Chu Yang, the Ninth Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, sacrificed almost everything he had for the sake of improving his martial arts, including the love of his life. After spending three years locating the fifth fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword, he was ambushed by all sides at that very place. Mortally injured with no means of escape, Chu Yang executed a sacrificial technique by plunging the Nine Tribulations Sword into his very own heart. “With the blood of my heart, ten thousand tribulations will collapse!” After witnessing the death of all his ambushers, Chu Yang’s vision began to darken. At a distance, moments before his death, he saw the mastermind who had plotted his downfall — Mo Tian Ji. With that, his eyes finally closed. However, with a start, Chu Yang once again awoke to find that he had returned to when he was sixteen years of age! Furthermore, the Sword Spirit of the Nine Tribulations Sword now resided within his Dantian, the energy center of his body! From that very moment, Chu Yang would then begin to right all of his past regrets, and carve his very own legend by fulfilling his destiny as the final Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, and defeating the Heavenly Devils beyond the realm of the Nine Heavens Continent.
Chu Yang and Tie Butian walked out of the vault side by side and realised that the sky had already turned dark.
In front of the palace was Wu Qianqian, who was holding two horses waiting. As soon as she saw Chu Yang emerge, she was filled with joy. She hastily said, "Minister Chu, please make some time to come back to Bu Tian Pavilion. Something has happened!"
"Bu Tian Pavilion is in trouble? What happened?" Chu Yang frowned.
"A group of powerful people clothed in black requested for us to hand over the person we captured the other day." Wu Qianqian said worriedly, "even though we spent a long time explaining things, they refused to believe anything we said… We are currently on the verge of a physical confrontation… If you were still out and we were unable to find you, it is likely that this encounter might not end very well."
