With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 365 Crab King of Gu, Golden Lotus of Dry Land, Battle Merits Soar!

Half an hour later, the sandstorm continued.

Meng Chuan stepped into the Wave Rock area, which was marked as a high-wind area in the Demon Nest's Guide.

"There's not much sand here; it's all been eroded into granite."

The wind carried a demonic aura, forming turbulent, wave-like ravines.

It was also corroded by demonic energy, and the gray-black lines on its surface resembled rolling waves, creating a spectacular scene.

This was a sight unseen in the human world. He paused to look at it for a few more seconds before venturing into it.

Meng Chuan had already sensed that many Heavenly Demons were waiting for his arrival.
Inside the camp.

People from other campuses, seeing that the Yong'an group had returned to rest, all crowded around to inquire about their spoils.

Seeing this, Xu Qingfeng and the others took out the materials from their bags one by one, which shocked everyone.

"You must have raided the Heavenly Demon's lair, so much of it?"

After hearing Xu Qingfeng's description, everyone understood what had happened.

When they hunt, they always send out skilled scouts first to find out what's ahead.

Proceed slowly to avoid getting into a dangerous situation.

The people of Yong'an, on the other hand, had a "God of War" leading the way. They went in recklessly and attacked any demon they encountered.

Like a bulldozer, how could the harvest not be plentiful?
Everyone was filled with envy and eagerly requested to join the team.

"Okay, let's go together tomorrow or the day after."

Everyone readily agreed, since there was no shortage of demons here, and more people meant more help.

But tomorrow, Brother Chuan can still give everyone another day of fun. With the other side around, the hunting efficiency is equivalent to taking a rocket.

Seating on the rocket is limited, so let's not share.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Xu Qingfeng and his companions went to the battle merit jade token to check their battle merit count.

Beside the jade talisman, several camp quartermasters were making real-time statistics.

Looking at the blackboard, the information of the two team leaders, She Yu and Meng Chuan, was displayed at the top.

[She Yu: 142 battle merits, individual ranking: to be determined]

[Meng Chuan: 101 battle achievements, individual ranking: to be determined]

Xu Qingfeng: 28 battle merits, personal ranking: to be determined

Every 24 hours during these seven days, the quartermasters from the four camps would meet together to tally the previous day's rankings.

It is used to encourage the participants of the four schools to strive for excellence.

"It seems that I still need to hunt down high-ranking demons to gain a significant advantage in battle merits."

"That's right. A single high-ranking enemy can earn you dozens of battle merits, which is equivalent to our harvest in several days."

Hearing the slightly arrogant words of Xu Qingfeng and Chu Yanhu.

Chu Yanlong gave a helpless suggestion:
"Sit down, both of you. Don't get cocky. You two dare to go after that giant spider that Meng Chuan just killed?"

"Let's try it."

“Try and you will die”

After reading it, everyone realized...

Apart from the two who were capable of killing a high-ranking demon, the number of battle merits of the rest were basically below 10.

Everyone in Yong'an started at 20 points, which is already pretty impressive.

Xu Qingfeng remarked with considerable emotion:
"This is all thanks to Brother Chuan and the brothers. If it were just me, I probably could only kill some lower-ranking people and get a few battle merits. How could I have earned 28 battle merits?"

Chu Yanlong waved his hand and said:

"Xiao Xu, you are also very excellent. Don't underestimate yourself. It's all because of us that we've dragged Meng Chuan down."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been outshone by She Yu again, sigh.

Just look at Meng Chuan's solo kill of the high-ranking Demon Spider.

Chu Yanlong was certain that, in terms of combat strength, Meng Chuan was definitely no less than She Yu.

She Yu's physique was not as strong as Meng Chuan's, and when she encountered the Heavenly Demon, she could not be as fearless as the other party.

Moreover, She Yu is surrounded by martial artists from the main force, such as Wu Hong. Many of them are top-level martial artists who have already undergone five or six transformations, and they can also lend a hand when they encounter high-ranking demons.

