19 minutes!
Once his toes were devoured by the Celestial Boar's Unlimited Predator, Resha kept watch of the time as he deactivated his State of Harmony, watching the Biome Bombs bounce Zinger Shrieks onto the dome formed by the Unlimited Predator.
They could perform the Skill of Piezo Resonance without issues, as the Celestial Boar had focused most of its attention on the Quip guardian. This was their best bet, since their goal was to stall for time and only attack Brangara after he had been mentally inhibited once again.
Primary Nature-Perfect Inertial Gravity!
Resha exhaled softly and focused on the ivory sand forming Kalahatra Desert, making it assume a gentle flow. Slowly, the flow intensified, generating a buoyancy effect on the Attributed Region Slabs dropped by Inala.
These slabs slowly moved like ships on the ivory sand and surrounded the Unlimited Predator dome. A maze had been erected in the region, with Brangara trapped in the centre.
Following that, a stream of ivory sand melted into a stream of bone and gushed into the sky like a geyser, brimming with his psychokinesis and External Inertial Gravity. It coiled around in the sky like a serpent, accumulating the inertia of motion as Resha continued to increase its density.
He was preparing for the upcoming fight. Currently, the bone serpent in the sky was merely a dense object. In terms of density, it wasn't even close to the Attributed Region water. However, that was only at present. Things will change once Resha activates his State of Harmony.
"I will keep bombarding him until the damage stacks upon his Astral World." He used the Skill of Puppetry to manipulate four bone serpents in the sky, continuing to increase their length.
Each bone serpent swerved through his Spirit Weapon range, coiling across the space to fill it to the brim. Soon, his spot looked like a blob of bone, densely packed to the extreme.
His Empyrean Supreme form spanned a height of 8.6 kilometres. At the 4-Life Stage, his Spirit Weapon range spanned 720 metres radially from his body surface. Therefore, it allowed each bone serpent to span hundreds of kilometres long as they coiled around this ginormous entity.
As Resha prepared the Attributed Region Maze, Barla had stuffed her Pranic Beast form's stomach to the limit with body parts of the Transcendent Eater. She was currently generating Prana at the peak capacity of her 10-Life Stage Empyrean Boar King form.
Assuming her human form, she scaled up a flight of bone stairs and arrived atop an Attributed Water Slab. This was one located in the centre, allowing her to stare at the Unlimited Predator dome in closeup. "It looks...annoying."
She didn't even understand what she was saying anymore. Her memories had been completely twisted to the extent she treated Brangara as her most hated enemy. And ever so subtly, the Transcendent Eater's control over her continued to steer her in this direction, allowing her to recover her mental capacity the more she fought.
This way, she could think and innovate on her own, all while treating Brangara as her enemy. As she observed the Unlimited Predator dome, a Biome Bomb that had sprouted four tendrils of Prana to use as legs climbed up her shoulder, shrunk itself to fist-size and perched upon her ear like an earphone.
Mystic Royal Art-Universal Slip!
Mystic Royal Art-Zinger Shriek!
The Zinger Shriek contained the state of events transpiring within the Unlimited Predator dome, allowing Barla to keep full track of the situation, "Root, huh? He's strong. But his inexperience is apparent. He's fighting like a student who has been taught a few tricks."
'If he had a decent amount of experience, he could hold his ground better.' Just as Barla had the thought, all her senses flared up. Goosebumps appeared on her skin, almost causing her a rash as she turned around to stare at the Empyrean Supreme, seeing the four bone serpents, 'No, it's not this. This is powerful, but not what is triggering my detection means to such an extent.'
Her eyes darted across the place before she stared up at the sky, failing to notice anything. However, slowly, something akin to the sun began to appear, gradually growing bigger.
It was in the shape of a cone, poised like a drill, positioned at an altitude of around 170 kilometres from the surface. Destructive energy convulsed within the cone. It didn't move out like a beam as before. Instead, it revolved nonstop, assisted by a central pillar of Rirenal that looked pretty similar to a turbine.
As the blades of the turbine spun, they guided the swirling destructive energy, streamlining them and focusing their entirety onto the tip. There was a small hole at the flat side of the cone, from where the Rirenal could escape moments before impact.
Minor Treasure-Kinesis Beyblade!
The one charging up this attack was none other than Boul Brimgan, having finished refining the Rutham of a second Minor Treasure of Kinesis Beyblade into Rirenal. Currently, there were two spheres on the surface.
