Chapter 144 Leaving the Sandy-Grey Void
Chapter 144 Leaving the Sandy-Grey Void
The Attribute wouldn't even realise its full potential in his hands. Instead, it was better left to Inala.
Even though Inala obtaining the Attribute would make Resha weaker, he didn't care about that, 'In his past life, even with everything, he died a dog's death at the hands of Brangara. No matter how strong he becomes, he'll never be the Boar King's match.'
The reason was simple. Brangara was a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast that could cultivate and have multiple lives.
Even though Resha had the cure, he was a regular cultivator. Meaning, every time he took on an Empyrean Tusk form, he was burning through Prana to maintain the transformation. That wasn't all. An Empyrean Tusk was a Gold Grade Pranic Beast.
Iron, Silver, Gold, and Mystic; the strength jump between every Grade was phenomenal. No Pranic Beast could overcome the Grade difference and defeat a higher-grade Pranic Beast in a one-on-one battle.
Even the Empyrean Boar was an exception only because its mind had collapsed. Therefore, it could be killed easily by a Silver Grade Pranic Beast while it was mimicking the habits of some Pranic Beast unsuited to its constitution.
When Brangara was an adult Empyrean Boar, he held the power of a true Gold Grade Pranic Beast. No Silver Grade Pranic Beast was his opponent.
In terms of power, this gap could never be overcome. Therefore, no matter what Resha does, he could never be the Boar King's opponent.
The Boar King only needs to activate a dozen Internal Inertial Gravity simultaneously and he would wield strength superior to Resha even if he were to have both the Cure and the Attribute.
The Boar King had more than a dozen Internal Inertial Gravity in his arsenal.
Therefore, the realistic way to fight the Boar King was to swarm him. And even though Inala was an Empyrean Zinger, a Silver Grade Pranic Beast, his power was regarding stealing Prana and Lifeforce.
Inala never planned to confront the Boar King. He only intended to set traps for the Boar King and gradually steal all his Lifeforce.
No matter how strong the Boar King got, if he ran out of lifespan, he'd die of old age. For that to happen, Inala had to get the treasure of Attribute.
Even though the reincarnates failed to obtain the Cure, they succeeded in ridding themselves of the Fragment Disease. Therefore, they no longer had to worry about their bones shattering at the slightest exertion and could truly fight for their desires.
All of them, including Resha knew the value of the Attribute. Hence, this time, the competition would be bloodier. In twenty years, everyone would become a powerful elite, also having significant battle experience under their belts.
They would have refined their battle styles and would have become proficient with their Natures.
The Second Major Disaster was more disastrous than the First Major Disaster. Not only was its scale bigger, but the level of enemies was also higher.
Zingers simply launched projectiles to fight. A puncture to their wings and they'll fall to their deaths. They were relatively easier to deal with.
However, the enemies in the Second Major Disaster had tougher bodies and fought head-on. It wasn't just that. The treasure of Attribute appeared in the Brimgan Empire, a major human civilisation.
The Brimgan Empire had existed for thousands of years and held a considerable level of foundation. Its peak powers were on a whole other level, almost on par with Mammoth Clansmen.
The Emperor and Princes possessed Human Avatars on the level of Gold Grade Pranic Beasts. They were walking, talking disasters. They too would be actively participating in the Second Major Disaster for the ownership of the Attribute.
Yes, the enemies in the Second Major Disaster were Free Humans from the Brimgan Empire, a human civilisation that had produced cultivators who once ranked at the top of Sumatra Continent, beings on the level of Renduldu.
Their founder was rumoured to have been on the level of a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast, the rarest exception in the history of Sumatra when a human surpassed a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast.
Due to the terrain at play, the Empyrean Tusks wouldn't be able to interfere. That implied the war was between Mammoth Clansmen and the Brimgan Empire people.
In Sumatra Chronicles, the war was portrayed as one of the most gruesome in the history of Sumatra. Over eighty percent of Mammoth Clansmen were annihilated in the war, causing their overall strength to dip to the extreme.
As a result, the Mammoth Clan failed to fulfil their duties following that, causing the strength of the Empyrean Tusk herd to weaken over time. Eventually, when the Third Major Disaster started, many Empyrean Tusks died.
By the time the Fourth Major Disaster started, the number of Mammoth Clansmen was at their minimum most. The Empyrean Tusks too were weak and exhausted. They were easy pickings for the Boar King.
It was the Second Major Disaster where they truly took an irrecoverable beating. 'Therefore, I need to obtain the Attribute before the war goes into full swing.'
Inala firmed himself and began to make up a plan accordingly.
"I've finished preparations," Asaeya said, slightly tired. She had just finished dumping all excess waste in their house into the Sandy-Grey Void. The region had already finished assimilating the excreta contents cast into it.
The large house was almost empty. They only had enough resources to last them a couple more days.
Asaeya fed a Prana Bomb into the mouth of the rocket. After ten minutes had passed and the two lungs were filled with compressed air, she came to inform him about it.
"Are you ready?" Inala asked.
"Yes, I have practiced enough," Asaeya said, having changed herself into a flowery dress, behaving naturally in it. She had also grown older, now appearing like a woman in her twenties. Her Lifeforce had been absorbed by a Life Bomb to assist with it.
She safely placed the Life Bomb—that Inala had shrunk to nail size—in a locket and strung it to her neck like a necklace. As long as she consumes it, she'll return to her original age.
The moment he created the Life Bomb, Inala grew a decade older, also resembling a man in his twenties. They planned to live as a couple in Ellora Trade City while making preparations for travelling to the Brimgan Empire.
Since they had a baby in tow, this was the most realistic choice. It was best to behave in a way no one would be curious about. Besides, for baby Gannala's mental development, they couldn't remain cooped up here.
At a thought from him, the rocket unleashed a thrust of air, causing their house to rush up through the grey sand and arrive at the surface soon after. Followed by another thrust, they glided over the sandy surface and landed on normal land enclosed by the circular Sandy-Grey Void.
It was nighttime as the Slump Lizards roamed the region. Asaeya climbed out and inhaled a deep breath before becoming relieved that she could vent out all her stress and frustration.
She raised her hand and clapped violently.
