Chapter 161 Iron Empyrean Tentacle’s Power
"What do you wish to do, Yennda?" Orakha asked once he was revived for the third time.
"I…don't know." Yennda said, drooping in sadness, "Whatever I planned for has failed. Now, I'm simply Blola's slave. I have no future."
"I see," Muttering as such, Orakha walked away. Arriving behind a large boulder, he watched an energy barrier erect around themselves and spoke, "Chief, as long as his body absorbs enough blood of an Empyrean Tusk, he'll become one too."
"Does that apply to everyone with the Fragment Disease?" Raaha asked.
"No," Orakha shook his head, "Based on what I absorbed this time, it seems only us seven are eligible for that."
"Alright, go find out more." Saying so, Raaha vaporised Orakha.
Coded within the Transcendent Eater was information about all seven Death Row students. And this information was being updated in real-time through Renduldu's power infused within it.
Blola's Spirit Container was the baby Empyrean Tusk he had killed and absorbed the heart of. The Transcendent Eater had used that as its pot to take root and grow within, gradually filling up the container.
Therefore, present within the container was the essence of both an Empyrean Tusk and Transcendent Eater. While Orakha's body was being constructed, his Fragment Disease harnessed the Empyrean Tusk essence naturally.
And while it flowed into his body, it also tugged part of the Transcendent Eater essence into him. Present in the Transcendent Eater essence was the coded data. As Orakha absorbed it, he gained information gathered by Resha and the reincarnates.
Yennda couldn't do so since his Fragment Disease was at its weakest. He had given birth to a baby Empyrean Tusk after all. Therefore, the path Gannala established in him had already been transferred to baby Harrala.
As a result, Yennda caused no reaction in the Empyrean Tusk essence.
Originally, Yennda's situation was supposed to be the case for everyone. Despite the danger involved, all reincarnates knew better to survive and accumulate strength strategically. Even if they died, it would only be after they had attained the Body Stage at the very least.
By then, they all would have a child or two and the paths in them would have moved into their children. Even Renduldu assumed that to be the case.
But as a regressor, Resha's actions could no longer be predicted. And when he killed Orakha, things went out of plan right then and there.
And now, Orakha was at the Spirit Stage. His Fragment Disease was at its full power, not to mention the path in him being the second strongest among the seven. As a result, his presence instinctively called forth the Empyrean Tusk essence within the Transcendent Eater.
Most of all, he died on the first day, the day when the souls of all reincarnates had surfaced as a result of Renduldu's power.
Therefore, when he was being revived, Orakha's body was being built in the same state as his death. That state also included Renduldu's power which affected him at the time.
As a result, every time he revived, Orakha absorbed the essence of the powers dominant in the Transcendent Eater—Empyrean Tusk, Renduldu, and Transcendent Eater.
Upon activating his Mystic Bone Art, the absorbed essences fused into his body, gradually causing his Prana levels to increase. By his twentieth revival, Orakha reached the peak of the Spirit Stage and fused his 100 Spirit Containers into a singular whole.
Raaha killed him right after.
The Transcendent Eater began to revive him immediately. This time, he was being built at a cultivation level that had just entered the Body Stage, but with an empty Spirit Container.
To truly enter the Body Stage, he would have to fuse with a Pranic Beast egg. Orakha wished to experiment and see if it was possible.
After all, Resha gained the cure in that state within Gannala's heart by absorbing her essence nonstop. Even without fusing with a Pranic Beast egg, he gained an Empyrean Tusk's power.
A baby was birthed in a woman. It was a result of the condensation of genetics, lifeforce, and resources. For a Pranic Beast or cultivator, Prana too was condensed in the womb.
When Resha was absorbing Gannala's essence, his empty Spirit Container acted as that womb. Eventually, as enough of her lifeforce, Prana, genetics, and resources condensed in it, a life was formed. And this life fused directly with the Spirit Container it formed within.
Orakha was attempting the same this time. And, he planned to die and revive until a life begins to grow in his empty Spirit Container and end up fusing with it. That was the smartest way to obtain a strong power.
After all, within the Transcendent Eater were the powers of an Empyrean Tusk, a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle, and a Transcendent Eater—Gold Grade, Mystic Grade, and Transcendence respectively.
Blola was too stupid to even understand the wealth in his possession, and neither did he have the means to take advantage of it. Hence, through Raaha, Orakha took them upon himself, treating Blola simply as his revival device.
Technically, Orakha couldn't harm Blola. Just because of this one reason, Blola didn't care about whatever Orakha did, blindly listening to whatever Raaha ordered him to do.
When he revived the 21st time, Orakha smiled, having obtained a Nature. By remaining in an extreme situation—doing nothing but die, absorbing information while being revived, and reviving in a loop—for more than a year, Orakha finally obtained a Nature.
Secondary Nature—Daily Checkpoint!
It took him twenty days to revive. And it was currently his 21st revival. Therefore, he had spent more than enough duration in the same situation to end up obtaining a Nature.
Daily Checkpoint was the Iron Empyrean Tentacle's Primary Nature. The power currently was in the Boar King's possession.
Renduldu was originally an Iron Empyrean Tentacle before he evolved into a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle. Therefore, by absorbing enough of his essence, Orakha had obtained this power.
But, there was one absolute law to be noted here. In Sumatra Continent, the Empyrean Tentacle was its blessed race. And the powers of the Empyrean Tentacle could only exist as a single copy.
Raaha had fused with a Gold Empyrean Tentacle, gaining its power of Thought Condensation. Yahard Tusk fused with a Silver Empyrean Tentacle, gaining its power of Prana Solidification. And finally, to prevent the arrival of a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle, the Boar King swallowed an Iron Empyrean Tentacle soon after becoming the Boar King.
Rather, it was his first priority, hence preventing the birth of his strongest competitor. As long as he held onto its power, an Iron Empyrean Tentacle wouldn't be born on Sumatra. As a result, a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle will never appear.
But now that Orakha gained the Iron Empyrean Tentacle's power, there was a clash. In Sumatra's rules, there could only be one of it. As a result, when the rules took effect, they observed the source through which Orakha and the Boar King gained the power.
The Boar King devoured an Iron Empyrean Tentacle while Orakha gained it from Renduldu's essence. Since a Transcendent was involved, Sumatra Continent's cause and effect contacted Renduldu in a Transcendent World, since he was part of its blessed race.
An instant later, the Boar King's howls echoed throughout Varahan Enclave as he lost the Iron Empyrean Tentacle's power.
