At that time, he was in the Dual Realm Mountain, which was the birthplace of demons. Perhaps their grievances had nurtured a demon, and this demonic creature had taken over Su Moxuan's body and believed itself to be Su Moxuan. Demons and Celestials are inherently incompatible, so once the demon entered, Su Moxuan's body would have rapidly decayed. No amount of eating flesh would help. Otherwise, why does he exist only in soul form?
If it is truly Su Moxuan who has turned into a demon, his physical body would have remained. Only demons that transformed from humans would possess a true physical form. The demons that are naturally born within the Dual Realm Mountain are all in soul form.
The first demon incubated within the Dual Realm Mountain was the Lord of the Demon Realm, after its cycle of reincarnation. Only the Lord of the Demon Realm could possess consciousness and create the secret realm that is the Immortal Palace, enticing others to come and meet their demise, absorbing more grievances.
In order to wait for him, she allowed her descendants to suffer persecution. Despite descending from the Celestial Race, they ended up in the mortal realm with the lowest spiritual energy among the three thousand realms.
It's time for her dream to end.
"Moxuan, I don't like embracing the body of my descendant," she whispers softly.
The soul of ‘Su Moxuan’ once again separates from the body, and his figure appears before her. With a flick of his finger, Ning Yuan regains his human form, but he is covered in wounds and his breath is weak and feeble.
"Then should I go into his body?" Su Moxuan asks.
But suddenly, a flame soars up and directly envelopes his soul. The big red lantern traps him inside, and within the lantern, a small piece of the Kunlun Divine Tree quickly catches fire. Su Moxuan is greatly astonished. "Yun-niang, you!"
Yun-niang, has already used the power of her divine consciousness to make the Heavenly Fire burn stronger. She is now burning her own remnant soul!
Su Tingyun quickly pats Big Bai and instructs it to throw out the remaining branches of the Divine Tree and add more fuel to the fire. Su Moxuan roars in anger, causing the entire Immortal Palace to tremble. His black energy surges and envelopes Yun-niang's remnant soul, intending to devour it completely. However, within the lantern, he touches a fragment of Yun-niang’s remnant soul.
He’s touching her, not through someone else's body, but he actually feels her.
"Moxuan, I’ve been waiting for you," she whispers softly.
The demon Su Moxuan suddenly stops struggling. He actually doesn’t know what love or hate is. His only desire is to return home, to be by Yun-niang's side. And now, he has achieved that goal, hasn't he?
The Heavenly Fire incinerates everything, and in the final moments, Su Tingyun hears the woman's voice again. "You have no physical body; you don't belong in the Three Thousand Realms. You are beyond the Heavenly Order, not bound by its rules. This ring is forged from the bones of the Celestial Race, it is a world of its own. As long as you can gather the suitable materials, you can use my divine bones to reshape your flesh."
"Others cannot create life, but you can."
"Su Lijiang, farewell." These words come out of Su Tingyun's mouth, leaving Su Lijiang in a dazed state. He’s been in a daze all this time, not returning to his senses.
The flames burn away all the filth, and the ring descends, directly flying into Su Tingyun's Dantian and Sea of Consciousness. With a single thought, the ring appears on her finger.
This time, she has truly become its master.
The destruction of the demon Su Moxuan causes the entire Immortal Palace to warp and collapse. At this moment, countless branches of the Kunlun Divine Tree suddenly appear, enveloping them all within the branches.
As soon as the enchantment of the Immortal Palace has disappeared, Su Lijiang calls upon the Heart of the Divine Tree. With the Palace crumbling, only the Heart of the Divine Tree could save them fast.
In a distant corner, a disheveled Zhang Zhizi suddenly stops in his tracks. A dark aura bursts out from him as he smirks ominously. "The trash that was competing with me for food and nourishment, it's dead."
Just moments ago, the Heavenly Fire on the painting that hadn’t fully extinguished, it finally went out. Bai Lu appears much more at ease, drifting out of the painting. She reaches out her arms and embraces Zhang Zhizi's shoulders, exhaling gently. "Congratulations, young master."
She informed Zhang Zhizi that he had one competition in this world, as they both fed on the darkness and resentment between heaven and earth. On this occation, she was also the one who urged him to go to the Immortal Palace because she sensed that the demon was here.
However, the Dual Realm Mountain has only ever chosen a single being, and the owner of the Beauty Scroll is the destined one. The existence of that demon was an accident, and now that it is dead, everything is perfect.
With one less contender for the demonic power, the young master's strength will grow rapidly, and her own power will multiply. The awakening of the seven sisters will also be greatly accelerated. Now, in this corrupt world, their power is abundant.
The future is truly something to look forward to.
"The Immortal Palace is collapsing. Let's leave here first," she says, lifting Zhang Zhizi with the scroll. Sensing his anger and resentment, Bai Lu gently rubs against him with her body. "Master, don't worry. That little girl has already stepped into the painting halfway. Wherever she may be in the future, we can easily find her. She cannot escape the grasp of your palm, master."
Satisfied, Zhang Zhizi nods. The painting rolls up, swiftly carrying him away from the crumbling Immortal Palace.

God damn it, I saw the foreshadowing of the beauty scroll, but it's still annoying that it actually became a problem.
