After them she fought with dangerous another Demon called “Raktabeej”. He was so dangerous if one drop of his blood fell in to the ground thousands clone demons were born. Mata kali fought hard and several time she killed Raktabeej but he reborn again. At last she cut his head and drink all blood from his body. Not a single drop of blood fell in to the ground. Thus she killed Raktabeej finally.
