NOVEL NEXT Chapter 4
【Ding, sign-in successful, congratulations host on obtaining the Human King Seal and Great Void Technique!】
Ye Junlin’s eyes lit up, his heart filled with joy.
After all, in the brutal world of cultivators, strength is the decisive factor, since there are very few prodigies capable of battling across realms.
Until he transcended beyond the Heavenly Dao, staying invincible still relied on his own strength.
So, this time’s sign-in reward was perfectly timed, offering top-tier divine abilities—truly a boon!
“Elder, may I ask what brings you to my Wind Thunder Sect?”
Upon sensing the external aura, Chen Yunhai led the sect’s higher-ups out from the Great Hall.
Seeing Ye Junlin, his heart skipped a beat.
This guy looked just like that renowned prodigy from Xuantian Sect decades ago!
He remembered how young the man was when he cultivated to Golden Core Stage, causing him great worry, fearing Xuantian Sect would soar to the heavens.
Fortunately, he had suffered a surprise attack that led to a loss of cultivation and had since secluded himself in the mountains, and after all those years, he’d thought him long gone.
Now, seeing Ye Junlin again stunned Chen Yunhai!
Ye Junlin smiled faintly, “Playing dumb, are we? You dare to trespass on Xuantian Sect’s territory? As punishment, Wind Thunder Sect will cease to exist from today onward!”
Boom!
The moment those words left his mouth.
Panic spread throughout Wind Thunder Sect.
“It seems the Qingpeng Demon King has been killed. You Xuantian Sect have been hiding deep,” Chen Yunhai’s face turned dark.
He hadn’t expected that the prodigy from Xuantian Sect wouldn’t fall into obscurity but instead had silently broken through to Nascent Soul Stage.
Had this been before, he would have trembled in fear and knelt in surrender, but today he had his own support—the powerful warriors from Yuhua Sect!
Casting his gaze towards the calm old man, Chen Yunhai’s heart steadied, “Mu Lao, what do you think of the situation now…”
He knew that this was definitely not something a Nascent Soul cultivator could contend with!
Mu Lao shook his head.
Though somewhat surprised that a small sect in this desolate land birthed a cultivator capable of slaying Nascent Soul beasts.
But in his eyes, even the Qingpeng Demon King was just a pesky little creature that could be extinguished with a flick of his hand!
“Kid, hurry up and scram, before I change my mind.”
Mu Lao held himself in high regard, feeling an innate superiority against these small fry.
He couldn’t be bothered to interfere in this local dispute, but due to the Wind Thunder Sect’s young master, he waved his hand impatiently, as if swatting away a fly!
“Mu Lao…”
Hearing this, Chen Yunhai felt somewhat displeased; in his opinion, this powerful man should directly step in to kill.
Sensing the other’s arrogance, Ye Junlin smirked, “Old man, who do you think you are to demand my respect?”
In an instant.
The members of Wind Thunder Sect were left dumbfounded.
“How absurd! This person comes from Qingzhou Yuhua Sect, a status so noble that a lowly cultivator from Xuantian Sect like you cannot offend!”
Chen Yunhai feigned anger, while secretly overjoyed, looking at Ye Junlin as if seeing a corpse.
“Arrogant!”
Mu Lao was enraged, his eyes flashing fiercely, his aura erupting like a hurricane.
Instantly, terrifying pressure enveloped Wind Thunder Sect.
“Transformation Stage!!!”
Everyone’s face paled in shock.
With a Transformation Stage powerhouse making a move, Xuantian Sect’s cultivators would surely meet their doom!
At the same time, they felt a deeper sense of reverence towards Yuhua Sect.
“Transformation Stage? Good, good! Just don’t run; anyone who runs is a coward!” Ye Junlin’s eyes sparkled with surprise.
Having just reached Nascent Soul Stage, and now about to break through to Transformation Stage—what a gift presented to him!
Mu Lao’s face turned livid.
He was a Transformation Stage expert; should the other party not be terrified?
What was with this inexplicable excitement?!
“Seeking death!”
Mu Lao shouted angrily, extending his hand to grasp.
Swish.
A gigantic green hand formed from wood essence surged towards Ye Junlin like a divine hand.
This strike could crush Nascent Soul cultivators hundreds of times over!
“Perfect, this brat is sure to die today.”
Chen Yunhai smiled.
As long as he eliminated Ye Junlin, Xuantian Sect would pose no threat to him!
Once he succeeded in breaking through with the Transformation Infant Pill, he would lead his followers to launch a total offensive and obliterate this sect!
【Ding, detected host encountering an attack from a late Transformation Stage enemy. Now triggering the passive effect of growing stronger in adversity, gaining the cultivation level of peak Transformation Stage!】
In an instant.
