Scarlet Demon Fine Gold
Unfortunately, the Flame Demon didn't get to enjoy its good fortune for long before Huo Wu silently wiped it out.
Of course, neither Huo Wu nor Quan Yi could possibly know anything about the Flame Demon.
After collecting the remains, Quan Yi grasped Huo Wu's small hand, summoned the Scarlet Dragon again, and rushed out of the cave.
Without the Magma Dog, Quan Yi no longer needed to hide and flew directly out of the cave.
Huo Wu stood to the side, looking at the direction Quan Yi was flying in, with a slightly strange expression.
She asked, "Xiao Yi, this direction shouldn't be the route to Saus City, right?"
Quan Yi replied, "Yes, before I leave, I need to confirm something."
As he spoke, Quan Yi sped off towards a certain spot in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Fifteen minutes later, Quan Yi arrived at a high altitude somewhere in the forest.
Huo Wu looked at the scenery at her feet, a sense of familiarity welling up inside her. She asked, "Isn't this a place we've been before?"
Quan Yi looked at Huo Wu in surprise and said, "You can even tell that she's so tall."
Huo Wu glanced at it irritably and said, "The Volcano Crater below is so big, anyone who isn't blind can see it, okay?"
But what is it about here that would make you want to come back again?
Quan Yi looked down and, in his Scarlet Dragon Eye, he could see the immense fiery energy hidden beneath the giant Volcano Crater.
In terms of energy reserves, it is not the first among all the elemental sources that Quan Yi senses, but it has the highest purity of energy and the smallest volume.
Moreover, unlike Soul Beast, this energy is not active.
Quan Yi, through his Eye of True Sight and with penetrating insight, discovered that it was a uniquely shaped mineral.
Now that it's time to go back, Quan Yi will certainly not forget it.
Quan Yi withdrew his gaze and replied, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be a powerful Fire Element ore hidden below. I've never seen such a peculiar metal before. Before I leave, I want to dig it out."
Huo Wu was somewhat surprised to hear this, but she didn't say much. She knew very well what Quan Yi was doing running the Blacksmith Shop.
Moreover, the mineral that could attract Quan Yi's attention must be extraordinary, and her curiosity was piqued.
The Scarlet Dragon landed in the Volcano Crater, and what appeared before it was a scene of birdsong and fragrant flowers.
Huo Wu exclaimed in surprise, "You really can't tell from the sky that the Volcano Crater is so full of life."
"It is unknown how long ago this Volcano Crater was formed. Once the heat dissipates, life will flourish here again."
According to Quan Yi's assessment, this should be a dormant volcano that erupted in ancient times.
Within the visible range of Quan Yi, there is no longer any magma activity.
However, when the lava receded, it left behind a special mineral.
Quan Yi, we're going to dig this thing out today.
"Xiao Wu, step back a little. This thing is deep underground and will take some time."
Huo Wu retreated while asking, "Is it deep? Don't you need my help?"
Quan Yi smiled and said, "It is quite deep, but I alone am enough."
As he spoke, the Scarlet Dragon carrying the two of them transformed into points of light and surged into Quan Yi's body. Then, these points of light condensed into two enormous dragon claws, covering Quan Yi's arms.
Seeing Izumi wielding a giant dragon Quan Yi, Huo Wu couldn't help but exclaim, "Soul Skill can be used like this?"
When Quan Yi's dragon claws open, they can easily grab a small, detached house.
Its sharp claws and powerful strength allow it to easily dig into the ground.
The hard ground, as soft as tofu, was dug up by Quan Yi, who pulled out a large amount of soil and rocks.
Four or five hours passed, and the sky turned from dark to light. The project of quarrying and chiseling the mountain had continued for the entire night.
The fact that Quan Yi could use his Sixth Soul Skill for so long was largely thanks to the energy reserves and Energy Absorption effect of the Scarlet Dragon Horns.
Otherwise, even if Quan Yi had shrunk in size, it would have been impossible for him to maintain that size for so long.
However, thanks to Quan Yi's tireless digging, a huge amount of soil and rocks accumulated near the cave entrance, and a cave entrance hundreds of meters deep appeared on the ground.
Huo Wu sat cross-legged around the cave entrance, idly observing the situation there.
During the time that Quan Yi was digging, Huo Wu wanted to help Quan Yi get rid of the troubles caused by the Soul Beast, but she found that not a single Soul Beast had come near them for so long.
After inquiring, she learned that Quan Yi had released a small amount of Dragon Might while digging, which kept the nearby Soul Beast away.
This meant that Huo Wu had no chance to show off her skills.
Deep underground, Quan Yi spread out his two claws and dug tirelessly.
His complexion didn't change much over such a long period of time, and there wasn't even a trace of sweat.
This is because Quan Yi uses Soul Skill, not physical strength. He only consumes some Divine Power and Soul Power power, and his claws automatically dig for him.
Taking advantage of this time, Quan Yi used his Dual-Mindedness and his Scarlet Dragon Eye to observe the changes in his Sixth Soul Ring when it activated its Soul Skill.
After observing for several hours, Quan Yi discovered that as he controlled his claws, the Soul Ring patterns would selectively light up.
For example, when Quan Yi uses the action of 'gripping', his Soul Power only passes through a portion of the patterns.
When Quan Yi 'let go', his Soul Power will flow through other patterns.
It's like the control panel of Electrical Appliances. People can easily learn how to use Control Artifacts by following the instructions, but they can't see how the complex circuit boards inside work.
However, now, Quan Yi is able to understand the underlying principles through observation.
This greatly helps Quan Yi in controlling the patterns of Soul Power.
Immediately afterwards, Quan Yi moved the dragon claws behind his back, freeing his hands to continuously record the patterns he observed.
This action continued until Quan Yi was about to reach his target.
"I finally found it."
As they approached their target, Quan Yi could even feel a terrifyingly hot aura emanating from the opposite side of the rock.
As Quan Yi continued to dig deeper, the hard soil and rocks softened, and gradually, Quan Yi even began to dig out a large chunk of molten lava.
However, the scalding lava was like soft mud to Quan Yi, who was Fire Immunity Attribute, Quan Yi quickly cleared it away.
It's hard to imagine magma in an extinct volcano, but the high temperatures emitted by the minerals can even melt the rocks.
Therefore, a shallow magma zone appeared around the ore.
Just as Quan Yi's claws were moving rapidly, a sharp glint flashed in Quan Yi's Scarlet Dragon Eye.
Immediately, Quan Yi thrust his right claw downwards.
"Clang!"
The sharp dragon claws seemed to have struck extremely hard metal, producing a loud clanging sound.
"So hard!"
An unexpected smile appeared on Quan Yi's lips.
He quickly grabbed the hard metal and pulled it out with force.
However, when Quan Yi tried to use the power of the Scarlet Dragon Claw to pull it out of the lava, Quan Yi felt its terrifying weight through the dragon's claw.
"Huh, it's so small, yet it's so heavy. It must weigh at least 10,000 kilograms."
A look of surprise flashed across Quan Yi.
Keep in mind that this is only about one cubic meter of ore, yet it has such a terrifying weight.
However, this weight is nothing compared to Quan Yi's.
The Scarlet Dragon Claw firmly gripped the irregular ore and slowly pulled it up.
As the ore was dragged up from the lava, a rich aura of Fire Element, accompanied by terrifying Fire Poison, rushed towards us.
