However, when his gaze fell upon the wooden box at his side, he quivered and regained some of his clarity.
Inside the wooden box, there were ten or so pieces of bright red rat meat. The color was exactly the same as when he left, and there was not the slightest change.
Liu Ming was extremely astonished.
Although the flesh of Spirit Beasts contained Fa Li, it could be preserved for a much longer time than normal meat. However, if it could still maintain its fresh appearance after half a year, it would naturally be a joke.
Liu Ming's expression changed several times. His gaze once again looked at the nearby wooden bucket that was still filled with water. His arm moved and he touched his back. Shockingly, there was a somewhat wet feeling, and the sweat on his back had not yet dried.
His expression became even more unsightly, but in the next moment, he thought of something and suddenly took out two items from his bosom.
A seemingly ordinary green wooden box, and a crudely made copper hourglass.
The green wooden box looked ordinary, and the hourglass was quietly held in his hand. The fine sand was concentrated at one end.
"So it really is like this." Liu Ming took a deep breath, and his expression became extremely interesting.
The wooden box and the hourglass were both tools that he used to calculate time.
He also clearly remembered that when he left the space, the surface of the wooden box had long been engraved with densely packed marks.
The copper hourglass was left on the ground of the mysterious space for the convenience of time measurement. When he left, he did not have the time to take it with him.
Everything that he had experienced in the mysterious space was actually an illusion. He had not entered any space at all.
What seemed like half a year of being trapped was nothing more than a dream of grandeur.
However, the half year that he had been trapped in was a bit too real. He could even clearly remember the various situations when he cultivated every day.
After Liu Ming calmed his mind, he once again gritted his teeth and sank his consciousness into his body, once again examining the situation in his Spirit Sea.
In the end, his heart slightly relaxed.
His Spirit Sea was empty, and the small bubble that had burst had astonishingly disappeared without a trace.
If it was just a big dream, and he could get rid of this evil thing, then it would be a great fortune in misfortune.
Liu Ming thought like this, but just in case, he still activated the Dark Bone Method and tried to activate his Spirit Sea.
As a result, his expression immediately changed, and he cried out involuntarily.
"Impossible! How could the magic power that disappeared be restored?"
After activating his Spirit Sea, he suddenly found that the Fa Li in his body had recovered a lot for some reason. It was more than half of the Fa Li that had been swallowed by the bubble.
What surprised him even more was that although the quantity of this newly increased magic power was far less than before, it seemed to be purer than before.
Overjoyed, Liu Ming hurriedly examined his spiritual sea again.
The misty spirit sea was still the same size as before, but the silver light it was emitting was a bit softer, and at the same time, it felt a bit more solid than before.
According to the records, this was indeed a phenomenon that would only appear after the purification of magic power.
However, not only was the purification of magic power extremely dangerous, it was also an extremely time-consuming matter!
Normally, only when a Spirit Apostle or Spirit Master was stuck at a bottleneck for many years, or when they were unable to advance, would someone take the risk to try it.
If a cultivator's Fa Li was pure, his body would be able to hold and store more Fa Li at the same realm. Moreover, when casting various spells and activating talisman tools and spirit tools, the power would be increased to a certain extent.
To Liu Ming, this was naturally a rare good thing!
Needless to say, this pure magic power was naturally the doing of the vanishing bubble.
The joy on Liu Ming's face faded slightly, and he couldn't help but sink into deep thought.
This time, he used an entire hour to think. Then, he let out a long breath and came back to his senses.
What was the origin of that bubble? Why would it swallow his Fa Li, and then cause him to have a dream of grandeur before returning a portion of the pure magic power? This was really too complicated!
Even though he thought about it a lot, he still couldn't figure out the relationship between the two.
"Whatever, no matter what, that thing is no longer there. Losing half of my Fa Li in exchange for the other half, which is even purer, isn't a loss. "Liu Ming could only shake his head as he thought.
At this time, he turned his head to look at the only open window in the room.
Outside the window, he saw the sun hanging high in the sky, emitting warm sunlight.
Liu Ming squinted his eyes.
If he remembered correctly, before he was pulled into that strange space, the sun seemed to be in the same position in the sky.
It seemed that his experience of the dream of grandeur was something that had happened in an instant.
As Liu Ming thought about this, he stood up, pushed open the wooden door, and walked out of the room.
He stood in the small courtyard and spread out his arms under the unobstructed sunlight. He felt a warm power shine on his entire body, and his state of mind unconsciously calmed down.
Living alone in that mysterious space for half a year really was a test of one's willpower.
Even when he thought about it now, his heart still palpitated with fear.
It was a good thing that he had only been out for half a year. If it had been any longer, even if it was just a dream, it would have left quite a bit of mental damage.
When Liu Ming thought about his mental strength, he immediately opened his eyes.
