The two of them looked at the bottomless abyss below them at the same moment.

"I can feel water vapor in the abyss, there must be water underneath!" Gandalf said affirmatively.

Dui naturally knew that there was water below.

But how to lead the fire demon into the abyss?

----

On Smaug's side, the Balrog is, after all, a far more powerful being than the dragon.

The Firelord used his fire scepter to release scorching flames, melting the dragon armor on Smaug's body and burning his scales red, as if they were about to be roasted.

Surrounded by flames, Smaug couldn't help but let out a painful dragon roar.

Although he has a certain resistance to fire, he cannot withstand the continuous burning of the dark flames by the fire demon.

"Evil spirit, your opponent is me!"

Gandalf stood in the center of Durin's Bridge, the flaming sword in his hand releasing a dazzling light, attracting the Balrog's attention.

The Balrog raised his flaming whip, flames burst from his nostrils, and his yellow eyes showed a mocking look, as if saying that Gandalf was overestimating his own abilities.

It walked onto the bridge and waved the whip made of fire in its hand. The tip of the whip was like a nimble fire snake, making a whistling sound as it lashed out like Gandalf.

Wherever the whip passed, the air was ignited, leaving behind twisted traces.

Gandalf quickly dodged sideways, swinging his flaming sword in an attempt to block the Balrog's attack.

The flaming sword and the flaming whip collided with each other, making a loud noise and splashing countless sparks. The huge impact force spread in all directions, causing cracks to appear on the surrounding stone bridges.

Gandalf staggered back under the immense force, and the flame of the flaming sword in his hand grew dim.

The Balrog's mockery intensified as he continued to advance, closing in on Gandalf.

"Avada Kedavra!" caused by Dui's attack.

The fire demon swung his fire whip vigilantly, colliding with the incoming magic spell.

The fire whip shattered instantly, and the killing curse was also offset.

At the moment when the Balrog was distracted, Gandalf gathered his strength and struck the stone bridge hard with his staff.

With a loud bang, the stone bridge collapsed rapidly under the powerful force, and stones fell into the abyss.

The bridge surface under the Fire Demon's feet also broke, and its huge body lost its support. With a terrifying roar, it fell into the abyss.

But the next second, a whip of fire flew out from the abyss and swept directly towards Gandalf.

"Protect yourself with armor!" Dui was well prepared and immediately provided protection for Gandalf.

The fire whip was blocked by the iron armor spell and returned in vain.

But then it stretched out again like a fire snake and directly coiled around a protruding stone wall above the abyss below.

Relying on the fire whip, the figure of the fire demon quickly approached upwards from the abyss again.

Upon seeing this, Dui drew out the divine spear Aegros without hesitation, concentrated all his strength, gathered magic power on the divine spear, and suddenly thrust it deep into the ground.

The ground cracked instantly, and the remaining half of the stone bridge and the stone wall extending to the abyss were broken and fell into the abyss, knocking down the fire demon that was climbing up below.

Chapter 168 Unknown Creature

"Smaug, take us down!"

Dewi and Gandalf quickly jumped onto Smaug's back.

Smaug fell freely towards the abyss with the two people on his back.

The abyss under Durin's Bridge was not dug by the dwarves, but was a naturally formed abyss crack inside the mountain.

The abyss is bottomless. Even the dwarves who once lived here did not know how deep it was, and no one had ever measured it.

Dui and Gandalf followed the giant dragon Smaug and continued to fall into the abyss. The cold wind around them was howling rapidly, making people's faces hurt.

They didn't know how long they had been falling. Was it ten minutes, an hour, or a day?

It was pitch black in the abyss, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Fortunately, Dui and Gandalf were both clinging to the dragon's back, and the dragon Smaug blocked most of the wind, so they were able to open their eyes and observe everything around them.

Just when Dui was wondering if he had reached the depths of the earth.

Smaug quickly spread his wings, and his descent speed dropped sharply. He warned, "Master, the Balrog is below, and it is climbing up!"

Dui and Gandalf looked down into the dark abyss and saw a little fire flickering below, which was growing bigger and bigger.

In a pitch-black environment, the firelight is always so conspicuous.

Soon, they saw the fire demon waving a whip of fire and moving quickly up the stone wall of the abyss.

The originally cold air around became hot.

The fire demon below also noticed the presence of Dui and others above. Suddenly, he became extremely jealous when seeing his enemies. He let out an ear-splitting roar at them, and then rushed towards them quickly along the steep and smooth stone wall as if it were flat ground.

Dewi took out the last three bottles of fireproof potion, gave one to himself and Gandalf, and then fed one to Smaug.

After drinking the fireproof potion, Smaug felt a chill all over his body. The fire in his stomach was extinguished instantly, and for a moment he couldn't even spit out dragon flames.

