Seeing this, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying were slightly taken aback.
“5 demons seem to be entangled by these strange trees.” Zhao Qianying said with her ears moving slightly.
“Let’s go and take a look first.” Liu Ming hesitated for a moment, then he flew in the direction of the sound silently.
Several hundred meters away, a few demons were besieged by 8 thick black strange trees.
Liu Ming knew these demons. They were the Gaohe Family and Old Man Jackdaw whom he met once half a year ago.
But at this time, apart from Gaohe Yan and Old Man Jackdaw, there were only 2 Celestial State demons alive in the Gaohe Family, and there was only 1 family member beside Old Man Jackdaw.
Besides, the flower bud on a strange black tree was bulging and wriggling.
Both Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying knew that this strange tree must have devoured a Celestial State demon. The scream just now was made before the demon was swallowed.
Liu Ming didn’t intend to leave right away. Instead, he hid in a relatively secluded place with Zhao Qianying.
At this moment, the black flower buds on the tops of the 8 strange black trees were shooting black silks. These black silks had the thickness of an arm. The power was much greater than the ones Liu Ming encountered.
The remaining 5 people of Gaohe Yan’s party formed a circle with their backs to their backs. Various lights shone in their hands. They were trying their best to resist the attacks of the surrounding black strange trees.
Gaohe Yan was using a black bell magic weapon. Countless lightning-like black runes could be seen around the black bell. As the bell rang, black lightning arcs shot out from it.
2 30 meters long giant blue pythons were spurting blue breath beside Old Man Jackdaw.
The other 3 Celestial State demons also launched attacks of various colors.
However, even if they joined forces, they could barely block the attacks of the surrounding strange trees. Their attacks could not cause damage to these strange trees at all. Under such circumstances, it was not easy to get out of trouble.
Of course, if Gaohe Yan and Old Man Jackdaw who had attained Mystic Comprehending State wanted to leave, these strange trees, might not be able to stop them.
“Mr. Gaohe, these strange trees are not something we can resist at all. In my opinion, we should retreat.” Old Man Jackdaw struggled to control the 2 blue pythons to continuously condense a crystal clear wall in front of him. At the same time, he said to Gaohe Yan at the same time.

“So what if we can break through this area? According to your words, this is only the outer area of the Inner Abyss. With our current strength, it is impossible to do anything in the Inner Abyss.” Old Man Jackdaw snorted and said so.
During their conversation, there was a slight gap in the defense.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
A black silk instantly penetrated the blue python of Old Man Jackdaw, then it blurred and pierced through the last Celestial State member, a black-haired man, beside Old Man Jackdaw.
Blood gushed out of the black-haired man’s chest. He let out a miserable scream, then his body was pulled into the flower bud.
“Xi’er!” Old Man Jackdaw was taken aback, then he let out a mournful cry.
After the black-haired man was killed, the defense immediately crumbled.
There was a flash of light from the black flower bud on another strange tree. Countless black silks shot through the gap in the defense and took away a Celestial State demon of the Gaohe Family.
Whoosh!
This demon had no power to resist. He was dragged into the black flower bud before he could even scream.
Gaohe Yan was startled. Before he could react, 2 strange trees on the other side released black silks, bound the last Celestial State demon beside him, and tore him apart. The blood splattering scene was brutal.
“Mr. Gaohe, this Inner Abyss is too dangerous. If you want to continue, go on your own! I’m done with this.” After Old Man Jackdaw said to Gaohe Yan, without waiting for Gaohe Yan to reply, he made a gesture and condensed a giant phantasm aspect.
The 2 blue pythons flew back and entwined on the phantasm aspect. With a flash of blue light, Old Man Jackdaw turned into a blue phantom and dashed away from the Inner Abyss.
The blue phantom was as fast as lightning. Although the aura it emitted alarmed the surrounding black strange trees, he had already appeared on the horizon before these strange trees reacted.
Seeing this scene, Gaohe Yan’s expression changed.
At this moment, the surrounding black strange trees focused Gaohe Yan who was the only one left. The black silks shrouded Gaohe Yan like rain.
Gaohe Yan hurriedly spat a mouthful of blood into the black bell above him.
The bell spun and grew to the size of 30 meters. It was launching thick black lightning to the surroundings.
Within a radius of tens of meters, the space instantly turned into a world of black lightning.
