Zi Linling's hands moved rapidly, her lips also wiggling quickly.
After a few breaths, the chaotic seal, formed by the fusion of the Demon Suppression Seal and the Demon Sealing Art, hovered above the Nine Extremes Qiankun Cauldron, drawn by a drop of chaotic blood forced out by Zi Linling.
"Nine Extremes, release her!"
Having followed Zi Linling for so long, the Nine Extremes Qiankun Cauldron naturally recognized the true chaotic seal.
Of course, he was also very aware of the chaotic seal's power. The chaotic seal that could easily seal an Ancestral Demon would have no problem sealing a mere ancient blood demon.
Therefore, Nine Extremes readily responded with an "Okay" and opened the cauldron lid.
Seeing this, the ancient blood demon's heart filled with joy, and it surged out of the Nine Extremes Qiankun Cauldron.
At the same time, it thought to itself, "Once this demon escapes this broken cauldron, I will kill all of you!"
However, the ancient blood demon's dream was destined to be shattered.
It had no idea how terrifying Zi Linling's chaotic seal truly was.
What is joy turning to sorrow? This is it.
The pitiful ancient blood demon, charging out with ferocity, instead crashed headlong into the chaotic seal specifically designed to restrain demons.
Its grand "ambitions" were shattered into dust under the chaotic seal.
With a thought from Zi Linling, the chaotic seal accurately enveloped the ancient blood demon.
She looked at the ancient blood demon with a stern face and said, "Ancient blood demon, considering you are the last trace left in the human world by your great-grandmother, I will not kill you today, but I will not allow you to continue harming others."
"Therefore, I will now seal you with the chaotic seal. When your malevolence is purged, you will regain your freedom!"
As Zi Linling finished speaking, the chaotic seal compressed continuously. In an instant, the five drops of blood merged into one, becoming a blood-red luminous pearl.
"Let me out! Let me out!"
The ancient blood demon incessantly slammed against the chaotic seal, letting out roars of fury.
Zi Linling rebuked, "Enough! Be quiet! If not for my great-grandmother's sake, I would erase you right now!"
The ancient blood demon finally grasped the key point in Zi Linling's words.
It asked in confusion, "Great-grandmother? Who is your great-grandmother?"
Zi Linling smiled coldly and said, "Who do you think? Of course, it's your original master, Jiao Ling!"
The ancient blood demon was so shocked that it couldn't react for a long time.
After a long pause, it said in disbelief, "Impossible! Impossible! Master has no descendants!"
Zi Linling said with a cold face, "No descendants? After my great-grandmother died in battle, my ancestor Feng Liqi took a merman egg from her womb. After a long period of nurturing, my maternal grandmother, Yue Hua, was born."
"You hadn't awakened your sentience back then, so how could you possibly know about this?"
"My great-grandmother was born with demonic energy invading her body. Yet, instead of falling into depravity, she used her own life to suppress an extraterrestrial demonic entity."
"But you, as the last drop of her blood left in this world, after awakening your sentience, have continuously harmed the beings she protected with her life!"
"Today, you met me. I should have completely annihilated you, leaving no trace. But for my great-grandmother's sake, I will spare your life!"
"From now on, you will stay by my side and repent!"
Zi Linling said, then beckoned gently, and the blood-red luminous pearl, sealing the ancient blood demon, fell into her palm.
The ancient blood demon finally regained its senses and quickly said, "Wait! Since you are Jiao Ling's great-granddaughter, you cannot seal me!"
Zi Linling's expression darkened. "Not seal you? Should I just stand by and watch you harm people?"
The ancient blood demon angrily retorted, "Those people deserve to die! Master sacrificed her life to ensure their peaceful lives, but who remembers their master's kindness?"
"They are deceitful and scheme against each other, turning a perfectly good Azure Star into a mess, betraying their master's painstaking efforts!"
"Master sacrificed the entire merman race for the harmony of the Azure Star, yet they squander it like this?"
"Do these selfish people not deserve to die? Do these ungrateful people not deserve to die?"
Xuan Yuanxun, Rong Guang, Shangguan Yulin, and Shen Liuxing were all rendered speechless by the ancient blood demon's hysterical questioning.
They too felt ashamed, for they had also been among the kind of people the ancient blood demon spoke of.
Zi Linling's beautiful eyes shimmered with light.
Human nature was like this: complacent in peace and unaware of danger, skilled in internal strife.
However, that did not mean the entire human race should be exterminated because of it.
Moreover, there were wise individuals among humans, and those who cared for the world, so Zi Linling did not agree with the ancient blood demon's words.
She sighed and said, "Mutual conflict is indeed human nature, but it is not a reason for you to kill innocent people indiscriminately."
"My great-grandmother once paid the price of her life, not just so that various races could continue to exist? By indiscriminately killing like this, are you not violating your great-grandmother's original intention?"
"You were born with resentment, so the moment you awakened your sentience, you were influenced by negative emotions and misunderstood your great-grandmother's true intentions."
"Back then, since my great-grandmother was willing to sacrifice her life for the beings of the Azure Star, it meant that the beings of the Azure Star were worth doing so for!"
"Worth it, not because of any one person, nor any aspect of any one person, but because all lives are worthy of respect!"
"Ancient blood demon, when you understand the four words 'life is worthy,' you will truly comprehend your great-grandmother's sacrifice!"
"Alright! I will now send you to a place where you can meditate well!"
Zi Linling finished speaking and threw the blood-red luminous pearl into the center of the desert in the embryonic world.
At the same time, with a thought, a sand city was placed on top of it.
However, the ancient blood demon's arrogant voice echoed in her mind.
"Hmph! You've only sealed a wisp of my avatar! As long as this Chiyuan Blood Domain exists, I can manifest countless avatars. Let's see how many you can seal!"
After saying that, it fell silent and stopped struggling.
It was just an avatar, at most it would kill more beings and regenerate.
Zi Linling's eyes turned cold and she said, "Since this Chiyuan Blood Domain is your reliance, then I will take it along with you!"
The ancient blood demon snorted coldly, "Arrogant! This Chiyuan Blood Domain spans nine thousand miles, I see how you intend to take it!"
Zi Linling raised an eyebrow and said, "You don't need to worry about that! Soon, I will reunite your main body with this avatar!"
The ancient blood demon, unconvinced, said, "So young, aren't you afraid of your tongue getting caught in the wind! Very well, I will wait and see you humiliate yourself!"
Zi Linling said confidently, "Then watch!"
