Chapter 1: If there is a next life, I shall dance with you across the world
This issue has troubled Chu Yang for a long time
Chu Yang felt a deep sense of melancholy and bitterness in his heart
I still remember that time when Mo Qingwu was rejected for the last time by herself. Heartbroken and in despair, she lost her senses and was ambushed on her way home. A generation's beauty finally perished.
Everyone hurriedly stepped back, their faces filled with terror as they gazed at the neatly arranged half weapons at Chu Yang's feet, cold sweat streaming down their backs. They never expected the power of the Nine Tribulations Sword to be so terrifying!
This is the only sword through which he can unleash his full power. Upon first encountering the sword technique, he realized that he could wield this sword. However, such a sword requires the sacrifice of one's own life to activate it
These individuals are all skilled strategists. They understand that although they are currently exhausted and at the end of their rope, whoever steps forward will have to face a mutual destruction strike, and no one is willing to be the one to take the fall. They can only hope that someone will foolishly rush in to meet their demise. However, no one is foolish enough to do so, which is why they all coincidentally cease their actions at this moment
Light Dance, do you know how much I regretted leaving you in order to cultivate the Three Calamities and the Severing of Emotions
Chuyang smiled mockingly as he slowly sat down. Although his face remained expressionless and he did not utter a word, his heart was filled with confusion
Today's situation is a purely deadlock
Chu Yang's gaze had become somewhat blurred: "You three kings... also desire the Nine Calamity Sword?"
At this moment, his heart was no longer under control, nor did he wish to control it
Whoever obtains the Nine Calamity Sword will be invincible in the world! Within the Nine Calamity Sword lies the great secret of invincibility! According to legend, the power of the Nine Calamity Sword goes even beyond this
Chu Yang remained lost in thought, sitting still and motionless, his gaze fixed on a certain point ahead, as if embodying an ancient and eternal desolation, with blood-stained strands of hair floating before his forehead
The figure in my mind dances more and more intensely, forming a swirling red shadow, ethereal and unpredictable, yet it has turned into a vast expanse of crimson silk. At the same time, a hauntingly beautiful and melancholic song emerges softly from within the red shadow
In the distance, three directions, three kinds of radiance rise simultaneously, transforming in the air into three golden shadows! They shine dazzlingly, exuding an air of unparalleled arrogance.
Such a person, with such a disposition, regardless of how high their cultivation or how numerous they are; even if they could kill me ten thousand times, they are still unworthy to be my enemy
This is the only verse of the ballad about the Nine Calamity Sword that has been passed down through the ages. Its origins are no longer traceable. The Nine Calamity Sword has always been merely a legend, and no one ever expected that one day it would truly appear before them
His gaze became resolute and unwavering
Chu Yang let out a furious howl! He suddenly stood up, his long black hair flying wildly! The hair tie shattered! He erupted into a frenzied rage!
Phantom Golden Light, Rule the Land!
The three master kings were taken aback and swiftly darted outside! Their composure upon arrival was worlds apart from this moment! The elegant and graceful demeanor they once had had long since vanished without a trace
Today marks only the fifth day since I entered this place three days ago! Just as I found the Fenglei Platform, I encountered this ambush!
Nine Calamities, Nine Heavens; One Sword to Annihilate the World; A Thousand Autumns, Honoring the Ages, Beyond the Nine Heavens!
Without waiting for anyone to respond, he let out a cold, sharp laugh and slowly said: "Alright! I will let you see the Nine Calamity Sword!"
Upon hearing the news, I rushed over immediately, but ultimately I was one step too late. Although I later exterminated all the members of that noble family who had harmed Mo Qingwu, leaving no one alive, the beauty can never be brought back to life
Life and death accompany each other to the heights of the heavens
Light as a dream, the dream also drifts
In the distance, a person in white stood dumbfounded, staring this way, with a face full of disbelief
This is the only set of illustrated books from ancient times to the present!
Nine Calamity Sword, oh Nine Calamity Sword, what is your secret?
