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.
The two fighting Martial Monarchs looked at each other and smiled.
They were different from those Martial Monarchs from the Upper Three Heavens that strengthened themselves using spirit medicines and other resources. For them, they managed to achieve what they were today because of time and their own hard work. Of course, the countless killings that they performed couldn't be excluded either!
This was why they were very indifferent towards life and death. The only thing that they couldn't let go of were their descendants. Their descendants were the reason why they were fighting today.
Right now, dying together was probably the best conclusion for the both of them!
Not only could they account to their descendants in this way, they could also account to themselves.
This was why they weren't feeling desolate. On the contrary, they were very calm and felt as if their restraints had been removed. Everything was finally over!
