I'll Surpass The MC
chapter-613

In the inheritance, Renduldu simply stated that Mahira Tusk's actions helped form his mind faster. He didn't care about what she had done to him, since before that, he didn't have sentience. The influence from his Silver Grade Secondary Nature had already destroyed whatever intelligence he had long ago.

It was a necessary process he had to go through to become a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle. As a result, Renduldu didn't blame Mahira Tusk. Instead, he honoured her actions. After all, without her, he would have either died or been consumed by the other two Empyrean Tentacle variants.

It was only thanks to Mahira Tusk's support that an Iron Empyrean Tentacle reached Mystic Grade. Moreover, depending on their birth variant, and the order of variants they consumed, the power they could unleash—through the harmonisation of their three Natures—upon becoming a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle varies.

Future Sight was the power Renduldu created upon entering Mystic Grade. He was the sole Mystic Empyrean Tentacle with this power.

Future Sight worked by calculating all the variables present in a region and predicting the future based on it. The process was merely mathematical, done repeatedly to increase the accuracy of the result.

When Renduldu became a Transcendent, his three Natures fused to become a Transcendent Nature, conceptualising Future Sight into what he used on Resha.

The current Mammoth Clan was actually the second generation that Mahira Tusk had created. The first generation all possessed the Primary Nature of Weaponisation, which resulted in their unified annihilation when Mahira Tusk performed the Dance of Annihilation.

It was why she introduced a flaw in the Mammoth Clan's cultivation journey and made them fuse with Pranic Beasts at the Body Stage instead.

But, what about the first generation who had become Nature Weapons? Through the Dance of Recovery, Mahira Tusk was able to revert the Nature Weapons into the Mammoth Clansmen.

There was no information about it anywhere, whether in the Mammoth Clan or in the records of powerful Pranic Beast races that Mahira Tusk had been involved with.

Even in the Gaja Enclave, there was only a severed tusk—Mahira Tusk's second tusk—buried deep underground. All it contained was the Dance of Recovery, which crumbled into powder once Gannala absorbed all the Dance of Recoveries in it.

As there was no information about the Nature Weapons created through the first generation of Mammoth Clansmen, Gannala began to think of the various possibilities. As she had inheritances from all Empyrean Tusks, she focused on fragmented pieces of information.

It was how she realised there was a first generation.

Honestly, it didn't take her long to figure out the answer—Mammoth Treasury!

The Mammoth Treasury was an Influenced Region carried in the brain of the 1st Empyrean Tusk from Mahira Tusk's time. The power of the Major Treasure in it was said to be a container holding the Gold Empyrean Tentacle's power.

As she thought about it, Gannala felt confused at first. How could the Mammoth Clan Chiefs obtain the power of the Gold Empyrean Tentacle from the Mammoth Treasury without fusing with its egg?

It made sense for the first Mammoth Clan Chief with the power to have obtained it, since it could be argued that he found the egg. But what about the second Chief? How did the Mammoth Clan consistently obtain the egg?

The answer became simple after that. There was no egg.

Mahira Tusk experimented upon the first Mammoth Clan generation. Since they all had the Primary Nature of Weaponisation, it meant they were all at the Gold Grade. She simply used them as resources until one of them became a Major Treasure.

As to how she succeeded, Gannala wasn't sure. But somehow, Mahira Tusk managed to create a Major Treasure that held the power of Weaponisation. And the form it had was to store in the power of any one Pranic Beast.

So, when a Mammoth Clan is deemed suitable, the Major Treasure would grant this Pranic Beast's power to the Mammoth Clansman similar to equipping the Nature Weapon onto a Nature slot. As it was a Major Treasure, it directly made it their power.

Mahira Tusk used this upon the Gold Empyrean Tentacle, storing it in the Mammoth Treasury. The first person she granted the Gold Empyrean Tentacle's power through the Mammoth Treasury was Renduldu.

Once Renduldu became a Transcendent, the Iron, Silver, and Gold Empyrean Tentacles could spawn on Sumatra again. And due to the power of the Mammoth Treasury, the Gold Empyrean Tentacle's power returned to it.

After that, the Mammoth Clan Chief of that generation obtained the Gold Empyrean Tentacle's power. When he got killed by the Boar King, the power returned to the Mammoth Treasury, after which another Mammoth Clan Chief obtained it.

The third person to do so was Raaha. And when Raaha dies, the power returns to the Mammoth Treasury. This was the foundation Mahira Tusk had laid for the Mammoth Clan to remain prosperous.

