Jinghang brought Su Yuexi to Voyaging Heart Hall for a forced wedding to Zhe Ying, who threatened her with Sikong Jing’s supposed torment in Dead Spirit Cavern. Sikong Jing appeared in the ceremonial hall and struck Menhang away when she tried to seize him.
Sikong Jing appeared at Voyaging Heart Hall and killed Long Jing and Xiao Moli, while Jing Hang refused to believe he was genuine. Yu Xianpo arrived, and the Spirit Race’s vassal Emperors broke free of his formation, bringing the confrontation closer to open war.
Yu Xianpo and the demon rat form revealed themselves at Zhe Ying’s wedding and demanded that Zhe Ying fight for Su Yuexi. Zhe Ying’s domain began to collapse against the demon rat form’s sword, and he tried to break through to the Divine Dao Realm.
Sikong Jing's demon rat body defeated Zhe Ying and proved to the crowd that he was the real Feather Alliance Sikong Jing. As he demanded the groom's clothes to take Su Yuexi away, Jing Hang pleaded with her to stay, fearing Ling Zhe would kill the Jing Hang branch if the wedding failed.
Su Yuexi exposed Jinghang’s betrayal and explained that she had been taken from the Burial Emperor Spirit Seal Realm rather than raised as Jinghang’s disciple. She asked Sikong Jing to save Voyaging Heart Hall’s people, and nearly half the hall joined Yu Xianpo’s Army-Slaying Formation as the vassal Imperial Venerables hesitated to fight.
Sikong Jing’s Demon Rat body forced Zhe Ying to yield and led most of Voyaging Heart Hall away, while Imperial Venerable Jinghang went mad and attacked those left behind. As the Spirit Race’s affiliates began questioning their loyalty, Sikong Jing’s true body remained disguised as Chu Jin in Spirit Dream City, where A-Ruo prepared to take him to the Heroic Spirit Dream Hall ahead of the Swordwalk Small World’s opening.
Sikong Jing, disguised as Chu Jin, joined A-Ruo’s group at the Heroic Spirit Dream Hall, where Spirit Race members gathered to qualify for the Swordwalk Small World. After A-Ruo introduced him to Chu Yin and Ou Chu’s other adopted children, clan elder Ling Gui arrived to begin the trial, prompting Spirit Parrot to warn Sikong Jing not to draw attention.
Sikong Jing disguised himself among Spirit Race candidates while Ling Gui used their trial to search for him. Chu Yin accused him of being a spy and demanded his adoptive father's bloodline, but Ling Gui abruptly left after learning that Sikong Jing had apparently escaped the Spirit Race blockade.
Sikong Jing faced pressure from Chu Yin and Ou Zhui to surrender Ou Chu’s bloodline inheritance, then escaped their demands by forcing his way into the Heroic Spirit Dream Hall. Inside, he considered whether communicating with the Heroic Spirit Guards could save him from execution and reveal his connection to the Feather Alliance’s ancestor.
Sikong Jing learned how to communicate with Heroic Spirit Guards and used Spirit Gull’s bloodline to awaken the Feather Alliance Patriarch in the Heroic Spirit Dream Hall. He asked the patriarch to teach him Feather Alliance Hall methods, while remaining wary of what the Heroic Spirit Guards might know about his escape from Dead Spirit Cavern.
Sikong Jing passed as Chu Jin and received a chance to study the illusory Heroic Spirit Martial Dao Grand Formation without the Feather Alliance Patriarch recognizing him. Meanwhile, Ling Dao’s elders concealed Sikong Jing’s escape and ordered a public bounty on Yu Xianpo while keeping the hunt for Sikong Jing and the Purple Night Mystic Jade secret.
Sikong Jing secretly comprehended the Heroic Spirit martial arts array, then convinced Spirit Gull to spare him and send him to the Swordwalk Small World under the new name Ou Jin. The chapter left him following Spirit Gull while Spirit Parrot plotted to use his disguise to confront her.
