I'll Surpass The MC-Novel

Chapter 82 Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Natures

Beginner Silver Grade Pranic Beast—Empyrean Zinger!

That was what Inala had become, a mutated variety of Zinger Royalty. Yes, royalty. His powers weren't limited to a Zinger Queen alone, for that would make him a swarm type with zero individual battle power.

His plans were consistent and after repeated refinement with Gannala's input, he pretty much obtained more than what he initially set out to achieve. The results spoke for themselves.

Primary Nature—Royalty!

Secondary Nature—Internal Inertial Gravity!

Tertiary Nature—Spatial Immune System!

He had read Sumatra Chronicles and was aware of the means to obtain a Nature. Fusing with a Pranic Beast would net a Primary Nature. But if the cultivator fused with a Mutated Pranic Beast, then they would also obtain a Secondary Nature.

And by subjecting themselves to an extreme environment, they could even obtain a Tertiary Nature. It was as simple as that only because he was aware of a lot of rules thanks to the omniscient perspective a reader experienced when reading a book.

He was aware of a lot of rules that the natives didn't even know existed. The result was him attaining all three Natures just as he entered the Body Stage.

Inala's three Natures had a synergetic effect on each other. Individually, the three Natures were strong, but that's it. They wouldn't give anyone an edge over others. But when combined, Inala even had the confidence to face the Boar King.

Of course, not at present. When he attains peak cultivation and has enough time to prepare, he'll be at a level necessary to wound the Boar King.

The Primary Nature of Royalty was as its name indicated. It contained traits of Zinger Royalty—King and Queen Zingers.

It was this trait that added the monicker of Empyrean to the name of his mutated version, increasing the Grade from Iron to Silver. It allowed Inala to transform into two forms: Empyrean Zinger King and Empyrean Zinger Queen!

By transforming into an Empyrean Zinger King, he'll have a robust body and could also use Prana Bombs. And when he became an Empyrean Zinger Queen, he could create Life Bombs, which was what he used against the Zinger King.

And as the absorbed lifeforce was from an Iron Grade Pranic Beast, the egg wouldn't form a queen. Thereby, when Inala consumed its contents, he absorbed the lifeforce stored in it, growing younger in response.

Creating a Life Egg consumed a decade's worth of lifespan, so they had to be used judiciously. Well, as long as he had enough prey, he could spam them.

This was the Primary Nature of Royalty's effect when he was an Empyrean Zinger. But when he activated it in his human form, he could change genders as a human, possessing both male and female versions.

This had a significant advantage—deception.

As a Mammoth Clansman, Inala would operate with his male identity. But for anything else, he'll use his female identity, thereby able to perform a lot of activities in secret.

Even if an identity becomes problematic, he could take refuge using the other identity in plain sight. By overcoming the gender restriction, Inala obtained an ability that allowed him to fluidly change his genders.

The change was fundamental, down to a genetic level. He could even give birth in his woman form. Of course, he had no intentions to do anything like that.

Following that was the Secondary Nature of Internal Inertial Gravity. This needn't be explained, for it was the Primary Nature of an Empyrean Tusk. This elevated his abilities to a whole other level. A casual Prana Bomb he chucks would possess weight in the hundreds of kilograms as long as he used his Secondary Nature to raise its density.

Now that he was no longer affected by the Fragment Disease, his body was robust and wouldn't collapse upon physical exertion like before. This was the reason that made the Zinger King helpless. As it lost its lifeforce, the three eggs on its body weighed it down, preventing it from getting up and regaining balance.

It was anchored to the ground and helplessly lost its life. Finally, there was the Tertiary Nature, his card to face the Boar King in the future.

The hole in the ceiling covered by a layer of mud shattered as two Zinger Scouts burst through, landing in the living room. Right as they entered, two Life Bombs slammed into them heavily. As their weight surpassed a hundred kilograms each, they packed a punch, shattering the bones of the two Zingers upon impact.

The two Zinger Scouts couldn't even let out a shriek as their necks were twisted by the attack. As they lay sprawled atop the Zinger King's corpse, the two eggs absorbed their Prana and hatched. Two baby Empyrean Zinger scouts walked out as they let out weak chirps.

They were hungry, gobbling the Zinger Scouts' flesh and blood. By the time they were full, their bodies had slightly grown in size.

Inala seeped his Prana into the two Empyrean Zinger Scouts, causing them to curl up and shrink in size, becoming nail-sized. He pocketed them, feeling a faint stream of Prana surge out of his body and seep into them, maintaining their well-being.

This was the Tertiary Nature of Spatial Immune System. It was his version of a Mammoth Clan.

A Zinger Queen didn't control the Zingers it birthed. All Zingers protected and obeyed it only for a transactional purpose, because only the eggs she created allowed them to increase their numbers and expand their colonies.

In contrast, as an Empyrean Zinger Queen, the eggs Inala creates would hatch into Empyrean Zingers that treat him no different to how Mammoth Clansmen treated an Empyrean Tusk—with Respect, Devotion, and Pride.

The Empyrean Zingers would become an army that charged at his command. Moreover, the Tertiary Nature allowed him to shrink their bodies and store them in his pocket. Of course, maintaining an army of them was a resource-intensive process. But he had plans geared in place for that.

Only the Life Bombs needing to birth a queen required him to use his lifespan. To birth normal Empyrean Zingers, he consumed the same amount of Prana as a Prana Bomb.

Of course, only the fluid within an unhatched Empyrean Zinger Queen egg would grant him lifespan upon consumption.

Using the Mystic Bone Art, Inala refined four eggs in total, transforming them into hands for his Puppetry Skill.

He named the hand refined through an Empyrean Zinger Queen egg as Life Hand. The hand refined using the Empyrean Zinger King's Prana Bomb was called Prana Hand. Two Life Hands and two Prana Hands, for a total of four, the limit of Spirit Weapons he could control through his Puppetry Skill.

'Let's see their effectiveness.' Thinking as such, Inala made a Life Hand touch one of the Zinger Scouts, watching it writhe in pain for a couple of seconds before dying. In response to the touch, a faint stream of lifeforce entered his body, adding to his lifespan, turning him a tad younger.

"The efficiency is barely a quarter as compared to its egg form, but it's easier to use this way," Inala muttered as he leaped to the side and rolled on the floor, watching two Prana Bombs slam into the floor.

An army of Zingers began to bombard his house.
