I'll Surpass The MC

709  Gannala’s Empyrean Boar Farm

Nature Weapon—Empyrean Boar Transformation!

At the Zahara Kingdom, Gannala had kidnapped a newborn Wean Clansman and turned him into a Nature Weapon. From time to time, she used Dance of Recovery to revert the newborn into human form and nurture him.

Once she returned to the Mammoth Clan, the first thing she did was to approach Maroppa and take advantage of the latter's Prime Skill of Nature Weapon Assimilation. Gannala had the perfect item for this already, having obtained it from Ruvva, which was the condition for her release.

Nature Weapon—Astral Weaponiser!

Once Ruvva succeeded in turning a Free Human into a Mystic Human, Gannala used Weaponisation to transform the Mystic Human into a Nature Weapon. And before the year's time was up, she had returned to the Mammoth Clan.

Using the Prime Skill of Nature Weapon Assimilation, Maroppa fused Astral Weaponiser into Empyrean Boar Transformation. The resultant was a Nature Weapon containing the Nature of Empyrean Boar Transformation.

There was no change in its name, as its function remained the same. The only difference after Astral Weaponiser had been used on it was the fact that upon activating it, the entity equipped with the Nature Weapon would transform into an Empyrean Boar but wouldn't obtain the Secondary Nature of Voracious Nature that Wean Clansmen got.

Instead, Astral Weaponiser reinforced the transformation aspect, allowing Gannala to change the target into an Empyrean Boar without affecting them in any other way whatsoever.

And as long as she equips it onto a Free Human and activates it, the Free Human would transform into an Empyrean Boar. They'll be stuck in that state once she removes the Nature Weapon.

They'll have all the properties of an Empyrean Boar's body, from the physical capabilities of its physique, to its mental faculties as a Gold Grade Pranic Beast, and Gold Grade Prana. However, this could only be used on Free Humans that don't have a Nature.

Therefore, Spirit Stage Free Humans were her target. Upon transforming them into Empyrean Boars, Gannala will allow them to graze freely until they are fattened up to the limit and their bodies reach maturity.

Following that, she'd consume them to rapidly grow in strength. As the Supreme Tusk's successor, Gannala inherited a decent portion of Brangara's characteristics in being able to accelerate maturity by consuming Gold Grade Pranic Beasts, especially Empyrean Tusks.

And with her history, she could attain a similar result by consuming Empyrean Boars, as that was how her predecessor was created in the first place—by making Brangara consume the hearts of his brethren.

Moreover, the biggest reason Gannala used Astral Weaponiser was to erase the influence of Voracious Nature from Empyrean Boar Transformation. This way, she could transform her Mammoth Clansmen at the Spirit Stage into Empyrean Boars, and make them infiltrate the Varahan Empire.

'When Empyrean Boars slaughter the citizens, it'll shatter the relationship between the Free Humans and Wean Clansmen in the Varahan Empire. A civil war would erupt in their midst.' She thought while observing the Nature Weapon, having left the Cooter Clan territory upon completing her work there.

Both her and Harrala's biomes were filled to the brim with medicines, so they planned to capitalise on that first and return to the Cooter Clan once they had used them all up.

"Don't worry about it," Gannala noticed a concerned stare from Harrala and pocketed the Nature Weapon of Empyrean Boar Transformation, "I won't risk my life."

"Let's head somewhere safe first," Harrala said as the two women flickered alongside the banks of the Red-Draft River and stopped at a grassland where the strongest groups were only Iron Grade Pranic Beasts.

"Please promise me that you won't infiltrate the Varahan Empire." Harrala said, her gaze hardening in response, "You had a close call with Brangara already. He'll be prepared to capture you the next time."

"I know," Gannala smiled wryly, "Isn't that why we're strengthening our Mammoth Clansmen?"

The only two Empyrean Tusks left on Sumatra now were Gannala and Harrala. So, they had to reforge a new foundation for the Mammoth Clan, with Gold Grade strength, and hopefully develop them enough so that they could keep up with the forces of the Varahan Empire whose bottom strength began at the Silver Grade.

"I'll be honest, Gannala." Harrala let out a forlorn sigh as she made eye contact, trembling in fear, "I wish to support you, but I'm afraid. I have yet to recover from the Celestial Boar's presence that I felt during the Second Major Disaster." "I know," Gannala hugged Harrala, "Which is why I'm grateful that you're with me. I feel strength when I know you have my back. That's more than enough."

"Leave the shitty stuff to me," Gannala said and patted her Nature Weapon of Empyrean Boar Transformation, "You don't need to stress yourself regarding that." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"But we're similar in age." Harrala frowned, her mood in the dumps, "How can I sit on the sidelines when my sister is risking her life and bloodying her hands?"

Gannala's eyes were strained as she stared at Harrala, not saying anything as she hugged the latter, "Thank you."

"Thank you for deciding to stay behind."

"Yes, I'll always have your back." Harrala nodded as she tightened her hug.

'But, this is my fight. I won't endanger your life.' As she hugged Harrala, her expression hardened as Gannala firmed her mind, 'I'm the one Brangara is after. Maybe if I'm dead, Brangara will finally obtain closure to his hatred. He might no longer chase after Empyrean Tusks after that.'

'No, I'll ensure his burning hatred is entirely concentrated on me. That way, even if I fail and am killed by him, the Mammoth Clan remains unharmed since he'll be satisfied upon slaughtering me.' Her fingers trembled at the thought of having to face Brangara once again, but she put on a brave front to ensure Harrala wouldn't notice her emotional upheavals.

"Let's focus on happy stuff now," Gannala broke free from the hug and forced a chirpy voice out of her, "How's Yahard Tusk now? Has he become a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle?"