In shock, Liu Ming put his arm around Zhao Qianying’s slim waist and stomped the ground with both feet to retreat swiftly. They were almost hit by the black lightning.
In the black lightning domain, 8 strange black trees immediately scattered away, seeming to be quite afraid of this lightning.
Gaohe Yan’s face was extremely pale, and blood surged out from his nose and mouth. It was obvious that performing this mystic art placed a huge toll on his body.
However, he preserved and waved his hand at the black bell. He turned into a black lightning and flew toward the Inner Abyss.
Obviously, he still didn’t want to give up!
“The intense spiritual power fluctuations here will cause unnecessary trouble, so let’s leave as soon as possible.” Not far away, Zhao Qianying said softly.
Liu Ming nodded and left the area with Zhao Qianying.
On the following journey, they did not encounter any danger. After half a quarter of an hour, they finally flew out of the black forest area and came to the sky above a black sandy land.
“Phew, we are finally out.” Zhao Qianying looked back at the black forest behind with lingering fear and breathe out lightly.
“What species these strange trees are? This is really unheard of.” Liu Ming pondered for a while and said so.
“Who cares. We have passed through them anyway, so why bother to think about those? We should hurry.” Zhao Qianying said with a grin.
“True. I don’t know what danger lies ahead. There is really no need to waste our energy here.” Liu Ming nodded, turned around, and looked at the area surrounded by the black fence.
“Will there be any danger hidden in this black desert?” Zhao Qianying said slowly, his eyes flickering.
“There is no danger in this desert. You can just relax.” Before Liu Ming could speak, Mo Tian appeared with a black flash.
“Oh, you recovered so quickly?” Liu Ming asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
“How is that possible? I’m only a bone hand now. How can I recover so swiftly? After passing through the desert, it will be the area where the Demon Abyss Tower is located. That is a truly dangerous place. Without my guidance, you won’t be able to pass through the area.” Mo Tian said lightly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Can senior tell us what danger are you referring to?” Zhao Qianying swallowed and asked.
“You can see for yourself later.” Mo Tian chuckled without giving further explanation.
Liu Ming frowned and snorted softly, then he continued to fly forward with Zhao Qianying.
Although Mo Tian said that there was no danger ahead, he still did not deactivate Che Huan Totem.
As Mo Tian said, they did not encounter any danger in the desert. This black desert was just an ordinary desert with some weak demonic creatures living in it. They even hid far away when they found Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying approaching.
In just 15 minutes, they flew out of the desert area, and a large stretch of black fence appeared in front of them.
There was nothing unusual about this black fence, but the area surrounded by a reddish mist faintly exuded a decaying aura of death.
“Is this the danger you’re talking about?” Liu Ming asked with a flicker of eyes.
“Yes, these red mist are nothing more than ordinary corpse poison gas, the real danger is still inside.” Mo Tian nodded and said.
Hearing this, Liu Ming looked forward with purple light in his eyes.
Through these unusually tall black fences and the mist, he could vaguely see dilapidated gray-white buildings and stone tablets standing everywhere inside. It looked a bit like a huge cemetery.
This red mist had a great impact on the eyesight. With Liu Ming’s eyesight, he could only see hundreds of meters away. Moreover, the vicinity of the cemetery seemed to be shrouded by a strange force. His Divine Thought couldn’t spread out at all.
Deep in the cemetery, occasionally 1 or 2 huge figures could be seen walking slowly. They were in human form, but Liu Ming couldn’t see clearly due to the long distance.
“What are those walking around?” Liu Ming looked at the huge figure in the cemetery and asked with a solemn expression.
Although Divine Thought couldn’t scan the area, Liu Ming could still feel the intense corpse aura and spiritual pressure. Each of these was not inferior to the Celestial State demon.
“This is an ancient demon cemetery. Those inside are some demon corpses.” Mo Tian said.
“Demon corpses, are those the corpses of ancient demons?” Zhao Qianying asked.
“This is not necessarily the case. The demon corpses here do have the corpses of the ancient demons, but most of them are demons who wanted to pass through here to go to the Demon Abyss Tower. However, after they died here, they were gradually converted into demon corpses that wandered here all day.” Mo Tian said lightly.
Hearing this, Zhao Qianying’s pretty face became a little unsightly.
TL: This is the place that Mo Tian wanted to get the demon corpse from?
