With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 366 Star Destroyer Power Effect Attack River Splitting Palm!
Meng Chuan still suffered from poor blood and qi.

If one possessed the strength of Qi and Blood at the second limit, coupled with already formidable physical strength, how could they have been locked in a stalemate with this giant crab for so long?

The number of minor demons around them was countless, having been suppressed by the combined aura of the two.

Their bodies had already piled up nearby, forming small hills.

The shouts of battle shook the heavens, and no other demon dared to approach and "pick up the scraps".

"It's been too long. This place isn't far from the camp. Let's hurry and kill them to prevent anyone from seeing the demonic energy and causing further trouble."

Meng Chuan's arms throbbed violently as he engaged the Crab Demon in a frenzied battle.

Boom!

With a sharp explosion, his figure, accompanied by a shockwave, suddenly appeared above the Crab Demon's head.

Meng Chuan swung his right arm back and then suddenly stretched it forward, unleashing his power. The veins on his bald head bulged, and his whole body erupted with purplish-black flames. This was the result of the simultaneous transformation of his six orifices, where all the demonic energy was gathered together.

The aftershocks of this extremely powerful force spread in all directions, crushing the sand on the ground and the demonic energy in the sky into dust.

"Star Destroyer!"

boom! ! !
The fist flashed with purple light as it landed on the crab demon's enormous maw.

In an instant, a terrifying power, dark black with purple hues, permeated every part of the crab demon's body, and then the power burst forth from its mouth, nose, limbs, and pores.

Centered on it, the dark purple energy exploded into rings, scattering outwards to a distance of nearly 150 meters, surging endlessly.

In a short while.

Everything was annihilated; the Crab Demon vanished.

Even below where it had just stood, a large cavity several meters in diameter was exposed, with smooth edges.

Inside the cave, the sand layer, which was nearly seven or eight meters deep, had vanished, revealing a rock layer composed of gravel and pebbles buried deep underground.

Meng Chuan's body slowly contracted, panting heavily.

This battle nearly exhausted him.

Divine skills and ultimate techniques are not easy to use; they are limited to one.

If one were not physically strong, an ordinary person would not even be able to use it.

"This thing, even if it's not at the peak of the upper level, is probably close."

Meng Chuan removed the strange object from his face, and after regaining some strength, he slowly strolled to the edge of the pit to search for something.

He jumped into the pit and sensed the flow of energy, only to find a dark cloud of gas.

Apart from the Crab Demon's true spirit, all other tangible things were vaporized.

One less gain was found: the other party's crab heart could be used in a precious medicinal pill, worth tens of millions.

"What a huge loss!"

Actually, if he had continued fighting with his opponent, he could have won just the same.

However, he needed to avoid the demonic energy, so Meng Chuancai made the bold decision to unleash his ultimate move.

"The day after tomorrow, I will travel alone deep into the heart of the demon's lair. If I encounter such a powerful enemy again, I can slowly wear him down using gentle force, leaving him with a complete corpse."

【Huangsha011】It's incredibly large; how could you possibly encounter people so easily after going hundreds of kilometers in?

With the addition of the superior Crab Demon's true spirit and battle merits, this battle wasn't a complete loss.

Even a mosquito's leg is still meat. After processing the materials of the Heavenly Demons that had been killed by the aftershocks of the battle, Meng Chuan turned and left.

On the ground, only a large, dust-free area remained after being cleared, along with a huge void in the very center.

On the way back to camp, due to considerable physical exertion, Meng Chuan no longer considered the upper position as his target.

They hunted down lower-level demons while making their way back.

When encountering a gathering of lower-level demons, Meng Chuan swept them away with his spear, mowing down enemies like a mowing-down field, which was incredibly satisfying.

When faced with a mid-level opponent, Meng Chuan tried out the other four types of Thunder, and also practiced some third-rate boxing techniques.

A rather thick layer of sand.

