With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 284 All-out Expedition! The Calamity of the Heavenly Demon!
In an instant, dark golden mycelium and thorny tendrils intertwined to form a magical net that blotted out the sky.

Huo Ting transformed into a golden-white meteor, standing at the very front.

His expression was extremely somber.

Huo Ting couldn't understand where so many Heavenly Demons had come from inside the Demon Nest.

and also
What exactly was that tree spirit with its unfathomable aura?
The next instant, the spear light pierced through the air and struck, the golden true energy clearing a vacuum a thousand meters wide.

He needed to buy time for Chen Cang, in case these demons fell into the city.

The consequences could be disastrous.

Qimu's enormous demonic body forcefully burst the entire entrance.

From the moment it took its first breath of air, the terrifying gaping maw on the tree trunk revealed an expression of extreme enjoyment.

"My backup plan is ready. Now, let me enjoy this world for a while."

"Oh? There seems to be a small bug in the sky?"

The next moment, Huo Ting was drenched in sweat.

But at the entrance to the demon's lair, a colossal tree appeared, its size beyond description.

Its body was enveloped in a deep purple, overwhelming demonic energy that had already solidified into a tangible form.

Previously, the [Jiaomo] caused chaos outside Yong'an City, while the Heavenly King was defending against it.

Huo Ting had also glimpsed the aura of the Thousand-Headed Flood Dragon Demon from afar.

The power of the tree demon before him now seemed to be almost equal to that of the opponent!

Why would a being comparable to the master of a level four demon nest appear in a level three demon nest that has already been suppressed?

Huo Ting couldn't understand it, and he didn't have time to think about it anymore.
In that 0.0001 seconds, before even his mind could react, a dark green afterimage pierced through his chest.

Sharp wooden spikes, carrying putrid and demonic energy, pierced straight into the heart.

Huo Ting's protective true energy shattered like paper, and the blood was swallowed by the mycelium before it could even splatter.

All the people saw was the Venerable One crashing into the ruins from mid-air like a kite with a broken string.

Five dark holes suddenly appeared in his chest, his flesh rapidly turned to wood, and his aura was almost annihilated.

Qi Mu licked the blood from her fingertips, while vines danced wildly in the windless sky.

The ground surged again, and more demons roared as they rushed toward the city.

Wherever it went, buildings collapsed and living beings rotted!
"The task whispered by the mountains is complete; I should go."

Kiki showed no lingering attachment to this overwhelming feeling of despair.

These things never belonged to it; they were merely nourishment for the whispers of the mountains.

They sensed that a powerful figure was rapidly approaching from the south.

Kiki smiled calmly.

"Then Plan B: cut your losses and survive."

The next second, an enormous bear paw landed on the branch.

The guardian of the northern lands, [Tianxiong Zhenyue·Lu Ang], arrived by leaping through the air.

The force of the mountain crashed down.

But then the demonic body of the Qimu suddenly collapsed, and the mycelium receded like a tide, as if it could not bear the burden.

Lu Ang felt somewhat relieved. It seemed that although he was among the lords of a level four demon nest, his strength was at the bottom.

But now is not the time to celebrate, for his demonic body is rapidly recovering with each breath.

He held his breath and focused his attention, then used his strength to block its roots, preventing it from spreading further into the city.

Lu Ang, the garrison commander of the north, could not allow the situation to deteriorate further.
Meanwhile, one of the withered wooden puppets moved somewhat more nimbly.

Unlike the other demons, they did not charge madly into the city.

A hint of cunning lurked in its eyes, and a purple tree crown mark flickered on its chest.
On Mount Li, at the Yong'an Campus of the Northern Associated University.

Meng Chuan was still asleep when he was suddenly woken up by a phone call.

Upon seeing the contact's name, I instantly perked up.

[Master Chen, what's wrong?]

On the other end of the phone, Chen Qiushui's anxious voice came through, along with the sound of a loud explosion nearby.

Stop asking questions and get up! Meet at the school square!

【clear. 】

Meng Chuan immediately rolled over and got out of bed, taking off his pajamas.

He tucked a fist blade into his waistband, put on the magic rabbit inner armor, and ran outside.

As he left the hospital, he looked across the street and saw that even the lights in Xu Qingfeng's house were on.

Without waiting for the other person, Meng Chuan hurried towards the square, muttering to himself:

"Such an emergency in the middle of the night... Could something have happened?"

When Meng arrived, the square was already full of people.

He walked over to the group of martial arts masters and stopped to wait.

Everyone looked very serious; he still didn't know what had happened.

Chu Yanhu's older brother, Chu Yanlong, took out his phone and handed it to him to look at.

It was breaking news, and Meng Chuan's pupils constricted the moment he saw the headline.

[Bloody Alert! The Demon Nest in Chencang has erupted in chaos; the Tree Demon has appeared, and tens of thousands of Heavenly Demons have swept through the city. Lone Peak Zhaoye is critically injured and on the verge of death!]

"The Demon Nest has erupted. Even a Martial Arts Venerable couldn't withstand it?"

Meng Chuan's inner doubts were no less than his shock.

He looked up and asked:
"Wasn't the Chencang Demon Nest suppressed by Principal Yang and his group long ago?"

Before Chu Yanlong could speak, a familiar figure suddenly appeared above everyone's heads.

"The gatekeeper?" In Meng Chuan's eyes, Hua Qingchi's gatekeeper exuded a terrifying aura of a powerful figure.

Immediately afterwards, he understood.

The UN General Assembly's "hidden master" is...
As I came to my senses, a grand sound came from the sky:

"Let me briefly explain, as I believe many of you already know: a riot has broken out in the Demon Nest in Chencang."

