Si Ming strengthened his ties with Sword-Forging Manor and Xiao Xuan, gained the Dragon Scale Sword, and returned home to deepen his relationship with Hongdou and Murong Qing. He helped capture Qi Yunfei and ended the stretch celebrating New Year at the orphanage.
Si Ming joined Liu Qingqing and Lin Qingxiang in a mission against the Heaven-Defying Society, where Liu Qingqing defeated Lin Qingtong and the team uncovered the Society’s use of Divine Soul Tree Seeds. After returning to school, Si Ming helped assess the martial arts club and discussed how to warn the public about the Society’s plans, then agreed to go shopping with Si Huaruo.
Si Ming and Si Jingyu deepened their cultivation while the Second Martial Arts Club prepared for the national competition. Linked Mountains University advanced past the Kunlun Martial Alliance, leaving Si Ming to prepare for a dangerous match against International Union Academy.
Si Ming and the Linked Mountains University Second Martial Arts Club fought through the semifinals and defeated Heavenly Black University in the final. The club claimed the championship tripod, while a parallel-world scene showed Liu Qingqing and Lin Qingxiang facing Lin Qingtong.
After Lin Qingtong and Lin Qingxiang died, Si Ming traveled to the Nation of Valor to help Ba Shenhuang oppose Huang Yan and the Military God. The Demon Race’s invasion made peace impossible, and Si Ming escorted the wounded Ba Shenhuang to Zhenzhou as the Nation of Valor prepared for another attack.
Si Ming secured Medicine King Valley’s aid and treated Ba Shenhuang as the Demon Race’s attacks spread across the human states. After Ying Zhou helped disrupt one demon army, Si Ming rescued Xing Daozhuang from Huang Yan and Mengying, but Huang Yan escaped and the survivors remained unaware of how badly Xing Daozhuang was hurt.
Si Ming and Tu Wangyue fought the Demon Race’s leaders as Huang Yan betrayed Chongjing and led the demons away through a wormhole. Si Ming returned to the Barbarian Continent, helped defend Cease War City and the allied sects, and reunited with Yu Shuying while questions about the monsters’ master remained.
Si Ming restored the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda and fought the Netherworld Insect Princess, while the gathered allies battled the Kings of Monsters. After recovering, Si Ming arranged for Tu Wangyue to send the Sacred Sword through a space-time tunnel, but Beast King Anye attacked the formations and left Henzhen facing him in a desperate fight.
Si Ming defeated the Netherworld Insect Princess, then uncovered Tu Wangyue’s role in the Sacred Sword plot and the demon tides. Tu Wangyue died before her trial could reach a verdict, and Si Ming’s investigation into the Witch Gu Sect led him into Li State, where he encountered a group fleeing Barbarian Hu cavalry.
Si Ming and his allies helped Li State’s army escape, contested the Juntian Divine Sword, and fought the Barbarian King and the Return to Antiquity Patriarch. The Patriarch’s return unleashed a massive Gu infestation, leaving Si Ming facing the Silver Wolf King as the crisis spread.
Si Ming and his allies pursued the Barbarian King and uncovered the Myriad Gu Witch Ancestor’s plan to exploit the Eternal Barrier. The Witch Ancestor was ultimately killed, while Murong Qing lost her cultivation and Yan Jinghong was left near death but preserved in ice.
