That's probably how it's gonna go, after Salem has been sufficiently weakened by the heroes, Ozpin himself moves in to land the final blow, taking Salem with him into the afterlife, thus bringing their age to an end. That's why he cannot die yet, not as long as Salem lives and thus his work remains incomplete. I can see his major goal in all this is gaining some form of redemption for whatever happened in ancient times that made Salem hate him so. Though once she is gone, mankind's future will finally be secured, one without Salem and the Grimm threatening their lives.
