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.

The translation quality for the earlier chapters by Walk the Jianghu were very high quality. There was a lot of noise made about Novel Saga's work, but having read it myself I have had no difficulties. The only real gripe I've had with it is that the translator sometimes appears to have used the English equivalent of a word, even when that equivalent is... outlandish, to say the least. But I consider that a very minor problem, and it only happens rarely.
As for the story, I would also rate it rather highly. There's a good balance between cultivation, politicking and scheming; although it is rather light on fighting, surprisingly.
I am currently also following another work by the same author, Realms In The Firmament, and the similarities are obvious. If you enjoy that story, you will probably enjoy TTNH as well.
I will refrain from ****** a judgement on the romance so far, mostly because there has been very little of it. The only thing I can say about it really is that there are several love interests, but the MC remains devoted to the primary one. The novel is classified as a harem, and certainly there are relevant women, but as of yet there's been rather limited progress.
As for flaws, they are the same as most WNs suffer from, in my mind. The stories are incredibly long, which is both a good and a bad thing. For casual entertainment it is excellent; one novel can hold you over for several days. But it also causes the story to stagnate relatively often. Obvious incoming plot points are delayed by several chapters of content that, while entertaining, is mostly irrelevant.
It's difficult for me to judge WNs, because to use the same standards I apply to the more classical type of novel can't really be used.
Overall, I would not classify it as an inventive story. It is done very well, however, ****** for an entertaining story with decent characters, which is also in no way hampered by the translation quality.
So.. yeah. It's pretty good.
