Swoosh!

An inconspicuous green blade light appeared and circled around its neck at lightning speed.

The demon corpse guard let out a strange roar, and it jumped to the side. As a result, just half way through its jump, its head fell off its neck. The heavy body fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and stopped moving.

The green blade light turned back into the small green blade and returned to Liu Ming’s hand.

Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief. The black phantasm aspect turned into black air and submerged into his body.

Seeing this, Zhao Qianying and Ouyang Ming also heaved a sigh of relief. They withdrew their phantasm aspect and flew down to Liu Ming’s side.

“I didn’t expect these 2 demon corpse guards to be much more powerful than the ancient demon corpse I encountered before.” Zhao Qianying glanced at the headless demon corpse, then at the demon in the distance whose forehead was pierced through by Liu Ming. She said with a slight frown.

“These demon corpse guards are extremely resilient… I just saw Mr. Liu cut off the black vine behind the demon corpse. Could it be because of that thing?” Ouyang Ming looked at Liu Ming with a frown.

Liu Ming nodded thoughtfully, walked to the severed black vine on the ground, and squatted down.

The other end of the vine was submerged into the ground of the main hall. The black liquid was still slowly oozing from the severed vine. It looked abnormally viscous.

“What the hell is this?” Zhao Qianying and Ouyang Ming also came over. Ouyang Ming asked after looking at the black vine.

“By the way, this thing is somewhat similar to the branch of the black strange tree we encountered in front of the cemetery…” Zhao Qianying said suddenly.

Ouyang Ming was startled, then he nodded.

“If I’m not mistaken, this should also be the tentacles of Shadowroot, but how do they connect to these black demon corpses? The demon corpse was powerful because these tentacles secretly provided the demon corpse with demonic qi. If we don’t cut off the tentacle first, I’m afraid these demon corpses can’t be killed at all.” Liu Ming was silent for a long time, then he said slowly.

Ouyang Ming and Zhao Qianying were shocked. Although they had seen the black tentacle attached to the demon corpse, they were already in a tough battle against the demon corpse. How did they have time for that?

“I see…” Zhao Qianying nodded. When she was about to say something, the black tentacle that was lying limp on the ground raised like a snake.

“Back off!” Liu Ming tapped his feed and moved back instantly.

Zhao Qianying and Ouyang Ming also moved back in shock.

However, the black tentacle seemed to have no interest in the three of them at all. It swayed slightly in mid-air as if it was sensing something.

At the same time, the same thing happened to another tentacle that was cut off by Liu Ming not far away.
