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.
Just as Ji Mo and Luo Kedi charged at the bottleneck again, Chu Yang grasped two water droplets between his fingers at lightning speed and snatched them out of the Nine Tribulations Space. His hand flicked towards them.
One water droplet went into Ji Mo's mouth and the other into Luo Kedi's!
Chu Yang saw clearly that in this short span of him flicking his hand and the water droplets entering the two men's mouths, one-third of the droplets had actually already evaporated!
"No wonder the Sword Spirit said that this thing mustn't be taken out at all costs!" Chu Yang felt some belated fear welling up in him. In just this quickest of moments, they had already evaporated this much... If he had really taken them out just like that, wouldn't there be nothing left at all in just a second?
Both Ji Mo and Luo Kedi were already at the final and most critical stage.
