Transcending the Nine Heavens

The sword's edge power surged out relentlessly! The wave of power continued surging in an extremely reckless way without any respect for any form of life around it. It would have pushed Chu Yang all the way to the top if it was left to its own devices.

"That's enough!" The sword spirit finally spoke up with a domineering voice and restrained it. Regardless of whether it was the sword spirit or Chu Yang who had been worried about the unstable state, they were powerless against the might of the sword edge. Using force to stop it was not an option...

Among the nine fragments of the Nine Tribulations Sword, the domineering sword edge was considered as the lawless one!

Despite the warning of the sword spirit, the sword edge continued to push with all its might! However, the moment the sword spirit was about to go berserk, it stopped. At that point, Chu Yang's cultivation state had reached the peak of a second grade Sword Great Master!

In such a situation, the only thing the sword spirit was able to do was sigh.

Apart from dealing with the aftermath, he really had no way of stopping its rampage! The sword edge had always been aggressive. In fact, if one were to resist its force, it would have resulted in having an adverse effect!

Chu Yang woke up from the mysterious sword state and let out a deep breath. The four verses of the sword edge for uniting the sword body with sword technique suddenly appeared in his mind.

Use momentum in order to lead the sword energy. Utilise the sword energy to actuate the movements of the sword. Follow up again by using sword movement to fuel the momentum and the cycle will continue. All of the steps will work in harmony until the moment that the sword edge tastes blood!

A sword move is violent and tyrannical! It is… arrogant even in the face of the heavens and the earth!

This is the true meaning of this sword!

The sword technique that the sword spirit had demonstrated not only contained madness but also violence and endless solitude… Chu Yang frowned as his eyebrows furrowed together and became lost in his thought. It seemed as though it demonstrated an eternity of loneliness caused by immortality.

However, Chu Yang felt as though it would not be possible to achieve such a state in a short period of time.

As he breathed slowly, he gradually opened his eyes and pushed the dirt and rocks back into their original place. However, as he lifted the blocks up, Chu Yang let out an "oh". He was so surprised that he almost dropped the boulder on his feet.

When did I become so strong? I am able to lift this thousand pound block feels as though it weighed nothing at all.

He inadvertently looked at his dantian and was shocked!

If his dantian had been a tiny puddle before, it was now a large pond! It felt as though it was filled with energy as the waves in his dantian were moving freely!

He tried to shift his energy level back into the eighth grade Martial Master barrier which now felt surprisingly easy. Chu Yang's eyes involuntarily widened. He continued to direct his energy past the ninth grade Martial Master without any restrictions...

He was shaken that had been able to advance to first grade Martial Great Master…

At last…

"F*!" He was finally blocked when he tried to pass third grade Martial Great Master. Chu Yang finally jumped.

However, he had jumped forgetting that he was holding onto a large boulder. His jump left him more than ten feet high in the air while holding it before he controlled his landing and landed back on the ground…

It was as though he was in a dream as he placed the blocks back into their original location. With the last block, he began to twist his body and unintentionally formed a flirtatious pose, hitting it with his butt. The force generated sent the heavy block flying into the air before it dropped seamlessly into the last empty spot!

"Oh god… In the blink of an eye, I have advanced to Martial Great Master already? Not only that but I am now a second grade Martial Great Master?" Chu Yang scratched his head. He bit his arm hard. The sharp pain gave Minister Chu a rude awakening, "It's real!"

I broke through!

Even more, I jumped!

Chu Yang walked out on cloud nine. As he walked, he looked around and could not help but be startled.

He saw Gu Du Xing looking at the sky with a serious countenance. Luo Ke Di and Rui Bu Tong also had extremely serious appearances. It was as if there was something that made them very pensive…

As for Ji Mo…

Ji Mo was lying on the ground. His clothes were tattered and his face was battered as laid on the ground like a pig. He also tried to open his swollen eyes and looked up at the sky with shock…

Chu Yang was stunned!

What is this? He followed they gaze and could not help but looked at the sky. But he could only see blue sky and white clouds with whistling cold wind…

There was nothing unusual.

"What's going on with you guys?" Chu Yang curiously asked. Something major must have happened in order for all four of them to have such strange faces! Chu Yang was absolutely certain about this. However, he did not notice anything different anywhere; this truly annoyed him…

"Something major just happened!" Gu Du Xing's gaze remained fixed at the sky as if he was stubbornly searching for something in the heavens.

"Something major?" He looked at Luo Ke Di and company nodding repeatedly. Ji Mo, who was lying on the ground, was also nodding like a pecking chicken. Chu Yang was extremely confused.

"The Nine Tribulations Sword master… has found the second Nine Tribulation Sword fragment!" Gu Du Xing said somberly, "In other words, the second Nine Tribulations Sword fragment has returned."

"Nine Tribulations Sword master… Nine Tribulations Sword? Ah!" Chu Yang was startled. He almost bit his tongue as he stood there dumbfounded. Almost immediately, he felt blood rushing to his brain.

