Primary Nature—Fission and Fusion!
Warts formed all over Yennda's skin and began to pulse like thumping hearts, beginning to grow in such a manner that the viewer could experience every single phobia that existed under the heavens.
Soon, the fission beings grew large enough to detach from his body and live on their own. There was enough Empyrean Tusk essence, rich with their Prana and blood, enough for the fission beings to have a feast, which they did without hesitation.
As they consumed the rich resource without holding back, their bodies began to grow, damn unstable, seemingly about to collapse in a matter of minutes. Even the most stable fission being seemed unable to last an hour.
Secondary Nature—Infection!
Suddenly, as a wave of Prana radiated from Yennda, all the fission beings experienced a surge in primal instincts, making them wish to devour each other. Not even a second spanned past since the Prana emission before which, all fission beings ganged upon each other.
They bit and tore into each other, causing polluted blood to spill upon the lake and infect it. Blola stood right beside the lake, enveloping his powers in the region to set the lake's boundaries as the boundaries beyond which the fission beings wouldn't go. There was a twisted smile on his face as he muttered, "Eat…eat more…"
"Eat lots!"
Tertiary Nature—Mutation!
As the fission beings ate each other, they consumed and assimilated some of the characteristics gained during their growth and hunt. As a result, they mutated, which was even more unstable than their already unstable bodies.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSome mutated and burst into a pool of pus immediately after. Yennda didn't seem to mind that and instead created even more fission beings, adding to the chaotic pile.
Standing far away while observing his actions were Blola and Virala, feeling absolutely disgusted.
"Your brother takes after you," Virala commented all of a sudden.
"Don't talk about your dad like that." Blola snapped in response.
"Fuck you!" Virala cursed under his breath.
"Go fuck Yennda. Isn't he your darling?" Blola snorted in disdain, "I know he's your type."
The two stared at each other as goosebumps formed on their skin, causing them to tremble in response before they dropped the trash talk.
"Let's not go there ever again." Blola said, "I rather not imagine it even while thinking of a response to trash talk."
"I second that." Virala made a disgusted expression, "I seriously don't want to be associated with this bastard. I'm not insane enough to talk to him yet."
"Well, you're the one who was happy to include him in your plan," Blola complained.
"He'll be tremendously effective against Grehha and Inala. That's why I roped him into our team. Besides, he doesn't desire any of the remaining Major Treasures." Virala expressed disdain, "I simply told him I'll create a beautiful life for him and he was more than ready to heed all my demands."
"You're a greedy man to desire both the Attribute and the Weapon." Blola changed topics, "Can you handle two Major Treasures?"
"If Resha could easily do it, then why should I be any different?" Virala snorted.
"You're not Resha." Blola mocked, "Don't fool yourself into believing you're on his level. Even though your cultivation is higher than him now and both of you are Empyrean Tusks, he can still wipe the floor with you. There's a difference in fighting talent and experience."
"It's just a matter of time before I surpass Resha." Virala stated in confidence and stared at Blola, "You're happy with just the Major Treasure of Pet?"
"That's what is most useful to me." Blola nodded, "It's a perfect addition to my power set. Besides, the reason we allied is because our interests don't conflict."
For the endgame builds of both Resha and the reincarnates, there was a set amount of treasures that were of pivotal necessity. For Inala, that was the Major Treasure of Attribute. It wouldn't affect him much if he failed to obtain other Major Treasures, but Attribute was a must. His endgame build would fall apart otherwise.
It was the Major Treasure of Weapon for Virala and Grehha, the Major Treasure of Pet for Yennda, Grehha, and Blola.
In Yennda's case, whether it was his initial plan that went up in smokes or his current endgame build, both were reliant on the Major Treasure of Pet.
This was merely in terms of an absolute need. Everyone wanted all Major Treasures if they could help it. And among them, the Attribute was very useful, contested by Inala, Orakha, and Resha with all their power. Even Virala and Yennda too would be happy to get their hands on it, as it literally changed their Prana itself.
While they continued to discuss, Yennda watched as all resources of value in the lake had been consumed by his fission beings. And as they fought and consumed each other, there was a single survivor, possessing a bunch of disconnected powers.
Yennda grabbed the fission being and used his Primary Nature to absorb it into his body, transforming into a grotesque creature. Immediately after that, he focused on his unstable body and observed which genetic aspects of this fission being were beneficial to him. Nurtured using the essence of 104 Empyrean Tusk, one of the products was very potent, to his liking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe absorbed just that and released the rest as fission beings into the lake, watching them fight each other until their bodies gave out. Now, all that was left in the lake was a heap of toxic waste, infectious enough to spread a bunch of diseases in the region.
"I'm done here." Yennda stared at Blola, "Revive me back at the Mammoth Clan when it's convenient."
"You're not going to clean this up?" Blola frowned as he stared at the massive toxic lake, "This is blatant evidence of your actions."
"I don't have any abilities to stop this." Saying so, Yennda committed suicide by bleeding out from his neck.
"Damn this moron!" Blola cursed once Yennda was dead. He stared at Virala, "What should we do now?"
"What else?" Virala grunted in annoyance and stared at the toxic lake, "We need to cover this shit up. Otherwise, we'll be fucked when Raaha discovers this."
"Yennda isn't entirely on our side." Blola sighed as he realised what was up, "Since he got what he wanted, he left behind this toxic lake to screw us."
For a moment, both Virala and Blola stared at each other in surprise, only now realising that Yennda had screwed them over. If the Mammoth Clan were to turn around and investigate this place, they'd discover plenty of clues that would show the involvement of Virala and Blola.
Moreover, there were traces of Empyrean Tusk essence in the toxic lake. Raaha would be able to figure out the truth through that.
"Fuck!" Virala equipped the Gold Nature Weapon of Artillery and began to bombard the lake until all harmful biological substances in it were killed, resulting in an acid lake. Now, it was merely chemical in nature, which wasn't as big of a problem as before.
Virala changed a bunch of Nature Weapons, finally stopping at the Nature Weapon with the power of a Mud Viper to stare at a normal piece of ground before him, "It's done now."
"Just in case…" Blola transformed into the Transcendent Eater and absorbed a bunch of nutrients from the region until there was a nutrient balance. Only after that did he stop.
"Let's head to the Brimgan Empire now," Virala said as he wiped his sweat and began to proceed in a certain path. He soon came across a three-storey Storage Lantern—that he had stolen during the chaos when Empyrean Tusks skidded and rolled across the Sticky-Slip Plateau—buried in the land. In it were the rest of his Nature Weapons.
Once fully equipped, he and Blola began to make their way towards the Brimgan Empire. Their priority?
To kill Inala!
