This skeleton was precisely Huo Wu.
At this moment, the extent of Huo Wu's body's damage was even more severe than yesterday.
Her brain, limbs, and all bones except for the soul bone were incinerated.

However, the Fire Shadow beneath the water still maintained a distinct human form. Even the originally blurred shadow transformed into a solid, opaque, orange-red light figure at this moment.
The light figure was in an inverted, seated posture, quietly sitting at the boundary between the water surface and the air.
The incineration of her body, especially her entire brain, allowed Huo Wu to enter the Fire Shadow's interior once again, establishing an even deeper connection with it.
At this moment, Huo Wu felt as if she were in a wondrous space filled with fire and shadows.
This space gave her an extremely vast feeling, but upon extending her mental power, she discovered that it had boundaries and that its general shape resembled a human form.
Huo Wu knew that she was within the Fire Shadow's internal world, or rather, that she had become the true Fire Shadow.
Within this space, Huo Wu lost all human senses except for mental perception.
Even the breathing that humans took for granted was meaningless here.
However, in exchange, Huo Wu's senses for certain special energies were amplified infinitely.
That was the perception of fire elements and light shadows.
When she attempted to communicate with the surrounding fire elements through her mental power, they would rush to Huo Wu's location without hesitation.
Elemental resonance.
Huo Wu didn't expend much mental power before forming a fire elemental storm around the Fire Shadow.
The calm Yang Spring formed a massive vortex centered around the torso bone.
If the Fire Shadow weren't located at the bottom of the spring, Huo Wu's unintentional act might have been engulfed by the firestorm.
Huo Wu was also startled by the sudden surge of the flame vortex, but at the same time, she discovered that the originally unruly Extreme Heat Yuan Power appeared extremely affectionate in front of the Fire Shadow.
This affinity was worlds apart from the true body state of the Fire Shadow.
This also allowed Huo Wu to further understand the constraints and obstacles of her true body.
"In this state, perhaps I can truly be called the Flame Queen."
"Even the energy of the Yang Spring must completely submit before the 'me' in this state."
"If I can cultivate in this state, my absorption of Yuan Power will definitely far surpass cultivation in my true body state."
Thinking this, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Huo Wu's mind.
"That's right, the Fire Shadow is also my clone, why can't I try to absorb the surrounding energy?"
The chest of the calm orange-red figure outside began to rise and fall slowly, as if breathing and meditating beneath the water surface.
Moreover, with the rise and fall of the chest, the vermilion energy of the Yang Spring was drawn into the orange-red light figure and flowed through the body along a wondrous path.
Finally, after one cycle of circulation, the vermilion energy quickly transformed into an orange-red luster, enhancing the brightness and condensation of the orange-red light.
This figure was precisely the current residence of Huo Wu's soul.
At this moment, Huo Wu was controlling the Fire Shadow, imitating the meridian flow of her true body, and cultivating.
A large amount of Extreme Fire inside the Fire Shadow came into contact with the fire elements outside. In the process of continuous contact, it would quickly transform into the Fire Shadow's own energy.
Huo Wu could feel the power of flame within her 'body' expanding rapidly, and this transformation speed was dozens of times faster than in her true body state.
The enhancement of the power of flame gradually enlarged the internal space, and it was enlarged by double the volume.
This was because the enhancement of the power of flame would naturally drive the change of the Shadow Power.
Shadow Power was another powerful force hidden within the Fire Shadow.
As mentioned earlier, besides the fire element, Huo Wu's perception of light and shadow was also enhanced.
Although Huo Wu was within a humanoid 'framework', she found that her consciousness could break out of the framework and extend to very far places.
Crowds, animals, buildings, everything tangible in the world, as long as they had residual shadows, could not escape Huo Wu's perception.
This feeling was similar to Huo Wu entering the Shadow Space and sensing the shadows within a distant range through the connection between shadows.
The only difference was that Huo Wu was not emitting her own firelight or activating her Martial Soul at this moment.
However, she felt that she could travel there, integrate into it, and even change the existence itself through the shadows.
This was not her illusion, because the immense Shadow Power within her was like her hand, giving her the ability to 'touch' and 'change'.
Nothingness and existence.
This special boundary had completely ceased to exist in Huo Wu's eyes.
"Is this the true power hidden within the Fire Shadow?"
Huo Wu saw the world in the Fire Shadow's eyes through the Fire Shadow's 'vision'.
In the past, Huo Wu's unconscious use of the Shadow Space and Shadow Domain manipulation of Purgatory Instant Shadow Kill were simple applications of her Martial Soul abilities.
But now, Huo Wu truly touched the origin of the ability.
This was a terrifying ability that was no less powerful than Extreme Fire, and Huo Wu was undoubtedly very delighted.
She was very eager to completely master this ability.
Complete mastery meant entering this space on her own without completely incinerating her body, and completely mastering the original power of the Martial Soul.
While maintaining the meridian circulation, Huo Wu cast her consciousness into her interior.
She knew that the real core was inside, but previously, she had no experience and had not realized that she should look for it.
This time, she planned to use this opportunity to search carefully and strive to control the Fire Shadow.
In this void space, Huo Wu's mental power quickly swept through every corner.
Although the internal space was extremely wide, Huo Wu's mental power could cover an even larger area.
However, even so, she didn't find anything.
Huo Wu pondered for a moment and realized that perhaps the soul bone left outside prevented her from completely integrating into the Fire Shadow.
She glanced at the strong Phoenix bloodline and soul bone that were repeatedly destroyed and regenerated in the Yang Spring, and were constantly purified in the process, and she made a choice.
Huo Wu immediately manipulated the soul bone, spraying golden Phoenix flames, and propelling the bone to dive towards the bottom of the water.
This soul bone, whose strength exceeded 300,000 years, was exceptionally sturdy even in the Yang Spring.
However, without fire immunity, even a fire-attribute soul bone had a limit to the temperature it could withstand.
Ignoring the water pressure, Huo Wu rapidly advanced nearly a thousand meters downwards.
In this process, the torso bone, which was of a slightly lower age, began to melt from the fragile bones.
Moreover, the extent of the bone's damage increased with each thousand meters crossed.
At a depth of five thousand meters, the torso bone was completely incinerated, and only a remnant of the Phoenix bone wings remained.
Looking at the bottomless spring water, Huo Wu realized that she was too far away from Quan Yi, even after abandoning her physical body and barely reaching five thousand meters with the help of the soul bone.
"Wait for me!"
The last wisp of bone residue also completely disappeared, and only a bright orange-red figure remained in the vermilion spring water.