The notice for the Demon Nest states that the sand here is over ten meters thick, so beware of sand worms burrowing underground to attack.

With a whoosh, a sandworm, two or three meters long, with mouthparts resembling a meat grinder covered in barbs, burst out of the ground.

It lunged at Meng Chuan's head, as if it wanted to swallow him whole from top to bottom.

"Even if you were given the chance to bite it, you couldn't!"

With a furious roar, Meng Chuan slammed his right palm into the disgusting maw of the giant sandworm demon.

Its gentle strength is like a babbling brook turning around when it encounters a rock, or like waves surging endlessly.

Although it was a third-rate boxing style, Meng Chuan's power was still astonishing when he used it.

When the practitioner of a martial art is strong enough, even the Guoyiquan style can split mountains and shatter rocks.

The sandworm was stunned; the gentle force, imbued with the true energy of water, had already penetrated its interior, damaging its organs.

clap clap clap!
Three consecutive palm strikes were unleashed, like surging waves, each strike more powerful than the last, pulverizing the sandworm's entire head.

Realizing that his opponent was dead, Meng Chuan stopped and stood still.

After sensing that there were no obstructions around him, he squatted down and took out the sand worm's heart and true spirit.

Aside from its true spirit, its most valuable feature is its nested, spiral-blade-like mouthparts.

But he accidentally destroyed it again, so he had to settle for the next best thing and choose the Demon Heart.

During the battle, he had to concentrate on fighting the enemy and had no time to preserve the spoils of war.

That terrifyingly large mouth was almost biting him, posing a great threat, so Meng Chuan certainly wouldn't hold back.
After cleaning the blood off his hands, Meng Chuan looked at the control panel.

This three-stream martial arts style is perfectly complete.

[River Dividing Palm: Limit Broken]

[Already obtained the Limit Break Trait: Frost Vortex (Low Level)]

Effect 1: Lingering and persistent. Water-based palm techniques are unpredictable, and the palm force is like a bone-deep soreness, causing continuous soreness and disrupting the rhythm of movement.

Function Two: Deflecting Force Like Waves, Palm Strike Disperses Power Without Recklessness, but Through Softness. Just as flowing water dissolves the impact of a boulder, it uses softness to overcome hardness, slightly enhancing the martial arts principle of soft power.

After reading its effects, Meng Chuan casually filled the [Frost Vortex] into the Five Elements Universe Technique.

Proficiency has been achieved, and the second breakthrough is possible (75%→80%).

After packing up, Meng Chuan continued on his way, pondering to himself: "Strictly speaking, the Dividing River Palm is a modified ancient martial arts style. Its characteristics, functions, and effects are roughly what I guessed."

Modern boxing is better than techniques that only have one function.

The first function is to enhance practical combat skills, which can be considered as icing on the cake.

If Meng Chuan were to strike with his palm now, and manage to break through the defense, he would inflict maximum negative status effects.

Tearing, chill, fire poison, chaotic breath, blood oath, and a whole series of other effects were applied, making it quite abnormal.

These are all equivalent to his current [attack effects].

When encountering a tough enemy with high health and defense, you'll face a formidable opponent.

Aside from the [Star Destroyer] ultimate move, these special effects can be used for guerrilla warfare, gradually wearing down the enemy.

His punches have already reached maximum penetrating power; when facing a high-ranking demon, there's no need to worry about whether he can break through their defenses.

The second function is similar to strengthening martial arts skills in a minor branch.

It's quite good that it can perfect Meng Chuan's water-based martial arts and overall boxing principles.

Coming to his senses, Meng Chuanjin continued to think, now focusing on the various attack effects all over his body.

"As I acquire more and more traits, overlapping effects are inevitable. For example, what I gained today is very similar to the [Seepage] effect of the Cold Cone."

The Dividing River Palm technique was derived from the Drilling Fist.

The fact that they have some similar effects is likely due to this reason.

