Chapter 549: Chapter 545: The Dragon Slaying Sword Reappears Chapter 549: Chapter 545: The Dragon Slaying Sword Reappears As Shen Luo's thoughts turned, he carefully scrutinized the ash-colored figure and became more and more shocked with every glimpse.

No breath leaked from the figure, it seemed like it was truly just a shadow, yet it irresistibly made his heart palpitate.

Shen Luo had only experienced this kind of situation in monks who were at the Nascent Soul Stage or above.

“I misjudged. To think there is such a formidable figure!” Shen Luo clenched his fists tightly. His originally somewhat steady heart rose again.

“The Body Refining Platform has helped me a lot, I have not forgotten that. Once I become the Emperor Tang, I will definitely make the Body Refining Platform my national teaching platform and strongly support it, providing tribute for generations,” the Jing River Dragon King addressed the five monks on the Body Refining Platform.

“Many thanks to His Majesty Dragon King.” The Black Robed Monk leading the group rejoiced, cupping his hands and thanking the Dragon King.

Jing River Dragon retreated his gaze, looking towards the Emperor Tang on the altar, a flash of ferocity in his eyes, his hands forming seals.

The six-pointed shadow wheel in the void immediately emitted a strong white light, its rotation speed increased by ten times.

The shadow figure in grey raised his hand and swung, a white light shot out from his hand. It was a grey-white talisman, engraved with a six-pointed wheel pattern, which melted into the six-pointed phantom wheel above the altar.

The six-pointed shadow wheel quickly became solid, transforming into a semi-illusory existence.

A very peculiar wave of mana spread out from the hexagonal wheel, radiating far and wide. The wave also affected Shen Luo and others on the Ming Shi Bridge far in the distance.

Everyone shivered, their faces appearing dazed.

The same was true for Shen Luo, many blurry scenes flashed before his eyes as if he had glimpsed his past and present lives, leaving his spirit in a daze.

“The Suppressing God Technique!”

At the critical moment, he performed the Suppressing God Technique, a towering huge peak emerged in his mind. The fluctuating soul power instantly stabilized, the illusions before his eyes quickly disappeared.

But at that moment, his body suddenly swayed, for the Ming Shi Bridge began to vibrate suddenly, as if resonance occurred with this peculiar mana.

Ancient black patterns emerged from the surface of the bridge, emanating trails of black light.

The restrictions on the bridge had completely concealed the breaths of Shen Luo and the others, but now as the restrictions vibrated, their breaths were suddenly revealed.

“Who is there!” The Jing River Dragon King suddenly turned his head and looked over, splitting his right hand into five fingers, reaching out to grab the void.

The void above the heads of Shen Luo and the others wavered, and a huge black dragon claw the size of an acre emerged, reaching down to grab all of them.

A massive sucking force emerged from the dragon claw, pulling all of them up, so they had no control over their bodies and were flying upwards.

“It's you! Boy, I remembered your pure nature and initially intended to spare your life. Unfortunately, you have repeatedly ruined my big plans. Today, you are snooping on my secrets, so there is no sparing you. Die!” The Jing River Dragon King glanced at Shen Luo, a killing intent flashed in his eyes, a blast of black light from his raised right hand, and he squeezed forcefully.

A powerful and sharp pressure permeated through the giant dragon claw, enveloping Shen Luo and others, squeezing sharply, as though intending to crush them all into powder.

Shen Luo's face drastically changed, he gestured with his hands, and strange lights flickered all around him.

The Pure Yang Sword Embryo, Five Peaks Seal, Ink Armor Shield, Qiankun Bag, and the Green Short Axe magical instruments gradually materialized.

All the mana in his body was drained, pouring into these magical instruments. Numerous powerful waves of mana erupted, ready to fight to death.

But Dan Yangzi, Red Hands Master, Ge Tianqing, and Xie Yuxin were all in a daze, entirely unaware of the danger approaching.

Just at this moment, an incredibly bright white light suddenly erupted from their side. It was Lu Huaming sitting cross-legged in mid-air, looking dignified. A dazzling, sun-like white light burst from his body, too intense to gaze directly at.

This white light brightened, then quickly contracted, transforming in the blink of an eye into a luminous sphere several feet tall, encapsulating all of them within.

