Chapter 281 Time to Grind


    Brangara obtained the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator by consuming arge number of Mammoth nsmen. Of course, if not for the characteristic of his Primary Nature of Voracious Nature, he wouldn''t have satisfied the conditions necessary to obtain the Nature of Cultivator.


    He didn''t use his Primary Nature, but its characteristics influenced his consumption of Mammoth nsmen and with enough umtion, paved the way for the birth of his Tertiary Nature of Cultivator.


    The current Gann was in a simr state to Brangara. She didn''t have Voracious Nature but instead possessed Mystic Bone Art, which was also a power rted to consumption.


    Through his Mystic Skill Creator, In mapped out a route for her. Of course, the original route was long and abundant with risks. However, after he obtained the Mudropper''s data, he was able to modify the route and make it a tad easier.


    Gann will have to consume Cooter nsmen for that. But she wouldn''t consume them directly, but instead through Wittral. The process would be simr to what Brangara had been subjected to under the control of Undrakha.


    Fragment Disease was a condition experienced by Mammoth nsmen born with a gic makeup close to, if not simr to an Empyrean Tusk. Simrly, Buoyant Disease was the Cooter n''s equivalent of the Mammoth n''s Fragment Disease.


    Cooter nsmen with the Buoyant Disease had a negative affinity towards fluids. If they were to touch water, their bodies would be stunned, unable to move. In some situations, they would even experience a heart attack and die.


    Touching water was the most dangerous for Cooter nsmen with the Buoyant Disease, followed by mist, and finally air. Thankfully, breathing in air didn''t kill them, but it still caused their bodies a lot of strain, making them feel as if they were drowning, but not to the extent they would suffocate and die.


    In the Mammoth n, Resha and the six reincarnates with the Fragment Disease had a gic makeup close to the Supreme Tusk. Hence, when they absorbed the blood of an Empyrean Tusk during their breakthrough from the Spirit Stage to the Body Stage, they obtained the power of an Empyrean Tusk.


    There wasn''t a Supreme Tusk equivalent among the Empyrean Snappers. After all, they didn''t have the assistance of the Mystic Empyrean Tentacle. Hence, they hadn''t reached such a point in development.


    Therefore, they didn''t have anyone like Resha.


    But that didn''t mean the Cooter ncked ambition. No, they too were actively trying to reach the Mystic Grade. However, since they didn''t have the Mystic Empyrean Tentacle''s assistance, they could only proceed with the traditional route.


    It was to birth the strongest possible Empyrean Snappers. Simr to the Mammoth n, when two Cooter nsmen with the Buoyant Disease copte, the birthed baby is an Empyrean Snapper. They faced the same difficulties as the Mammoth n.


    Majority of the time, the woman trying to give birth shrivelled up and died, failing to sessfully birth an Empyrean Snapper. And even when there was a sessful birth, the Empyrean Snapper would generally be birthed with some gic defects.


    The greater the umtion of the parents, the lower the number of defects that the Empyrean Snapper would be born with. Hence, the Cooter n was obsessed with birthing an Empyrean Snapper without any gic defects.


    The only Empyrean Tusk born without any defects was the previous Gann, and that too only thanks to the involvement of Renduldu and Undrakha who used the Empyrean Boar race as fuel for her birth.


    Of course, Gann went a step beyond being just a perfect Empyrean Tusk and became a Supreme Tusk.


    The Cooter n only wanted to birth a perfect Empyrean Snapper. They intended to prepare for the Mystic Grade once there were enough perfectly birthed Empyrean Snappers.


    After so long, with endless losses and resource consumption, there finally arrived a couple with the Buoyant Disease who reached the peak of cultivation, attaining the 10-Life Stage. They also unlocked the fourth stage of their Mystic Mist Art, rted to the Transcendence Stage. With that, they were able tomunicate not only with Empyrean Snappers but also make contact with their n''s Transcendents in the Transcendent Worlds.


    Only after reaching this point did they copte, giving birth to their first child, an Empyrean Snapper birthed without any gic defect, the first of its kind. That child was none other than Wittral.


    At this point in time, Wittral was twenty-three years old, still in human form. The Cooter n wanted to wait until Wittral reached peak strength as a human and then transform into an Empyrean Snapper.


    He was their first step towards the Mystic Grade. And hence, a lot of preparation had been made for his growth and maturity as a human.


    In Sumatra Chronicles, when Wittral came across Resha, both were at the peak of the Body Stage and were evenly matched. The Resha at that point possessed the Major Treasures of Attribute and Weapon. Despite that, they were evenly matched.


    It was a show of Wittral''s strength. And In intended to capture him, for through him, Gann would obtain the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator.


    If In were to proceed about this without making use of Wittral, then it would take Gann more than a decade to obtain the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator. There was also a decent chance of failure, as too many variables existed in such a ce.


    Even though In could guarantee sess with his skill set, he couldn''t spend all his time on Gann. Even if Gann could reach the Life Stage, her strength would only be a notch inferior to the Resha from Sumatra Chronicles.


    That level of strength meant nothing before a peak Boar King who had activated all one hundred Natures of his Astral Chart.


    In was adamant about obtaining the Major Treasure of Attribute, for his n to face the Boar King would only work with that in his possession. Otherwise, as long as the Boar King devours a Zinger Queen from the Dieng Canyon, he would be able to counter In''s abilities easily.


    There were three Zinger Queens at the Dieng Canyon. If one is killed, a new one would be birthed to take its ce.


    Therefore, the only way to ensure In''s power truly poses harm to the Boar King was by obtaining the Major Treasure of Attribute. He had zero intentions of allowing anyone else to im it.


    Hence, he intended to make Gann obtain the Tertiary Nature of Cultivator as quickly as possible and head to the Brimgan Empire to prepare for the Second Major Disaster and grab the Major Treasure of Attribute by its end.


    Capturing Wittral was the key to it all.


    Wittral and Resha encountered each other at a location close to the Guna Caves. Wittral had been active in the region to grow further. Hence, based on that, In hoped to discover clues regarding him by arriving at Leh Ind, which was the first among the list of inds where Wittral could be.


    Wittral wasn''t here, but information about him was present in Ralral''s data. He was currently at an ind eight days journey from Leh Ind, which was near enough, considering In had a time limit of eighty-six days.


    ''There are two masters at the 6-Life Stage guarding him. I need to deal with them first if I want to capture Wittral.'' In thought and stared outside, observing the ice had begun to thaw. The Dralh Sea began to glow as it was now nighttime.


    He exited the Sumatra Ship and stared at the glowing sea, "I need to prepare a lot."


    "Time to grind!"
