Bang! Wang Chong's right foot stomped on a wall as he adjusted his course and rushed forward.
At almost the same time, a giant hand of stone emerged from a wall and smashed into the position Wang Chong had just occupied. Debris exploded into the air as the passage behind Wang Chong half-collapsed.
It's the bamboo hat leader!
Wang Chong's heart trembled as he recalled the bamboo hat man who could transform into a golden giant. When this man transformed, he immediately possessed inconceivable strength, able to turn a martial artist's Stellar Energy into slabs of stone.
Wang Chong suddenly thought of something.
But before he could explore the idea, another massive stone fist hurtled toward him. Wang Chong immediately sent his own steely Stellar Energy to counter it.
Bang!
Two fists, one large and one small, collided in the air. Clickcrack! The thick Stellar Energy around Wang Chong began to crack and splinter, countless pieces of stone dropping to the ground.
Wang Chong was in no mood to fight a prolonged battle. After making this single punch, he dodged away like a snake, allowing that giant fist to collapse a part of the passage again.
”It's useless! You can't escape!” the bamboo hat leader sneered, and his voice clung to Wang Chong like a shadow. It was like he was somehow able to accurately know Wang Chong's position.
A few moments later, several explosions came from up ahead. Wang Chong could clearly see that thirty-some meters away, a massive giant fist had appeared for a moment, bringing down a large section of the stone passage.
The bamboo hat leader had realized that he could essentially cut off Wang Chong's escape routes and trap him.
”Not good!”
Wang Chong grimaced and shot forward like a cannonball. Just before the passage fully collapsed, he managed to squeeze his way through. Right behind him, massive boulders came tumbling down.
”Hmph, so what! I'll just bring down all the passages, and then we'll see how far you can run!”
The bamboo hat leader's cold and sinister voice echoed through the caves. It was obvious that Wang Chong escaping like a mud fish had provoked his fury.
Bzzzz! The earth began to shake and it seemed like the entire cave network around Wang Chong might collapse.
Buzz!
At this time, one of Wang Chong's eyes was open while the other was closed, its pupil turned silver. Wang Chong had entered the world of energy.
”Heh, don't get too ahead of yourself! You really think I can't touch you?!” Wang Chong suddenly said, his voice much calmer.
For a moment, the bamboo hat man had seemed unfathomable and beyond the realm of martial arts. He even seemed able to freely control the earth over an extremely long distance. But after a few exchanges, Wang Chong had come to realize that while formidable, the bamboo hat leader was not as frightening or invincible as he had initially imagined.
”What? You stupid and ignorant thing, I'd like to see what sort of trick you might have!”
The bamboo hat leader's voice came from all around, brimming with scorn and disdain. The abilities of his 'Yellow Scarf Warrior' were at their best here, deep underground where the rock was thickly packed. Dealing with these weak martial artists was as easy as flipping over his hand.
For Wang Chong to say that he could do anything to him was truly laughable.
Rumble! As the bamboo hat leader was about to use the power of the Yellow Scarf Warrior once more, Wang Chong suddenly sent a vast stream of Psychic Energy hurtling through the air. It surged into the rock layer, traveling through the earth, and after traveling nearly one thousand meters from Wang Chong's current location, it came upon a concentrated core of yellow energy.
”Found it!”
A cold light gleamed in Wang Chong's eyes.
The bamboo hat leader's 'Yellow Scarf Warrior' was incredibly powerful and almost impossible to beat in this environment. However, Wang Chong had already realized that before each long-distance attack, the bamboo hat leader would first have to gather energy. This energy that could control the earth and rocks would take the form of an earthen yellow energy core. It was only after this core was formed that one could launch an attack.
Since he knew of this weakness, Wang Chong could not possibly allow his foe to successfully form the energy core.
Boom!
A moment later, Wang Chong's Psychic Energy became tangible, stabbing into that ball of energy like a sharp sword.
Psychic Energy was normally intangible, and no other person would have been capable of such a feat. But Wang Chong's Psychic Energy had already evolved to become an existence similar to Stellar Energy. Rumble! The Psychic Energy pierced through the energy core, causing it to swiftly collapse.
As the energy core exploded, the passage and the surrounding rock immediately stopped shaking.
”How could this be?!”
