Weaponisation was a complex power to use, since it required the user to satisfy a lot of conditions before their Prana could influence the target and transform them into a Nature Weapon.
Ever since Inala became the Royal Zinger and left the Mammoth Clan, though Gannala was angry about the fact, she could also perceive the logical reason behind his actions. Hence, instead of passively going about with life, she decided to become an active player.
For that, she had to take control of the Mammoth Clan completely. Only then will they move in accordance with her will and survive against the Celestial Boar's onslaught. Without her taking the helm, the Mammoth Clan's annihilation was guaranteed.
But to be the Mammoth Clan Chief, she needed to satisfy some conditions. Being able to converse with the Mammoth Ancestor was one of them. For that, she should be able to access the fourth phase of Mystic Bone Art, which she could do, thanks to accessing Inala's memories of the same.
With that as a catalyst, Gannala unlocked the fourth phase even before attaining maturity, allowing her to communicate with the Mammoth Ancestor if necessary.
Mystic Bone Art was created based on the Empyrean Tusks. In essence, all Empyrean Tusks were able to use it fully, though it wasn't necessary for them. But they weren't able to communicate with the Mammoth Ancestor.
Only after unlocking the fourth phase did Gannala understand the reason the other Empyrean Tusks weren't able to communicate with the Mammoth Ancestor. It was because the Mammoth Ancestor wasn't an Empyrean Tusk but a Mammoth Clansman.
By essence, she was a Clansman. So, only Mammoth Clansmen who had unlocked the fourth phase were able to communicate with her. Generally, only after a Mammoth Clansman reaches the 10-Life Stage would the fourth phase become unlocked naturally.
To unlock it earlier, they'd have to use methods similar to Resha or Inala.
Thanks to the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator, Gannala was both a Pranic Beast and a Mammoth Clansman. Hence, she could communicate with the Mammoth Ancestor.
Second was strength. Gannala was strong, but she wasn't yet at a level capable of challenging Raaha. Hence, she made a plan regarding it. Through Orakha, she'll neutralise Raaha's power. Once Raaha becomes powerless, her authority will naturally increase, since she's able to communicate with the Mammoth Ancestor.

Her immune system was already the strongest in the Mammoth Clan. Ganala herself wasn't planning to stay still either. She intended to reach the 2-Life Stage as soon as possible, which was why she arrived at the Zahara Kingdom on her own.
The Wean Clansmen were all at the Gold Grade, having a maturity ranging between two to eight years depending on the concentration of their Empyrean Boar gene. The higher the concentration, the closer their maturity speed resembled an Empyrean Boar's.
The Supreme Tusk Gannala was born through Brangara's blood as he consumed his entire race of Empyrean Boars. They had an ill-fated relationship.
Brangara became the Empyrean Boar King after consuming a lot of Mammoth Clansman. Similarly, the Supreme Tusk Gannala came about by consuming Empyrean Boars.
Both had evolved after consuming each other. Therefore, as the Supreme Tusk's successor, Gannala was able to mature faster by consuming Empyrean Boars, similar to how Brangara matured by consuming Empyrean Tusks.
As long as she consumed the body of a Gold Grade Pranic Beast, Gannala would mature a bit faster, but the efficiency paled in comparison to consuming an Empyrean Boar. The case was the same for Brangara too.
It was why she was here. Gannala awaited the day when the population of the Wean Clan reached a certain number before she could partake in her feast. That way, she'll progress through the Life Stage.
And the power that gave her the confidence to enact such a plan was the Mammoth Ancestor's inheritances.
Throughout her life, Mahira Tusk fought against the Mudropper Race's repeated invasions. During her fight, she created Weaponisation and formulated various means to effectively use it.
In battle, it was tough to satisfy hundreds of conditions. As a result, she ended up creating the Dance of Annihilation, a means through which she could influence the target's Prana until they become Nature Weapons.
After obtaining the Dance of Annihilation, Gannala spent her time researching the ability. With a Mystic Grade Nature of Weaponisation, her foundation surpassed Mahira Tusk, allowing her to glean the truth faster.
Weaponisation was an ability that Mahira Tusk derived from Internal Inertial Gravity. Yes, it was originally a Prime Skill developed by her that employed Internal Inertial Gravity which eventually grew in influence and ended up giving her a mutation, becoming her Secondary Nature.
Weaponisation, in essence, was to trap the target in a biome by connecting the target's body, mind, and soul with the biome itself. This biome became the Nature Weapon.
