Chapter 560: Home (1/2)

Home.

Currently, Raven's body was within the Ancient Elysium Sect. However, thanks to the Official Writ, he was able to transport his consciousness back to his home safely and could withdraw it at any given point.

Looking at the Grand Ancestral Plane, Raven felt great joy and satisfaction. This was his home, this is where he grew up and in the future, he'd like to live with his own family here. He would also like to be buried here if he ever died.

As the official owner of this lower plane, his connection with the Grand Ancestral Plane is definitely deeper compared before. His and the plane's fate are now irrevocably linked. As he get's stronger, the plane will prosper, if he ever dies, the plane will decline.

Establishing his ownership on this place also allowed him to freely change whatever he wants here, granted that if the changes he implemented were great, it will take longer periods of time before it starts taking effect. Needless to say, Raven has no desires to do anything for now.

Instead, he would like to see how his parent's were doing so far.

Raven looked at the Will of the Plane and said: ”Thanks for keeping your word.”

The old man bowed to him and said: ”It's the least I can do, Milord. In fact, this one had to thank you deeply. With you protecting the plane, our path to evolution will surely be smoother.”

”Yeah.” Raven sighed in expectation as well. ”I'd love to see that.”

The old man smiled heartily, inwardly he was extremely joyous and expectant as well. Although other can't feel it, the Old Man could since he's the collective consciousness of the plane itself. He could feel the unending potential blooming within the plane thanks to Raven's efforts.

He wasn't expecting Raven to acquire the writ this fast. He just left more or less two years ago and he already was vastly different from the last time he saw him. Now that Raven and the plane are irrevocably connected, the plane will have the same growth potential as Raven. And judging from the what he could feel, the plane won't stop at the Mid-Level Plane, it might even evolve to a Great World Level in the future.

All of this, was thanks to Raven.

”I have a question.”

”What is it Milord?”

”Why do you keep your Old Man appearance? Didn't you turn younger when we cured the plane back then?”

”Ah!” The old man chuckled. ”Physical appearances doesn't mean much to me Milord. I am merely a collective consciousness of this plane. It wouldn't matter if I look old or young, it's not like I'm allowed to interact closely with the citizens of the plane anyway.”

”Ah...” Raven nodded. ”Well, you do you I guess. I'll step out for a bit, I'd like to take a look at how my family's doing.”

”As you wish, Milord.” The old man respectfully bowed. Raven then promptly disappeared from his spot and reappeared at the skies of the Grand Ancestral Plane.

Since only his consciousness was here, Raven wouldn't be seen by anyone except the old man from before.

Looking down at the lands, Raven felt memories rushing back to him. Although only two years have passed since Raven left this place, for Raven it's longer. This is due to him spending most of his time inside time enchantments. He endured loneliness in order to make sure that he will have the strength to protect his loved ones.

”Hmm?” Raven frowned as he felt something moving at the corner of his eyes.

He turned around and saw the ground quaking nearby. All of a sudden, the ground exploded and an incomparably large silhouette of a beast rose up in the air and glared at his direction.

Seeing this, a smile blossomed on Raven's face.

”Of course you will feel me, after all I could be considered as your father. Isn't that right, Venus?”

*Hiss!* *Hiss!*

That's right. This enormous monstrosity which came out of the ground and stood up as tall as the sky itself, was none other than Raven's mount - Venus, which he left here in order to ensure the safety of his family.

In short span of two years, Venus had become a towering monstrosity. She mostly spent her time in slumber underground, basking at the blessings of the plane which allowed her to grow bigger and stronger. However, if anyone dares to harm Raven's family, Venus will immediately wake up and won't hesitate to devour the culprits.

His connection with Venus allowed her to sense him, although she can't see him physically, she could tell that he's around.

Raven chuckled and went closer to her. He raised his hand and patted her head like he used to before. He then said: ”You've grown up splendidly girl.”
