The cultivators of the Daoist Artifact Refining Sect at the Pill Resolution realm of the Seventh Heavenly Layer had completely shed their mortal flesh. Their current physical forms, like Zheng Dongying's, were entirely manifested by the transformations of their immortal souls.
Being decapitated did not necessarily mean certain death for such cultivators.
But now, neither her head soaring into the sky nor the body left behind could maintain their form. Instead, they seemed to collapse and burst from within, as if unable to withstand some immense force.
As they dispersed, faint sounds of thunder and fire rumbled, the explosion incinerating Zheng Dongying's immortal soul.
Affected by this subsequent impact, her immortal soul could no longer sustain itself and was ground to nothingness on the spot, utterly annihilated.
However, the sword light that had flown out showed faint signs of separating in mid-air.
