Chapter 3947 Finally, I don't have to die.

Seeing that the patriarch had struck the blood priest with two consecutive bolts of heavenly lightning, yet he was completely unharmed, I felt a sense of despair.

Who would have thought that just when things seemed hopeless, a new path would open up before them?

Good heavens, Chilang actually swallowed all the fruits he had picked from the Demon Cage Grass.

This Demon Cage Grass was cultivated by the people of the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary for countless years, at the cost of countless lives, just to produce this little bit of fruit, and then this spendthrift Chilang ate it all in one go.

I feel that the fruit was not fully ripe.

In any case, Chilang had completely risen to prominence at this point.

A thick aura of blood emanated from him, and his eyes turned red, glowing brightly.

The magical swords that were originally floating above his head seemed about to fall, but after he swallowed the fruits, they immediately began to buzz loudly, as if each magical sword contained world-destroying energy.

Upon seeing Chilang's current appearance, the blood priest was stunned for a moment, and an incredulous expression appeared on his hideous face.

With immense power emanating from him, Chilang roared and swung his magic sword. Immediately, all the magic swords floating above his head shot towards the demon possessing the blood priest.

The blood priest immediately brandished his scepter, deflecting each of the incoming magical swords.

However, the magic sword that had been parried immediately turned back and continued its frenzied attack on the blood priest.

A moment later, Chilang also rushed forward with his magic sword and engaged in a fierce battle with the demon possessing the blood priest.

Chi Lang's veins bulged, his face turned red, and he looked like he was about to burst at any moment.

Others don't understand his state of mind, but I do.

Because I once swallowed the fruit of the Rafflesia arboreum, and even ate it raw. Once that fruit entered my stomach, an immense surge of energy coursed through my body. Only by constantly squandering this energy could I alleviate some of the excruciating pain that felt like my body was about to explode.

I only ate one fruit of the Rafflesia arboreum, but that spendthrift Chilang ate a whole bunch of them. He was even more reckless than I was back then.

I wonder if that brat left us any.

Regardless, Chilang was incredibly brave at this moment, practically in the form of the God of War Lu Bu. He fought the demon possessing the Blood Priest with ease, even showing signs of suppressing it.

However, the power of this Demon Cage Grass fruit has only just begun to show, and Chilang should become even more ferocious later on.

Seeing that Chilang had stabilized the situation, we all breathed a sigh of relief.

Damn it, at least I don't have to die anymore.

At this moment, the few of us who were stunned quickly swallowed some pills from Xue Family Pharmacy. Then, I dragged my battered body and carefully walked towards Brother Gu.

When I went over to take a look, I found that Brother Gu had already fainted, and there was a pool of blood on the ground.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Brother Gu had other injuries on his body, with many cuts and wounds, presumably sustained on the Demon Cage Grass.

I was wondering why Brother Gu was killed in one move by that blood priest. It turns out that Brother Gu was already seriously injured.

When he fainted just now, I thought he was joking. I even thought Brother Gu was faking his death, thinking that the Blood Priest would let him go.

It's likely that Brother Gu became like this while on that Demon Cage Grass to cover for Chi Lang getting the fruit of the Demon Cage Grass.

Then, I helped Brother Gu up and moved him behind the big rock where we were hiding.

First, they gave him medicine from the Xue family's pharmacy, and then they used the Eight-Foot Jade Orb to heal his injuries.

Not long after, Brother Gu slowly woke up. As soon as he woke up, he sat up, looked in the direction of Chi Lang, grabbed his magic sword and was about to rush forward.

"Brother Gu, you're badly injured, you should rest." The disheveled Taoist priest grabbed Brother Gu's arm.

Brother Gu didn't have much strength left. When the slovenly Taoist priest pulled him, he immediately sat down on the ground again and almost fainted again. It took him a while to recover.

Once he had calmed down, he looked at Chilang again and was immediately startled: "My God, how can Chilang be so fierce?!"

"The fruit you picked from the Demon Cage Grass was swallowed whole by Chilang just now, and he's incredibly strong now," I explained.

"I see. It seems the fruit on that Demon Cage Grass is really something. Our trip up there wasn't in vain; we almost lost our lives." Brother Gu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it dangerous up there?" the slovenly Taoist priest asked curiously.

"It was extremely dangerous. There was a group of ferocious beasts up there, like monkeys, with sharp claws and all black, guarding the fruits of the Demon Cage Grass. There were about twenty of them, and they were very fierce. When I went to deal with those monsters, I sent Chilang up to find the fruits. Those things scratched me until I was covered in blood, and I killed most of them," Brother Gu said hurriedly.

“Brother Gu, you guys are really stubborn. If it’s not going to work, then don’t bother. Saving your life is the most important thing.” The slovenly Taoist priest patted Brother Gu on the shoulder.

"We figured we'd come all this way, we couldn't go back empty-handed, or you'd laugh at us. We had to get our hands on it no matter what." With that, Brother Gu reached out and took out about six or seven fruits of the Demon Cage Grass from his person.

I thought this thing was the size of a grape, but when I saw it in Brother Gu's hand, it looked only a little bigger than a blueberry, and it was bright red.

"I went up and took a look. Seeing that the berries hadn't been picked clean, I casually picked a few off." Brother Gu smiled憨厚ly.

“I reckon this stuff is very nourishing. Brother Gu, you eat one and give one to Yuan Kong. Quickly replenish your strength, and maybe your body will recover faster,” the slovenly Taoist said with a smile.

“Brother Luo, we can’t just eat this. We should go back and ask Eighth Master. Eating it like this is probably a waste. It should be more effective after refining it…” Yuan Kong suddenly said.

“Yuan Kong is right. Eating it raw will probably have side effects, just like Chi Lang is now. He might even become ruthless and disown his family,” Brother Gu added.

As I spoke, I looked in Chilang's direction again, only to see that Chilang had changed his appearance once more. Perhaps because he had eaten too many Demon Cage Grass fruits, he was even more ferocious and ruthless. His nine swords flew up and down, constantly slashing at the Blood Priest. I felt that the demonic energy surrounding the Blood Priest had weakened considerably, and the Blood Priest was now gradually falling into a disadvantageous position.
