I'll Surpass The MC

Chapter 158 Transcendent Eater

At the same time when the Wean Clan was established, the herd of 104 Empyrean Tusks exited the Dieng Canyon, proceeding about in their new route.

In Sumatra Chronicles, the focus was only on the smaller herd of 43 Empyrean Tusks. But now, after the merger, they reached the three digits. The moment they did so, the herd began to unleash a formless pressure onto its surroundings, causing any approaching Pranic Beasts to weaken in response.

While the herd left the Dieng Canyon, a figure jumped from the head of the 1st Empyrean Tusk, carrying a boy in his arms.

Mammoth Clan Chief—Raaha!

In his hold was Blola. Raaha landed on the mountain at the Dieng Canyon's edge. His arrival caused the Zingers there to flee in fear, for they were merely Zinger Scouts, the weakest of their kind even among scouts.

On the empty mountain peak, Raaha threw Blola and observed the latter, "Have you stabilised completely?"

"Yes," Blola closed his eyes and sensed his Spirit Container, "I have just finished comprehending my powers. I'm fully in control now."

"What is it called?" Raaha asked next, "What is its grade?"

"Gold Grade," Blola said, "But that's simply after it assimilated into me. In truth, it's a far scarier existence."

Beginner Gold Grade Pranic Beast—Transcendent Eater!

This wasn't a creature that was supposed to exist in Sumatra Continent. Rather, it was an existence feared by the Transcendents in the worlds hovering high up in the sky.

A Transcendent Eater devoured even Transcendents, a terrifying existence unlike others, hence its name.

"It isn't a native creature. Rather, it came from the cosmos and one of the Transcendent Worlds assimilated it into itself, resulting in the birth of the Transcendent Eater." Blola explained, "When a Parute Tree remains untouched for a million years, it creates a Parute Seed. It would then germinate into the Parute Tree King. If even that is left untouched for a million years, it evolves once again."

"But this time, it's able to move and hunt around, becoming the Transcendent Eater." Blola said, "Had a Transcendent Eater appeared in Sumatra Continent, all life would have been devoured overnight. It's that powerful since even Transcendents flee on sight."

"You mean to say you've fused with such an entity?" Raaha felt it hard to believe, "Is that even possible?"

"I'm not an actual Transcendent Eater," Blola shook his head, "Mine has regressed to a Pranic Beast version. Therefore, it's well within the power norms of Sumatra Continent. Its current power is only equal to a Beginner Gold Grade Pranic Beast."

"Alright, show it to me," Raaha said and stepped back a little. "What exactly is a Transcendent Eater's power?" contemporary romance

Primary Nature—Memory Revival!

A Transcendent Eater was able to revive all the Transcendents it had consumed. And once revived, these Transcendents became its servants, following its will. That was why a Transcendent Eater was feared.

After all, the longer it lived and consumed, the stronger it became, capable of growing virtually without limits. There have been Transcendent Worlds that were fully taken over by a Transcendent Eater.

The Gold Grade Pranic Beast version Blola had was a watered-down nerfed version of a Transcendent Eater. It could only revive two people. And the revival slot was his Natures.

Since his Secondary and Tertiary Natures were empty, he could revive two cultivators. Moreover, unlike the other Mammoth Clan cultivators at the Body Stage that needed to consume Empyrean Tusk bone powder to build their bodies, Blola's was automatic.

Once Raaha backed away, Blola activated his transformation. In response, all the Prana in his Spirit Container was consumed, causing tiny tendrils to jut out of his feet and dig into the ground. These tendrils resembled his hair at the start.

They behaved like roots and began to voraciously suck in the soil's nutrients, thickening up in response. Just as how a tree grew from a sapling stage, Blola's body began to transform, slowly, but surely.

Raaha patiently waited in response. The Empyrean Tusk herd had already vanished from the horizon, proceeding in its route. He commanded them to not stop, for that would cause problems with their resource accumulation.

Now that the herd had crossed a hundred in number, no region could singlehandedly facilitate their need for resources. If they remained in one place for more than a month, they would suck up the region dry.

Hence, it was mandatory to keep moving. It was why Raaha made them leave while he stayed behind with Blola.

He had already reached the peak of cultivation. Hence, he had no need for resources other than food. His Ten-Storey Storage Lantern had more than enough food for his consumption.

With his strength, he had nothing to worry about. Even alone, he could destroy a Kingdom casually, being one of the strongest cultivators at Sumatra Continent presently.

Besides, he kept Blola's changes a secret, hence why they were alone. As days passed in such a fashion, Raaha kept note of Blola's growth.

Two months later, Blola's body finished growing. A tree reaching twenty metres in height, sporting a dozen flowers shaped like a pitcher plant's pitcher. Its insides were jagged while vines akin to tentacles squirmed around inside, behaving as tongues.

Parute Fruits began to grow on its branches, gradually ripening. They were dense, with each fruit capable of granting a unit of Prana. The roots behaved like the legs of a millipede, too numerous to count, squirming incessantly while they dug into the ground and consumed the soil.

"Blola," Raaha uttered once he judged Blola's growth was complete, "How's your cultivation?"

"Chief, I'm at the peak of the Body Stage." Blola said, "Though, it seems I cannot build a second body for some reason. I can't figure out the reason but I feel it's something related to the mind."

Raaha stretched his hand and tugged casually, causing a Zinger from far away to fly into his grasp. He threw it before Blola, "Consume it and revive it. Let's experiment and see how effective your ability is."

"I'm afraid, I cannot, Chief." Blola apologised, "Currently, I can consume two beings and fill their data in the slots of my Secondary and Tertiary Natures. But somehow, these two slots are already filled."

"Filled with who?" Raaha asked, feeling mildly irritated.

"Orakha and Yennda," Blola said, "Two of the seven Death Row students from the previous 44th Settlement."

Seeing Raaha's confusion, Blola stated, sighing in response, "I can now understand why this happened, Chief."

"The one that caused this is Renduldu."

"Renduldu?" Raaha's eyes widened in surprise, "You mean the previous Mystic Tentacle and our Clan's staunch ally, that Renduldu?"

"Yes," Blola nodded, "He was behind everything. This is his last show of support to our Clan. The Transcendent Eater's power is his final contingency measure against the Boar King."
