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.

Meng Chaoran's mind continued to think about the past as his life was flashing before his eyes. Despite this, his body continued to move as quick as lightning. He didn't even flinch as he faced the brunt of the blizzard…
