Yoze was able to put two and two together and was able to figure out that he had encountered a real immortal. He had 90 percent confidence that he wasn't wrong about that fact either as only real immortals and demons could survive after having their spiritual energy devoured.
While Yoze had never met a real immortal and not an immortal cultivator, he had seen real demons. He had long had a theory that as long as a demon still hadn't been eaten to its very bones and had some spiritual energy flowing through their bodies it would be able to regain all its spiritual energy by killing creatures and truly come back to life.
