"You're here, Liu Ming." Ouyang Ming greeted him.
"Could it be that you've found the passage to the second floor?" Liu Ming landed beside Ouyang Ming in a flash and asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, the passage should be in this hall. However, it'll be a little troublesome to pass through." Ouyang Ruo nodded.
Liu Ming looked at the hall when he heard this.
The two doors of the hall were wide open. It was pitch-black inside, but there was some kind of restriction at the door that prevented one's divine sense from penetrating it.
Liu Ming frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, a piercing sound came from afar.
The two of them turned around and saw a purple escape light flying close to the ground. A moment later, the escape light faded and Zhao Qianying's figure appeared. Before she could stand still, she cupped her hands and asked Liu Ming and Ouyang Ruo,
"Brother Liu, Fellow Ouyang, did you find anything?"
"There's a passage in this hall that leads to the top. However, there are two Demonic Corpse Guards nearby. They're quite troublesome to deal with." Ouyang Ming nodded.
Zhao Qianying's expression changed slightly when he heard this.
"Fellow Ouyang, have you fought with them?" Liu Ming asked solemnly.
Ouyang Ming nodded and said, "I discovered this place by accident, and I noticed the passageway after I entered the hall. However, I was ambushed by those two Devil Corpse Guards. Fortunately, I was on guard and immediately retreated when I noticed that the situation was bad. By the way, the two Demonic Corpses don't seem to be able to leave the hall. They didn't chase after me after I retreated. "
"There are three of us now. We should be able to deal with the two Demonic Corpses." Zhao Qianying glanced at Liu Ming and Ouyang Ruo and said.
"I think so too. That's why I waited for the two of you to come so that we can go in together." Ouyang Ruo nodded.
"If that's the case, let's go in. We've already lagged behind the people of the Liu clan. We need to hurry up." Liu Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation as he spoke.
Naturally, Ouyang Ming and Zhao Qianying had no objections to this. After a brief discussion, the three of them put on alert expressions.
With a flip of her hand, Zhao Qianying summoned her purple cauldron, which spouted out a vast expanse of purple light that enveloped her head. A black light flashed in Ouyang Ming's hand and a broad-backed, ghost-headed saber appeared in his grasp. The saber emitted a faint ghostly wail. Although Liu Ming didn't summon any magic treasures, his body was also glowing with a faint black light.
After doing all that, the three of them stepped into the hall in front of them.
The light in the hall was a little dim, but it had a limited effect on their vision.
From the outside, it didn't seem like much. However, after entering the hall, Liu Ming discovered that it was abnormally spacious. It was at least ten thousand feet wide and dozens of feet tall.
The hall was empty, with only a dozen or so giant stone pillars supporting the roof. In the deepest part of the hall, there was a spiral staircase, and at the end of the staircase was a dark entrance.
Although Liu Ming couldn't use his Divine Sense to sense what was inside the entrance, his intuition told him that it should be the entrance to the second floor.
As Ouyang Ming had said, there were two black figures standing beside the staircase. They were two Demonic Corpse Guards dressed in grey armor.
The skin of the two Demonic Corpses looked very rough, like dry tree bark. Although they weren't tall, the aura they emitted was not any weaker than the Ancient Demonic Corpses they had encountered in the cemetery.
The strangest thing was that the backs of the two Demonic Corpses seemed to be connected to a black vine-like object as thick as an arm. The other end of the vine-like object sank into the ground of the hall.
When the two Demonic Corpse Guards saw Liu Ming and the others enter, they let out a roar and instantly turned into two afterimages, quickly pouncing towards Liu Ming and the others.
Liu Ming's expression changed slightly. Since entering the cemetery, the ordinary Demonic Corpses and Ancient Demonic Corpses he had encountered were generally slower. This was the first time he had encountered such a fast Demonic Corpse.
Whoosh!
One of the Demonic Corpses charged towards Zhao Qianying, while the other one pounced towards him.
"Be careful, these Demonic Corpses are very strong and their bodies are abnormally hard!" Ouyang Ming hurriedly shouted. He suddenly grabbed the black saber with both hands and swung it forward.
A whistling sound rang out from the saber. Then, with a flash of pitch-black saber light, the black saber suddenly turned into a black saber light that was over ten feet long. It slashed towards the Demonic Corpse that was pouncing towards Zhao Qianying.
Liu Ming's strength was the strongest among the three of them, so he didn't need his help.
The black Demonic Corpse let out a low roar, but its body didn't stop in the slightest. It stretched out a jet-black Demonic Claw and clashed head-on with Ouyang Ming's black saber.
Clang!
The black saber light was shattered in a single strike, and the black saber was sent flying. Ouyang Ming only felt a huge force attack through the hilt of the saber, and his body trembled as he was also sent flying.
Zhao Qianying was shocked when she saw this scene.
A jet-black Demonic Claw appeared in front of her at this moment. It left a trail of afterimages in its wake. Then, a shrill and sharp wind swept towards her even before the Demonic Claw arrived.
Zhao Qianying felt a chill in her heart. She raised her arm, and pointed her fair finger at the huge purple cauldron above her head in a dignified manner.
The huge purple cauldron rotated in the air. Then, it suddenly emitted a burst of purple light, and swelled several times in size. Then, it pounded towards the jet-black Demonic Claw.
"Bang!" a loud explosion was heard!
The Demonic Corpse's other claw struck the huge purple cauldron, and sent it flying away.
