Lust System in the Murim World

92  Eyes of Fate- Officially Established When Jin rushed toward him, his speed was fast. It was so fast that Garven knew one mistake would take his life. The ember inside of him started burning once again.

The flame of survival! He must survive.

Garven instantly changed his position to the left as he dodged the strike but Jin knew it would be possible so he already had a move of his own. He quickly paused himself and swung his arm to the right.

Bam!

Jin's arm was heavy. Garven used both of his forearms to block that swing but he was knocked away.

"Originally, I was anxious that there would be another martial artist so I tried to use that scheme. But now looking at you, I felt like I wasted my time. Even if you had somehow survived for thirty days, your body is weak."

Jin spoke as he slowly walked toward Garven who was still on the ground.

"With a little bit of internal energy, I can easily kill you. Then, I will be finally able to leave this damn place."

Jin's eyes turned bloodthirsty. The dark aura shrouded him and the internal energy reached into his foot. In an instant, he reached in front of Garven and punched.

But, Garven moved to the side before it could hit him. The punch struck the ground and created a hole shape of his fist.

"Damn it! You are like a mouse."

Jin retracted his fist and punched the side where Garven was. He wasn't wasting any second. But, Garven wasn't either. He rolled to the side.

Bang!

Jin realized that his fist only struck the ground again. So, he didn't punch again rather raised his foot and struck down.

Bam!

Although Garven was rolling out fast, he was still struck by Jin's foot. And, it struck his right chest, almost cracking his bones.

"Argh!"

Garven screamed in pain. His bones were just inches away from cracking. If he hadn't moved fast enough, he would be dead.

But, Garven didn't stop and give up. He rolled once again and immediately stood up. He tried to run away.

"Do you think you can run away from me? Don't forget you are just an average boy!"

Jin screamed as he rushed toward Garven. He once again raised his fist, infused his internal energy into his fist, and thrust it forward. His steps were so fast that this time, Garven wasn't fast enough to dodge it.

Or rather, he didn't want to dodge it. His foot raised the rock from the ground. Jin was surprised as he couldn't stop himself. And, he ended up striking the rock.

Bang! Crack! Bang!

Jin's fist broke the rock into pieces. His skin tore apart as he pierced through it and struck Garven in the chest. But, the impact wasn't strong enough to send Garven to the ground.

"You, son of..."

Jin clenched his lips as pain struck his head. His hand was bleeding.

'Damn it! My arms aren't strong enough to punch through rocks. If I hadn't imbued more internal energy into my fist, my bones would've cracked. But that also lowered my total internal energy.'

'I need to kill him with my next strike. Alright, let's do that.'

Jin's eyes were filled with bloodlust. At this moment, he wanted to kill Garven at any cost. He calmed himself down and took a deep breath. The internal energy gathered around his blood vessels and slowly radiated out of his body.

'What is going on? This pressure….. it's killing me. It's like I am looking at the tiger that hasn't been fed for days.'

Garven's body started to shake as he realized that pressure releasing out of Jin. It was so powerful that Garven was trembling with fear. He couldn't even move as if his body was restricted to a single position.

Jin stared at Garven with those bloodthirsty eyes as he spread out of his fingers. The dark energy turned into sharp dark claws as he prepared himself to attack.

'I was just a normal child before I found the True Mystic Technique. I still haven't figured out how to train this technique properly. But, thanks to my six months of hard-core training, I was able to successfully train the first style.'

'Moonlight Fangs- It was a strange martial art that turns my internal energy into the blood of the wolf. Whenever I use it, my opponent freezes with fear. Thanks to this, you can't dodge this time.'

"It's time for you to die!"

Jin screamed as he rushed forward. His speed was faster than lightning as he arrived in front of Garven in mere seconds.

'Move! Move, damn it!'

Garven screamed in his mind but couldn't properly move. The only thing that he could move was his hands. He raised both of his hands and put them in front of his chest.

Splash!

