I'll Surpass The MC

Chapter 605 Phell Nuke

Chapter 605 Phell Nuke

??Inala spent the next eight months building the Biome Lattice, a three-dimensional net consisting of Gold Biome Bombs that were all connected.

Biome Bombs were able to absorb and transmit Prana/Lifespan. So basically, as long as Inala touches anywhere on this network either physically or through a string of Prana, he was able to absorb all the Prana and Lifeforce accumulated through the entire network.

He was building this for two reasons. First was obviously to accumulate enough Prana and Lifespan to elevate himself to Mystic Grade multiple times, without having to worry about his expenditure. Second was to gather Keys, a ginormous amount of them.

The Biome Lattice was massive, peeking out of the ocean floor in the shape of a dome, stretching for three kilometres in height and spreading out close to forty kilometres.

A Gold Biome Bomb was able to condense four strings of Prana. As all four strings were used to form the network, the Biome Lattice was a passive structure, unable to actively reach out for the Phells. But that wasn't necessary here.

Rather, there was a simpler method to target them. After all, the goal was for their bodies to make contact with the network. Anywhere would do.

The Biome Lattice was solid, closely resembling a diamond in the way the Gold Biome Bombs were packed. So, its structural strength was robust enough to endure a powerful shock, which would happen next.

The Phells were small and there was more than enough free space in the Biome Lattice for them to move freely without coming into contact with the strings of Prana. Some of them came in contact from time to time and died horrible deaths.

The Phells in the vicinity instinctively avoided the strings upon knowing the ill fate of their brethren. So, Inala hadn't gotten anything of value from the Biome Lattice. Instead, the operation costs alone bankrupted him.

'This will change now.' Thinking as such, he placed a thumb-sized Biome Bomb in the centre of the Biome Lattice and hurriedly fled the place.

A few minutes later, the Biome Bomb combusted itself to unleash the presence of a Gold Grade Royal Zinger. The Pranic Beast's presence instantly triggered the Phells into a state of aggression.

There was less than a moment of stillness after the presence release, following which millions of Phells swarmed the region within the Biome Lattice, crowding the place. And obviously, in their aggressiveness, their scale of activity was intense, causing a large number of Phells to come into contact with the strings of Prana.

'First test is a success!' Inala stood at a spot ten kilometres away from the Biome Lattice. Trailing before him was a line created by a series of Gold Biome Bombs connecting each other through Prana strings.

The moment he touches it, he could use this channel to draw in all the Prana and Lifespan gathered by the Biome Lattice. This way, Inala could gather energy without having to risk his life.

'Perfect!' He thought upon absorbing a large volume of Prana and Lifespan, soon feeling difficulties because the influx surpassed the network's transmission capabilities. 'Even this is potent enough.'

The entire Biome Lattice was capable of releasing the Royal Zinger presence. If that happened, maybe all the Phells in a couple hundred-kilometre radius would be lured in. That would destroy the structure itself, which is why he didn't plan on releasing the presence through the Biome Lattice.

Instead, he would send Biome Bombs to the centre of the Biome Lattice from time to time and make them release the Royal Zinger's presence at the Gold Grade. This way, only that Biome Bomb would be destroyed by the Phells.

Otherwise, if enough of them were to detonate in a concentrated spot at the same time, the resulting explosion would be no different from a nuke…

"Right!" Inala felt a maddened urge to bellow in laughter, 'Indeed, I can peacefully store the Phells in a Biome Bomb. And when necessary, I'll make it emit my presence, which would instantly cause them to explode.'

Phells explode the moment the needle on their front stabs their target. Since the entire Biome Bomb was emanating his presence, then simply remaining in the water with the same presence was no different from poking into the enemy, which would result in their explosion.

Unlike the Gravity Bombs that Inala used before, the resultant of this explosion would spill out spores of the Phells, which would cause them to begin growing soon enough, destroying the ecosystem along the way.

In essence, it destroyed all life in the detonated region, similar to a nuke, making it a terrifying weapon. 'I can use them to destroy all water bodies of the Varahan Enclave overnight.'

