Teng Yue challenged Lian Zhidiao while the Cangyu Demon Sect overwhelmed the invading forces, convincing Bao Jiusu that the sect could seek cooperation with the Red Wind Sect. As the Eight Steeds Linked Camp Island elder fled with Lian Zhidiao, the battle continued around the shattered fleet.
The Cangyu Demon Sect defeated the invading forces, but the Eight Steeds elder and Lian Zhidiao vowed to return with a larger attack. Sikong Jing confronted Lian Zhidiao alone and sent him flying with one slap before Cangyu’s Divine Martial Stage powerhouses arrived to protect him.
After the Cangyu Demon Sect drove off its attackers, Chai Jiu approached Eight Steeds Linked Camp Island and proposed working together to reclaim the sect. He warned that the Cangyu Demon Sect’s defenses would grow stronger before their forces arrived, then named the Red Wind Sect.
Chai Jiu and Lian Zhidiao planned to stop Teng Yue from reaching Heaven Seal Academy, while Sikong Jing prepared to seek help from the Red Wind Sect. Sikong Jing revealed to Teng Yue that they would split up and act separately.
Sikong Jing arranged for Teng Yue to travel secretly to Heaven Seal Academy while an impersonator drew attention at Red Wind Sect. They found a suitable candidate in Twelve Leopard, who had just shed his demonic nature, and Sikong Jing took him and Teng Yue toward the seashore.
Teng Yue secretly left Cangyu Island for Heaven Seal Academy under Sikong Jing’s protection, while Twelve Leopard took his place as a disguised double. Their departure narrowly avoided detection by powerful experts searching the waters, and Teng Yue realized Chai Jiu might already control nearby sects.
Sikong Jing and the disguised Twelve Leopard left Cangyu Island with Zhan Hu, Elder Lu, and Bao Jiusu's group, heading for the Red Wind Sect while Chai Jiu planned to hunt them there. The chapter ended as the party entered the Boundless Sea, watched by hostile factions that dared not attack under the Cangyu Demon Sect's protection.
Sikong Jing and his companions escaped pursuit in a storm and headed for Sacred Gathering Island, while Teng Yue’s group planned to use the Red Wind Sect as a diversion before taking a teleportation array to Heaven Seal Academy. Jun Yiji refused to help them, and the chapter ended as Sikong Jing’s party arrived at the island’s marketplace and teleportation array.
Sikong Jing and his companions entered the Seal Sovereign Space Hall and teleported toward Red Wind Sect territory while Zhan Hu and Elder Lu stayed behind. Chai Jiu intercepted them at sea, but Zhan Hu’s Demonic Path Second-Layer Form let the pair escape, and Chai Jiu turned to his Red Wind Sect plan.
Sikong Jing and Bao Jiusu arrived at Red Wind Market Island to seek a recommendation from Elder Red Rong, but the Red Wind Sect intercepted them and invited Sikong Jing and Teng Yue to meet Elder Red Mountain. Before they could leave, Elder Joy Soul’s representative also demanded to see them.
Sikong Jing and Teng Yue were caught between Red Wind Sect elders Red Mountain and Joy Soul, who each tried to claim them. Sikong Jing insisted on first meeting Elder Hong Rong, but Tutu outmaneuvered Le Xiao and carried Twelve Leopard away.
Sikong Jing was separated from Twelve Leopard when Tutu took him away, while Le Xiao brought Sikong Jing to Elder Le Hun on the Red Wind Continent. Elder Le Hun offered to protect Teng Yue’s journey to Heaven Seal Academy under conditions that included joining the Red Wind Sect and becoming Princess Fennel’s prince consort.
Sikong Jing faced Joy Soul and Le Xiao’s demands for the Cangyu Demon Sect’s treasures and explained the sect’s rise as the result of demon-folk inheritance and Grandpa Bahun’s legacy. He handed over the Demonic Battle Heaven-Constant Art, leaving Joy Soul and Le Xiao angry when they discovered it was a low-grade divine-rank technique they could not use.
Sikong Jing let Le Xiao inspect his storage stone, then agreed to Joy Soul's demands while explaining that he could not force Teng Yue to accept them. Joy Soul ordered him taken to Elder Red Mountain, where Twelve Leopard faced similar conditions.
Twelve Leopard refused to decide whether to accept Elder Red Mountain’s conditions, insisting that Sikong Jing had the final say, while Sikong Jing remained in Elder Joy Soul’s custody. The elders gathered at Sovereign Mountain to settle the dispute, where Red Rong introduced himself to Sikong Jing.
Sikong Jing negotiated with Red Mountain, Joy Soul, and Red Rong over Teng Yue’s discipleship, refusing to let him leave the Cangyu Demon Sect or take any of them as his master. The elders rejected his terms, and Le Xiao threatened to kill Sikong Jing unless Teng Yue joined the Red Wind Sect.
Sikong Jing and Twelve Leopard challenged the Red Wind Sect elders’ coercive demands, insisting they would rather die than submit willingly. The elders remained divided over Teng Yue’s choice of master, and the confrontation ended with Sikong Jing and Twelve Leopard daring them to kill them.
Sikong Jing refused to offer further concessions to the Red Wind Sect, so its elders sent him and Twelve Leopard to Blood Evil Valley to force them to accept the sect’s conditions. As Tutu and Le Xiao brought them to the valley, Le Xiao asked whether they wanted to know what lay inside.
Sikong Jing and Twelve Leopard were imprisoned in Blood Evil Valley, where Sikong Jing explained that their mission at the Red Wind Sect was to buy time for the real Teng Yue. The valley’s illusions began tormenting Twelve Leopard, and Sikong Jing broke them, leaving him to realize what he had seen was fake.
Sikong Jing guided Twelve Leopard through Blood Evil Valley, where illusions and real dangers left him struggling to tell them apart. After Sikong Jing killed a giant illusion-controlling insect, Le Xiao revealed that the first trial had only begun and gave them five days before she would demand an answer.
Sikong Jing led Twelve Leopard through Blood Evil Valley, overcoming its dangers while training him and discovering that a powerful being controlled the strange bugs. They ventured deeper to find out what that being was, despite the threat of a formidable ferocious beast lurking there.
Sikong Jing and Twelve Leopard ventured deeper into Blood Evil Valley, where Sikong Jing discovered the valley was formed from the remains of the Blood Silence Fierce Python, a fallen friend of the beasts imprisoned in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Prison. He promised to find and awaken its lingering consciousness, but sensed people near the python’s skull.
Sikong Jing and Twelve Leopard hid near the Blood Silence Fierce Python’s skull and overheard Red Wind Old Monster discussing his mission to capture its twisted Spirit Shadow with an Imperial Envoy of the Flame Prison Heavenly Emperor. When the envoy sensed someone nearby, he attacked a third person in the blood mist, who emerged as a formidable middle-aged warrior.
Sikong Jing watched the Imperial Envoy and Red Wind Old Monster corner a hidden Seal Sovereign Empire battle general, then decided to create a distraction by damaging the formations binding the Blood Silence Fierce Python's spirit shadow. He struck one corner of the formation, hoping to draw the attackers away and give the battle general a chance to escape.
Sikong Jing sabotaged Red Wind Old Monster’s formation, triggering a crisis that let the Seal Sovereign War General escape briefly before the Imperial Envoy killed his body. The War General’s spirit shadow was swallowed by a strange insect, where it encountered Sikong Jing as the chapter ended.
