Sikong Jing tried to draw a mountain-sized remnant of the Six-Horned Magic Beast into the Divine Relic Small World, but his demonic intent was not yet strong enough. As he strengthened his powers while carefully preserving his reason, the Aurora Sacred Pearl tracked the Vast Cosmos invader to the territory of Divine Relic Academy.
The Aurora Sacred Lord mobilized the Four Great Powers to find the Vast Universe infiltrator at Divine Relic Academy, while the Divine Relic Academy Dean confronted Ancient Soul and Seven Orders over the trap that had targeted Mo Yu. A beam of Holy Light exposed Seven Orders in the middle of the standoff, leaving him demanding an explanation from the Aurora Sacred Lord.
The Aurora Sacred Lord revealed that a Vast Universe intruder was hiding in Divine Relic Academy, prompting the Four Great Powers to seize the academy’s defenses and lock down the Nine Heavens Alliance. Half a month later, Sikong Jing remained unaware of the blockade as a giant beast appeared beyond the world barrier.
Sikong Jing was swallowed by a colossal beast beyond the world barrier after it attacked him over the Six-Horned remnant body. The Nine Heavens Essence Blood protected him inside the beast and revealed that it was a monster transformed by absorbing another Six-Horned Magic Beast remnant body.
Sikong Jing watched the Nine Heavens Emperor battle the Mountain City Lord in the fourth illusion and learned more about the Aurora Emperor Vein. After the colossal beast died and Sikong Jing reached the true Relicless Mountain City, a remnant soul tried to possess him, only to find itself trapped in his consciousness.
Sikong Jing destroyed the Mountain City Lord’s remnant soul and escaped the Mountain City Cluster, returning to the Divine Relic Small World. He realized the giant beast had entered through the boundary only by exploiting the disturbance caused by his demonic state.
Sikong Jing pieced together the Nine Heavens Emperor’s battle with the Mountain City Lord, exhausted the Nine Heavens Essence Blood, and returned to Relicless Mountain City to learn what had happened at Divine Relic Academy. There, Emperor Zhan Ke arrived and publicly demanded to know where the suspected Vast Cosmos infiltrator was.
Emperor Zhan Ke ordered the Divine Relic Academy Dean to summon Wild Beast Mo Yu while keeping everyone under close watch. Sikong Jing returned to Relicless Mountain City, where a War Puppet’s repeated call prompted him to head back to Divine Relic Hall, unaware of the danger awaiting him.
Sikong Jing sensed danger while traveling through Relicless Mountain City and sent Qin Luoluo ahead to investigate. As he waited near the Dark Relic Canopy, a Black Prison Heaven-Swallowing Tiger from the Vast Cosmos appeared and offered to make him its successor.
Sikong Jing refused the Hell Array Heaven-Swallowing Tiger’s offer to remake him, claiming he had already promised another mysterious powerhouse. The tiger revealed that the Aurora Sacred Pearl suspected Sikong Jing was a Vast Cosmos invader and that the Aurora Sacred Lord had ordered him made the War Beast Young Master’s slave, leaving Sikong Jing and his companions facing imminent danger.
Sikong Jing faced exposure as a Vast Universe invader and weighed ways to escape the forces gathering against him. When he refused the Hell Array Heaven-Swallowing Tiger’s offer to alter him, he used its essence blood to create a new crisis that could break the deadlock.
Sikong Jing tried to clear himself of Vast Cosmos ties by letting Mu Bujun and Wan Qi absorb the Black Prison Heaven-Swallowing Tiger’s essence blood, while resisting its spirit shadow. The Mountain and River Divine General arrived, and the Tiger mistook him for Sikong Jing’s chosen expert before leaving; the General began to correct it too late.
Sikong Jing learned from the Mountain and River Divine General that his master, the Mountain City Lord, had nearly broken the Burial Emperor Rules before being killed, and that the general had once secretly warned him in the Hell Array. After the general departed to inspect the world barrier, Sikong Jing prepared Mu Bujun and Wan Qi to receive the Heaven-Swallowing Tiger's blood essence as the crisis in the Primordial Cosmos Great World continued.
