I'll Surpass The MC-Chapter 823: Sleep!
Chapter 823: Sleep!
Mystic Sumatra Art-Sumatra Slip!
Brangara instinctively accessed the data in the Information Slip made out of Sumatra Gold, using it to forcefully stabilise his mind somewhat, no matter how little possible. Of course, that little stabilised situation crumbled the moment he saw Barla charging at him as the Empyrean Boar King.
The wound on his chest stung, but it healed in the fraction of a second. At the 9-Life Stage, his stacked body's regeneration was insurmountable, capable of healing from all sorts of injuries in the fraction of a second, including his head getting severed.
As long as his Astral World didn't get destroyed, he was unkillable. Moreover, at the 9-Life Stage, his Astral World was almost indestructible. Therefore, there was nothing he had to worry about.
Of course, whether or not he was worried about something didn't matter to Resha, who swiped his Royal Zinger claws at him, forming another gash.
Minor Treasure-Rocky Intimidation!
Multiple rock pillars covered the vacuum, as under the effects of Subtle Terrain Domination, it turned into dust and covered the vacuum.
Subtle Terrain Domination-Perfect Inertial Gravity!
Both Natures tussled with each other, with one trying to make a vacuum while the other intended to fill up the place. In the midst of it all, Resha's Royal Zinger form engaged in close combat with Brangara.
Resha was silent, not uttering any words, for currently, silence was the best weapon he could wield. After all, he didn't wish to distract Brangara's attention away from Barla.
"You...why?" Brangara uttered weakly as his body moved instinctively to face Resha. He suffered multiple gashes, but none of them mattered. After all, he healed them instantly. Moreover, even after fighting for so long, he hadn't lost much Prana.
His gaze was focused upon Barla, watching her arrive in his Spirit Weapon range, kicking the forming clumps of soil to close in on him, "Why are you attacking me?"
"Are you serious?" Barla snorted as her presence billowed out of her being, unleashing a suffocating presence, one that caused Resha to flinch instinctively, almost traumatised.
After all, this was a 10-Life Stage Empyrean Boar King, similar to the entity from Sumatra Chronicles that he died a dog's death to. Even though the Celestial Boar was significantly stronger, that aspect never mattered in the case of trauma.
Right as Barla stepped into his Spirit Weapon range, all the Tangible Natures in Brangara's Astral world reacted spontaneously. Immediately in response, the effects of Perfect Inertial Gravity were countered by the sheer number of Subtle Terrain Domination that had been activated.
"Ugh!" Resha unfurled his wings and glided away to avoid the storm that had erupted around Brangara.
Absolute Domain!
Eight Natures of Subtle Terrain Domination were enough for Brangara to unleash his absolute domain, which was more than enough for him to decimate the Cooter Clan branch at the Dralh Sea. Now, a good chunk of these natures has been elevated through the life stage, with some reaching the 10-life stage.
Moreover, there was even a Major Treasure variant of the same. The end result was an absolute domain that couldn't be breached. Of course, that was only for regular attacks.
State of Harmony-Astral Puncture!
Barla didn't even hesitate one bit as she gathered Prana into her hands and punched forth with all her might, unleashing a corkscrew that ruptured through the dust medium forming the absolute domain and slammed into Brangara.
"Gah!" Brangara hurriedly assumed Celestial Boar form, watching in shock as there was now a hole in his heart. This ability was powerful enough to not only harm the Celestial Boar's body, but puncture through one that was in a 9-Life Stage stack.
Within the next second, the hole closed up perfectly, as if there was never an injury in the first place. And immediately in response, the Celestial Boar condensed a Mud Ball, raised its density to the limit until its structure collapsed upon itself, turned it into a fiery ball of plasma, and exploded it upon Barla on the face.
"Hmph! So, you've abandoned all reason, eh father?" Barla tanked the attack on the face and wiped the droplet of blood that had dripped out. She glared as once the smoke cleared, the Celestial Boar loomed above her, raining down a series of punches on her.
[It works!]
Having been observing the scene all along, the moment Barla managed to pierce through Brangara's absolute domain easily, Boul Brimgan roared through all his Kinesis Felines.
