1515: The Realm Beyond Gods

The Realm Beyond Gods

"Will they go through their end of the deal?" Krune asked once they arrived at the Rune Realm, remaining there as they thought of discussing things first.  2

"They will." Wally nodded in response. "The core of the TTT is the Geho Realm, a weak realm without even a single God. So, the moment a war erupts, any God can casually damage its foundation, causing the TTT to dissolve on its own. They too know of this weakness, so they'll do anything to rectify it."

"No realm has the power to help them, though. Among the Greater Realms that have the power, the Mong and Garg Realm would obviously take advantage of them and reap all benefits," Wally said. 

"So, since we're a lot weaker than them, we won't be able to do anything." Krune nodded after hearing that. "So, that makes it safer to transact with us." 

"Yes, our lack of strength gave us this significant advantage now." Wally nodded. "We'll produce more Divine Deities this way and also equip all the strong Gods with a Satellite Realm Weapon. This will ensure that we have enough strength to protect ourselves." 

"The resources the TTT will accumulate and send us will accelerate our strengthening by a lot." Krune nodded, understanding that even though it wouldn't mean much to them in the grand scheme of things, the TTT would definitely try to steal resources from other realms to pay the Kun Realm. 

He didn't care about that, though, not having the strength to interfere with such matters. "It seems that only after we become strong enough can we protect our interests." 

"That's natural once the scale of anything becomes as big as an entire realm or, in our case, the entire Kun Realm Cluster," Wally said. 

Thanks to the Kun Realm Cluster, they had a tremendous foundation. It wasn't just the resource production and the various worlds unique to the various races of the Kun Realm. 

But it was also the fact that given enough time, these Satellite Realms would eventually grow to become realms themselves. 

Their current foundation didn't allow that. But with the duo of Hazak and Gegrafikan, they could continue to insert more laws into the various Satellite Realm Cores. 

It would be a slow but steady accumulation that would result in a future where all the Satellite Realms of the Kun Realm Cluster would become so big that they could be considered small realms. 

Moreover, as the Kun Realm Cluster was a combined front of two realms, the Kun Realm and the Tilk Realm, their foundation resulted in a subtle oscillation of the laws. This oscillation was the reason why the Kun Realm Cluster could stably support two Champions. 

Otherwise, either Krune or Sterlena would gradually lose their Champion status as the realm wouldn't be able to handle such overexertion. 

Moreover, there was the fact that Hishe was the representative God of two Laws, one hailing from the Kun Realm and the other from the Tilk Realm. 

It was unknown as to what else had happened to the two realms in their history, but all these various factors combined to result in Krune and Sterlena being stably maintained as Champions. 

As the representative God of two Laws, Krune was slowly comprehending some knowledge into the trust of these two realms and their one shared relationship, if it ever existed. 

It was also the fact that Gegrafikan and Hazak were steadily becoming Primordial Beasts. Hazak mostly originated from the Kun Peng bloodline, but there were some other bloodlines mixed homogenously in her that resulted in the changed Primordial Beast race. 

As for Gegrafikan, this was where shocking truths lay. After all, it was a known fact that the Spirit Incarnations were derived from the Spirit Aberrants. This was common knowledge in the Kun Realm.

However, how come the cultivators from other realms also possessed a Spiritual Incarnation? 

And this was despite them having next to no knowledge regarding the Spirit Aberrant race. This caused Krune to recall the fact that when the Kun Realm was created by Zule, some Primordial Beasts had lived there for some time. 

The time he met Zule was long ago when he was only in the Godly Path Realm. At that time, he wasn't qualified to know about matters pertaining to the Kun Realm's history, its fate, etc. 

'But now, as the Champion, I have the qualification,' he muttered, staring at Wally. "I wish to meet with Zule and confirm something."

"What will you confirm?" Wally asked. "Also, how will you meet him?"

"The status of the Spirit Aberrant as a Primordial Beast," Krune replied. "I feel like there's incomparable danger involved with this. And if it were ever to be revealed, I'm afraid the Mong Realm would become the least of our concerns." 

"Hmm, politics related to the Primordial Beasts?" Wally muttered.

"Exactly," Krune nodded. "Zule is a Primordial Beast, but for a long time, his body was in the Kun Realm. Though, for some reason, the Kun Realm itself was afraid of the Spirit Aberrant race and had divided their powers, preventing them from retaining their sanity when transforming to their demon beast form." 

"Indeed, that makes sense." Wally nodded. "Other Primordial Beasts have been to the Kun Realm ages ago. But none of them were acted upon by the Kun Realm. There should be a deeper reason as to why the Spirit Aberrants were an exception. There's also the innate fear every race feels towards a Spirit Aberrant." 

"Yeah…" Krune nodded, saying, "Even though it wasn't apparent to me before, and I even thought it was comical when the various Primal Gods lost control upon seeing Gegrafikan, recently, even I cannot help but feel a mild sense of fear tremoring in my Wisp Core when gazing at Gegrafikan." 

"So, there's more to him than meets the eye." Wally sighed, "Unfortunately, we're relying heavily on his abilities. So, making him hide isn't an option. We'll never grow without him."

"And this is where the problem lies," Krune said, feeling troubled. "If there truly is a reason for conflict between the Spirit Aberrants and other Primordial Beasts, we'll be doomed." 

"I still remember what Zule said before clearly," Krune stated solemnly. "The Primordial Beasts exist in a realm beyond the Gods."
