Don't wait for them to transform - attack immediately.

Walk along the path and you will run into a new type of enemy just around the corner. At first it may not seem to be impressive but as soon as you get closer, it will transform. The new form is much faster and can perform deadly strikes. You should take advantage of the fact that the transformation takes 2-3 seconds. If you run up to the creature and attack it right away, it is highly possible that you will slay the monster before it even transforms.

First, take out two opponents next to the wagon. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
First, take out two opponents next to the wagon.

Kill the first creature and turn left. There is Shriving Stone not far from another monster. Then, head to the middle, where a broken wagon is situated (there is a Soul of an Unknown Traveler next to it).

When opponents are near the Ghru Shaman, they can transform immediately. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
When opponents are near the Ghru Shaman, they can transform immediately.

You will face several enemies, one of which is a Shaman on the left. His special attack allows him to call nearby Ghrus that transform right away and are ready to fight. Thus, before you get any closer, kill two Ghrus in the middle. Other two will jump out of a gulf above. When that happens, jump away from the Shaman and deal with the remaining two creatures. When you kill the last of them, head to the stone gate.

The gate will lead you to the bridge. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
The gate will lead you to the bridge.

There is a single opponent above it (the entrance is behind the gate, on the left). Slay the creature, collect Titanite Shard and go left where the path turns. You will run into a female enemy who will give hell of a fight.

Kill the creature to gain valuable items. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
Kill the creature to gain valuable items.

If you get caught in a series of blows, you will receive massive damage. Dodge her strikes but maneuver between left and right, because when you move backwards, she may still hit you (a rapid charge towards you). Use Estus Flash whenever the creatures rolls away from you, and strike when she finishes her own attack. Roll over in such a way that will allow you to end behind her and perform powerful blows. Defeat the creature and obtain Butcher Knife, and when you investigate the path she came from, you will find Brigand Axe, Brigand set and Brigand Twindaggers. Head to the gate, to a larger bridge.

Lure your enemies one by one or quickly run through the bridge and reach the bonfire. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
Lure your enemies one by one or quickly run through the bridge and reach the bonfire.

Draw attention to the number of enemies that are gathered here. If it is too much for you, you should quickly leave this place and head to Halfway Fortress bonfire, not far from here. On the other hand, if you want to take them down, remember to drag single enemies away from the bridge towards the gate. This ought to make the whole combat easier. You can also try to push them into the abyss but try not to fall yourself. After the battle, pick up Ember that is next to the Shaman.

Jump down to collect items. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
Jump down to collect items.

Draw your attention to a cave which is situated under the bridge. On the left, (having the bridge behind you) you can locate a safe descent (only minor damage). The path will turn towards the bridge and lead you to the cave. Watch out for hounds and stay away from the edge (you don't want them to throw you down). You will find Morne's Ring and Braille Divine Tome of Carim, which you can give to Irinia in the Cleansing Chapel (That is, if you opened her cell in Undead Settlement).

The bonfire is right behind the bridge. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
The bonfire is right behind the bridge.

Once you collect the tome, go up and jump down in front of the gate, at the bridge. Go lower to reach the bonfire. You will come across two knights: Anri and Horace. Talk with them and receive Blue Sentinels covenant.

The first thrust is the easiest to dodge and gives you a lot of time to get behind your opponents back and perform a powerful blow. - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
The first thrust is the easiest to dodge and gives you a lot of time to get behind your opponent's back and perform a powerful blow.

The path that leads to swamps is not an easy one. You will face several enemies on your way (if you stick to the path. If you go straight, you can avoid this place and jump down on a rocky terrain twice, where you will a Soul of an Unknown Traveler) and a large group of foes at the end of the road. They have a large log that they will use to charge. This will leave you a lot of time to maneuver and strike them from behind. Just keep in mind that it is way easier to fight one creature than an entire group, so drag them away from each other, or kill them quickly enough.

Although swamps are a large and dangerous area, you can find a number of interesting items there - Road of Sacrifices - Walkthrough - Dark Souls III Game Guide & Walkthrough
