No wonder this guy was chosen to guard the gate; he's really fierce.
However, Zu'an was not too alarmed. He glanced at Pei Mianman and said, "I should already know its weakness."
Pei Mianman wasn't stupid; her observation just now had given her her own judgment: "Its head!"
Those Taotie beasts had their reasons for trying to attack its head.
Zaun had only cut off its head, but hadn't completely destroyed it, which is why he mistakenly thought it was truly immortal.
At this moment, the Taotie whose tail had been grabbed and smashed around was still alive. It shakily got up from the ground and subconsciously tried to escape. It had obviously lost the courage to fight.
With a wave of his hand, the skeletal warrior brought the serrated shield that had fallen to the ground back to life, spinning and brushing past the gluttonous beast before returning to its grasp.
The gluttonous beast ran a few more steps, then its head fell off...
The skeleton warrior approached the Taotie that had been killed by the long spear on the wall, pulled the spear back, and then turned around, his red eyes coldly staring at the two from Zuan.
Zuan swallowed hard. Although he already knew the opponent's weakness, the terrifying combat power the opponent had just displayed meant that the two of them would definitely not be a match for him in a normal fight.
As he pondered his attack strategy, a sudden change occurred: a sharp tail pierced out from the skeleton warrior's forehead.
The skeleton warrior struggled to turn around and see who had killed it, but with its head impaled, it couldn't perform the simple action of turning its head.
Zuan and the other man could see clearly that there was a Taotie hiding under the beam. They didn't know when it had been lying in ambush there, but it took advantage of the moment when the skeleton warrior was off guard after killing its five companions to strike directly at a vital spot.
The skeleton warrior tried to raise its halberd to attack from behind, but as soon as it raised its hand, a terrifying tongue shot out and smashed its hand bones to pieces.
Immediately afterwards, the tail inside the skull lifted it into the air. The red light in the skeleton warrior's eyes finally faded completely, and his other hand fell limply to the ground with a thud.
Zuan originally intended to retrieve the shield, but when the Taotie came down from the beam, he completely abandoned the idea, because this Taotie was larger than any he had ever seen before, its size being several times that of an ordinary Taotie.
Pei Mianman's voice rang out: "I think we should leave here as soon as possible."
"That's exactly what I was thinking too." As soon as the words were spoken, the two of them took off running in perfect unison.
Although the various attacks from the Taotie had left some marks on the skeleton warrior's bones, they couldn't completely harm him. Now, this guy's tongue shattered his thick forearm bone. This strength was beyond their ability to deal with.
The giant Taotie roared and then strode heavily toward the two of them, its speed completely disproportionate to its size.
"Why isn't this thing eating the corpses of its companions anymore!" Zuan cursed inwardly, but there was nothing he could do now, so he could only run forward as fast as he could.
He had originally intended to choose some narrow passages to slow down the huge thing behind him, but the palace was so magnificent that he couldn't find any narrow spaces along the way.
After a while, the two came to a set of steps. Above the steps was a high platform. Their expressions changed slightly because, as far as they could see, there was a dead end after they reached the platform.
Just as the two were preparing for a desperate battle, the enormous Taotie behind them suddenly stopped and paced back and forth several feet away, staring at the high platform as if it were wary of something.