Sikong Jing, disguised as Ou Jin, was recognized by Spirit Gull as a gifted disciple and inherited Ou Chu’s estate while the Spirit Race accepted the false story that Sikong Jing had already escaped. He chose to remain with the Spirit Race party bound for Swordwalk Small World, while his Demon Rat body prepared to leave for Swordwalk Forbidden Domain.
Yu Xianpo led a contingent toward the Swordwalk Small World as the Feather Alliance Hall and its allies divided their forces to establish a foothold elsewhere. The demon rat incarnation returned to the Swordwalk Forbidden Domain and set out to reclaim Demon Sword City, where the Mountain Roc Demon Emperor awaited him.
Mountain Roc demanded a drop of the Demon Rat body's essence blood and a thread of its Beast Emperor Soul Intent in exchange for Demon Sword City and captured Feather Sword demon beasts. The Demon Rat body exposed a trap involving Silk Silkworm and a human array, then threatened to summon Black Tiger, leaving Mountain Roc and Silk Silkworm offering to withdraw only if they received other benefits.
The Demon Rat form forced Mountain Roc and Silk Silkworm to abandon Demon Sword City and learned that Green Rhino held the Feather Sword Night Civet King and the others. It realized a powerful force was targeting it, while the enemy’s young master planned to use Green Rhino and the captives to lure it into Beastbane Mountain.
Mountain Roc and Silk Silkworm learned that demon qi planted by the little demon rat had killed several of their subordinates, while Mountain Roc revealed why he had joined the Beast Venerable Hall. Meanwhile, Sikong Jing uncovered the faction's involvement and headed toward Beastbane Mountain, where he learned more about the mysterious Beast Venerable Young Master.
Sikong Jing’s demon rat body reached Absolute Beast Mountain to investigate Green Rhino and rescue Night Civet King and the others. He found his old companions imprisoned and heard them doubt that he would come for them, before landing on Little Dark’s head.
Little Rat reunited with Shu'er and Little Dark Demon Dragon as Green Rhino Demon Emperor prepared to use the Feather Sword demon beasts to lure him out. The Beast Venerable Young Master arrived and offered Green Rhino a place in the Beast Venerable Hall in exchange for helping capture Little Rat.
The Beast Venerable Young Master coerced the Green Rhino Demon Emperor into joining the Beast Venerable Hall, using its own subordinates to threaten it. The Shadow Moon Demon Rat appeared before the deal was completed, revealed that he had already uncovered the Beast Venerable Young Master's scheme in Demon Sword City, and confronted him directly.
The Beast Venerable Young Master confronted Young Master Ten Thousand Demon over Green Rhino, revealing that both sides had powerful Demon Emperors ready to fight. He proposed a duel, offering to let the Shadow Moon Demon Rat challenge him again at the Beastbane Mountain ruins if he lost.
The Demon Mouse challenged Young Master Beast Venerable’s claim that he held the advantage, and Yu Xianpo’s sudden intervention disrupted the Beast Venerable Hall’s plan. With the battle shifting into a standoff between Demon Emperors, Young Master Beast Venerable prepared to face Young Master of Ten Thousand Demons while Green Rhino was allowed to remain neutral.
The Demon Rat and Young Master Beast Venerable clashed in bloodline, Soul Intent, and domain, then fought with their weapons as the surrounding factions watched. Their domains shattered in a greatsword-and-greatblade collision, leaving the five Demon Race Emperors wondering if Young Master Beast Venerable’s sword carried the aura of the Sword Clan.
The Demon Rat Body and the Beast Venerable Young Master clashed before the gathered factions, revealing their extraordinary ties to the Saber Clan and Sword Clan. The Demon Rat Body’s Ancient Broken Blade Array nearly overwhelmed his opponent, but the Beast Venerable Young Master countered with a sword array, leaving their battle unresolved.
Demon Rat and Young Master Beast Venerable clashed over control of the demon beasts around Beastbane City, and Demon Rat appeared to be losing the bloodline contest. He then infused his Beast Slaughter Array patterns with demonic intent, breaking Young Master Beast Venerable’s control and turning the beasts into Magic Beasts.
