Has Ji Xiuning died completely?
Almost truly dead, if it weren't for the infusion of the Divine Demon Source Spring, endowing her bloodline with a trace of the purest ancient demon energy, she would have been completely dead long ago.
In any world, the dissolution of the soul is considered true death.
However, on Earth, bodily death is immediately accompanied by the death of the soul, with almost no time difference.
Yet in this world where Lanling currently finds himself, even if the heart is pierced or severed, even if the mental domain is scattered, it might not be true death.
As long as there's a tiny bit of energy deep in the bloodline maintaining the soul's existence, it means there hasn't been true, complete death.
Of course, the ancient demon energy within Ji Xiuning is extremely weak, far less than that of her son. So it could only maintain her soul for a very short time; if Lanling had acted even slightly slower, she would have faced complete soul obliteration.
