Maa Kaalratri is the one who annihilated the demon Raktbija, who could not be killed, as he had the boon of coming to new life with each drop of blood that fell to the ground. It only meant that more number of demons would be created. Kaalratri lapped up each drop of his blood before it reached the ground, after severing his head off.
