Build a huge reservoir with multiple outlets. A dwarven magma cannon might be a good place to start.

Specifically, pressurizing it-which you need pumps to do. Here's a suggestion

Yes, that's exactly what you're meant to do. Particularly because pumping it strains the chunks out.

Elves do it in trees. Humans do it in wooden structures. Dwarves? Dwarves do it underground. With magma.

You have to create an adequate reservoir to do what you want.  If destroying the world was easy, everyone would do it.
