Earlier, as the Necklace of Inheritance dimmed an oceanic light, at the same time Lu Zheng felt an abnormal sensation entering his whole body, Ravyn had been watching the whole event happening with his eyes closed.
As always, his face was shrouded in darkness, even his body was barely exposed, showing his vague appearance.
Skeletal-like body, as though lacking any blood, sitting in a lotus position while seemingly leaning on something that could not be seen.
Such was the body of Ravyn, who was shrouded with mystery.
Soon, the projection showed that Lu Zheng was now leaving the place, and his eyes slowly opened.
However, his eyes were only half-open wide, as though it was dead, lacking any soul on its thin, crimson pupils.
Yet, Ravyn completely has his consciousness on his surroundings, even watching the projection where it shows Lu Zheng walking out of the place.
Suddenly, his voice echoed inside the place, "If you keep staring at me like that, you'll break your neck."
Ravyn's voice did not reach Lu Zheng, for he did not intend to communicate with him anyway.
If he had the intention to send a message to Lu Zheng, he did not need to do anything but just directly talk to him.
Now, he appeared to be talking to himself, but it seemed it was not the case as his pupils moved downward to the right.
There, below on the mountains of bones that he was sitting, expanding to five meters radius below, a man in blue cloth walked out of the shadow, gazing at him.
Indeed, the way he was staring at Ravyn seemed to break his neck.
His expression was grim as he adamantly tilted his head upward to gaze at Ravyn.
Ravyn glanced at his waist and saw him grasping on the hilt of his sword inside the scabbard.
The sword hilt and the scabbard appeared to be the same design as the Azure Tide Legendary Sword, so Ravyn could take a guess.
He hummed in amusement.
His upper teeth were barely exposed on the right side, as though he was smirking.
"So? Why are you in this place? Did you fool your entire clan somehow?"
"Who are you?" The man in blue retorted with another question.
Ravyn's upper teeth disappeared.
The man in blue was furious, hearing no response from the man, as he shouted in anger, "I'm asking who are you? Why are you inside the consciousness of my descendant? Has my clan been possessed by parasites like you?!"
"First."
Ravyn raised his index finger and swung it downward.
"Show your manners."
A massive pressure descended on the man in blue, almost breaking his neck.
He hurriedly lowered his head and gnashed his teeth in anger.
His fury swelled up, even unsheathing his sword.
He was determined to kill the person above him, acting high and mighty when he should have been in that place.
After all, he planned to take over his descendant's body if it had the potential to become a Grandmaster and above.
It took him many attempts, from Lu Zheng's father's father's father until his father, who only showed to have the potential of the Master at best.
If the current possessor of the Necklace of Inheritance, which was Lu Zheng, showed the potential to become a Grandmaster and above, only then he would venture to the Central Plain and attain the peak after erasing his soul and owning the body.
His announcement of venturing into the Murim World was factual, but it was to gain insights from the world, trying to live his life to the fullest.
His actual plan was to patiently wait for a descendant to be born blessed by the heavens, slowly corrode his soul, and completely control his body.
It only worked because he found a forbidden inscription technique.
If his plan worked, he would have the power to venture into the Central Plains.
He cursed his bad luck for being born in a body with limits, only having the potential to become a Master.
He wanted way more than that.
He wanted to stand at the peak.
Hence, seeing the man standing at the peak of the mountains of bones, as though conveying the countless corpses he gathered to show he was the strongest who attained the highest realm, he was angered to death.
He could not believe it.
He felt his pride was being swallowed the more he gazed at the man earlier, ignoring the stiffness of his neck as time went by.
As a result, he unsheathed his sword and took the stance, ready to kill the man with a single jump.
He purposely ignored the reality that there was a vast difference in strength between him and the man at the peak of the mountains.
His mind narrowed as he only recognized the result of successfully killing the man and replacing his position.
Such a delusion was formed by fantasy.
At the same time, Ravyn had been amused by the stance he executed, as it was the sixth stance he had seen in the shadowy figure before.
He was now certain that the man below him was Lu Zheng's ancestor.
He completely fooled his clan.
Who would have thought he was such a wicked character?
To even plan on parasitizing his own descendants?
Yet to call him a parasite above that?
He was slightly infuriated, causing him to lose interest in letting the man in blue live for a while.
Ravyn stared at the man in blue for a moment, interested by the small radius of the blue ocean below him, as though creating his own domain.
However, how could a meter radius blue ocean domain be compared to his own domain?
It was hilarious to the point he completely lost interest.
As a result, as the man in blue bent his knees, ready to jump upward, Ravyn kissed his thumb finger to the index fingernails, tilting downward, which was putting pressure on the man in blue.
His chilling tone reverberated. "And who are you to insult me? You are not qualified, and no one has been."
He flicked his finger, and a strong gust of wind suddenly exploded, affecting the mountain of bones, as a light landslide occurred.
At the same time, as the flurry gale was about to arrive before the man in blue, his eyes widened, revealing his oceanic eyes similar to Lu Zheng.
He saw death flying towards him.
He knew he would die.
Splash!
When the gust of wind passed him, he was reduced to a pile of blood and crushed bones, dropping his remains into the ocean of blood filled with skeletons.
Soon, the place returned to its tranquility as if nothing happened.
Ravyn gazed at the projection, showing Lu Zheng encountering his first enemy after receiving the system, as he closed his eyes and mumbled,
"Brat, you better be thankful."
