Chapter 806: EBK Vs EBK
Boom!
Barla punched virala on the face as her fists dented the latter's skull. But she wasn't done with it as another spike in Prana erupted from her being.
Astral Chart-Prana Shock x8!
Pulses of Prana erupted out of her elbow and thrust her hand forward, raising the force of her punch. Moreover, right upon the impact, another shockwave rippled out of her clenched fist as the Prana Shock rattled Virala's insides, disorienting him for a moment.
Kaboom!
Blood spurted out as Barla rained down a series of punches. However, a second later, her figure was sent flying as Virala casually got up, having switched to another body. With a tug of his psychokinesis, all his spilt blood crawled back into his body.
As if he was eating noodles, Virala slurped his blood and focused internally for a moment, focusing on the body that had taken a beating, 'I need around ten seconds to heal from that level of damage, four if I truly hasten it through psychokinesis. Damn, she packs a punch!'
Grrr!
Barla clenched her teeth until they cracked, expressing her intention to clobber Virala, "You'll die by my hands!"
"I'm still alive and kicking, my child." Virala spoke with a stark contrast of casualness that only served to further ignite Barla's hatred. He had barely finished his statement when he was kicked to the wall once again.
"Die!" Barla screeched as she kneeled Virala in the face, causing another fountain of blood to spurt out of the latter. With a twirl in the air, she kicked his head, intending to decapitate it. However, a layer of Tratham armour appeared between the two and shattered, having absorbed most of the power behind the kick.
Raising his hand, Virala grabbed Barla's foot and spun around, "You fight well!"
"BUT NOT WELL ENOUGH!" He spun like a spinning top while flailing Barla's body, accurately slamming her face into the wall of the Attributed Region cube repeatedly, rhythmically grinding her face against the wall.
Astral Chart-Bloody Affection X2!
"Urgh!" Barla grunted as she was unable to absorb Virala's blood as the rate at which her face was being slammed into the wall spiked. She wanted to split herself and target Virala from the back. However, that was dangerous.
Anyone with Astral Chart had a danger of their split bodies veering off to become an entirely different existence due to the accumulation difference between the influences. So, even while in a state of extreme anger, she understood that splitting her body now would only result in her possibly adding another opponent to worry about.
'But if I cannot absorb your blood, that doesn't mean I'm out of ideas!' The power of Prana Shock gathered in her hands as Barla made a slicing motion, unleashing a shockwave- propelled blade of blood that slammed into Virala and sent him skidding back.
She severed her knees and used the chance to break free. By the time she landed, her leg bones had already formed. Three seconds later, her legs were as good as new.
"Phew!" Barla calmed down for a moment and exhaled softly. Following that, she took a step forward, riling up her Prana as her presence continued to build up.
'Has she stabilised enough to use it already?' Virala was genuinely surprised by the presence buildup as he quickly masked his emotions.
Barla started with a series of steps before she bolted into a sprint, roaring as she assumed Pranic Beast form to rush at Virala.
"Round two!" Followed by a high-pitched cackle, Virala assumed Empyrean Boar King form and charged into Barla. The two Empyrean Boar Kings slammed into each other, resulting in a thunderous eruption as the two entities skid back by a few dozen metres.
Their noses had dented and their tusks had shattered from the impact. But Prana gathered in the region and regenerated them faster than in their human forms. Two seconds later, the two rushed into each other once again.
Kaboom!
As the two entities, each spanning a monstrous height of 200 metres repeatedly crashed into each other. Barla was at the 10-Life Stage and had the initial upper hand in sheer power after being assisted by her Natures.
However, Virala was not only more experienced in using the Empyrean Boar King body, having even used it to fight the Celestial Boar, but he was also harnessing all the power of psychokinesis to reinforce his body while using the force of his Tratham Armour to slam shockwaves into Barla.
The shockwaves following each impact were powerful, however they were only akin to thunder at the start. However, as they crashed repeatedly, the power behind their attacks increased steadily, eventually reaching a point where they could cause ripples to form on the Attributed Region cube.
"That's...pretty darn insane." Standing right outside the cube was Blola, pleasantly surprised, "How is the Empyrean Boar King this strong? The amount of power Barla is erupting with has already surpassed what Brangara unleashed during the First Major Disaster. He was using two Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity back then."
"For two millennia, all Brangara did was hunt creatures weaker than him. So, there was never a need for him to go all out." Resha commented from the side, "He never had to push himself until the moment when he had to fight the Attributed Creatures during the Second Major Disaster. So, he was never aware of his limits."
