The final and most dazzling blue burst of light he gained by burning his life was not used for defense, but was entirely concentrated in this last strike.

He wanted people to see him, to see himself, and to see everything that was happening!

Luo Fei unleashed a burst of energy, recklessly blasting it towards Feng Lie's face!

Feng Lie raised his hand and activated his supernatural power.

"BOOM—!!!"

Two violent energies collided violently at the top of the tower, shattering Feng Lie's barrier.

Feng Lie was also shaken by this desperate counterattack, causing his blood to surge and him to stagger backward!

Luo Fei, on the other hand, was like a cannonball blasted out of a giant cannon. Under the enormous recoil, his body completely lost control, tearing through the heavy rain curtains and falling rapidly towards the center of the square with a bloody trail in his eyes!

The eaves of Zhenguo Pagoda rapidly receded and spun in view.

"Ah—!" The crowd below scattered in panic.

Just then, a fat monk dressed in a blue robe caught Luo Fei.

Feng Lie looked down and knew that Luo Fei's internal organs were shattered and he was doomed. Even if he wasn't completely killed by the fall, he couldn't possibly survive.

Luo Fei struggled to open his eyes and looked at the fat monk in front of him.

He used his last bit of strength to hand the recorder he had hidden in his hand to the fat monk.

Luo Fei tried to speak, but he could no longer utter a word. His eyes, filled with a final, unwavering determination, gazed at the fat monk.

"The evidence...must...be leaked."

This was Luo Fei's last thought before his consciousness sank into boundless darkness.

The rain is still falling.

Cold raindrops pattered against Luo Fei's face, which was rapidly losing its temperature.

"Buzz—"

Countless golden rays of Buddhist light surged from Luo Fei's body into the body of the monk Jingshi.

The world spins, and the senses return.

The moment after that, the spirit of the monk Jingshi returned to reality and entered his body.

Outside the Changshu Temple in Tiancheng, the monk Jingshi slowly opened his eyes, his hands clasped together, his gaze filled with boundless compassion:

"Amitabha."
