With his killing blow blocked, Tang San was truly shocked and furious.
He was shocked that this suddenly appearing shadow could effortlessly block an attack from the Seagod Trident with its own body.
And he was furious that he had failed to kill Yue Guan.
This nearly drove Tang San mad with rage.
After all, Tang San had expended a great deal of effort to finally crush Yue Guan.
He had even spent time imagining the wonderful future that awaited him after slaying Yue Guan, fantasizing about the countless accolades he was about to receive.
Yet, he never expected that just as he was about to strike and reap the rewards, a problem would arise.
His strike had missed, blocked with ease by someone else.
And because of this, he might no longer be able to kill Yue Guan.
For Tang San, this was simply unacceptable.
After all, he had spent so long fantasizing about it, only for the result to be that he hadn't even killed Yue Guan; all that time spent thinking had been for nothing.
Tang San felt even worse than if he had eaten a pile of dung.
Looking back at his previous actions, he felt even stupider than a pig.
"You dare to meddle in my affairs?"
"Die!"
Driven by rage, Tang San struck out in a fit of desperation.
He unleashed another attack toward Yue Guan and Xiao Wu, a strike so powerful it felt world-shattering, thrusting the Seagod Trident toward them with terrifying force.
At this moment, Xiao Wu's Invincible Golden Body had already expired.
Without the Invincible Golden Body, Xiao Wu's other abilities were completely incapable of resisting Tang San's onslaught.
Yue Guan was in an even worse state, having no room left to fight back, leaving both Xiao Wu and Yue Guan in immediate peril.
"Go!"
Fortunately, the two Holy Spirit Cult elders, who had been waiting in the shadows for an opportunity, struck just in time.
Evil Soul Masters were most adept at attacking the mind.
They understood the weaknesses of the human heart better than anyone.
Take Tang San, for instance; he had been quite calm and rational just a moment ago.
At that time, he had been flawless, with no openings to exploit.
Even if the two elders had launched a surprise attack then, they might not have gained any advantage.
But now, it was different.
Provoked by Xiao Wu, Tang San had become consumed by rage.
Human beings are at their most irrational when angry, and this was the moment when Tang San was most vulnerable.
Thus, the two Holy Spirit Cult elders no longer held back.
The two attacked simultaneously from left and right. Behind the Second Elder on the left, a massive ghostly shadow emerged; the moment his spirit rings flickered, he pinned Tang San in place, then summoned countless ghosts that clawed and shrieked as they swarmed toward him.
The First Elder on the right held his staff, and as he struck it against the ground, the very space where Tang San stood—and even Tang San himself—began to distort.
His consciousness blurred as he fell into an illusion. In the vision, he was tied to a great tree, and countless vengeful spirits and ghosts were gnawing at his flesh, causing him to scream in agony.
If the power of the Seagod Trident were not taken into account, Tang San's strength would be vastly inferior to these two Holy Spirit Cult elders.
After all, Evil Soul Masters were inherently stronger than ordinary spirit masters, and the spirit power of the two Holy Spirit Cult elders was higher than Tang San's.
Therefore, if the Seagod Trident were excluded, the two Holy Spirit Cult elders could have even killed Tang San instantly.
But Tang San did, after all, possess the Seagod Trident.
So, although Tang San had nearly perished after being caught off guard by the surprise attack from the two Holy Spirit Cult elders, the Seagod Trident acted in time to save his life.
In that instant, the Seagod Trident emitted a dazzling Light of the Sea God.
Bathed in this Light of the Sea God, Tang San immediately broke free from the illusion.
He was drenched in cold sweat, terrified by the horrific illusion he had just experienced.
But no sooner had he regained his senses than he realized the sky was filled with ghosts, swarming toward him like a tidal wave.
"Damn it."
"What kind of crooked, evil sorcery is this!"
Tang San was shocked.
He dared not be the least bit careless, erupting with his full power and unleashing the might of the Seagod Trident to wipe out the mass of ghosts entirely.
By the time he finished, Tang San's face had turned pale.
As he continued to stare at the two elders before him, his eyes were filled with deep apprehension.
He knew very well that if the Seagod Trident hadn't helped him just now, he might have already become a cold corpse.
"Who are you people?"
"Why did you try to stop me?"
"What is your objective?"
Tang San fired a lethal triple-question at the two Holy Spirit Cult elders.
There were simply too many doubts in his heart.
After all, the techniques used by these two Holy Spirit Cult elders were clearly those of Evil Soul Masters.
Yet, it was impossible for Bibi Dong to cooperate with Evil Soul Masters.
So, where did these two Evil Soul Masters come from, and what was their goal? Would they hinder his future operations?
Tang San was desperate to know the answer.
Furthermore, the most important point was that after the brief clash just now, Tang San clearly understood how formidable these two Evil Soul Masters were.
Therefore, he was naturally extremely solemn as he continued to face them.
"So we couldn't kill him?"
"What a pity."
"It was such a perfect opportunity, yet we still couldn't kill him."
"The Seagod Trident is truly powerful."
However, on the other side, the two Holy Spirit Cult elders did not respond to Tang San's interrogation.
After their sure-kill combo failed, the two Holy Spirit Cult elders felt it was a great shame and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"As expected, this brat still needs to be dealt with by the Cult Master himself."
"A mere Seagod; once the Cult Master makes a move, he will definitely be swatted to death with ease."
"We are still too weak."
The two Holy Spirit Cult elders muttered to themselves.
Only then did they remember to respond to Tang San's earlier questions.
"Oh? Curious about our identities?"
"Very well, we can tell you."
"We are the Holy Spirit Cult, an organization of Evil Soul Masters."
"You are very unlucky."
"Because you have offended our Cult Master, and as things stand, our Cult Master wants you dead."
The two Holy Spirit Cult elders sneered.
"You are finished."
"Even though you have obtained the Seagod Inheritance, in the eyes of our Cult Master, that kind of deity is nothing."
"Prepare yourself mentally and wait obediently for death."
"Once our Cult Master finishes his seclusion, you will all be finished."
"When that time comes, you will know what true despair is."
The two Holy Spirit Cult elders mocked Tang San coldly for a while.
Afterward, they had no intention of staying where they were any longer.
The Second Elder on the left sneered and directly summoned a massive ghost.
The ghost swallowed them whole, and they quickly vanished from the spot, leaving behind only Tang San and the others, who stood there with faces full of wariness.
Begging for votes, love you all.
