Chapter 577 Virala Vs Virala
The moment Virala purposefully moved in the direction opposite to the 102nd Empyrean Tusk, Gannala became aware that he could sense the existence of his other body. Hence, in accordance to their plan, the 102nd Empyrean Tusk grabbed the Mammoth Clansman Virala's Nature Weapon form that popped out of her Tertiary Nature slot and threw it into the tunnel at her feet with all her might.
The Nature Weapon flew through the tunnel while Gannala purposefully moved underground with enough activity that Virala would be able to sense her approach through the senses of his Mystic Ewworm and evade.
To avoid getting unnecessarily close to the Empyrean Tusks, Virala could only evade towards a safer spot. Gannala's direction of approach narrowed down the spot Virala would flee towards, making it easier to target the tunnel's exit accordingly.
The fastest way to neutralise a weasel-like Virala was to unleash his Mammoth Clan body on him. Once the distance between the two reduces below 180 metres, their minds would synchronise. In the worst-case scenario, it would cause an implosion.
But considering the robustness of Virala's body, there was a higher chance he would live and only have a destroyed mind. Hence it was a solid gamble.
It was too late to evade as the minds of the two began to synchronise. But right as it started, it stopped, not because some mysterious ability took effect, but because there were no longer two minds to synchronise.
Mystic Nature Art!
"Tch!" Gannala stared at the ground splashed with brain matter and observed the tiny hole beside it. She stared at the figure of the Mammoth Clansman Virala who assumed human form, "Did it work?" New novel chapters are published on
"No...!" The Mammoth Clansman Virala grunted in pain before clutching his head as he collapsed to the ground, "He shattered his brain in the instant a connection formed, as if he'd prepared for the possibility already. The trigger to his brain's explosion was the formation of a connection with me."
The greatest function of Mystic Nature Art was the fusion of the heart and Spirit Container, transforming it into a sentient organ capable of wielding Prana. As it could function as a secondary brain, it remained as Virala's backup.
It already had all of Virala's memories. But as it was a secondary brain, it couldn't handle the information load as his primary brain, making it impossible to fight as usual. It was why Virala enacted a planned escape response, heading deep underground in his Mystic Ewworm form.
While waiting for the Mammoth Clan to arrive, Virala prepared for twenty possibilities, out of which Gannala using his other body was the most obvious scenario. In preparation for that, Virala placed a bunch of Spirit Containers in his brain, assembling them in such a way that the moment a connection forms between the two bodies, they would explode and turn the brain into mush.
This way, the connection would be destroyed, since the mind was no more. And at that moment spanning a fraction of an instant when the connection formed, a certain piece of information flowed into the Mammoth Clan Virala's mind.
Virala hid deep underground by taking advantage of his Mystic Ewworm's capability of hiding all traces of itself. Using that opportunity, Prana surged into his destroyed head and began to rebuild it.
In the meantime, the Mammoth Clan Virala clutched his head and roared, following which he unleashed Prana, assuming a certain pose.
"Dammit!" Gannala became alarmed upon seeing his pose as she unleashed a gust of air at him and sent him flying away. She then chased after him and seeped her influence into him, forcefully reverted him to Nature Weapon form and swallowed it.
