A foul, rotting aura permeated this secret chamber, and the Fallen Spirit Master's words confirmed his identity.
He was a Fallen Spirit Master who could advance his strength by absorbing the Souls of others.
It was not hard to guess that the corpses of the villagers outside were all controlled by his Spirit.
However, at the moment, the group was unsure if this Fallen Spirit Master had any accomplices.
Just then, with a "grunt," Yue Guan opened his eyes.
"This... what is going on?"
The "awakened" Yue Guan sensed that the situation was dire and immediately tried to get up, but he felt as though he had no strength at all, and could only lie on the ground, unable to move.
Yue Guan's awakening clearly exceeded the Fallen Spirit Master's expectations.
"Oh? Interesting, you woke up so quickly? It seems you have a certain resistance to this drug."
"But it's a pity, there were two types of drugs in that bowl of chicken soup earlier. Even if you wake up, you will only be limp and powerless."
The Fallen Spirit Master explained the effects of the drugs on the group with a smug look.
It was a pity he didn't know that Yue Guan was perhaps more familiar with the effects of these drugs than he was.
"Who are you? Damn it, is this a trap?! Old Gui, Dong'er, Xiaogang, wake up quickly!"
Yue Guan "struggled" with all his might and tried to wake the three people beside him.
The way he put effort into his performance almost made Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong laugh out loud.
"Stop calling. It's useless no matter how much you scream. Even if they wake up, so what? They will just be like you, struggling helplessly with no strength."
"Don't worry, it won't be long before I extract your Souls to use as nourishment for my growth. Afterwards, your bodies will be controlled by me to continue living in this small village."
"Hahaha, being able to become my nourishment is the honor of you people!"
As he said this, the Fallen Spirit Master couldn't help but reveal a cruel smile.
What he loved most was watching the guys who were about to become his food show expressions of despair before they died.
Because according to his experience, the Souls of Spirit Masters who were killed by him after experiencing despair were the most potent.
"Damn it, do you know who we are?"
"We are people from Spirit Hall. If you dare to touch us, His Holiness the Pope will definitely send people to wipe you out, to wipe out this village!"
Yue Guan looked at the Fallen Spirit Master in front of him with a fierce expression.
"Hahaha, you are actually from Spirit Hall? That's great, I hate Spirit Hall the most."
"Just thinking that you idiots from Spirit Hall are helping me increase my Rank makes me want to laugh, hahahaha..."
"Don't count on anyone coming to save you either. Spirit Hall Supreme Pontiff Qian Xunji? How could that complete idiot catch me?"
"As for this village? Even if you wiped it out, so what? The people outside are all dead. Even if you ground them to dust, I wouldn't feel a thing."
"On the contrary, you, as members of Spirit Hall, dying at the hands of the Fallen Spirit Master you hunt down every day—it feels despairing and painful, doesn't it?"
"Hahahaha..."
The Fallen Spirit Master laughed wildly, his laughter hiding countless twists and madness.
"Who exactly are you?"
Yue Guan asked through gritted teeth.
"Well asked, hahahaha, I am happy to let you die knowing why."
"Thirty-two years ago, a group from Spirit Hall surrounded my Family and left no one alive."
"How righteous, how high-sounding. We were just using the Souls of some lowly people to help us Cultivate. Why did your Spirit Hall have to slaughter my Family?"
"We were clearly noble Spirit Masters. What is wrong with using the lives of those who aren't even Spirit Masters to help us Cultivate?"
"For these past thirty-plus years, I have been hiding and dodging, not daring to expose my abilities too much, all for the day when my Cultivation would be successful so I could take revenge on Spirit Hall."
Speaking of this, the Fallen Spirit Master came to Yue Guan's side and looked down at the angry man.
"Although I am only one person, I will still let Spirit Hall witness my fury!!"
The Fallen Spirit Master's eyes were burning with fire, a look mixed with ambition, desire, hatred, jealousy, and other complex emotions.
"Tsk, only one person? I wasted all that effort acting."
Suddenly, a voice rang out, and the emotions the Fallen Spirit Master had been brewing stopped abruptly.
He turned his head in disbelief, and then saw Yu Xiaogang, who had opened his eyes.
"You..."
Without waiting for the Fallen Spirit Master to speak, Bibi Dong on the side quickly got up and patted the dust off her body.
"If I had known it was just him, I should have started fighting as soon as we came in. You made me lie here for half a day, and my clothes got dirty."
Bibi Dong said with a look of disgust.
"Sigh, it can't be helped. Who told the task to give that kind of hint? Now, whenever I hear 'Fallen Spirit Master', I think about whether the opponent might be a group."
"I even suspected that those guys might have formed some organization or Sect."
Yu Xiaogang sighed. It could only be said that when there were task hints, many things had to be thought about more.
"You..."
Yue Guan and Gui Mei on the side also got up one after another. The two did not say much; Yue Guan came to Bibi Dong's side, while Gui Mei took a step to circle behind the Fallen Spirit Master to prevent any secret escape routes.
Seeing this scene, how could the Fallen Spirit Master not understand that he had been played by these guys opposite him.
"You saw through it from the beginning? Since when?!!"
The Fallen Spirit Master yelled as if his defense had broken.
"From the very beginning, oh."
Yu Xiaogang's mouth curled up, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Roar!"
The figure of the Dragon appeared in the room, and the spirit rings began to emerge—purple, purple, black, black, black, red. The six spirit rings shocked the Fallen Spirit Master's eyes.
Without waiting for him to react, the Dragon released a Light Ball, and the phantom of the Adjudication Angel appeared above everyone's heads.
Endless light shot out from the Sword of Adjudication in the Adjudication Angel's hand, filling the entire secret chamber.
The brand-new light formed by the combination of Ultimate Light and the holy attribute shrouded the Fallen Spirit Master.
"Ah!!"
Severe pain came from his body, and the Fallen Spirit Master let out a miserable scream. He subconsciously summoned his Spirit.
It was a black phantom, surrounded by seven spirit rings: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black.
The Fallen Spirit Master in front of them was actually a Spirit Saint!
With his Spirit, the Fallen Spirit Master had thought he could contend a bit, but soon, he discovered with astonishment that he had no way to resist at all.
The endless Holy Light shone on him, and his Soul Power seemed to fall into a hot boiler like snowflakes, disappearing without even splashing.
His Soul Power, his Spirit, and even his Soul were rapidly weakening under the shroud of this light, until he had no ability to resist.
Finally, the Fallen Spirit Master lay on the ground, looking like he was at the mercy of others.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang had to sigh—it was worthy of being a Spirit Ability from a 100,000-year soul ring, and worthy of being the holy attribute that specifically restrained Fallen Spirit Masters!