"But here..." Resha let out a mild sigh, "Virala is facing her on equal grounds. So, Barla is quickly adjusting to the evenly matched fight and exploring the limits of what the Empyrean Boar King is capable of."
"It'll be funny if he's to be defeated here." Blola chuckled, "I want to see that."
"That won't happen." Inala landed between the duo and commented as he watched the fight, "Virala is holding back. He's only using enough power to threaten her, but not enough to kill her. And he's fighting in a way that allows Barla to learn."
"Look," He pointed at the latest crash where Virala suddenly assumed human form, skid on the floor, and assumed Empyrean Boar King form right as he was underneath Barla. The expansion resulting from his transformation sent Barla's Empyrean Boar King form crashing into the ceiling. And two exchanges later, Barla did the same to Virala, "She's rapidly absorbing all his techniques and is becoming increasingly dangerous."
"Wouldn't it be dangerous to allow her to grow freely like this?" Blola expressed her worry, "We don't want another Empyrean Boar King chasing after our asses."
"Even I feel this is cruel, Inala." Resha let out a mild sigh as he stared at Inala, "Are you sure you want to go through with this?"
"You weren't any less tame when you twisted the bodies of Yaha and Hara before Brangara's eyes." Inala raised an eyebrow, "What? Are you getting cold feet?"
"No, I merely told that to see if I had any hesitations." Resha stared at the fight as his eyes widened slowly, "Turns out, I don't, not in the slightest."
"You have my full support, Inala." Resha said, his eyes gradually turning red, "I want Brangara to suffer the utmost before I kill him."
Considering Orakha's state, and the fact that Sumatra's Transcendent Eater was supporting Yamahara, it wasn't hard to put two and two together to know that Brangara had pretty much killed and consumed the Mammoth Clan.
The sole Empyrean Tusks that were alive were Gannala and Harrala. Moreover...
"He confirmed, right? That Torq guy, I mean." Veins popped on his forehead as Resha steadily seethed while remaining not budging an inch from his spot.
"He...did." Inala let out a sigh, "I have no means to confirm his words. But he did say they have been consumed."
"All of them?" Resha asked, "Even Wrunnala?"
"...Yes." Inala nodded, knowing very well why Resha was more concerned about Wrunnala.
The 10th Empyrean Tusk was Yahira's home. If a Mammoth Clansman were to be away from their Deity for too long, they'd go insane, so Resha left Yahira in her home after he had given her the power of the Empyrean Thunder and all the information he had about her gains from
Sumatra Chronicles.
He wanted her to develop herself while in safety while he focused on eradicating the Mammoth Clan's influence on him through the Major Treasure of Cure. However, things had changed beyond his expectations.
He didn't even know where or how his beloved had died. Soundless, helpless, like how he was killed at the end of Sumatra Chronicles. Or maybe she cried for his help, but he was nowhere
within earshot.
"I will clobber that bastard!" Resha uttered slowly.
"What if Yarsha Zahara were to jump between the two of you when you're about to deliver the final blow on Brangara?" Inala watched the fight between Barla and Virala as he asked.
"It's unfortunate that I'll have to use two final blows," Resha raised his fist slowly, "I'm clear
about my objective. And I believe there's more than enough hatred between me and Yarsha for
neither side to hesitate to go in for the kill."
"Don't hesitate at the final moment, alright?" Inala mocked.
"So long as you keep your brat away from me, I won't." Resha retorted.
"Why are you silent?" Blola turned around and stared at the figure of Boul Brimgan seated a
hundred metres away, silently watching the fight.
"I am comparing to see how well I'll fare against either of them." Boul Brimgan stated while
focused on the battle.
"So?" Blola asked, "How do you think you'll fare?"
"128 seconds..." Boul Brimgan muttered, "That's how long I need to kill Barla ten times."
"As for him..." He trailed off while observing Virala, "Probably around four years. I'll have to double the required time for every additional body he adds to his Life Stage stack."
"Once he reaches the 10-Life Stage, it'll be a matter of who gets bored first and decides death
is a better outcome." He concluded.
With a range of 180 kilometres, if Boul Brimgan wanted to, he could always remain on the run
using his Kinesis Felines while targeting Virala from afar. Of course, Virala could quickly consume Pranic Beasts, recover his strength, and barge into Boul Brimgan's Spirit Weapon range with his Autonomous Puppets produced using his skill of Spirit Puppet Slip.
