"Hey hey! Why are you suddenly angry?" Bexia leaped to the side of Moon, smiling, and asked.

  "Get lost! I'm just annoyed, what's it to you?"

  "Hey! Is this also an ancient artifact?" Bexia arrived at the hand of Tianxiang Demon God and saw a simple and ancient-looking bracelet here.

  "Is this a storage item?" Bexia was puzzled, but hesitated to take down the bracelet. So he wielded his warblade fiercely and cut off Tianxiang Demon God's hand and wrist in one stroke.

  "Boom!" With the wrist cut short, Tianxiang Demon God lost some support, causing his body to tilt, frightening Moon.

  "Here you go!" Bexia tossed the bracelet he collected to Moon, feeling a bit strange about his actions, as if he had been a bit reckless. But thankfully, the body of Tianxiang Demon God only tilted and did not fall over.

  "Cut! I don't want it, it's so ugly!" Moon knocked the bracelet back to Bexia with a punch.

  "Ugly? Why don't I think so?" Bexia caught the bracelet, looking at the intricate inscriptions on it. Since this thing could belong to Tianxiang Demon God, it must be extraordinary and definitely not inferior to the crown on the head of the River God.

  "Wait! Behind you, Moon!" Bexia suddenly saw a black aura rising from Moon's back, with a hideous face within it!

  "What?" Moon turned her head in confusion, but then her hair stood on end as she quickly unfolded the flesh wings on her back, attempting to escape.

  "Ah! Ahh!" Moon let out a scream as her body was sent flying.

  "Moon!!" Bexia immediately caught her flying body, and when he looked down, he couldn't help but take a cold breath.

  Moon at this moment was as thin as a skeleton, with a huge scar emanating black aura on her chest, her body seemingly drained of blood all at once.

  Upon being called by Bexia, Moon opened her eyes slightly, subconsciously reacting by hugging Bexia's neck and biting without hesitation.

  "Blood... blood... I want blood..." The shadow that ambushed Moon seemed like a dark mist, with only the face of an elephant roaring inside.

  "What kind of monster is this?" Feeling Moon recovering in his arms, Bexia conjured several spears behind him and shot them towards the shadow, but to no effect.

  "Who am I... Ahh! I want blood... I am Tianxiang... blood... blood..." The shadow seemed in great turmoil, and Bexia also noticed that black energy was constantly surging out from the severed wrist of Tianxiang Demon God, merging with the black shadow.

  After the ambush on Moon by the shadow, Luo Cailing became alert, shooting her hand crossbow loaded with arrows without hesitation at the shadow.

  "No, wait!" Bexia wanted to stop Luo Cailing, but it was already too late. The crimson flaming arrow shot straight towards the shadow, erupting into a massive wave of flames.

  "Run!" Bexia shouted loudly.

  "What's happening?!" Luo Cailing didn't understand the situation.

  "That monster was sealed within the body of Tianxiang Demon God. When you exploded it, you may have completely released it!" Bexia said.

  "Ha! What's there to fear!" Luo Cailing shrugged off, saying.

  "Let's go!" Bexia pulled one along, and the Wing of Azure Sky flew quickly towards the opening of the pit. Below, Luo Cailing's arrow shattered the body of Tianxiang Demon God, causing a large amount of black energy to surge out and merge with the previous shadow, gradually forming a smaller version of Tianxiang Demon God.

  "Rustle rustle!" The illusory Tianxiang Demon God exuded a special aura. Its eyes fell on the broken body below and then abruptly lifted its gaze, sending a chill down Bexia's spine.

  "Die!" The illusory Tianxiang Demon God erupted with a single word, then suddenly disappeared, with its body falling heavily towards Bexia outside.

  "Sacred Barrier!" Bexia reacted swiftly and immediately erected a barrier. The ethereal Tianxiang Demon God crashed down onto it, breaking the defense of the Sacred Barrier after a brief moment.

  However, that brief moment also allowed Bexia to come up with enough countermeasures. He had already moved out of the attack range of Tianxiang Demon God.

  "This thing is a divine dead soul!" Luo Cailing frowned, looking at the ethereal Tianxiang Demon God.

  "Dead soul?"

  "When the soul of an eternal-grade deity completely transforms into a divine soul, it produces three souls: the living soul, the life soul, and the dead soul, which is the dead soul of the Tianxiang Demon God!"

  "The dead soul is quite unique. Normally, it doesn't have much effect. It's only when a deity truly falls, the living soul perishes, and the dead soul lingers within the body, eventually vanishing along with the body!"

  "But there are also special cases where the dead soul develops an independent consciousness, absorbing the power from the body to grow, yet still being confined by the body. As long as an external force breaks the body's restraints, the dead soul is liberated and becomes an independent entity, just like the one in front of us!" Luo Cailing shrugged, not daring to meet Bexia's eyes, and said.

  "It was my mistake just now."

  "Enough talk, let's figure out how to deal with this trouble!" Bexia frowned, looking at the dead soul of Tianxiang Demon God.

  "No worries! The dead soul can only inherit a part of the original owner's power, and after all this time, I think this thing is not that powerful!" Luo Cailing casually loaded her arrows and shot them at the dead soul of Tianxiang Demon God...
