Chapter 159 Orakha Returns
The reason no life could exist on Ennoudu Plains was thanks to the actions of the Mystic Tentacles. It was unknown for how long they existed. Some clues state that they have been there since the birth of Sumatra Continent.
And since the start, they had unlocked the path to Mystic Grade. Every era on Sumatra Continent birthed a Mystic Tentacle.
After a few eras, the then Mystic Tentacle intended to create a new power for its race. In research towards that, it turned towards the power of a Parute Tree.
Even though it was rare, once a cultivator reached the peak of cultivation, they could communicate with their ancestors in the Transcendent World. Through it, the Mystic Tentacles of every era were able to know what was happening in the Transcendent World.
Upon understanding the problems that their race had been facing in the Transcendent World, one fine Mystic Tentacle researched the Parute Tree, knowing very well they were dregs produced from a Transcendent Eater.
Therefore, the Mystic Tentacle created the Ennoudu Plains and caused a Parute Tree to grow in the region, situated at the end of a long tunnel-like cave.
The goal was to birth a Transcendent Eater on Sumatra Continent and steal its power, thereby creating a new race of Mystic Tentacles that possess the abilities of a Transcendent Eater.
Of course, it wasn't a feat that could be completed within its lifespan. Even though Mystic Grade Pranic Beasts have a long lifespan, that was only 10,000 years.
For a Parute Tree to create a Parute Seed, it needed a million years. Therefore, the task was taken up by generation after generation of Mystic Tentacles.
All Parute Trees had an owner. It was because both Humans and Pranic Beasts were able to instinctively sense a lone Parute Tree. That was why the Mystic Tentacles went through great pains to refine the Ennoudu Plains era after era to ensure no life was supported on it.
They used the grey sand from the Sandy-Grey Void to further terraform the region. Things proceeded as planned. The power of a Mystic Tentacle allowed it to perceive the truth of nature. Hence, any plans they create would withstand the test of time.
Finally, it was Renduldu's turn. Upon observing the wilting Parute Tree, he determined it would complete the process only two millennia after his ascension. Therefore, their plan would have to be completed by his successor.
Unfortunately, when Renduldu used his ability to glean details about when his successor would appear, he drew a blank. That meant the next era didn't belong to the Mystic Tentacles but some other race.
It was only for an era though as Renduldu could perceive the reappearance of Mystic Tentacles after that one era.
But that missing era was the most important among them all, for it was when the Parute Seed would appear. The appearance of the Parute Seed meant half the process was done. But, it was futile if there wasn't a Mystic Tentacle to oversee it.
If another Mystic Grade Pranic Beast were to appear, it would eventually sense the Parute seed's presence. There was a stronger possibility of it consuming the Parute Seed to further its own ambitions.
Renduldu took a gamble upon seeing Gannala. He felt the Parute Seed would be helpful for her and eventually assist his race's goals. Hence, he made preparations accordingly.
Once he left for the Transcendent World and returned after two millennia, Renduldu observed the Parute Seed. When he brought the souls of the six reincarnates to Earth, he coded their data in the Parute Seed, knowing through Resha's memories that he would consume the Parute Seed in the future.
