After an unknown period of time, Li Yi finally passed out from exhaustion.

Ji Linger carried him on his back and returned him to his room.

For three days, she stayed here in silence until the moment he woke up.

Five days passed. He did not say a word, nor did he go out. Ji Linger brought him food.

Seven days later, he suddenly burst into tears, like a child, Ji Linger who was guarding the door rushed in.

On the tenth day.

When Ji Linger came to deliver the food as usual, she saw him walk out the door.

Ten days had passed, and his face was pale and devoid of blood. His clear eyes also revealed a turbid look, as if they had gone through many vicissitudes of life.

But for some reason, Ji Linger felt a unique aura coming from his body.

He still looked as thin as before, but he gave her a type of towering mountain-like figure that was also like a snowy pine tree at the peak of a snowy mountain as it stood tall and straight, and emitted an unspeakable unswerving determination.

He had changed.

He had grown.

In just ten short days, he had changed his personality.

Ji Linger walked forward: "Do you want to eat?"

Li Yi laughed: Thank you! For the past ten days, you have been accompanying me, telling me all those moving stories and thanking you for your food. "

Ji Linger's heart trembled. She didn't know why, but she felt a sense of loss, as if her heart was about to lose something.

After ten days, he was finally awake and no longer needed her to take care of him.

He was silent for a moment. Then he turned around and left.

Li Yi picked up the bowl of food, and while it was still warm, he very seriously finished the meal which did not look very delicious.

An hour later, he tidied himself up and hung the white spear on the wall. Then, he hurriedly left the room.

The streets of the capital were as bustling as ever, as if even a thousand years ago, they still hadn't been able to change the hubbub of this ancient city.

In the Chen family store.

From a distance, when Chen Meng saw the figure of Li Yi, he could not help but be astonished.

Li Yi walked over and smiled: "I've made you wait for a long time."

Chen Meng nodded and did not say much: "Are you free now?"

Li Yi shook his head: "Give me another two days of time." Although Qin Meng did not urge him to do so, he had never forgotten about it.

Leaving this place, he found a blacksmith shop on the street.

He still had more than three hundred crystals, and although it wasn't much, he was just barely able to buy an ordinary weapon.

A corner of the shop was in place, and the sound of metal clanging against metal echoed in the air. A scorching wave of air swept across the shop, and although the shop was small, there were many different types of weapons inside.

The owner was a middle-aged man around the age of thirty. He was tall and sturdy, and his muscles were like dragons that were hibernating. With a sweep of his eyes, he appeared to be very powerful.

Seeing that a customer had arrived, the owner stopped what he was doing, swept Li Yi with his gaze, and asked: "Little brother, what do you want?"

Li Yi replied: "Sword."

The shop owner nodded, walked to the side, and said with a smile, "There are eighteen types of swords, all of different shapes and sizes. The shop owner nodded, walked to the side, and said with a smile," There are eighteen types of swords, and all of different shapes and sizes.

Li Yi remained silent and continued to size up the swords.

The shopkeeper saw that he didn't say anything, so he stood there awkwardly and didn't say anything.

The azure colored long sword had a slender body with a verdant hilt. There were some inscriptions of dragons and phoenixes in the air, appearing extremely exquisite, this kind of sword was suitable for females.

It was a long white sword, broad and heavy.

Blue sword, long...

After a few minutes, he swept his gaze across all the swords and came to a decision.

He shook his head slightly. Although there were many swords here, they did not seem to be as many as he wanted.

Looking at his expression, the shop owner spoke again, "If little brother is not satisfied with these swords, we can customize your forging."

Li Yi sighed: "There's no time."

The shop owner paused, as if he did not want to let go of a guest. He squeezed out a smile and said, "There's still a sword here, maybe it's suitable. Would you like to take a look?"

Li Yi nodded, the shop owner turned and walked into the deeper parts of the store.

Just at this moment, Li Yi's line of sight unintentionally touched a corner. He saw a huge black sword, and his heart involuntarily shook, as his breathing hastened.

The huge black sword was about four feet long and about the size of a palm. It was about two fingers thick.

Li Yi's first thought was that he was shocked.

This black greatsword was far too similar to the greatsword in the mark.

The only difference was that the sword in front of him seemed to have already begun to decay. Many parts of the sword began to fall off, and its entire form seemed very creepy and ugly.

It was placed in a corner, looking somewhat lonely.

Li Yi subconsciously walked over and directly held the sword hilt. With a clank, he didn't manage to pick up the huge black sword as he wished.

He felt a sense of heaviness, as heavy as Mount Tai. It was as if what he held in his hand was not a sword, but rather a mountain.

Gritting his teeth, he tried to pick it up for the second time, but the result was the same.

Just as he was about to give it a third try, the shopkeeper had already walked out. He was holding an ornate sword case, and on the box were many beautiful patterns and diagrams.

However, when he saw Li Yi's actions, he was shocked: "What happened to you?"

Li Yi's face reddened, and she couldn't help but say, "Sorry, I wanted to take a look out of curiosity, but the result was …"

The shop owner was stunned and sighed, "I've put it away for a long time, but no one has ever been able to pick it up."

Li Yi was surprised: "This sword was forged by you as well?"

He shook his head. "No, three years ago, there was a young man who came here. This sword was placed by him in the shop."

Three years ago.

Li Yi's heart trembled again, his eyes flashed with a bright light, as though he had thought of something, "Could I ask the shop owner, do you remember what that person looked like?"

"He was dressed in black, plain clothes, a cloak, and a cloak. He was dressed like a swordsman, and the sky was very dark at the time. I could only see this, but I could not see what he looked like."

Swordsman!

Ripples arose in Li Yi's heart as he stood there dumbfounded.

Black plain clothes, cape, cloak, swordsman, aren't these the clothes of the seniors from the imprints?

Was that young man from three years ago related to the imprint on his left arm? Would he come from the Mount Daliang?

The shop owner paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and then said, "Oh right, he said something."

Li Yi asked: "What do you mean?"

The owner continued, "If anyone can pick up this sword, let them take it!"

Li Yi was silent.

Three years ago, when he had placed the sword here, no one had ever picked it up. Was he waiting for something? Who are you waiting for? Why did he put the sword here? Was it because of the owner's kindness?

All the questions that came along with it surged in.

After 10 minutes, Li Yi finally woke up. Without hesitating, he grabbed the sword hilt and tried a third time.

However, he still failed.

For some unknown reason, he had an intense feeling in his heart that the sword that that person had placed in this place was given to him.

This was his sword.

Fourth time, fifth time …

Two hours later, his face turned pale and he stopped trying.

He turned around and looked at the owner. "Why didn't you say it was for sale?" He was curious as to why, as a merchant, he would narrate these things that were completely inconsistent with his interests.

No matter how kind he was, it was still possible for him to be wary of strangers, right?

The shopkeeper glanced at him and said in a low voice, "This is a sword with a demonic element."