"Let's go!"
"Finally, it's time to hunt the pig!"
"I'll rain attack from afar!"
"I will target him from mid-range!"
The Mystic Seven conversed each other and directly rushed towards Brangara. Prompting the first attack was a massive Attributed Region cone, reaching forty metres in length. It travelled at hypersonic speeds and approached the Celestial Boar.
Immediately in response, Barla moved in accordance and unleashed a second Astral Puncture, in the same direction as the Attributed Region cone's approach. She cleared a route through the absolute domain and wounded Brangara, following which Resha used External Inertial Gravity to guide it through the cleared route, right onto Brangara.
Boom!
There was a resounding explosion as whatever defensive measures his Tangible Natures had erected were brutally shattered. The Attributed Region cone slammed into his body and obliterated the arms and a portion of his chest, including half the neck.
Kaboom!
Following through the same opened route was a beam of pure Prana with a destructive nature, unleashed by Boul Brimgan's Kinesis Feline. It burned through the remaining half of the neck, turning it extremely fragile.
That's when the final attack arrived. It was an Ewworm bullet with the head of an Empyrean Boar King, its mouth open wide as it followed the same route as the other attacks and ate through the intact portion, finally severing the head.
That's when a Parute Tree popped up behind the Celestial Boar's body, right where the residual of Barla's and Inala's attacks had congregated, preventing Subtle Terrain Domination from taking control over the spot for the time being.
The Parute Tree turned into a carnivorous mouth and swallowed the severed Celestial Boar head, following which it withered away.
Dead!
This should have been the end of any living being, as its head had been severed. Even at the 9-
Life Stage, after his mind had been shattered by Inala's machinations, the Celestial Boar was freewēbnoveℓ.com
no match against the systematic combination of Sumatra's strongest combatants that had joined hands after repeated joint training sessions.
It stood there blankly, lacking a head. However, everyone at the scene knew this wasn't the
end.
"That's one," Resha uttered and broke into a sprint, watching the Celestial Boar regrow a new head as if it were nothing. "He's still at the 9-Life Stage!"
'We need a longer window of opportunity for Inala to use his power of Royal Split.' Resha
frowned as he counted the amount of time it took for the Celestial Boar to regenerate his head, 'Less than a second, that's too short.'
'We need at least three seconds, ideally four.' Resha grunted and began to bombard the absolute domain, puncturing through it with the help of Perfect Inertial Gravity, 'That's the amount of time Inala needs to remove one body from the Life Stage stack.'
Royal Split was unleashed through the combined power of ten Minor Treasures of Royal
Stabiliser. Even though it was an extremely powerful ability, it took some time to prepare, setup, activate, and achieve the effect of.
Against anyone at the Silver Grade and below, it was instantaneous. Against someone at the Gold Grade, it took around half a second.
When used on Boul Brimgan, Inala needed two seconds. Therefore, based on the data collected from the Celestial Boar body in their captive, Inala predicted he needed around four seconds. As long as he had at least three seconds, he had a non-zero chance of success.
Four seconds, and he was absolutely confident of splitting a body from the Life Stage stack. As long as this is done, the Celestial Boar's regeneration speed would slow down slightly, its Astral World would become less indestructible, etc.
The more the number of bodies they removed from the Life Stage stack and split them up, the greater their chance of killing Brangara. After all, once reduced to the Body Stage, they could
take their time to destroy the stomachs of each bodies.
It would take time, but they could get it done.
Boom!
'Guess it's not possible with long-range attacks alone!' Inala thought as he nodded at the
Kinesis Feline next to him. Immediately in response, the one accompanying Resha from afar
communicated the same.
Primary Nature-External Inertial Gravity!
Resha assumed flight for an instant as Inala appeared right next to him and began to voraciously suck in all the Prana forming Brangara's absolute domain, weakening it further. And right as he weakened it, dozens of Attributed Region cones struck the absolute domain.
He had launched them before appearing here. And now, as they struck, Barla used Astral
Puncture. And as a clean path had formed, Inala gathered Prana into his throat and bellowed
with all his might, unleashing a Tangible Piezo Slip.
[Sleep!]
