Chapter 768: Is He Truly Resha?
Chapter 768: Is He Truly Resha?
Upon reaching the Body Stage, a Mammoth Clansman would fuse with the egg of a Pranic
Beast. Following that, using the tusk bone powder of an Empyrean Tusk, they would build the Pranic Beast body.
In terms of shape and size, both were similar, but the Mammoth Clansman counterpart was solely made out of bones, both hard and soft that structurally resembled the original. Only the weight, texture, and shade were different.
Empyrean 100 was a Nature that allowed a Mammoth Clansman to have up to a hundred such bodies. That was Resha's power, an accumulating type Nature that he had focused upon while thinking of the most optimal way to combat the Empyrean Boar King.
After Brangara became the Celestial Boar, Resha was plunged into a state of confusion, for he no longer was confident in his current build being able to hold up to a Brangara that became broken even in the realm of absurdity.
But his confusion was only in his initial days. As Resha spent his time away from the Mammoth Clan, especially the Empyrean Tusks, the influence generated on him wilted away, especially one caused by Sumara Chronicles.
Gradually, through the Major Treasure of Cure, he regained his original character, from which he sought to improve himself. Once he arrived to that line of thought, he understood the Supreme Tusk Gannala's thoughts.
She didn't intend for Resha to simply be the Mammoth Clan's strongest chess piece but instead one capable of exceeding the Mammoth Clan's boundaries and venture into a new territory. After all, Resha expressed the pinnacle of strength a Mammoth Clansman could obtain. Moreover, in every field of expertise a Mammoth Clansman could attain, he was in a class of his own.
The Tertiary Nature of Empyrean 100 was as strong as the Pranic Beast bodies documented in it. Adding that to his existing capabilities allowed Resha to become a dense or featherweight version of all the hundred Pranic Beast body types.
Instead of trying to constantly change his power set, Resha simply intended to tread his existing path to its pinnacle. After all, unlike other Empyrean Tusks, his Biomes had progressed into an Influenced Region to a great extent.
And that gave him a tremendous power, one he planned to verify the potential of against the Celestial Boar.
He was calm, watching Inala's Biome Bomb seep Prana into the body of the Celestial Boar. Resha didn't move an inch and waited until he felt the latter's reserves were full, "Are you ready?"
"You'll regret it." The Celestial Boar's expression was incensed as it condensed the humming energy sword once again, pausing for a moment before creating a second one. Sand swirled around its body and transformed into a tough layer of armour.
The Nature of Imprison could be used both defensively and offensively. After wrapping on the Celestial Boar's body, the sand condensed to its limit until it became a thin layer, one that no longer hindered its movements.
It raised its hand, exerting greater strength than usual. Staring at it from afar was Virala, his eyes widening in response.
'That bastard is using psychokinesis on the sand armour to strengthen his attack and defence to its limit. It's how I fight.' Virala glared at the Celestial Boar, 'He's a fucking pig, one that cannot innovate. But the moment he's revealed of a possibility, he grasps onto it instantly.'
Every single growth attained by Brangara was by fighting the Mystic Paths. Every time he fell prey to their schemes and managed to survive, he grew stronger, by leaps and bounds. It was why once Inala attained his endgame build, he refrained from facing Brangara until he was absolutely ready.
Otherwise, a half-baked plan would do nothing more than strengthen Brangara further.
'And obviously, Resha is also aware of it, the most among us in fact.' Virala thought and stared at the bone figure of the Royal Zinger that Resha had transformed into, 'So, I'm curious to see what he has in store.'
Two giants stood in a confrontation on the sand, their bodies sinking due to their weight. A second later, the body Royal Zinger's body floated out of the sand, resting on the surface once again. The faint wings generated in the desert was enough to move its body out as the wings trailing from its arms acted as the sails of a ship.
'So what if he can transform into the Royal Zinger? It's not as strong as me physically!' The Celestial Boar opened its mouth, unleashed an earth-shattering roar, and rushed towards the body Royal Zinger, humming energy swords ready to destroy the latter.
"Swords?" The body Royal Zinger revealed a smile as it raised its arm and condensed a massive object in the shape of a Prana Bomb and threw it, "You need to get close for that first."
"Hmph!" The Celestial Boar thrust forth with its sword and cleanly severed through the egg- shaped object, about to continue rushing forward when a spike of Prana erupted from the two halves.
Perfect Inertial Gravity-Gravity Funnel!
The Gravity Funnel connected the two halves and brought them together right as the Celestial Boar's body passed through the centre. The two halves slammed into the sides of its face, disorienting its balance for a moment. But then...
"What the fuck...?" The Celestial Boar cursed in shock, noticing that its feet were no longer in contact with the sand. Instead, its feet were hovering at a height of twenty metre above ground level, flailing around, unable to find a foothold.