"Not yet," Harrala shook her head, "He has the power of the Iron, Silver, and Gold Empyrean Tentacles, but they're still in the process of harmonising with each other. It's taking a lot longer than I had thought."

She sighed and commented after a few seconds of silence, "Had it been the Chief, the process would have ended long ago."

She then stared at Gannala, "Orakha would have been even faster. I think he would have barely taken a few hours to become a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle."

"It has been three years and Yahard Tusk is probably not even halfway in the synchronisation process." She muttered with a dejected expression, feeling that her lack of talent was the cause.

Before the First Major Disaster, among their herd of 44 Empyrean Tusks, the Supreme Tusk Gannala was at the last, associated as the 44th Empyrean Tusk. That was not only because she was old, but she had combusted her potential to assume human form upon escaping from the Sandy-Grey Void, and consumed most of her strength to result in the creation of 43 Empyrean Tusks.

Even the strongest of Empyrean Tusks could at most manage to birth two Empyrean Tusks, but the Supreme Tusk alone far exceeded that limit.

Gannala inherited the Supreme Tusk's genetics and hence would have eventually become the 1st Empyrean Tusk even if she only had Internal Inertial Gravity.

However, the case wasn't the same for Harrala. She used to be the 43rd Empyrean Tusk, the weakest of the group. Her rank remained consistent from the start, as all Empyrean Tusks were birthed at similar times, with at most a few years of age difference.

Despite that, due to the irregularity of her genetics, she had begun aging faster than other Empyrean Tusks. And her successor, the current Harrala wouldn't have even been born successfully if not for Grehha.

And due to the Mammoth Clan's hurry, Grehha only managed to give Harrala enough Empyrean Tusk essence so that she could be birthed successfully. Her potential was still one of the lowest among Empyrean Tusks.

Being a Mystic Path Inheritor didn't improve her standing much, at most making her as competent as an average Empyrean Tusk. Worst of all, the Yellow Mystic Path had the lowest potential among all Mystic Paths.

So even if it gets filled, Harrala had no guarantee of evolving to the Mystic Grade. As a result, she had been depressed throughout her life, similar to her father. And even now, she felt responsible for Yahard Tusk's delay.

'Only after he succeeds can I contribute something to our situation.' She thought in disappointment, shaking her head when Gannala patted her in an effort to console her.

"Let him take his time." Gannala said, "We're not in a hurry. As long as he succeeds, he'll have the power of the Mystic Empyrean Tentacle. Moreover, he'll reach the 8-Life Stage with that power, and that'll easily place him at the top of Sumatra, on par or even surpassing the current Celestial Boar."

"I can only hope he succeeds soon enough that our advantage against Brangara doesn't reduce further," Harrala nodded as the duo walked through the grasslands until they eventually stumbled upon a weak Free Human Kingdom that was almost in ruins.

There were only forty Iron Grade Free Humans at the body stage, with one Life Stage Free Human leading the group. He too only had Iron Grade strength, so the Kingdom was extremely weak. However, their surroundings were equally weak too, so they continued to survive without facing ruin yet.

"Don't look if it gets hard to bear for you," Gannala said, equipped herself onto the Nature slot of a middle-aged woman—the human form of a Millinger—and entered the Free Human Kingdom. Within an hour, she trapped everyone in bone cages.

The power of Inhibition Dome prevented the Free Humans from resisting her control as she steadily wiped their memories clean, transforming them into a blank slate. Following that, she equipped the Nature Weapon of Empyrean Boar Transformation on the closest target and activated it.

The Spirit Stage Free Human didn't have enough Prana for the transformation, so she had to supply her own, watching the transformation take effect soon after, turning the Free Human into an Empyrean Boar.

The Empyrean Boar had a blank gaze, looking no different from an Empyrean Boar that was three days old. Gannala inspected it and didn't detect any problems. Following that, she placed them all in a large container of bone that Harrala carried as her Spirit Weapon.

With her Secondary Nature of Kinesis Lantern Deity, the weight she could carry using her Spirit Weapon far surpassed Gannala. Hence, she was in charge of transportation.

"Come, eat this." Gannala captured a group of Iron Grade Pranic Beasts and dragged them to the Empyrean Boar, smiling upon seeing the latter gorge on them instinctively. 'Even with a blank mind, it can still feel hunger. As expected of a pig!'

There was anger and disdain in her expression as she fed the Empyrean Boar, observing its body growing bigger at speeds visible to the naked eye, 'An Empyrean Boar only needs two years to reach maturity.'

Through Astral Weaponiser, Gannala had maximised the physical properties of the Empyrean Boar Transformation, ensuring it closely mimicked the original Pranic Beast and not its Wean Clansman counterpart.

The duo began to rear the rest of the Empyrean Boars, maintaining a farm of fifteen hundred. Gannala intended to replenish their numbers by four daily, which was how much she planned to consume daily.

After two years, she'll have a steady line of mature Empyrean Boars while turning the captured Free Humans into Empyrean Boars, adding four piglets to the farm while consuming four mature ones daily.

'By taking advantage of this farm, even if the growth percentage I attain from the consumption of a single Empyrean Boar is limited, I'll be able to accelerate my growth rapidly.' Gannala thought. An Empyrean Tusk required a century to attain maturity.

She was currently 38 years old and close to hitting the halfway point of her maturity. Based on her calculation, she'll reach the peak of the Body Stage after six years and require around a decade to reach maturity for each successive body.

'In the best-case scenario, I'll be at the 4-Life Stage during the Third Major Disaster.' Gannala thought, letting out a smile in relief, 'At least in terms of growth speed, I'm not lagging too much when compared to Brangara.'
