Ill Surpass The Mc Chapter 227

[ … words ]

After sending the eight thousand people away, Inala addressed the thirty-two thousand people that remained behind, “Now, I noticed that the faces of some of you are a bit disappointed due to the large number of people in this group.”

“But, erase your misunderstanding,” Inala said, “Just because there are fewer people in their Paths doesn’t make theirs rarer and more valuable. And similarly, your path isn’t less valuable because there are many people having affinity to it.”

“All are more or less similar to each other.” He said and motioned towards a building erected by a group of armoured individuals, “When you’re called, come in, one by one.”

Inala brought all the refugees to the smaller side of the settlement and made them stay there. The house was erected in the pathway connecting the two. Two armoured individuals stood outside the house and beckoned for the people to enter in order.

Seated within the house was Inala, accompanied by the Empyrean Zinger King that was perched on his head in miniature form.

Gappu was a fourteen-year-old refugee. He came from a poor household and never tasted fortune throughout his life. His parents worked as servants for a noble family in Ellora City. Their income was minimal, and as a result, none of them had a solid cultivation.

Originally, their situation caused Gappu to lament about his fate. But, their lack of strength was precisely the reason why he and his family survived. He didn’t lose any of his loved ones. Hence, he was part of the group that wasn’t much affected by the war, for his family was alive.

He was nervous upon being called first. But as the armoured individual pointed at him, he had no other choice but to comply.

‘This person must have a scary face.’ He stared at one of the armoured figures, intimidated, but also hyped, ‘One day, I’ll become stronger than them.’

“Enter,” The armoured figure on the right stated curtly and opened the door.

“Mmhm,” Gappu nodded and entered the house, flinching once the door shut behind him. The room spanned an area of eighty square metres. There was a curtain right after the door, blocking a full view of the room.

Gappu parted the curtain and was surprised to see a stunning beauty seated behind a table, dressed in flashy clothes akin to royalty. Donning head to toe in expensive jewellery, adding to her beauty and the regal presence she exuded, Gappu subconsciously prostrated on the floor.

“Take a seat,” A pearl-like voice resounded, making him feel as if his heart melted in response. It was that intoxicating.

“Y-Yes, Your Majesty,” Gappu said nervously and took a seat opposite the breathtaking woman.

“Give me your hand and close your eyes.” The woman said next.

“Y-Yes,” Gappu said, flinching instinctively when the woman held his hand, allowing him to feel its softness, ‘So soft!’

Prime Skill—Quip Tribesman!

The Empyrean Zinger King crawled to his hand as Inala seeped Prana into Gappu’s hand through it, using it as the medium to unleash the Prime Skill he had developed after condensing the data he had stolen until now.

The special Prana unleashed through the Quip Tribesman Prime Skill had a mind of its own as it flowed into Gappu’s bloodstream and stuck onto it.

His ambient Prana resisted this foreign Prana but was instantly swallowed, as this special Prana had the properties of a Prana Bomb imbued in it. Therefore, Gappu’s Prana was merely ammunition for its development.

The blood coursed through his body and reached his heart when the Special Prana—latched onto it—flowed into Gappu’s Spirit Container.

“Keuk!” Gappu felt an ache in his chest for a couple of seconds. Immediately after, warmth pervaded his being, making him feel a bit stronger as his Prana values doubled. Well, he originally had three Prana. It now became six Prana.

Gappu’s Spirit Container transformed, resembling Inala’s Stage 1—Jaw—transformation. With that, Gappu was no longer a Free Human, having now become a Ravaged Tribesman, part of the Quip Tribe.

His growth would currently be as follows. Unlike Free Humans who had to carefully build their Spirit Containers one after another to reach a hundred in total, Gappu was like a Pranic Beast.

He no longer had to build a Spirit Container, as his Spirit Container was fully built already. As long as he trains, his Spirit Container will grow stronger.

And when he becomes an adult, i.e., reaches maturity, he’ll enter the Body Stage. Usually, this was the endpoint for other Ravaged Tribesmen—possessing hundred Prana at their peak.

Only after repeated evolutions would they finally open a pathway to progress further in the Body Stage. This was only because of the limited information through which a Pranic Beast created its Ravaged Tribe.

That wasn’t the case for Inala who was equipped with data to the most minute of levels, especially about evolutions of the Ravaged Tribe according to various situations, all collated in the Rockatrice’s Prana.

Even the Rockatrice didn’t know that, for the minor changes couldn’t be observed. But these changes influenced its Prana, which meant the associated data was stored in its skull now.

Using that, Inala condensed a complete path of evolution for the Quip Tribe.

As long as Gappu trains and reinforces his Spirit Container enough, he’ll enter the Body Stage. There wouldn’t be a breakthrough as in the case of Free Humans or Mammoth Clansmen who will have to fuse all hundred Spirit Containers into a collective whole to reach the Body Stage.

His Spirit Container was already a collective whole, capable of holding a hundred Prana. Therefore, once his Spirit Container becomes sturdy enough, it’ll begin growing, allowing him to accumulate more than a hundred Prana.

And at the same time, he’ll awaken his Primary Nature.

Once in the Body Stage, he’ll be able to take on his Ravaged Tribe form. Unlike other Ravaged Tribes that could take on their Ravaged Tribe forms at the Spirit Stage, a Quip Tribesman could only assume their Ravaged Tribe form upon reaching the Body Stage.

Inala was very particular about that. Because, transforming in the Spirit Stage simply shortened one’s lifespan. As a result, a Ravaged Tribesman lived for at most two decades.

Mammoth Clansmen could transform into a Pranic Beast—that they fused their Spirit Container with—once they reached the Body Stage. Inala applied the same principle here. The result?

Upon reaching the Body Stage, Gappu would be able to assume his Ravaged Tribe form, which was a replica of Inala’s Stage 1—Jaw—transformation.

This was where the fun began, as upon reaching the Body Stage, Gappu would awaken his Primary Nature and gain solid strength.

His lifespan would only range between forty to sixty years, but in contrast, at the peak of the Body Stage, he’ll possess four-hundred-eighty Prana, a staggering amount equivalent to Intermediate Iron Grade Pranic Beasts.

This quantity of Prana, coupled with his Primary Nature would make him a strong cultivator. After all, the Primary Nature of the Quip Tribe was pretty special.

Primary Nature—Parasitic Immune System!
