With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal-Chapter 623 - 552: Meng Jigang Battles the Flame Demon Alone, Four Arhats Join Forces to Break the Demon Tide!
In an instant, the footsteps vanished, and the entire world fell into complete silence.
"A giant..."
"Chi Li?"
Liao Qing’s expression was unspeakable; was the Demon Nest Master coming to block the door?
"Not that powerful, but I estimate it’s probably a titled Great Demon..."
Meng Chuan’s voice was low, trying not to alarm the opponent.
The soldiers behind were unsure of what to do, simply following orders to wait in place.
Meng Chuan looked back, then fixed his gaze forward.
At this moment, the leader of this thousand-strong team was himself.
Sweat gathered in Meng Chuan’s palms, his spiritual tension was as tight as a bowstring, thoughts racing to make a decision.
Considering the majority of soldiers behind him, he made his decision.
"Stay behind me, follow my lead only when I make my move."
As Meng Chuan spoke, he nodded toward the "big one" blocking the way ahead.
Profound light began to stir around him, his will lightly touched, transforming the ferocity at his waist into a shroud of black mist.
Strange sounds came from the mist, the clattering of overlapping armor plates.
Everyone held their breath, watching Meng Chuan step out of the mist.
A massive form, with crimson light flashing intermittently, shooting out from the gaps in the armor, extremely noticeable in the dark passage.
Everyone looked at him, their breaths involuntarily becoming heavy.
His body was completely black like an abyss, covered in jagged bone spikes, reflecting a terrifying aura.
Meng Chuan stepped forward, gesturing for Chen to halt his motion to follow.
"Wait for me to charge out first, be cautious of any trickery."
"Are you alright?"
Liao Chen had concerns, although he lost to Meng Chuan, he was ultimately at a disadvantage.
Celestial Demons have a strong territorial sense, especially Great Demons.
According to Meng Chuan’s description, such a giant creature usually dwells deep within the Demon Nest, occupying a large territory.
This situation of blocking the way must be a result of the Demon Nest Master’s command.
There might be other methods, preparing to confront them.
Meng Chuan planned to enter alone, the risk was immense!
He spoke softly to ease everyone’s mind:
"This Fiery Sun Heaven phenomena is not just the realm of Celestial Demons, it’s also my realm."
With great power comes great responsibility.
He was the "pillar" of this thousand-strong team, who else could go if not him?
Besides, regardless of whether he could annihilate that creature, he should have no problem ensuring his own safety. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Even if there’s an ambush afterwards, the inner thunder and the liberation of his body to a certain extent, all happens in an instant.
"March on, watch for my signal, follow orders strictly."
Meng Chuan transmitted the command to those behind, using air conduction techniques to ensure every soldier heard it clearly.
Getting closer, the fiery light blocking the way, everyone behind could sense its peculiarity.
Perception was not exclusive to Meng Chuan.
He just had a large amount of Spiritual Power, coupled with the special method of Qi Observation Skill, seeing clearer and further.
Meng Chuan raised his hand, indicating for everyone to halt.
All officers above the Martial Arts Master level looked at the fierce light blocking the tunnel exit, their Heart Spirits tightened all of a sudden.
As their senses returned, they understood that it was a terrifying Great Demon they could absolutely not match...
Common people often admire the Martial Arts Master, rarely feeling fear.
But when faced with a titled Celestial Demon, massive to a hundred meters, scales cutting through wind, claws tearing the earth.
What would common people think upon seeing it?
Hope for a better life in the next life...
"Everyone, hold position and await Liao Chen’s command."
Liao Chen’s face no longer held his usual squinting smile.
Dragon whiskers unconsciously emerged from the corner of his mouth, dragging with his hot breath, his expression extremely serious.
With a wave of his hand, a mighty and imposing golden spear held tightly in his palm appeared.
As Meng Chuan moved forward, he gripped it tighter and tighter...
He stepped away from the group, approaching alone.
The soldiers in the team saw this scene, understanding his intent, they all felt admiration arising.
"Captain Meng embodies the demeanor of Commander Cheng!"
What qualities must a competent commander possess?
To be a hero, a champion, a master strategist!
Moreover, to possess the courage to stand alone against thousands!
In their eyes, Meng Chuan’s figure glowed, becoming more brilliant.
Meanwhile, the hearts of the four monks were stretched the tightest.
Inner breath wandered between their meridians, ready to erupt in support.
Meng Chuan took the load; they certainly wouldn’t just stand idly by.
Roughly ten breaths passed, the sound of breathing grew increasingly loud in the passage.
Like a green train burning coal pulling the bellows, excessively cumbersome.
Meng Chuan’s figure gradually shrank in their eyes to a small dot.
Everyone’s hearts were pressed to the extreme, the string hanging in their hearts ready to snap at any moment.
...
With Meng Chuan’s figure gradually disappearing from view.
Everyone suddenly noticed that the air inside the passage swirled like molten glass, sticky and undulating.
From afar, Meng Chuan’s form became obscured, everything appeared layered with afterimages.
Even the extremely dim light was twisted into ribbon-like distortions.
"Everyone, plant your stakes!"
Liao Chen’s eyes narrowed, hurriedly taking over Meng Chuan’s role to issue commands.
Just as his voice fell!
All the gravel on the ground began violently jumping, dust falling from the surrounding rock walls, the trembling sensation grew stronger.
The soldiers had already noticed, one by one standing firmly in place, planting their bodies into the earth, even their upper bodies couldn’t stop shaking.
The violent tremor came suddenly, everyone grabbed their weapon, planting it into the ground to stabilize themselves amidst the turbulent storm.
Liao Chen gazed at the figure dragging red light like a meteor.
His eyes turned into narrow slits, feet tensed, enormous dragon claws materialized.
The trembling sensation intensified, reaching a certain peak.
Like the signal of a starter gun, like someone holding the spine during a massage, abruptly gripping and lifting upwards!