And when the timing was right, he could penetrate Boul Brimgan's Spirit Weapon range at hypersonic speeds upon assuming Empyrean Boar King form. And to evade, he could instantly drill into the ground using his Mystic Ewworm form to avoid detection and close the gap
between the two.
"If we were to fight within it and don't use our powers to try and break out..." Boul Brimgan eyed the Attributed Region cube, "I'll win."
Even though he was replying to Blola, his eyes didn't waver from the fight, for the figures of
Barla and Virala were a blur now, rapidly switching between human and Empyrean Boar King forms to exchange dozens of attacks every second.
The walls of the Attributed Region cube were rippling pretty fiercely now. Even though the
end goal was to feed Barla to Blola so that he could constantly revive the Empyrean Boar King
to face Brangara, there were two prior objectives to be achieved, which was why Virala was facing her alone.
The first objective was to train Barla so that she could fully wield her power as the Empyrean Boar King and become capable of harming the Celestial Boar. The second objective was to make her hate Brangara, which was why Virala fought while assuming Brangara's appearance.
Fuelled by her hatred, as she constantly kept attacking her most hated enemy-Virala-who had assumed Brangara's appearance, it was just a matter of time before her mind synonymously correlated the appearance of Brangara to her hatred.
Eventually, she'll be unable to tell the two apart and harness the same hatred against
Brangara. Of course, it would take some time before that was done. Moreover, as Barla
continued to grow stronger, she would eventually reach a level where Virala would have to take her seriously and use all his might.
That meant Virala too could go all out and gather more experience under his belt, which was
valuable for the upcoming fight.
"Inala," Resha muttered as he stared at Inala, "I'm sure watching alone is boring."
"Are you sure?" Inala got up and cracked his knuckles, "I'll be using everything other than the
trump card I prepared for Brangara."
"That's what I want too." Resha clenched his hand into a fist, "Go all out against me, and if you can, try to defeat me."
"Alright," Inala threw a Biome Bomb with force into the sky, watching it travel five kilometres every second. His figure vanished simultaneously as the Biome Bomb condensed a
terrain of vines that spun like a helicopter and assumed a state of flight. He appeared next to it and waited patiently until the Biome Bomb travelled to a height of eighty kilometres.
'Though we're fighting, he's giving me some preparation time, since I'm more of a ranged
unit.' Inala walked out of the Biome Bomb and hovered in the sky. He grabbed an orb that was
stuck on his back and transformed the Bolt of Transcendence within into the Attributed
Region.
[My attack will arrive two seconds after you hear this message!]
He unleashed a Tangible Piezo Slip and aimed it at Resha, calculating its time of arrival based
on its speed. With that, he poised himself.
Tertiary Nature-Prana Stitch!
Prana Stitch-Accel Growth!
He first stitched Zhya's Secondary Nature of Accel Growth into the Biome Bomb, increasing its
radius from 1800 metres to 2700 metres. Following that, he stitched 16 such Biome Bombs into a singular stitched Biome Bomb, one fully filled with the Attributed Region.
Prana Stitch-Homing Satellite!
With that, he marked Resha as the target, ensuring it could chase after the latter without
missing even if Resha moves away at a rapid speed. Of course, that wasn't the end.
He assumed his Royal Zinger form as strings of Prana jutted out of his eight arms and knitted
them. Bones, muscles, blood vessels, etc. everything was knitted structurally from the ground
up until there was just a single pair of arms.
It was rippling with strength as eight arms had been condensed into two, allowing Inala to
assume his strongest physical state as the Royal Zinger, "Now, to add the final touch."
Prana Stitch-Accel Hurl!
"Take it, Resha!" He grunted and threw the Biome Bomb towards the ground, watching it
expand to its real size once it attained terminal velocity. A gigantic Attributed Region meteor
descended from the skies.
However, a moment later, Inala's eyes twitched as the Attributed Region transformed into a Bolt of Transcendence and flew into his possession. His skin prickled fiercely as he stared at
Resha who now hovered in the sky beside him, "Seriously?"
"You're not going to erase your ally, right?" Resha chuckled cheekily.
"Face my attack like a man!" Inala grumbled, expressing the headache he was feeling, "I
was..."
"I'll face it the next time." Resha raised his hand and pointed at the Attributed Region cube,
"I just stopped you because your attack would have killed Virala and Barla."
"And look!" Resha pointed at Boul Brimgan, "That guy attached his Kinesis Felines onto
Blola just so that they could have endless Prana to bombard your attack with."
"Ah...sorry," Inala scratched his head, "I was excited to show off."
"I wanted to make an impression before I left for good."
