I'll Surpass The MC-Novel

Chapter 289 Inala Bullshit Class 101

Natures had an effect on the entity that possessed them. This was never an issue for Pranic Beasts, because their Nature defined them.

But humans weren't born with a Nature. Hence, when they obtain a Nature at the Body Stage, they are influenced accordingly. At times, this change in character, mentality, and thought process caused problems for both their self and others around them.

There wasn't a solution to this other than to put up with it. The general prescription would be to meditate for a while without using their Nature and self-introspect themselves. They'll eventually come to terms with it and figure out a way to live as usual through the influence.

A Mammoth Clansman had two influences. The first was from their Nature while the second was from their Empyrean Tusks.

They generally didn't treat their mind to endure the influence like Free Humans. No, they generally let it run rampant. After all, irrespective of his powerful the influence got, it would never surpass the Empyrean Tusk's influence on them.

As a result, no matter how twisted they got, they'll still live in line as a Mammoth Clansman, serving the Mammoth Clan's interests. The best example of this was Bora Tusk.

But the farther away from the Empyrean Tusk they got, the weaker its influence on them. Eventually, the influence of their Natures would grow stronger.

Generally, most of the Mammoth Clansmen fused with Beginner or Intermediate Silver Grade Pranic Beasts. The resultant Silver Grade Natures weren't strong enough to tip the scales in terms of influence.

The Mammoth Clansmen with the power of Advanced or Expert Silver Grade Pranic Beasts were Settlement Leaders, Lady Mothers, and core pillars that protected the Mammoth Clan.

They never left their Empyrean Tusk, living there for all their lives. Hence, they never had to worry too much about the influence of their Natures.

This was why Asaeya faced a lot of mental issues. Not only was her Natures at the Expert Silver Grade, but she had two of them, with the effects of Akashic Transfer no different from doing drugs.

Hence, she was plagued with a lot of problems.

In the Cooter Clan, the Cooter Clansmen were regularly dispatched to various locations away from their Empyrean Snappers at three-month intervals. Many had to endure the influence of their Natures during these pressing times.

There were rare cases where a Cooter Clansman went mad. To solve such issues, the Cooter Clan developed the Influence Easing Elixir.

Its function was simple, which was to reduce the influence a Nature had on its owner. In their case, after consuming an Influence Easing Elixir, a Cooter Clansman would recover to normalcy. And by meditating in such a state, they would fully recover and wouldn't have to worry about going mad.

The effects of the Elixir would last long enough for the Clansman to strengthen their mind to the extreme, growing robust enough that even after the Elixir's effect wanes, the Nature's influence wouldn't be able to affect them to the extent it would bother them.

Had an Empyrean Boar consumed the Influence Easing Elixir, it wouldn't be subject to the potent influence of the hundreds of Natures that it had devoured. It would have been able to preserve its mind long enough for it to grow and eventually resist the influences on its own.

Unfortunately for the Empyrean Boar race, they were too far away from the Cooter Clan. As a result, they never got the Influence Easing Elixir and hence, were never able to overcome their pitiful fate until they were exterminated by the Mammoth Clan.

One of Inala's objectives was to get as many Influence Easing Elixirs as possible. Asaeya was in dire need of one, and so did he. Even though he was growing stronger, both physically and mentally, his Natures were maturing at a faster pace.

He had three Natures. Hence, the Influence Easing Elixir was a necessity for his growth too. Moreover, to have a safe cultivation journey, using an Influence Easing Elixir every time he built a new body was beneficial. Hence, he alone required ten of them.

His second objective was Wittral. But as he had just arrived, Inala focused on the first objective.

Mystic Bone Art—Prana Claw!

Hearing Wittral's statement, Inala smiled wryly and activated his Prana Claw Skill. He stared at Nurnur and extended his hand toward her, "Do you mind if I were to demonstrate?"

"Go ahead," Nurnur wasn't in the least concerned as she extended her hand forward, 'Let's see what this Free Human can do. She doesn't seem strong enough…'

"Achk!" Nurnur screeched in pain as her Prana was sucked into Inala through his claw. The hard, shell-like texture of the claw felt cold to the touch, as if they were made purely out of bones, with no ounce of flesh and blood in them.

"That's my power," Inala retracted his hand and deactivated his Prana Claw Skill, watching Nurnur's twisted expression with a sadistic smile, "My power allows me to steal the Prana of my target through touch. It's very powerful, as you can judge."

"Dammit," Nurnur cursed in response upon seeing Inala proving his strength through her. Even though she wished to retort, her heart rate had accelerated, causing her face to flush red. There was pain in her chest, with his Spirit Container trembling mildly due to Prana being forcefully taken out of it.

Her Spirit Container had a mild crack. Even though she mended the damage within a couple of seconds, the extent of the damage was an evident display of Inala's frightening power.

lightsΝοvel.cοm "My Human Avatar is built using a Silver Grade mineral," Inala said, "The power it grants me is very potent, but its influence is equally worse."

He said, followed by a sigh, "Whenever I see someone, I feel an intense urge to attack them and steal their Prana. I have suffered a lot in the past because of this. It is why I took the risk to leave the Brimgan Empire in search of the Influence Easing Elixir."

"Alas," He said with a forlorn expression, "All the people on my ship, and the goods I brought to exchange for the Influence Easing Elixir have been destroyed by those blasted Pranic Beasts."

"I can't imagine it being difficult for you with the level of strength you displayed," Wittral commented, observing the changes in Nurnur's facial expression to judge the potency of Inala's ability, "And if you're from a powerful merchant house, there should have been strong guards posted for your safety, right?"

"Yes," Inala nodded, eyes red, tears streaming, "I was accompanied by two of my uncles. One was in the 4-Life Stage while the other was in the 5-Life Stage. Both stayed back to stall the three Gold Grade Pranic Beasts that chased us relentlessly."

"They might still be alive," Nurnur commented, "It's hard for a master to die with multiple lives at their disposal."

"I hope that is the case," Inala nodded and wiped his tears. He then stared at Wittral, "You seem special even among Cooter Clansmen. Can I compensate you in any way for the Influence Easing Elixir? I desperately need one."

"I seem special?" Wittral asked, his eyes mildly widening in surprise, interested to see what Inala had to say, "Why do you think so?"

"Well…" Inala dragged his words, seemingly trying to articulate his thoughts as he spoke in the end, staring into Wittral's eyes, "I feel a mysterious sense of oppression from you."

"It's as if the world is at your beck and call."
