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.
Two thousand kilometers away, a man and a woman were flying away as far as they could. They were like shooting stars that swept across the night sky.
They were Chu Feiling and Yang Ruolan!
This married couple was extremely anxious. In reality, they were riding horses. However, their horses weren't strong or fit enough to cover thousands of kilometers. This was why their horses lost their strength when they were only a few hundred kilometers into the journey.
Whenever that happened, they would find a nearby town or city to purchase new horses at exorbitant prices before they continued on their journey. If they were caught in the wilderness, they had no choice but to use their powers to fly!
In three days, the two of them had traveled more than three thousand kilometers!
They were still two thousand kilometers away from the Heavenly Sword Peak and Lake of Death! Given their cultivations, the speed at which they were traveling at was astonishing!
