Chapter 417

As someone in the crowd was the first to react, they charged toward the massive, milky-white gate. Raising their hands, they unleashed hundreds of magnificent energy bolts, slamming them into the gate. Suddenly, the colossal structure shattered into pieces! With the collapse of the milky-white gate, the Flame Slaves that had been constantly rushing out abruptly came to a halt. The crowd scrambled frantically to push into the passage inside. Although these Flame Slaves posed no significant threat in the short term—a mere wave of the hand could wipe out large swathes of them—they seemed endless, impossible to kill off or eradicate. The ambient energy within the Demonic Flame Dimension was thoroughly tainted by the power of the Lotus Demonic Flame. Even experts at the Dou Sheng level dared not casually absorb or refine this tainted energy. If too much of this demonic flame power accumulated within the body, one might suddenly find their very life force and soul burned into nothingness. Therefore, unless they were backed into a corner, no one would ever attempt to refine this energy. Under such circumstances, facing an endless siege of Flame Slaves would only deplete their reserves of Dou Qi, eventually leading to certain death. Entering the milky-white gate was their only option.