After all, with the power of the Gold Empyrean Tentacle on their side, they'll remain strong. Gannala's target was exactly that—the Mammoth Treasury.

"During her time, the strongest Nature she could store in the Mammoth Treasury was the Gold Empyrean Tentacle's Nature of Thought Condensation." Gannala muttered, "But things are different in the current era. Many Mystic Grade Natures have appeared."

She possessed two of them: Weaponisation, and Drifting Tunnel.

Yarsha Zahara had one, Inala had two, and Brangara had three. A Mystic Grade Nature Weapon—with the Bludder's power— was used on Ruvva.

There were already so many Mystic Grade Natures on Sumatra and the number would only increase in the future. The Mammoth Ancestor's foresight was tremendously valuable, but it'll soon become irrelevant.

Hence, the power within Mammoth Treasury had to be changed to a Mystic Grade Nature. It's a known fact that a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast cannot be naturally born on Sumatra Continent.

But does that statement stay true for a Major Treasure? Treasures—whether Minor or Major—operated at laws surpassing Sumatra. So, if Gannala manages to place a Mystic Grade Nature in the Mammoth Treasury, then will the one getting its power enter the Mystic Grade?

It may happen or it may not happen. The Mammoth Treasury had been created through a Gold Grade Mammoth Clansman who possessed Weaponisation.

Then, if that foundation was increased to the Mystic Grade? Gannala had a spare Mystic Grade Weaponisation—Virala—to use for this purpose. She planned to use him and make changes to the Major Treasure within Mammoth Treasury.

Once she succeeds, she'll fuse with the Major Treasure and gain extra power. Then, she'll become even stronger. One of the ingredients she was on the lookout for was none other than the Wean Clan's Primary Nature of Empyrean Boar Transformation.

The Wean Clan's Natures were special. When in human form, they only had their Primary Nature. Only after transforming into an Empyrean Boar would their Secondary Nature of Voracious Nature appear.

So, as long as they were in human form, Gannala's Weaponisation was effective against them. Upon getting the Nature Weapon, she could equip it on other Pranic Beasts, transform them into Empyrean Boars, and consume them.

It didn't matter even if those Pranic Beasts went insane due to the influence of the Nature Weapon. Gannala will simply recycle the Nature Weapon's worth to mature faster. She could make these transformed Empyrean Boars consume Blola's Transcendent Eater form to mature faster, following which she would consume them.

For that to happen, she sneaked into the Zahara Kingdom, knowing very well that once Brangara had stabilised, he would bring the Wean Clan here to find mates for his children to increase the number of Wean Clansmen.

It would be a grand event across the Zahara Kingdom. Many Free Human Kingdoms would participate too, having learnt of the information through their spies. No one would miss the opportunity to obtain the Celestial Boar's protection.

So, there would be chaos during that time. And of course, Gannala was acting behind the scenes to ensure information from the spies reached their respective Kingdoms as fast as possible through the tunnels she had created.

The Pranic Beasts carrying the info would suddenly experience a long fall in a gravity-filled tunnel, at the end of which, it would find itself a lot closer to its destination than it could have travelled on foot. Moreover, its survival chances were almost guaranteed during the travel thanks to the tunnels.

When Free Humans from other Kingdoms succeed in bearing a Wean Clansman, there would be chaos due to the politics involved. While these Kingdoms use this chance to either forge a relationship with Brangara or sneak away with the Wean Clan spawn, Gannala would use the opportunity to make a haul for herself.

'It starts in a month.' She took a broom and began to sweep the rundown tea house's floor, 'During this time, I'll finalise my preparations.'

"I'll change the Major Treasure in such a way that I can use its power, even when my Nature slots are filled." Gannala tightened her hold over her broom, "It's even better if that plan fails. As long as fusing with the Major Treasure can give me extra Nature slots, it's a win for me."

"I need to prepare more." Her sweeping actions slowed as she observed her trembling fingers, 'The pressure I'm feeling upon taking this daunting task upon myself is unbearable.'

"Is this what Dad had to live with for two decades while preparing to become the Royal Zinger?" Whether her Mammoth Clan self liked or disliked the thought mattered naught. She, as Gannala, was wholeheartedly in awe of her father.

Now that she was slowly treading upon his footsteps, Gannala was able to understand him at a level deeper than when she passively read his thoughts. Scheming against allies, scheming against enemies, and formulating plans that everyone would think were absurd, all while living in hiding by taking on a double, triple life, was terrifyingly impressive.

Just now, she was starting to understand it. "Maybe one day, I can see you eye to eye, Inala."