If he wants to diversify his methods, he needs to collect martial arts techniques again.

Find a boxing style that is significantly different from what you are currently learning.

He had already mastered most of the three-tiered Five Elements Fist technique.

He borrowed most of the equipment he hadn't started practicing yet, so he could continue his training back at school.

If you want to find other attack effects, practicing the second-rate Five Elements Fist is a good way.

Otherwise, he would have to turn his attention to other Xingyi school boxing styles.

Such as Wing Chun, Arhat, Bagua, etc.

The goal he set long ago was to unify all methods and combine the strengths of all schools of thought, which is also the way to maximize the function of the panel.

However, he still prioritizes the Five Elements Fist for now.

He was relatively unfamiliar with other Xingyi Quan lineages, except for Bajiquan.

Although other martial arts techniques can be learned without a teacher, they take longer to learn and the efficiency of accumulating proficiency is not high.

Currently, we should still follow the core characteristic of the Five Elements Returning to the Origin.

Each time this method breaks through the limit, the gains are enormous, no less than gaining several intermediate traits.

Moreover, as a core trait, its effect is approaching that of a high-level trait as the number of times it breaks limits increases, and it may even surpass that in the future.

He is only 20% proficiency away from successfully breaking through the limit a second time.

Unless the next breakthrough becomes too difficult, I will consider practicing other styles of boxing.

Since I'll have to learn it sooner or later anyway, I'll just see which one offers the best value for money when the time comes.

Back at the North Union camp.

His companions, having finished their meditation, set off again for the hunt at Pinnacles.

Meng Chuan went alone to the Jade Talisman of War Merit to see how much he had gained so far.

Looking at the statistics panel:

[Meng Chuan: 202 battle achievements, individual ranking: to be determined]

He glanced at She Yu; her battle merits were only 160, already putting her far behind.

But Meng Chuan frowned, still dissatisfied.

"It's quite a bit different from what I expected."

Today's battle achievements are only enough to exchange for two or three Nourishing Meridian Pills.

Fortunately, the materials he obtained from the Heavenly Demons could still be exchanged for a considerable number of academic credits.

"After today's test, we can be bolder when we take action tomorrow and strive to break five hundred battle merits."

"When I travel alone later, it will be 1000 a day!"

He came here to earn merit and academic credits!

Other students at Beilian University also saw that Meng Chuan was far ahead of everyone else on the statistics panel.

Amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, Meng Chuan returned to his room to meditate and have a meal.

The door closed, and only then did the discussion begin.

"Two hundred battle merits, that's equivalent to killing over a hundred mid-level Heavenly Demons, that's incredibly powerful."

"Yes, even if all the demons lined up and let me kill them without fighting back, I still couldn't kill that many. I'd be exhausted to death."

"Perhaps, Chief Meng can even kill a high-ranking Heavenly Demon."

His battle merits suddenly increased by dozens of points; he probably killed a big guy.

The speaker noticed that She Yu and her men had not yet returned.

He then added cryptically:
"I think Chief She is still a bit lacking, not as good as Chief Meng."

A bystander chimed in:

"I think so too. Just think, if Brother Chuan could defeat a high-ranking demon at the first limit, how strong would he be when he breaks through to the second limit?"

"Yes, the key is that Chief Meng is not only incredibly strong in actual combat, but his cultivation speed is also freakish. He achieved simultaneous changes in all six apertures in about half a year, which is simply inhuman."

While everyone was chattering and discussing, in the corner...

Wu Hong was quite depressed as he roasted potatoes for his master.

Shang Ruyi just likes this.
She Yu didn't want him, and Wu Hong didn't dare to act alone, so he could only hunt with people from other campuses and had just returned.

When Wu Hong returned just now, he also saw the prominent three-digit number on the battle merit panel.

"Damn it, luckily I controlled my urge to bet, otherwise I would have lost everything, even my underwear."
