Chapter 751: Influenced Vessel!
Chapter 751: Influenced Vessel!
The Celestial Boar’s horn hovering in the air alighted gently under Brangara’s control. Its bottom end opened to reveal the figures of Orakha and Wrunnala inside, currently mortals,
unconscious.
His entire body was sealed in a layer of Mud Ball, turning him into a sculpture. His mouth had been stuffed with a gelatinous substance, ensuring he couldn’t commit suicide. Ears blocked, eyes covered, Orakha was unable to know where he was or what his current state of being was.
Unable to commit suicide, he was in a helpless state, blocked from even speaking. If only he could speak, he was confident of triggering Brangara through words, enough for the latter to kill him in a burst of anger.
The Tangible Nature of Petrified Geese was fused to his body, maintaining him in a statue of statue. In his current state without a Spirit Container, his body lacking Prana, he was extremely susceptible to its influence.
Wrunnala was in the same state.
And the reason she alone was kept captive was for a simple reason-she was the strongest progeny of the Supreme Tusk Gannala.
Obviously, the level of anger Brangara felt towards her was inferior only to Gannala. However, his motive for capturing her wasn’t for the purpose of torture. The Empyrean Boar King might have done that but the Celestial Boar was capable of seeing past the veil of hatred.
Progeny!
Currently, every single Empyrean Tusk had three Natures, which made them unsuitable for his consumption. It was impossible for him to gain Internal Inertial Gravity by consuming them. Hence, he wanted a new generation of Empyrean Tusks, those with only the Primary Nature of Internal Inertial Gravity.
And what best way to achieve it than through Wrunnala? Moreover, Vhalla was still alive. Brangara intended to capture her alive for the same purpose too.
Wrunnala and Vhalla will birth a new generation of Empyrean Tusks for Brangara’s consumption, allowing him to accumulate a large number of the Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity. The thought alone excited him.
“This fucker…” Yarsha Zahara arrived at a halt before Orakha, her expression incensed upon seeing the latter’s face, “If not for him, I would have been alive!”
Her current state was extremely awkward. Even though she had the Primary Nature of Incident Nature Reflection, its power was limited as her Human Avatar had been destroyed. She was currently at the bottommost level of the Body Stage.
And when Brangara nurtures her through the Life Stage, she would have to rebuild her Human Avatar. Otherwise, she’ll be extremely weak.
Unlike a Pranic Beast that was born with a Nature, a Free Human gained one at the Body Stage. And their power was concentrated in their Human Avatar. Without that, even if through the Primary Nature of Voracious Cultivator, Brangara elevates her to the 2-Life Stage, she’ll implode, for her Human Avatar was incomplete.
This meant that just like when she was alive, she had to build her Human Avatar out of Sumatra Gold. Doing that as a Tangible Nature was tough, for it was an ethereal form of her original self, fragile in comparison.
There was a chance it could crumble on its own, unable to handle the pressure released by her Human Avatar. Therefore, she’d have to be even more careful than before. But worst of all, unless she figured out a proper solution, she was stuck in the Astral World, constantly requiring Brangara’s care.
Her pride was left wounded, for never in her life did she feel so helpless. And the culprit for it was none other than the individual before her.
Veins popped along her arms as Yarsha Zahara wanted nothing more than to kill Orakha, controlling herself only because that would be a stupid decision. After glaring at him to her satisfaction, Yarsha Zahara nodded at Brangara, “I’m ready.”
“Alright,” Brangara took out the Tangible Nature Minor Treasure of Gracious Inheritor from his Astral World and released all the Tangible Natures stored in it.
The Tangible Natures roamed across the place and worked on harvesting the Parute Fruits. They dumped the fruits in the Celestial Boar’s mouth, allowing it to generate a large volume of Prana that funnelled into all the Tangible Natures and prevented them from dissipating.
Without a steady influx of Prana once taken out of the Astral World, a Tangible Nature would gradually dissipate, even if it hadn’t been activated. Even Yarsha Zahara wasn’t immune to this rule, which was why she remained within Brangara’s Spirit Weapon range.
Once the Tangible Nature Minor Treasure of Gracious Inheritor had ejected all its stored Tangible Natures, it walked towards Orakha and stopped before him.
With a thought from Brangara, the Tangible Nature of Statue-that had fused into Orakha’s body-manifested beside him. Once he retracted it, he fused Gracious Inheritor into the latter’s body.
“Guh!” There was a muffled grunt from Orakha who was still unconscious. Through the Tangible Nature Minor Treasure of Gracious Inheritor, Brangara poured his influence into Orakha, affecting his body, mind, and soul.
Gracious Inheritor was a Minor Treasure created from a Vara Human Avatar, whose entire purpose was to inherit Natures from an Empyrean Boar. In essence, it was subservient to the Empyrean Boar Race.
As a Tangible Nature, Gracious Inheritor could absorb Astral World’s influence like a sponge absorbing water. And naturally, as Minor Treasures affected living beings, Orakha’s body was fully being influenced according to Brangara’s wishes.
“That should be enough.” Yarsha Zahara said and approached Brangara, touching his forehead as she entered his body, housed within Gracious Inheritor.
If necessary, she could directly fuse with his body, but there were risks associated with that, especially at the moment Orakha regained his Human Avatar. Gracious Inheritor creates a medium for Brangara to pour his influence into Orakha and keep him in check.
This way, Gracious Inheritor becomes the battlefield. Otherwise, if Yarsha Zahara fused with Orakha, then the outlet for Brangara to pour his influence into Orakha would be through her, which would turn her into the battlefield where Brangara’s influence and Orakha’s resistance
clashed.
