Pei Sijing was brought back from the illusion by Bai Jiu, only to find Pei Siheng on the verge of death. One of the puppet’s arms lay discarded in the distance, and Pei Siheng’s puppet body was irreparably damaged, rendering resurrection impossible. She recalled Pei Siheng once saying that he had become armor to protect his sister, but armor is destined to break, melting away like snow and ice.

Zhao Yuanzhou, along with two others, fought Wen Zongyu but found themselves overwhelmed, especially Zhao Yuanzhou, who had lost his demon power and was utterly exhausted. Li Lun, mustering all his strength, approached Zhuo Yichen and revealed that his true form was a locust tree. Though incapable of defeating Wen Zongyu outright, he could attract the energy of the Never-Ending Wood to himself, thereby weakening Wen Zongyu’s demon power and giving Zhuo Yichen a chance to strike.

Zhuo Yichen understood that Li Lun was sacrificing himself as bait and refused to let him take the risk. Before he could object further, Wen Zongyu grabbed him by the throat. Li Lun resolved to transfer half of his demon power to Zhuo Yichen, reasoning that the combined strength of the locust tree demon and Bing Yi would suffice against Wen Zongyu. As for Zhao Yuanzhou, Li Lun had always regarded him as a close friend and an equal rival.

Unable to bear seeing Zhao Yuanzhou in such a weakened state, Li Lun gave him the other half of his demon power. After the power transfer, Li Lun used his remaining magic to levitate and transformed into countless locust tree branches. As expected, Wen Zongyu launched a ferocious attack with the Never-Ending Wood, consuming significant energy. Zhuo Yichen restrained Wen Zongyu with a chain, and as Wen Zongyu broke free, he expended even more demon power.

The locust tree burned smaller and smaller, and in the end, Li Lun fulfilled his vow to protect the Great Wilderness. After Li Lun’s disappearance, Zhao Yuanzhou spread his wings for Zhuo Yichen, allowing him to take to the skies and confront Wen Zongyu. When the moment was right, Zhuo Yichen descended to Wen Zongyu’s side. Wen Zongyu, barely holding on with the support of the Never-Ending Wood, faced a combined assault.

Zhao Yuanzhou used his avatar technique to assist Zhuo Yichen, enabling him to pierce Wen Zongyu’s inner dan hidden in his elbow. Wen Zongyu was reduced to ashes, and Zhuo Yichen prepared to leave Mount Kunlun. However, he found himself trapped, unable to move past an impenetrable barrier. Wen Zongyu’s voice suddenly echoed again, claiming that he could undergo a phoenix-like rebirth and regenerate endlessly from the ashes of the Never-Ending Wood.

As he spoke, a hand reached out from the ashes and gripped Zhuo Yichen’s throat. Meanwhile, Bai Jiu discovered a barrier in the dungeon—a place Wen Zongyu had always forbidden anyone from approaching. Before his death, Zhen Mei had revealed that Wen Zongyu’s immortality relied on the ashes. Determined to protect Zhuo Yichen, Bai Jiu decided to break through the barrier. Wen Zongyu began absorbing the ashes to restore his power.

Zhuo Yichen told Zhao Yuanzhou that while the barrier could block physical bodies, it couldn’t isolate demon power. He transferred both his own demon power and Li Lun’s to Zhao Yuanzhou, urging him to break the barrier. Wen Zongyu warned that destroying the barrier would mean death for both him and Zhuo Yichen, causing Zhao Yuanzhou to hesitate. In the dungeon, Bai Jiu endured the corrosive effects of the barrier as he inched closer to the altar of ashes.

Just as Zhuo Yichen was on the brink of collapse, Bai Jiu overturned the altar, scattering the ashes. At the same moment, Zhao Yuanzhou unleashed his power, believing he had sacrificed both Zhuo Yichen and Wen Zongyu. Yet moments later, Zhuo Yichen suddenly appeared before him. Zhao Yuanzhou was puzzled by Zhuo Yichen’s newfound immunity to his unique technique. Recalling Wen Zongyu’s claim about phoenix-like rebirth, Zhao Yuanzhou deduced that someone had destroyed the environment necessary for his regeneration.

That person must have been familiar with Wen Zongyu. Both men simultaneously thought of Bai Jiu. Zhao Yuanzhou handed Zhuo Yichen the Bi Fang feather gifted by Bai Jiu, instructing him to check on Bai Jiu. Zhao Yuanzhou would return to the Demon-Catching Bureau to await further news.