"Yes!" The four nodded simultaneously. All four gazes turned to Chu Yang at once. This was, however, with the exception of Ji Mo, whose eyes were puffy from being beaten by Gu Du Xing and were unable to even open. While the other three's eyes widened as big as those of oxen…

"How do you… know?" Chu Yang stuttered.

"Stop acting stupid!" Gu Du Xing rolled his eyes, "Each time the Nine Tribulations Sword master finds a fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword, the entire sky of the Nine Heavens would change in appearance. This is definitely a sign…"

"Sign?" Chu Yang's eyes rolled; he almost collapsed. He almost blurted out: Brothers, you must keep my secret. This is not a joking matter…

Fortunately, I had not said anything yet…!

"Don't you even know about this?" Gu Du Xing looked at him condescendingly, "It's a pity that you don't even know about the Nine Tribulations Sword master and yet you are a person of the Nine Heavens continents!"

"Is he famous?" When Minister Chu asked this question, a smile appeared behind his eyes. Being in a position where he was praised and admired was far too satisfying.

"More than just famous!" All four of them said in unison. Each one gave Chu Yang a disdainful look, "That Nine Tribulations Sword master! That Nine Tribulations Sword master… is the idol of all of the Nine Heavens continents! My god, I can't believe you don't know about it."

"Idol?" Chu Yang was internally prideful, but he asked in surprise, "Is he that powerful? Is he also your idol?"

"Of course!" The four called out in unison.

The unsurprising answers of the four caused Minister Chu to feel drunk with praise. In a dizzying haze, he asked, "This person is very powerful?"

"Not just powerful!" Ji Mo said with a twisted face, "He is the king of assholes that should be chopped a thousand times over. I was being kicked out of the Middle Three Heavens just to come here to train because of that jerk! If I ever see him, I will give him a beating no matter what! I am just afraid that I wouldn't be able to beat him…"

"Ack…" The edge of Chu Yang's eyes twitched.

"Yes! This Nine Tribulations Sword master is a punk who just wants to incite chaos! The moment he shows himself, the world will no longer be at peace!" Luo Ke Di said angrily, "This guy is a real son of a b*tch!"

Chu Yang's face turned black.

"However, the Nine Tribulations Sword is an item that everyone who uses swords like us dreams of." Gu Du Xing remained focused. But before Chu Yang's mood improved, he added, "Unfortunately, I don't know which punk managed to get it by some sort of dumb luck. What a waste. If it had fallen into my hands…"

Rui Bu Tong nodded repeatedly, "Right, right. It is just dumb luck… how irritating. If he's lucky, that's fine. However, but it seems that he wants hell to break loose and chaos to reign. Who has ever had it easy in this world? Everyone is struggling to become better and this punk is going to get to sit on everyone's head just because of a sword and some dumb luck…"

Chu Yang's shoulders dropped; he said unconsciously, "I really want to kill and chop up some people."

"We do, too!" The four said together, "In particular, we are most interested in the Nine Tribulations Sword master."

Minister Chu's eyes widened as if he had suddenly discovered a new continent. He said, "Whoa! Ji Mo! Hey… my pitiful third brother! What's wrong with you? You look as though you have been raped by a bear…"

Ack, time to use the change the subject technique.

"Ah… I was not raped by a bear, but it was something pretty similar…" Ji Mo cried out loudly and looked up, "Big brother, this is all your fault…" He suddenly widened his eyes and opened his mouth in shock. He called out with a hoarse voice, "Woah… woah… woah… hey, hey, hey, this… I am seeing a demon…"

He shouted in a hoarse voice. His two swollen eyes opened as if there was some sort of miracle that had just happened.

"What is it?" Chu Yang asked in surprised.

At the same time, the other three also discovered something strange with Chu Yang.

"Ack… ack…" Gu Du Xing took three steps back in disbelief!

"Woah…" Luo Ke Di's butt plopped right down to the ground; he was stunned!

"Woah…" Rui Bu Tong's whole body staggered; he was at a loss for words!

"What is it?" Chu Yang frowned.

"You broke through again…" Ji Mo spoke up. He pinched himself and yelled out in pain. Ji Mo jumped right up. He was lying down, but he sat up straight. He began to breathe heavily as he ground his teeth, "There is no heavenly justice! There is no heavenly justice…"

Chu Yang finally understood what was going on. He stood triumphantly with his nose in the air and said humbly, "Ah, I accidentally broke through a few grades. It's nothing. I only went from seventh grade Martial Master to second grade Martial Great Master. It's not worth mentioning… not worth mentioning."

He smiled from ear to ear, "Compared to you heavenly talents of great clans from Middle Three Heavens, such a speed… is embarrassing…"

"There is no heavenly justice…" Ji Mo and Luo Ke Di called out bitterly, "Being able to have such quick breakthroughs... There is really no heavenly justice. After breaking through, you also deliberately poked fun at us. There is no heavenly justice…"

Chu Yang laughed loudly.

After learning that Ji Mo had brought it upon himself to fight with Gu Du Xing because Chu Yang became enlightened in the way of martial arts after fighting with Gu Du Xing, Chu Yang was filled with even more joy.
