I'll Surpass The MC

chapter-538
"It's mine!" The Boar King roared as his figure flickered towards the Attribute, grunting in pain when a Spirit Weapon in the shape of a stamp touched his spine, causing tangible pieces of information to leak out of his mind.
Slurp!
Virala absorbed the information and retracted his Spirit Weapon to slither away, only to be bombarded by a series of shockwaves from the Boar King.
Immediately in response, Resha appeared overhead and transformed into the humanoid giant of Brully, slamming his hammer into the Boar King to stop his approach. A thunderous voice was generated from the impact as the Boar King's momentum only slowed down a little, for he was just that damn heavy.
A series of Gravity Bombs bombarded his face, resulting in tumultuous explosions. But the Boar King merely brushed past them and continued towards the Attribute, only to see grey sand cover his body as a Sandy-Grey Bomb was mixed amidst the Gravity Bombs."Tch!" The Boar King had to stop in his tracks, for the Sandy-Grey Bomb had targeted his ankle, preventing him from running. If he doesn't take care of it quickly, the grey sand will eat away at him entirety.
Without hesitation, he severed his leg, only to see a field of gravity latch the severed piece to his body.
Multiple Prime Skills of Gravity Funnel latched onto him, pulling all particles of grey sand in range towards the Boar King.
A Mystic Eater crawled onto his other leg using an opportune moment and ejected all its heat into the Boar King, raising his overall body temperature, forcing him to use more Prana to ensure his organs didn't secrete hormones and other substances due to the changing body temperature.
If the Boar King were to be a tad late in healing himself, his body's hormonal balance would go out of whack, which could even affect his stomach biome. It would secrete large quantities of stomach acids that would eat away into the land regions of his stomach biome.
Once the Parute Trees were to be destroyed, the Boar King's recovery would fall short, which would place him at a disadvantage.
Upon stalling the Boar King, Orakha rushed towards the Attribute, only to see Inala slam a bone hammer at him, one whose density was raised to the limit.'Hmm?' Inala's eyes widened in surprise to see his bone hammer had melted instantly once Orakha assumed his Human Avatar form, 'How is its heat way stronger than what I know?'
'It doesn't matter. I can figure it out later.' Inala unleashed a gust of pressurised wind at Orakha, sending the latter flying. He then had to switch back to Gravity Bombs to see Virala's Mystic Ewworm form slithering towards the Attribute.
Explosions resounded nonstop as the Mystic Ewworm accurately used the edges of the field of explosion generated by the Gravity Bombs to counter each other and continue through them with minimal damage.
His figure transformed into an Empyrean Boar King all of a sudden, stunning everyone at the scene to ram into Inala and send him flying.
"There's another?" Inala didn't have enough time to relish in his state of shock as he assumed Empyrean Zinger form and curved in the air to change his momentum. He sprayed a bunch of Prana Bombs storing a certain gas. This was created by the Medicine Lord, Lurt who was still confined in his stomach biome.
The gas was capable of solidifying into ice at the slightest exertion of force. Upon impact, the effects of Internal Inertial Gravity in the Prana Bomb disappeared, causing the gas to burst out and solidify into a sheet of ice immediately.
It was very weak and didn't have much combat use. But it was enough to stall someone like Virala for an instant.
Virala reverted to his Mystic Ewworm form once his Empyrean Boar King form got stuck in ice. Now, he had enough space, following which he moved a bit and became an Empyrean Boar King. The rapid expansion of his figure shattered the ice, allowing him to break free and rush towards the Attribute, only to have a gust of air send him flying away.
His Mystic Ewworm form was agile but weightless. Hence, Inala's gust of air could send him flying.
The Boar King's expression turned fierce upon seeing Virala assume Empyrean Boar King form, for in his mind, there existed only one existence on Sumatra capable of doing the same other than him.
Loot!
"That bastard is here!" Dhya gritted her teeth in anger. She and Amita had just reached Compartment 1-M and noticed the fight happening in the centre, right on time to witness the Mystic Ewworm transform into the Empyrean Boar King.
"We need to hurry." Amita said upon seeing the fight, "My male body won't be able to last long."
"You'll die if you were to go there!" Dhya expressed her fluster, "Even if you end up getting the Attribute, you'll be killed instantly by the fighters there. They're not at a level where you can handle their attacks."
"Tell me," Amita glared at Dhya, "Do I have a choice?"
Seeing Dhya shake her head, Amita continued, "Then let's not waste time in an argument. Try to reach the centre as quickly as possible to save me."
The duo hurriedly targeted the Attributed Creature holding the key to the centre as Amita rushed into the centre soon after.
