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.
"Silly girl," Feng Yurou said in a soft voice, before adding, thoughtfully, "If this is the case… It's good as well. To have something on your mind, and that it's such a devoted, regretless love… Having such an obsession might rather be a good thing for practicing martial arts… This obsession will guide you, step by step, into the path of sentiment."
"The path of sentiment?" Wu Qianqian's beautiful eyes brightened.
Feng Yurou looked fondly at Wu Qianqian, and said, "People often say that nature is ruthless! This might not be entirely untrue, as the vicissitudes of change, life, death, aging and sickness, all seem so ordinary. Even if billions should suffer at the same time, nature would not open its eyes to interfere. The laws of nature will only run indifferently and mercilessly… Even if you are filial to the extreme, even if you are heroic than others in this world… In the eyes of nature, you are but a grain of dust."
