Quan Yi immediately grabbed Huo Wu's arm and said with a wry smile, "Don't rush, I still have something to say."

Huo Wu asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"

Quan Yi said, "The Fire Spirit Ghost King is indeed very much in line with your description of existing in a pure energy form. Therefore, to kill the Fire Spirit Ghost King, you must use an energy attack."

However, Xiao Wu, as Fire-attribute Spirit Master, your fire attacks cannot cause effective damage to it.

Furthermore, compared to other Soul Beast, the Fire Spirit Ghost King, as a special soul entity, possesses higher Divine Power than other Soul Beast of the same level.

Quan Yi's explanation caused Huo Wuxie's expression to change drastically.

He said, "So, if Xiao Wu absorbs the Fire Spirit Ghost King's Soul Ring, is there a great risk involved?"

Quan Yi nodded.

Huo Wuxie immediately shouted, "In that case, let's just give up."

Huo Wuxie's initial joy upon hearing about the Fire Spirit Ghost King was quickly replaced by a feeling of regret.

However, at this moment, Huo Wu's eyes were fixed on Quan Yi, and then she said, "Absorb the Fire Spirit Ghost King."

Hearing Huo Wu's stubbornness, Huo Wuxie felt a surge of anger and said, "Xiao Wu, this is not the time for you to be stubborn. To be honest, with your current Divine Power, you simply cannot withstand the Soul Ring of the 15,000-year-old Fire Spirit Ghost King."

Huo Wu smiled calmly and said, "Dad, don't worry. Since Xiao Yi has revealed the information about the Fire Spirit Ghost King, it means that he already has a plan."

Am I right, Xiao Yi?

Huo Wu looked at Quan Yi with a smile, her gaze fixed on him as if Quan Yi could see right through him.

Based on Huo Wu's understanding of Quan Yi, she knew that if the Fire Spirit Ghost King really couldn't be absorbed, Quan Yi wouldn't have said so much to her in the first place.

Quan Yi smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, I have a method that can ensure Huo Wu's safety to the Great Limit."

Huo Wuxie questioned, "What method do you have?"

"My Five Souls skill, Holy Judgment, has the ability to reduce the enemy's fighting spirit and weaken their Divine Power. I can use this move to weaken the Fire Spirit Ghost King's Divine Power to a level that Huo Wu can withstand."

Quan Yi confidently stated his plan.

Huo Wu's expression didn't change much when she heard Quan Yi's plan. Having learned about the effects of Quan Yi's Soul Skill, Huo Wu already had a guess in her heart.

Huo Wuxie, who was learning about Quan Yi's skill effects for the first time, exclaimed, "It's actually a rare mental-type Soul Skill, and its effects are to weaken the spirit and reduce hostility. No wonder you two reacted so calmly."

Now that Quan Yi has resolved all his worries, Huo Wuxie knows that he can no longer stop Huo Wu.

He said, "In that case, let's discuss it."

Quan Yi nodded and began to discuss the matter with the three of them in a low voice.

Ten minutes later, the three finished their discussion and quickly approached the location of the Fire Spirit Ghost King.

"Stop."

When they were about 200 meters away from the Fire Spirit Ghost King, Quan Yi raised his right hand, signaling to stop advancing.

After the three of them came to a sudden stop, they quickly climbed up a large tree to the side and stood on the high ground. Quan Yi pointed to the open space in front of them.

Huo Wu and Huo Wuxie looked in the direction Quan Yi pointed, and what came into view was a pink glow.

From a distance, a lush Peach Wood stands in the center of the open space, its dense branches adorned with countless peach blossoms.

A gentle breeze carries peach petals through the air, creating a scene so picturesque that it makes one forget the dangers around them.

Huo Wu and Huo Wuxie gazed at the breathtaking scenery, but their eyes showed no appreciation; instead, they became more vigilant.

Because, according to Quan Yi's account, they knew that the peach tree in front of them was actually a manifestation of the Fire Spirit Ghost King.

You know, it's the height of summer now, how could there possibly be a blooming Peach Tree deep in the lush forest?

However, after seeing it with their own eyes, the two of them could not see any flaws at all. The petals falling in the wind and the faint fragrance of flowers told them that the peach tree in front of them was real.

If Quan Yi hadn't been certain that the scene before him was the Fire Spirit Ghost King...

Quan Yi exchanged glances with the two, and Huo Wu and Huo Wuxie nodded in response.

The next moment, Quan Yi's body disappeared again, and when he reappeared, Quan Yi was already above the peach tree.

The distance between Peach Blossom and Quan Yi was less than fifty meters, but Peach Blossom made no move.

Quan Yi looked down at the ground, where the blooming flowers resembled a pink mist, and a feeling of reluctance to destroy them arose in his heart.

However, unlike the information conveyed by the eyes, the Fire-attribute perception conveyed by Quan Yi's Martial Soul brought Quan Yi completely different scene.

Within the Fire Element Perception, a constantly changing pink energy body emanates strong Fire-attribute fluctuations.

Its resting place was right in the center of the Peach Tree.

There are very few records about the Fire Spirit Ghost King Fire Spirit Ghost King, mainly because of his incredibly realistic illusion techniques.

The Fire Spirit Ghost King, as a special Soul Beast that combines soul and flame, has no fixed shape.

It will transform into its original shape based on the remaining memories and information of the soul, as proof of its existence in the world.

The soul of this Fire Spirit Ghost King was likely a peach blossom-type Plant-type Soul Beast in its previous life.

However, it is precisely because of this that it can exhibit behaviors that do not conform to the laws of nature.

This is still Fire Spirit Ghost King at the ten-thousand-year level. If it were at the Thousand Year level, they might not be able to change accurately.

"After all, it is Soul Beast that has not yet Spirit Awakening."

After saying that, Quan Yi raised his right hand to the sky.

Immediately, the Flame Pattern on the right-hand Blazing Sun Gauntlets emitted a golden light.

A powerful Energy Fluctuation erupted from Quan Yi's body.

Quan Yi hovered in the air and said calmly, "Five Souls Skill, Holy Judgment."

A rich golden energy was gathering in Quan Yi's right hand.

Sensing the Energy Fluctuation, the Peach Tree understood the impending crisis, and countless branches trembled.

"Swish~, swish~".

The Peach Tree, unable to roar, swayed its thick branches like other Plant-type Soul Beast that couldn't speak.

Among them, several brown branches burst forth from the pink mist, piercing the sky where Quan Yi was located.

Quan Yi, however, remained oblivious, quietly gathering energy in his right hand.

The branches soar into the sky, their tips resembling sharp spears, exuding a piercing aura.

However, when the thick, branch-like spear touched Quan Yi's body, the spear crumbled instantly, like an invisible cloud of smoke.

The brown branches also turned into a thick, pink, gaseous substance.

The pink, gaseous substance, after dissipating, was not blown away by the wind. Instead, it transformed into a ball of pink flames that entangled Quan Yi's body.

The pink, gaseous substance that makes up the tree branches is none other than the Fire Spirit Ghost King's special flame energy, a flame energy superimposed with Divine Power.

It was precisely because of this Divine Power that the Fire Spirit Ghost King possessed the ability to change and Simulation appearances. Huo Wu and Huo Wuxie, who were watching the battle from a distance, never sensed the aura of the flames from beginning to end.

It's worth noting that both of them are top-tier Fire-attribute Spirit Master, which demonstrates just how terrifying this ability is.