“Hmph!” Yarsha Zahara grunted as she absorbed the Prana funnelling into her from Brangara and unleashed her influence, beginning to affect Orakha through the Minor Treasure of Gracious Inheritor. This way, the effectiveness was significantly higher.
Moreover, on a mortal, the influence generated from a Mystic Grade existence was irresistible. In a matter of seconds, Orakha’s body began to change, gradually attuning itself more and more to Yarsha Zahara’s preference.
In the meantime, Brangara was busy crushing a large batch of Parute Fruits to create an elixir.
Spirit Container Birth Elixir!
He had spied upon Inala’s actions at the Dralh Sea, looking into all the research documents regarding the creation of a Spirit Container in the bodies of Inala and Wittral. He had participated in the research too, aware of the means to create a Spirit Container.
Using Mystic Sumatra Art, he improved the method to create the Spirit Container Birth Elixir. Since Loot was capable of stealing Spirit Containers alone, there must be a method to make new ones, which was what prompted him to focus on this.
Many months later, Brangara entered the Celestial Boar horn and stared at the figure of Orakha that now closely resembled Yarsha Zahara. Her influence had been affecting his body all along, shaping it up according to her desires.
The eyes shot open and observed Brangara, signalling that it was time.
“Come out the moment you feel anything is amiss,” Brangara said in caution and used Subtle Terrain Domination to form a tiny hole in Orakha’s throat, creating an entryway into his food pipe. There was a mild spike in Prana as he held the Spirit Container Birth Elixir.
The substance within flowed out thinly, under the effects of Subtle Terrain Domination, and flowed into the food pipe through the pinhole. A couple dozen seconds later, the vial’s contents had been emptied into Orakha’s stomach.
As the digestion process began, a large amount of Prana mixed into the blood and gathered at the heart, gradually condensing a Spirit Container.
Immediately in response, there was a mild jerk as it was Orakha’s Prana, which resisted the foreign influence. However, the Spirit Container was at the Spirit Stage, housing only a single unit of Prana. It became impossible for it to resist Yarsha Zahara’s Mystic Grade influence.
“How is it?” Brangara asked nervously, his body tense, enhancing Subtle Terrain Domination to the limit. Even though Orakha couldn’t use the power of his Human Avatar as he was at the Spirit Stage, the moment he got a Spirit Container, he regained his Primary and Tertiary
Natures.
The Primary Nature of Human Avatar was only useful at the Body Stage. But, the worrisome
part was something else.
Tertiary Nature-Mystic Eater!
Prompted by Orakha’s Prana, a Mystic Eater condensed and targeted Gracious Inheritor spontaneously. However, it dissipated due to the sheer presence being generated by the Minor Treasure.
It had only been condensed by one unit after all. And once the Spirit Container was empty, it experienced the full brunt of Yarsha Zahara’s influence through the Minor Treasure, showing signs of mutation.
“Ke…keke…kekeke!” A muffled laughter echoed as a Mystic Eater appeared, but docile to her. It coiled around the arm and cutely stared at Orakha’s changed face. As Prana surged into its body, the Mystic Eater grew in size and ate through the layer of Mud Ball, freeing the body.
Yarsha Zahara got up, feeling a mild disconnect between her and the body. There was a serious lag, with the body performing actions in accordance with her thoughts a whole five seconds later.
But that would vanish over time as her influence continues to morph the body, “And…once it mutates, it’ll get a Secondary Nature that makes this a perfect vessel for me.”
Orakha wasn’t a Free Human but a Mammoth Clansman acting as a Free Human. This meant
that by placing himself in an extreme situation, he could experience a mutation to gain a Secondary Nature.
This was something Yarsha Zahara figured out in Sumatra Chronicles. And it was through her assistance that Resha obtained his Tertiary Nature of Spirit Moss Cultivator.
Her original plan was to fuse the Tangible Nature Minore Treasure of Gracious Inheritor-
with all 3600 plus Tangible Natures stored in it-with a weakened Orakha. The sheer influence it generated would destroy his mind.
After capturing him, she intended to torture him in such a state until he had zero chance of
making a recovery. After all, even when he gets revived by Blola, his mind would have become
a cripple. But since she was killed by him, she had to resort to this change.
“How…is it?” Brangara asked, maintain a decent distance from Yarsha Zahara. After all,
though it looked like her, it was Orakha’s body, and the organs too were that of a male.
“Ridiculously disgusting!” Yarsha Zahara spat out in irritation, “But beggars cannot be choosers. This is merely a vessel to contain me.”
“I wanted to steal the Nature of Mystic Eater from him anyway,” She said, clenching her hand
into a fist, “Now, I’ll try the same.”
“Even as a Tangible Nature, I’ll try to gain it as my Tertiary Nature!” She proclaimed, “And
using them, I’ll build a powerful Human Avatar that allows me to move about on my own, as
if I’m alive.”
“Have you collected all the pieces of Sumatra Gold?” She asked next.
“Yes,” Brangara pointed at the storage lantern hung on his hip, “They’re all here.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t save any of your Minor Treasures.”
“They were all destroyed by the explosion.” He sighed at the loss, especially for the four
Minor Treasures of Lunchbox and the Minor Treasure of Kinesis Feline. They were incredibly valuable, “That explosion destroyed even my body.”
“You can’t expect the Minor Treasures to remain unscathed from something that terrifying.”
He said before thinking, ‘At least, we have fully neutralised the Orange Mystic Path. Had he been given a few more decades, he would have grown even more through the Mystic Grade.’
