I've moved your question to the HTC One M8 rooting forum.
Here you find a number of threads where you can learn how to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, and then install a custom rom to replace the mess that you've made of your phone by using Kingroot - you're not properly rooted at all. Kingroot exists to install its own bloatware - it's now on your phone eating resources for no reason.
The good news is that you can try to make a Titanium Backup of your apps and data first.
As for creating and using a swap partition - your phone isn't ram or processor limited, so I don't know what you've read that makes you want to do that here.
Once your phone is properly rooted and running correctly, if you still want to try making a swap partition I'll help somewhat with that - but I don't recommend it. It's unnecessary.

I thank you for your reply.I have unrooted and uninstalled kingroot but the problem is that am using Chinese HTC one m8 X-BO which have removable battery and RAM of 215 which makes my phone annoying,plus me being a game freak,erhh the pain.
I have searched online on how to root my phone the right way but no help
That is why I desperately installed kingroot to increase my RAM using kernel tuner.
If u know how to help me I will be very happy.
Thanks again for your will to help.

Ah, sorry, terrible situation.
OK, here's your other option - go back to Kingroot and correct it to SuperSU with "Super-Sume Pro"

If that's not available where you are, you can search the web, the author has an unsupported free copy.
Sadly without TWRP, you can't make a nandroid backup so you must proceed with extreme caution on your root activities.
You can try "Speed Up Swap (root)" but I can't guarantee it 100%

Remember that the swap mod can decrease your SD card lifetime so remember to make frequent backups to your pc.
Kernel Tuner is the first thing to try instead of the app above though.