One of them acted as the base for psychokinesis to prop Boul Brimgan at this altitude. The second one was the base for the Kinesis Beyblade forming the central structure of the cone. Prana continued to pour out of his being and funnel into the cone nonstop, increasing its size.
At the moment Barla stared up, the cone spanned a height of one kilometre. Ten seconds later, it had reached a height of two kilometres. Steadily, Boul Brimgan poured 3000 units of Prana into the cone every second, making it more and more threatening with every second that ticked past.
The hairs across Barla's body stood on end by now as she stared at the attack being prepared by Boul Brimgan. Taking advantage of the time being bought by the Quip Guardian, both Boul Brimgan and Resha were charging up for their strongest attacks.
Of course, they weren't planning to attack alone, for even such an attack wouldn't damage Astral World. However, things would change if they were to pair it with Astral Puncture. Barla obtained the complete picture as she observed the cone radiating in the sky as it grew bigger and bigger, 'In terms of destructive potential, this will outclass a Bolt of Transcendence. It's the most violent form of psychokinesis that Prana could generate.'
As long as Barla times her attack correctly, they will manage to damage the third Astral World...no. As she observed Resha, Barla felt that they could succeed in damaging the fourth Astral World too. That was bound to weaken Unlimited Predator to a decent extent.
At the same time, chains flew out of the Influenced Region of Armoury, wrapped around the tusks of the Empyrean Supreme, and extracted their mineral composure.
A couple of chains wrapped around the Transcendent Eater and extracted some sort of mineral from it. It did the same to Barla, Yennda, Yahard Tusk, and even the immobile Royal Zinger.
An ivory chain landed on an Attributed Region Slab and felt around, finding nothing useful since it was merely densely clumped water. It was unable to recognise the water as a mineral that could be built into a Human Avatar, which was the condition it followed to obtain Spirit
Weapons.
One of the chains wrapped around the four Minor Treasures of Spirit Puppet and retracted them into the Armoury. These Minor Treasures were created by Virala and were fully subjected to the traits of a Mystic Human.
Hence, only a fellow Mystic Human could use them, which was why Blola was unable to use them. Even if he made contact with them, the Minor Treasures of Spirit Puppet refused to fuse
with his body.
For a moment, he wanted to keep them, but soon, he changed his mind. Armoury was capable of using all Spirit Weapons, since it was just a mass of psychokinesis. Thereby, it was better to leave the four guns in Armoury's custody.
Seated within Armoury, Pet was influencing it to actively prepare Spirit Weapons to face Brangara. Until now, Armoury just behaved according to a basic set of instructions and passively hunted everything in its vicinity.
It typically showered Spirit Weapons onto the target, used the chains to extract minerals from the fallen targets, and collected all the Spirit Weapons it had thrown out. Majority of the times, the Spirit Weapons weren't even suitable for subduing the target.
But now, Grehha could pilot it. Currently, Pet was recording all the available Spirit Weapons onto a Bone Slip, so that he could be perfectly prepared. Following that, a suitable group of Spirit Weapons were gathered, charged up to the brim, and positioned towards the Unlimited Predator dome, ready to be fired.
"Fuooh!" Blola felt his head spin as he was turned into a generator. Dozens of Biome Bombs were popping out of his body every second, following which they latched onto a carnivorous flow of their choice and absorbed Prana from the latter.
However, the moment he stared at the Royal Zinger and noticed the latter's fingers begin twitching, Blola was relieved, 'Inala's recovery has hastened. Good!'
12 minutes!
Eight minutes had passed since Brangara had recovered mentally. The situation within
Unlimited Predator dome had leaned in his favour, but not by much. The Quip Guardian had lost about thirty percent of its strength and was steadily losing its foothold faster and faster.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
The crisp footsteps of Barla reverberated with imposing might as she scaled up a flight of bone stairs erected by Resha, leading her to the top of the Unlimited Predator dome. Prana gradually circulated faster and faster through her body as she gazed up at the sky, noticing the cone had reached a length of twenty kilometres by now, 'It has enough power now.'
She didn't attack immediately, but instead stared in a certain direction, observing the duo of
Yennda and Yahard Tusk, watching a golden miniature figurine resembling Brandal Brimgan
be covered by cracks and then...
It shattered!
'Good!' She grunted as a powerful presence erupted out of Yahard Tusk, causing violent Prana
waves to coil around him, brimming with mental insanity capable of turning anyone below
the Mystic Grade insane.
"He's ready now." Muttering as such, she activated her ability.
State of Harmony-Astral Puncture!