For some unknown reason, a level four demon nest master suddenly appeared in the suppressed level three demon nest.

You don't need to worry about this great demon. Currently, the Northern Lands are guarding it and confronting it. Two Heavenly King level experts from the surrounding areas of Shaanxi are on their way to provide support.

However, while breaking through the blockade at the entrance to the Demon Nest, it brought out a large number of Heavenly Demons and rushed towards the city, leaving the residents of Chencang in dire straits.

The Chencang garrison and local police are currently making every effort to eliminate the enemy.

Our university, as well as all the surrounding universities like Wuhan University, need to mobilize all their staff.

"Go to Chencang to assist in vanquishing the demon and restoring peace and order to Chencang."

After a few seconds of digestion, the old man continued:
"Principal Yang is still inside the Demon Nest in Luocheng. The commander-in-chief of this emergency mission will be me, [Songfengsou Bai Qing]."

Our opponents are all solid-type demons. We are divided into groups of twenty martial artists, led by Teacher Erxian, and our main responsibility is to rescue residents.

Master of Three Limits Martial Arts, come with me to block the entrance to the Demon Nest.

The barrier to entry has been shattered, but the demons are still pouring out of their lair. We must cut off the source of this demonic threat at its root.

The remaining martial arts practitioners are free to roam the city, slaying the demons and saving the residents.

I'll go to Teacher Chen Han's place to pick up the signal gun in a bit. The city is mostly inhabited by lower and middle-level Heavenly Demons, but there are still a few Upper-level Heavenly Demons with second-limit strength mixed in.

If you discover them, retreat in time, as they are all tree spirits and not particularly fast.

But if you get bogged down, signal to hold on and wait for reinforcements!

Meng Chuan nodded in agreement. Chen Cang was caught in a demonic calamity, and as a martial artist, he had an inescapable responsibility.

He had to step up and rescue the ordinary residents who were powerless against the demons.

In the face of major disasters, the students of the United Nations University demonstrated extremely high qualities.

Not a single person asked about the reward, and no one said they wanted to quit.

Even the newly enrolled ordinary class martial artists, all of whom remained calm and waited for Elder Bai to give orders.

This is the significance of the establishment of the Northern United Martial Arts University, and even the Four-Party United University!
To cultivate righteous warriors who can step forward and protect the land when the people are in danger!
Seeing this, Grandpa Bai Qing was deeply gratified; they were all such good children.

"Attention everyone!"

The old man's voice was thunderous.

"Everyone, descend the mountain immediately and board the vehicles according to your assigned groups! Remember, your primary task is to save lives, not to play the hero!"

Meng Chuan took a deep breath and quickly descended the mountain.

At the same time, he took out his phone and sent messages to Xu Qingfeng and Meng Jiaolong, telling them to contact him immediately if they were in danger.

He doesn't have many close friends, and he only cares about a few.

As a martial artist caught up in this turmoil, I hope for your safety.
Meng Chuan moved like a tiger descending a mountain. While the teachers led the martial arts students behind, he was almost always at the very front.

A gentle breeze swept past me; it turned out the old man had caught up.

At that moment, the other person's voice transformed into a gentle breeze, reaching his ears, inaudible to everyone else.

"Kid, Xiao Dong is keeping an eye on things for you from the shadows."

"Thank you, Professor Bai, and thank you to the school."

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. It seemed that his little genius really did receive some special treatment.
I accept this treatment with equanimity.

It wasn't like he went to the school to ask for it; the university proactively arranged "bodyguards" for him, so refusing would seem a bit pretentious.

With the help and support of Master Dong Yue, he can now fight the Heavenly Demon without restraint!

After giving Meng Chuan his instructions, the old man transformed into a wisp of wind and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

His task was even more arduous; he needed to quickly reunite with the masters from various schools who had gone ahead.

We must firmly guard the entrance to the demon's lair to prevent the demonic disaster from escalating further.

Meanwhile, the Central Military Academy and Yanhua Martial Arts University next door also sent out their entire staff.

Even Yong'an Martial Arts University within Yong'an City.

Students with advanced martial arts skills or above, as well as teachers, came to provide support.

This is because the Demon Nest riot has affected a large number of residents in Chencang City.

The situation in the western Sichuan basin is more severe than it was at the beginning of August last year!
This was the most severe "Celestial Demon Calamity" in the history of Chencang, and even the entire Shaanxi region!
Chencang is nearly 300 kilometers away from Mount Li, which is quite a journey.

Apart from the martial arts master, the rest of the people were at the foot of the mountain, boarding the special vehicles according to their previous numbers.

Meng Chuan found his vehicle and had just gotten in.

The veteran martial artist in charge of the vehicle cast a friendly glance at him.

Meng Chuan clasped his hands in a fist salute, smiled at the other party, turned around, and sat down in the back seat to regulate his breathing.

The incident happened suddenly, and Meng Chuan had to do his best to adjust his Qi.

With the utmost enthusiasm, we will welcome his first large-scale demon-slaying operation.

This veteran martial arts expert also watched the battle between Meng Chuan and the disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion a few days ago.

He nodded to himself inwardly:
"Xiao Meng is a ruthless person. This Demon Nest riot is extremely dangerous. With a young person of such strength accompanying us, the rescue operation will have a better chance of success."

Time was of the essence, and the car started moving as soon as everyone sat down.

This veteran martial artist had experienced similar events before, but none as severe as this one, so he had some experience.

Those sitting in this car are all powerful individuals with limited freedom of movement.

He stood up and reminded everyone:
"Brothers, check that your gear is in good condition. If someone forgets something due to the suddenness of the situation, you can borrow some from the garrison."

Then, taking advantage of my age and experience, I'll offer a couple more reminders.
