Chapter 558: Chapter 554: Saving Emperor Tang (III) Chapter 558: Chapter 554: Saving Emperor Tang (III) “I merely lent a hand, it was your own unwavering will and the magical effect of the Suppressing God Technique that truly helped you. Even though this technique originates from the Refining Body Altar, it is an exceedingly wonderful method of surmounting divine control. Little Friend Shen, cultivate it well, it will certainly be of great use to you.” The young girl named Li said to Shen Luo with a smile, her voice, however, was a deep male voice.

“You're not Daoist Li! Who are you?” Shen Luo's expression changed drastically upon hearing this voice. He stared at the girl, guarding against her, and solemnly asked.

The young girl named Li didn't answer his question, but pointed at the gray-white rope binding Emperor Tang.

White light emanated from the gray-white rope, which seemed to come alive, twisting on its own, and released Emperor Tang's soul.

As the restraints on Emperor Tang was released, his body fell from the wooden frame. The girl named Li tried to catch him, but his soul disappeared into thin air just before she could. Shen Luo had snatched him and descended on the other side of the altar.

“You still haven't answered me, who are you? Why have you come here?” Shen Luo looked at the young girl named Li, asking in a deep voice, his hand glowing with a red light.

“Young friend Shen Luo, right? Duke Cheng and Senior Huang have mentioned you to me several times. I am Yuan Tiangang, not an enemy. His Majesty's soul has been captured by someone else. I am powerless against it, thus I could only borrow Princess Shu's body. I used the resonating power of bloodlines between her and His Majesty to transport myself here.” The young girl named Li was not angry, she made a respectful gesture towards him and smiled as she spoke.

“You're National Master Yuan Tiangang? How can you prove it!” Shen Luo looked shocked, but quickly regained his composure and solemnly asked.

“Young friend, you have me in a difficult position. We have not met before, and proving my identity would not be easy. However, the person whom I've possessed is indeed the Princess of the Tang Dynasty. This is her Jade Disc and Golden Book, you can check.” The young girl named Li took out a golden book and handed it to Shen Luo.

Shen Luo looked at the young girl named Li, but did not accept the golden book. Instead, he took a step back and gave her a bow.

“So it is National Master's descent. I previously offended you, please forgive me.”

“Oh? You didn't check the Jade Disc and Golden Book, why did you suddenly believe me?” The girl named Li raised an eyebrow, retracted the book in her hand, and laughed as she asked.

“If you were a villain, you would not have saved me just now. You could have easily ended my life with a single blade. In fact, I somewhat believed what you said before, but as it concerns His Majesty and the fate of the Great Tang, I had to be cautious and thus tested you. I hope National Master will not take offense.” Shen said, handing over Emperor Tang's soul to the young girl named Li.

“Young people not being arrogant or impulsive, handling things calmly, displaying both courage and strategy, no wonder Duke Cheng is very fond of young friend.” The girl named Li took over Emperor Tang's soul, nodded and said.

“National Master is so flattering, I am humbled.” Said Shen Luo, his face modest, showing no sense of complacency.

“Alright, we'll talk later. My nephew Lu has exhausted his vitality by force this time. His potential is about to be depleted. Young Shen, you must lend him a hand quickly. Once Lu falls, we will all perish here, and the country of Great Tang will also face great calamity.” The girl named Li looked at the mid-air and said with a slightly furrowed brow.

Shen Luo looked up and his expression changed subtly.

Looking into mid-air, he saw that the white light emanating from Lu Huaming had dimmed a lot, and the sword glow emitted from his Dragon Slaying Sword had also shortened by almost half. It was far less brilliant than before. What was once a balanced fight had obviously started to tilt in the other's favor.

Shen Luo's heart tightened. Although he knew that he was no match for the Jing River Dragon King, he did not have any intention to retreat. His eyes turned, he made a plan, and was about to step forward.

“Wait a second, young Shen. Right now I'm possessing the princess's body with my divine soul, without the strength to assist you, but there is a Five-Color Doll Talisman on the princess, which I had given her. It can be used to block three fatal attacks. Now, I'm giving this to you, to lend you a helping hand.” The young girl named Li suddenly called out to Shen Luo. She took out a silver talisman and handed it to him.