"Urgh!" Inala crashed into the wall and got a good portion of his legs shredded by the impact. He hurriedly layered his wings with Prana Bombs, enough to assume flight and took to the skies once again, watching the Boar King slam into the position he was at just a fraction of a second ago.
While on flight, he focused on healing his wings, which seemed to take forever in this high-paced fight. He didn't have time to heal his bleeding legs anytime soon. His recovery speed at the Silver Grade proved insufficient. 'Hurry, Amita! I won't be able to last long without the Life Bombs!'
A bunch of Mystic Eaters latched onto the Boar King and constricted him, targeting his Spirit Container, only to have a shockwave obliterate them all.
'It's mine!' Virala leaped onto the Attribute, only to see a field of gravity send him flying as Resha hovered above the Attribute.
He looked around, observing mysterious women arriving at the Compartments of Layer One in droves, 'Are they Empyrean Tusks?'
He had encountered them along the path when luring the Boar King. But these women quickly rushed into adjacent Compartments to avoid the Boar King entirely. As they were separated by the walls of different Compartments, Resha was unable to ask them about their identity.
Even though he thought they were Empyrean Tusks, but at the Body Stage, he couldn't verify their identities. It was necessary to be at the Life Stage for that. Prana detection means could be easily fooled before that.
Based on what he knew, Empyrean Tusks were unable to assume human forms, unless they were like him, which wasn't possible as only the immune system of the Supreme Tusk Gannala was able to transform into Empyrean Tusks.
Even if the Mammoth Clan managed to figure out a way, it was impossible to raise experts on the level of these women, and in such large numbers. Hence, he was unsure of their identities, especially upon seeing them use Spirit Weapons more than their bodies, which was a characteristic of Free Humans.
And the range displayed by these women was only possible for Brimgan Royals. All these puzzling pieces of information confused Resha, causing him to hesitate as he stared at the Major Treasure of Attribute, 'If I touch it, I'll obtain it. But doing so would disrupt the Cure's influence. In my current state, obtaining the Attribute will be detrimental. Maybe if I had a couple more decades, I should be able to manage fusing with a second Major Treasure.'
'What do I do now?' Resha looked around. He wanted to run away with the Attribute and give it to the Mammoth Clan Chief. But in the present scenario, he wasn't sure if that was possible.
His gaze then fell on Compartment 1-A, noticing the second body of the Boar King enter it, chased after by Raaha, Geugeu, and Boul Brimgan. Upon seeing that, Resha was relieved, 'The Chief's here!'
"Then…" Resha glared at the Boar King, "I don't need to worry about anyone obtaining the Attribute. We can kill the owner to reclaim it anyway. The Chief will take care of that."
With that in mind, Resha charged towards the Boar King, using a flux of gravity to pull Virala and Orakha towards him and attacked the Boar King, "Face me if you dare, Brangara!"
"Bastard! Did alone if you're so eager!" Virala cocooned himself using the stamp made from the Golden Giant to protect himself as he was pulled towards Resha.
"This dumbass!" Orakha cursed in response as he maintained his Human Avatar form, shouting immediately after, "Pull Inala too!"
"I am!" Resha grunted and unleashed a field of gravity towards Inala, only to see it failing to take effect as a layer of Prana Bomb covered Inala.
The Prana Bomb armour absorbed the Prana within the gravity fast enough to weaken its effect on Inala. Using his thrust, he sped away, extending a string of Prana towards a gate as the figure of Amita rushed into Layer Zero and extended a layer of Prana towards himself.
"They were…the same person?" Virala was stunned at the scene, realising the extent of Inala's preparations, 'This fucker might end up uniting both the Mammoth Clan and Cooter Clan.'
"You win this, Inala." Virala sighed in defeat, "Your preparations are simply superior."
"As if I'll allow you!" The Boar King roared and infused the effects of Internal Inertial Gravity in his Prana Shock to send the trio of Resha, Virala, and Orakha flying. With a kick on the floor, he unleashed a burst of air to thrust himself towards Inala in a hurry, "That Major Treasure's Mine!"
In his heightened state, the Boar King's vision was focused upon the figures of Inala and Amita, observing the string connecting the two contract rapidly, causing the two individuals to fuse.
"Aaargh!" There was a painful scream as if someone was tortured to the extreme as the different influences in Inala and Amita bombarded each body, about to cause an implosion.
But as their bodies became one, their presences reacted with each other, like a fusion reaction as Amita's Sumatra Gold Skeleton stabilised it. Their combined figure then slammed into the Major Treasure of Attribute.
The Boar King stared in shock as an instant later, dozens of Bolts of Transcendence slammed into the individual in his vision.
