That red figure was none other than Huo Wu.
Huo Wu's slightly cold voice echoed in the empty crater.
As her voice fell, a beam of light shot out from her palm, transforming into an intensely white laser that pierced through the energy core suppressed against its chest. Simultaneously, the laser obliquely pierced through the mountainside to the side.
At that moment, the intensely white light erupted with extreme heat and explosive force. The core, condensed with all the energy of the Undead Phoenix, was utterly defenseless against it.
This strike was a culmination of Huo Wu's enhancements, brought about by the Peach Shadow Ghost King transformation and the Silver-grade Martial Soul's secondary awakening.
It's important to know that this was an amplification stacked on the foundation of Ultimate Fire.
Although the Soul Skill's effect remained unchanged, the base power of the flame underwent a tremendous transformation.
The original flame power was one multiplied by three hundred percent, but now it became ten multiplied by three hundred percent.
The speed of instant cast and the explosive power of Ring Fusion converged, amplifying the attack power of Hellfire Shadowstrike several times.
Furthermore, the characteristics of this Soul Skill are related to the number of needles condensed.
The fewer the needles, the greater the degree of energy compression, which makes Hellfire Shadowstrike's attack power and penetration even stronger.
Originally, this Soul Skill could already pose a threat to Soul Douluo-level experts.
However, after Huo Wu transformed into an Ultimate Attribute, the attack power of Hellfire Shadowstrike directly approached that of a Titled Douluo.
Not only that, but the power of Ultimate Fire was also reflected in its control capabilities.
Huo Wu's Shadow Domain became significantly stronger under the amplification of Ultimate Fire.
Moreover, under Quan Yi's design, the entire crater transformed into a pitch-black space.
Huo Wu's light was blocked within a narrow space, greatly reducing the degree of attenuation.
Under the control of the Shadow Domain, not only was the Undead Phoenix's body completely controlled, but even its flame energy was compressed together.
Even though the Undead Phoenix Flame possessed the functions of Soul Burning and Spirit Devouring, it was unable to exert its due power under the suppression of the Ultimate Fire's radiance.
Huo Wu seized this opportunity to unleash her strongest attack into the core.
After the Undead Phoenix's core suffered a devastating blow, its consciousness began to blur.
The complete, rounded energy core began to disintegrate from the inside. The power of the Undead Phoenix's flame, like a punctured balloon, erupted outwards.
Faced with the terrifying energy eruption, Huo Wu took a step back, her entire body concealed within the intensely white light.
The energy erupted by the Undead Phoenix spread in all directions, and the fiery red light pierced through the black curtain above, rushing out of the crater.
The intensely white light also shot out, and the two mixed lights illuminated the dim sky.
Within the scope of this island, the light from the crater even overshadowed the rising sun in the east.
Fortunately, the light lasted for an extremely short time, and the sky was once again covered by the golden color of the sun.
Inside the crater, the Undead Phoenix completely extinguished its flames, and the skeleton, frozen in the sky, fell weakly onto the solidified lava.
In the open crater, only an orange-red phantom stood in the air.
In the next moment, Huo Wu's figure slowly emerged from the orange-red phantom.
However, because the position of her appearance was in mid-air, she was quickly pulled towards the ground by gravity.
Just now, Huo Wu had hidden in the Shadow Space created by Hellfire Shadowstrike, avoiding the Undead Phoenix's eruption.
The Shadow Space of Hellfire, in the absence of creatures around, cannot be moved, and can only leave the Hellfire in place alone.
This also caused Huo Wu to face the risk of falling to the ground when she walked out of the Shadow Space.
Just then, a pitch-black long rope shot out from the edge of the mountain above, wrapped around Huo Wu's waist, and pulled the falling Huo Wu to the crater.
Following the long rope upwards, its source was a shadow, and the long rope shot out from the darkness.
Just as Huo Wu was pulled up, this shadow slowly opened, dividing into black branches, revealing the two figures hidden inside.
These two were Yun Qiong and Quan Li, who had concealed their figures using the Dark Myriad Leaf Diagram.
And Huo Wu had also been hidden by Yun Qiong before, so she had not been discovered.
Now, it was Yun Qiong standing on the top of the mountain who was holding Huo Wu.
And the pitch-black long rope was her eighth soul skill, Dark Myriad Leaf Diagram.
At the same time, the 'black curtain' that had completely covered the crater before was also composed of her.
The black curtain, composed of top-quality dark attributes, perfectly blocked the light, making Huo Wu's Shadow Domain bloom with even more dazzling brilliance.
Yun Qiong pulled Huo Wu to her side and gently stroked Huo Wu's pale face with heartache.
"Little Wu, congratulations, you succeeded!"
Huo Wu supported her weak body and looked down, only to see a pitch-black halo suspended above the Sen Sen white bones.
It was at this moment that she finally showed a joyful smile.
She said, "Thank you, if it weren't for Grandma's Dark Myriad Leaf Diagram, I wouldn't have been able to do it so smoothly."
As the controller of the Shadow Domain, she could clearly feel the strengthening of her control.
The Shadow Domain is more effective at night than during the day, but its effect is even stronger under the dark space formed by the Dark Myriad Leaf Diagram.
This is already considered a remarkable Martial Soul fusion technique.
Yun Qiong smiled lightly and replied, "I'm just acting according to Little Yi's plan. Let's go, Little Yi is still waiting for us."
With that, she supported Huo Wu and jumped down from the crater. A height of about a hundred meters was no pressure for Yun Qiong, a Soul Douluo, even with one person in her arms.
Quan Li was even more so.
As soon as the three of them landed on the ground, they heard a cracking sound from the bottom of the hard rock.
They looked in the direction of the sound.
Only to see a vermilion flame emerging from the hard rock layer.
The flame quickly expanded and transformed into a human shape. When the flame dissipated, Quan Yi's brilliant smile was revealed.
"It seems that our plan has succeeded!"
Seeing this scene, one should actually know why the scalding lava quickly turned into hard rock at the beginning.
This was actually Quan Yi transforming into the Fire Spirit Body, drilling into the lava, and fully urging the Scarlet Dragon Horn's suction to absorb all the fire elemental energy in the lava.
An absolute fire-forbidden space was formed around Quan Yi, directly freezing the thick lava into a hard rock layer, blocking the Undead Phoenix outside.
This not only extinguished the fire, but also prevented the Undead Phoenix from intercepting fire energy from the volcano.
This was also the biggest basis for Quan Yi's choice to select the crater as the combat area.
At the same time, in order to concentrate all the Undead Phoenix's resentment on Huo Wu, he and Yun Qiong, Quan Li, hid in the dark, waiting for Huo Wu to successfully kill the Undead Phoenix.
Seeing Huo Wu's pale face, Quan Yi immediately rushed to her side and transmitted pure fire elemental energy to Huo Wu through the Scarlet Dragon Horn.