The dark claw slashed his forearms and the blood gushed out. Jin's eyes widened as he didn't expect Garven to be able to defend at the last moment. But, he wasn't worried because that strike was more than enough to decapitate Graven.

Whoosh! Tick!

Suddenly, a strange shadow moved out of Garven's waist. It moved so fast that Jin wasn't able to detect it. It wrapped around Garven's hands and stung Jin's arm.

"Ahhhh!"

Jin screamed when he saw the black snake biting his arm. He quickly withdrew his arm and at this moment, he realized something else. His internal energy was also brought inside his blood veins and now the poison had already entered his veins.

"Y-y-y-you.... How do you have that snake?"

Jin looked at Garven with wide eyes as he couldn't believe what he was seeing. The snake wasn't harming Garven instead it was helping Garven to stop the blood flow.

"You killed it, didn't you?"

Garven asked as he slowly put his hands down. The snake wrapped around his hands and waist.

"You didn't understand the reason why they sent the snake after fifteen days, do you? It wasn't there to kill you. After all, if it was then I should be dead by now."

"You are right now. I am just an average boy but it didn't mean I had to give up living just because I was average. You might be a martial artist who could use the internal energy but right now, you can't."

"If you use internal energy, your poisonous blood will reach your brain and heart soon. That means this is a battle between just two boys."

Garven stomped his foot on the ground and moved forward.

"You bastard."

Jin grumbled as he charged forward. His eyes turned wild and the fist rose up.

"Even if I can't use Internal Energy, my body is still stronger than yours."

Jin said as he thrust his fist. The punch pierced through the air as it moved toward Garven's face but Garven easily dodged it.

On the other hand, Garven's hand reached Jin's face and struck him on the nose. The broken nose was much more painful than a punch on the cheek.

Jin trembled in pain as he backed off but he didn't stop there. He quickly raised his leg and tried to kick Garven from the side.

A large rock struck his fist.

12:08

Thud! Thud! Thud!

But once again, Garven dodged it.

"While you were surviving yourself with the help of internal energy, I was surviving by understanding the darkness itself. Thanks to that, I was able to pick up some tricks."

Bang!

Garven duck the kick and then raised his body forward. He clenched his fist and gave a punch to Jin on his chin. It was a solid uppercut but not powerful enough to make Jin fall.

After all, Graven's hands were still injured. The snake somehow managed to stop the blood loss but it didn't heal him. Not to mention, Jin's body was much stronger than his.

"Ahhhhh! Bastard, die!"

Jin fuming with pain and anger rushed toward Garven. His fist carried the internal energy as he punched. But, unlike his previous punch, it was too slow. Garven was easily able to dodge it.

And, at this moment, a strong pain struck him.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"

Jin screamed as if his body was on fire. He fell to the ground as the poison started to affect him. The poison had already reached his brain and heart.

Thud!

Jin fell to the ground and slowly started to pass out. As his eyes slowly started to close, he saw Garven standing above him. He tried to speak but couldn't utter a single word.

But, he could still hear Garven.

"If you were an adult, you would've focused on clearing the poison. But, thankfully you are just a boy. A boy who has amazing power."

Bang!

A large rock struck his fist.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

But, it didn't stop there. Garven continued to smash that rock on Jin's face. At this moment, there was not a single trace of emotion on his face. He knew if he wanted to survive, he had to kill.

Thud!

After killing him, Garven threw away the rock. He sat next to him for a long time. After a while, he looked through Jin's body and found a book. He put the book inside his clothes immediately and slowly walked toward the door. The snake moved from his waist and slowly wrapped around his neck. The snake wasn't too long or big.

It was just half a meter-long black snake with emerald eyes which were slowly matched by the green glow from Graven's eyes.

Crack! Crack!

Slowly, the massive wooden door in front of him started to open. As the door opened, a strong light pierced his eyes. But, the tail of the snake quickly blocked the light.

"Package No.777, you have successfully completed the first trial. Now, you will proceed to the second."

A man wearing a red mask spoke while standing in front of him.
