Lin Xun opened up the inventory screen, selected 'Evil Fruit', and then picked up the special piece of equipment, 'Vermilion Festival Pole'.
According to the method in the shrine keeper's memory, as long as he uses the Festival Pole in the main shrine, he can summon the 'Offspring of the True God', and find helpers to defeat the general together.
[You're holding a black and tiny fruit in your hand, your other hand slipped into the ornamental red Festival Pole.]
Seeing the text displaying 'Black Fruit', Lin Xun trembled, quickly halting his actions.
A terrifying thought crossed his mind. Wouldn't the Evil God discover him if he summons the 'Offspring of the True God' while holding an 'Evil Fruit'?
Moreover, with the statue in the main shrine wrapped in an evil spirit and shrouded in dark aura, what would the difference be between using the Festival Pole here and self-surrender?
That's literally like yelling "Dinner is served!" in front of the 'Extreme Delusional Evil Fruit'...