That figure in the flowing red attire, so stunningly beautiful, with every glance and every turn... all exude unparalleled charm, dancing lightly and gracefully within her own heart, each time she looks back at herself, it carries a depth of affection like the sea
Destroy oneself, destroy the Nine Calamity Sword! Destroy the enemy!
Chu Yang's pupils contracted, and he let out a bitter laugh, weakly gazing at the three golden shadows in the sky, feeling a chill in his heart. He never expected the opponent's true killing move to reveal itself only at this moment
Surrounded by dozens of masters, all aware that this sword strike was extraordinary, they each brought forth their utmost skills, striving to resist this attack with all their might. Every individual swayed, feeling the weight of the weapons in their hands, struggling to maintain their grip.
Chu Yang's gaze suddenly became distant and melancholic, filled with a sense of longing
Mo Qingwu, a woman who breaks through emotions with Chu Yang!
How could the matter of the Nine Calamity Sword being in my possession leak out?
... ...
Blood was flowing, and Chu Yang clearly sensed that his life was rapidly slipping away. Throughout his life, he had pursued the martial way, experiencing love, breaking free from love, transcending love to reach a state of indifference, and ultimately extinguishing all emotions. In this moment, on the brink of death, he had thought that his only regret would be not achieving the supreme realm he had sought for his entire life. However, to his surprise, at this very moment, a figure he believed he had long forgotten suddenly emerged in his mind.
At the heart of Chu Yang, the tip of the Nine Calamities Sword suddenly emitted a dazzling brilliance, shining so brightly that it was blinding to the eyes
Chu Yang's terrifying laughter echoed as the Nine Tribulations Sword swung, seemingly conjuring a massive crown! The overwhelming pressure spread like a dark cloud! ... Wherever the sword light pointed, screams of agony resounded, and blood arrows shot up one after another, with heads rolling from their necks, as if a cart full of rotten watermelons had been overturned
One is merely a Martial Honor, and although there is only one level separating it from the King level, that level is as different as heaven and earth
With a swing of the Nine Calamity Sword, a streak of light arched outward! As the arc shot forth, countless rays of cold light surged forth! ... These countless rays of cold light seemed to carry the most ancient desolation of the universe.
With a loud bang, a brilliant sword light soared into the sky, turning the entire heavens into a silvery white! The three kings barely had time to defend themselves, and before they could even let out a scream, they were reduced to ashes!
Ancient divine artifact! The foremost divine artifact of the Ninefold Heaven Continent!
This is a poem titled "The Night of Commitment" by Mo Qingwu. ... I still remember, at that time, Mo Qingwu's eyes were filled with tears, her gaze was sorrowful and haunting, she ...! ... She had long known that she was using her feelings to practice her skills, yet she still plunged into my embrace like a moth to a flame, allowing herself to burn freely!
Here lies the Ninefold Heaven Continent, in the upper three heavens, a place of absolute desolation, the Wind and Thunder Platform
In the face of such a multitude of skilled individuals, even though he has reached the end of his resources, he remains extraordinarily proud and defiant
With his eyes already closed, Chu Yang seemed to hear a faint voice in the void, imbued with weariness and joy, as if it had been waiting for thousands of years, a sense of relief washing over. It spoke softly: "... the nine tribulations have come to naught, life and death remain calm; the blue sky can still be mended, why wait for the next life... sigh, I have finally waited for this..."
Chu Yang was lost in thought, and the usually cold and hard corners of his mouth revealed a trace of a gentle and sorrowful smile ... His blood-stained long hair fluttered in the wind
Completely unexpected
To the utmost of emotion, to the utmost of the sword! To extinguish emotion and immerse oneself in the sword, to enter martial arts through the way of the sword, to seek the way of heaven through martial arts, to pay the price of lifelong solitude, to measure the world with widespread slaughter, yet ultimately still unable to master the Nine Tribulations Sword, nor to achieve the Nine Heavens Divine Skill
No wonder I am in such a miserable state
This is the ultimate move of the Nine Calamity Sword! By sacrificing one's own heart's blood, one can awaken the sword spirit! It is an absolute technique that leads to mutual destruction with the enemy! This move can even allow one to slay opponents who are significantly stronger, surpassing several levels!
