One-Eighth of a God

Eight shooting stars fell to earth. Eight people were chosen by the gods. Chen Mo was the eighth. A high school senior, he sleeps on a sofa bed in the living room and helps his mother run a tofu stall every morning before dawn. He ranks below 300th in his school, and his greatest ambition in life is to get into a second-tier university in his province. The “divine power” he received is the ability to see three seconds into the future. Pretty useless. He can’t beat anyone; all he can do is dodge. Then a swallowed divine power surged into his body. That was when he learned about “Divine Seat Devouring”: kill someone, inherit their power. Kill all eight, and you become the ninth god. The whole world is looking for him. Some want to kill him and ascend to godhood. Some want to capture him and cut him open. Others want to worship him on an altar. Chen Mo just wants to make it through his senior year. But up in the heavens, eight gods are waiting with teacups in hand. “Let’s see whether this most ordinary child becomes the most terrifying one among us.”
