Chapter 270: #270 - Balrog

The remaining five fire element sources are not only strong in signal but also relatively close to the center of the Star Dou Great Forest.

This means the difficulty and danger of the hunt will increase exponentially.

Therefore, Quan Yi originally wanted to find a suitable soul beast before this, but soul beasts that met Quan Yi's requirements were too rare.

After thinking for a moment, Huo Wu asked, "Are you trying to find a special soul beast like the Fire Spirit Ghost King?"

"That's right. You should have a deep understanding of how well the Fire Spirit Ghost King matches the Fire Shadow Martial Soul over the past two years."

So, it doesn't matter if you can't find one."

Although Huo Wu felt a little disappointed, she still tried to comfort Quan Yi.

Over the years, Huo Wu had also studied her Martial Soul and soul beasts in depth. Among them, she specifically learned about the Fire Spirit Ghost King and special soul beasts similar to it.

As a result, she discovered the undead, a special type of soul beast.

These types of soul beasts are born in dark places, absorbing the power of darkness and souls to strengthen themselves.

Therefore, wherever the undead go, death often accompanies them.

Fortunately, these evil soul beasts are usually solitary, and if they are discovered by other soul beasts, they will be attacked en masse.

Therefore, even if they appear, very few can grow to the ten-thousand-year level.

This made Huo Wu even more aware of the importance of the Fire Spirit Ghost King.

Therefore, Huo Wu didn't have too high expectations for this hunt.

However, Quan Yi's powerful search ability directly locked onto all the soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest that met the requirements.

This raised Huo Wu's expectations, but after searching hundreds of soul beasts, she still couldn't find one.

This gradually made Huo Wu put away her expectations.

Quan Yi held Huo Wu's hand tightly and said firmly, "Don't think about me. Even if there aren't any here, we can still go to Sunset Forest.

Each soul ring of a soul master is very important. We don't have to be so anxious."

"Okay, I understand. Then I'll leave it to Xiao Yi."

Hope rekindled in Huo Wu's heart.

Quan Yi steered the Red Dragon and flew towards the depths of the forest.

Soon, he arrived above the first location.

It was a 40,000-year-old Flame Lion King, a powerful soul beast with top-tier fire attribute talent.

Although its age was only 40,000 years, its extremely high talent gave it fire element fluctuations no less than those of a 50,000-year soul beast.

If combined with its powerful body, its combat power would even be no less than that of a 60,000 to 70,000-year soul beast.

However, Quan Yi's target was not it.

"Next."

Quan Yi noted the Flame Lion King's location in his heart and then flew to the next point.

The second was a Crimson Flame Eagle that had just exceeded 50,000 years.

This soul beast was extremely fast and flew at an altitude of over 5,000 meters.

Quan Yi spent some effort to catch up with it.

However, since it was flying in the unobstructed sky, Quan Yi didn't need to get close. He took a look from afar, outside the Crimson Flame Eagle's line of sight, and gave up on it.

The compatibility of this soul beast was not even as good as the Flame Lion King.

The third was a 40,000-year-old Earth Fire Dragon Lizard.

Quan Yi decisively gave up.

"Xiao Wu, now there are only two points left. However, they are a bit special. Not only are they very close, but they are both hidden deep underground.

Moreover, in my elemental perception, I can also sense numerous thousand-year-level fire element fluctuations.

In this place, we can't continue to scout in the sky. We can only land and go deep underground to determine what they are."

With his vision blocked by the ground, Quan Yi couldn't determine their entities with just his fire element perception.

"Okay, these two should be fire-attribute soul beasts living underground, and they sound like a group-living race."

While Huo Wu spoke, her expression inevitably darkened, just because the word 'group-living' did not meet her requirements.

However, Huo Wu didn't notice the smile on the corner of Quan Yi's mouth.

The Red Dragon flew towards the center of the forest, arriving at a lush depression.

Above the depression, there was even a small lake.

Quan Yi looked down and found a few black canine soul beasts scattered around the lake.

Magma Dogs, and they were all thousand-year-level soul beasts.

This type of soul beast is a canine soul beast with good strength, and its talent ability is fire.

They are originally social animals, and their attack power and speed are very good. Moreover, they are fearless. Not only can they emit high-temperature flames, but high-year Magma Dogs can also spew fireballs.

They are a very difficult soul beast to deal with.

Quan Yi didn't act rashly. He scouted for a while, and finally, he found that after replenishing water, the Magma Dogs would walk towards a cave.

This cave was concealed by vertical vines, and if it weren't for the Magma Dogs' actions, he wouldn't have easily discovered this hidden cave in the air.

Waiting until all the Magma Dogs had retreated, Quan Yi could initially determine that there was likely a Magma Dog tribe below.

"Xiao Wu, now it's up to you."

"Okay!"

The Red Dragon, suspended high in the air, began to free fall, its open wings instantly retracted, turning into a red sword, diving downwards.

Huo Wu and Quan Yi grabbed the dragon horns to resist the weightlessness of the fall.

Not only that, but the illusory Fire Shadow Martial Soul appeared behind Huo Wu.

Subsequently, four soul rings appeared behind Huo Wu, among which the deepest black soul ring lit up.

The orange-red Fire Shadow was instantly dyed into a gorgeous pink flame, and a pink peach blossom mark flashed on Huo Wu's fair forehead.

Fourth Soul Skill, Peach Shadow Ghost King Transformation.

In an instant, countless peach petals radiated from Huo Wu's body. In just an instant, the sky was filled with petals like fireworks, erupting around the Red Dragon.

The Red Dragon's figure was instantly hidden by the petals.

When the petals dissipated, the Red Dragon had actually disappeared from sight.

Not only the sight but also the terrifying pressure and soul power fluctuations emitted by the Red Dragon were hidden.

It was as if it had truly disappeared from the world.

However, this was not true concealment but the simulation ability of the soul skill.

The real Red Dragon had already landed by the lake.

Quan Yi dispersed the huge Red Dragon and walked into the cave with Huo Wu hand in hand.

The cave was extremely deep, and the passage extended diagonally downwards. Due to the angle, Quan Yi's super vision could not see the bottom.

However, with the dual senses of Quan Yi's elemental vision and True Sight Eye, Quan Yi could penetrate the thick rocks and see hundreds of canine creatures and a special individual spreading under his feet.

Quan Yi, who could see through the internal energy trajectory of objects, could determine that this was definitely not the trajectory that a normal soul beast should have.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu, hidden by the Peach Illusion Fire, quickly went deep underground.

After passing through a long, twisted passage and walking past dozens of patrolling Magma Dogs, they arrived at a spacious underground space.

The first thing that caught the eyes of the two was a ten-meter-tall humanoid figure sitting cross-legged on a giant throne in the center of the underground.

Although it was humanoid, this thing was burning with raging fire all over its body. Through the firelight, vaguely visible were dark and thick bones.