Not suffering... lightly dancing, you suffer, yet do not feel the pain, nowadays... I am in great pain! I regret it so much!
A trace of regret quietly spread in his heart, like smoke, instantly engulfing his entire soul
Ninefold Heaven, amidst the sea of clouds, Wind and Thunder Platform, a line of sky
Mo Tianji! ? '' Chu Yang's eyes were fixed, and he finally understood. Why his covert actions had been ambushed, and why all his attacks had been anticipated and intercepted!
Chuyang, possessing the Nine Calamity Sword, a supreme treasure of the world, is nothing short of a waste in your hands. How many years have passed, and you have made no progress at all; you are merely squandering a heavenly artifact! It would be best to hand it over...
As Chu Yang fell, he stumbled! His gaze swept disdainfully around him. Looking around for dozens of yards, there was not a single person standing! The once formidable experts, the past glories and honors, had all turned into a ground full of corpses under the unmatched power of the Nine Tribulations Sword!
"Wrong, we do not want the Nine Calamity Sword. What we want is for you to die!" The three smiled simultaneously, their demeanor poised: "However, taking over the Nine Calamity Sword as a side benefit can also be considered an unexpected gain. A great gain!"
It turned out that I did not truly break my feelings..." Chu Yang said to himself with a hint of self-mockery in the corner of his mouth
A series of loud clashing sounds erupted, and all the weapons surrounding him were neatly severed by a single stroke
Lightly dancing, you are not satisfied, you have regrets, otherwise, how could there be tears at the corners of your eyes? ... On the face of the beauty who has already lost her breath, suddenly there fall those two drops of clear tears ... ... Accompanying the forced smile she wore at the moment of her death to avoid her own sorrow, it is so tragically beautiful ... ...
On the Wind and Thunder Platform, the sound of the wind wails, as if weeping and lamenting, seemingly repeating Chu Yang's words: If there is a next life... If there is a next life... Accompanying you, dancing across the world...
A cacophony of shouts echoed from all directions
They never expected that this Poison Sword Martial Sovereign could actually unleash this move
This signifies the appearance of three royal-level martial artists
Nine Calamity Sword! Sever the entanglements of the passionate traveler!
Yet it can still deliver the final blow! Destruction!
Kill! Chu Yang suddenly raised his head, a murderous intent surging wildly in his eyes. With a furious shout, the Nine Calamity Sword in his hand suddenly unleashed thousands of sword lights, resembling a band of light that connected like lightning across the nine heavens.
Lightly dance, wait for me
The shining blade of the Nine Calamity Sword reflected the sunlight from the sky, as if drawing a long rainbow in mid-air. All who witnessed this scene felt a surge of passion in their hearts, wishing fervently that the divine object were in their own hands
Having spent three years thoroughly investigating, I finally determined that a fragment of the Ninth Calamity Sword was located at the Thunder Platform of the Upper Three Heavens. After enduring countless hardships, I finally found an opportunity to risk my life and come to the Upper Three Heavens. Yet, why is it that upon my arrival here, I encountered such a formidable ambush?
That woman with the elegance of orchids and the heart of a hibiscus... Chu Yang pondered with a sense of melancholy, feeling an unbearable bitterness in his heart. It is only when life reaches its end that one realizes the preciousness of true feelings... Yet for himself, there is no turning back...
The Nine Heavens is the name of this continent. Throughout history, no swordsmanship has ever dared to use these three characters as its name, yet this Nine Tribulations Sword Technique directly adopts the name "Nine Heavens"!
In the final moments of life, you come to disturb our reunion! Damn it!
Chu Yang suddenly opened his eyes and growled, "Why? Why is there nothing? Qing Wu... and the books"
One has always been known for their secretive movements; who knows their plans
Why? Why?!
