Chapter 316 Familiar Figure’s Tale
Chapter 316 Familiar Figure’s Tale
Resha wasn’t aware of the entire truth, but thanks to Orakha’s multiple revivals, some of the information about the Supreme Tusk in the Transcendent Eater was revealed. Raaha learnt about it from Orakha and then informed Resha.
It was through this that Resha knew about the Supreme Tusk Gannala’s plans regarding her seven children, the goal of which was to kill the Boar King and reach the Mystic Grade.
When one of the seven has a child, the path to the Mystic Grade in them is transferred to the child. But if the child isn’t an Empyrean Tusk, then the path is lost forever.
After all, it acts like a bridge between the seven and their respective children, accumulating the countless variables they create to forge a path to the Mystic Grade.
Resha stared at the cup before him. It was four times larger than his head and instinctively upon perceiving it, he was able to conclude that the cup had a volume of 27 litres. Currently, it was empty.
But based on the information he could perceive, Resha realised that all his actions, experiences, and various accumulations would concentrate in this cup in liquid form.
When he has a child, this cup will be transferred to the child. Even after that, Resha’s actions would continue to accumulate in the cup. And the day this cup becomes full is when his child—if born an Empyrean Tusk—will become a Mystic Grade Empyrean Tusk.
The case was the same between Inala and Gannala. But as Inala hadn’t unlocked the final level of Mystic Bone Art, he couldn’t perceive the Path in him.
In Inala’s case, the ship had already set sail. Inala’s actions would continue to accumulate in the cup within Gannala. And when it becomes full, Gannala will reach the Mystic Grade.
But the problem was the fact that all paths were different. And unless the action is related to the path, it wouldn’t condense anything within the cup. Hence, one needs to do a lot of trial and error before they succeed.
Since the reincarnates knew the plot beforehand, they were able to take action in a variety of fields, something Mammoth Clansmen their age would never even dream about. Forget their peers, even the Mammoth Clan masters hardly did anything spectacular other than remaining in their Settlement and defending it.
But every single reincarnate went through a lot, stirring up shit in a mere year that surpassed what the entire Mammoth Clan did in that period.
It was because they had the perspectives of two different worlds and, hence weren’t restricted to one thought process. They could always think out of the box and do things that those on Sumatra Continent could never even dream about.
The paths were in the seven but took effect upon their children, and only in the case they were born an Empyrean Tusk.
Things proceeded beyond Inala’s control, and hence, he ended up losing the path to Gannala. The case was the same for Yennda. His path was in Harrala.
Resha didn’t wish to lose his path, a reason why he told Yahira to refrain from bearing a child for the time being.
He obtained the Major Treasure of Cure, possessing a Primary Nature that was the perfect form of Internal Inertial Gravity. Therefore, unlike the reincarnates, Resha had the possibility of becoming a Mystic Grade Empyrean Tusk.
As long as he retained the path in him, once it becomes full, its accumulation would be unleashed on himself, resulting in his evolution. He had the capacity to make it a reality.
Resha absorbed the Empyrean Tusk essence generated by the Empyrean Incubator and poured it into his Spirit Container, feeling his Primary Nature become active. Fused into it was the Major Treasure of Cure, the Supreme Tusk Gannala’s ultimate creation.
It began to absorb this essence, displaying faint signs of development. Resha noticed a drop appear in the cup, smiling in response, ‘Yes, as long as I continue to concentrate the essence of an Empyrean Tusk in myself, the Cure will continue to influence my body to become more and more like an Empyrean Tusk.’
Resha stared at the index finger on his left hand and retracted the power of Internal Inertial Gravity there. He flicked it once and observed the finger bone had cracked in response, ‘Good, it’s growing more brittle.’
The Fragment Disease was merely a Mammoth Clansman being born more an Empyrean Tusk than a human. Brittle bones were the characteristic of Empyrean Tusks. Therefore, the more brittle his bones get, the more his human body becomes genetically similar to an Empyrean Tusk.
Every minute he absorbed the Empyrean Tusk essence through his Cure, Resha’s body evolved. And the more he evolved, the stronger his Cure got, creating a beneficial cycle. Maybe in the future, he wouldn’t need to spend Prana to take on his Empyrean Tusk form. It would become a natural state of his being, like how the Empyrean Boar King form was for Brangara.
‘When I’m done, not only would I enter the Mystic Grade, but I might even attain the status of a Supreme Tusk.’ Resha thought, grinning in excitement. As long as that happens, he could influence his children into being born with the Fragment Disease.
And once they absorb the blood of an Empyrean Tusk while breaking through to the Body Stage, they’ll obtain the power of an Empyrean Tusk. For a moment, Resha imagined a scene of tens of his children casually walking in their human forms before becoming Empyrean Tusks.
‘This time, I’m killing you without fail, Boar King.’ Resha’s eyes glinted with bloodthirstiness. He quickly concealed his bloodlust, for those under the Life Stage would go mad when subjected to it without protection.
The memory of the Mammoth Clan’s annihilation was ingrained in his mind. This time, the one getting annihilated wouldn’t be the Mammoth Clan, but the Boar King. “I’ll make damn sure of it.”
…
‘Is someone cursing me?’ The Boar King felt an itch in his ear as he glared at the familiar individual before him, “What the fuck did you say?”
“Did you not hear me the first time?” The familiar figure rolled his eyes, “It’s cringe, so I won’t bother repeating it. Instead, I’ll prove it through this…”
Intense presence radiated out of his being, rattling the Pranic Beasts swimming closer to the desert island. It was a catastrophic amount that was powerful enough to knock out Iron Grade Pranic Beasts unconscious.
The Boar King’s expression turned serious in response, thinking, ‘At first glance, it seems like he’s in the Mystic Grade, but he isn’t. He’s somewhere between the Gold and Mystic Grade. Also, his presence…’
The Boar King became irritated, ‘For those unaware, it would seem like my presence. But it’s a bit different from mine. For a better perspective, it’s similar to an Empyrean Boar…’
“That’s impossible!” The Boar King glared in anger, “I’m the last of my race.”
“Too bad, that’s not true.” The familiar figure shrugged, “Back when the Empyrean Tusks left Sumatra Continent, they brought with them four baby Empyrean Boars. We were then reared on the other continent and nurtured to become servants to the Mammoth Clan, generation after generation.”
“Is that fucking true?” Rage built up in the Boar King, his body on the verge of erupting, “The Mammoth Clan is treating the Empyrean Boars as servants?”
“It’s unrelated to you, so don’t worry about it.” The familiar figure waved his hand, “They are all dead anyway.”
“Did you devour them?” The Boar King was stupefied for a moment before glaring in response, “Did you fucking eat your own brethren?”
“Well, I stumbled upon your documents managed by the Mammoth Clan. I simply followed the instructions.” The familiar figure sighed, “But they were damaged. So even after I devoured all my brethren on that continent, I failed to reach the Mystic Grade. Which brings me here.”
He grinned and stared at the Boar King with a fawning expression, “So, why don’t you tell me the truth,”
“Big brother?”
