Yuan Xiao and their team had their advantages, entering the flaming palace to battle faster than other practitioners in the same batch.
At first, they couldn't see the shape of the palace, only the blazing flames.
Upon seeing some fireballs, they ventured deeper and encountered puppets. They were unable to discern the inner stages, entering a place where things were unclear.
Yuan Xiao could see that the stronger the energy of the puppets they fought, the more formidable their power. They didn't have much difficulty resisting, thanks to the Buddhist Seal's blessing.
Perhaps after entering, their strength slightly increased.
Or maybe, their bodies involuntarily grew stronger in the phantom after entering.
The fire energy Yuan Xiao absorbed bolstered his body's Buddha Light Energy. Initially, his phantom's body grew stronger, and gradually his qi intensified.
Soon, his subordinates also completed their upgrades, no longer needing his protection.
