"Ling Chen Asks, Master of the Nine Heavens Sword" tells the story of Ling Chen, who once reached the pinnacle of the Sword Realm and was only one step away from the Sword God. When he entered the Sword God realm, he was betrayed by his best friends and Taoist companions. A trace of his residual soul was placed in the sword, and he woke up in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Swords five hundred years later. At this time, all his cultivation was lost, but his knowledge of swordsmanship, combat experience and strong soul power were still there.
After waking up, Ling Chen started to deal with the bandits in Black Wind Village and resumed his spiritual practice. He rescued the Lin family brothers and sisters in Qingfeng City, helped them resolve the family crisis, frightened the Li family and Wang family, and became the force that the Lin family relied on. Later, he joined the Liuyun Sect as a handyman, low-key to explore the secrets of the sect, and unexpectedly quelled the abnormal movement of the prison-suppressing demon sword in the forbidden area of the back mountain. He showed his amazing strength and became a worshiper of the sect.
In order to trace the traces of his old enemies Zhao Tianlei and Su Mei, Ling Chen went to the Eastern Region. On the way, he offended the disciples of the Tianyan Holy Sect. He also met the mysterious girl Su Muxue at the Tianyan Mountain celebration banquet. Her aura similar to that of Su Mei aroused his doubts. From Qingfeng City to Liuyun Sect, and then to the Tianyan Holy Sect of the Eastern Region, Ling Chen uncovered the changes of five hundred years step by step. On the road of pursuing the truth and revenge, he used the sword in his hand to rebuild his peak and continue to write his legend.
