The Dagger Spirit!

Meanwhile, the two were still confused about Ye Qian's condition and what was really happening to him.

In fact, after being present for thousands of years, the weapons themselves would develop a spirit on their own or if they were absorbing a lot of Spiritual Energy from the surroundings that were in or the spiritual energy from the other spiritual treasures surrounding them and were comparatively weaker than the one.

But there was a great difference between having a  spirit and a conscience.
