WHOOSH!
No one answered the Shadow Demon. Suddenly, a golden beam of light shot out from the vortex. In the blink of an eye, the beam penetrated layer after layer of seals as easily as poking through sheets of window paper.
The beam cut through the dense black mist, directly striking the Shadow Demon within.
"No!"
A scream tore from its mouth as its body was pierced by a large hole. Wherever the golden light touched, the Shadow Demon's body disintegrated inch by inch, evaporated, and vanished into nothingness.
In an instant, the Shadow Demon was utterly slain, without a shred of doubt.
「At that moment, in the outside world,」
Xu Ruoyan's body was on the verge of plummeting off the cliff and smashing onto the ground below.
Just then, a golden sphere of light suddenly surged forth, enveloping her body. It enclosed Xu Ruoyan like a bubble and, in a bizarre manner, hovered motionlessly in mid-air. Though only a breath away from falling, she never touched the ground.
