Chapter 503 The Boar King Rushes Back
?Gaja Enclave!
Seated atop the carcass of a giant Empyrean Tusk was the Boar King, letting out a thunderous burp as he patted his bloated stomach, "Man, I'm getting sick of the taste."
He inspected himself, observing that he had already stabilised at the 3-Life Stage, 'Do I return now? If something were to happen, she would have called me. I've left my power in her four Minor Treasures of Lunchbox. That's enough for her to support herself until my arrival.'
"Then...do I keep growing stronger?" He hesitated, feeling his strength continue to increase as his body digested the Empyrean Tusk's flesh. He stared around, noticing that there were a few more heaps, "If I devour them all, I might be able to enter the 4-Life Stage and possibly make that body attain maturity too. But it might worsen the influences in me..."
Suddenly, the Boar King noticed his skin prickle nonstop, observing goosebumps had formed. He knew what it was immediately, realising that Yarsha Zahara was summoning him back, and judging by the strength of the summon, it signalled extreme urgency, "Something must have happened there."
Boom! nove(l)bi(n.)com
For a moment, he felt weak in his legs, sensing a power capable of threatening his life, only then realising what it was, "This is...a Major Treasure?"
He could feel the pulses unleashed by the Major Treasure of Attribute all the way here. Considering the sheer distance beyond which he could sense it calling for him, the Boar King became terrified upon pinpointing the location where it had appeared, "No, it's in the Brimgan Empire."
The region where the Brimgan Empire had been established could be called a blessed land, one that was abundant with resources. Just officially, there lived over three hundred Gold Grade Pranic Beasts in its surroundings. There might be even more that lived stealthy lives, not revealing themselves to the Brimgan Empire.
Now, all these Gold Grade Pranic Beasts would rush towards the Major Treasure of Attribute, creating an absolute stampede as every single Pranic Beast would do the same. This was merely from the Brimgan Empire's surroundings.
Considering the distance reached by the luring energy pulses of Attribute, billions of Pranic Beasts would be rushing towards it by now. Stuck in the epicentre of the chaos, there was a solid chance his family could be killed during the mayhem.
"I have to return there as quickly as possible." The Boar King had no intentions of saving his strength anymore. A voracious amount of power began to well up in his body, causing his density to increase to unimaginable levels.
Astral Chart—Internal Inertial Gravity X6!
Boom!
The ground of Gaja Enclave cracked in response as the Empyrean Boar King's body shot forth like a train, unleashing farts that were on the level of a volcanic eruption. The Empyrean Boar King used those to propel its body forward, destroying everything in its wake as it rushed forth in a straight line.
Typically, to avoid destroying everything in his wake, the Boar King paid attention to his travel path, paying heed to move in the borders of various Pranic Beast territories. This way, even if he were to move at sonic speeds and beyond, the shockwaves generated by him wouldn't harm the surroundings.
But with his family on the line, the Boar King no longer cared about it as he made a straight line to the Brimgan Empire. His every single leap covered dozens of kilometres, traversing in a matter of seconds.
As he moved, the six Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity synchronised with his body more and more, gradually strengthening his body accordingly to reinforce his motion. In response, his speed reached hypersonic levels and showed no signs of stopping.
When he faced 44 Empyrean Tusks at the Deing Canyon, the Boar King was only using two Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity. Even that made him a monster. And now, at the same cultivation level, by activating six such Natures, he became unstoppable.
Roar!
A Gold Grade Pranic Beast growled in resistance, protecting its brethren as their territory came in the Boar King's path. It barely noticed the latter on the horizon and blinked, observing the Empyrean Boar King was before its face now.
It unleashed an attack by gathering whatever amount of Prana it could muster in that short window, sighing in despair to see that the Empyrean Boar King didn't even flinch at the attack, considering it a mere breeze.
An extension of its hooves, and a gaping hole formed in the Gold Grade Pranic Beast's body. The Empyrean Boar King didn't waste even a single second in the interaction, continuing to run after dispatching such a powerful foe to the afterlife. Opening its mouth once, it swallowed the Gold Grade Pranic Beast's body and sped forth.
Gua!
Suddenly, dozens of Empyrean Tusk baby cries resounded, causing the six activated Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity to scream in response, desperate, unleashing cries for the other party to flee.
'A dozen Empyrean Tusks have been birthed?' The Boar King thought in shock. Had it just been the Attribute, he would have stopped to investigate. But since Yarsha Zahara summoned him, the Boar King had no mood to waste any time, 'I can return here later. They're not going anywhere.'
Making a note of the location of the cries, the Boar King rapidly approached the Brimgan Empire, soon seeing the Lotus Range come in his vision. From the moment goosebumps appeared on his skin to now, only eight hours had spanned past.
The distance that he would have originally traversed for a month was now covered in a mere eight hours, thanks to activating six Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity and being supported by a ginormous biome that generated enough Prana to upkeep his rocket pace.
