In the canyon, Lin Shuguang and Liu Yue were blocked by a group of warriors on warhorses.
What made them unusual was that these were not living horses, but skeleton warhorses radiating an icy chill. The warriors riding them, clad in rusted armor, were all headless knights... Each held a war spear, as though they had come from the netherworld.
"Be careful. They're undead, resurrected from death, and they possess powerful corrosive abilities." Liu Yue's gaze was wary, but also somewhat bewildered. "Strange. Normally, these undead don't revive and appear in the outside world so easily. They should be wandering near the Underworld River... Could this have something to do with that terrifying inheritance?"
She instinctively looked at Lin Shuguang.
"Watch yourself." With those words, Lin Shuguang had already drawn the Slaughter Blade.
Afraid that Lin Shuguang did not understand how dangerous these undead were, Liu Yue hurriedly said, "These undead were all martial artists who experienced death. The Underworld River's contamination revived them as a new form of life. You must be careful when fighting them. They're said to have undying bodies. If you can't-"
She had not finished speaking.
Just then, a ripping detonation, like silk being torn, roared like a Demon God from the depths of hell, drowning out the rest of Liu Yue's words.
Boom! The earth shook!
Lin Shuguang wasted no words at all. In an instant, he unleashed a slash.
Without warning, all the ground beneath his feet burst apart and collapsed. Huge swaths of earth churned like waves, as though countless subterranean dragons were surging in every direction.
Almost in the blink of an eye, Lin Shuguang charged up to the undead squad and slashed down.
Crack!
Like a white rainbow piercing the sun, the headless knight facing him shattered in an instant.