The hardest part was to link the target's body, mind, and soul to the biome. Basically, their Prana must circulate between the body and the biome. Furthermore, the biome's influence should keep the target's Primary Nature active.
It was unknown how Mahira Tusk managed to do this manually until the biome turned into a Nature Weapon. Even though Gannala understood the process, she was unable to replicate it at the moment.
But she did understand why Weaponisation was unable to affect targets with more than one Nature. It's because linking their body to the biome—Nature Weapon—was impossible, as there were two or more influences in their body.
The link was a bridge between the influence of Internal Inertial Gravity and Mystic Bone Art contained in the biome and the influence generated in the target body through their Primary Nature. Through this link, the biome's influence flowed into the target and affected the influence in their body, through which their power was harnessed.
A streamlined flow was attained to achieve the power of a Nature Weapon. But with two or more influences, there would only be turbulence, making it impossible for the biome's influence to form a link.
Mahira Tusk's action of creating Weaponisation won Gannala's respect. And the more she researched into it, the greater her admiration increased towards the Mammoth Ancestor.
Mahira Tusk waged her final battle at Karuta Hill in the Brimgan Empire, where the last of the Mudropper Race severed her tusk. She left her destructive influence in this tusk, symbolising her desire to kill all her enemies.
That was the Dance of Annihilation.
Conversely, her birthplace, the Gaja Enclave, was one of the first regions to be destroyed by the Mudroppers and made a part of the Sandy Grey Void. In her desire to reclaim her home, Mahira Tusk developed her second power, which was the Dance of Restoration.
The Dance of Annihilation allows her to transform her target into a Nature Weapon from afar. Upon equipping the Nature Weapon, she then uses the Dance of Recovery to heal the region from the effects unleashed by the target.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Gaja Enclave was turned into the Sandy-Grey Void by the Mudroppers. After equipping a Mudropper's Nature Weapon in her Tertiary Nature slot, Mahira Tusk used the Dance of Recovery to recover Gaja Enclave, erasing the Sandy Grey Void that was there.
But of course, by the time she managed to create the Dance of Recovery, too much time had passed, which was why the Gaja Enclave failed to return to its original condition. To date, it remained a barren region where only a small population of Iron Grade Pranic Beasts could survive.
Back in the day, it was where the predecessors of the Empyrean Tusks lived in large numbers.
The more Gannala researched the Dance of Annihilation, the more she understood Mahira Tusk's thoughts. It was why she became assured that Mahira Tusk had left behind another inheritance at the Gaja Enclave, the birthplace of the Mammoth Clan.
After venturing out alone, Gannala arrived at the Gaja Enclave and inherited the Dance of Recovery. Following that, she entered the Zahara Kingdom.
The Mammoth Clan currently had settled in a place underneath a forest near the Brimgan Empire—which was home to the Enrinos.
They had erased all traces to ensure no one would have any information about the Mammoth Clan's actions. They had positioned themselves in an abundant region in the blessed land and were relying upon Blola to obtain as much resources as they needed.
Using that, they were stealthily developing, focusing on raising their Bone Viper population and also working on nurturing Mammoth Clansmen with Gold Grade strength. In human forms, the Empyrean Tusks didn't need much resources to upkeep their functions.
Hence, they could afford to nurture Mammoth Clansmen with Gold Grade strength. While they were focusing on that, Gannala exited the place to head to the Gaja Enclave.
Now, she intended to gather information regarding the Wean Clan and observe how many Free Humans they were getting as their spouses. Based on that, she'll be able to calculate when the population of the Wean Clan will grow big enough for her to target.
Moreover, there was a reason she was targeting Raaha and intended to give Orakha the power of the Gold Empyrean Tentacle first. It was due to a memory that was a part of her inheritance, originating from Renduldu himself.
When Renduldu consumed the Silver Empyrean Tentacle, he obtained its Nature as his Secondary Nature. But even after that, he remained an Iron Empyrean Tentacle. Basically, he had to endure the influence of a Silver Grade Nature, which messed with his mind.
Iron Grade Pranic Beasts didn't have sentience, so enduring the influence of a powerful Nature was impossible. And when he consumed the Gold Empyrean Tentacle, he went insane. As his mind shattered, Mahira Tusk was able to fully influence his mind.
And by the time his mind started to heal as the three Natures harmonised and allowed him to become a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle, Renduldu had fully become Mahira Tusk's pet. 'At that decisive moment, Orakha's mind will become weaker. That's when I'll faintly influence him so that he develops affection for the Mammoth Clan.'
That was merely one of her objectives. She had a bigger goal to attain through Orakha.
