Shi Chan felt the heavy pressure around him and knew that Zhi Shang must have used the full power of this treasure. He immediately sensed something was wrong. Even when Zhi Shang had only used half the power of the golden bowl to imprison him before, he still couldn't escape, let alone now.
After Zhi Shang used the golden bowl to control Shi Chan, he did not linger for a moment. He put his hands together and murmured a Buddhist mantra. Then he pushed his palms forward and released a huge amount of Buddhist energy, which gathered into a golden demon-subduing talisman as tall as a person. It rushed towards the immobilized Shi Chan.
Liuli was shocked to see this. She cried out and shouted, "Shichan, be careful!"
At that moment, Shi Chan was struggling to escape from the golden light's confinement, while the demon-subduing talisman attacked fiercely, about to crash into him.
At this moment, Shi Chan could not wear the Seven-Jeweled Robe that pierced through the golden light emanating from the golden bowl to protect himself. However, with a single thought, the Seven-Jeweled Robe on Liuli's body could fly in front of him to block the demon-subduing talisman. But he was afraid of hurting Liuli and refused to do so.
Liuli was clearly aware of this as well, and was extremely anxious.
The golden light on the Seven Treasures Kasaya blocked all the weapons that attacked Liuli, and she completely ignored the weapons that retreated after missing their target. Just as the demon-subduing talisman was rushing towards Shichan, she leaped up and flew towards Shichan without hesitation.
Originally, Liuli was farther away from Shichan than the demon-subduing talisman, so it was impossible for her to fly to Shichan before the talisman. But perhaps because she was too worried about Shichan, the hidden potential within Liuli was activated, which caused her to leave a trail of afterimages behind her, flying to Shichan's side at an extremely fast speed, as if she were teleporting.
Then she spread her arms wide and stood in front of Shi Chan, using her own body to block the demon-subduing talisman in his place.
This demon-subduing talisman was several times more powerful than the previous swastika seal. The swastika seal, when it struck Shi Chan, who was protected by his seven-jeweled robe, shattered his shoulder blade. Therefore, this demon-subduing talisman struck Liuli solidly; Shi Chan could imagine its power.
Even with the Seven Treasures Kasaya protecting her, Liuli's bones still emitted a terrifying cracking sound. She spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered backward, and fell into Shichan's arms.
"Liuli!!"
All of this, though described slowly, happened in the blink of an eye. Shi Chan only saw a flash of golden light before Liu Li let out a muffled groan and collapsed onto him. He struggled to change his position, holding her in his arms, and cried out in pain, "Liu Li, why, why did you..."
Liuli collapsed into Shichan's arms, trapped within the golden light of the golden bowl. This light aggravated her injuries and intensified her pain.
At this moment, all of Liuli's bones were shattered and her internal organs were damaged. She felt unbearable pain all over her body, and the suffocating feeling in her chest made her almost suffocate. A sweet and fishy taste kept rising in her throat, and a huge amount of blood gushed out of her mouth. The blood reflected on her pale face and looked shocking.
"Liuli..." Tears fell onto Liuli's small face. Shichan felt an unbearable heartache. He only wanted to heal her wounds as soon as possible and alleviate her pain. However, trapped by the golden light, even moving was extremely difficult for him.
After trying for a while, Shi Chan looked up at Zhi Shang, his voice choked with sobs as he pleaded, "Uncle-Master, please let me go, Uncle-Master, please let me go... I need to heal her wounds, let me heal her wounds..."
"Shi...Shi Chan..." Liu Li endured the excruciating pain, calling out softly with a smile, her voice as gentle and sweet as the Liu Li of the past. She wanted to wipe away his tears, but she couldn't move, so she could only force herself to speak, whispering, "Don't cry, Shi Chan, don't beg him, I'm alright...you don't need to worry..."
"Uncle-Master Zhishang!" Shichan, still gazing in Zhishang's direction, pleaded through tears, "Shichan begs you, Uncle-Master, please let me go and let me save her. I'm willing to pay any price, willing to endure any punishment, just to save her... Uncle-Master, please let me go..."
Zhi Shang stared coldly at Shi Chan, neither answering nor making any move.
"Uncle-Master!" Shi Chan's voice was choked and hoarse, sounding almost desperate.