I can only sense in these eyes an infinite sorrow, an infinite despair, an infinite anger, and... an infinite murderous intent
In the midst of darkness, it seems that on an endless expanse of pristine snow, snowflakes fall from the vast sky, and the earth is cloaked in silver. A graceful red figure dances lightly within this scene, seemingly welcoming him, yet also appearing anxious for Chu Yang. Her face is indistinct, but the gentle, lingering, selfless gaze filled with deep affection is so clear. Her dance is enchanting, growing increasingly intense, as if the entire universe is captivated by a blood-like, haunting beauty. Her face remains unclear, yet that gentle, lingering, selfless gaze filled with deep affection is so vivid. The elegance of her dance intensifies, sweeping across the heavens and the earth, embodying a beauty as haunting and cold as blood.
The Nine Calamity Sword, a single point of cold light with a myriad of brilliance
This is a poem specially composed by the renowned talent Xue Lei Han, inspired by Mo Qing Wu's deep affection for Chu Yang.
The Nine Calamity Sword, what harm is there in slaughtering the world!
The Nine Calamity Sword suddenly shone intensely, as if a sun had appeared out of nowhere. The fierce sword energy erupted violently, and the overwhelming force propelled Chu Yang's entire body into the air
Chu Yang's body slowly descended from the sky, gently falling down like a withered leaf drifting in late autumn, landing in the dust, a faint yet warm smile on his face, murmuring: "Qing Wu, if there is a next life, I shall dance with you across the world!"
But in just a flash, it soared straight up into the sky, and then instantly vanished without a trace
With sword in hand, travel a thousand miles; do not ask, my lord
The heartless swordsman, the heartless swordsman, if a swordsman has feelings, what kind of swordsman is he? ... The way of the sword, the martial way, the way of heaven, ultimately all are heartless ...? ... Yet in this moment of life and death, why am I so shaken?
And now, Qingwu, you have ascended to the heavens, while I remain in the mortal realm... However, I will soon be able to accompany you through life and death... for all eternity!
Two drops of clear tears, yet in that moment, they shattered their own heart into pieces! From then on, this heart remains sealed away!
The crowd around erupted in agreement, and immediately swords and blades were raised, closing in on Chu Yang.
A sea of blood and mountains of bones dance enchantingly
Nine Calamity Sword ! Nine Heavens Sword Technique ! One Sword !
They were unaware that they had interrupted Chu Yang's memories and Mo Qingwu's song and dance, provoking Chu Yang into a complete rage, unleashing all the potential of his body! This is the power of life, the fury of the soul! This strength even far surpasses his peak period!
With the sound of conversation, the other two individuals appeared together. The three of them, all dressed in wide sleeves and flowing garments, came riding the wind. Their demeanor was graceful, and their expressions were calm.
Who would dare to use such swordsmanship
The Nine Calamity Sword's sword soul strike, within the range of its power, can directly annihilate even the heavens and the earth, let alone merely three king-level martial artists
Good swordsmanship, truly worthy of the Poison Sword Martial Sovereign! However, these past three days are not a place where a mere Poison Sword Martial Sovereign can act recklessly!" One person said gently, "It is a pity that I cannot engage in a fair battle with you, which is quite regrettable!
With a swift sound, the golden blade cleaved through the wind and came straight at him. Chu Yang was momentarily dazed, and instinctively raised his sword to block. His thoughts were still attuned to the ethereal voice of Mo Qingwu... In this life, it is over. Qingwu, before I die, let me listen to your voice a little longer...
The Nine Calamity Sword, when the winds and clouds gather, it is the emperor
I charged forward continuously more than ten times, and each time, I was blocked by someone! The places I chose were all blind spots! Logically speaking, there should be no reason for me not to break through!
Three royal figures! What a grand gesture!
