That was a Golden Snake.
It looked down upon the Heavenly Palace with its vertical pupils as if it were a blood-colored sun, majestic and intimidating.
Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes: "You can't come down?"
He noticed that the barrier opened by the Asura Clan wasn't large enough to let even one eye of the Golden Snake through.
"Barely enough."
The voice of the Candle Dragon thundered, echoing like thunder, causing people's eardrums to ache with pain.
As they spoke, the battlefield surrounding Sun Wukong welled up with the blood energy of countless sacrifices, opening a portal outside the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven.
The Golden Snake opened its giant maw, and a red Blood Pearl flew out from its mouth, bursting with demonic light, and shattered the portal with a blast.
That was the inner core of the Candle Dragon, the evolution of its entire power, unlike any previous incarnation.
