Chapter 1077: Left Harmony |
Gong!
A pillar of light blast into the sky, hitting the ceiling there before being absorbed by a circuit that manifested itself.
Major Treasure—Weapon!
Having extracted it from his body, Inala remained in the centre of the stadium, standing before the Major Treasure of Weapon. He stared at the pillar of light being ejected into the sky. While interacting with the air, it was steadily creating a sea of psychokinesis.
Since it was pure psychokinesis, Prana Circuit could easily gain control over it. At first, Inala observed the Prana Circuit in action, ’It’s exceedingly complex that I don’t even know where to start.’
It would take him a long time to understand every single circuit that had been built into the world of Halmahera. Inala received an Information Slip containing the basics of Prana Circuits, which would help him better understand the logic and formulae used to develop it.
The Brimgan Founder was exceptionally talented in his usage of Prana Circuits. The long-standing Brimgan Empire was a prime example, as without his actions, the region enveloped by the Lotus Range would have been inhabitable.
Phew!
This was the most compatible with the Major Treasure of Weapon, since its source, Kanka, had a Billakin Human Avatar.
As his hand touched the pillar of light, a sizzling sound resounded as the circuits began to explode. They weren’t able to keep up with the influence behind the pillar of light. However, as the circuits exploded, there was a constant flash in the arm.
From Billakin to Vachra, and vice versa, it kept changing. The left hand had Vachra while the right had Billakin. Inala constantly swapped the places of the two minerals across his arms while keeping his right in the pillar of light.
"All along, I’ve been approaching this wrong," Inala said as he kept updating the Prana Circuit on his arm every time it turned into Vachra, "I was trying to lay down a foundation, build the floors, and wrap up the building."
Standing forty metres behind him were the Minor Treasures of Kinesis Deity number one and two. Inala addressed them, "However, the Brully Race starts with the build and merely explores the foundation and floors leisurely."
Secondary Nature—Weapon Hands!
With it, Inala could touch any mineral and turn it into a Spirit Weapon. From there, he simply needs to reverse-deduce the cultivation technique associated with the mineral. This was the easiest, since the product of the cultivation technique was already available.
Creating a cultivation technique from scratch was infinitely harder.
Even now, the only original Mystic Grade cultivation techniques are Mystic Bone Art, Mystic Mist Art, and Mystic Kinesis Art.
Mystic Royal Art, Mystic Nature Art, and Mystic Sumatra Art were derivatives based on the above three Natures, focusing on aspects already present in the source Natures. Creating a cultivation technique was still exceedingly hard, irrespective of the manpower and resources involved.
Spirit Smith creates a Spirit Weapon out of a mineral. Spirit Refiner elevates the respective mineral to its peak possible state. And finally, Spirit Avatar creates a Human Avatar out of the same.
With the natural mineral growing in its heart, the Brully was capable of completing a Free Human’s build. After all, something can be called a Human Avatar only when the Nature associated with the mineral is present in it.
Therefore, Inala didn’t have to beat his head in trying to create the means to generate a Tertiary Nature in a mineral, and similarly, obtain his Soul Path Tertiary Nature. "There isn’t enough time to go through the traditional path."
"Yeah, there isn’t." The golden humanoid number one nodded, "The Transcendent Plane will reveal itself in less than two days."
He stared at the grey tower above Inala while wearing the special pair of specs, ’It seems when the Royal Zinger went out of Sumatra, it managed to figure out the time when the first wave of invaders will set foot on our Continent.’
If the Seat of Transcendence were to reveal itself according to its original schedule, the invaders would become participants too. ’And since we can’t have it, the Royal Zinger brought the schedule as far forward as necessary, so that only Sumatra’s natives are the participants.’
"Exactly," Inala nodded, unawares of the golden humanoid’s thoughts, "So, I intend to take a shortcut too."
"So," He turned around and stared at the golden humanoid number one, "Where is it?"
"Almost here," The golden humanoid number two was the one to reply, "It’s on the way. We had to take a lot of precautions to ensure the Brimgan Empire doesn’t discover our actions."
