Just then, the mark on Li Yi's left arm recovered.

Juque!

The black blade!

The ancient, low, and hoarse voice of the Gods sounded like it was speaking from an endless time and space.

When the voice reached Li Yi's mind, his entire body trembled and his consciousness blurred. It was as if his soul had been devoured.

When he once again opened his eyes, he once again came to that empty world. The huge black sword stood upright in the sky, and he stood there like a tiny ant.

"A thousand years have passed."

"Child, have you opened your eyes?"

"Is your soul pious?"

Dark clouds covered the horizon and a blurry face suddenly appeared. Very soon, dark clouds gushed out and the figure became more and more solid.

Li Yi raised his head, and his pupils contracted slightly.

That figure was extremely tall, and it covered half of the sky, just like an ancient Gods. In the next moment, he stretched out his blurry big hand, as if he wanted to grab that black greatsword.

However, a streak of lightning split apart his large hand.

"My sword." As the dark clouds gathered, he felt a sense of sorrow, as if he had been trapped by some unknown force for an eternity. His tone was filled with helplessness.

"Senior." Finally, Li Yi couldn't hold back and spoke out.

However, the person on top of the black cloud did not say anything. His figure slowly disappeared and his face became more and more blurry.

"A thousand years have passed, and I've already opened my eyes. My soul is still devout." Li Yi said softly. For some reason, these words suddenly appeared in his heart.

Gradually, everything became peaceful.

Li Yi stood there quietly, looking at the black greatsword without saying a word.

After a long time, he began to practice the sword. His right hand joined together and pointed his finger at the sword, slashing, slashing and sweeping.

After an hour, his speed had increased tremendously. It was as though he had experienced the vicissitudes of time.

Of course, it was not only his swordsmanship that had improved. In fact, at this moment, the arterial pathways in his body were rapidly condensing.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but he could hear the sound of thunder rumbling inside his body. The eighth meridian point suddenly opened, and boundless essence energy penetrated through his entire body.

Li Yi suddenly woke up from his stupor, and was in a daze while dancing the sword.

"What's wrong with me?"

"Was I practicing my sword just now? But why should I feel sad? "

"Hey, the eighth meridian in my body has opened."

Li Yi revealed a shocked expression. In that moment, he had lost himself, and his consciousness and soul seemed to have fused into another dimension. He saw a figure that looked similar to him.

The figure held a huge black sword in his hand. He was practicing the sword, and it wasn't until the eighth technique had been opened that he came to his senses.

"Two more." Li Yi clenched his fists tightly, and his breathing became a little hurried.

The black imprints gave him too many surprises, including the many figures. Those figures seemed more like his seniors, constantly helping him.

"It seems like I can still make it in ten days." Li Yi's eyes burned as he turned and left the Fifth Institute.

Returning to his dwelling place, he sat upright in front of the wooden table, held the vermillion Talisman Pen and started to draw the talisman. He wanted to draw the sword images and moves.

However, an hour had passed and he had failed to draw three to five paintings.

Until now, his face was deathly pale and his eyes were bloodshot. This was a state of exhaustion, and he couldn't afford to waste time on this. Only then did he give up on drawing talismans.

"Rank 1 talismans are indeed extraordinary. They are not something that can be drawn just because you say so." Li Yi said softly. "My spiritual energy is not strong. Fortunately, this Talisman Pen has reduced the amount of energy I use up."

"I have to find a spiritual force cultivation method, otherwise, the Talisman Dao road will end." Li Yi muttered to himself.

Talisman Dao and divine techniques had one thing in common, and that was spiritual force. However, the latter tended to comprehend, while the former consumed more spiritual force.

If he did not have a powerful mental cultivation method, Li Yi's road to the Talisman Dao would have ended at the first stage, and that was not what he wanted to see.

After pondering for a long time, he put down the Talisman Pen and sat on the wooden bed.

He took out ten intermediate grade Source Stones and placed them in front of him. Each of them was about the size of four fingers and was oval in shape.

However, as long as it was inside the Kaiyuan Breaking Stone, the boundless essence energy would gush out.

10 pieces, this was a huge amount of wealth.

Looking at them, Li Yi started to hesitate. If he were to use the Talisman Dao s to cultivate, maybe he would be able to break through to the second level. But if he was using them to cultivate, would he be able to enter the meridian? This was an unknown number.

The further one cultivated, the more resources one needed. Moreover, stepping into the meridian level from the apothecary realm was not something that could be solved with one's Qi.

"Forget it, forget it!" Li Yi gritted his teeth and made a decision. With a wave of his hand, he pulled ten primeval stones into his bosom and closed his eyes.

Before long, the primeval stone had quietly melted, and the boundless essence had been absorbed by Li Yi, fusing into his Qi Sea. Eighty pulse's wheel threads quickly appeared, and new pulse's wheel threads also began to gather, one after another.

Unknowingly, the sun had already risen.

At this moment, the number of veins in Li Yi's body was eighty-seven. In other words, he had condensed seven in one night, and looking at the primeval stones in his hands, he only had three pieces remaining.

Li Yi's face darkened. An Intermediate Level primeval stone had only condensed one meridian, it wasn't even comparable to the enhancement that the black mark on his left arm had made him.

This upgrade was too expensive.

"Forget it, forget it. Since I have made my choice, I will persevere no matter what." Li Yi clenched his teeth, closed his eyes again and entered into a state of cultivation.

After a few hours, the last three primeval stones were used up, leaving behind only ashes, and at this moment, his body's pulse pulses had also condensed from 87 to 90.

In the end, the black imprint on his left arm recovered and the thick Sword Intent came crashing down, breaking open the ninth trick of his Qi Sea.

Boundless essence energy gushed out and permeated through his entire body. A strong will spread out, making him groan uncontrollably.

Li Yi opened his eyes and smiled: "One more step."

Even though this kind of increase was expensive, it greatly shortened the amount of time he cultivated. In other words, as long as he still had primeval stones, within a day or two, he would reach the peak of nine chakras.

It was a pity that ten primeval stones were used up, and poverty was on his level. Waves of pain ached through his body!

Sighing, he suppressed his thoughts and pushed open the door. The sunlight was nice, pleasant, and warm. It was already noon.

After arriving at the Fifth Institute, he did not find Qin Meng's figure, and immediately, he walked towards the depths of the Fifth Institute with large strides.

"There's something odd about these statues." Li Yi had this kind of question many times, but he had no way of starting it.

The statues varied in size and demeanor, all different, some were extremely incomplete, but Li Yi could still feel the feeling of time within them.

After a long while, he arrived at a complete statue.

This was a young silhouette. His clothes were fluttering in the wind, and he was handsome beyond compare. His pair of eyes were hollow and deep, emitting a breathtaking aura.

Instantly, when Li Yi's gaze made contact with his gaze, a loud bang resounded in his head.

Qin Meng who had just stepped into the Fifth Institute was also stunned, her entire being dumbstruck as she stared at the light white figure.
