Transcending the Nine Heavens
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.
Step-by-Step Revelation
After listening to Tie Longcheng's story, the young lady's stared deeply into Chu Yang's eyes, with her gaze as sharp as a sword.
Tie Longcheng took a deep breath and continued, "As soon as I heard the three words 'Heavenly Armament Pavilion', the first thing that came to my head was the people who died in the wars and left their dead bodies on the battlefields! Do you have any idea how many people died in anguish in front of my very eyes? They were all Iron Cloud's heroes!"
It was then that Chu Yang finally understood why such a high ranking guest would come all the way here personally and even gave the order to blockade his shop. He thought, "My actions must have unintentionally reopened his old wounds!"
Although Tie Longcheng appeared relatively composed, Chu Yang could sense that this famed general was filled with sorrow and agony!
