It was precisely the incomplete version of the Heaven Refining Ancient Array.
"Heaven Refining Ancient Array—Strip Away!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint lightly waved his illusory hand, and countless dense fire threads shot out from within the curtain of flames. These threads formed layers of fire nets, deeply branding themselves into the depths of the demonic lotus.
Then, the fire nets slowly pulled upward, forcing wisps of blood-colored mist out from the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame's body.
"Ah! No! You can't do this! Without my memories, without my intelligence, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame will have no consciousness in the future! How is this any different from killing me? You can't do it! You no longer possess such vast energy—you can't do it!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame screamed, its voice filled with unwillingness and despair.
Seeing this, Liu Bai spoke calmly. "Senior, just act. Leave the rest to me."
With a lift of his hand, vast power of heaven and earth surged in from every direction of the Kunxu Realm, flowing toward the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.
That power of heaven and earth was pure and boundless, enough to support the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint in completing the final ritual.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint smiled faintly, a trace of gratitude flashing through his eyes.
"Thank you, little friend. If I only had a remnant soul, I truly could not do this. But with the power of heaven and earth in this realm... Little Demon, come with me."
He raised his hand, and streams of dense blood mist rapidly poured out from the demonic lotus. At last, they swiftly formed a blood-colored figure above it.
That figure was identical to the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, yet even more violent and savage.
