I'll Surpass The MCchapter 373: transcendent objects

It was unknown how many Major Treasures existed on Sumatra Continent, but they never revealed their existence, remaining buried deep in the land.

To become a Transcendent is to transcend the plane of existence and the laws governing it. A Minor Treasure and a Major Treasure functioned with rules beyond the power system operating on Sumatra Continent.

They could be considered as Transcendent Objects.

When a Minor Treasure appears, it affects its surroundings lightly. Typically, a Pranic Beast race gets there, drawn by this mysterious presence, and lives there. Over time, Mutants begin appearing among the race in large numbers, with the Secondary Nature created under the Minor Treasure's influence.

Eventually, their intelligence grows enough that they begin searching for Free Humans to make a Ravaged Tribe and evolve.

Evolution happens once the Ravaged Tribe becomes Clansmen. Typically, the evolved race would get rid of the Clansmen, since they no longer serve any use to this race. They would continue to accumulate strength until they reach a point where they could create another Ravaged Tribe.

After all, only when a Ravaged Tribe becomes Clansmen do the associated Pranic Beast race evolve.

The reason both the Mammoth Clan and Cooter Clan maintained their respective Clansmen was that they reached the end of natural evolution. Hence, there was no longer any use in creating another Ravaged Tribe for them.

As a result, they used their Clansmen for a variety of purposes, with the primary goal being propagation and the ultimate goal being to reach the Mystic Grade. Both Empyrean Tusks and Empyrean Snappers depended on their Clansmen to create their progeny.

It was an evolution brought about by the concept of survival of the fittest. There were fewer risks with a Clansman giving birth, since the actions would be subtle, they occupied less space, and could be protected in safety.

If an Empyrean Tusk were to bear a child, there were too many factors that could go wrong due to their massive bodies. These massive bodies were so energy-taxing that it might be impossible for an Empyrean Tusk to accumulate enough energy for the progeny's growth.

Hence, things became as they are.

It could be said that there were Minor Treasures along the path taken by the Empyrean tusks to reach their current step of evolution.

Some time at some point in history, the unevolved version of Empyrean Tusks came under the influence of a Minor Treasure to gain enough intelligence as an Iron Grade Pranic Beast and make preparations to reach the Silver Grade.

Major Treasures were similar to Minor Treasures, but the degree of their influence on the Sumatra Continent was more potent.

From the time Sumatra Continent emerged, when all Pranic Beasts were Beginner Iron Grade and Free Humans remained at the Spirit Stage without any cultivation techniques, there existed Mystic Empyrean Tentacles.

And obviously, not every Mystic Empyrean Tentacle managed to become a Transcendent. There was a possibility one of the failures became a Major Treasure.

Countless readers of Sumatra Chronicles predicted that the Seat of Transcendence was indeed created through the failure of a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle failing to reach the Transcendence Stage. It had never been proved.

Minor Treasures were created from the failures of Pranic Beasts and Humans in the Iron and Silver Grades in becoming Transcendents. Similarly, Major Treasures were created from Pranic Beasts and Humans in the Gold and Mystic Grades failing to become Transcendents.

Typically, Minor Treasures influenced the lifeforms in its vicinity, from trees to Pranic Beasts. In that vein, Major Treasures influenced the terrain.

In Sumatra Chronicles, at the end of the Second Major Disaster, when Resha obtains the Attribute, he comes to learn of the existence of the Brimgan Founder and the secrets regarding when a Minor Treasure and Major Treasure reveal themselves to the world.

When a Minor Treasure completes influencing the lifeforms in its region, when the changes it can bring reach zero, it would unleash a pillar of light and emanate pulses of energy that would draw in lifeforms from farther away.

As for why it does that, Resha was unable to figure it out. Information regarding it wasn't available in Sumatra Chronicles.

Similarly, when a Major Treasure completes influencing the terrain surrounding, it would finally decide to reveal itself. And until it reveals itself, unless one had luck rivalling the heavens, they would never come across a Minor Treasure Major Treasure.

Deep underground the Brimgan Empire was a region that had been steadily terraformed by the Major Treasure of Attribute for tens of thousands of years. And once it was ready, it would make its presence known.

'It's a place where even the current Boar King can lose his life.' Inala thought, trying his best to recall the events surrounding the Second Major Disaster from Sumatra Chronicles, 'I need to make full preparations and arm myself to the teeth. Otherwise, forget getting the Attribute, I'll simply die a dog's death.'

Due to Attribute's nature, it amplified and made the terrain's conditions more inherent. The secret of the lakes would be made more potent. Typically, a terrain fully modified by a Major Disaster becomes dangerous enough to claim a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast's life.

There were no naturally occurring regions on the continent that were dangerous enough to endanger a Mystic Grade Pranic Beast.

'Unless he's at the 5-Life Stage, the Boar King wouldn't be immune to the terrain under the Brimgan Empire.' Inala thought. Of course, that was why the Boar King was such a ridiculous existence.

Even regions capable of killing Mystic Grade Pranic Beasts were of no issue to the Boar King as long as he increased his cultivation. And of course, when he is lured by the Major Treasure of Attribute's presence and observes the terrain modified by it, the Boar King discovers that even on Sumatra Continent, there were places that could claim his life.

Intrigued and pressured by it, the Boar King truly focuses on cultivation and blazes through the ranks of the Life Stage.

And now, whether it be Inala or Resha or the rest of the reincarnates, they would be battling for the Attribute in such a place. 'No matter what, the Attribute will become mine.'

"It seems you have a place in mind, Amita," Wittral spoke upon seeing how Inala seemed familiar with the place.

Of course, Inala had a lot of knowledge regarding the place from Fhoong Brimgan's data. Through that, he had a better idea of what to do in the Brimgan Empire to get access to the house of his need.

'When the Attribute reveals itself, it would create ten channels of entry in total.' Inala thought, his expression serious, 'All of them form in water bodies in and around the Brimgan Empire, which makes it hard to determine the exact position.'

The Second Major Disaster was a race towards the Major Treasure of Attribute. And the longer one delays, the lower their chance of getting the Attribute. Even a minute of delay meant a loss. Therefore, the optimal situation would be to present on the area where the channel opens, so that he would fall into the entrance at the first second.

'And in Fentan City, there exists a pond in a certain mansion, which becomes the entrance, the only entrance that can be determined.' Inala had his destination fixed, 'As long as I gain ownership of the place and prevent any entry, I can delay my competitors. That way, my chances will increase.'

'Now, I only hope Orakha hasn't gotten there first.' Thinking as such, Inala smiled towards Wittral, "There's a certain house owned by a member of Royalty."

'He's not a Fhoong Brimgan sympathiser, but I can gain some benefits through him.' He had long since begun concocting a plan of action.
