I'll Surpass The MC

Chapter 258 Empyrean 100

Resha calmly sauntered into the Red-Draft River, using his Primary Nature of Total Inertial Gravity to hold a large volume of air in his lungs.

He targeted a large Pranic Beast swimming in the river with his Primary Nature, causing his body to be naturally attracted to the latter and, as a result moving quickly through the water.

The targeted Pranic Beast sensed his approach and launched an ink cloud, one with poisonous properties towards him. And using the chance, it tried to flee away.

Resha didn't even flinch at the attack and instead calmly unleashed a gravitational flux directed from his sites, positioned ten metres away from him.

As the ink cloud was denser than the water, the particles forming it were more affected by gravity, causing them to flow towards the two gravitational flux sources he had created. As the ink clouds moved to the side, a gap parted open in the centre. He passed through it calmly.

Like an energy stream of Prana used to control a Spirit Weapon through psychokinesis, the field of gravitational attraction Resha unleashed towards the targeted Pranic Beast remained stable. As a result, when the Pranic Beast fled, his body was pulled like an object tied to a car.

He unleashed it from a distance of eighty metres. That distance was comfortably maintained no matter how fast the Pranic Beast fled, irrespective of the hydro acrobatics it displayed as evasive manoeuvres.

'It's decently fast.' Resha commented as he strengthened the gravitational attractive force and quickly closed in on the Pranic Beast.

There was a sudden pulse of Prana, generating a powerful shockwave through the river waters as a gigantic Empyrean Tusk appeared. Its trunk touched the Pranic Beast. A terrifying force of gravity was generated through the point of contact, preventing the Pranic Beast from breaking free.

It thrashed in pain as its flesh began to peel off. A couple dozen seconds later, only its skeleton was in place. The rest of its body had been washed away by the undercurrents.

The Empyrean Tusk opened its mouth and swallowed this skeleton, digesting it in a matter of seconds. Prana churned within its body as a vacuum was generated in the water following its disappearance.

Resha hovered in the centre, watching the water slam into him from all sides. He was unaffected by the water pressure and instead focused on the skeleton he had devoured, absorbing the information coded in it.

Following that, he grinned, transforming into the skeleton form of the Pranic Beast he had just hunted. A few seconds later, bone in fluid form jutted out of the skeleton and filled up the body, taking on a form no different to if a Mammoth Clansman were to transform into said Pranic Beast.

A Pranic Beast originally had skin, fur, etc. covering its body. When a Mammoth Clansman transforms into said Pranic Beast, their body would resemble an ivory version of the Pranic Beast. The same fur would be made using ivory, tougher than the original.

It was because the material used by a Mammoth Clansman to build their body was tusk bone powder. Hence, there was a difference in appearance between a Mammoth Clansman's transformation and the Pranic Beast's original form.

Resha's transformation was exactly the Mammoth Clansman counterpart of the Pranic Beast. Once fully transformed, he swam through the river water without issues, many times faster than his human form could ever afford.

Tertiary Nature—Empyrean 100!

That was the secret behind this transformation, inspired by the ultimate enemy he faced in his past life, one he suffered a dog's death under.

Primary Nature—Perfect Inertial Gravity!

The summation of Internal Inertial Gravity and External Inertial Gravity was his Primary Nature, allowing him to use this power both inside and outside his body. This power was a lot more powerful than his previous life's state, even after obtaining the Major Treasure of Attribute.

Its external aspect gave it endless variations.

Secondary Nature—Mystic Bone!

This was the same power as his previous life. It had no differences.

A Mammoth Clansman could use Mystic Bone Art to refine a piece of bone into any shape as they pleased. Of course, depending on the quality of the piece of bone, the time and Prana required varied.

Being able to do the same actively and instantaneously, not to mention controlling bone in fluid form like it was a Spirit Weapon was what his Secondary Nature granted.

A Spirit Weapon had to be in solid form, with distinct boundaries for psychokinesis to be able to control it. This was a hard rule of their cultivation, followed by all humans and Pranic Beasts.

But the one that blurred this limit was the Cooter Clan, capable of controlling substances without a distinct limit as their Spirit Weapon.

Using that as an inspiration in the Mystic Bone Art resulted in the Secondary Nature of Mystic Bone, Resha's most prized power. With his genius combat capabilities, the level of strength unleashed through Mystic Bone was on a whole other level, unable to be replicated by the reincarnates.

Only he was capable.

It had proved its effectiveness hundreds of times in his past life. Moreover, Resha was capable of refining a stream of bone and filtering it to ensure the resultant substance was on par with an Empyrean Tusk's prized tusk.

It meant that Resha was capable of refining any piece of bone from any human or Pranic Beast to the level of an Empyrean Tusk's tusk.

That was the reason his Secondary Nature was termed Mystic Bone.

This then led to his Tertiary Nature, the power he gained while thinking of the most effective means of countering the Boar King, created when he camped in the previous Gannala's heart.

Empyrean 100 was tremendously inspired by the Boar King's Voracious Nature and Astral Chart. Through it, Resha was capable of absorbing the skeletal data of any creature of his target and store it in his Tertiary Nature.

When necessary, he could transform into said Pranic Beast. This was only in terms of physical transformation. Resha didn't obtain the target's Nature.

The thing is, with how many times the Boar King fought the Empyrean Tusks, he knew the best way to strike them. He took advantage of the limited time frame of an Empyrean Tusk's combat form and remained on the evasive until time ran out.

Following that, once the Empyrean Tusk returned to its energy-saving form, the Boar King bombarded them with attacks at regions that couldn't be defended against, ending up easily killing them.

Resha knew with personal experience how futile his strength was before the Boar King who evaded his Empyrean Tusk form casually. It was why he died without being able to even scratch the endgame Boar King.

As a result, the solution was to change his physical form without removing the essence of what constituted an Empyrean Tusk's strength.

It was possible through his Tertiary Nature where the shape of his Empyrean Tusk form would change into different Pranic Beasts. This way, Resha would have variety in his mode of attack.

Best of all, he could store the data of 100 creatures in his Tertiary Nature of Empyrean 100, capable of freely transforming into any of them.

A fish swam the best in water. Hence, he assumed the form of a marine Pranic Beast with decent swimming speed. In the future, Resha intended to have a form perfect for all sorts of environments, ensuring he would be ready to face the Boar King no matter where they were to confront each other.