He discovered that his mental strength seemed to have increased a bit compared to before the dream of grandeur. Although it wasn't obvious, it had definitely increased.
Liu Ming revealed a bitter smile.
In this way, it could be said that he had profited from a disaster.
As he thought about this, his gaze casually turned and landed on a large green tree outside of the small courtyard.
Next to this tree, there had originally been a small tree, but it had long since turned into a bare tree stump.
Seeing this, Liu Ming couldn't help but smile. He almost unconsciously raised his arm and casually began to chant.
"Pu, pu." Two fist-sized scarlet fireballs instantly appeared in his hands. With another flash, they transformed into two balls of red light that struck the large green tree.
"Boom, boom!" Two loud sounds rang out.
The large tree was immediately engulfed by the rolling scarlet flames, turning into a pile of black ash in an instant.
Liu Ming's originally smiling face immediately froze.
This was the Fireball Technique that he had practiced in the mysterious space to the small success stage. But wasn't that experience just a dream? How could he use it so skillfully now?
The corner of Liu Ming's mouth twitched. Suddenly, the incantation in his mouth changed. His two hands moved, and a white line shot out.
In a flash!
On a huge mountain rock under the large green tree, two thumb-sized holes appeared out of nowhere.
This was the Water Arrow Technique that he had also practiced.
After Liu Ming licked his somewhat dry lips, his eyes filled with a fiery expression. Without saying anything else, he once again chanted the incantation and raised his two hands again.
"Puff! Puff!" Six green Wind Blades shot out in an extremely short period of time. In the blink of an eye, the mountain rock was chopped into seven or eight pieces.
Impressively, it was the Wind Blade Technique that he had practiced the most.
"So it really is like this. The techniques that I practiced in the mysterious space are all equally effective. "After Liu Ming muttered a few times, his face was filled with ecstasy.
He continued to use various techniques in the small courtyard until the last trace of Fa Li in his body was used up. Only then did he stop and lie down on the grass in the small courtyard. His eyes were tightly shut, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.
"What a pity. If I had known that the mysterious space had such a miraculous effect, I would have stayed for a while longer. "Liu Ming let out a long sigh, opened his eyes, and slowly stood up.
At this moment, no matter how muddle-headed he was, he was very clear that his experience in the mysterious space was definitely not something as simple as a dream.
However, no matter how much of a pity it was, the small bubble no longer existed.
He could not possibly repeat this kind of experience. He could only treat the matter of the mysterious space as his own good fortune.
After Liu Ming finally recovered his normal state of mind, he returned to the cultivation room.
A few days later, after he had consumed and refined the last bit of rat meat, he continued to cultivate in his residence for more than half a month.
On this day, Liu Ming felt that he had finished all of his preparations. He finally left his residence and went straight to the Duty Hall.
Four months later, at the side of a pond that emitted a strange cold several hundred miles away from the Barbarian Ghost Sect, there was a bamboo pole that was as thick as the mouth of a bowl. One end of the pole was stabbed into the ground, and the other end was hung with a white rope.
At the end of the rope hung a gray fat rabbit!
This rabbit would occasionally kick its legs weakly. It was unknown how long it had been hanging under the bamboo pole.
With a "hua la" sound, a strange fish with the mouth of an eagle and the body of a snake suddenly rushed out of the pond. It opened its mouth and bit at the fat rabbit.
With a "pu" sound, a black rope shot out from a shrub near the bamboo pole like lightning. In an instant, it wrapped around the strange white fish and pulled it to the front of the shrub.
Under the shock of the strange fish, it let out a "gua gua" sound. At the same time, it opened its mouth and spat out a line of white water, making the nearby ground into a mess.
After a while, the strange fish became listless. Finally, the line of water in its mouth stopped and it could only lie on the ground, not moving.
"This Eagle Beak Fish is really cunning. However, after two days and two nights, it still obediently took the bait."
A light laugh came from the shrub to the side. An ordinary looking youth in a green robe walked out with a smile on his face.
It was Liu Ming.
He walked a few steps to the front of the strange fish and kicked it with his foot. Then, he calmly took out a fish basket from his back and picked up the strange fish and put it into the basket.
When Liu Ming turned around and was about to leave, his gaze suddenly swept over the gray rabbit hanging on the bamboo pole. He couldn't help but say to himself:
"This time, you have helped me a lot. I will spare your life."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and a green wind blade instantly shot out, cutting the rope in two.
Once the gray fat rabbit was free in the air, it immediately kicked its legs and rolled to the shore. Then, with an agility that didn't match its body, it quickly escaped into the nearby bushes and disappeared.
Seeing this, Liu Ming smiled slightly. He immediately formed a hand sign and was about to fly into the air with the fish basket on his back.
