"The temperature is outrageous. It feels like it could rival the flames of the Red King." Huo Wu wiped the sweat from her forehead, then stood at the foot of the volcano.
The moment she stood firm, Huo Wu flew up. The ground temperature was too hot; even if she wrapped her feet in spirit power, her shoes couldn't withstand it.
She also summoned the Red King.
"Why did you summon me?" The Red King was very relaxed now, no longer needing to be the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's bodyguard and just sleeping every day.
"Don't you think this place is a bit strange?" Huo Wu asked.
The Red King heard her, looked around, and after a long while, he frowned.
"It is a bit strange. It's not like I haven't seen volcanoes before. This volcano's temperature is very high, and it looks like it hasn't stopped erupting for at least ten years. But it only erupts flames, unlike other volcanoes."
"Do you think there might be a Divinity's inheritance here, like the Fire God?"
The Red King's eyes lit up, and he nodded heavily: "Very possible. This place is too strange. I've been to dozens, if not hundreds, of volcanoes, but I've never seen one like this. I suspect it's inside the crater."
"Uh… do you think I can go in with my current strength? The temperature here is already so high, and the temperature in the crater is probably even higher." Huo Wu was a little embarrassed.
She had found a magical place, but she didn't seem to have the ability to enter.
"I'll go! I'm a spirit soul now, so I don't feel the damage from flames!" The Red King said with his head held high.
"Good point, you don't have a physical body now, so you won't be burned by flames. It's perfect for you to go!" Huo Wu nodded.
"I'm leaving. You be careful."
"Okay, be careful."
The Red King nodded, leaped up, and flew directly towards the crater.
The scorching heatwave made his dark red fur dance wildly.
Just as he was about to disappear into the crater.
With a loud boom!
The side wall of the volcano suddenly exploded, and countless scorching hot gravel scattered.
A colossal creature raised its head from the magma. It was over thirty meters long, entirely condensed from dark red flames.
It locked onto the Red King in the air.
It opened its giant mouth, large enough to swallow a hill, and lunged towards the Red King.
"Red King, be careful!"
Huo Wu was stunned for a moment. She felt this didn't look like a Spirit Beast.
The Red King reacted extremely quickly, spewing a mouthful of flames, then using the powerful impact to push himself away, dodging the flame giant python's attack.
The Red King returned to Huo Wu's side: "Huo Wu, be careful, this guy is condensed from flame energy, not a Spirit Beast."
"There's actually such a creature."
"It's not a creature, is it?"
"Don't mind such details."
"When the attribute energy of a place is too concentrated, it's very easy for such energy creatures to be born," the Red King immediately said.
"But didn't your Star Dou Great Forest not have any?"
"It's different. The attribute energy I'm talking about is a single attribute. Places like the Star Dou Great Forest and the Extreme North Land are multi-attribute, so it's impossible for such energy creatures to be born there."
"I see."
"Be careful, here it comes!"
Huo Wu and the Red King dodged the flame giant python's pounce from left and right. This flame giant python seemed to have no intelligence, only knowing to attack, constantly attacking.
"Damn it! Why is it staring at me? Isn't that woman more tender?" The Red King was speechless.
"Red King, I heard that."
"Let's fight it!" The Red King was a bit embarrassed and said loudly.
Huo Wu's eighth spirit ring around her body suddenly burst forth with dazzling red light.
"Eighth Spirit Ability · Sky Burning Soul Locking Seal!"
A brand, condensed from ultimate fire, flew out from her palm, ignoring the high temperature on the flame giant python's surface, and imprinted itself on its body at the seven-inch position.
The moment the brand formed, the flame giant python seemed to have no reaction at all, but this Spirit Ability was not that simple.
During the duration of the Sky Burning Soul Locking Seal, all fire-type damage taken by the target will be increased by 40%!
Furthermore, Huo Wu could detonate the brand at any time, causing massive true damage, and even replenish her own spirit power when the brand was dispelled.
As for how much true damage would be dealt, it depended on how much damage they could inflict during the ten-second duration of the Sky Burning Soul Locking Seal.
This was precisely the domineering aspect of the Sky Burning Soul Locking Seal!
The moment the brand was applied, the Red King and Huo Wu's offensive suddenly became furious.
The Red King roared, and the Hellfire spewing from his mouth had completely turned into a deep dark red, a symbol of ultimate fire.
Originally, the Red King's Hellfire was close to ultimate fire, and after eating a lot of Xiao Ze's spinach, the Red King's bloodline also improved. Now his Hellfire was already ultimate fire.
Wherever the scorching pillar of fire passed, space twisted. Even though the flame giant python's body was an energy body and would not suffer physical damage, and even had some fire immunity, the Red King's Hellfire was too strong.
It was not something an ordinary energy creature could withstand.
On the other side, Huo Wu's figure weaved through the sky full of flowing fire. Her Spirit, having undergone a second evolution, was already a true divine-grade Spirit, and the quality of her flames also reached the level of ultimate fire.
She waved her hands, and condensed fire whips lashed out at the flame giant python's body.
One beast and one person, one left and one right, one front and one back, relying on the absolute suppression of ultimate fire over ordinary flames, and the terrifying damage amplification effect brought by the Sky Burning Soul Locking Seal, completely suppressed the flame giant python.
The flame giant python let out a deafening roar to the sky, and the flame energy of the entire crater boiled.
Visible dark red energy frantically poured into its massive body.
Seeing this, the Red King was not surprised but delighted, a cunning light flashing in his eyes as he shouted to Huo Wu: "Huo Wu, just keep wearing it down! The more it absorbs, the weaker the volcano's own energy becomes! Once it absorbs most of the flame energy here, it will be much safer for you to enter the volcano's interior!"
"Understood!" Huo Wu immediately understood.
Her sixth Spirit Ability, Blazing Soul Domain, was fully activated.
Within the Domain, the power of her and the Red King's flames was significantly enhanced once again.
Huo Wu's figure became elusive within the Domain; she could instantly switch positions with any mass of fire within the Domain.
Whenever the flame giant python spewed molten fireballs at her, she would instantly dissipate into flowing fire, appearing in another direction, then immediately condensing a fireball and smashing it fiercely onto the flame giant python's body.
While spewing ultimate fire to harass, the Red King enviously watched Huo Wu's elusive figure. This Domain was simply too practical in combat.
This war of attrition lasted for nearly half an hour.
The flame giant python's figure gradually became ethereal and dim.
It frantically drew volcanic energy to sustain itself, causing the temperature of the entire crater to drop significantly.
