Chapter 601 Who Are You?
Each side of the hexagon chamber spanned a length of 200 metres. The walls and ground seemed to be made out of a material resembling lava that had solidified, one through which water had precipitated through for millions of years to form crystalline structures.
The terrain was rugged and didn't seem anything too special. But the moment Inala kicked an outgrowth, he understood upon seeing his leg swell up. It was part of the Influenced Region, and hence, the material density resulted in its structural strength being on par with an Iron Transcendent.
He crouched before a stalactite and began to scratch it, intending to scrape some soil for testing later. His opponent stood afar and observed him in nervousness. Actually, Inala was more nervous than the latter but was just acting bizarrely to throw the latter's mental state out of sync.
Once his opponent is unnerved, Inala would gain the advantage. The reason he was using psychological tactics was simple. The Comb was neither sensing the presence of the competitors nor their strength.
It was judging based on a simple parameter—can the combatants kill each other? And it judged this based on the influence carried in the Prana of the Ravaged Tribesman.
Their Primary Nature would obviously accumulate influence on the cultivator, which would be felt on their Prana. The Major Treasure of Pet was able to create Nectar, a substance capable of affecting living beings, a characteristic exclusive to Minor Treasures. But as a Major Treasure, it achieved this through the Phells.
As its influence was able to reach the combatants, the Comb selected the combatants based on how the influence in their bodies reacted to external influence—from the Comb.
Based on this, it searched for combatants who seemed capable of killing each other, irrespective of their strength. Basically, what this meant for Inala was the fact that even if his opponent seemed weaker than him, his chances of killing Inala were the same as Inala killing him.
On paper, both were capable of equally killing each other. It was why Inala became nervous. His opponent probably had some sort of power capable of targeting Inala before he could grow in Grade.
Moreover, the Natures of all cultivators at the Ravaged Federation were complex due to the fusion between multiple Pranic Beast genes. As a result, every single Ravaged Tribesman was no different from a miniature Orakha.Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m
The Gold Grade Ravaged Tribesmen who had been alive for more than a millennium like Pettenac might very well be just like Orakha, possessing a Compound Nature.
"Hehe, this is fun." Inala stared at his opponent, "Did you know that feeding this mineral to the Phell increases their body size? When we eat those Phells, we can experience a diluted effect of the Nectar."
"Something like that is possible?" Though he was on guard against Inala, hearing such a shocking statement made him lose focus for a moment.
"Seems that way," Inala nodded and pointed at a stalactite, "The green-edged ones can faintly amplify the strength of a Phell. All it does upon consumption is give us diarrhoea. The blue ones make us dizzy and suppress the effects of Nectar."
"The red ones are the good stuff," Inala said and pointed at a spot right behind the man, causing him to subconsciously turn in the direction when two strings of Prana jutted out of the ground and touched his feet, sucking his Lifespan rapidly.