A few minutes later, barging into the world of Halmahera, covered in a cocoon of psychokinesis, belonging to the Influenced Region of Armoury, was a Major Treasure.
Major Treasure—Deity!
In the Influenced Region of Golden Giant, indiscernible circuit lines covered it from head to toe. Currently, they had congregated in its heart to form a lump. This lump was a cocoon created using Armoury.
And somehow stored within it was influence from the Major Treasure of Deity. It was a temporary measure to ensure the Major Treasure of Deity’s function within the Golden Giant doesn’t stop.
After all, Boul Brimgan was seated in the stomach. He would know something is amiss immediately, if there’s even a single fluctuation.
"You have time until that cocoon exists. We’ll have to return the Major Treasure of Deity before that." The golden humanoid number two explained.
"That is plenty enough," Inala expressed in utmost confidence as he grabbed the Celestial Boar’s Vara. Upon contact, he activated his Secondary Nature and watched his arm turn into a Vara Spirit Weapon.
"Give it to me." Inala demanded the golden humanoid number one, who expressionlessly tossed him a Mystic Grade mineral. It had a subtle golden gloss, dull at times and transparent at others.
Sumatra Gold!
Inala grabbed it with his Vara arm and activated his Secondary Nature at full strength, "Pu...hahahaha!"
"Man..." He closed his eyes at the ridiculousness of the situation and stared at the two golden humanoids, "Do you know...? The first time I tried to make Sumatra Gold mine, I was insane for a decade."
"And even that was only possible thanks to a Mudropper’s assistance. Otherwise, it would have taken me who knows how long to integrate it properly. But now..." He smiled self-deprecatingly and raised his arm that oozed a Mystic Grade presence now, resembling the Celestial Boar, "It’s almost too easy."
He observed his right hand and nodded, "I can feel it. The effect of that ridiculously overpowered Nature now resides in my hand."
Primary Nature—Voracious Cultivator!
Without the usage of Sumatra Gold, it was impossible to harness the true potency of the Celestial Boar’s Vara. Only the effects of the Nature of Blessed Inheritance would reside in it.
However, using Sumatra Gold, Inala drew out its core essence, enhanced it, stabilised it, and turned it realistic. And that’s how he obtained the power of Voracious Nature. However,
"He...hehehehe...I’m Hungry...!" His mouth curled up spontaneously as his eyes were glazing over, "I...I need to eat...an Empyrean Tusk would be perfect...Oh, I know where to find one...!"
Primary Nature—Cyclic Stability!
"...Shit!" Only when his active organ set switched did he come to his senses. But immediately after, his second set too was overwhelmed, causing his Primary Nature to automatically switch to the third set, ’I’m losing myself fast!’
Expert Mystic Grade Pranic Beast—Celestial Boar!
An existence that hadn’t reached its limit despite hitting Mystic Grade status. Through personal experience, Inala understood how ridiculously powerful the Celestial Boar was. However, that experience was accumulated as the Royal Zinger.
Every time the Royal Zinger faced the Celestial Boar, it was at the Mystic Grade. And therefore, even Inala had underestimated the ridiculous levels of influence generated by the Celestial Boar’s Vara.
Using Sumatra Gold, he pulled out its actual essence and obtained the effect of the Celestial Boar’s Primary Nature. And that influence overpowered his mind, which had been boosted by the Brully physique.
His internal organ set was constantly changing, without having enough time for the resting set to fully recover. ’At most a few minutes, and I’ll go past the point of no return.’
It was that dangerous!
"Do it, now!" The golden humanoid number two shouted in a hurry. In response, golden flashes covered the sky and surged into Inala’s mouth.
A mixture of Parute Fruits to increase Prana and Brully flesh, sourced from Inala himself, was poured down his throat. The moment the mixture entered the stomach, it was spontaneously digested.
The influence from Voracious Nature had caused his stomach to go into overdrive, beginning rapid digestion. From his ass, a compressed pellet of shit was ejected out like a cannonball. A golden flash smoothly captured it and carried it away.
