Chapter 1353: Ancient Demon Corpse
After Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying stopped in front of the cemetery for a while, they chose a place where there seemed to be no demon corpses and entered through the gaps in the huge black fence.
As a result, as soon as they stepped into the cemetery, the surrounding red mist rolled violently as if alive, and rushed toward them.
The black light circle around them emitted sizzling sounds when in contact with the red mist. The black light circle became dim as if it was corroded.
A trace of surprise flashed in Liu Ming’s eyes, then he snorted softly and changed gesture.
At this moment, a black and white stone tablet emerged out of thin air and cast a gray light circle around them. It easily repelled the surrounding red mist.
“From now on, I won’t show up easily. But with the Celestial Tablet covering your aura, except for the ancient demon corpses, other demon corpses should not be able to perceive your existence, but remember not to stay in one place for too long .” Mo Tian’s voice sounded in their ears.
Hearing this, Liu Ming exchanged a glance with Zhao Qianying before moving forward.
Regarding the method of pa.s.sing this ancient demon cemetery, Liu Ming discussed it with Mo Tian for a long time. Originally, he planned to fly directly from a high alt.i.tude, but he was directly rejected by Mo Tian. Because of the demon corpse miasma, he could not fly too high. If he did, he would expose himself and be besieged easily. It was better to walk on foot.
They could only see no more than 300 meters in the red mist, so they walked very carefully.
As a result, in less than a moment, the front left red mist rolled. Some heavy and slow footsteps sounded from it as if something was slowly approaching.
Liu Ming was slightly shocked. He hastily grabbed Zhao Qianying and hid behind a dilapidated building.
Accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps, a figure several meters tall came out of the mist. It was a demon corpse.
This demon corpse was dark red in color, and it looked mutilated. Many places were even directly pierced with big holes. Some disgusting yellow liquid slowly oozed out from the wounds.
However, the demon corpse’s eyes were glowing with white light. In the red mist, the eyes looked like 2 large white lanterns, quite eye-catching.
The demon corpse’s movements seemed rather sluggish. While walking, it turned its head from side to side.
Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying immediately held their breath. Liu Ming looked at the gray light circle condensed by the Celestial Tablet above him, and he felt a slight chill in his heart.
This gray light circle was quite conspicuous in the surrounding red mist.
“Don’t worry, these are just ordinary demon corpses turned by some intruders in the past. They distinguish the enemy through aura, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Most of the demon corpses are this kind.” Mo Tian’s voice sounded in Liu Ming’s mind, making Liu Ming heave a sigh of relief.
Just as Mo Tian said, the demon corpse walked past in front of them without noticing them. It soon went into the rest mist on the other side again.
Seeing this, Zhao Qianying couldn’t help but breathe out softly. She was relieved too.
“It seems that these ordinary demon corpses really can’t sense our aura.” Liu Ming glanced at Zhao Qianying and smiled lightly.
Zhao Qianying blushed slightly, nodded, and did not speak.
With this experience, they continued to walk forward at ease.
However, as they went deeper, the demon corpses wandering around became more and more frequent. However, with the protection of the Celestial Tablet, they were not found by any demon corpses.
After such an hour, they came to a rather magnificent ruined wall in the depths of the cemetery.
The red mist here was actually a little lighter. Liu Ming could see more than 600 meters away.
They walked along the city wall-like ruins for a long time before coming to a flat square.
There were many stone pillars standing near the square. Nearly half of them had been broken and damaged. There were demonic patterns on the stone pillars. It seemed to be some ancient text.
There seemed to be no demon corpses around here as no rumbling footsteps could be heard.
But Liu Ming felt a little uneasy instead.
“This seems to be an altar…” Zhao Qianying looked around a few times, carefully identified the demonic pattern on the stone pillar, and said so.
“Let’s get out of here quickly. I somehow sense danger in this place.” Liu Ming looked around and suggested.
Zhao Qianying was slightly startled, and she nodded hastily.
Liu Ming’s perception of danger was extremely sensitive. She had experienced it many times along the way, so she couldn’t help but not believe it.
Just when they were about to pa.s.s through the square, a sudden change occurred!
The ground suddenly shook violently.
Rumble!
The ground in front split open suddenly, revealing a thick crack more than 30 meters long. Countless black air swarmed out and condensed into extremely thick tentacles. The tentacles rolled toward them at an astonishing speed.
