I'll Surpass The MC

Chapter 769: Return of the Supreme Tusk

 n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

There was a reason Yamahara was captured alongside Brangara by Inala. It was to create a hostage situation.

After all, if Yamahara wasn't there, then upon seeing that his situation was perilous, Brangara would have committed suicide. There was zero reason to be captured by the enemy and be subjected to humiliation.

However, his precious son was also here, which meant that irrespective of how bad the situation got, Brangara had to create a way of survival for his son, which made his situation extremely irritating. And the fact that further enhanced the irritation was none other than the individual before him, acting nonchalant, and completely out of character.

"Are you truly Resha?" Brangara returned to human form and glared at the individual before him.

"Why? Does it seem strange that I'm not rushing at you in hatred?" Resha uttered, his voice steady, but chilling, treating Brangara like a dead man, "I'm not arrogant enough to hate on a dead man. Besides,"

He stared at Brangara and chuckled, "You make it seem like only I have a reason to hate you. Did you forget them already?"

"Your precious daughters, I mean."

"Bastard," Anger surged through his being as a pillar of light burst out of Brangara, reaching the sky. However, a moment later, he stared upwards, stunned to see the pillar being blocked by something at a height of two kilometres from the ground.

The pillar of light didn't expand beyond that, rippling at the point of contact to reveal a transparent structure. It was like a layer of water, but floated in the air, powerful enough to stop the beam he generated.

A glance at it and Brangara realised what it was, glaring at Inala in response.

"Attributed Region's water," Inala let out a chuckle, "As an Influenced Region, it can block the beam of light you emit. Moreover, whatever means you've been trying to contact your main body won't work for the same reason."

A snap of his finger and there was a faint ripple across the sky, revealing a massive dome that covered a good part of the desert.

'How...did he manage to gather such a large amount?' Brangara stared at the ginormous dome in shock, 'Even if he stripped all the water from the Attributed Region, it still wouldn't have been enough to make something this massive!'

"I'm done here." Resha's sudden statement broke Brangara out of his reverie, his expression turning fiercer as he noticed Resha walking away.

Even though Brangara would have normally sought to flee by taking advantage of the situation, he felt insulted by Resha's action, "Fucker!"

Astral World-Shredded Lunge x20!

"How dare you?" He stacked all his Natures of Prana Shock atop Shredded Lunge and rushed towards Resha, condensing the wind blades generated at its end into Prana shock and layered it over Eddy Blade to result in the strongest attack his current self could manage.

Moreover, a soft glow covered his body as Yamahara activated Yarsha Zahara's Primary Nature of Incident Nature Reflection, using it as a defence. His blade made an arc and swiped Resha on the neck. However, Resha's body continued to walk forward, despite getting his head severed.

"What...the fuck is happening?" He stared in shock as Resha's severed head was caught by his outstretched hand. It melted into a pool of bone and was absorbed into the hand, following which a new head grew back, sporting a texture of bone before it reverted into skin and hair resembling the original in his human form.

Right as he wondered, Resha's fist flew into his face. He ducked, avoiding it on time when suddenly, a second fist jutted out of the hand and slammed into his face, catching him off guard.

His figure skidded onto the sand, forming a long trench from the impact as Brangara noticed that Yamahara was unable to absorb any of Resha's blood. Instead, it was Yarsha Zahara's power that managed to absorb a portion of Internal Inertial Gravity and Mystic Bone.

However, the trade-off was worse for him, as Brangara noticed a portion of his jawbone melt and drip onto the sand, following which it slithered towards Resha and merged into his body.

Major Treasure-Cure!

After fusing with it, Resha's Primary Nature changed from Internal Inertial Gravity to become Perfect Inertial Gravity. And slowly, over the years, the Major Treasure of Cure was accumulating its influence in all the terrains part of Resha's biomes.

The biomes were his internal organs, which meant that his body was changing gradually. A certain point arrived where the Influenced Region was able to unleash its effect.

Influenced Region-Mammoth Clansman!

Its effects were extremely simple. It considered Resha a Mammoth Clansman part of his Empyrean Tusk form's immune system. Basically, Resha could behave like a Mammoth Clansman and stay in the biomes of his Empyrean Tusk form, controlling the Empyrean Tusk form body from within the safety of the biome.

This meant that unless the specific biome was damaged, he wouldn't come under harm. But that was merely scratching the surface of what he could achieve.

From the very beginning, Resha's powers were the strongest. Perfect Inertial Gravity allowed him to control the very power of gravity that was coupled with the laws of inertia, making him

an unstoppable tank.

Boom!

Brangara clenched his hand into a fist and punched Resha in the face, pushing the latter away by a metre. However, the shockwaves from his punch travelled through the various tunnel systems in Resha, controlled and maintained without losses by the inertia aspects of his Primary Nature.

And then, Resha's right fist approached Brangara, extending like a river to chase after the latter's evasion and strike dead. The punch contained not just the power of his dense swing, but also the shockwaves from Brangara's previous punch.

"That was..." Brangara stared in a daze as a good chunk of his right shoulder was destroyed by the attack. His sheer power was added to Resha's heavy punch in that attack, making it many times stronger.

