Three years ago, something had happened in the Southern Viewing Ministry Continent, which was in other words, three thousand kilometers away from the Shang Kingdom.

A black fire burned for three months.

The outbreak of that incident also attracted the attention of several Sacred Grounds.

Therefore, there would be some cleaning up later on. Everything that possessed the magic would be determined as heresy, or maybe the existence of a demon.

At this point, all the existences that had been tainted with the 'devils' had disappeared without a trace.

Perhaps, in the entire capital, only this small shop still had such a sword, one that possessed a demonic quality.

If some people were to find out about the existence of this sword, the most frightening conclusion would be that this store's owner would also disappear from the face of the earth at the same time.

Because of this, the shop owner had been worried for three years.

Fortunately, his shop was located in a remote area, and those who could come would not be able to tell the problem of this sword.

Li Yi was silent for a long while, then said: "Then why are you telling me this now?"

The owner fell silent. He put down the sword case in his hand, turned around, and walked to the side of the stove.

The sonorous sound echoed in this small shop, and his tall and sturdy figure looked somewhat desolate at this moment.

Li Yi walked over and quietly looked at him, then at the furnace and then at his back.

An hour later.

Li Yi opened his mouth: I only have 300 crystals here, I will be taking the sword. With that said, he took out the crystal from his waist and placed it there.

The burly shopkeeper ignored him, his expression solemn and solemn, as if all his attention was focused on the fire iron in his hands.

Li Yi turned and looked at the sword in the corner, his eyes showing determination.

"Hua!"

He grabbed the hilt of the sword, as he had done the previous few times, and exerted strength. But unlike last time, he used his left hand.

As his strength increased, the huge black sword seemed to have been pulled out from the abyss. A dull sound echoed.

Soon after, the small shop began to shake.

Li Yi's eyes suddenly shone with a bright light, and with a light shout, his left hand suddenly increased in strength, and the black imprint flashed.

Crash! *

The sword was picked up by him.

He turned his head to the side and looked at Li Yi's frail body and the huge sword he had picked up. His pupils contracted and he revealed a look of shock.

"My sword!"

An oppressive voice resounded in Li Yi's mind.

The black imprint was resuscitated, and the blurry silhouette appeared once again. His large hands grabbed down, wanting to grab the lonely sword tightly. However, the ending was the same.

Soon after, many blurry and ancient scenes appeared one after another.

Only after a long, long time did everything calm down.

Li Yi's consciousness cleared and his soul returned to his body. He subconsciously looked at the black greatsword under his left hand.

The owner said with a trembling voice, "You!" He wanted to say, Why did you pick it up? However, thinking about it, he felt that asking this question wasn't right, so he didn't know what to say.

Li Yi took a deep breath, "I don't know what happened either. I had a very strong feeling just now, that's why I became like this."

When the sword was picked up, it seemed a million times lighter.

He also had a very strong feeling that this sword was one with his left hand.

Of course, there was no way he could tell the owner this.

After tying up the greatsword on his back, Li Yi expressed his gratitude and then left the shop.

What he didn't know was that not long after he left, a group of armored soldiers had arrived.

An hour later, the shop was sealed and the shop owner was sent to Kingdom Supervisor Temple as a traitor.

When Li Yi returned to the Academy, he made some more preparations. After spending an hour drawing a talisman, he immediately went to the Fifth Institute.

Qin Meng raised his head, and looked at him with a smile that was not a smile: "Are you ready?"

Li Yi replied, "Yes."

"Do you know what that means?" Qin Meng took a sip of his wine. Without waiting for Li Yi's response, he then said: "Fighting against five by one, there is no path of retreat."

Fighting against five of the strongest within the same realm.

This is an impossible challenge.

As a result, two or three months later, at this point in time, Qin Meng did not mention anything.

Fighting one against five, there was no path of retreat.

These simple eight words caused Li Yi to be silent. He thought that he had made preparations, but now it seems that he was far from being prepared to that extent.

Qin Meng stood up, sweeping over the statues in the courtyard, and asked: "What did you obtain?"

Li Yi shook his head: "I don't know, a white ball, I'm not sure what it is, but it should be related to mental energy."

Qin Meng paused, "Are you really going?"

Li Yi had a serious expression on his face as he asked, "Why not?"

Hearing that, Qin Meng laughed.

Some people said that there was no retreat in cultivation. In the past, he didn't believe it, but now, he believed it.

Five years ago, he failed.

Now, he couldn't afford to fail again.

Qin Meng revealed a turbid look, then said: "Your sword is average, and the talisman is so-so. As for the ability, I still have not learnt any techniques, if I go on like this, I will die miserably."

He smiled. "Then teach me!"

Qin Meng retracted his gaze and stared at him closely. He had a kind of deceived feeling in his heart.

But the next moment, he felt relieved. He thought to himself that he would know who was tricked.

As he walked, he said, "There are two types of sacred arts. One is to observe and comprehend the dao, and the other is to imprint your mind directly onto it."

The youth asked, "Is there any difference?"

Qin Meng looked at him with a solemn expression: "Yes, I shall observe this method and comprehend the Dao. What I comprehend is always my own and my own, while the spirit imprint inherits the way of others."

Dharmic powers were born from the heart, from the heaven and earth, from the heart, from the heaven and earth. This was the meaning of comprehending the Dharma.

A very simple example.

For people with the same level and talent, if one comprehended the Dao while the other accepted the spiritual imprint of others, then the Tao technique that the former comprehended would be even stronger than the latter.

Of course, this was limited to the same talent.

If you are unable to comprehend it, you might as well accept the teachings of someone else, and the latter is just a diameter.

"So that's how it is."

Li Yi seemed to understand and nodded his head. With an expression of "learning" on his face, he followed closely behind Qin Meng.

Qin Meng held in his anger for a while, as if he had thought of the things that had happened in the past two months. With an uneasy feeling in his heart, he couldn't help but say: "Don't think that the speed of your realm advancement is so fast, you are already a genius, you have to know that the road of cultivation is extremely long, and requires countless amounts of experience and accumulation to continue. You are still young, so don't be arrogant."

Li Yi was stunned: "Am I proud?"

Qin Meng did not bother with him, his footsteps stopped in front of a single wall, or perhaps, it could be said to be a painting wall.

The wall was over two meters tall, and its width and height were the same. The thickness of the wall was no different from an ordinary wall, and there were some special patterns imprinted on it.

Li Yi swept his gaze across the area. There were not many walls like this here, but there were quite a few, around thirty of them. Most of them were already damaged, just like the statues behind him.

Looking at the side walls, Qin Meng arrogantly said: "Do you know what my major cultivation is for your senior brother? It's a divine ability! Back then when I was trying to comprehend it here, none of your senior brothers or sisters could compare to me. "

Li Yi agreed, then asked: "Then Senior Brother, how long did it take to comprehend the technique in front of this wall?" The only thing he was worried about was the timing.

Qin Meng laughed and said proudly: "Just this one. I spent three days on it, your big senior brother took ten, your second senior sister took a month, and as for your third senior brother, it's fine if you don't even mention it! "Your talent is too bad."