Chu Yang was also filled with doubts. The Nine Calamity Sword, indeed, he had obtained the Nine Calamity Sword, and step by step, he had found the five segments of the sword body. However, he was disappointed to discover that the power of the Nine Calamity Sword was not as great as he had imagined or as depicted in the illustrations. Moreover, there was always a clear barrier between himself and the Nine Calamity Sword. Whether he poured his blood into it or sought to comprehend it with sincerity, there was not the slightest effect. Why was this? Whether he poured his blood into it or sought to comprehend it with sincerity, there was not the slightest effect. Why was this?
It turns out to be him, with divine calculations and mysterious strategies.
Above, one can connect with the wind and thunder; entering and exiting, one finds a narrow path to the sky
That unparalleled beauty, in her final moments, gently lay in her own embrace and said to herself: "Chuyang, if there is a next life... if I can meet you again, I hope you can take a good look at me. I am more beautiful than the sword"
Everyone, let's go! Let's just take him down! As for the Nine Calamity Sword, we can discuss that slowly later!" One person shouted loudly, "Otherwise, if he recovers a bit, it will be our turn to go through a lot of trouble!
Is it a mistake of my own choosing? Or is this path fundamentally wrong? ... Or rather ...? ... My own ruthlessness has yet to align with the Nine Calamity Sword
Chu Yang stood with his sword, drenched in blood, his eyes coldly surveying the crowd before him, scrutinizing each individual one by one. Whenever his gaze landed on someone's face, that person would involuntarily tremble slightly.
Chu Yang smiled coldly, straightened his back, and said proudly: "It is a pity that you do not understand the Nine Tribulations Sword! You will never obtain it!"
The first move was not yet complete when the second move, filled with murderous intent, descended fiercely! The surging light was like the rising tide of the ocean, an overwhelming wave of lethal energy shooting out in all directions! Cries of agony erupted as a dozen formidable experts, capable of dominating a region, simultaneously exerted their utmost to resist, yet they were still drenched in blood, retreating in disarray!
Chu Yang suddenly found it somewhat amusing and couldn't help but smile wryly. Could it be that the secret of the Nine Tribulations Sword's invincibility lies in this? If so, what value does this continent's foremost divine artifact hold?
Just like the sword in his hand, it is imbued with the meaning of being unyielding and unbending
With a flash of sword light, Chu Yang abruptly reversed the Nine Calamities Sword and fiercely plunged it into his own heart! His eyes, devoid of any emotion, gazed at the three figures in the air as he shouted: "With my blood, I shall shatter the endless calamities! Master of the Nine Calamities Sword, invert the universe!"
The king descends, the world is at my mercy, I shall slaughter at will! I take and destroy as I please!
Looking around at the greedy gazes fixed on the Nine Calamity Sword, Chu Yang let out a bitter smile in his heart. You only know that obtaining this Nine Calamity Sword will make you invincible in the world, but do you have any idea how much I have sacrificed for this Nine Calamity Sword
This is the only memento that Qingwu has left for herself
Chuyang, you are on the brink of death; it is better to hand over the Nine Calamity Sword. We can allow you to keep your whole corpse!
With this sword drawn, one shall die
At the center of the Wind and Thunder Platform, on a slightly raised large stone, Chu Yang, dressed in black, was covered in blood, with disheveled hair. However, his face bore a perpetual indifference. The expression in his eyes remained as calm and steady as a rock. His body stood as straight as a spear.
Yet he faintly felt that it should not be limited to this... However, he no longer had the opportunity to uncover the true secret of the Nine Calamity Sword...
A graceful figure in red seems to flash in my mind, becoming increasingly clear. Slowly, the red sleeves flutter gently, and in the midst of it all, an ethereal melody seems to arise. That enchanting figure begins to dance slowly amidst a realm of hazy nothingness
The blades and swords are increasing, blood splatters out, pain gradually focuses from various parts of the body, finally interrupting the song and dance in the mind
Beneath his feet, within a radius of several hundred zhang, lay countless severed limbs and broken bodies, drenched in blood
Chu Yang, in a daze, reached out and touched something, only to find a handful of fragments. In an instant, his eyes were filled with rage!
