As Grandma Taizhen's straightforward words fell, a Divine Light instantly burst from within the Haotian Divine Mirror.
Initially, it was only fist-sized.
But in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a vast, magnificent blue light, erupting and penetrating through all obstacles along its path.
In no time, it broke through the wall of the Longevity Realm and reached the Outer Realm, directly crashing into a secret place.
With the blue light shining, everyone happened to see the "Evil Spirit Strange Object" that had half its body protruding from the secret realm.
The creature seemed human but not human, insect-like but not an insect.
At least a million of them covered the demon body, making one shiver and feel their heart and courage shattered.
At this moment!
Everyone knew exactly how this demon, the "Red Teeth Star Lord," came to get its title.
As everyone saw him, he naturally also saw the scene within Penglai Sea, and saw the Haotian Divine Light shooting toward him.
Faced with a life-and-death crisis, he instantly let out a sharp scream.
Blood patterns flooded the sky; meanwhile, the surrounding red teeth fell off and tore through the Void, attempting to aid his body in escaping.
But unfortunately, how could he possibly escape in time?
With Grandma Taizhen's profound power, once she took action, she was never going to give the so-called Red Teeth Star Lord a chance to escape.
Indeed, in the next instant, all his struggles went in vain.
The Haotian Divine Light swiftly pierced through, completely freezing the secret realm, and everything inside silently began to crumble and break.
"Though the Red Teeth Star Lord is a Star Spirit Strange Object, combined with the descendant of Ancestor Dragon."
"Despite old wounds, his combat power should rival the Half-step Daoist Transformation Realm without any issue, yet such a formidable demon was slain by a single Divine Light?"
"Legend has it that [Haotian Divine Mirror], the treasure guarding Mount Jade Ring, came from the Outer Realm as a supreme treasure previously wielded by an Innate Divine Spirit, unmatched in power, capable of killing gods and demons... Previously thought to be exaggerated rumors, now it seems clearly understated; this treasure's Divine Light can kill star demons from the Outer Realm—how terrifying!"
"With such profound roots, Tao Master and Fairy Yunrong truly make an excellent pair."
"One is the Jade Ring Goddess, the other is the Spirit Treasure Immortal; tied by the Moon Elder's red string, blessed by Red Bird Fairy—if this isn't a perfect match, then what is?"
...
As all guests marveled, the Red Teeth Star Lord struck down by Haotian Divine Light in the Outer Realm formally lost his life.
This Star Lord, who showed half his demon body, was pathetic; despite being the descendant of Ancestor Dragon combined with a Star Spirit Strange Object, his roots were absolutely sound.
In a proper battle, he could have struggled.
But Grandma Taizhen had no interest in that—she deployed Haotian Divine Mirror, and while taking him by surprise, swiftly killed him.
Yet, at this very moment, an unexpected change occurred.
After the Red Teeth Star Lord's demon body completely disintegrated, it didn't entirely turn into nothingness; the countless "red teeth" were like a layer of armor, a gateway, shattered by Haotian Divine Light, revealing a phantom of a noble-robed prince and a twisted Star Spirit simultaneously obliterated but also exposing the innermost contents.
It was the blood and flesh hidden within the Star Spirit's demon body.
Tender crimson meat, like a piece of red cloth, a curled-up red tongue, slowly stretching open at this moment.
On the tongue's surface, a vague face appeared.
Scornful eyes, mouth, ears, nose... wriggling, speaking, roaring to express a desire to devour blood, life.
Various signs indicate that the source of this red tongue is entirely another tier, another world of existence.
No, that is a Divine Spirit.
This small piece of flesh instantly dyed the Void crimson.
Thick and pungent blood appeared from thin air, initially pitter-pattering, and then like a torrential rain pouring toward the Longevity Realm.
Midway, the scarlet raindrops transformed into various transcendent objects.
Pages of Secret Books, or bizarre Elixirs, or weapons and treasures.
Tao Qian, with the keenest eyesight and capable of borrowing the Heavenly Track's power, instantly saw these objects clearly.
Strangely enough, though the writings on those pages of Secret Books were enigmatic and mystical, they seemed specially crafted for the Human Clan, automatically converting at a glance.
"'Blood God Scripture,' 'Blood Body Technique,' [Forget Pill], [Red Demon Pill]... Good heavens, it seems that red tongue should be from the Outer Realm Evil God behind the Star Spirit, and upon the Star Spirit's death, it emerges not for revenge, but to spread benefits across the Longevity Realm?"
"Heh, this kind of generosity—either a scoundrel or a thief."
No sooner had Tao Qian formed this thought in his mind.
On the other side, without the need for Grandma Taizhen's instruction, Haotian Divine Mirror automatically released a second vast Divine Light.
Primal blue light broke through the sky, enveloping and evaporating the pouring blood rain and all contained treasures and resources within it.
At the same time, Grandma seemed to discern the origin of that red tongue and raised her fine brows in anger, declaring its roots:
"It's long been rumored that one of the 'Ten Vicious Beasts of the Great Abyss,' [Devouring Immortal], has two major hobbies; besides pressuring other beings to call it an immortal, it also enjoys parasitically embedding its flesh and blood into various Star Spirits or Clans, only waiting for these Star Spirits and Clans to die to reveal its flesh and scatter seeds."
