"No! Stop! Get away from me!" A middle-aged lady screamed in fear, having lost her limbs as she dragged herself on the ground, bellowing, "Why have you been following me all this time? Why?"
"I thought you already knew from the start. Isn't that why Trivar used all his resources to flee from Sunkan City?" A wizened old man laughed as he stomped on the middle-aged lady's stomach, preventing her from escaping. He watched her squirm under his feet as he laughed, telling her, "From the start, we have been searching for you. For countless millennia, your family has escaped from our grasp time and time again. Those that manifested your Spiritual Incarnation were always on the run and avoided us."
"But finally..." He gazed at the sky and bellowed a loud laugh. "Us Spirit Aberrations can finally get rid of our curse and dominate the God Realm. And the key lies in you, Tina. Or rather, your Spiritual Incarnation, the Beast Tamer Spiritual Incarnation is the key we have sought since time immemorial."
Their journey spanned countless continents before they finally tracked over Tina to the Zamuria Continent. Having noticed their movements, Trivar began to flee, using the Sub-Realm as a chance to enter it and avoid the Spirit Aberrations.
But eventually, they caught up. Trivar was killed in Layer 3, where everyone was a mortal. Moreover, the passive and active abilities allowed the Spirit Aberrations to wield enough power to finally satisfy their desires.

Gazing at Tina's figure in his hold, the wizened old man failed to rein in his joy, laughing aloud as he grabbed Tina by the scruff of her neck and threw her into the air.
"Ack!" Tina gasped for air as she flew high up in the air, despairing as she saw the body of the wizened old man wallop up before exploding, causing a powerful shockwave that destroyed the building in the surroundings.
Slowly from within…emerged a monster that looked like a mix of countless monsters, possessing tree roots in place of legs that burrowed into the very ground itself, sucking in its essence. Its eyes instantly lost their luster, returning to a bestial nature that prevented even the faintest level of cognition.
As Tina's limbs had been severed, her blood flew out while she was in the air, causing the bestial abnormality to gaze at her, opening its mouth that expanded to become hundreds of meters wide, enveloping within before shrinking down to a manageable size.
Land Aberration!
A being of the legends, one of the first demon beasts that had been birthed by the chaos of the God Realm when it was forming. Throughout history, their population slowly dwindled in size due to their innate deficiency, eventually resulting in a tiny group.
And now, having been through numerous trials and tribulations in the Sub-Realm, their size had been reduced to just one.
One person…of the once scary race.
The Land Aberration swallowed Tina, digesting her in its belly. Tina cried as she noticed her body gradually being dissolved. Suddenly, the restriction on her cultivation vanished as she returned to her state as a God Core Realm cultivator, also obtaining her Spiritual Incarnation.
Or rather, she realized that she only recovered her cultivation base because the Land Aberration's stomach had even digested the seal placed on her. It was the seal placed on everyone that had entered the Sub-Realm, turned into mortals to be placed in Layer 3.
It was the seal created by the gods!
It showed just how scary the Spirit Aberrations were, capable of digesting all sorts of laws to empower themselves. Not only that, despite the Spirit Aberration only being at the First Stage of the Godly Fusion Realm, as depicted the restriction at the top of the Immortal Peak, she was unable to damage it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was unable to rile up her strength in the least, only able to flail around as her body melted while her Spiritual Incarnation was digested, causing her to scream, "Bastard! If I were to reincarnate, I would exact revenge on you."
"You don't need to put on an act!" Suddenly, the wizened old man's voice resounded within his stomach, shocking Tina as he continued, "I know you have left a fragment of your Spiritual Incarnation in Sunkan City. I haven't touched it."
"What I'm devouring here is sufficient for me to protect my race. If you still wish to seek revenge, I, Gegrafikan, would face you anytime. Moreover, the abilities you gained in this Sub-Realm, I have stored all of them within me. When you find me again, I'll give them all to you, with interest." His voice said in all seriousness, "Now that I have attained my race's sole goal, I have no other needs."
"Head towards the Lawless Plains, Tina. I'll be waiting for you there." That was the last line she heard as Tina's body completely dissolved. In an instant, a heavenly presence originated as Gegrafikan absorbed everything that was once part of her, her Spiritual Incarnation, her laws, and the comprehension she had for the respective laws.
It was not to mention the fact that he also obtained all her techniques, becoming many times stronger in an instant.
Upon returning to his human form, he sighed, feeling his clear state of mind as he muttered to himself, "Now, I can switch between my human form and Spirit Aberration form without any problems, maintain a perfect clarity of mind all throughout."
"Ancestors, comrades, I have finally attained our long-lived wish. The hope for our future is now in my hands," he said, tearing up, crying profusely. "But… I've now become the sole member of our race. How will there be glory when I am the last of us, no longer able to propagate our race?"
His expression was aghast when he noticed his surroundings had changed, suddenly noticing he was standing on a circular platform that hovered within a sea of clouds, noticing five streaks of lights hovering before him.
Suddenly, he noticed an alarming sense of danger, turning around to see a sixth streak of light behind him. Surprisingly, this stream of light was actually two lights that had coiled together into a double helix.
Right as he looked at it in alarm, the double helix said, sighing, "To think even a Spirit Aberration managed to enter our Sub-Realm. What the fuck are the rest of you Gods doing?"