There were mysterious patterns drawn around the talisman, forming a frame. In the middle of the frame were three extremely lifelike human figures. They emanated a sort of special fluctuation, looking very mysterious.

“Thank you, Master Yuan.” Shen Luo was greatly excited when he heard this, and put on the talisman.

With this talisman, his chance of success greatly increased.

The moment the Five-Color Doll talisman touched his body, it immediately turned into a halo of silver light and melted into him.

Moreover, a stream of pure vitality surged out from the Five-Color Doll Talisman, replenishing a sizable portion of his mana. Although it wasn't entirely full, it had mostly recovered.

A renewed sense of excitement filled Shen Luo, but the immediate danger allowed him no time to examine the Five-Color Doll Talisman. He immediately fled the prohibition, commandeered the sword and soared into the sky, heading straight for the Jing River Dragon King.

He swung both his hands, shooting out from his hand a green and yellow treasure light, as swift as a shooting star and aimed straight at the Jing River Dragon King. It was indeed the Green Short Axe and the Five Mountains Seal.

Upon witnessing this, the Jing River Dragon King's eyes revealed surprise.

The reincarnation restriction below was jointly established by him and those from the Underworld. Even he himself was not confident of resisting it, yet Shen Luo was surprisingly able to escape!

Though he was taken aback, he did not panic. His right hand urged the Green Dragon Saber to continue fighting Lu Huaming, his left hand spread out, showing a brilliant golden light at the fingertips. Suddenly, a golden short cone appeared before him.

The short cone was half a foot long, entirely golden with an extremely sharp tip, and a somewhat curved body, appearing curved, as if it was made from a dragon's horn.

On the cone body, a layer of misty golden light covered it, distributing terrifyingly strong spiritual power fluctuations, far exceeding the commonplace magical instrument.

The Jing River Dragon King made a gesture and pointed. The golden short cone let out a long cry, and its golden light flourished.

Shoo shoo shoo!

There were sharp whistling sounds, numerous golden awl shadows the size of a bowl were shooting out one after another, aiming at Shen Luo like a torrential downpour and moving at an incredibly fast speed.

Shen Luo's pupils shrank, he opened his mouth and spewed out pure mana in a flash, infusing it into the Green Short Axe and the Five Mountains Seal. The treasures shone brightly, colliding with countless golden crescent light blades.

There was a series of crunching sounds, the green short axe kept flashing with thunderlight and soon gave out mournful cries before it was shattered into countless fireflies by the golden short cone shadows.

Meanwhile, the shadow of the Five Mountains around the Five Mountains Seal was also shaking violently and in the blink of an eye, it was breaches by the golden short cone shadow, revealing the body of the seal the size of a water jar.

Many more cone shadows were swarming towards them, striking them and causing several overlapping marks to appear on the body of the Five Mountains Seal. Its spiritual light faded quickly, but it still stubbornly blocked Shen Luo.

Upon seeing this scene, Shen Luo's face grew grave, and he quickly executed a seal and waved his hand. Immediately, the Ink Armor Shield flew out and shielded the Five Mountains Seal.

The light around the shield flourished, and a mysterious turtle illusion appeared around it, which looked extremely stable.

Countless golden short cone shadows crashed down like a downpour, striking the Ink Armor Shield and making dense rumbling sounds.

As expected of a top-grade defensive magical instrument with twelve prohibitions, the Ink Armor Shield only vibrated violently and flashed with spiritual light when countless cone shadows were hitting it, but no damage appeared.

Shen Luo breathed a sigh of relief and immediately waved his left hand.

A golden, a silver, and a gray light shot out from him, circled around the golden short cone shadows, and attacked the Jing River Dragon King from a different direction. They were indeed the Golden Ingot, the Silver Jade, and the Gray Flying Wheel, three top-grade magical instruments.

His right hand was not idle either and removed three Thunderfall Talismans, which he threw out simultaneously.

“Boom” “Boom” “Boom” three thunderous booming sounds rang out, and three thick thunderbolts appeared, slashing across the sky and attacking the Jing River Dragon King.
