The tenancy must be stated as "joint tenants with the right of survivorship".
they were property of slave owners(the people who brought them form the market).
It means to guarantee to the people of the United States at that time, and to their descendants (their posterity) all of the advantages of freedom. The question contains a small but significant error. It's "blessings" not "blessing." The entire clause is "...to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity..." The blessings of liberty refers to all of the benefits that are afforded by having liberty. Free speech, the right to peaceably assemble, freedom of religion, the right to own property, the right to travel freely within and between states, etc. These and many others are the blessings of liberty. It goes beyond the mere implication that liberty is a blessing. Another thing missing from the question is phrase "to secure." To secure means that one of the purposes of the Constitution, and the government specified by it, to make sure that these blessings of liberty will be guaranteed to the people by the power of that government. For example, since one of the blessings of liberty is the right to own property, then suppose that you have a dollar. That dollar is your property. If someone steals that dollar from you, then that person has interfered with your right to own property. It is the government's job to secure your right to property by providing for a remedy if somebody violates that right. In this case, the government declares that it is a crime to steal other people's property. The government will attempt to find and punish someone who has deprived a citizen of his or her property right. This is how the government secures the blessing of that particular liberty. The last part is "to ourselves and our posterity." In order to understand what that means, we have to look at the beginning of the Preamble. The preamble is really one big long sentence. The sentence begins with "We the people of the United States." So the word "ourselves" means the people of the United States. "Our posterity" means the children of the people of the United States, and their children's children, and their children's children's children, and so on. So, taken all together, that clause of the Preamble means "to provide for the guarantee of all of the blessings that are afforded by having liberty, and to extend that guarantee to both us, the people, and our children, and our children's children, forever.

It does not void the deed in its entirety. A divorce voids the survivorship factor in a tenancy by the entirety because only married people can hold property as TBE. In most states the TBE would default to a tenancy in common but state laws vary and you would need to check your state laws.

The right of survivorship literally means that a will is not required. That is, between two people (A and B, for example) who are co-tenants with right of survivorship to a piece of property, the one of A and B who is alive after the other's death will own the property in full. So if A dies first, B will own the property outright, and if B dies first, A will own the property outright. So in any case, right of survivorship by its very existence means that a will is not required regarding that particular item of property only.

A Survivorship Deed is an arrangement for owning real property by which a person(s) becomes entitled to a greater interest in jointly owned property by reason of her having survived another person who had an interest in property. A survivorship deed is one that creates a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship or a tenancy-by-the-entirety for legally married couples. A survivorship deed that creates a joint tenancy can name any number of grantees but they must each have an equal interest in the property. If four own the property by survivorship and one dies the other three will each own a one-third interest. The survivorship aspect means that when one dies their interest passes to the survivors automatically with no need for probate. If two people own a property by survivorship and one dies, the survivor will become the sole owner with no need of probate. As joint tenants die the survivors only need to record their death certificate in the land records to clear the title of the decedent's interest.
