After getting rid of the Martial Wheel Sect's top echelons Yoze looked at the remaining people and said to them.

"You can spread the word that the Martial Wheel Sect has been destroyed. You guys can go unless you want to try fighting me." 

The moment Yoze mentioned that they could leave the people scattered like flies as they tried their best to avoid being anywhere near the blood giant that had just wiped out their strongest leaders in one fell swoop. Most of them even gave up and didn't bother to take any of their belongings to prevent them from being mistaken as trying to steal from the dead sect.

After watching the rest of the former members of the Martial Wheel Sect leave, Yoze deactivated his blood armor and found the entrance where they came from, and went inside. Luckily the inside of the cave system was well-lit and even had signs that pointed to where everything was.

Which included the library and its storage rooms which were his targets. The only thing that he wasn't pleased with was the fact that they made their ceiling too low.

They had only made them 7 feet and 5 inches tall which might have been enough for most people but Yoze's current height simply wasn't enough. This left him with two options: the first was to deal with it and bend over as he navigated through the winding tunnels.

The second option which was his favorite was to expand the tunnels he was moving through so he didn't have to crouch the entire way. Even though it required more effort on his part Yoze didn't mind since he had just destroyed a sect so he had hours to spare.

It wasn't like someone was going to try to explode the entire cave system with him inside it to avenge the Martial Wheel Sect. And even if there was someone crazy enough the only thing that it would do was inconvenience him since it was difficult for him to be buried alive.

As for the person who exploded the tunnels, they would die before they even had the chance to celebrate their accomplishment. So Yoze didn't have many worries about spending an extra hour just underground, instead, he found it strangely comfortable like being in a second home.

"So this is their library, at least they were kind enough to make the cells at least 10 feet tall for the library." 

The moment Yoze reached the library he was met with a wide open dome room that had tall shelves full of various kinds of books ranging from basic s to martial arts and even medical books. The books were even categorized which made it easier for Yoze to find what he needed.

"Iron Bones body cultivation method and even Iron Organs body cultivation method are here. With these two I can make a full iron body and make my physical defense even stronger than demons." 

Immediately after he started his search for books Yoze's eyes found two body cultivation manuals that caught his eye. The first manual had the cover of a gray skeleton and the second manual's cover displayed the various large organs of the body covered in a gray metallic coloring.

These two books were Iron Bones and Iron Organ respectively and each took on different interpretations to solve the Iron Skin body cultivation manuals problems.

As two of the many different interpretations of the Iron Skin family line these two methods were less popular compared to Iron Muscles. Due to their ignoring the fact that it didn't matter if your bones or organs were strong and durable if your muscles and flesh were torn to shreds. Though these two methods were less popular that didn't mean they were any less useful.

The moment Yoze saw them his mind wandered to creating an iron body by combining all four body cultivation methods. This wasn't the first time a martial artist had this idea to create an indestructible body cultivation method by combining the various Iron body cultivation methods.

But the majority of martial artists would stop that idea in its tracks due to one simple reason, they would die long before they would succeed. Most people simply didn't have enough talent and resources to be able to fulfill this theory.

People that gave it a try anyway soon found out that by the time they had reached the peak of three body cultivation methods they had spent decades of their life trying and still had many more Iron body methods to go.

There were so many interpretations of Iron Skin that one could turn any part of their body as hard as iron. For example, if a martial artist had a finger technique that required their nails they might prefer to train in the Iron Nails body cultivation method since it suited their needs.

The task of just collecting all the various variations of Iron Skin was nearly impossible, much less attempting to train in all of them before they reached the end of the human lifespan. To Yoze however, that wasn't much of a problem as he had the talent and could get some more if he needed more talent and with his current finances he could afford any herb required.

There was also the fact that Yoze didn't intend to train in all the Iron Skin variations just the major ones he has at hand. He already felt that he could create an incredibly strong body with just Iron Skin, Iron Muscles, Iron Bones, and Iron Organs.

Not only that he was going to break through each of their limits so that his overall defensive capability would truly be demonic.

"From now on my defense will no longer be my main weakness." Yoze smiled as he didn't think he would already find some good books so soon.

He then turned to all the remaining martial art books and went through everything he felt would be worthwhile to keep and placed them in a crate he found lying around. After searching every nook and cranny of the Martial Wheel Sect he was able to find many books that he found would be useful.

"Devilish Finger technique makes it so that the moment the user touches their opponent with this technique the battle would have already been won. This is also known as the Touch of Death by many martial artists throughout the world."

"Martial Wheel martial art set contains only 1 body cultivation method that functions as an offensive, defensive, and evasive technique. At its peak, the user would be able to create their own Martial Wheel and incorporate various other techniques to increase its offensive and defensive capabilities."

"The Quick Mind Slow World technique is a method to increase the user's thinking speed by performing certain breathing exercises. At its peak, the user would be able to think around 20 percent faster." 

Yoze looked at the few dozen books in his crate of books and felt his harvest was truly great. With the number of books and martial art manuals he had collected, the need to buy books from New Swampscott City drastically reduced.

Unfortunately, he wasn't able to collect any techniques or body cultivation manuals that could reach the Martial Grandmaster realm but he had already expected that so he wasn't disappointed. During his investigation, he also found where the Martial Wheel Sect kept all their treasures and took what he thought was valuable.

After taking everything he wanted, Yoze decided to take all his current belongings back to New Swamp Town before heading back out to ravage through another martial art sect. Even with the extra weight, Yoze made it to town in around 2 hours before jumping over the wall to get inside. 

He couldn't be bothered to wait in line for several hours to a whole day just to get back into the town. He just found a part of the wall where there weren't any guards or people and jumped over before placing his stuff in Regi's home.

After making sure that no one had tried to get inside Regi's house while he was gone, Yoze snuck out once again to go target a different sect. This time he was aiming for a sect known as the Beast Hunter Sect which from the information that was provided to him trained animals to be their battle partners.

"From the fact that their sect master was able to train an ordinary dog to be as strong as Blood Master is extremely impressive and should be quite useful for me. Maybe I can train Leah in this way so he could become my battle beast." Yoze's mind raced at the possibility but what intrigued him more was how they trained those animals.

He hoped that they had a method to quickly understand animal behavior and their physical bodies so he could use it to advance his Mindless Legs. Lately, he had reached the limit of his current version of Mindless Legs and needed to start incorporating another animal to improve further.
