The crowd's gazes turned towards the Volcano Crater, with Quan Li and Yun Qiong's expressions becoming especially grave.
"It's actually inside the Volcano. Xiao Yi, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Quan Li asked seriously.
Quan Yi also nodded solemnly, replying, "Undead-type Soul Beasts possess a completely different energy form from other Soul Beasts. I won't be mistaken."
Quan Li's face stiffened as he looked at the scalding magma. He said with a bitter tone, "With such a large Volcano's assistance, this Soul Beast's strength is definitely not to be underestimated. If it doesn't come out, what should we do?"
The magma's temperature was over a thousand degrees. Even a Titled Douluo could only stay inside it for a short time.
The terror of natural power was not a joke.
At this moment, Quan Yi spoke his plan first.
"Grandpa, don't forget that there's only one Volcano Crater, so we can clearly observe its movements.
As long as we patiently wait for the Soul Beast to leave and return, we can kill it outside the magma."
Quan Yi's method was actually very simple: relying on the fact that the opponent hadn't discovered them, they would observe its movements from a distance.
As long as it came out of the Volcano Crater, they could avoid the risk of fighting in the unfavorable terrain of the magma.
"Yes, Xiao Yi is right. There's no need for us to be so impatient. We just need to patiently wait for the opportunity on the periphery."
Yun Qiong nodded in agreement.
This was the absolute advantage brought by Quan Yi's super-strong perception ability.
Quan Yi steered the Scarlet Dragon to hover at a safe height where they wouldn't be discovered, and began to patiently observe the Volcano Crater.
The energy form of undead creatures appeared spherical, so he couldn't determine the type of undead through its shape.
However, based on the ink-black color of the Soul Power, he could roughly determine that this was a Soul Beast approaching the hundred-thousand-year level.
In terms of strength, it was definitely stronger than the Blue Silver Seaweed King they had hunted not long ago.
At this moment, Huo Wu beside Quan Yi gently tugged at Quan Yi.
Huo Wu looked at Quan Yi with bright eyes, as if conveying some kind of information.
Quan Yi smiled softly and replied, "I know, don't worry."
Huo Wu smiled sweetly, and then sat cross-legged on the dragon's back, beginning Meditation.
Huo Wu's meaning was very simple: she wanted to leave the Soul Beast to her; she wanted to hunt the Soul Beast herself.
Being watched by Huo Wu's gaze filled with endless fighting spirit, how could Quan Yi not understand?
Time passed bit by bit.
The sun slowly descended, and the western sky had been dyed golden.
However, this undead seemed to have no intention of leaving, and it seemed to have been in a dormant state all along.
Therefore, they decided to wait a little longer.
In the monotonous wait, the sun completely set.
Under the night, Quan Yi used his Second Soul Skill, Dark Flame Power, to transform the Scarlet Dragon into a dark black color, completing its concealment.
At this height, even if the Soul Beast looked in their direction, it wouldn't be able to detect anything unusual.
"Xiao Yi, why don't we land first and rest for a while?"
Quan Li walked to Quan Yi's side and suggested.
Quan Yi's Soul Power recovered extremely quickly in the volcanic environment, so he didn't expend too much.
However, it was meaningless to wait bitterly like this when the Soul Beast hadn't moved for a long time.
Therefore, he nodded and agreed to Quan Li's suggestion.
However, just as Quan Yi was slowly descending, his elemental perception detected signs of active undead energy.
Immediately, he stopped descending and urgently reminded, "Quick, something seems to be happening."
"What!"
Quan Li's exclamation once again drew everyone's attention.
Huo Wu, who was in meditation, also opened her eyes, then took the binoculars Yun Qiong handed her and looked towards the Volcano Crater.
At night, the firelight emitted by the scalding magma was deep and profound, but it also made it extremely conspicuous.
However, just as Huo Wu saw the Volcano Crater, countless tiny bubbles began to rise in the calm magma.
The magma bubbles burst, and countless scorching fragments sprayed in all directions.
However, before Huo Wu could observe carefully, a huge vortex appeared in the thick magma, and then, a huge red light suddenly burst from the center of the vortex.
Countless lava erupted from the vortex and exploded in the air like fireworks.
The scene, like a Volcano eruption, appeared before their eyes, bringing a huge impact to their hearts.
At this moment, Quan Yi's voice came again: "Don't look at the Volcano Crater, look at the sky!"
Huo Wu then realized that the red light that had just erupted was that Soul Beast.
She immediately raised her binoculars and looked in the direction the red light was shooting.
She saw a flamboyant, fiery red figure reflected in the dark night sky.
This figure was entwined with burning flames, but she could clearly see the figure hidden beneath the flames through the firelight.
It was a skeleton faintly glowing with white jade luster.
No flesh, only bones.
This was a typical undead characteristic.
A look of excitement flashed in Huo Wu's eyes.
She quickly scanned the bones, wanting to judge the undead's species before death.
At this moment, Quan Yi's leisurely voice entered her ears.
"The head of a snake, the tail of a fish, the chin of a swallow, the beak of a chicken, and wings side by side.
Xiao Wu, you're in luck this time, it's an Undead Phoenix."
Phoenix!
Huo Wu looked at the huge flying bird soaring with its wings spread, her eyes bursting with intense desire.
The appearance of the Bone Phoenix plunged everyone present into a frenzy.
The Phoenix was a top-level beast, almost a mythical existence.
Unexpectedly, such an existence actually appeared here.
Everyone determined at the same time that it was the target they had formed for this trip.
"Haha, it turned out to be an undead formed after a Phoenix fell. Judging from its size, its strength before death must have been considerable."
Yun Qiong was also observing the Phoenix's size with binoculars.
She saw giant bone wings with a wingspan of a hundred meters bursting with brilliant firelight.
The skeleton was filled with raging firelight. If viewed from a distance, one would only think it was a living Phoenix.
The Bone Phoenix rushed out of the Volcano Crater and flew towards the distant ocean.
With a flap of its bone wings, the red light flew hundreds of meters away. In terms of flight speed alone, it exceeded the Scarlet Dragon's flight speed.
As expected of a top-level avian Soul Beast, its flight speed was indeed very fast.
Seeing that the Bone Phoenix was about to leave the island, Huo Wu couldn't help but anxiously ask, "Where is it going? Don't we need to follow it?"
"It should be going to forage for food. I saw huge fish bones in the forest near the Volcano."
Quan Li comforted Huo Wu.
Huo Wu was relieved to hear this.
Don't blame Huo Wu for being too hasty, it was all because this Bone Phoenix was too tempting.
As long as one was a Fire-attribute Soul Master, no, as long as the Martial Soul attribute didn't conflict with the Fire-attribute, any Soul Master would fall into the same emotions as Huo Wu.
Quan Yi didn't choose to follow because he knew the other party would definitely return.
At the same time, his gaze had been following the Bone Phoenix all along.
"Everyone gather around first, let's discuss this properly."
