Quan Yi gathered everyone together.
“For this hunting mission, I want Huowu to face the Undead Phoenix alone.”
“No! It's too dangerous!”
Quan Yi had barely finished speaking when Quan Li, in an extremely stern tone, rejected his proposal.
With the smile gone from his face, Quan Li exuded an imposing aura.
However, Quan Yi withstood this pressure, standing firmly in front of Quan Li, his eyes not flinching, but calmly meeting Quan Li's gaze.
The confrontation between the two caused the atmosphere to plummet to freezing point.
Seeing this scene, Huowu felt both regret and gratitude.
Quan Yi's actions clearly meant that he was taking all the blame upon himself.
Huowu immediately wanted to explain, but she saw Quan Yi stop her with a look.
Then, Quan Yi said, “I know Grandpa is worried about Xiaowu's safety, but in this regard, I'm even more worried than Grandpa.
Secondly, I have enough understanding of Xiaowu's strength, and I know she has the power to hunt the Undead Phoenix.
Finally, although it is said that Huowu will face it alone, it doesn't mean we can't help Xiaowu.
I have corresponding countermeasures.”
Quan Yi resisted Quan Li's pressure and argued earnestly.
If it were a normal soul beast, he would never refute it like this; on the contrary, he would actively support it.
Personally hunting the soul beast required for a soul ring is a trial and an exercise.
Knowledgeable soul masters would not object, but if the difference between them is too great, it is not an exercise, but suicide.
Quan Li didn't know much about Huowu, so in his subconscious mind, Huowu was an object to be protected.
However, Quan Yi's explanation made him realize this.
At this time, Yun Qiong interjected from the side: “Alright, Xiaoyi is not an impulsive person. Why not listen to Quan Yi's suggestion first, and then decide whether to agree.”
Quan Li sighed helplessly, and the aura he had gathered dissipated with the wind.
“Speak.”
Quan Yi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then he began to talk about his thoughts.
“The most troublesome part of this target is that it is a flying soul beast.
Its speed is astonishing, and Huowu has no chance of winning in an open field.
Moreover, according to my observation, the mental strength of this Undead Phoenix has reached the level of a hundred thousand years, so Xiaowu's Peach Illusion Flame cannot have an absolute effect on it.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to choose a suitable battlefield for Huowu.
And the place I chose is there.”
As he spoke, Quan Yi pointed his finger at the direction of the volcano.
The volcano has a bowl-like shape that collapses downward. Among all the open terrains, that is indeed the narrowest place.
However, at the same time, that is also a place where endless magma churns.
The steep mountain walls have no flat foothold at all.
Not only that, the environment full of magma can greatly enhance the strength of the Undead Phoenix.
Therefore, everyone subconsciously designated the volcano as an object to stay away from.
“This…”
Quan Li looked at the volcano with a grim face, just as countless words were about to burst out of his mouth.
A thought flashed through Quan Li's mind.
This made him swallow the words that had reached his lips.
“Are you sure?” Quan Li looked at Quan Yi meaningfully.
Quan Yi nodded confidently.
Then, he revealed his plan in its entirety.

After listening to Quan Yi's plan, a smile bloomed on Quan Li's face again.
“Since it can still be like this, Xiaoyi, let's follow your plan.”
After listening to Quan Yi's detailed plan, everyone, including Quan Li, was filled with confidence.
Especially Huowu, who was originally prepared to fight the Undead Phoenix hard, but now, it seems that there is no need for that.
“Okay, now that everyone agrees, let's get ready. We must prepare before the Undead Phoenix returns from foraging.”
Immediately, Quan Yi drove the Red Dragon to descend towards the volcano.
On the other side, the Undead Phoenix had already flown away from the islands and arrived at the vast sea.
On the dark sea, a flash of fiery red light sped past.
The phoenix's flames are noble and magnificent. Even as an undead, it perfectly inherited this point.
The Undead Phoenix's flying movements are different from those of other birds.
When it flies, it rarely flaps its wings, and basically maintains the same posture.
This is because its wings have no feathers.
It can only perform flexible flight by ejecting flames and adjusting the direction of its bone wings.
Because it reduces redundant movements during flight and has no burden of flesh and blood, the Undead Phoenix's flight speed is faster than before it was alive.
After flying hundreds of miles in the high sky, it adjusted the direction of its bone wings and fell towards the sea.
However, as the altitude decreased, the firelight on its body continued to weaken.
The firelight penetrated the water surface and shot into the bottom of the sea. This peculiar firelight, mixed with mental fluctuations, caused the fish at the bottom of the sea to swim frantically towards the surface.
The Undead Phoenix hovered on the sea, but it was like a large lamp, attracting sea fish to approach it.
However, before the sea fish could surface, they suddenly stopped moving and floated directly on the surface.
In the area illuminated by the firelight, patches of sea fish floated on the sea, emitting a strong fishy smell.
These sea fish were already dead.
And from the corpses of the sea fish, specks of red light emerged.
A loud phoenix cry sounded, and countless red lights were absorbed by it.
These red lights are the fire of the spirit ignited by the Undead Phoenix. That's right, the flames of the Undead Phoenix can burn the mental power and soul power of living beings.
After igniting the souls of living beings, absorbing them into the body can draw the power of fire and mental power from them.
This is the special feeding method of the Undead Phoenix.
Under the illumination of the firelight, countless sea fish rushed towards the noble and sacred phoenix flames one after another.
In just a quarter of an hour, hundreds of thousands of sea fish lost their vitality.
The sea area where the Undead Phoenix was located had completely lost its breath of life.
After a full meal, the Undead Phoenix directly threw countless sea fish corpses down and flew into the high sky.
Several hours passed, and the corpses of the sea fish drifted with the wind and current, attracting the attention of countless carnivores.
Among them, there were many large fish soul beast groups, with hundred-year and thousand-year soul beasts everywhere, and no shortage of ten-thousand-year level soul beasts.
They were attracted by the fishy smell, poured into the dead fish group, and frantically competed for the delicious food.
When the number of soul beasts approached five thousand, a noble firelight descended from the sky.
Accompanied by the phoenix's high-pitched cry, a scorching pillar of fire shot straight into the sea and spread around.
The noble phoenix flame is not for appreciation. At this moment, it showed its terrifying side.
The flames spread rapidly, and countless sea soul beasts let out piercing screams the moment they touched the flames.
Once contaminated with this flame, it would not only cause physical burns, but also directly damage the spirit.