Chuyang, hand over the Nine Calamity Sword! I will spare your life!
Who understands their own habits so well? Who is this hidden enemy?
Chu Yang wanted to smile bitterly, to mock himself, to... but in the end, he did nothing at all. He had already lost all his strength, and he had no time to think...
With three moves unleashed, this ground stained red with blood has once again transformed into a battlefield of slaughter! All of the dozens of attackers this time have, without exception, fallen into the pool of blood!
Then a dazzling light shot out from his heart, rising from the ground, flashing in the air, and suddenly scattering into a blinding rainbow that illuminated the entire world! It left all who beheld it wide-eyed as if blinded!
It is the Nine Calamity Sword Soul that autonomously kills, annihilating everything
Since death is inevitable, let us embrace it with the greatest passion and the most intense longing! For there, lies our beloved!
Yet at this moment, the Wind and Thunder Platform is shrouded in a stench of blood and a haze of despair
At this moment, everyone has a delusion: the current Chu Yang is absolutely uninjured! He is in a completely perfect state!
Lightly dancing! Unknown if I will meet you this time as I journey to the Yellow Springs
Although Chu Yang cannot fully unleash the true power of the Nine Tribulations Sword Technique, he has comprehended these few sword strikes for quite some time. The power of these strikes, while not as great as one might imagine, still far exceeds that of ordinary sword techniques
In this voice, the brief twenty characters seem to have undergone countless changes through the passage of time, so distant and unattainable...
Do you want the Nine Calamity Sword? Do you even deserve it?
"Chuyang, to die in your embrace, I am very content..." This was Mo Qingwu's last words...
Lightly dancing, regardless of whether in heaven or on earth, who can hinder our reunion? He stood with his sword, breathing heavily, yet gently closed his eyes. He was longing for the song and dance that replayed in his mind. However, it did not come to pass
They originally thought that Chu Yang was at the end of his rope, and it was the perfect moment to act boldly. Each person was contemplating how to deal with the Nine Calamity Sword after Chu Yang's death. How to seize it? If it fell into their hands, how to escape? While they were urgently devising strategies, Chu Yang suddenly struck with a sword! And its power was immense!
There is nothing left
Looking around at the crowd of experts who were merely shouting but not advancing, Chu Yang revealed a hint of a mocking smile on his face, proud and disdainful
However, after this outburst, Chu Yang has completely exhausted his energy and resources
Even so, the golden shadows manifested by their royal powers still flicker in the air, yet their lives have already been reduced to nothingness
He is now unable to fight any longer
The enchanting songs and dances in my mind gradually fade away, and the sound of Mo Qingwu seems to become increasingly ethereal: "In this life, I dance for you... for you I dance through countless lives... my heart remains unchanged despite a thousand twists... a myriad of deaths is still not painful... not painful..."
He had already sustained countless fatal injuries, yet he leaped up! In mid-air, blood gushed from all his wounds simultaneously, but he remained unmoved, his expression grave, and coldly shouted:
To never dance lightly in a lifetime, each dance brings a lifetime of suffering; in this life, I dance for you, even if it means dancing through a lifetime of hardship
With a loud bang, a sword pierced through Chu Yang's chest. A sharp pain shot through his heart as he looked down, and the jade pendant hanging around his neck shattered with a crack right before his eyes. In the center of the pendant, the character "dance" quietly fragmented into pieces.
Lightly dancing, do you know that if there is a next life, I would rather not cultivate any swordsmanship, would rather not seek any pinnacle, would rather not take revenge, just to be with you! In this world, what can compare to the satisfaction of your smile? Nothing!
He suddenly leaped up!
Nine Calamity Sword! The ancient fragrance of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood!
Chu Yang looked around and suddenly asked softly, "Do you all want the Nine Tribulations Sword?"
Chu Yang sighed softly, suspended in mid-air, and casually glanced around, only to discover a person he believed should never be here.
Even though he has already sustained a fatal injury
