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.
"What's wrong?" Wei Wuyan asked, "Didn't you know that what you're doing is defying the natural order?"
"What do you mean?" Chu Yang frowned. He had been doing this all along, and he didn't feel at all that what he was doing was against the natural order.
Wei Wuyan sighed, "I'm not surprised at your sword movements nor your ability to defeat them. I'm also not surprised at the way you battle, but I'm surprised at how strong your heart is!"
"How strong my heart is?" Chu Yang repeated.
"Because just now, you're definitely not fighting with your whole heart for one purpose! And neither for multiple purposes!" Wei Wuyan said, "You've devoted all your heart in battling, comprehending your sword movements and understanding how your opponents attacked you, all at the same time!"
Wei Wuyan's eyes almost bulged out of his eye sockets. "Do you understand what I mean?"
