At that moment, Xu Fei, pretending to be unconscious, had already rolled away to a safe distance the instant he triggered the seeds.
Boom!
A deafening roar echoed through the silent underground temple as the trap Xu Fei had meticulously laid was finally detonated!
The dust from the explosion shot skyward, even cracking the sturdy main structure of the underground temple, leaving numerous fissures.
Several walls had collapsed entirely, turning the scene into utter chaos.
Xu Fei waited until the dust settled before cautiously approaching the site.
He saw Kawashima Isao lying on the ground, his eyes vacant, staring ahead, uncertain if he was injured.
“Why… why? Despite all my efforts, why am I still no match for you?”
Kawashima Isao let out a anguished wail, his voice and expression as if questioning the heavens beyond the temple’s ceiling.
Or perhaps, addressing the statue behind him.
“Lord Evil King, tell me, what should I do? Speak to me!”
Kawashima Isao’s demeanor had become almost unhinged.
He scrambled to his feet, but instead of attacking Xu Fei, who was within arm’s reach, he rushed towards the back.
Xu Fei, standing there, looked behind and noticed a mysterious statue at the very center of the temple’s deepest recesses.
The figure had its hands clasped, its expression and features carved with striking lifelikeness.
Kawashima Isao ran to the statue’s base, sobbing uncontrollably. Xu Fei, seizing the moment, observed that this so-called Lord Evil King bore no discernible difference from a Huaxia native!
“What’s going on? Could their nation’s Lord Evil King actually be from Huaxia?”
Xu Fei felt utterly perplexed, while Kawashima Isao’s behavior grew increasingly frenzied and uncontrollable.
“For generations, my Kawashima family has revered you as the exalted Lord Evil King, offering lavish tributes every year. Yet now, at this critical moment, you remain silent?”
“If that’s the case, what’s the point of continuing to worship you as the Lord Evil King!”
Kawashima Isao roared, summoning the Yin Force within him to envelop his body.
Then, he aimed a ferocious punch at the statue’s head.
“Damn it!”
Xu Fei, having activated his X-ray vision to observe more closely, could clearly see that the statue was hollow, filled entirely with something his vision couldn’t penetrate.
Thus far, the only thing Xu Fei couldn’t see through was the Yin Force within Kawashima Isao.
“In other words, the statue is brimming with Yin Force? If Kawashima Isao absorbs it all, the consequences would be catastrophic!”
Xu Fei immediately leapt forward to intervene, but it was already too late.
Kawashima Isao had smashed the statue’s head with a single punch, and the vast quantity of Yin Force contained within surged out, transforming into a black lake!
“Hahaha! I see now, this is the true legacy of the temple!”
“Xu Fei, let’s see where you can escape to now!”
Kawashima Isao, fully immersed in the black lake, laughed maniacally.
