Chapter 3938 Aswan

As I fought relentlessly against the demon possessing Mabarak, I felt the demonic energy within me growing heavier and heavier, and my consciousness gradually became out of control. In the end, I defeated the demon possessing Mabarak and grabbed its neck.

By this time, my body was completely out of my control. I never imagined that the Black Demon God, which was gradually taking over my body, would try to devour the demonic energy of the monster on Mabarak's body.

I can't even withstand the demonic energy of the Black Demon God. If I were to devour that demon as well, wouldn't that be the death of me?

As the demonic aura emanating from Mabarak continued to flood into my body, I felt my body couldn't take it anymore. My blood vessels swelled up, feeling like they were about to burst, and even my eyeballs were throbbing with pain.

This dark demon doesn't care at all whether I live or die.

Just when I felt I was about to die, suddenly, a figure appeared beside me.

"Angkor!" Kassan exclaimed, flustered and somewhat at a loss.

I glanced back at Kassan, wanting to say something, but when I opened my mouth, the voice wasn't mine; only a cold, single word came out: "Get out!"

Kassan seemed to realize that I was no longer in control of my body. The next moment, without hesitation, he thrust his sword into me.

However, Kassan's magic sword did not land on me. It was intercepted by a massive amount of demonic energy less than half a meter away from my body.

“Angkor…you’re going to go mad, people will die!” Kassan shouted in terror.

I knew this would be the outcome, but I could no longer control my body.

Just then, I was struck hard on the head. I don't know who hit me with a club. My vision went black, the world spun around me, and the demonic energy in my body quickly gathered back into me. I immediately passed out.

I don't know how much time passed, but a stench entered my nostrils, and I gagged, sitting up abruptly from the ground.

"Brother Wu... are you alright? You really scared me to death just now." Kassan kept looking me up and down.

Memories flooded back like a tidal wave. I suddenly remembered that I had used the power of the Black Demon God, who had defeated and devoured the demon possessing Mabarak. When Kassan came to save me, I was hit on the back with a club.

"I'm fine. Who knocked me out?" I asked Kassan.

"It's me." A voice came from behind me. I turned around and saw that it was Zhang Qing'an.

"Comrade Zhang, didn't you go to hunt down Huo Qingfeng?" I suddenly remembered.

“That’s right, I went to chase after Huo Qingfeng, but he was no match for me and ran away. When I went to chase him, he quickly set up a magic array to block my way. I thought that by the time I broke the array, he would be long gone, so I turned back to help you guys. When I came back, I saw that you almost suffered a qi deviation.” Zhang Qingan explained.

“Brother Wu, it was a plan I discussed with Senior Zhang. I went ahead to distract you so that Senior Zhang could launch a sneak attack. If you really went mad, there would be no survivors here, and we would all lose our lives,” Kasang added.

Hearing Kassan say that, I thought to myself that these two were really cunning; they even tricked me when they teamed up.

However, this is also the best way. Only by knocking me unconscious will the demonic energy, without my willpower to support it, quickly recede.

I was still a little worried, so I quickly asked, "Kassan, how are Mabarak and the demon possessing him?"

“You absorbed a lot of the demonic energy from that monster. After I knocked you unconscious, the monster left Mabarak’s body. After the monster left, Mabarak was completely exhausted and had no strength to resist. Kassan finished him off with a sword strike, killing Mabarak. Then we took you and escaped from that hall,” Zhang Qingan said again.

What a waste! With such a high level of cultivation, Mabarak didn't even use the Blood Refining Orb to absorb any of it.

I was knocked unconscious at the time, so I couldn't inhale anything.

However, the Black Demon God used my body to absorb some of the demonic aura possessing Mabarak, and I wonder what effect this will have on me.

The demonic energy within me is too chaotic. I previously absorbed a bit of the demonic energy of the Demon King Bo Xun, and my body was infused with the demonic energy of the Black Demon God. Now, I have also absorbed a portion of the aura of the demon that Mabalak possessed. The auras of the three demons have merged into one, which means I am heading down the path of evil cultivation with no turning back.

"Kassan, what is that dog-headed monster attached to Mabarak?" I asked, very curious.

“It should be Aswan. It’s an extremely evil monster, a powerful being in Philippine legends. It’s estimated that the people of the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary used it as a totem. When Mabarak realized he was no match for you, he summoned Aswan to possess him. He was really unlucky; he didn’t expect that you would possess the power of a higher-level monster, the Black Demon God,” Kassan said again.

I looked around and realized that we were in an abandoned, dilapidated house.

"We should still be in the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary's lair, right? How are Brother Gu and the others doing?" I asked again.

“Yes, the outside is full of people from the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary. We’ve turned their stronghold upside down. Brother Gu and the others should be safe now, and they’re not too far from us. I’ll take you to them now,” Kassan said solemnly.

“There are more than a dozen elders around the Blood Priest, and Huo Qingfeng has also escaped. The Blood Priest’s cultivation level is at least at the mid-stage of Earth Immortal. It won’t be easy for us to escape from here.” Zhang Qing’an was very worried.

“The key is that all the thousands of people in the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary are mobilized, searching everywhere for our whereabouts. We should first go find Brother Gu and Brother Luo, gather together, and then think of a way to escape.” Kassan also looked worried.

I responded and took out an invisibility talisman from my body and activated it. Then, the three of us left the dilapidated house, intending to meet up with Brother Gu and the others.

Kassan can pinpoint their presence and knows their location. By following Kassan, we can find them.

As soon as we stepped out of that dilapidated house, we saw a flurry of people outside, hurrying about. The people from the Crimson Shadow Temple were all carrying magical artifacts and searching everywhere for us.