Its body flew upward steadily, a portion of its body in contact with the bony Royal Zinger's outstretched arm. Cracks formed across its outstretched arm as the body Royal Zinger was clearly struggling.
However, the fact that it managed to lift the Celestial Boar's body was a resounding feat in of itself. Exactly three seconds later, Resha reverted to human form, letting go of his hold as he watched the Celestial Boar plummet face first into the sand.
He stared at his hand and clenched it into a fist, 'Though barely, I can lift the Celestial Boar. This means, once Brangara is exhausted of propulsion type Natures such as Prana Shock, I can simply throw him to a height and watch him fall to his death.'
He still had a long way to go before Resha could treat Brangara's main body in such a way. However, that didn't matter, for he only intended to check the possibility. With a start, his figure flickered towards the Celestial Boar, transforming into the Royal Zinger midway as he flailed his hand.
The Celestial Boar noticed the swipe of the body Royal Zinger's claws and raised its arms up to defend itself. However, even if it could perceive the attack, it couldn't react fast enough.
In terms of a throwing action, the Royal Zinger was unmatched on Sumatra, with the majority
of its strength concentrated in its arms. And when accentuated by the power of Internal Inertial Gravity, Resha's swipe was faster than Inala.
Boom!
A large gash formed on the Celestial Boar's arm, revealing his bones that were partially cut through too. But right as Prana surged into the region in an effort to heal it, the arm bone
around the cut section began to melt.
Secondary Nature-Mystic Bone!
Mammoth Clansmen were able to manipulate bone through Mystic Bone Art to gradually
mould its shape and create various shapes. This was at the Body Stage. Once they enter the Life Stage, their cultivation technique becomes stronger, allowing this moulding process to become faster.
Some of the Mammoth Clansmen relied on this to freely control bone like a liquid, treating its entirety like a Spirit Weapon, mimicking a Cooter Clansman. However, even if they could control it, the bone's properties didn't change.
But the Secondary Nature of Mystic Bone took the characteristics of Mystic Bone Art and elevated it to the extreme, even as a Nature. It allowed Resha to instantaneously refine any piece of bone into the tusk of an Empyrean Tusk.
Depending on the original bone's quality, the quantity of the resulting Empyrean Tusk's tusk he obtained varied. Moreover, once transformed into the bone mimicking the tusk of an Empyrean Tusk, Resha could freely control it as a Spirit Weapon.
Using the claws of the bony Royal Zinger, Resha swiped a gash on the Celestial Boar's arms
and managed to make contact with the latter's arm bones. The moment contact was made, the power of Mystic Bone took effect, beginning to convert the bone around the contact area into an Empyrean Tusk equivalent.
The Celestial Boar's Prana resisted the change, ensuring Resha couldn't create a Spirit Weapon within the Celestial Boar's arms. However, as it was resisting Mystic Bone's effects, it
couldn't heal the injury fast enough.
Boom!
A storm was generated with the bony Royal Zinger's second swipe, causing another series of gashes on the Celestial Boar's arms. The humming energy sword intended to target the third
swipe, but they strangely moved past the target.
Perfect Inertial Gravity-Dispersion!
A gravitational field surrounded Resha that pulled all incoming entities tangentially around
him, causing them to miss their attacks. Had the Celestial Boar possessed even one Nature of
Internal Inertial Gravity, the effects of Dispersion would have been lowered to a tenth of its original, or even lower.
But since Brangara didn't have it, he couldn't defend promptly, taken for a wild spin as
molten bone dripped out of his arm and expanded outward, layering over the arms gradually.
And as they expanded, the power of Mystic Bone increased, before soon, the hands of the Celestial Boar were severed.
As the hands fell, a river of blood flowed upward and entered the Celestial Boar's mouth. The
pair of hands fell as withered husks, ensuring Brangara didn't lose much of his energy levels from the previous exchange.
"That's a strong attack," The Celestial Boar wiped its mouth and glared at Resha, "But you've
already used it against me in the past, Resha."
"Show me something new."
'I need to buy time. My main body should have been informed about this situation by
Sumatra's Transcendent Eater through the Parute Trees.' Brangara thought, feeling creeped out because unlike usual, Resha didn't express any hint of rage.
Instead, he was calmly attacking Brangara, as if he hadn't heard the latter's provocation. 'Is
this truly Resha?'
There was a faint flash in his body as he absorbed the power of Perfect Inertial Gravity using Yarsha Zahara's power that was stored in Yamahara. However, he felt odd, for no matter how much he thought about it, Resha's actions didn't make sense, 'He's only using abilities that
he has already displayed before.'
"Are you truly Resha?" The Celestial Boar frowned in response, gradually getting accustomed to fields of gravity pulling its body apart every time it intended to target Resha.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