Chu Yanhu, however, had complete confidence in Meng Chuan and laughed:

Anyway, I think that Brother Chuan will eventually be able to suppress [the enemy].
Wait, holy crap, look!

Chu Yanhu suddenly stopped speaking, then pointed at the panel, his face full of disbelief, and said:
"Brother Chuan suddenly gained over sixty battle merits. What kind of demon did he kill?"

On the statistics panel, Meng Chuan has already overtaken She Yu:
[Meng Chuan: 168 battle achievements, individual ranking: to be determined]

Just over ten minutes ago.

Standing before a wave-shaped granite formation several meters high, Meng Chuan felt a chill run through him, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

This was a warning from God, indicating that a powerful demon might be lurking ahead.

Meng Chuan's eyes lit up; he had been exploring the area for quite some time.

They were all low-ranking Karami; even mid-ranking Heavenly Demons were rare here.

Persistence pays off; after wandering around for ages, we finally got a big shipment!
The other party had probably discovered him as well, and was also slowly withdrawing their demonic energy, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Meng Chuan quickly decided to strike first.

They came in to make money, so of course they can't let the other party go.

With a furious shout, the veins on Meng Chuan's right arm bulged out, the lines of which seemed to pulsate as the muscles swelled.

In an instant, a huge, dark iron fist pressed down the sandstorm and slammed it solidly onto the wave-like granite.

The crimson waves surged forth like an overturned cauldron of fire, instantly staining half the sky red.

It moved with the force of a collapsing mountain, engulfing the granite and the demon behind it.

The fire elemental energy and killing intent gathered together, like a golden lotus rising from the desert.

Meng Chuan leaped into the air, his enormous figure like a god or demon descending upon the world. Boom!

With a deafening explosion, a massive, twisted cloud of gray mist exploded in front of Meng Chuan, shattering the thick granite slabs that were twenty or thirty meters high.

The flying pebbles struck him, producing a crisp, metallic clang.

A mournful roar resounded simultaneously, and he felt certain.

The penetrating power of the fist, enhanced by a large amount of wood elemental energy, did not disappoint.

That punch worked!
Like a whale exhaling mist, Meng Chuan took a deep breath and blew away the thick fog in front of him, only then did he see what was secretly preparing to ambush him.

It held its pincers high, each the size of a millstone, and its entire body was covered in a dark black matte shell.

The crab-like demon's eight segments were deeply embedded in the sand. Its carapace was covered with dense purplish-black demonic patterns that flickered with its breath. Corrosive viscous fluid continuously seeped from its joints, melting the surrounding sand into glassy crystals.

One of its eyes was drooping limply, dripping with pus.

Meng Chuan's punch happened by sheer coincidence; the force that pierced through the granite blinded one of the crab demon's eyes.

But he felt no joy at all. Only after the Crab Demon revealed its true form did he realize the immense demonic energy surrounding it.

Although its size is not much different from the previous spider.

However, the heavy force field covering its entire body already speaks volumes.
This guy is even stronger than the Demon Eye Spider!
Moreover, the other person's eye was slowly recovering, like a severed limb regenerating.

The crab demon was also tilting its head, scrutinizing him with its remaining eye.

Its expression, akin to a personified question, seemed to be issuing a challenge.

Is that thing standing in mid-air a person? It's over six meters tall?
Meanwhile, its segments embedded in the ground were secretly exerting their strength.

With a loud bang, a pitch-black crack appeared directly below Meng Chuan in mid-air.

The sand and stones instantly gathered, carrying demonic energy and condensing into spiral spikes that roared toward his crotch!

Meng Chuan's forehead instantly broke out in a sweat; if that thing poked him, he really would get an anal fissure.
Master Dong once said that the Treasure Appearance Golden Venerable Skill is a hard skill with no weaknesses, but he didn't dare to test its strength with his eyes.
With a swift movement, he dodged the attack. His unpredictable and agile movements allowed him to defy logic and inertia, even as he hovered in the air amidst the clouds, and turn back in a manner that defied the laws of nature.