"Master?" Smaug asked in confusion.

"Don't let the fire demon escape. Hold it tightly. Once it falls into the water under the abyss, its strength will be greatly reduced and it will no longer pose a threat to us!" Dui said.

The next moment, the Flame Demon's flaming whip arrived.

The long whip directly wrapped around Smaug's feet,

Smaug was surprised to find that the Balrog's flames seemed to pose no threat to him. He immediately bit the flaming whip and pulled it up along with the Balrog below.

Then he grabbed the fire demon tightly and fell down again with it.

The Balrog struggled continuously, releasing terrifying demonic flames that surrounded the dragon Smaug, along with Due and Gandalf on his back.

Thanks to the fireproof potion, Dui and Gandalf were not burned, but they also knew that the effect of the potion would not last long.

If they still fail to deal with the fire demon before then, they will all be severely burned by the flames or even burned to death.

As the dragon Smaug and the Balrog continued to fight, Dui and Gandalf also fell freely.

Gandalf's staff had been lost long ago. Holding the flaming sword and the smiting sword in each hand, he jumped up from Smaug, landed on the Balrog's back, and thrust the flaming sword into the Balrog's back. While falling, he fought with him with the other smiting sword.

Dui could only hear the rapid and sharp sound of the wind around him, and his eyes were almost closed, but seeing Smaug and Gandalf fighting with the Balrog, he gritted his teeth, grasped his staff, and released a spell with all his strength.

"The golden bell falls to the ground!"

As the spell was cast, all the people who were already falling rapidly suddenly felt like they were being dropped by a heavy weight, and they fell even faster.

The rapid fall turned the flames on the fire demon's body into a long fire tail.

The strong feeling of weightlessness made Dui float up, and he could only hold on to Smaug's dragon tail tightly to avoid being thrown away.

Soon, a gust of cold water vapor came towards me.

"Master, we are almost at the bottom of the abyss!" Smaug's voice came into Dui's ears amid the rushing wind.

Perhaps sensing the deep water below, the Balrog struggled frantically, and instantly erupted with terrifying, scorching flames, enveloping Dui, Gandalf, and Smaug in a sea of ​​fire.

Even with the protection of fire retardant, Dui still felt the burning sensation.

There was fire all around him, and even the breath he inhaled was flames. The clothes on his body and the space bag were all burned by the flames. With crackling sounds, everything in the space bag gushed out and flew in all directions.

But Dui no longer cared about these things. He quickly grabbed the divine spear Aegros, then jumped towards the Balrog, and inserted it directly into one of the Balrog's eyes, releasing the power of destruction.

The divine spear burst out with such force that it blew off half of the fire demon's head.

But the body of the fire demon is made of flames, and as long as the flames are not extinguished, it will not die.

The half of the fire demon's head that was blown off grew back again under the rapid replenishment of flames.

However, Dui showed a relieved expression.

Because when half of the Fire Demon's head was blown off, although he did not die, his thinking was temporarily suspended.

The result was that they had reached the bottom of the abyss.

"Shock absorber to stop speed!" Dui's voice sounded.

Dui, Gandalf and Smaug all instantly hovered dozens of centimeters above the water surface, avoiding being smashed into pieces.

The fire demon fell directly into the deep water without any deceleration, creating a huge splash.

At the same time, there is the crackling sound when water and fire meet.

After hovering for almost a second, Dui, Gandalf, and Smaug fell heavily into the water.

Dui instantly felt like he had entered an ice cave. The water around him was so cold that his blood vessels and heart seemed to be frozen.

It was pitch black all around, with no light at all.

Dui released a ball of light that illuminated the water surface at the bottom of the abyss.

Only then did I see Smaug, Gandalf, and the Balrog!

Dui quickly climbed onto Smaug's back, thus avoiding the consequences of freezing to death by continuing to soak in the water.

But at this time, Gandalf was still fighting with the Balrog.

"Evil spirit, this is the realm of Ulmo, you have no power here!" Gandalf's voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the abyss, and the sword in his hand shone with light.

As if to confirm Gandalf's words, the Balrog fell into the water and all the flames on his body were extinguished.

It became extremely weak and turned into a sticky, dark shape.

Although it is still powerful, it is much weaker than before.

His strength is not much different from Gandalf's.

"Master, you come down too!" A hissing voice suddenly sounded from the side.

Then the serpent monster Herpo emerged from the water and asked Dui happily with his eyes closed.

"Helpo!" Dui was stunned for a moment, then surprised.

When Helpo and the underwater watcher were thrown into the abyss by the fire demon, he was a little worried about Helpo's safety, but he didn't expect that he was fine.

He immediately ordered the basilisk: "Herpo, go and help Gandalf. Use your eyes and fangs to fight the Balrog!"
