I'll Surpass The MC

Mystic Kinesis Art!

Boul Brimgan watched as his Minor Treasure of Kinesis Feline swallowed an Iron Grade Pranic Beast and shat out everything except its Spirit Container. Through the effects of Mystic Kinesis Art, the Kinesis Feline refined the Spirit Container to form an Elixir in its stomach.

The Elixir generated Prana through its body, and once its body was brimming with Prana, the excess amount flowed into Boul Brimgan. This way, he was able to recover Prana to upkeep his consumption.

He hadn't yet reached a level where his Prana generation surpassed his consumption, but once he has ten Kinesis Felines working for him, that would become a reality. He would have been stronger had he possessed a few more Minor Treasures, but unfortunately for him, they were all destroyed in the Sanctuary.

If not for them, he would have already died, failing to accomplish anyway. But at the end of the day, it was a worthwhile trade, for he finished two of the primary objectives sought after by the Brimgan Empire for eras.

Secondary Nature—Minor Treasure!

Mystic Kinesis Art!

While his Secondary Nature was perfect, the Mystic Kinesis Art was still incomplete. He had barely managed to upgrade Gold Kinesis Art to the Mystic Grade. It would take a while and the support of the Brimgan Empire to make it functional like Mystic Bone Art and Mystic Mist Art.

Once that happens, the Brimgan Empire would become invincible as every Emperor, Empress, and Grand Ministers with 10-Life Stage cultivations would have a Minor Treasure as a Secondary Nature.

Minor Treasures and Major Treasures operated at laws beyond Sumatra. Therefore, the fact that their power itself was a Minor Treasure meant their power had already exceeded the limits of Sumatra.

Currently, Boul Brimgan was one such character. As he continued to travel, he closed in on the group of 38 Empyrean Snappers, observing their sheer speed in the delta formation. It was no different from seeing mountains glide over the land at speeds surpassing a hundred kilometres an hour.

As he approached them, the Cooter Clansmen on the backs of the closest Empyrean Snappers turned to face him. And then, they created cloudy platforms to approach him, stopping at a distance of three hundred metres from him.

A cloudy head formed within earshot of Boul Brimgan and shouted, "State your name and purpose!"

"Boul Brimgan!" He introduced himself, "I'm returning to my home after seeing the appearance of the Major Treasure. It seems the Cooter Clan has the same thought. Can I request a helping hand for the journey?"

The cloudy head turned silent in response, never expecting a Brimgan Royal to ask for help in a situation where his life wasn't threatened or in dire straits. He was faster than them and could reach the Brimgan Empire earlier if he put his mind to it.

But despite that, he wanted their help. A moment's hesitation later, the Cooter Clansman in charge of the cloudy head condensed a Water Slip and sent it flying on a cloud towards the Empyrean Snapper's back.

A Cooter Clansman consumed the Water Slip and relayed the message to the Settlement Leader. The message was relayed from one Settlement to another before soon, the Cooter Clan Chief, Geugeu received it.

"Boul Brimgan?" His eyes lit up as he processed the information, "Considering how he's at the 10-Life Stage, he must either be the Crown Prince or someone ready to inherit the position of Emperor."

"Escort him here," Geugeu passed down the order, "And treat him with respect. Don't offend a powerhouse like him."

"He's…" Geugeu hesitated for a moment before sighing, "Almost as strong as me. And unlike Brandal Brimgan, he's young."

"Yes…" The Cooter Clansman who came to relay the message to Geugeu trembled at the latter's proclamation. It meant that in the future, Boul Brimgan would surpass the Cooter Clan Chief. For a moment, he had thoughts of assassinating Bould Brimgan but curbed the intention upon seeing Geugeu shake his head.

"It's not in our nature to make enemies unnecessarily." Geugeu said with a soft tone, "In the long time we existed, the Cooter Clan and the Brimgan Empire have hardly interacted with each other. So, it doesn't matter if they continue to grow stronger."

'All that wouldn't matter once we hit the Mystic Grade. With Wally, that future looks promising.' He thought with a smile. Wally was Wittral's younger brother.

Before they died, Wittral's parents succeeded in birthing another Empyrean Snapper. During the birth, Wittral's father tried to reach the Transcendence Stage, inviting a Bolt of Transcendence.

He ended up failing though and was erased from existence. But, as he had the Buoyant Disease, until his child was born, his essence was continually funnelled into the forming baby. When the Bolt of Transcendence hit him, the essence became refined and was transmitted in a stronger, more potent form.