“Clang,” “Clang,” “Clang,” several loud noises echoed. The white light shield trembled violently; five deep depressions appeared on its surface, but it showed no signs of shattering.

Upon seeing this, Shen Luo let out the breath he had been holding, looking over at Lu Huaming.

Lu Huaming had already stood up by this point, his expression grave. Gone was his usual cheerful demeanor.

An illusory figure faintly appeared overlapping his body, and the sky-piercing white light was emanating from the figure's body.

The aura emanating from Lu Huaming had also multiplied several times, reaching the realm of the Nascent Soul Stage.

His hands formed a gesture, waving to the left and right.

Sounds of bubbling resonated on the white light shield. Many star patterns appeared.

Lu Huaming's hands formed a seal and pushed outwards fiercely.

“Boom,” a scorching white light bloomed on the white light shield. It was blinding, and then the entire shield suddenly shattered, transforming into a large white light wave, surging in all directions.

The surrounding sharp claw energy that enveloped them was swept away as if it was rotten wood, and the enormous black dragon claw above was blown away.

Shen Luo and the others regained their freedom and floated to the ground.

Xie Yuxin, Dan Yangzi and the others also regained their senses at this moment, looking surprised at Lu Huaming, the black dragon claw overhead, and their surroundings, clueless as to what had happened.

“We've been discovered. Lu Daoist acted and saved us…” Shen Luo had already left the Ming Shi Bridge by this point; his Divine Sense power could leave his body, so he used it to explain what had happened in a simple way.

Upon hearing this, the four of them finally understood.

“As previously agreed, I will deal with the Jing River Dragon King. You go and rescue His Majesty!” Lu Huaming said to Shen Luo and the others. His voice remained the same but his tone had completely changed; he sounded like a stern general giving commands.

As his words fell, his right hand reached out to the void, and a sharp whistling noise sounded. A golden light appeared in his palm, transforming into a golden sword.

This sword had a unique design; its blade slightly curved, looking like both a sword and a knife, and a ball of golden flame burned at the sword handle.

“Is this…” Shen Luo raised his eyebrows.

He had seen this uniquely designed sword before. During his last duel with the Jing River Dragon King, a massive sword shadow similar to this sword had emerged from the golden sword array inside the river. It had broken through the Jing River Dragon King's move with a single strike. That day, the Jing River Dragon King had called out in surprise, naming that sword shadow the Dragon Slaying Sword.

“Could this be the Dragon Slaying Sword!” Shen Luo wondered silently.

After Lu Huaming displayed this sword, he swung it towards the black dragon claw in the sky.

A golden light flickered, a huge sword Qi that was about dozens of feet wide and seventy to eighty feet long shot out from the golden sword, breaking through the void, directly soaring into the sky. In a blink, it appeared in front of the black dragon claw, smashing into it fiercely.

“Hiss,” what looked like the formidable black dragon claw was cut into two, as fragile as tofu, and dissipated into countless strands of black Qi.

The pressure on Shen Luo and the others' heads completely disappeared. They all breathed a sigh of relief, staring at the golden sword in awe.

“Dragon Slaying Sword! I didn't expect to see this sword again today. Good, good, good, watch me avenge the deep hatred of a hundred years ago!” The Jing River Dragon King stared at the sword in Lu Huaming's hand, his eyes filled with immense hatred as he said coldly.

“Evil dragon, Emperor Tang spared you at the time due to his kindness, pleading for you in the Underworld, which is why your divine soul didn't perish. It's unexpected that you not only failed to be grateful, but also tried to retaliate. Today, I will not spare you!” Lu Huaming spoke out, his voice echoing through the void, causing the entire space to tremble.

“Young one, you use secret techniques to borrow power from your past life to forcibly fight me. The victor isn't decided yet, but I fear your body won't be able to withstand this drain and will collapse first!” The Jing River Dragon King took a look at Lu Huaming from top to bottom and mocked.

“Evil creature, you can't comprehend the heartfelt loyalty of the Great Tang Dynasty Government, much less the secret techniques of the Great Tang Dynasty Government. Evil dragon, meet your death!” Lu Huaming's face remained unmoved, his Dragon Slaying Sword was overflowing with golden light as he cleaved towards the Jing River Dragon King.

A massive golden Sword Qi broke through the sky and slashed at the Jing River Dragon King.
