The Flame Demon hadn't enjoyed his life for long before Huo Wu silently eliminated him.
Of course, Huo Wu and Quan Yi couldn't possibly know about the Flame Demon.
After collecting the bones, Quan Yi held Huo Wu's small hand and summoned the Scarlet Dragon again, rushing out of the cave.
Without the Magma Dogs, Quan Yi didn't need to hide and flew directly out of the cave.
Huo Wu stood aside, watching the direction of Quan Yi's flight, feeling slightly strange.
She asked, "Xiao Yi, isn't this direction the route to Saus City?"
Quan Yi replied, "Well, before we leave, I need to confirm something."
With that, Quan Yi flew rapidly towards a certain part of the Star Dou Great Forest.
...
A quarter of an hour later, Quan Yi arrived at a high altitude above a certain part of the forest.
Huo Wu looked at the scenery below, a familiar feeling in her heart. She said, "Isn't this a place we've been to before?"
Quan Yi looked at Huo Wu in surprise and said, "You can tell even from this height."
Huo Wu glared at him unhappily and said, "There's such a big Volcano below, only a blind person wouldn't be able to see it, okay?
But, what's here that's worth you coming back for?"
Quan Yi looked down, and in his Scarlet Dragon Eye, he could see the vast Fire Element energy hidden beneath the giant Volcano.
In terms of energy reserves, it wasn't the highest among all the elemental sources Quan Yi sensed, but the purity of the energy was the highest, and the volume was the smallest.
Moreover, unlike Soul Beasts, this energy was not active.
Quan Yi, through the Eye of True Sight, discovered that this was a uniquely shaped mineral.
Now that it was time to return, Quan Yi would not forget it.
Quan Yi retracted his gaze and replied, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be powerful Fire Element ore hidden below. I've never seen such a peculiar metal before. Before we leave, I want to dig it out."
Huo Wu was a little surprised to hear this, but she didn't say much. She knew Quan Yi ran a Blacksmith Shop.
Moreover, ore that could attract Quan Yi's attention was definitely not ordinary, and curiosity arose in her heart.
...
The Scarlet Dragon landed in the Volcano, revealing a scene of birds and flowers.
Huo Wu said in surprise, "You really can't tell from the sky, the Volcano is so vibrant."
"It's unknown how long this Volcano has been formed. After the heat dissipates, life will regenerate here."
According to Quan Yi's judgment, this should be a dormant Volcano that erupted in ancient times.
Within Quan Yi's visible range, there was no longer any lava activity.
However, the lava had left behind a special ore.
Quan Yi was going to dig this thing out today.
"Xiao Wu, please step back a bit. This thing is deep underground and will take some time."
Huo Wu retreated while saying, "Deep? Don't you need my help?"
Quan Yi smiled and said, "It's quite deep, but I'm enough alone."
With that, the Scarlet Dragon carrying the two of them turned into light spots and poured into Quan Yi's body. Immediately afterward, these light spots condensed into two huge Dragon Claws, covering Quan Yi's arms.
Watching Quan Yi wielding the huge Dragon Claws, Huo Wu couldn't help but say, "Soul Skills can be used like this?"
When Quan Yi's Dragon Claws were opened, they could easily grab an independent bungalow.
The sharp claws and powerful strength allowed him to easily dig into the ground.
The hard ground was like soft tofu, and Quan Yi grabbed out a large amount of soil and Rock.
...
Four or five hours passed, the sky turned from dark to light, and the mountain-opening and stone-chiseling project lasted a whole night.
Thanks to Quan Yi's energy reserves and energy-absorbing effect of the Scarlet Dragon Horns for driving the Sixth Soul Skill for so long.
Otherwise, even if Quan Yi reduced the volume, it would not be possible to last so long.
However, under Quan Yi's tireless excavation, a huge amount of soil and Rock accumulated near the cave, and a hole hundreds of meters deep appeared in the ground.
Huo Wu sat cross-legged around the cave entrance, idly watching the situation outside.
During Quan Yi's excavation, Huo Wu had intended to help him ward off Soul Beast intrusions, but she discovered that no Soul Beasts had approached them for a long time.
After asking, she learned that Quan Yi was releasing a small amount of Dragon Might while digging, which deterred nearby Soul Beasts from approaching.
This left Huo Wu with no chance to show off her skills.
Deep underground, Quan Yi spread his claws and tirelessly dug.
His expression hadn't changed much over this long period, and he hadn't even broken a sweat.
This was because Quan Yi was using a Soul Skill, not physical strength. He was only consuming some mental energy and Soul Power, and his claws would automatically help him dig.
Taking advantage of this time, Quan Yi used Dual-Mindedness and the Scarlet Dragon Eye to observe the changes in his Sixth Soul Ring while activating the Soul Skill.
After several hours of observation, Quan Yi discovered that the Soul Ring patterns would selectively light up as he controlled his claws.
For example, when Quan Yi used the 'grip' action, Soul Power would only pass through a portion of the patterns.
And when Quan Yi 'released,' Soul Power would flow through other patterns.
It was like the control panel of an appliance. People can easily grasp how to use the remote control based on the instructions, but they cannot see the operation of the complex circuit board inside.
However, now, Quan Yi could understand the principle by observing.
This was of great help to Quan Yi in controlling the Soul Power patterns.
Immediately afterward, Quan Yi moved his Dragon Claws to his back, freeing his hands to continuously record the observed patterns.
This action continued until Quan Yi was about to reach his target.
"Finally found it."
Approaching the target, Quan Yi could even feel a terrifyingly hot aura from the other side of the Rock.
As Quan Yi continued to dig deeper, the hard soil and Rock became soft. Gradually, Quan Yi even began to dig out a large piece of molten lava.
However, the scalding lava was like soft mud to Quan Yi, who possessed Fire Immunity. Quan Yi quickly cleared it away.
It was hard to imagine that there would be lava in a dormant Volcano, but the high temperature emitted by the ore could even melt Rock.
Therefore, a shallow lava zone appeared around the ore.
Just as Quan Yi's claws were working rapidly, Quan Yi's Scarlet Dragon Eye flashed with a sharp light.
Immediately, Quan Yi's right claw stabbed downwards.
"Clang!"
The sharp Dragon Claw seemed to have hit extremely hard metal, making a huge clang.
"So hard!"
An unexpected smile appeared on the corner of Quan Yi's mouth.
He quickly grabbed the hard metal and tried to pull it out.
However, when Quan Yi wanted to rely on the power of the Scarlet Dragon Claw to pull it out of the magma, Quan Yi felt its terrifying weight through the Dragon Claw.
"Huh, such a small volume, yet so heavy. It must weigh at least ten thousand kilograms."
Surprise flashed in Quan Yi's eyes.
It should be noted that this was only about one cubic meter of ore, but it had such a terrifying weight.
However, this little weight was nothing in front of Quan Yi.
The Scarlet Dragon Claw steadily gripped the irregular ore and slowly pulled it up.
As the ore was dragged out of the lava, a rich Fire Element aura, accompanied by terrifying fire poison, rushed towards him.
