I use the fox fairy to suppress all ghosts

Since the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary has enclosed this place with a magic array, there must be something they want to protect.

At that moment, I was very curious about what exactly was here.

The slovenly Taoist priest had a nose more sensitive than a dog's; he must have sensed some treasure here as well.

After entering the cave, the three of us became even more vigilant, because a faint smell of blood wafted towards us from the depths of the cave.

Some white bones could still be seen on the ground, all broken into fragments, it was hard to tell whether they were human bones or animal bones.

On both sides of the cave, there were many braziers, making the cave flicker with light.

The three of us walked forward in the cave for a while when we suddenly heard footsteps ahead. This alerted us, and we immediately stopped and waited for a moment.

Before long, several people from the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary emerged from the other side of the cave, leading a dozen or so ragged people.

These people were all bound with ropes, lined up in a row, and walked deeper into the cave.

Those bound by ropes had blank stares and lifeless eyes, like walking corpses.

Among these people, there were also a few practitioners.

After those people had gone far away, we took a few steps forward and discovered that the cave actually had a fork in the road.

Immediately, I suggested we head towards the entrance where those Crimson Shadow Temple people came from, and maybe we'd make some new discoveries.

This cave is home to many members of the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary, and there must be quite a few experts among them.

The slovenly Taoist priest and his companions arrived, but the cave remained peaceful. This indicated that they had not yet been discovered and were undoubtedly hiding in some secluded corner.

I know that slovenly Taoist priest very well; he won't act until he sees the benefit.

The reason they haven't taken action is that they haven't yet found where the treasures of the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary are hidden.

Otherwise, he would have caused a huge uproar long ago.

After walking a distance toward the fork in the road, I found that there were many separate spaces on both sides of the fork, each surrounded by iron fences, and quite a few people were trapped there.

The people from the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary have captured so many people and are keeping them here; I don't know why.

After searching around without finding anything significant, we left and headed in the direction the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary group had gone.

After walking for a short while, some light suddenly appeared ahead, but it was very faint, and the cool moonlight shone on the ground.

Upon closer inspection, a huge stone chamber appeared before them.

At this moment, an even stronger stench of blood wafted towards us, along with a very strange fragrance.

After a brief pause, I called to everyone to continue walking inside.

Upon entering the enormous stone chamber, the first thing that catches the eye is a very lush red plant.

The plant was large and exhaled air; it was entirely red, but its leaves were green.

Above the stone chamber, there is an irregular hole through which moonlight streams in.

Inside the stone chamber, there was not only this enormous plant, but also many people from the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary.

We soon spotted the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary members who had been escorting people there earlier.

Those who were being escorted were taken to the base of the giant plant, and one by one, their ropes were untied, and they were pushed towards the base of the plant.

I examined the huge plant closely; it looked like a pitcher plant, but I had never seen such a large pitcher plant before.

Even more terrifying, the pitcher plant was emitting a faint demonic aura.

What on earth are these people from the Crimson Blood Sanctuary up to?

The stone chamber was very large, with many stones scattered haphazardly around it.

We quickly entered the stone chamber, hid behind a rock, and observed the people's every move.

Actually, we are invisible now, so we don't need to hide and no one can see us, but we still feel safer hiding behind the rocks.

As soon as he squatted down, Kasang whispered, "Brother Wu, Brother Gu and the others are here too, not far from us."

"Since they're hiding, we'll hide too. If they make a move, we'll make a move too," I whispered in response.

As I was speaking, I saw those who had been pushed under the giant pitcher plant immediately entangled by several vines and pulled upwards towards the pitcher plant.

The pitcher plant is carnivorous, covered with countless insect-eating pitchers of all sizes. After being dragged up, the people were immediately put into the pitchers, and soon screams of agony came from inside.

The dozen or so people who were brought over were all fed to this giant pitcher plant.

Kasang looked at it for a while and then said to us, "Brother Wu, Senior Zhang, this thing should be a Demon Cage Grass. It has been specially refined and cultivated. It can eat people and grows bigger and bigger by consuming the nutrients of living people. I reckon that the fruit of this Demon Cage Grass must be a good thing, just like the effect of the Rafflesia."

Upon hearing Kassan say this, I looked at the Demon Cage Grass, but I couldn't find its fruit anywhere.

"I didn't see any fruit? Why do these evil forces in Southeast Asia all like to make this stuff?" I said in a low voice.

“Humans are the essence of heaven and earth. The Demon Cage Grass devours living people and absorbs nutrients to grow fruits with powerful energy. This Demon Cage Grass is so big; I don’t know how many lives it took to grow it. We’ll get rid of this Demon Cage Grass in a bit,” Zhang Qing’an added.

“Angkor, the fruit is at the very top of the magic cage grass, hidden behind the leaves. You have to climb up to see it,” Kassan whispered to me.

At this moment, I discovered another problem: near the Demon Cage Grass, there were three experts from the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary, directing the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary members to push living people toward the Demon Cage Grass one by one.

Some of those who were pulled over saw their companions being eaten by the Demon Cage Grass and screamed in terror, struggling to escape. At this moment, the members of the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary stabbed each of them, rendering them powerless to resist, before pushing them under the Demon Cage Grass.

Those three experts from the Crimson Shadow Sanctuary must be elders. We've fought them before, and their strength was just so-so; dealing with them was a piece of cake.

Just as we were watching the situation ahead, several screams came from not far away. Soon, two figures appeared. I looked closely and saw that it was Brother Gu and Chi Lang. They suddenly appeared under the Demon Cage Grass, quickly killed those ordinary disciples of the Crimson Shadow Holy Hall, and then climbed up the Demon Cage Grass.