Basically, it was the same as the Celestial Boar unleashing a punch with the power of Internal Inertial Gravity, the undisputed strongest force of nature to exist on Sumatra. It was always him using it on his prey.

But now, Brangara felt the taste of his own punch, one reinforced by Internal Inertial Gravity, stumbling back in shock, too numb to elicit a proper reaction. 'How did these guys become so strong? Or rather, since when were they this strong?'

During the First Major Disaster, the Mystic Seven were nothing. During the Second Major Disaster, the Mystic Seven were a serious threat. Brangara was aware that at their speed of growth, the Mystic Seven would eventually catch up to him.

However, their threat level dropped once he became the Celestial Boar, making him feel that they wouldn't become dangerous at least by the Third Major Disaster. As long as Yarsha Zahara obtains the Major Treasure of Weapon, their side will become invincible.

But the reality was different. Even at an overestimate, Brangara realised that he had underestimated the Mystic Seven, 'They've already caught up to me.'

"Astral World is by far the strongest Nature on Sumatra, even by a conservative estimate.

However, it is still plagued by the same issue as Astral Chart." Resha muttered slowly as he turned around and walked towards Brangara, looking down on the latter, "It becomes infinitely stronger only when powerful Natures are placed in it."

"As in the past, irrespective of what strategy we used, you'll only need to activate an extra Nature of Internal Inertial Gravity to deal with it. That's it. The reason was extremely simple." He then chuckled, "But you used them all up at the Second Major Disaster. So, what can you do

now, Brangara?"

"The Mystic Seven has already progressed past the stage where Iron and Silver Grade Natures can kill us. They can threaten us, wound us, but never kill us."

He extended his hand and knocked on Brangara's forehead, "Internal Inertial Gravity and Subtle Terrain Domination...things have never changed. They're still the most dangerous combination of Natures you can obtain."

"And honestly, I can't think of any build that can overcome that level of power. After all," He sighed, "If you had fifty of each and activated all hundred of them, I'm afraid even Gold Grade Transcendents won't be your match."

"But the current you don't have them. So," He chuckled, "You're not a threat."

The power that Yahira obtained through Empyrean Thunder was something Resha could now

emulate through Perfect Inertial Gravity, thanks to the power of the Influenced Region of Cure that allowed him to control his Empyrean Tusk form remotely.

But that wasn't all. The reason Brangara could do nothing to him was because of his

complementary Natures.

The Tertiary Nature of Empyrean 100 allowed Resha to transform into hundred Pranic Beast

forms. But the body of these forms was made using the same material as the tusks of an Empyrean Tusk, which was exactly what his Secondary Nature of Mystic Bone created and controlled like a fluid Spirit Weapon.

It basically meant that Resha could play puzzles with his 100 forms and mix-match them as

he pleases, resulting in the birth of monsters way more terrifying than the original. The Primary Nature of Perfect Inertial Gravity ensured that whatever structural form he assumed could function realistically. And now that he had the Royal Zinger's form, every single transformation he built with it as the base had Mystic Grade destructive capabilities.

Internal Inertial Gravity turned an Empyrean Tusk's brittle bones into the hardest material on

Sumatra. In Resha's case, he could also use External Inertial Gravity to rapidly mould and morph the shapes of the transformed body.

The Empyrean Tusk's battle state allowed it to control its exoskeleton like a fluid Spirit Weapon. However, this control was achieved through psychokinesis alone. Resha could add weight to it using External Inertial Gravity, turning him into an absolute monster.

Basically, Resha was a broken Gold Grade existence who could exhibit power at the Mystic

Grade.

Mystic Bone Art, Perfect Inertial Gravity, Mystic Bone, Empyrean 100, and finally, the Major Treasure of Cure's Influenced Region of Mammoth Clansman; they were one frightening combination, elevating all the characteristics a Mammoth Clansman or Empyrean Tusk could achieve and elevated it to the extreme. And that, resulted in the gradual permeation of a certain being's presence, uninhibited and undiminished, unlike her actual self.

Drip! Drip!

Subconsciously, Brangara began to drool as his Primary Nature went crazy, causing him to

feel an uncontrollable hunger. The reason was the presence emanating from Resha, one he wished from the bottom of his heart to devour. "You...you've become Gannala!"

The Supreme Tusk!

The extremely special existence to have been birthed in the Mammoth Clan, one born with the

potential to enter the Mystic Grade but had destroyed her path due to the situation at play

back then.

In the language of the Empyrean Tusks, the word Gannala implied an existence that had surpassed the peak, the Supreme Tusk. It was the heart of the Supreme Tusk that became the Major Treasure of Cure.

The first biome to be fully transformed into the Influenced Region of Mammoth Clansman was the heart biome. When it happened, Resha's Prana was influenced accordingly, causing his presence to morph and begin to emulate the abilities of what the existence hailed as the

Supreme Tusk would have possessed.

"Hahahahaha!" Brangara lost his mind out of hunger, "That's it! That's what I'm talking about! I always regretted the fact that I couldn't kill you."

"But! Thank! You!" Drool flooded his mouth as Brangara glared ravenously at Resha, "You've

given me the opportunity to kill you,"

"Gannala!"
