Through the Secondary Nature of Immune Influence, Gappu could latch onto a Slump Lizard's body once his claws dig into the latter. Following that, he would be able to influence the Slump Lizard's behaviour and decision-making.
If his strength is sufficient, he'll be able to influence the Slump Lizard and control it like a mount, able to ride it. The degree of influence is entirely dependent on the target's strength.
Influencing Iron Grade Pranic Beasts was possible, with Beginner Iron Grade and Intermediate Iron Grade Pranic Beasts being the easiest to influence. The success rate for Advanced Iron Grade and Expert Iron Grade Pranic Beasts would be vastly lower.
It was pretty much impossible to influence a Silver Grade Pranic Beast. But, Immune Influence was special, in that Inala took inspiration from Slump Lizards in their ability to stack Natures on a target.
Meaning, Quip Tribesmen could also stack their Secondary Natures of Immune Influence on a target. With enough of them latching onto a target, controlling even a Silver Grade Pranic Beast was possible.
This was Inala's plan to control different Prana Beasts in the future, especially those that had mutated, and use them against the Boar King.
Mystic Bone Art—Mystic Skill Creator!
This was a cheat-like Skill that allowed Inala to accomplish what he had done. As long as he had a clear goal in mind and possessed the relevant data, he could create any ability of his choice. He didn't even have to understand the data. It only needed to exist in his mind.
Using it, he created the Silver Immunity Art that upon cultivation, would create the Primary Nature of Parasitic Immune System and cause mutation with a small degree of chance. Upon success, the Quip Tribesman will obtain the Secondary Nature of Immune Influence.
The Quip Tribesmen wouldn't face any side effects upon transforming or using their powers. After all, unlike the Rooster Tribe, the Quip Tribe was complete as a Ravaged Tribe.
Basically, the end evolutionary point reached by a Ravaged Tribe was where the Quip Tribe currently stood.
When a Quip Tribesman manages to enter the Life Stage, that would be when the Quip Tribe becomes elevated to Clansmen status. Unfortunately, Inala couldn't find a solution to reach that status.
Reaching the peak of the Ravaged Tribe was the limit to the path Inala had devised. Whether or not the Quip Tribe became Clansmen was up to luck, fate, and chance. As long as they keep evolving and accumulating minor genetic variables, there will come a day when one of them will enter the Life Stage and succeed.
Inala had no control over that process. It wasn't easy to obtain Clansmen status after all.
But, had the Empyrean Zinger King been capable of taking on a human form, Inala could have proceeded in the same route as the previous Gannala and created Clansmen through descendants. As that wasn't possible, the peak as a Ravaged Tribe was the Quip Tribe's limit.
Gappu snapped out of his daze as all information regarding the Quip Tribe's evolutionary path was inscribed in his mind. He became excited upon realising the powerful Primary and Secondary Natures he could obtain as long as he worked hard.
"I'll work hard!" He exclaimed, hyped for his future.
"All the best!" The gorgeous woman nodded in response and motioned for him to exit, "Stay within the settlement for now and wait for the rest to gather. Once everyone gains this power, I'll lead you all to your new home."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Gappu nodded chirpily and entered the larger segment of the settlement. He took a seat in a corner and began cultivating, getting accustomed to the Silver Immunity Art.
[Inala! The Mudropper's here!]
After he turned twenty Free Humans into Quip Tribesmen, an Empyrean Zinger Scout informed him through a shout. He got up and exited the settlement, staring at a large bone slab being carried by a dozen Empyrean Zinger Commanders.
Seated upon it was a large frog-like existence, covered with a grey shell similar to a clam. It was the Mudropper.
A Mudropper was capable of jumping once a day. And with each jump, it could traverse a kilometre. This was its mobility limit, the reason it almost went extinct. After all, it had zero combat capability.
It was the most mysterious race in Sumatra Continent, for the Mudropper was the only Pranic Beast race with the power to create the Sandy-Grey Void.
But despite possessing such a power, they remained on Sumatra Continent, the reason unknown. If not for the fact that the Mudropper before him was probably the last of its kind, he would have used Empyrean Extraction on it already to obtain all its secrets.
He planned to do it later, once the Mudropper births more of its kind. Hence, he was rooting for its success.
Unlike the other Silver Grade Pranic Beasts that had to kill the majority of their Ravaged Tribes, the Mudropper's Ropper Tribe didn't face a single casualty. Because, their home was located underneath the Sandy-Grey Void ring.
Hence, they never had to fear being discovered by the Centingers.
Therefore, Inala sending two thousand people to its doorsteps was a fat bribe, especially since they were enthusiastic about the process. It was the first time the Mudropper saw Free Humans being enthusiastic to become part of its Ravaged Tribe, a result of Inala's successful brainwashing.
And through the Empyrean Zinger Scouts, he communicated with it, asking for deeper cooperation. Curious about what he had in mind, the Mudropper asked the Empyrean Zingers to carry it to Inala.
[Tell me the terms.]
"Alright," Inala nodded and communicated using its language, "I need two things from you. In response, I'll create a perfect cultivation technique for the Ropper Tribe."
[Tell! Tell!]
"First, create a terrain similar to the Dieng Canyon here. Relocate the Parute Trees to their peaks." He stared at the poker-faced Mudropper, "You can do it, right?"
[Easy, peasy. But I want fifty Parute Trees.]
"Done," Inala nodded, happy. He then created a Prana Bomb and asked, "Second, can you stuff your grey sand in this and make it as such the effect of the Sandy-Grey Void is unleashed only when it shatters?"
[Easy, peasy. But your payment isn't enough for that.]
"I'll create Skills for the Ropper Tribe," Inala replied.
[One Skill per Prana Bomb.]
"Isn't that expensive?" Inala frowned.
[Your Prana Bomb has a lot of space inside. I can stabilise it using my power. So, each Prana Bomb is worth a lot.]
"Deal!" Inala accepted the terms, "I'll visit the Ropper Tribe once I'm done here."
[I'll be waiting.]
The Mudropper left, carried by the group of Empyrean Zinger Commanders. It continued to speak with them, giving them a lot of tasks, all necessary to construct the Dieng Canyon in this region.
Once it left, he frowned, 'As I thought, the Mudropper is the true ruler of this region. It knows everything that has happened here.'
'I wonder what secrets it holds.' Thinking as such, he let out a chuckle and returned to the house, continuing to increase the population of his Quip Tribe.