Mystic Sumatra Art worked at full swing, imprinting the Prana influenced by Voracious Cultivator into the blood flowing through the right hand.
This blood then flowed into the left hand, which had become a Rutham Spirit Weapon.
Primary Nature—Kinesis Deity!
Mystic Sumatra Art imprinted the effects of Voracious Cultivator—from the blood flowing into the left hand—into the Prana refining the Rutham.
"AARGH! I’m HUNGRY!" Inala roared and turned around, intending to rush in the direction of the Sanrey Plains, where he knew an Empyrean Tusk resided, "I’ll eat...her...it! Food! Empyrean Tusk Food! I’m Hungry! Hungry! HUNGRY!"
"FOOD! FOOOD! FOOOOD!" Every passing second, the switching organ set was being more and more overwhelmed, causing his sanity to drip off at exponential levels.
"A little more, Leukeu!" The golden humanoid number one shouted and slammed a Sumatra Gold into the left hand after a count, "The imprint is at the perfect level. Now, absorb it!"
The Sumatra Gold stabilised the imprint of Voracious Cultivator in the Rutham left hand, and quickly elevated its presence as a voracious amount of Prana gathered in it.
In terms of presence, it was climbing sharply, as if Inala was at the 2-Life Stage, then 3-Life Stage, so on.
In reality, it was only the influence and imprint created by Voracious Cultivator. Thankfully, that created the necessary effect. As soon as the influence reached a level where it was as if Inala’s Prana had the same effect as being at the 10-Life Stage, the Rutham left hand was changing.
Boom!
There was a powerful expulsion in presence as a mystical power gathered in it, which only served to push Inala into borderline insanity.
Secondary Nature—Minor Treasure!
Right upon its arrival, nine golden humanoids gathered around the Rutham left hand and seeped their presence inside, in an effort to fool Inala’s Prana into thinking his Rutham left had already created ten Minor Treasures.
In truth, only one was created, which was enough. Any more, and that would only disrupt the intended objective.
"Get in!" The golden humanoid number one activated the Prana Circuit of Halmahera and pushed the Major Treasure of Deity into Inala.
"Quick!" The golden humanoid number two said as he plunged his hand into Inala’s chest and activated Mystic Sumatra Art through the latter’s heart. Inala wasn’t in a state to maintain it anymore, so he had taken action.
The influence from the Major Treasure of Deity had already been gathered by Halmahera for a while within the Golden Deity, in preparation for now.
The golden humanoid number one used Halmahera’s Prana Circuit to push it into Inala, boosting the Major Treasure of Deity’s functions, as spontaneously, the effect of another Nature appeared in the Rutham left.
Tertiary Nature—Deity Fusion!
"Last step!" The golden humanoid number one was the only one who could do this step, as being the oldest and most experienced at Halmahera. He was also the one in charge of researching Boul Brimgan’s build the most.
And hence, he used Halmahera’s Prana Circuit to control the Influenced Region of Armoury being generated by the Major Treasure of Weapon, and employed it to control the piece of Sumatra Gold in Inala’s Rutham left.
He used it to forcefully stabilise everything and harmonise it. The moment he did that, he bellowed, "Cut it!"
Boom!
A golden humanoid severed Inala’s Vara right and flew away, exploding in the distance as the sheer presence radiating off it was overwhelming. A group of golden flashes converged upon it to swiftly seal it using Prana Circuit and controlled the explosive radius, containing the Vara right.
"Hah..." Inala barely regained momentary clarity as he stared at the severed stump on his right. With a strained gaze, he stared at his left, and uttered upon seeing the powerful radiance being emitted from the arm, "Never again...do I want to go through that."
And then, he fainted. Catching him midfall, the golden humanoid revealed a trace of pride, "Rest well, Leukeu."
"You’ve brought forward Sumatra’s development by a few dozen eras at the very least."
His left hand, evidently connected to Secondary Nature, no longer just turned into a Spirit Weapon, not just a Spirit Weapon with one, two, or even three Natures. But rather, a Spirit Weapon with effects from three Natures in harmony. That was its default state now.
Minor Treasure—Left Harmony!