A wave of even more powerful energy surged through Ye Junlin’s body, emitting a terrifying aura that changed the expressions of everyone present.
Boom!
That green hand, massive as a mountain, was casually shattered by Ye Junlin’s lift of a hand, turning into countless starlights cascading down—a spectacular sight!
“You… you’re also Transformation Stage?!!”
Mu Lao was taken aback, his eyes wide with disbelief.
To him, the silver-haired youth who was originally at Nascent Soul Stage suddenly burst forth with the aura of a Transformation Stage cultivator, even deeper than his own!
What kind of joke was this?!
In this desolate Arid Province, a native actually cultivated to Transformation Stage?
“This… how is this possible?!!” Chen Yunhai’s smile vanished in an instant, replaced by fear, his voice high-pitched like a woman’s.
He was genuinely terrified!
His heart was almost about to stop!
A mere Xuantian Sect had a Transformation Stage powerhouse presiding over it?
At this moment.
The members of Wind Thunder Sect were so scared they didn’t dare to breathe, their faces filled with dread as they gazed at Ye Junlin.
In Arid Province, a Nascent Soul cultivator was already incredibly formidable, existing as ancestral figures to support a sect’s longevity for a thousand years.
While Transformation Stage cultivators could live for ten thousand years, possessing the ability to annihilate worlds.
Thus, when they saw Ye Junlin showcasing his cultivation, everyone present lost their composure!
“Mu Lao, what should we do now?”
Chen Yunhai pleaded for help.
Had he known Xuantian Sect had a Transformation Stage expert, he wouldn’t dare provoke them even if beaten to death!
Mu Lao’s expression kept shifting, as if recalling something, gradually regaining his composure to sneer, “What’s there to panic about? Don’t forget, I come from Qingzhou Yuhua Sect. The immortal techniques I possess are far beyond his imagination! Based on that alone, he has no chance of winning!”
Chen Yunhai’s eyes lit up.
After all, Yuhua Sect was the holy land of cultivation in Qingzhou, with high-ranked martial arts techniques of all kinds. Otherwise, why would so many cultivators in the Eastern Domain be clamoring to get in?
In comparison, a small sect like Xuantian Sect might have birthed a Transformation Stage, but due to the lack of profound techniques, the strength at the same realm could differ vastly.
Thinking of this,
Chen Yunhai sighed in relief, looking at Ye Junlin with hatred.
Thank goodness Mu Lao was present today; otherwise, Wind Thunder Sect would be finished.
That was close…
“You so confident, old man?” Ye Junlin raised an eyebrow.
Mu Lao’s tone was proud, “I admit your talent is extraordinary, but when it comes to actual combat, you definitely can’t compare to me since I hail from Yuhua Sect!”
Yuhua Sect.
Those three words said it all.
Any random cultivator from there would be a top talent in Arid Province, capable of defeating foes of higher ranks with ease—something the grassroots cultivators simply couldn’t fathom!
“Prepare to die!”
Mu Lao pinched hand seals, his robes fluttering.
Rumble, a hundred thousand thick green vines blotted out the sky, turning into a colossal hand aiming for Ye Junlin.
Earth-tier top-grade divine ability, Taiyi Green Wood Palm!
In the cultivation world, all techniques are classified by rank: Mortal, Spirit, Profound, Earth, Heavenly, Sovereign, Immortal, and Saint tiers.
In Arid Province, cultivators who could practice Spirit-tier techniques were few and far between, and even having a Profound-tier technique could serve as a sect’s treasure.
Now, Mu Lao directly unleashed an Earth-tier top-grade divine ability, demonstrating the terrifying foundation of Yuhua Sect.
“You kid, being able to die at my hands is the honor of a low-level sect cultivator!”
Mu Lao was exultant, brimming with confidence.
This was his most adept divine ability, which had earned him a resounding reputation among the outer elders.
“Hmph, mere tricks!”
Ye Junlin reached out, forming hand seals.
Boom!
Behind him, a towering and magnificent figure appeared, like an unparalleled emperor suppressing millions of beings!
“What… what is this…”
Mu Lao broke into a cold sweat, his pupils shrinking to the size of needles, goosebumps rising all over, feeling a shiver down his spine.
Never had he seen such an overwhelming divine ability—just the first glance made him feel a sense of submission.
“Human King Seal!”
A clear voice echoed through the skies, emanating an air of authority.
Under the astonished gazes of countless onlookers, Ye Junlin raised his hand to unleash the Human King Seal.
Its momentum seemed powerful enough to flip the sun and moon, to disrupt the heavens!
