Chapter 762: Accum! Accum! Accum!
The reason Vara Accum was so powerful was for an extremely simple, but broken reason. It was a material-based Nature but behaved like an energy-based Nature.
It became stronger when stacked!
Energy-based Natures became stronger as a cultivator progressed through the Life Stage. Material-based Natures had a material density limit, beyond which they would lose their structural integrity and experience some sort of chemical reaction.
This chemical reaction would transform the material, causing the cultivator's Human Avatar to implode on its own. It was why many incomplete cultivation techniques resulted in Free Humans being unable to progress beyond a certain level in the Life Stage.
The Brimgan Empire addressed this issue by refining the mineral to improve its physical characteristics, which was the purpose of Mystic Kinesis Art. Moreover, they refined the mineral, Kirenal and created Rutham to be as malleable and ductile as possible.
Even then, the Spirit Weapons they used didn't gain any boost through their Life Stage stack. Only their psychokinesis gained power from the stack. Every Free Human cultivation technique worked on attaining similar solutions.
After all, even with limitations, material-based Natures were stronger.
However, the case was different for the Empyrean Boar King thanks to Astral Chart, one that allowed Brangara to stack as many energy-based Natures as he wanted.
The Nature of Blessed Inheritance allowed the Royal Guard to faintly emulate this characteristic. Vara Human Avatar Free Humans at the Silver Grade had the Primary Nature of Gracious Inheritance, which allowed them to activate only one Nature at a time.
The Royal Guard could activate multiple Natures at a time. However, they cannot stack the Natures, for that was only possible through Astral Chart or Astral World.
But in Narkahamy's case, he researched and developed the usage of his Secondary Nature of Voracious Nature, activating it every time he consumed a body of YoriBuntara. And every time he consumed her body, he gained a Nature of Empyrean Boar Transformation.
He didn't realise it, but he was progressing in the same direction that Brangara had taken in the past, when he was forced to swallow the hearts of his brethren. His Human Avatar was gradually amassing a large number of Gold Grade Natures, their influence superimposing upon each other that eventually resulted in a qualitative change.
Empyrean Boar evolves into an Empyrean Boar King.
The Tertiary Nature of Vara Accum followed that evolutionary category, upgrading itself the greater it accumulated upon itself. The Nature did have a limit, however attaining that limit basically meant entering the realm of existence the same as the Empyrean Boar King.
Narkahamy had a long path to traverse before he could reach such a level. However, he planned to do everything in his power until he reached that state of existence in the future. It was why he created Vara Accum while keeping in mind the characteristics of the Empyrean Boar race's voracious consumption capabilities.
Empyrean Boar, Boar King, Empyrean Boar King, and Celestial Boar!
All these were brought about because of the consumption and accumulation characteristics of the Empyrean Boar race.
The evidence clearly manifested in him after obtaining Vara Accum. Over time, his Primary Nature of Gracious Inheritance evolved into Blessed Inheritance. His Secondary Nature of Voracious Nature grew from Silver Grade to Gold Grade.
Finally, when he activated all three Natures as a unified whole, he was able to mould the influence generated by all the Natures in his Human Avatar into a compounded effect. Depending on how he moulds it, the resultant effect can be superior to a Nature at the same Grade.
Narkahamy only had experience with Iron Grade Natures, as they were available in plenty for purchase in the Varahan Empire, allowing him to freely experiment with them as he pleased.
Blessed Influence!
It was the name of the ability created through a combined activation of his three Natures. Currently, he could create a total of five Blessed Influences in a Vara Human Avatar-Stealth, Ring Blade, Manoeuvre, Recovery, and Contact.
They were all created using a combination of commonly available Iron Grade Natures in the Varahan Empire. Of them, the Blessed Influence of Stealth was primarily used by the Terrorists of Talamas.
The central Iron Grade Nature used to obtain this was the Petrified Geese's Statue. Forty Natures of Statue were required, alongside three more Natures to result in the Blessed Influence of Stealth. The limitation of this was that one Human Avatar could only maintain one Blessed Influence.
As a result, the Terrorists had to operate as a group wherever they went. The Blessed Influence of Stealth was created to be seeped into a Spirit Weapon, allowing one individual to mask the presence of multiple people.
Since they wouldn't need to control the Spirit Weapon and only needed to pour Prana to maintain the effect of the Blessed Influence, the efficiency drop of the Spirit Weapon's functions wasn't a cause for concern.
Cultivators with a Vara Human Avatar could activate only one Nature-stored in their Human Avatar-at a time. This gave the Terrorists a serious advantage, as they could activate a Nature atop a Blessed Influence.
Moreover, the effect of all five Blessed Influence far outclassed most Iron Grade Natures. Only extremely destructive Iron Grade Natures such as the Bludder's Eddy Blade were stronger.
Narkahamy intended to continue improving upon them, for which he purchased information from the Wean Clan through YoriBuntara. Everything that YoriBuntara had purchased for the past four years was for his sake.
Secondary Nature-Voracious Nature!
