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.
Although Wan Renjie heard his brother's words, he didn't prepare his sword! He only raised his head to gaze at Wei Wuyan, who had fixed himself in the high air and using his palms to slowly draw a few circles to lay a defense shield in front of him.
Then, his palms intersected before his chest. A faint sound of wind and thunder could be heard coming from within his palms!
Cheng Duying sighed. He held up his Life and Death Dagger and flew up to the mountain hill, ready to provide assistance at any moment.
The sword spirit said, "Do you realize something?"
Chu Yang said, "What?"
The sword spirit said, "At this level, it's a battle of wits and a contest of strength; Wei Wuyan's grasp of battle strategies is already perfect."
Chu Yang thought for some time and asked, "What do you mean?"
