Influenced Region—Hidden Eye!

The power of an Influenced Region was directly related to the influence generated by its Major Treasure. The Major Treasure of Attribute gave the characteristics of a Nature to the owner’s Prana.

As the Brimgan Founder became the Major Treasure in a node of water, the Attributed Region was created as a condensed mass of water. The case was the same for the Influenced Regions of Weapon, Pet, and Seat of Transcendence.

With that thought process, one could infer some details about the Major Treasure that created the Influenced Region of Hidden Eye.

Hidden Eye was shaped as an eyeball, could fly, and erased every single cause behind flight. Moreover, it existed in a form similar to a living being in that it bled blood when injured.

The properties of this blood didn’t differ from a living being’s. However, it was produced by an Influenced Region, an inanimate existence. With that, Inala inferred that the Major Treasure that created it had properties somewhere mixed between Pet and Deity.

The Major Treasure of Deity was creating the Influenced Region of Golden Deity at the Brimgan Empire, a humanoid existence. Similarly, the Major Treasure of Pet was almost done creating the Sanctuary, a place that could sustain life, similar to an Empyrean Tusk.

‘It can appear instantly at any location on Sumatra, has an absolute power that can alter cause and effect to erase its target, and its primary purpose for existence is to prevent living beings on Sumatra from leaving the Continent and bringing in corruption they absorb through the influence of Transcendents and Cosmic Beings.’ Inala smirked once he arrived at this line of thought, ‘It’s as if Hidden Eye had been purposefully created for Sumatra’s protection.’

“Only one existence can appear anywhere on Sumatra, mould its power into any shape as it sees fit, and alter the terrain to its liking.” He chuckled, “So, the culprit is a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle.”

Orakha currently possessed the power of the Iron Empyrean Tentacle. So, it was already an established fact that a Human Avatar could possess the power of Sumatra’s Blessed Race. Similarly, there exists Empyrean Boars, the race that gains the Nature of any creature it consumes.

Based on Hidden Eye’s power, it could have been created by a Major Treasure produced by a Gold Grade cultivator. Therefore, the Major Treasure being a resultant of the Mystic Tentacle was ruled out.

Considering how insanely low the chances of it happening were, the Seat of Transcendence was the only Major Treasure resulting from a Mystic Empyrean Tentacle. Therefore, the only other possibility was through a Free Human.

There were countless geniuses throughout history. And in the earlier times, when Sumatra was dangerous, filled with Pranic Beast races popping up left and right that could fly, the Mystic Empyrean Tentacle of that era must have made plans.

It arranged for the power of the Iron, Silver, and Gold Empyrean Tentacles to be gained by a Free Human, with his Primary Nature originating from the Gold Empyrean Tentacle, hence making him a Gold Grade cultivator.

It was unknown how many times the process was repeated and how many lives were lost until a Free Human not only reached the 10-Life Stage, but wasn’t destroyed by the Bolts of Transcendence and instead turned into a Major Treasure.

And then for hundreds of thousands of years, the Major Treasure built the Influenced Region of Hidden Eye. Eventually, upon completion, Hidden Eye began to do its job and got to erase all causes of flight, reverting many bird-type Pranic Beasts into wingless counterparts.

Gradually, thanks to the efforts of Hidden Eye, Sumatra Continent grew safer for its natives and entered a path of progression.

‘However, Sumatra follows the law of survival of fittest and not strongest. Minor and Major Treasures are said to exceed the laws of the power system.’ Inala analysed, ‘But, that was during their creation. Sumatra’s power system continues to evolve and eventually, the rules followed by these old Major and Minor Treasures fall within the functions of the power system.’

The Attributed Region was the easiest example. Both an Empyrean Tusk and Empyrean Snapper could absolutely slip through, evade, and even gain control of the rules forming the place.

Inala was similarly taking advantage of Comb to amass a wealth of Nectar. The Royal Zinger’s powers were even more advanced than Empyrean Tusks and Snappers. His current powers exceeded the rules of a majority of existing Minor Treasures.

Virala’s Mystic Ewworm could condense a tool from any material it consumes, which was pretty much the function of the Major Treasure of Weapon.

Even in Sumatra Chronicles, the rules of the Major Treasures were absolute. However, things were different in this timeline. For the past three decades, the Mystic Seven had generated enough waves and resulted in the rampant advancement of Sumatra’s power system.

This speed of advancement brought new rules within the power system, causing it to tread into the rules that Minor and Major Treasures exclusively possessed until now.

The Minor Treasure of Tangible Psychokinesis was the best example. Once a peerless Minor Treasure that was extremely economical to the extent the Cooter Clan only gave it to their most valued Empyrean Snapper.

But now, every Zinger Aristocrat had it. Moreover, Zinger Aristocrat could condense two strings of Prana, which was twice the Minor Treasure’s capability.

The existence of Zinger Aristocrats neutered the value of the Minor Treasure of Tangible Psychokinesis. And by the Fourth Major Disaster, even more rules will be added to the power system of Sumatra.

The Influenced Region of Hidden Eye was extremely powerful. But that was it. A good portion of the rules forming it were outdated, allowing Inala’s current skillset to take full advantage of it.

