NOVEL WEB Chapter 7:
Chapter 7: Human Divine Body! Divine Power? Blown Away with One Punch! Defeating the Junior, Then Crushing the Elder
Instantly… killing a True Disciple of the Holy Land?
That was the first thought that popped into Li Fan and the others’ minds.
What kind of joke was this? A single slap and a Holy Land True Disciple was crushed?
That was their second thought.
The Mortal Shedding Realm—it was a realm that truly marked the transcendence of a mortal being. The gap between the Mortal Shedding Realm and realms beneath it was like the difference between heaven and earth. Yet a Core Formation Realm cultivator had instantly killed a Holy Land cultivator at the Mortal Shedding Realm? And not just any disciple, but a True Disciple?
That was the third thought.
Everyone was completely stunned. Their minds went blank.
That Chu Junge could suppress them was something they could still barely understand. After all, he had guarded the Demon Cave for decades. His battle experience was abundant, and his cultivation was higher than theirs.
But now, the Holy Land clearly had the higher cultivation and superior legacy. And yet they were still crushed? Was this a joke?
Li Fan’s mental state collapsed. His thoughts became chaotic, and suddenly, his longing to enter the Holy Land didn’t feel so desirable anymore.
Liu Yan’er’s face could no longer maintain its usual coldness. Her expression became dazed. Thinking about how well Chu Junge had treated her in the past, and comparing it with Li Fan’s performance now, regret unexpectedly began to surface in her heart.
[Ding! The Child of Destiny’s mentality shattered due to the host’s performance. The female lead felt remorse. The Child of Destiny’s halo has been damaged. Critical luck point reward triggered. Congratulations, host has received 4000 Luck Points.]
The mechanical voice of the Luck Plundering System echoed in Chu Junge’s mind.
Luck Points: over ten thousand.
“You’re not a Demon Body. You don’t carry demon blood. You’re a Divine Body!”
“A Human Race… Divine Body!”
“What exactly is your background!?”
The two Elders of the Holy Land snapped out of their brief daze. A chill ran through them as they looked at Chu Junge in fear. Their minds trembled.
“My young friend, if you’re willing to join the Celestial River Holy Land, I can personally guarantee you a chance to participate in the selection for the Holy Son,” Kong Hongtao said with a sharp gaze, taking a deep breath.
With Chu Junge’s strength and performance, he was more than worthy of the Holy Land’s favor. As for the earlier conflict, that didn’t matter anymore. Talents like him were what truly mattered.
“Pu!”
Wang Chenfeng spat blood in fury, eyes wide with disbelief. He couldn’t accept it.
He had been attacked, and not only did his fellow elders not blame the attacker, they even wanted to let him become the Holy Son of the Holy Land?
“Chu Junge is not from the demon race! He’s from the Human Race… and he possesses the Human Divine Body…”
Li Fan and the others were dumbstruck. Their minds buzzed and went blank.
Especially Liu Haitian, his daughter, and the other high-ranking members of the Star River Sect. Their regret and disbelief were woven together in a tangled mess.
How could this be? How could he not be a Demon Body? The aura they had sensed clearly felt demonic. But now that the Holy Land had confirmed it, they had to accept it—after all, the Holy Land’s judgment was certainly more accurate than theirs.
Liu Haitian and the others immediately wanted to soften their stance. After all, if Chu Junge became the Holy Son of the Celestial River Holy Land, he would become a towering figure in the future.
Based on Chu Junge’s previously honest and humble demeanor, they were convinced that he would forgive them.
But before they could even open their mouths, Chu Junge lifted his eyes slightly and said indifferently, “Holy Son of the Holy Land? Heh… when there are no tigers in the mountain, monkeys claim to be king. A sect in the Eastern Wasteland dares call itself a Holy Land?”
Not even the ruler of the Tianhuang Continent, and you have the face to call yourself a Holy Land?
Inviting me?
You think you’re worthy?
Offer a sweet date after the stick? You think I’m still the old fool who didn’t hold grudges and played the honest man?
“You all… kneel before me as well.”
Chu Junge stepped forward. In a blink, he appeared in front of the two Elders.
He threw a punch. Boundless divine power burst out, supported by Innate Primordial Qi. The strike surged like tides, and the power of heaven and earth condensed around it. The air was filled with muffled thunder.
Visions appeared—moonlight rising from the seabed, the God-King Bathed in Thunder, ancient blessings from gods and devils…
Countless divine phenomena manifested, as if the power of ancient gods and demons had merged into Chu Junge’s body. His aura skyrocketed.