Zhao Qianying's body shook violently, and she was sent flying along with the huge purple cauldron. She only managed to stabilize her body after she had landed more than ten feet away. Her chest was heaving up and down, and her complexion was somewhat pale.
Ouyang Ming had already fought against this Demonic Corpse before. So, he had gained some experience in dealing with it. So, he stamped his feet on the ground after he had stabilized his body. Then, he swung the black saber in his hand at the same time, and issued three half-moon-shaped saber lights that were several feet in size. They then slashed towards the Demonic Corpse.
The three half-moon-shaped saber lights were extremely fast. They cut through the void with a burst of ghostly wailing sounds, and slashed at the Demonic Corpse's body in a flash.
The half-moon-shaped saber lights were shattered in an instant. However, the Demonic Corpse was also forced to retreat a step. Its follow-up attack towards Zhao Qianying had been forcibly interrupted.
Then, countless thin purple threads shot over from the side at this moment. They intertwined with each other, and transformed into a huge purple net that enveloped the Demonic Corpse. Zhao Qianying had steadied her body, and had activated the huge purple cauldron to launch a counterattack.
The Demonic Corpse had been caught off-guard, and had been trapped by the huge purple net. However, it had struggled free in the next moment due to its enormous strength.
Zhao Qianying had finally understood what Ouyang Ming had meant when he had said that these Demonic Corpse Guards possessed boundless strength and had extremely hard bodies.
When the two of them struck the Demonic Corpse Guards with their demonic treasures, they could not injure them in the slightest. The Demonic Corpse Guards' punches and kicks seemed ordinary, but their offensive power was shockingly great. They could often send the two of them flying along with their demonic treasures with a single blow.
However, the two of them had quickly adapted to the Demonic Corpse Guards' attacks. When the two of them joined forces, they were able to maintain a stalemate against one Demonic Corpse Guard.
On the other side, two black shadows were chasing each other in the hall. They left behind afterimages as they moved up and down. It was impossible to follow them with the naked eye.
It was Liu Ming, who was using the Tri-Shadow Movement Technique to chase the other Demonic Corpse Guard.
Although this Demonic Corpse Guard was fast, he was also quite proficient in movement techniques. Thus, he planned to compete with the Demonic Corpse Guard. On one hand, he could observe the characteristics of this black Demonic Corpse Guard, and on the other hand, he wanted to see if Ouyang Ruo and Liu Ming could deal with it before making any further plans.
At this moment, he saw that the situation on Ouyang Ruo's side had stabilized. His heart relaxed, and his figure stopped. He was like a nail that had been nailed to the ground. Then, he turned around at lightning speed to face the Demonic Corpse Guard that was pouncing at him from behind.
The Demonic Corpse Guard had chased Liu Ming for a long time. When it saw that Liu Ming had finally stopped, it immediately let out a low roar. One of its demonic hands became blurry, and it went straight for Liu Ming's chest like a sharp blade. It seemed that it wanted to dig out Liu Ming's heart.
Liu Ming narrowed his eyes, and the black mark on his forehead shone brightly. Mysterious black demonic marks appeared on the surface of his skin. A burst of crackling sounds came from his body, and his whole body instantly grew a lot taller.
In the next moment, his body suddenly turned. His black fist, which had nearly doubled in size, went to meet the Demonic Corpse Guard's demonic claw. It was like a bolt of lightning. Suddenly, a huge invisible force surged out.
"Bang!" A muffled sound was heard!
Liu Ming's body staggered back a few steps before he could stabilize his body. He felt a burning pain on his fist. He saw that there were several small cracks on his fist, and blood quickly flowed out. However, after a flash of white light, the wounds closed, and he was as good as before.
The Demonic Corpse Guard's body was also jolted back. It stabilized its body almost at the same time as Liu Ming. It let out a low roar, and pounced at him again.
Liu Ming snorted coldly. He tapped his foot on the ground, and shot backwards.
The physical strength of this Demonic Corpse Guard was not inferior to his. Moreover, its body was more tenacious than his. Continuing to fight hand-to-hand was obviously disadvantageous to him.
A red light flashed in the Demonic Corpse Guard's eyes. The Demonic Qi on its body surged. It spread its five fingers and fiercely clawed at the void toward Liu Ming. Countless slender black claw lights shot out, forming a crisscrossing claw net. In the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of Liu Ming.
Liu Ming turned his hand calmly. A burst of thunder and lightning sounded. A piece of black brocade emerged and wrapped around his body, turning into a black thunder pattern robe.
It was the Leize Muslin. In the past few days, he had almost refined it. It was just the right time to test its power!
As a few incantations came from Liu Ming's mouth, the surface of the black thunder pattern robe suddenly burst with thunder and lightning. A series of golden thunder arcs shot out. The black claw net was easily torn apart and dissipated.
Liu Ming was delighted. This Leize Muslin was sacrificially refined by him with the power of the Heavenly Thunder Spell. With the restraining effect of the golden thunder and lightning on the Demonic Qi, its power was not weaker than when it was in the hands of Gao He Yan.
Then he waved one hand, and the Magic Marrow Green Demonic Blade turned into a cyan saber light. In a blur, it appeared in front of the Demonic Corpse Guard. The cyan saber light shone brightly, and with a whistling sound, it slashed down.
The Demonic Corpse Guard let out a low roar. It waved a pitch-black claw, trying to hit the cyan saber light away with great force.
