"Is that... a Corpse Demon?"
Looking at the dark-red humanoid monster, Zhou Xu was somewhat uncertain.
According to what he had learned so far, the form of a Corpse Demon seemed to be related to the target of the sacrifice. He had seen a Corpse Demon that looked like a giant rat, and another that resembled a giant.
But neither of them looked anything like the dark-red creature before him.

In that instant, Zhou Xu fully realized that the monster before him was different from the Corpse Demons he had seen before.
Although the Corpse Demons of the past had been enormous, to powerful experts, they were merely punching bags that could take a beating. Their main threat lay in the harm they could inflict on ordinary civilians and soldiers.