Sikong Jing helped Mu Bujun and Wan Qi fuse Heaven-Swallowing Tiger essence blood while the Hell Array Heaven-Swallowing Tiger abandoned its plan to interfere. Qin Luoluo changed course toward the Eerie Relic Mountain Range to find Nine Heavens Essence Blood, prompting Emperor Zhan Ke to send Zhan Ai after her, while Wan Qi awoke to discover she now carried Vast Universe aura.
Sikong Jing learned that Zhan Ai was taking Qin Luoluo to the Divine Relic Hall, so he planned to use Wan Qi’s breakthrough to summon the Yin Spirit Evil Qi and speed his return. At the Divine Relic Hall, the Dean revealed Qin Luoluo’s identity just before Emperor Zhan Ke ordered a forcible soul search.
Sikong Jing arrived in the Divine Relic Small World just as Emperor Zhan Ke was about to search Qin Luoluo’s soul. Zhan Ke accused Sikong Jing of colluding with the Vast Cosmos, but Sikong Jing feigned ignorance and faced calls for his soul to be searched.
Emperor Zhan Ke demanded to search Sikong Jing’s soul over suspected ties to the Vast Universe invaders, but Sikong Jing agreed only if Zhan Da and Chang Xiangxiang would also face soul-searches if he was cleared. Sikong Jing called for the search to be held publicly, and the Divine Relic Academy Dean carried him and Qin Luoluo toward the exit to continue the matter outside.
The Divine Relic Academy Dean brought Sikong Jing out of the Divine Relic Small World and announced that Emperor Zhan Ke would search Mo Yu’s soul for ties to the Vast Cosmos. The dean demanded that if Mo Yu proved innocent, the War Beast Young Master and Chang Xiangxiang also face soul searches, while Mo Yu calmly accepted the test.
Sikong Jing prevented the Demon Race from searching his soul by proposing an interrogation through beastly aura instead. As Emperor Zhan Ke’s gathered forces crushed him with their pressure, Sikong Jing fought to stay upright, while the Divine Relic Academy Dean demanded Zhan Da kneel if Mo Yu proved innocent.
Sikong Jing endured Zhan Ke’s soul-shaking interrogation and recounted his fabricated history of meeting people from the Vast Cosmos Great World. His final admission that he was connected to the invader left the Divine Relic Academy Dean and the Nine Heavens Alliance stunned as their enemies celebrated.
Sikong Jing claimed that Wan Qi and A Mu had been tainted by the Black Prison Heaven-Swallowing Tiger’s essence blood, explaining why the Aurora Sacred Pearl mistook them for invaders. When Emperor Zhan Ke doubted his account, the Mountain and River Divine General appeared and supported Sikong Jing’s story, leaving the crowd convinced and the crisis defused.
Sikong Jing was cleared of ties to the Vast Cosmos Great World after Mountain and River Divine General’s appearance confirmed his account, and Qin Luoluo explained why she had changed course. The Aurora Sacred Lord was summoned to verify whether another invader remained at Divine Relic Academy.
After the Aurora Sacred Pearl confirmed there were no Vast Universe invaders, the Aurora Sacred Lord ordered the three Wild Beasts to be brought to the Aurora Sacred Domain. Huang Yin revealed himself as a Wild Beast Emperor and demanded that Sikong Jing kneel, but Sikong Jing denounced him as a traitor as Huang Yin’s bloodline pressure bore down on him.
Sikong Jing, posing as Wild Beast Mo Yu, resisted Huang Yin’s bloodline coercion by invoking the phantom of his supposed master, the Wild Beast Monster Emperor. The Nine Heavens Alliance rallied to protect him, but the War Beast Clan and its allies confronted them over the earlier wager.
The Aurora Sacred Lord mediated the standoff and arranged to collect the three Wild Beasts in half a month. Sikong Jing openly defied her by triggering Wan Qi and Mu Bujun’s tribulations, then accused her of supplying the Wild Beast Great Emperor to the War Beast Clan.
