I'll Surpass The MC

Chapter 281 Time to Grind

Brangara obtained the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator by consuming a large number of Mammoth Clansmen. Of course, if not for the characteristic of his Primary Nature of Voracious Nature, he wouldn't have satisfied the conditions necessary to obtain the Nature of Cultivator.

He didn't use his Primary Nature, but its characteristics influenced his consumption of Mammoth Clansmen and with enough accumulation, paved the way for the birth of his Tertiary Nature of Cultivator.

The current Gannala was in a similar state to Brangara. She didn't have Voracious Nature but instead possessed Mystic Bone Art, which was also a power related to consumption.

Through his Mystic Skill Creator, Inala mapped out a route for her. Of course, the original route was long and abundant with risks. However, after he obtained the Mudropper's data, he was able to modify the route and make it a tad easier.

Gannala will have to consume Cooter Clansmen for that. But she wouldn't consume them directly, but instead through Wittral. The process would be similar to what Brangara had been subjected to under the control of Undrakha.

Fragment Disease was a condition experienced by Mammoth Clansmen born with a genetic makeup close to, if not similar to an Empyrean Tusk. Similarly, Buoyant Disease was the Cooter Clan's equivalent of the Mammoth Clan's Fragment Disease.

Cooter Clansmen with the Buoyant Disease had a negative affinity towards fluids. If they were to touch water, their bodies would become stunned, unable to move. In some situations, they would even experience a heart attack and die.

Touching water was the most dangerous for Cooter Clansmen with the Buoyant Disease, followed by mist, and finally air. Thankfully, breathing in air didn't kill them, but it still caused their bodies a lot of strain, making them feel as if they were drowning, but not to the extent they would suffocate and die.

In the Mammoth Clan, Resha and the six reincarnates with the Fragment Disease had a genetic makeup close to the Supreme Tusk. Hence, when they absorbed the blood of an Empyrean Tusk during their breakthrough from the Spirit Stage to the Body Stage, they obtained the power of an Empyrean Tusk.

There wasn't a Supreme Tusk equivalent among the Empyrean Snappers. After all, they didn't have the assistance of the Mystic Empyrean Tentacle. Hence, they hadn't reached such a point in development.

Therefore, they didn't have anyone like Resha.

But that didn't mean the Cooter Clan lacked ambition. No, they too were actively trying to reach the Mystic Grade. However, since they didn't have the Mystic Empyrean Tentacle's assistance, they could only proceed with the traditional route.

It was to birth the strongest possible Empyrean Snappers. Similar to the Mammoth Clan, when two Cooter Clansmen with the Buoyant Disease copulate, the birthed baby is an Empyrean Snapper. They faced the same difficulties as the Mammoth Clan.

Majority of the time, the woman trying to give birth shrivelled up and died, failing to successfully birth an Empyrean Snapper. And even when there was a successful birth, the Empyrean Snapper would generally be birthed with some genetic defects.

The greater the accumulation of the parents, the lower the number of defects that the Empyrean Snapper would be born with. Hence, the Cooter Clan was obsessed with birthing an Empyrean Snapper without any genetic defects.

The only Empyrean Tusk born without any defects was the previous Gannala, and that too only thanks to the involvement of Renduldu and Undrakha who used the Empyrean Boar race as fuel for her birth.

Of course, Gannala went a step beyond being just a perfect Empyrean Tusk and became a Supreme Tusk.

The Cooter Clan only wanted to birth a perfect Empyrean Snapper. They intended to prepare for the Mystic Grade once there were enough perfectly birthed Empyrean Snappers.

After so long, with endless losses and resource consumption, there finally arrived a couple with the Buoyant Disease who reached the peak of cultivation, attaining the 10-Life Stage. They also unlocked the fourth stage of their Mystic Mist Art, related to the Transcendence Stage. With that, they were able to communicate not only with Empyrean Snappers but also make contact with their Clan's Transcendents in the Transcendent Worlds.

Only after reaching this point did they copulate, giving birth to their first child, an Empyrean Snapper birthed without any genetic defect, the first of its kind. That child was none other than Wittral.

At this point in time, Wittral was twenty-three years old, still in human form. The Cooter Clan wanted to wait until Wittral reached peak strength as a human and then transform into an Empyrean Snapper.

He was their first step towards the Mystic Grade. And hence, a lot of preparation had been made for his growth and maturity as a human.

In Sumatra Chronicles, when Wittral came across Resha, both were at the peak of the Body Stage and were evenly matched. The Resha at that point possessed the Major Treasures of Attribute and Weapon. Despite that, they were evenly matched.

It was a show of Wittral's strength. And Inala intended to capture him, for through him, Gannala would obtain the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator.

If Inala were to proceed about this without making use of Wittral, then it would take Gannala more than a decade to obtain the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator. There was also a decent chance of failure, as too many variables existed in such a place.

Even though Inala could guarantee success with his skill set, he couldn't spend all his time on Gannala. Even if Gannala could reach the Life Stage, her strength would only be a notch inferior to the Resha from Sumatra Chronicles.

That level of strength meant nothing before a peak Boar King who had activated all one hundred Natures of his Astral Chart.

Inala was adamant about obtaining the Major Treasure of Attribute, for his plan to face the Boar King would only work with that in his possession. Otherwise, as long as the Boar King devours a Zinger Queen from the Dieng Canyon, he would be able to counter Inala's abilities easily.

There were three Zinger Queens at the Dieng Canyon. If one is killed, a new one would be birthed to take its place.

Therefore, the only way to ensure Inala's power truly poses harm to the Boar King was by obtaining the Major Treasure of Attribute. He had zero intentions of allowing anyone else to claim it.

Hence, he intended to make Gannala obtain the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator as quickly as possible and head to the Brimgan Empire to prepare for the Second Major Disaster and grab the Major Treasure of Attribute by its end.

Capturing Wittral was the key to it all.

Wittral and Resha encountered each other at a location close to the Guna Caves. Wittral had been active in the region to grow further. Hence, based on that, Inala hoped to discover clues regarding him by arriving at Leh Island, which was the first among the list of islands where Wittral could be.

Wittral wasn't here, but information about him was present in Ralral's data. He was currently at an island eight days journey from Leh Island, which was near enough, considering Inala had a time limit of eighty-six days.

'There are two masters at the 6-Life Stage guarding him. I need to deal with them first if I want to capture Wittral.' Inala thought and stared outside, observing the ice had begun to thaw. The Dralh Sea began to glow as it was now nighttime.

He exited the Sumatra Ship and stared at the glowing sea, "I need to prepare a lot."

"Time to grind!"
