The blood mist grew thick and expanded until it touched the forest plant life. What ensued next was the destruction of everything that came in contact with Yoze's blood.
With the slightest touch, the blood mist poked holes through the plant life causing it to be torn to shreds. With nothing capable of blocking its rapid expansion the blood mist transformed into a blood fog that covered the forest that covered the hill.
A thick scent of blood entered Yoze's nostrils, bringing him an excited feeling. A significant feeling of power covered his entire body making him want to fight someone.
With no one here to test his battle prowess, Yoze decided to stick to testing his new ability on the poor destroyed hill. Without bothering to grab a stick or a weapon, he lifted his arm in the same position as if he had an axe.
"Axe,"
With a single thought, Yoze's blood crawled up his arm and took up the shape of a large sharp battle axe that weighed over a ton. Lightly swinging his blood axe, Yoze utilized a small percentage of his power allowing the power of weight to rule.
"Axe Slash!"
"Boom!!!"
The mere force generated by his battle axe hitting the ground caused a mini earthquake to plague the hill as an enormous crack in the earth formed. The crack was so deep and massive that anyone who arrived back at this hill would assume that a truly massive earthquake had done devastating damage to the hill and the environment.
"Spear Stab!"
"Boom!!!"
Yoze wasn't satisfied with only unleashing a single attack to test his power. He quickly molded his battle axe into the form of a spear and stabbed the air.
A thunderous sonic boom came from the explosion that occurred when his spear pierced the air. Looking at the results of the air and blood fog being split apart all the way through with only destruction following it, made Yoze smile under his blood armor.
"Incredible, is this the power of becoming a Blood Master," Yoze said, feeling that all the difficulty he faced reaching this point was all worth it.
"If only I could become the equivalent of a Blood Master for spiritual energy then I'll predict I could kill demons that are hundreds of years old without much trouble." Yoze licked his teeth as his desire to solve his talent conflict reignited.
"The issue is that I'm not talented enough with manipulating spiritual energy so it takes a longer time than I hoped. But the harder it is the more benefits that come with it."
"Just imagining being able to survive lethal injuries like they're nothing sounds magical. I might even be able to create spiritual puppets."
As Yoze was thinking about all the magical techniques and abilities he had seen demons perform he suddenly remembered that both the Armored Elephant demon and the Swamp Leopard demon both had ways to add consciousness to their spiritual energy.
"Even though the Leopard demon lacks talent in spiritual energy manipulation it was able to have fantastic control of its spiritual energy once it was added to it. It is similar to a cheat code to increase your spiritual energy control."
As Yoze's mind wandered back to his experience with the Leopard demon he recalled how fiercely it tried to find his spiritual energy even to its detriment.
"What happened to my spiritual energy? If demons, humans, and other living creatures all have their spiritual energy, where is mine?"
Yoze recalled that even as far back as when he took the Serpent demon's body cultivation talent he seemed to have lost his human spiritual energy. It was as if it was replaced with the serpent demon's spiritual energy.
Initially, he didn't pay much mind since he always assumed that it either converted into new types of spiritual energy or was just hidden in his body. However, Yoze was certain that his spiritual energy shouldn't have been converted into the Serpent demon's spiritual energy or any of his demon's spiritual energies.
The reason why he was so confident was that he bore witness to what happened to his existing spiritual energies when he gained a new spiritual body cultivation talent. What happens is that his existing spiritual energies are split apart to create and feed the new spiritual energy.
With his thought process, he had a bold idea of why he couldn't find his original spiritual energy. He believed it all started when he copied the Serpent demon's spiritual body cultivation talent.
The moment he copied the Serpent demon's talent his original spiritual energy was dragged into his body and split apart into two parts. The first part was transformed into the Serpent demon's spiritual energy while the second part was still his original spiritual energy.
Right as the Serpent demon's spiritual energy was born it was fed by the Serpent demon's own life spiritual energy. Causing the two spiritual energies that were of similar size to no longer be proportional to each other.
Instead, it caused the Serpent demon's spiritual energy to dwarf his original spiritual energy in size and strength. That was why he couldn't see his original spiritual energy above his head when he checked.
As well as had a hard time sensing his original spiritual energy which had shrunk by at least half.
"Wait, does that mean as I got more spiritual energy talents it became harder and harder for me to sense my original spiritual energy?" Yoze's eyes widened as he felt enlightened.
If his thoughts were correct then his original spiritual energy was even weaker than he initially imagined. If all his spiritual energies had to contribute some of their spiritual energy to the newcomers then didn't that mean his original spiritual energy had been split at least four times?
His original spiritual energy had been split apart for the Serpent demon, Three-Headed Fox demon, Armored Elephant demon, and the Swamp Leopard demon.
"With how much my original spiritual energy contributed, how am I going to find it? It might have become just a single strand of spiritual energy by now."