His body, refined nine times through Body Tempering, surged with endless life force. His blood flowed like an unstoppable river. His Spirit Sea churned like a massive vortex. His immortal Core Formation Realm connected with heaven and earth.
In just one moment, Chu Junge had reached an extraordinary state. His aura was so terrifying that cracks began appearing throughout the Demon Cave. The entire small world could no longer contain his power.
“How dare you! A Core Formation Realm dares strike at the Divine Treasure Realm? You lawless brat! You really think you’re invincible!”
“The Divine Treasure Realm contains divine power! We walk the path of Heaven and Man! I’ll let you understand what true heavenly might is. With your pitiful strength, you dare to act like you’re above all? Who gave you the courage!?”
“Divine Power: Wrath of the White Tiger!”
The second Elder, Qiu Hao, erupted in rage. He didn’t even summon his treasure, only formed seals with his fingers. A phantom of a white tiger roared forth, its divine might shaking the sky. Roaring shockwaves surged toward Chu Junge.
“The flavor of gods and demons… this is bad!” Kong Hongtao sensed something was off in Chu Junge’s aura. His expression changed, and before he could say anything, Chu Junge’s punch had already struck the white tiger phantom.
Divine power?
Destroyed with one punch!
The white tiger… was turned into a white cat!
A cry of anguish was heard, and the phantom instantly shattered into nothingness.
The divine power was crushed. Qiu Hao suffered backlash and vomited blood. His eyes widened in disbelief. As Chu Junge drew near, Qiu Hao’s face twisted and he roared, “You think a mighty Divine Treasure Realm cultivator like me is—”
Before he could finish, he prepared to strike back with a combat technique.
Even without divine power, I’m still a great cultivator of the Divine Treasure Realm!
BOOM!!!
Qiu Hao lay face-down on the ground—sleeping peacefully.
“Are you kidding me? Even the Divine Treasure Realm isn’t a match for Chu Junge!?”
Li Fan stood frozen, his brain buzzing.
“Chu Junge is actually this powerful!?”
Liu Haitian and the others were equally dumbfounded, their bodies trembling with cold.
“This is all a misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding, young friend…” Kong Hongtao broke into a sweat, just about to explain.
But before he could speak, Wang Chenfeng roared from the ground with hatred, “Chu Junge, you ant! How dare you provoke the Holy Land? You’re doomed! Today, you’ll learn the Holy Land… cannot be insulted!”
As he spoke, he crushed a jade talisman and shouted, “Master, descend!”
BOOM!!!
Suddenly, heaven and earth changed color. Roaring waves surged endlessly. A rift tore through the void, and an infinite celestial river burst forth.
From within the river, a middle-aged man with a dignified aura stepped out. The moment he appeared, his terrifying pressure enveloped the entire Demon Cave, freezing everything.
“Feng’er, what happened? Why did you use my divine sense?”
“…Huh? Who injured you like this?”
The middle-aged man was still speaking when he took in the scene, his expression stunned. His gaze swept across the battlefield, and he furrowed his brows.
Even Qiu Hao had been subdued?
When his gaze fell on Chu Junge, a look of surprise appeared.
A Core Formation Realm cultivator… with such power?
“This boy must be hiding some kind of secret…” That thought flashed through the middle-aged man’s mind as his eyes narrowed slightly.
Kong Hongtao was sweating bullets and was just about to speak when Wang Chenfeng interrupted, shouting, “Master! This child is utterly ungrateful. He not only betrayed the Human Race and insulted the elders of his sect, but he also dared attack our Celestial River Holy Land!”
“He mocked the Holy Land and said we were just monkeys in a tiger-less mountain! Even Elder Qiu Hao was seriously wounded by him! Please, Master—crush this ant!”
His voice choked with rage and boiling hatred as he glared fiercely at Chu Junge.
So what if you’re strong?
In this world, background is everything.
My master is the Grand Elder of the Holy Land—at the Heavenly Bone Realm. Let’s see if you can fight him.
Even if you can… his true body can descend at any moment. The Holy Land has endless power to suppress you. No matter how strong you are, can you fight the entire Holy Land?
Without background, no matter how strong you are… you’re still doomed.
Liu Haitian and the others thought to themselves… Thank goodness we didn’t try to patch things up. That brat may be strong, but he’s also really stupid.
He dared to provoke the Holy Land? Does he think he actually has some grand backing?
“Chu Junge, your death is certain now!”
“Heh, arrogant? Let’s see how arrogant you remain. What a shame… I won’t be the one to personally crush you,” Li Fan thought smugly to himself, a satisfied smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
