As the blood mist spread throughout the house Yoze thought about activating his own blood armor to shield the blood mist's pressure from his father. However, just as he was about to activate his blood armor to drive away the blood mist's pressure he thought about using this cover as an opportunity to just kill Regi.
If Regi was dead this entire plot would come crumbling down without him having to do anything else at all. Making up his mind, Yoze quickly sent out his spiritual energies to devour Regi's spiritual flower whole and not leave a single petal behind.
It didn't take long for the hungry spiritual energies in his body to rush out of his body and surround Regi's spiritual energy like a pack of hungry demons. Even though his spiritual energy was in mortal danger Regi had no idea and tried to continue to further his plot to take over Yoze's body.
"Officer, this is the house where-" Just as Regi began to speak he felt a heavy crush on his mind followed by unbelievable pain.
The pain that he felt was something he never had experienced before in his long life as an immortal cultivator. Even the pain of being stabbed a hundred times seemed to pale in comparison to the pain he was feeling.
Yet even though the pain was immense and he wanted to scream for help from his allies, he couldn't control his body at all and could only experience endless pain until his spiritual energy was completely devoured.
Just as Yoze, Tiki, Dreyer, and Jewel heard the voice of one of the invaders saying something, they suddenly stopped talking midway through their sentence. After which they heard a solid deep thud slam into the floor which surprised not only Tiki, Dreyer, and Jewel but also the invaders as they stopped coming inside the house.
It wasn't too long after the first thing that another three solid thuds slammed into the ground which sent everyone on high alert. Jewel, Tiki, and Dreyer immediately tried to find Yoze to get protection from whoever was causing those thuds while the invaders completely stopped in their tracks as a tense balance was formed.
As the only one who knew what was going on, Yoze felt those thuds were magical as he had wanted to hear those for a long time. Seeing that everything was in a tense balance between them and the invaders Yoze decided that it was now time for him to bring out his Blood Armor and get rid of this blood mist.
"Finally," Breathing out a quiet sigh of relief Yoze allowed his body to relax as he urged his Weapon Handler Inner Vigor to control his blood to leave his body.
As soon as his Weapon Handler Inner Vigor received his urging it controlled his blood to move his blood outside his veins and pour out of his pores. The blood that gushed out of his pores took on a slightly darker red as a heavy pressure seemed to radiate from his blood.
The slightly dark red blood quickly formed into a full suit of blood armor that had a clear metallic shine on its surface. As soon as the blood armor surrounded Yoze's body the clear sound of bones cracking rang out of his body as he grew larger and taller.
By the time he stopped growing, he had grown to a height of around 9 feet forcing Yoze to bend his body slightly so his head didn't break through the ceiling. The soft sound of Yoze's beating blood heart echoes through the house creating a strange atmosphere similar to a horror movie.
After several weeks of practice of repeatedly activating his blood armor, controlling his blood mist, and making further progress in his Blood Weapon Handler body cultivation Yoze gained the ability to bring out his blood armor without immediately killing everything around him. Not only that he had begun to train in the Blood Breaker Martial art set and had broken through to the third level.
Now with his further control, Yoze released his dark red blood mist to counteract the invading blood mist. As soon as his dark red blood mist came in contact with the blood mist it immediately pushed it back. As his dark red blood mist pushed back the foreign blood mist back to its owners Tiki, Jewel, and Dreyer were able to see what had caused the thuds that they heard earlier.
Lying on the floor were Winter's, Summer's, and Spring's bodies who seemed to have tried to get closer to Yoze before they fell. When Tiki and Dreyer saw the three bodies on the ground they immediately tried to find their father and only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw he was in Yoze's arms.
Meanwhile, when the blood mist reached the invaders it began to clear up allowing them to see and reveal their enemies. Located by the door were ten soldiers who each wore the symbols of New Swamp Town imprinted on their metal armor.
Each of the soldiers had a look on their faces as if they were facing the strongest enemy in their lives and were prepared to die with incomplete bodies. And once they had gotten a good look at the 9-foot giant covered head to toe in dark red blood staring at them their faces paled but they stood their ground with determination.
The only exception was an older soldier whose hair had turned gray and the wrinkles on his face were starting to deepen showing his age. Even though the soldier was growing in age the power coming from his body didn't show any signs of diminishing.
From the long sharp claws coming out from between his knuckles this old soldier was a strong Blood Master who had taken more lives than most martial artists. That old soldier looked at Yoze with the same serious look of determination as the other soldiers before he seemed to recall something.
"Yoze?"
