Sikong Jing arrived at Cangyu Island with the Demon Vein’s army-slaying formation and helped Ying Sanmeng withstand Chai Jiu’s attack. He appealed to the neutral elders for support by revealing the Cosmic Vein’s alliance and offering them a share of the Demon Vein inheritance, while Chai Jiu tried to turn them against the demons.
Sikong Jing used the threat of mutual destruction and the revelations about the Gods and Devils Island Sea inheritances to convince the neutral elders to mediate between the Cang and Cosmic Veins. Chai Jiu finally agreed to talk, but demanded that the Cosmic and Demon Veins swear allegiance to the Cang Vein and surrender their inheritances.
Chai Jiu and Sikong Jing’s forces raced to control the Absolute Formation Gate as their standoff on Cangyu Island continued. Chai Jiu’s plan to ambush Sikong Jing was exposed, and Sikong Jing revealed that Cosmic Vein troops were already positioned to stop him.
Sikong Jing trapped the Cang Vein’s forces and prepared to force them to surrender, while Chai Jiu refused to yield and sought outside support. When Elder Lu urged Sikong Jing to compromise, Sikong Jing explained that the Cang Vein could be rebuilt from anyone loyal to the Cangyu Demon Sect, then offered to share the Demon Vein’s inheritance with a new Cang Vein.
Sikong Jing tried to win Elder Lu over by promising to rebuild the Cang Vein with the Cosmic and Demon Veins’ inherited power, while Chai Jiu’s forces and the other factions remained locked in a standoff. When Chai Jiu’s summoned reinforcements arrived as the Absolute Formation Gate was set to close, he ended negotiations and declared he would destroy the Demon and Cangyu lines.
Sikong Jing revealed that the Cang Vein soldiers and neutral elders had joined the Demon and Cosmic lineages, leaving Chai Jiu surrounded and his forces collapsing. Chai Jiu was left demanding to know why Elder Lu had switched sides.
Ying Sanmeng declared the Cangyu Sect renamed as the Cangyu Demon Sect and led the new alliance in attacking Chai Jiu. After Chai Jiu escaped with a few followers, Sikong Jing and the surviving leaders arranged the new sect’s leadership.
Sikong Jing helped establish the Cangyu Demon Sect’s leadership and set plans for sharing the Cosmic Vein’s inheritance, while the Demon Vein inheritance remained out of reach for now. He explained that Chai Jiu’s escape could keep the new sect united, then told Teng Yue he was leaving for the Desolate Sea Forbidden Land, where his family lived.
Sikong Jing revealed his origins and the history of the Cangyu Demon Sect to Teng Yue, then instructed him on keeping the sect stable after his departure. He planned to stage his disappearance as imprisonment while Senior Zhan Hu helped him return to the Desolate Sea Forbidden Land.
Sikong Jing entered the Desolate Sea Absolute Formation with Ying Sanmeng and the Saint Martial demonfolk to reach Gods and Devils Island and claim the first Lord of the Demon Vein's inheritance. Chai Jiu disrupted their passage by using the Second Sect Master to provoke the formation and teleport Sikong Jing directly into the prison.
Chai Jiu sent Sikong Jing to the Gods and Devils Island prison, then planned to use another teleportation stone to send him to Pei Kuang in the Desolate Sea Forbidden Land. Sikong Jing vanished into the prison’s teleportation pillar, while Chai Jiu prepared to activate the linked stone.
Sikong Jing was teleported from the prison to the Desolate Sea Forbidden Land, using Chai Jiu’s attempt to delay him as a chance to return to the Central Plains. There, the war between the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce and the Thousand Kings Holy Tower reached its apparent final battle, with Pei Kuang challenging Murong Jianyun and Tyrant Lotus Venerable.
Tyrant Lotus Venerable and Tyrant Heaven faced Pei Kuang’s stronger forces, including three beast-hide elders from Boundless Sea, who claimed the Humanoid Fierce Beast had died. Just as Pei Kuang declared Tyrant Heaven doomed, a mysterious summoning appeared to rise from his body, though he insisted he had summoned nothing.
Pei Kuang’s supposed summoning brought a mysterious figure into the battlefield, giving the Thousand Kings Holy Tower confidence and plunging Tyrant Heaven into despair. The figure turned out to be Sikong Jing, whom Pei Kuang recognized as the Sikong Little Devil.
Sikong Jing returned to the decisive battle between Thousand Kings and Tyrant Heaven after Pei Kuang’s summoning brought him to the battlefield. His arrival rallied Tyrant Heaven’s forces, and he instantly killed Pei Yugong with a single kick.
Sikong Jing returned to the battlefield, killed Pei Yugong with one kick, and unsettled Pei Kuang by claiming he could enter and leave the mysterious prison freely. The old man in beast skins dismissed Sikong Jing as a fifth-realm Venerable and ordered A-Dai to capture him, leaving A-Dai attacking him.
Sikong Jing used the Space Sacred Key to seize A-Dai and lure the three Boundless Sea experts away from the battlefield, giving the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce renewed confidence. After the battle began, Sikong Jing emerged elsewhere with A-Dai and disrupted the surrounding space to delay the pursuing beastskin-clad elder.
Sikong Jing revealed that he was the Blood Devour Magic Beast who had killed A-Dai’s two companions, then entered the Emperor Realm through his Demonic Path First Form. He challenged A-Dai to test his new strength and began attacking him with Su Beiheng’s sword art.
Sikong Jing defeated A-Dai and learned that the pursuers had found the secret realm left behind by his parents, though they knew nothing of what happened to them. After A-Dai died, his spirit shadow named a supposedly dead Humanoid Fierce Beast before it was destroyed, leaving the two elders searching for whoever had intervened.
Sikong Jing gathered demonic beasts and sent word to Pei Kuang that the Humanoid Fierce Beast was alive and approaching. When the warning reached the battlefield, Tyrant Heaven's forces rallied while Thousand Kings' army lost its will to fight and began to collapse.
Pei Kuang’s forces collapsed under the Tyrant Heaven side’s relentless assault, and he called on Heavenly Heart Sacred Ancestor and other hidden experts for help. Sikong Jing returned to the battlefield, lifted his army’s morale, and taunted Pei Kuang as the two faced each other.
Sikong Jing unleashed a vast horde of demonic beasts after Heavenly Heart Sacred Ancestor refused to aid Pei Kuang, routing the Thousand Kings faction and driving it into retreat. Sikong Jing’s demonic body repeatedly blocked Pei Kuang’s escape routes, leaving the Thousand Kings forces trapped by beasts wherever they fled.
Pei Kuang fled to Thousand Kings Holy City to retrieve the Fierce Charm Sacred Body, but Sikong Jing and Overlord Heaven's forces ambushed him at the treasure vault. As Madam Raccoon and Pei Yusheng escaped, Pei Kuang attacked Sikong Jing and met his sword-light defense.
Sikong Jing and his allies cornered Pei Kuang and foiled his attempts to turn the battle around. Pei Kuang escaped into a summoning beam, while Murong Jianyun began taking control of Thousand Kings Holy City.
Sikong Jing waited beside the summoning pillar while Pei Kuang’s forces reorganized Thousand Kings Holy City, then stopped Pei Kuang from escaping. When Pei Kuang finally summoned three reinforcements, they recognized Sikong Jing and knelt before him.