Inala gradually elevated his strength by absorbing Prana and Lifespan, soon reaching Mystic Grade statue, 'Finally, I've reached this point once again.'

At the Gold Grade, Inala was able to absorb 20 units of Prana per second and two years of Lifespan per second. As the entire Biome Lattice was constructed out of Gold Biome Bombs, the flow rate through the strings of Prana was 20 units of Prana per second.

As he created them while as a male, the Biome Lattice specialised in absorbing Prana, having little efficiency for Lifespan. Currently, Inala didn't have much use for Lifespan other than to elevate his Royal Zinger's Grades, so it wasn't a priority.

A steady amount of Lifespan was also being gathered by the Biome Lattice, so he had no worries in that regard. Now that he had reached the Mystic Grade, Inala was able to absorb 40 units of Prana per second.

Moreover, he could absorb that amount from eight different streams, capable of condensing eight strings of Prana now. Obviously, since his consumption capability had increased, Inala had created fifteen more lines, totalling sixteen lines stretching from the Biome Lattice.

Each of his strings of Prana absorbed Prana from two lines. As he absorbed them nonstop from eight strings of Prana, the amount of Prana coursing through his Spirit Container was significant. Every second, he was absorbing 320 units of Prana.

This was a tremendous number. After all, a Bludder unleashed its Eddy Blade by consuming 300 units of Prana. If Inala had the means, he could spam an Eddy Blade every second. The sheer amount he was gaining was bonkers, especially since it was Gold Grade Prana.

Moreover, this supply would never diminish. The Biome Lattice currently held Prana in the millions from this one action. Only when their reserves drop below a certain level would Inala draw in another batch of Phells.

All these were just insignificant in the face of the true scariness of these eight months of work that Inala had done. He was absorbing 320 units of Prana every second.

When the Spirit Container of a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast generates ten million units of Prana, a piece of Sumatra Gold finishes forming on its heart. "…Damn!"

Inala focused on his heart and could observe a shiny piece forming already, sporting stripes of red and black amidst an overall golden hue. In real-time, its size was increasing. Inala made a short calculation and arrived at a stunning result.

Two Years!

That's how long it would take him to finish condensing a piece of Sumatra Gold. Actually, it was 651 days. But even when approximated, it was a mere two years. That was absurd to the extreme, which was what Inala was facing now.

Honestly, the moment he made the calculation, Inala wanted nothing more than to kidnap Yarsha Zahara, brainwash her, and make her his subordinate. He could easily produce enough Sumatra Gold for her to reach the peak of the Body Stage.

If not for her, Inala would have to search for a Free Human talented enough to fuse Sumatra Gold into their Human Avatar. Inala hadn't seen such an existence apart from Yarsha Zahara, so it was impossible to discover such a talent and grow them from scratch.

But that was just a secondary thought. With enough Sumatra Gold, Inala could dare plan for concepts inconceivable to anyone other than the Royal Zinger.

He could produce a piece of Sumatra Gold in two years. His Biome Bombs from Gold Grade and above could create both grey sand and the Bolt of Transcendence. The Nectar was a substance capable of elevating the genes of a Ravaged Tribesman and Clansman.

'I think I can think of a direction for my progression through the Life Stage.' Inala grinned. Thanks to Mystic Royal Art, Inala could condense bodies for his progression through the Life Stage. But, that would only work when he remains in his base state.

The moment he tries to elevate his Grade, the stack will implode, resulting in his death. So, instead of wasting his Tertiary Nature on a dynamic version of the Nature of Cultivator, Inala could instead use a Minor Treasure to achieve a stabilisation effect.

As long as his bodies elevate in grade alongside him without causing an implosion, his goal would be achieved. 'I can constantly condense and kill a second body. Then, if I were to use Nectar to stockpile my genes and stabilise it through Sumatra Gold, can I eventually achieve an effect similar to my base state reaching the 10-Life Stage?'

"I can work on this next!" Inala laughed, "Man, I am brimming with ideas!"