Right after she gave birth to Wally, Wittral's mother did the same, trying to become a Transcendent moments before she breathed her last, for she had gone over the limit in birthing a second Empyrean Snapper.

The Bolt of Transcendence hit her and vaporised her too. But through the umbilical cord connecting her and her child, the remainder of the energy in the Bolt of Transcendence was transferred into Wally.

His parents knew they wouldn't survive a Bolt of Transcendence. Instead, they used their bodies to tank the Bolt of Transcendence and try their best to refine it into a form that would become a tonic for their child. And the result of that?

Supreme Snapper—Wally!

It was the birth of an Empyrean Snapper on the same level as the Supreme Tusk Gannala. The Cooter Clan almost went bankrupt to achieve this, having expended most of their resources to support Wally's parents so that they could succeed in giving birth and refining a Bolt of Transcendence.

Five Minor Treasures were also expended in the process, so the losses would have been disastrous had Wally not been born. But now that he had been born, the Cooter Clan was jubilant. After all, even though they were two millennia behind the Mammoth Clan, they finally had a path to the Mystic Grade.

"I'm the Cooter Clan Chief, Geugeu." Geugeu introduced himself to Boul Brimgan once the latter was escorted to his stone house.

"I'm Boul Brimgan, Third Prince of the Brimgan Empire." Bould Brimgan introduced himself, noticing Geugeu's expression become visibly affected in response. It was because even at the 10-Life Stage, Boul Brimgan wasn't the Crown Prince of Emperor. Instead, his status was merely that of the Crown Prince.

'Such a powerhouse isn't on line to the throne?' Geugeu hurriedly controlled himself and motioned for Boul Brimgan to take a seat, "To what do I owe this pleasure?"

"I just wish to rest a little," Boul Brimgan smiled wryly, "There'll be too much chaos once I return, so I wish to recover my strength before then."

"I'll make accommodations for you nearby." Geugeu said, 'If I were to target the Major Treasure, will more people on his level show up to oppose me?'

He didn't reveal his thoughts and watched Boul Brimgan leave. Their conversation was short, because neither party wished to reveal each other's intention but didn't wish to pry into each other's business. After all, both were terrifyingly strong.

Geugeu did face the Boar King alone and didn't die a single time, even if the latter didn't use any Gold Grade Natures and was only at the peak of the Body Stage. It wasn't a feat anyone else had achieved.

Similarly, Boul Brimgan entered a Major Treasure's Influenced Region and made it out alive. The duo instantly recognised the strength and experience in the arsenal of each other and made a prompt decision to avoid conflict.

While the group of 38 Empyrean Snappers headed towards the Brimgan Empire, things at the Varahan Mansion took a strange turn.

"Ack!" Barla screamed in pain as she collapsed to the ground, spitting out her siblings who were in similar states. She reverted to human form and noticed her body was growing weak. Her Prana circulated through her body and began to counterattack the disease, but the propagation of the latter was faster.

Standing beside the six writhing siblings was Yennda, his mood gloomy upon hearing the painful screams that clearly reverberated in his ears. He had only blinked before noticing that his line of sight was at half the usual height.

Prime Skill—Prana Flash!

Prime Skill—Eddy Blade!

Prana erupted out of Yarsha Zahara's back in the form of condensed shockwaves to propel her forward, causing her body to flicker towards Yennda. The direction of shockwaves became tangential to her body and caused her to rotate at terrifying speeds.

Following the Prime Skill of Prana Flash, Prana quickly gathered at her wrists by taking advantage of her rapid spin, condensing a pair of blades that severed Yennda at the hips. In an instant, her figure flickered past Yennda, following which his severed half fell to the ground.

Once she stopped, she craned her hand backward and unleashed another pair of Eddy Blades that severed both of Yennda's arms.

She used the Prime Skill of Prana Flash and flickered towards him. Her right hand transformed into her Sumatra Gold Human Avatar as she plunged it straight through his chest and unleashed a pulse of Prana to locate his Spirit Container before grabbing it.

Her gaze was cold as she glared at Grehha, "I assumed you weren't an enemy."

"Seems I'm still an idiot." Saying so, she yanked out Yennda's Spirit Container and caused his Prana to see out and display the effects of his three Natures. She absorbed them all without hesitation, staring at Yennda in shock, 'Someone like him has three Natures? This is bullshit!'

"Has everything been assigned to you on a gold platter?" She muttered in disgust.
