Zhulong roared and charged towards Li Yao.
"Oh no! The Candle Dragon is coming! Everyone, get out of the way!"
Ten thousand people gasped in surprise.
Biyao and the others immediately flashed to a distance.
Only Li Yao remained standing at a distance, calmly watching the charging Zhulong.
"Father, do you think he can subdue the Candle Dragon?"
Biyao looked at Li Yao in the distance and asked thoughtfully.
"It's hard to say. Although he is very powerful, Zhulong is not an easy opponent either."
Wanren looked at him with a very complicated expression.
He wanted Li Yao to subdue Zhulong, but he also didn't want Li Yao to subdue Zhulong.
If Li Yao subdues Zhulong, he should no longer make things difficult for the Holy Sect.
However, the Candle Dragon is also the guardian spirit of the Holy Church. Without it, the Holy Church loses a great protective weapon.
In short, Wan Renwang's feelings were extremely complicated at this moment.
"Huh? The Candle Dragon is breathing fire!"
Biyao suddenly screamed.
Then, the giant mouth of the Candle Dragon opened, and a ball of crimson flames spewed out.
To Li Yao's surprise, when the ball of flame rushed over, it brought not heat, but cold.
The flames spewed out by the Candle Dragon were actually cold flames!
This cold flame is far more terrifying than ordinary flames.
Once burned by this cold flame, it will cause permanent damage that cannot be reversed by any sophisticated healing methods.
Logically speaking, water overcomes fire.
A water attack can counter a fire attack.
However, the cold flames spewed out by the Candle Dragon are quite unique and cannot be extinguished with water.
Therefore, the only way to deal with this cold flame is to fight fire with fire!
Li Yao reached out and drew the divine spear, which instantly transformed into the Mysterious Fire Mirror.
This Xuanhuo Mirror is not the original Xuanhuo Mirror, but was transformed from a divine spear.
It is far more powerful than the original Xuanhuo Mirror.
As Li Yao activated his magic incantation, the flame totem on the Xuanhuo Mirror suddenly lit up, and a scorching heat emanated from it.
The next moment, a dragon's roar erupted.
Within the Xuanhuo Mirror, a fire dragon suddenly soared into the air, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, its momentum overwhelming, its entire body engulfed in raging flames, distorting the surrounding void with its heat.
Li Yao's magical power is far beyond what Little Fire and Three-Tailed Fox can compare to.
Under Li Yao's control, a fire dragon several dozen feet long roared out and charged towards the ball of cold flames spewed out by the Candle Dragon, instantly wiping the cold flames away completely.
The fire dragon, undeterred, continued its charge towards the candle dragon.
This candle dragon was incredibly reckless, showing no intention of dodging whatsoever, roaring and spewing fire as it charged straight at the fire dragon.
However, all the cold flames it spewed out were burned away by the fire dragon.
Moreover, the fire dragon crashed into it.
Immediately, a sizzling sound of roasting filled the air, and the incredibly hard scales of the Candle Dragon began to curl up from the heat.
A strong, fishy stench filled the air.
Zhulong felt a sharp, burning pain spread throughout his body.
It frantically circled and struggled in the air, the fire dragon gradually dissipating until it disappeared.
However, Zhulong was burned terribly and kept howling in agony.
"What a brilliant move!"
Biyao's mouth dropped open in astonishment, she couldn't close it.
"The Mysterious Fire Mirror is actually in his hands!"
Ten thousand people gasped in surprise.
He was knowledgeable and experienced, and naturally knew that the Xuanhuo Mirror had been missing for three hundred years.
Unexpectedly, it ended up in Li Yao's hands.
He was once again convinced that not offending Li Yao was the wise thing to do.
Severely injured, Zhulong realized he was no match for Li Yao, so he endured the excruciating pain and charged straight down into the icy pool, trying to escape into it.
"Trying to escape? No way!"
Li Yao immediately cast a spell, and a dazzling light struck the icy pool.
Instantly, a huge net of light spread out in all directions above the water, covering the entire surface of the cold pool.
Above the light net, the infinite pattern flickers.
This is the Wuji Seal!
The moment the Wuji Seal was formed, the Candle Dragon rushed onto it, and instantly, it shone with brilliant light, causing a ripple to spread across the Wuji Seal.
The Candle Dragon was repelled by the Limitless Seal and shot back into the sky.
Zhulong felt a wave of dizziness and panic, and suddenly flew towards the Shura Tower in front of the Demonic Sect's Holy Temple.
Chapter 385 The Secret of the Underworld
Li Yao noticed that Zhulong suddenly fled towards the Shura Tower, which he found rather strange.
So he immediately rode on the Overlord Spear and gave chase.
With his speed, he could certainly stop Zhulong directly.
However, he did not do so.
He suspected that the Candle Dragon's escape towards the Asura Tower was likely related to the Abyss above the Asura Tower.
As expected, the Candle Dragon charged toward the enormous phantom above the Asura Tower.
"A dragon! It's a dragon!"
"Could this be the Candle Dragon of our Holy Church?"
"I've finally seen the legendary Zhulong!"
"..."
A group of demonic cult members who were gathered in front of the temple square were extremely excited when they saw Zhulong appear, and they all looked up and shouted.
Although Zhulong is their guardian spirit beast, this is the first time they have seen Zhulong in its true form.
Just as they were shouting, the Candle Dragon roared and rushed into the phantom above the Asura Tower, disappearing instantly.
"ah?"
Where did Zhulong go?
"Could it be that the Abyss is really accessible?"
"..."
A group of members of the Demonic Cult were stunned to discover that Zhulong had suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly, one of the demonic sect disciples pointed at the enormous black phantom and exclaimed, "Oh no! Li Yao has also entered the Netherworld!"
"The Netherworld is a sacred place of our Holy Sect, and we must never let outsiders enter!"
"We must stop him!"
Immediately, more than a dozen disciples of the Demonic Sect used their magical weapons to rush towards the Nether Abyss.
Unfortunately, streaks of black light flashed suddenly, and these demonic sect disciples were all thrown away by a powerful force.
At the same time, Wanrenwang, Baihu, Youji, Biyao, and others also flew over one after another.
"Does this mean we can enter the Underworld now?"
When Wanren saw Zhulong and Li Yao disappear into the Netherworld one after the other, he was both excited and worried.
What's exciting is that he might also be able to enter the Abyss.
The worry is that Li Yao snatched away the opportunity in the Underworld.
The situation was urgent, and without much consideration, he plunged headlong into the abyss.
In an instant, the crowd of ten thousand people vanished.
When Baihu and the others saw their leader enter the Netherworld, they all rushed in as well.
Unfortunately, only the White Tiger rushed into the Abyss. You Ji, Bi Yao, and the others, like the dozen or so demonic disciples before them, were all bounced back by streaks of black light.
It seems that not just anyone can enter this abyss.
Perhaps only those with sufficiently high cultivation levels can enter.
"Aunt You, we can't get in, what should we do?"
Biyao stood in the square, looked up at Mingyuan, and said with a worried expression.
"It seems our cultivation level is insufficient to enter; we can only wait and see!"
Youji sighed and shook her head slightly.

After Li Yao followed Zhulong into the Abyss, he soon found himself in a desolate space.
