard who was close to 6 feet tall and 8 feet long that had its limbs covered in the same black metal. 

Showing that both the owner and his pets both trained in the same body cultivation and thereby extension also had the same inner vigor that seemed to have changed their limbs to have the properties of metal. If what he thought was correct Yoze didn't feel that the reputation of being a small sect suited the Beast Hunter Sect.

If he added their beast partners to their numbers of martial artists then the Beast Sect would easily be ranked as a middle-class martial art sect. Not only that their headquarters was much more defensible compared to the Martial Wheel Sect which should have made them a bigger threat to New Swamp Town than any other small martial art sect.

"How about I just investigate them and see if I can find out their secret to taming these beasts and all the information that they collected over the years? If I can't then I'll wreak havoc." 

After seeing how integrated the Beast Hunt Sect was with the forest, Yoze changed his approach to a more undercover method. He promised that other than destroying the Martial Wheel Sect he would just cause trouble with the other sects and he had no time limit to complete his promises.

So he had plenty of time to investigate the Beast Hunter Sect from the inside and then cause trouble or destroy the sect if he needed to. After making up his mind, Yoze deactivated his blood armor and walked the rest of the way to the Beast Hunter Sect.

Now that he was walking toward them, he was quickly discovered by the Beast Hunter Sect members who sent out a small squad to meet him. The small squad had three members of the Beast Hunter Sect along with their beast pets bringing their total number to six.

As the small squad got closer Yoze noticed that while these three Beast Hunter Sect Members seemed to be randomly chosen they were all quite strong and each of them was a first-rate martial artist. Their beast pets themselves also radiate an aura of first-rate martial artists. 

The one that caught Yoze's eye was the giant white polar bear that one of the members rode on. This polar bear was massive being around 9 feet tall even when standing on all four feet.

Not only that while it was still in the first-rate martial artist stage its aura was much stronger than that of its counterparts. Based on its aura alone it was even stronger than its master.

"Halt, you are approaching the Beast Hunter Sect headquarters. Identify yourself and your purpose." The young man with snow-white hair and crimson eyes shouted at Yoze from on top of the polar bear with a clear sign that he was its owner.

"My name is Geo and I'm interested in joining your sect," Yoze said casually.

"So you are interested in joining our sect, why didn't you say so? Can I ask you what realm you have reached?" Hearing Yoze wanted to join their sect made the young man with snow-white hair face relax as he changed his tone to be more friendly.

"I have recently reached the Blood Master realm, I hope that isn't a deal breaker to joining the sect." 

"Deal breaker? Of course not, come with me I am sure that we can accept someone with your status to join quite quickly."

"By the way, my name is Luvi. I am the grandson of the founder of Beast Hunter Sect so if you have any questions feel free to ask." The snow white-haired man said as he rode his polar bear back to the forest.

Yoze followed along and felt his luck was pretty good to be able to meet the grandson of the founder of the Beast Hunter Sect and felt he might be able to get an answer to how they were able to communicate with their beasts. Or at least find out if they have some book that has a list of animals with their traits, habits, and other core information that he could use to improve his Mindless Legs.

"Can I ask you how you can tame such powerful beasts as your polar bear? From the way I see it, I feel that this polar bear could kill most first-rate martial artists by itself, much less when you and it fight together." Yoze asked politely.

"Hahaha thank you for the compliment. I don't want to admit it but I didn't tame Pear by myself."

"She and I have been together since I was a kid and she was only a tiny bear cub. So we had a strong relationship before we started to train together in the Beast Human body cultivation method." Luvi chuckled to himself as he looked at the polar bear below him with warmth.

"But yes, we can tame the beasts first by gaining their trust and then using the Beast Human body cultivation to get an almost symbiotic relationship with each other."

"As a Blood Master, it will be quite easy for you to tame a powerful beast at the start. But I will warn you about the process of using the Beast Human body cultivation is extremely hard, time-consuming, and requires a lot of talent to even get a footing into the martial artist realm."

"Everyone in the sect right now has not only been able to tame a beast but also displayed enough talent, and dedication to be able to remain in the sect and progress in the martial art path," Luvi turned to Yoze to show the stern look in his eye as he continued.

"I hope that you don't think I am being harsh but we have strict rules here and if you break them or stop making progress on Beast Human martial art for a significant period of time you will be kicked out."

"Of course, we aren't monsters so you can still train in the Beast Human body cultivation method with your beast but it would be better for your future to stay in the sect." Luvi turned his head around after speaking, allowing silence to engulf the rest of their journey.

While they walked in silence, Yoze's mind raced as he felt that he had made the right decision to go undercover. Not only was he able to easily get the body cultivation method that the Beast Hunter Sect gave all their members but he should be able to look through their library to gather more information.
