• A woman claiming to be a sixth-step Great Emperor arrived to help Wen Xuanwu face Yu Mang.

After a month absorbing Six-Horned Magic Beast flesh, Sikong Jing pursued a way to break the Burial Emperor Rules by becoming a Blood Devour Magic Beast without losing his consciousness.

• Sikong Jing's Qing Ling Sword grew stronger, and he began to comprehend and merge with the Burial Emperor Rules, starting with Yin Spirit speed.

Sikong Jing completed his transformation into a true Blood Devour Magic Beast, resisted a Punishment Tribulation, and began studying Yin Spirit Speed. As Primordial Cosmos forces surrounded him, he failed to persuade Divine Cry Emperor and the others to oppose the Burial Emperor Rules, then revealed his increased power as the battle began.

• Sikong Jing argued that the Burial Emperor Rules could not punish him for gaining consciousness without violating their own laws, and the tribulation clouds dispersed.
• Sikong Jing sensed that Primordial Cosmos forces had arrived to encircle him and his companions near the Six-Tribulation Calamity.

After Mu Bujun completed his tribulation, Sikong Jing prepared to use his new understanding of Yin Spirit Speed to make the Divine Cosmos Ship outrun their pursuers.

• Sikong Jing unleashed four horn-swords and the Six-Horned Magic Beast’s blood-flesh swords, shattering the allied forces and driving many of their troops into demonization.
• As the Divine Relic Academy Dean attacked, Sikong Jing told Mu Bujun to break through, then withdrew the Divine Cosmos Ship and fled with him under the pull of the Eighth Tribulation’s Yin Spirit Evil Qi.
• Sikong Jing and Mu Bujun arrived at the Eighth Tribulation, where Origin Universe troops surrounded them and Mu Bujun began undergoing his tribulation.
• Sikong Jing held off the gathered troops, returned to Mu Bujun’s tribulation, and cultivated Yin Spirit Speed aboard the Divine Cosmos Ship while the enemy forces assembled nearby.
• Mu Bujun successfully completed his tribulation, and Sikong Jing revealed that he would incorporate his understanding of Yin Spirit Speed into the ship’s formations to escape pursuit.

Sikong Jing used Yin Spirit Evil Qi and his newly grasped Yin Spirit speed to make his Divine Cosmos Ship outrun the forces surrounding him. He escaped toward the Burial Emperor Battlefield as Yin Zhihun warned that he could not yet fully master the speed, while Battle Beast Old Monster questioned why the Burial Emperor Rules had not punished his second-stage fusion.

• Sikong Jing interrupted Absolute Heart Emperor and accused her of trying to lure him into the Hell Array, where Yu Mang would be recalled to kill him.

The Absolute Heart Emperor tried to lure Sikong Jing into the Hell Array by revealing the suffering of his allies and the danger facing the Vast Cosmos, while warning that Yu Mang would be waiting for him. Sikong Jing passed the entrance without entering, but a day later he sent Qin Luoluo away with a spatial treasure, suggesting he had decided to return alone.

• The Absolute Heart Emperor told Sikong Jing that the Mountain and River Divine General and Prison-Suppressing Shan Wei were being demonized, and that the Nine Heavens Emperor's Sword Dao Array could spare them a thousand years of pain.

• After a month, Sikong Jing's Divine Cosmos Ship passed the Hell Array entrance without stopping, relieving Qin Luoluo and the other two.
• One day later, Sikong Jing gave Qin Luoluo a spatial treasure containing people from her Zither Treasure Chamber of Commerce and prepared to enter the Hell Array alone.

Sikong Jing used a decoy to mislead the mysterious powerhouses while his true body returned to the Hell Array, hoping to learn whether the Mystic Jade Emperor was alive. The powerhouses instead joined Yu Mang in launching a full-scale assault on the Vast Cosmos Great World, where its defenders were already weakened by heavy losses.

• Sikong Jing explained that his Beast Heart Body would continue onward while his true body secretly returned to the Hell Array, and he reassured Mu Bujun, Qin Luoluo, and the others that he could escape Yu Mang if necessary.
• As Sikong Jing traveled back toward the Hell Array, he wondered whether the Mystic Jade Emperor was truly dead, since the New Purple Night Mystic Jade remained bright.
• The mysterious powerhouses realized Sikong Jing had not entered the Hell Array and refused to tell Yin Zhihun that Mystic Jade was alive, fearing Sikong Jing would help him break the array.
• Radiant Extinction Sacred Emperor ordered the powerhouses to cooperate with Yu Mang and put the Nine Heavens Emperor's evil thoughts into Sikong Jing's wife.

The King of Night Charms and the others fought to protect her as Sikong Jing entered the Hell Array and arrived on its seventeenth level.

• Chen Lusheng, Yu Xianpo, Black Tiger, and the other Vast Cosmos Emperors led their troops into battle to defend the Spirit Root Divine Willow and Su Yuexi.

• The Mystic Jade Emperor told Sikong Jing to accept his inheritance, which contained the secrets of how he had survived.

The vision ended as the ancestor entered his fourth divine tribulation, determined to reach a Tenth Tribulation and shatter the rules.

• Sikong Jing accepted the Mystic Jade Emperor’s inheritance of the Hell Array Ancient Ancestor, then gave the Mystic Jade Emperor the ninth level of the Nine Heavens Sword Dao.
• Sikong Jing learned that the Mystic Jade Emperor had encountered the Hell Array Ancient Ancestor’s remnant soul after Yu Mang killed him and his soul entered the Cycle of Reincarnation.
• Sikong Jing watched the Hell Array Ancient Ancestor defy the Burial Emperor Rules, reincarnate, and awaken his past-life memories as the first reincarnation expert.

