Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Within Sun and Moon City, Qian Xunzong had completely consolidated his realm. His Soul Power circulated smoothly and naturally, and he had fully mastered his newly absorbed Soul Bone skills and Soul Ring abilities. His combat strength had surged severalfold.
After finishing their rest, Qian Xunzong immediately gathered everyone. His gaze was firm as he spoke in a deep voice:
"Rest is over. We depart at once for the Endless Volcanoes!"
Everyone answered in unison without hesitation. The group immediately set off, heading straight for the Endless Volcanoes, rumored to nurture supreme fire-element Soul Beasts!
The Endless Volcanoes stretched for thousands of miles, filled with crimson lava. The mountains were red-hot, volcanic smoke blanketed the sky, and the air brimmed with incomparably violent fire-element Soul Power. The scorching temperature was unbearable; an ordinary Soul Master would be burned the instant they entered.
"Target located. Deep underground—the Lihuo Chiyang Phoenix!"
Qian Xunzong's gaze pierced through the thick rock layers, accurately locking onto the ultimate Soul Beast hidden in the volcano's depths. He raised a hand, signaling everyone to retreat.
"All personnel, withdraw to a safe area. Prepare the Soul Tools for bombardment!"
Everyone swiftly retreated, moving away from the volcano's core.
The next moment, dozens of top-tier High-Grade Soul Tools activated simultaneously. Dazzling beams of energy converged into a destructive pillar of light and violently blasted into the underground rock layers of the Endless Volcanoes!
Boom!!!
A heaven-shaking explosion erupted. The thick volcanic rock instantly shattered, blazing lava surged into the sky, the entire volcano trembled violently, and billowing smoke and towering flames filled the air!
"Screech—!!!"
A sharp, piercing phoenix cry resounded through heaven and earth. Violent fire-element Soul Power exploded wildly from underground as a crimson figure wreathed in flames
