The thought of becoming a Blood Master made Yoze smile as he could sense that he should be able to reach the fifth level of Armored Swordsman within a few months and reach the peak of a sixth level in a year. As he collected more talents related to swords and weapons he expected that he should be able to cut that time down further.
Noticing that Jewel was still focused on her training and that there were a few more hours until nightfall Yoze put on his helmet and thought about what he should train next.
After thinking about it for a moment Yoze decided to train using one of the new body cultivation methods he had recently gotten from the city. He had thought about training one of his martial art techniques like one of his weapon techniques or one related to movements but decided against it.
Yoze held the belief that he would be able to make faster progress in training in body cultivation methods compared to martial art techniques ever since he experienced his rapid progress in Iron Skin. Especially when he accounted for the fact that his largest collection of talents was physical talents followed closely by his martial arts talents.
For most body cultivation methods, Yoze would have been able to make great progress even if he lacked a specific talent for it.
"I'll start with the Boneless Man body cultivation method. I have several talents that increase my talent related to flexibility so I should be able to improve quite fast." After making up his mind to train in a body cultivation method, he picked the Boneless Man body cultivation method.
After remembering the training method for the Boneless Man, Yoze decided to start right away, not even bothering to take off his armor. While wearing his full suit of armor, he tried his best to follow each Boneless stretch while wearing his bulky armor to the best of his ability.
[Boneless Man (Level 0: 40%)
At first, each one of the Boneless stretches made Yoze feel uncomfortable but after a few minutes, he was able to adapt and perform each one perfectly. Twenty minutes didn't even pass by before he noticed that he had reached 40 percent of the Boneless Man.
[Boneless Man (Level 1: 1%)
An hour passed by when Yoze suddenly heard cracks run through his body as his height grew by a few centimeters. He felt his movements become looser and felt like he was a caterpillar that had crawled out of his cocoon.
"At this rate, I'll reach the peak of Boneless Man by tomorrow morning." Clicking his tongue in satisfaction at his rate of improvement and soaking in the feeling for a few seconds Yoze returned his focus to training.
Two hours passed by in a blink of an eye when Yoze felt a shiver run down his spine. Snapping out of his focused state he watched as he grew a few more centimeters and he felt his muscles become looser.
Another three hours passed by and the sky had become pitch black while the full moon lit up the courtyard. In the midst of fully focusing on his training, Yoze didn't notice how strange it was that an armored giant was moving around as if it lacked anybody inside.
If there was anyone who accidentally stepped into his courtyard and watched this scene they would have thought that a ghost had possessed a suit of armor. Suddenly the ominous noise of bones popping in and out of joints rang from the suit of armor as it grew a few centimeters.
"Are you done for tonight?" Noticing that Yoze had stopped training, Jewel walked over to ask him if he was ready to leave.
"Yeah, I'm done and ready to go. Do you have a recommendation for a shop where I can get another suit of armor?" Yoze asked casually.
Having just reached the peak of level 3 of Boneless Man, Yoze lifted his hand and activated his Boneless Man inner vigor. The activated inner vigor seemed to act as a lubricant for muscles and bones allowing them to become so flexible that he could move as if his body lacked bones.
However, even though Yoze reached the peak of Boneless Man the boost in his battle prowess was only equivalent to becoming a second-rate martial artist. From what he read reaching the peak of the Boneless Man body cultivation method would only allow someone to become a second-rate martial artist.
Boneless Man wasn't a body cultivation that allowed one to reach the peak of a first-rate martial artist since it was created to be a supplemental body cultivation method. It was supposed to pair up well with other martial arts and body cultivation methods instead of being fantastic on its own.
Even though he didn't have a large increase in his strength or defensive prowess, the drastic increase in body movements and flexibility did wonders in improving all his martial art techniques. This was one of the reasons Yoze wanted to train in this body cultivation as soon as possible.
Yoze also sensed that his evasive ability has grown by a decent amount making it harder for anyone to land a single hit. As for Twin Fists, Yoze felt that he could start concentrating more force on other parts of his body such as his elbows and heels.
Currently, Yoze predicted that he was only able to match around 20 percent of the power that he could achieve using Twin Fists in his fingers. However, Yoze believed that once he was able to concentrate the full force of Twin Fists anywhere in his body he would have reached the peak.
"There aren't that many places that would have your size. I think it would be better to find a blacksmith to resize this armor instead of getting a new one." Remembering how long it took them to find Yoze's current suits of armor and not wanting to go through the hassle again, Jewel proposed another idea.
After witnessing Yoze grow more than 4 inches in a matter of a single day and how he casually had reshaped and expanded his armor Jewel felt that it would be better to take it to the blacksmith for it to get strengthened and resized. It would not only allow them to not face the hassle to find another suit of armor but it would allow Yoze to have a customized suit of armor.
" That sounds like a good idea, but it will take some time to get this armor expanded. So we should get another suit of armor in the meantime."
Yoze agreed with Jewel's proposal to get his suit of armor to get resized but didn't want to not have a set of armor while he was waiting for it to get resized.
"Okay, " Jewel nodded her head in agreement and thought about all of the shops that could potentially have suits of armor that suited Yoze's stature.
After a few seconds of thinking Jewel had eliminated almost all the shops near them and only could think of one shop that could have the armor he needed.
"You can hand over the suit of armor to a famous blacksmith known as Black Dragon. He is known for being a man with a ferocious temper and loves a challenge."
"He should have the skill and willingness to fix your armor but he's pretty pricey." Jewel glanced at Yoze to check if he was alright with her suggestion, after seeing that he was interested she continued.
"Black Dragon also works for the Underground Forgery and they are one of the few shops that should have armor that fits you. But your size is already reaching its max so if you grow any bigger there might not be any armor that can fit you."
"That's fine, I'll have you lead the way tomorrow. " Yoze understood where Jewel was coming from and knew that he would continue to grow in the future.
However, he didn't care that it was going to be a nuisance to find anything his size because this was the main reason he chose Big Golem to be his first body cultivation method. Yoze wanted to be big and strong so that he could bulldoze and crush anything that was in his path.
