When Chen Tian looked at the card, he saw a mountain range carved across it. The mountains were covered in ice, and a blood-colored giant dragon stood among them!

It was said to be a dragon, but it had a human face. How strange!

Everyone should know who it was. It might not be the strongest figure in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but it ranked near the top. Candle Dragon!

According to the records, Candle Dragon, also known as Candle Yin, was a legless dragon from ancient Chinese mythology. As the mountain god of Bell Mountain and Zhangwei Mountain, it held a candle in its mouth and possessed various wondrous abilities. However, Candle Dragon was weaker than Yinglong and was not strong enough to become a heavenly deity. In the end, it died of old age. Even its descendant, named Drum, was executed by the Heavenly Emperor.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas also recorded that Candle Dragon lived in the bitterly cold northern lands. It was a thousand li long, with a human face and a scarlet serpentine body. It was also the mountain god of Bell Mountain and Zhangwei Mountain. However, its bestial nature outweighed its human aspect, so it could not advance to become a heavenly deity.

Although it held a candle in its mouth and possessed the strange abilities to make day come when it opened its eyes, night fall when it closed them, winter arrive when it inhaled, summer come when it exhaled, and summon wind and rain, it ultimately died of old age.

There was also a legend that Candle Dragon had originally been evil and thrown Heaven and Earth into chaos before Nuwa subdued it. It had a son named Drum, who was executed east of Bell Mountain.
