-Shen Wei-

"You have to be kidding me, right? How the hell are we supposed to fight that thing? It's half made of smoke, our guns are useless against that thing!" Da Qing said with worry, as he watched the huge monster. Every time the thing open it mouth with a piercing screech, some lava rocks will come out, like hot projectiles that were falling close to the black portal they were in.

"I will take care of that." Shen Wei said, but the dragon stopped him before he could step out of the repealing circle that was the only thing protecting them from stronger demons.

"No, you most restore the seal as soon as possible and all your energy most be concentrate in finishing the job and nothing else, otherwise we all die here. I will take care of the volcanic demon and the rest of you, just kill the weaker ones that comes this way and protect Shen Wei at all times." Lóng Hún advised.

"Can you take that thing on? You said it was one of the strongest." Shen Wei asked and the dragons smiled mischievously.

"It had been a while since I used my full potential. My powers are restricted in the human realm, but this is hell, so just focus on restoring the seal. I'm sure your beloved Kunlun will fully awake soon and pull us out of this wicked place." The dragon added.

"Oh gods... Yunlan! Yunlan!!" It was then that Shen Wei notice his absence. There was a hint of desperation as he looked around, but didn't find him.

"Don't worry, he is fine... actually he is way better than all of us right now." Lóng Hún reassured him, putting a hand over his shoulder.

"They are coming... more demons." Guo signaled at the distance, in were beast demons were running toward the portal, lots of them. The team surrounded Shen Wei and Guo and were ready to fire up, as soon as they were in range.

"Let the kid help you, Shen Wei... he is full of virtue, which can give you the extra energy you will need to complete the seal." Lóng Hún said and was about to go down the few stairs, when Shen Wei stopped him.

"Wait, how do I restore the seal?" He asked, not really sure of even how they end up been portal straight to the gate of hell.

"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with the restoration. That was something only you and Kunlun knew how to do. Read the runes again and see if you can remember what you did last time. Good luck, I need to go now..." The dragon said as he ran down the stairs and outside the protection of the portal.

They all stared as he changed form, back to that of his true self, but to their surprise, he took another dragon form. His body was huge and it was more serpentine like, his scales of two tones, light and dark blue. He open his mouth just before flying away toward the volcanic demon, freezing several smaller demons in an instant, then a lighting hit them and they shattered in hundreds of ice pieces.

"Oh wow, he can use ice too..." Zhu whisper in awe.

"Yeah, but still, more are coming." Lin said, as another wave of demons were heading their way.

"Okay, Wang and Sang, make a barrier with as many layers as you can around us. Zhu shoot as much as you can but also, ready your blade in case some demons escape our shooting ring. Old Chu, you do the same, but with your treads, the rest of us just shoot everything that comes close enough!" Da Qing instructed. As Zhao Yunlan's second in command, it was his duty to keep the others safe, until their Chief showed up again.

And so, the other begin to fire up rounds after rounds and both Shen Wei and Guo concentrate on the runes engraved on the black portal. Those from that side were shining red and Shen Wei try to ignore both, the team fighting as well as Long Hun's diversion. Luckily, he could read the runes on that side too and as he did, he understood what was needed to remake the seal.