Another cloud of black mist twisted and exploded right beside him.

Meng Chuan hadn't expected the dead crab to launch a series of attacks, and now he couldn't dodge, so he hurriedly bent his arms to protect his head.

Earth vein energy gathers on the outer side of the elbow, forming a thick, dark protective layer.

puff!

The black membrane shattered instantly, and Meng Chuan groaned in pain. In the blink of an eye, he leaped in front of the Crab Demon, and the blazing flames burst forth once more.

"Yang Lei!"

The blade, crackling with red lightning and afterimages, struck the Heavenly Demon Force Field surrounding the Crab Demon.

boom--!
The crimson lightning serpent exploded, its force field annihilated.

at this time!

The crab demon appears enormous, but its speed is terrifying as its numerous limbs twist and turn.

Suddenly appearing behind Meng Chuan, the giant pincers sliced ​​through the air and silently stabbed towards his back.

Without turning his head, Meng Chuan used one hand to raise his elbow and the other to block the large pincers behind him. He used his back and shoulder to brace against the crab's body and exert force to create a back-facing, head-grabbing throw.

Meng Chuan grinned, his whole body trembling slightly from exerting all his strength, but he remained firmly rooted to the spot.

On his arms, there were muscle tumors larger than a human head that were about to burst.

As the juices burst from the joints of the pincers, he actually managed to pull one of the crab demon's pincers off!
This move is the "Flag and Drum Stance" of Qi Jiguang's Long Fist style, and it is equally effective against this type of demon.

Of course, this only applies to him. If any other being dared to use this trick against the high-ranking Crab Demon, it would be tantamount to courting death.

The crab demon felt a sudden pain and couldn't help spitting out bubbles and drooling.

When it falls to the ground, it solidifies the sand and gravel into a black, crystalline polymer.

Saliva flowed to the severed limb, and a mass of dark flesh suddenly grew from the fracture, slowly forming a large bulge.

New crab claws are about to grow.

It was indeed extremely strange. Meng Chuan gave no chance and turned around, with several flashes of cold light.

The fists were as fast as lightning, slashing at the crab demon from both above and below.

This guy is the most troublesome opponent Meng Chuan has encountered since entering the Demon Nest, without exception.

The Crab Demon race has a very low status in the Heavenly Demon Realm, mostly being of lower rank.

Only by devouring their own kind, much like raising poisonous insects, can they advance in rank.

No wonder there are so few mid-level cultivators here; it seems they've all been devoured by this "Gu King."

It is fast, has many magical abilities, and its huge size provides power.

This crab demon is worth his full effort.

Sensing that no one was nearby, a thousand faces and a thousand eyes covered its face, conjuring up an unfamiliar one.

The demonic energy burst forth wildly in his palm, and the two powerful creatures, the giant crab and the giant, engaged in a fierce battle on Wave Rock.

The fists flew like lightning, striking the crab demon from various angles.

His goal was to quickly accumulate the power of the primordial chaos and activate the [Primordial Chaos Domain].

The forceful strike amplifies the power of the fist, while the gentle strike restores strength.

The demonic energy emanating from the crab demon was equally intense and astonishing, constantly clinging to the wounds, which healed in the blink of an eye.

Even with the use of demonic energy, the battle against the Crab Demon will still be a protracted war.

boom! ! !
The blackish-purple true energy and the pure black demonic energy burst forth and vanished simultaneously.

Meng Chuan's long fist slammed down, and the demonic energy he cultivated was like the sharpest scalpel, precisely dismembering one of the crab demon's legs.

The Crab Demon's massive body exploded with rings of dark light, healing its wounds while spreading like a net along Meng Chuan's body.

The two have been fighting for more than eight minutes and are still evenly matched.