The power of an Influenced Region was the quantity of Major Tressure influence it had accumulated. This was an exhaustible resource.

Brangara’s rampage and summoning of the Bolts of Transcendence during the Second Major Disaster destroyed most of the Attributed Region, expending all the influence it had gathered over the years.

However, a portion of it still remained, filled with influence. This influence will affect the water being absorbed by the Attributed Region, over time causing the newly absorbed water to also possess the same influence.

This was similar to the principle of magnetic induction in that using a magnet, one could turn a piece of iron into a magnet. Given enough time with the induction process, the piece of iron could permanently retain magnetic properties.

It was the same for the Attributed Region. Over time, it would build itself up. However, the time it needs to rebuild to its complete state would be longer than before. After all, it was no longer getting a steady supply of influence from a Major Treasure.

This was the reason the Influenced Region of Hidden Eye hadn’t recovered from the blow Mahira Tusk dealt it to save Resha even after many years had passed. And the wounds generated by the Bolts of Transcendence Brangara summoned into it were even more serious.

Inala was able to clearly spot the wounds that Hidden Eye had haphazardly covered up. This gave him plenty of confidence to enact his plan. With that, he began preparations, ordering the Mystic Humans through Zhya to bring in a large batch of Shifting Ants from the Guna Caves.

Following that, he began to construct a loop, similar to a cyclotron. The inner radius of the ring was twenty kilometres while the outer radius was 360 metres longer. This was completely made by Gold Biome Bombs that he had attached together and opened a hole on the sides touching each other.

This way, the inside of the ring-shaped structure was a complete hollow. Following that, he used his Prana to condense earth along the inner surface, making it resemble the terrain of the Guna Caves.

The construction alone took a year, following which he released the Shifting Ants within, watching them do their thing and add the power of Drifting Tunnel within. Through Perfect Biome Domination, he constantly modified the terrain to ensure that was just a single tunnel inside, one that looped perfectly.

Every Biome Bomb required 1000 units of Gold Grade Prana. So, the production costs alone were astronomical. If not for the help of the Mystic Humans, things would have been harder for Inala.

He supplied the Shifting Ants with Parute Fruits produced by the Mystic Humans, allowing them to work on the creation of the tunnel. This took another four months.

During this time, Virala expressed his intention to meet Inala multiple times, but Inala didn’t bother, allowing Zhya to deal with the situation, confident in her strength and capabilities. Since she had the Tertiary Nature of Prana Stitch, she could hold her own against multiple enemies.

And a fistfight was something the Zinger Representative welcomed, since it played to her advantage. Though Zhya was still growing, the body of Virala in the region was a newly created one too.

So, they were equally matched on all fronts. Thankfully, things were peaceful between the Mystic Humans and Quip Clansmen, allowing Inala to do his thing without worries.

Time passed in such a manner!

Twelve years since the Second Major Disaster ended, Inala had completed his preparations, staring at the constructed loop before him. He had a personal stockpile of thirty orbs—

possessing a Bolt of Transcendence each.

He felt it was more than enough for his task. It was impossible to amass any more for the time being, unless he wished to bankrupt the Quip Clan. Thankfully, all his calculations showed that his preparations were already excessive enough as is, prepared for all contingencies.

Staring at the ring that floated on the water, Inala inhaled a deep breath and elevated himself to the Mystic Grade. With that, he began his plan. Saʀᴄh the NovelFull.net website on Ggl to access chapters of nvels early and in the highest quality.

A Silver Biome Bomb arrived within the tunnel and condensed two strings of Prana. Shaping them into a propeller, it spun them using psychokinesis, generating a thrust. Immediately in response, the Hidden Eye appeared, beginning to erase it.

However, right as it was about to finish, a second Silver Biome Bomb appeared in the tunnel, taking flight.

The Hidden Eye typically vanished after erasing its target, taking a second to complete the process. With enough experimentation, Inala had the timing for everything. How long it took it to erase a Silver Biome Bomb, its speed of flight, the intervals between which it could unleash the erasing ability, how long it took to vanish after erasing a target, etc.

With that, he was ready. Once the Hidden Eye appeared, a series of Silver Biome Bombs appeared within the tunnel, falling due to the effects of gravity. One after another, they unleashed the effect of flight, ensuring the Hidden Eye was constantly engaged in erasing them, one per second.

This way, it didn’t vanish. And as every successive target was within its proximity that it could fly towards in the fraction of a second before it charged up its erasing ability, it didn’t use teleportation.

Tens of thousands of Silver Biome Bombs fell through the tunnel, equidistant from each other. From an external perspective, they were looping through the cyclotron. The Hidden Eye was constantly on the tails of the Silver Biome Bombs that had assumed flight.

Even their falling speed matched its flight speed, slow enough for the Hidden Eye to catch up to its next target before it could fire another round of its erasing ability. As a result, it was caught up within the cyclotron, not vanishing from it, flying constantly.

Upon seeing its success, Inala smiled. And with that, he began to pull the entire apparatus deeper into the ocean, gradually causing its insides to darken.