They were astounded, but their reaction was also extremely fast. The moment the ground cracked, they had already flown to the side extremely swiftly, narrowly avoiding the black tentacles.
“Roar!“
There was a roar from the crack. The next moment, a giant black hand stretched out and slapped toward them.
The surface of the giant black hand was covered with black scales, and the nails were long and sharp. In the blink of an eye, it caught up with the two of them.
Liu Ming stopped, and his fists emitted black light.
A burst of crackling sound came from his body. His body grew by nearly half in size. Circles of black demonic patterns emerged on his arm. The black imprint on his forehead shone brightly.
“Ha!“
With a low shout, he punched out fiercely.
A huge black fist the size of a house quickly condensed in front of Liu Ming and collided with the giant black hand.
Boom!
The black fist shadow suddenly burst apart, shaking away the giant black hand with a huge force.
Liu Ming also staggered for a dozen steps before stabilizing himself under the huge force.
The crack on the ground continued to expand, then a ginormous figure slowly stood up from inside. It was a black demon corpse.
Liu Ming was shocked slightly.
The body of this demon corpse was also covered with a layer of black scales. In addition to the 2 blood-red eyes on the face, there was a green vertical eye on its forehead. It was emitting a strange green light.
Its size was several times larger than the ordinary demon corpses Liu Ming had seen before, which was more than 300 meters. The aura it emitted was far higher than those ordinary demon corpses.
“Be careful, this is an ancient demon corpse. The third eye on its forehead can see you. Although the Celestial Tablet can cover your aura, it has no effect on it.” Mo Tian’s voice sounded in Liu Ming’s mind.
The black demon corpse let out a deep roar. When it looked at Liu Ming, the giant vertical eye shot countless green silks at him.
As Liu Ming was about to move, a purple light flew out behind him. It was Zhao Qianying who launched an oval purple mirror.
Zhao Qianying chanted and launched several symbols. The purple mirror turned into the size of a small mountain and blocked before them.
As soon as the green silks fell on the purple mirror, the mirror immediately shone and reflected the green silks.
Liu Ming’s eyes flashed, and countless thoughts pa.s.sed through his mind. This demon corpse has formidable power and seemingly impeccable defense. Instead of fighting it, running away is a better choice.
If this ancient demon corpse moves as slowly as other demon corpses, there is a high possibility of escaping.
“Don’t even think about running away. The ancient demon corpse is different from those ordinary demon corpses wandering around. It has been here for tens of thousands of years, so its intelligence is already close to maturity. Once it determined its target, it will never let it go easily. Rather than being chased by it in the cemetery and attracting more danger, it is better to kill it here. If you 2 work together, it should be possible.” Mo Tian’s voice sounded in their minds.
Liu Ming frowned upon hearing this.
At this moment, seeing that the green silks were ineffective, the black demon corpse let out a groan and stopped shooting green silks.
The giant demon hand raised and palmed toward them with 5 fingers spread.
Before the palm landed, a suffocating wind pressure already acted on them.
Liu Ming snorted, waved his hands, and released 12 Mountain River Pearls around him.
With a flick of his fingers, all the Mountain River Pearls merged into a 300 meters giant yellow bead. It emitted an intense yellow light like a meteor. It collided with the demon palm.
Crack!
There was a crisp bone cracking sound from the arm of the black demon corpse. Its arm was directly broken by the huge force of Mountain River Pearl.
Even though the demon corpse’s defense was exceptionally tough, it was still wounded by the combined force of the 12 Mountain River Pearls cast by the demonized Liu Ming.
The demon corpse let out a painful roar. Its eyes showed a hint of fear, then its huge body retreated backward. At the same time, the vertical eye launched a thick green light beam at Zhao Qianying.
Zhao Qianying looked startled, stretched out her jade finger, and was about to drive her purple mirror to block the green light.
“Wait, there’s something wrong with this green light. Your mirror can’t resist it.” Liu Ming’s eyes flashed purple, and his figure flickered in front of Zhao Qianying and blocked with the giant yellow bead.
The giant yellow bead turned into a 600 meters yellow mountain 600 meters.
The green light beam hit the mountain, emitting a rumbling and cracking sound. The mountain trembled violently.
TL: Maybe it’s just Mo Tian who wanted him to kill the ancient demon corpse?
