The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King's tone was extremely self-important.
However, if one carefully examined its eyes, they could discover the absolute confidence hidden beneath the disdain.
Quan Yi was no stranger to this confidence.
From their first meeting, Quan Yi had observed a sense of composure, as if it possessed some kind of trump card.
Even now, this feeling hadn't changed in the slightest.
Curious about this, Quan Yi couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that Your Excellency has some hidden ace up your sleeve?"
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King smiled calmly and replied, "It seems your Dragon Eyes aren't omnipotent after all.
Quan Yi, don't rely too much on your eyes; sometimes, danger lurks in places you cannot see."
"Places I cannot see?"
Quan Yi lowered his head and pondered, thinking rapidly.
When his Dragon Eyes pierced through the lake and looked towards the bottom, Quan Yi revealed a look of sudden realization.
At that very moment, a chill flashed through Quan Yi's heart, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
"Could it be that this volcano is Your Excellency's confidence?"
Quan Yi looked at the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King in shock.
If the Crimson Dragon Eyes couldn't see something, besides things that exceeded their scouting limit, it could only be something hidden deep underground.
The thick earth greatly reduced Quan Yi's power of perception.
Compared to the surface, the penetration distance of the perspective vision had a difference of more than a hundred times.
Moreover, as one went deeper, the density of the earth would become greater, and the penetrating power of the perspective vision would become increasingly difficult to sink.
However, this problem hardly ever troubled Quan Yi, because it was almost impossible for living beings to exist in such a deep underground.
Therefore, Quan Yi rarely guarded against the underground; the sense of security that the thick earth brought him made him subconsciously ignore it.
However, the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King harshly sounded the alarm for Quan Yi.
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King was also surprised by Quan Yi's quick thinking and reaction speed.
It nodded slightly and said, "Quan Yi, you are very perceptive.
That's right, this volcano is my greatest reliance.
Although this volcano has already entered a dormant period, it still stores immense energy deep within.
And I can use some means to guide out this power of heaven and earth."
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King's confirmation caused everyone present to break out in cold sweat and their minds to shake.
Volcanic eruption!
This was almost the most destructive of all natural disasters.
Although volcanic eruptions had different levels, the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history was the eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815.
According to analysis, the energy released by this volcanic eruption was equivalent to 62,000 times that of the Little Boy atomic bomb.
Moreover, in this volcanic eruption, the giant mountain as high as 4,100 meters was drastically reduced to 2,800 meters.
What kind of power was that?
Although the size of the volcano where the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King was located was not that large.
However, once it truly erupted, Quan Yi, and even Huo Wu, Quan Li, and Yun Qiong, who were located tens of thousands of meters in the air, would hardly escape death.
"Since Your Excellency has such powerful means, why not use it to negotiate with me?"
If Quan Yi had known that the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King had such means, he would never have adopted the attitude he had before.
No, perhaps, from the very beginning, he wouldn't have ventured rashly to this place.
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King was very pleased with Quan Yi's change in attitude at this moment; it hadn't said anything about its defeat in the previous battle, but it was still a little unhappy.
It restrained the secret joy in its heart and replied with a calm face, "Volcanic eruptions are not a joke; if not handled well, they will cause both sides to suffer losses.
This method can only be used when it comes to a true life-or-death crisis."
Quan Yi relaxed a little after hearing the explanation.
However, his whole body had already been frightened into a cold sweat.
Now, looking at the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King was like facing a thick volcano; even if it appeared very calm on the outside, its interior seemed to contain unfathomable and majestic power.
"I apologize for my previous offenses, senior! I hope senior will forgive me!"
Quan Yi solemnly apologized to the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King with the etiquette of a junior.
"Haha, so you brat also has such a side to you; interesting."
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King seemed to have a better understanding of Quan Yi.
"Alright, I accept your apology; let's consider this matter settled. Now, let us discuss the Soul Ring Spirit Plan."
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King displayed extraordinary magnanimity; its rationality and sense of responsibility highlighted its unique temperament as a king.
Quan Yi's inner respect became even greater.
He said seriously with respect, "First of all, before the formal discussion, I would like to ask senior to observe the real thing first."
Quan Yi glanced at Huo Wu; Huo Wu understood and directly activated her martial soul and soul rings.
Six dazzling soul rings floated under Huo Wu's feet, and an orange-red phantom swayed behind her.
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King's gaze towards Huo Wu also changed suddenly at this moment.
The aura of Ultimate Fire, and that unbelievable crimson sixth soul ring.
A hundred-thousand-year sixth soul ring; although it had little contact with humans, it also knew that this was definitely not something that a mere Soul Emperor-level soul master could possess.
When it fixed its eyes on the hundred-thousand-year soul ring, it actually felt a special aura belonging to soul beasts from it.
"This is the soul ring with life; unbelievable, there is actually a soul beast's soul residing in the soul ring, and it even possesses such a clear consciousness."
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King had extraordinary eyesight; it examined it while clicking its tongue in wonder.
At this moment, in Huo Wu's sea of consciousness, the joyful cry of Wutong sounded.
Through spiritual communication, Huo Wu immediately understood Wutong's intentions.
She looked at the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King in surprise and asked, "Senior, have you had contact with Wutong before?
Why does Wutong show such a joyful emotion when he sees senior?"
As soon as this was said, the other three also looked at the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King with deep surprise.
"Hehe, this little guy can also be considered an old acquaintance; I didn't expect that a wisp of remnant soul that has been purified can still remember me."
The Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King then explained to everyone its encounter with Wutong, no, the Undead Phoenix.
Tens of thousands of years ago, an Undead Phoenix was born among the volcanic islands.
At that time, the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King had already become the strongest king in the volcanic islands.
It was also the first to discover the birth of the Undead Phoenix.
Logically, undead creatures posed a great threat to all living beings.
Therefore, at the moment of encountering it, it should have been uprooted to prevent it from growing smoothly.
However, the Sea Serpent Flame Dragon King at that time had a different idea when looking at the Undead Phoenix.
