This kind of knife technique is already on a different level from any knife technique known to Xu Taiping.
And the remaining body of the Demon God at the bottom of the Blood Pool clearly also felt the death threat brought by the long knife in Fairy Lingyue’s hand. Immediately, it released all the demonic energy in its body, and its figure turned into a half-human, half-crocodile appearance. Then it pulled out a long spear from the bottom of the Blood Pool and violently threw it towards Fairy Lingyue.
”Boom！”
Amid the ear-piercing sound of breaking through the air, Xu Taiping also felt the same annihilation energy on the long spear thrown by the remaining body of the Demon God as that in Fairy Lingyue’s long knife.
However, the energy in Fairy Lingyue’s long knife was even more powerful.
”Zheng！”
Amid the sound of the knife chirping, Fairy Lingyue split the long spear with one strike, and at the same time, she also split the remaining body of the Demon God with a human head and a snake body below.
”Boom！…”
The moment it was split by Fairy Lingyue’s knife, both the long spear and the monster transformed by the remaining body of the Demon God were annihilated into flying ash in the blink of an eye.
Only the remaining body of the Demon God, after being annihilated into ashes, a vermilion tooth like amber fell out from it.
At the same time, on this tooth, a destructive energy that made people feel extremely palpitating began to spread.
This aura of destruction was a thousand times stronger than that of the awakened demonic god’s remnant body. Just looking at it once felt as if one was being cut to pieces by a thousand knives.
”Is this the true body of that demonic god’s remnant？”
Xu Taiping endured the stabbing pain in his divine soul and asked Fairy Lingyue.
”That’s right. I just didn’t expect that after a million years, there would still be a tooth of the true body of this demonic god that couldn’t be destroyed.”
Fairy Lingyue nodded.
”The body of a demonic god, especially an ancient demonic god, is even harder than the core of every world. Even the Flame Emperor couldn’t completely destroy it. That’s why he set up this great array and wanted to use the Jade Bone Grass to wear it away little by little.”
She then explained further.
Xu Taiping nodded upon hearing this.
”Rumble！”
Just then, the entire underground cave suddenly trembled.
Immediately after, golden threads of light bound the true body of the demonic god’s remnant, which had already gathered a blood ball of seven or eight feet in size, and slowly dragged it to the bottom of the blood pool full of corpses.
Immediately after, the remaining Jade Bone Grass in the underground cave, as well as the Jade Bone Grass that made up the armor on Xu Taiping’s body, began to turn into silver threads and fly towards the blood ball, wrapping it little by little.
Every time the resurrected remnant of the demon is killed. the jade bone grass in this crypt will use the remaining power to completely seal it.”
“And under the collision and consumption of these two forces, everything in this crypt will be annihilated, and this process will last for ten years or even longer.”
“When everything calms down, a blood pool will appear again in this crypt, and the jade bone grass surrounding the blood pool and covering the entire crypt.”
Repeating in cycles until the power of the body of the demon is completely exhausted.
The Fairy Lingyue looked at everything happening below and explained to Xu Taiping in a murmur.
“Isn’t this too cruel for those remnant souls that have turned into jade bone grass？”
Xu Taiping asked with a frown.
In his opinion, these remnant souls seemed to be just weapons for the Flame Emperor to completely destroy the demon’s body.
The Fairy Lingyue shook her head upon hearing this and then explained：
Most of the remnant souls behind these jade bone grass were killed by this demon. and their souls that were taken away were also sealed in the body of this demon.
So every time the true body of the demon is defeated they will reclaim a part of their souls from its hands. When the true body of this demon is completely destroyed, all the souls behind these jade bone grass will regain their freedom and have the opportunity to be reincarnated as humans again.”
“And this is another reason why the Flame Emperor set up this great array.”
Upon hearing this, a hint of shame appeared on Xu Taiping’s face.
“I judged the gentleman with the heart of a villain.”
He smiled awkwardly and said.
“The Flame Emperor was the leader of the Three Sovereigns of the ancient human race, and also the kindest and most lenient among the Three Sovereigns. He was also the only one who, during his reign, dared to face the nine abysses head-on and killed the demons in the abysses so that they did not dare to invade the human race for millions of years.”
When Fairy Lingyue said this, there was a thick sense of awe in her tone.
“Unfortunately, after the Flame Emperor ascended to become a god, the human race no longer had the power to fight against the nine abysses. Now it has completely declined and has no power to fight against the nine abysses.”
She then sighed again and said.
“The demon race is so powerful. Why is it that in our world, we rarely sense their existence？”
Xu Taiping was a little confused.
According to Fairy Lingyue’s statement, since the demon race is so powerful, there should have been wars starting from the west in our world long ago.
“This is because in your Upper Clear Realm, there are several deities left behind by the ascended gods to protect. With them protecting the Upper Clear Realm, the claws of the nine abysses cannot easily reach in.”
Fairy Lingyue murmured.
“Deities？”
Xu Taiping heard another existence from Fairy Lingyue’s mouth that was not even mentioned in the sect’s scriptures.
Fairy Lingyue just nodded, but did not mean to continue explaining.
Xu Taiping immediately understood that this should have touched on some kind of taboo again, making it impossible for Fairy Lingyue to tell him, so he didn’t ask further.
“However, calculating the time, these gods should not be able to hold on for too long. It will be at most a few decades, or at least a few hundred years, and their protection of the Shangqing Realm will also come to an end.”
Fairy Lingyue, who had re-manifested her spirit body, looked at Xu Taiping with a worried expression and then said very seriously：
“Before that, Taiping, you have to do everything possible to break through to the God Refining Realm and enter the ranks of Huajing cultivators. Only in this way can there be a glimmer of hope for self-protection.”
“I will do my best.”
Xu Taiping smiled bitterly.
He didn’t even have the Tongxuan Realm now, and he didn’t know when he would be able to break through to the God Refining Realm.
“Rumble！ ……”
Just at this moment, the cave trembled suddenly. Except for the sacrificial platform, the rest of the place was cracking and collapsing.
“This cave is going to self-destruct. You and I have to get out quickly.”
Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping.
