I'll Surpass The MC

Running across the surface of the Dralh Sea was the Brangara Puppet. Stored in the place of its heart, emanating a very mild presence similar to the Boar King was a Prana Bomb. It was already running low, since it was very tough to refine Prana to the level where it could mimic the Boar King's quality and presence.

They had a small reserve in the first place and had been distributed among the three puppets meant to distract the Boar King. The first puppet had already been destroyed at the desert island. The one running was the second puppet.

The third puppet was currently hidden within a large boulder on Fral Island. After the second puppet dies, it would come out and start fleeing once the Boar King senses its presence.

All three puppets were human versions of Brangara. The Empyrean Boar King form puppet was tucked away safely in Inala's biome, meant to be used later. Not only was it massive, requiring a lot of resources, but to ensure its massive body emitted the Boar King's presence uniformly, a large quantity of the Boar King's Prana had to be refined, which would take time.

The Brangara puppet was fully encased by Internal Inertial Gravity unleashed by the combined effect of the dozen Empyrean Zingers situated in its lungs. Thanks to this, they were able to run on water without sinking.

They were able to sense the Boar King getting closer, feeling pressured as it was getting more and more difficult to make use of their Secondary Nature. But since the Boar King was being held back by the Empyrean Snappers, he couldn't chase after the Brangara puppet at his top speed.

As a result, the distance between the two reduced slowly. Hours passed in response as the Brangara puppet continued to run at top speed. The Empyrean Zingers within its lungs took turns to control the puppet, constantly maintaining its run.

"Found you!" The Brangara puppet trembled in response as a voracious presence slammed into it from a dozen kilometres away.

The Boar King had arrived!

[Do as planned.]

The Empyrean Zingers communicated with each other as they expended all their Prana to suck in large amounts of air into their lungs after turning them into biomes.

"Took you long enough, big brother." The Brangara puppet flashed a smile and stared in the direction of the Boar King, "I was almost bored to death."

"Stay there and I'll make things interesting for you." The Boar King snapped back in response, unleashing his detection abilities through a shockwave to frown in response, 'What the fuck is wrong with him? That's a fucking waste! Seriously! Goddamn!'

He was losing his mind, sensing eight Internal Inertial Gravity being activated by the familiar figure. He could sense it when eight distinct Prana clusters combined into a powerful gust of air gushing out of the familiar figure's mouth.

'The effect is barely superior to activating one Internal Inertial Gravity! Fuck! That's eight Empyrean Tusk Primary Natures! He's wasting them like this?' The Boar King wanted to smack this idiot to his senses.

It was impossible to properly stack Natures without the help of Astral Chart. When an Empyrean Boar activates the Natures stored in it, the process is akin to breaking the walls of a dam, with the water in it being the Natures.

As the dam walls shatter, water floods out. Similarly, the Natures in an Empyrean Boar flood out in response when it activates them. It was impossible for it to delicately control these Natures as the Boar King does.

That was only possible due to his Secondary Nature of Astral Chart, the prime reason he was a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast. Hence, the Boar King knew that the familiar figure couldn't make use of multiple Internal Inertial Gravity at the same time.

The latter was simply wasting them to flee, 'This is pissing me off!'

The Boar King almost activated an Internal Inertial Gravity to capture the familiar figure faster. But a moment's consideration later, he controlled himself, unwilling to waste such a powerful Nature for anything other than destroying the Mammoth Clan.

A few minutes later, he grabbed the familiar figure and threw him towards a nearby island, grabbing his neck upon lending nearby to ask, "Tell me everything that happened on the other continent."

"Why did you eat our brethren? And how come you possess so many Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity?"

"Are you that curious, big brother?" The familiar figure laughed, "Just consider it as if the Mammoth Clan messed up big time and offended that continent's Mystic Grade Pranic Beast. Rest is history. I simply fished through troubled waters and gained a lot of benefits."

"But," The familiar figure grinned, "Did you know that it has been a day since we last saw each other?"

"You…" The Boar King's eyes widened in realisation as he saw the familiar figure shrink into a grain, "How is this possible?"

The Boar King was confused, 'If he used Voracious Nature to steal the Iron Empyrean Tentacle's power, then it should have vanished when he used it before. But how? How is he able to use it again?'

"Did he somehow figure out a method to turn it into his Nature?" The Boar King frowned in distaste, "Is that even possible?"

The Empyrean Tentacle race was called the blessed race of Sumatra. This wasn't without reason. Therefore, even he, the Boar King, could only take measures to prevent the birth of another Mystic Empyrean Tentacle.

That was why he devoured an Iron Empyrean Tentacle and preserved its Primary Nature. As long as he had it, there was no hope for the birth of a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle.

But strangely, the familiar figure used the Iron Empyrean Tentacle's Primary Nature—Daily Checkpoint—twice. That shouldn't have been possible unless he possessed the Nature as his own.

"He's here!"

"Don't let him escape!"

"Corner him!"

The shouts of Cooter Clansmen resounded as a thunderstorm approached the island he was on, irritating the Boar King who shouted in response, "I'm thinking here, dammit! Be quiet for a freaking second, you bald heads!"

"We'll exact revenge for Wittral!" Geugeu roared in anger while shedding tears as he condensed a powerful bolt of lightning and rained it down on the Boar King. Each of his attacks was on a whole other level.

Even the Boar King couldn't treat them casually. After all, he would truly be injured by them and if he tanked enough of them without any defensive abilities, he would die.

Geugeu wasn't one of the top experts of Sumatra Continent for no reason.

It was why the Boar King actively avoided him, for he would be forced to use a stronger Nature if he decided to confront a maniacal Geugeu.

Astral Chart—Rocky Intimidation!

The Boar King activated the Rockatrice's Primary Nature and erected a stone hill, watching the bolts of lightning slam into it and destroy it. But the lightning was used up in response, allowing the Boar King to avoid coming into contact with it.

He erected a bunch more rock hills and snapped his finger, causing them to release an intimidating wave of Prana. Combined with his twelve-stack Prana Shock, the effect became a radial wave of oppressiveness.

"Keuk!" The Settlement Leaders were unable to move as the waves rapidly slammed into their bodies and caused them to grow weak. Their Prana was unable to circulate in their bodies and even when they activated their Natures, the potency was barely a tenth of the original.

Guaaa!

The Empyrean Snappers screamed in response as even they were affected. Taking a breather upon seeing their plight, the Boar King stared at the grain in his palm and seeped his Prana into it, "Let me see how long you can continue fleeing."

"You can't use Daily Checkpoint more than once a day. So, before it becomes active, I'll find you."