Meanwhile, mysterious experts pressed their attack around the Spirit Root Divine Willow and hurried to implant the Nine Heavens Emperor’s evil will.

• Sikong Jing watched the Hell Array Ancient Ancestor charge into a rift, then learned from the Mystic Jade Emperor that the rest of the inheritance had not yet been triggered.

• Sikong Jing began cultivating the Hell Array Ancient Ancestor’s second life: the construction of the Hell Array.

Sikong Jing studied the Hell Array Ancient Ancestor’s formations until Yu Mang arrived on the seventeenth level, where Sikong Jing and the Mystic Jade Emperor joined forces to fight him. Meanwhile, the Vast Cosmos Anti-Seal Faction entered the Hell Array and prepared to face its defenses.

• Sikong Jing used his understanding of the Hell Array and his Tribulation-Breaking Power to reach combat strength equivalent to a Seven-Step Great Emperor.
• Yu Mang arrived on the seventeenth level, and the Mystic Jade Emperor joined Sikong Jing, revealing that he had become an Eight-Step Great Emperor despite being bound by chains.

• The Four Absolutes led Yu Mang’s troops and the Vast Cosmos Anti-Seal Faction into the Hell Array, where Black Tiger Hall Master asked Emperor Chen whether they should attack.

Sikong Jing and Mystic Jade Emperor fought Yu Mang on the seventeenth level of the Hell Array, while the forces above recovered and prepared for another battle. When the Nine Heavens Sword Dao Array lit up, Yu Mang tried to flee upward, but Mystic Jade Emperor blocked his path.

• Chen Lusheng urged the Anti-Seal Faction to recover instead of attacking the Hell Array, and Sword Shatter Emperor ordered them to protect Su Yuexi.
• Absolute Pill Emperor and the Three Absolutes prepared an Absolute Slaughter formation on the sixteenth level and waited for Sikong Jing to emerge.
• Sikong Jing used his Blood Devour Magic Beast power to demonize monsters with Vast Cosmos bloodlines and command them against Yu Mang's troops.
• Yu Mang's greater cultivation and troop numbers gradually forced Sikong Jing and Mystic Jade Emperor down, while Yu Mang taunted Sikong Jing about returning too late to save the Vast Cosmos.
• The Nine Heavens Sword Dao Array lit up on the eighteenth floor, and Yu Mang tried to retreat to the sixteenth level.
• Mystic Jade Emperor plunged into Yu Mang's Army-Slaying Formation and blocked his path.

Sikong Jing and the Mystic Jade Emperor trapped Yu Mang with coordinated attacks, letting Sikong Jing break through to the sixteenth level. Sikong Jing killed the Absolute Beast Emperor and shattered the Four Absolutes’ formation, then fled upward while wounded as Yu Mang began to recover.

• The Mystic Jade Emperor burned his origin and clung to Yu Mang, allowing Nine Heavens One Sword and Sikong Jing’s Mad Beast Sword Form to blast Yu Mang toward the sixteenth level.
• Sikong Jing followed the opening into the sixteenth level, where the Four Absolute Emperors mistook Yu Mang for the one emerging before he warned them that Sikong Jing was coming.

• Sikong Jing struck down the Absolute Beast Emperor, broke free of the formation, and declared that only four of the Ten Absolutes remained.
• Sikong Jing abandoned his chance to attack the injured Yu Mang and smashed through the fifteenth-level barrier, fleeing upward as the Three Absolutes pursued him.

Sikong Jing returned from the Hell Array to the Vast Cosmos Great World and began preparing its people for battle by sharing his powers and inheritances. His return also strengthened the Spirit Root Divine Willow, and Wen Xuanwu awakened from the brink of death.

Sikong Jing reunited with Su Yuexi while the exhausted forces of the Vast Cosmos Great World prepared to enter the Hell Array.

• Sikong Jing suspected Yu Mang planned to tear apart the Spirit Seal Realm’s seal and warned that the Burial Emperor Battlefield might open ahead of time.

Sikong Jing learned that the Burial Emperor Battlefield would open early, stripping away his Yin Spirit speed and allowing the Primordial Cosmos to invade freely. After Radiant Extinction Sacred Emperor urged him to abandon resistance, Sikong Jing rejected surrender and led Vast Cosmos to prepare for war.

• Sikong Jing explained that the Burial Emperor Battlefield's early opening would disperse the Yin Spirit Evil Qi, remove the tomb's space-time restrictions, and give the Primordial Cosmos a chance to invade.
• Radiant Extinction Sacred Emperor revealed that the Burial Emperor Rules repeatedly reshuffled and erased the two Great Worlds, and said that resistance was futile.

• Sikong Jing used the Spacetime White Jade Stone to lead the gathered forces toward the Spirit Seal Realm as Vast Cosmos united for battle.

Sikong Jing explained that the Burial Emperor Rules would eventually wipe out the worlds’ inhabitants and their inheritances, so the Vast Cosmos had to fight before the Burial Emperor Battlefield opened. When Yu Mang and the Three Absolutes Emperor shattered the Spirit Seal Realm’s seal, Sikong Jing ordered forces to protect the tribulation-crossers and used the Spirit Root Divine Willow’s power to defend his homeland from Absolute Pill Emperor’s attack.
