Although this elixir was only the size of a thumb, it was quite heavy in the hand. Moreover, this elixir was fragrant during the refining process, but after the elixir was formed, there was no elixir fragrance at all. Those who didn't know would think that it was a counterfeit elixir used by some Jianghu necromancer.
Liu Ming looked at it quietly for a while, and his face finally showed a knowing smile. This elixir didn't look good, but people with sensitive Divine Sense could still feel the abundant medicinal power in it. This was a genuine Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir!
It was just that the purity was not high. It barely reached about 50%. It was just an ordinary elixir.
After thinking about it in his mind, he put away the elixir, and then he picked up another storage talisman like what he did …
In the following time, he concentrated on refining elixir.
Time flew by, and the years flowed like water.
After another year, after refining day and night, the success rate of the Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir finally reached 10%.
Ten years later, the success rate had increased to about thirty percent.
In the twelfth year, Liu Ming finally increased the success rate of refining the Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir to 50% after countless refinements, and in this year, he accidentally refined a standard grade elixir with one elixir pattern.
In the thirteenth year, the success rate of the Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir reached about 60%, but the probability of refining a standard grade elixir was still very low. As for the Earth Grade Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir, it never appeared once.
In the fifteenth year, Liu Ming barely increased the success rate of the Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir to 70%.
At this moment, he could faintly feel that the alchemy technique of the Vajra Bone Tempering Elixir had reached a bottleneck. He was afraid that it was impossible to improve in a short period of time. If he continued to spend time refining, it would be a bit of a waste of effort.
Refining a standard grade elixir not only depended on the alchemy technique, but also the materials of alchemy were also very important.
The small piece of shell of Luwu Tortoise that he obtained from Feng Qingmo, the young master of the Golden Jade Sect, should only be from a Luwu Tortoise that had just reached the early stage of Jin Dan, and its quality was not very good. In addition, the auxiliary materials were purchased in a hurry in the market place. He was already quite satisfied with such a success rate and refining standard grade pills.
On this day, after Liu Ming refined another Vajra Bone Tempering Pill, he took a look at the pill and put it away. Then, he cast a spell.
The Liushen Cauldron in front of him immediately flew up, spun in the air, and flew into his sleeve.
Liu Ming stood up and stretched his body. He glanced at the corner of the space.
Not far away, Fei 'er and Scorpion were still sparing no effort in cultivating their respective abilities.
At this moment, Fei 'er was transforming into 9 identical boys, flickering in the air. Their movements were so agile that it was dazzling.
As if noticing Liu Ming's gaze, the 9 boys suddenly condensed into a formation in front of them. They charged at the air wall in front of them and opened their mouths at the same time.
Nine gray fireballs were spurted out and merged together in mid-air, turning into a thick fire pillar that slammed fiercely on the air wall.
"Boom!"
Under the burst of a burst of gray light, the surface of the originally solid air wall showed a melting state under the corrosion of the filthy flame.
Moreover, the surface of the air wall was still burning fiercely, and it seemed that it could not be extinguished for a while.
"Not bad!"
Seeing this situation, a hint of appreciation flashed in Liu Ming's eyes. He praised, then he moved his gaze to another place.
The black veiled girl, Scorpion, seemed to also notice Liu Ming's appreciation for Fei 'er. She snorted arrogantly and made a gesture.
As the black veil fluttered around her body, countless yellow spots were emitted from her body.
The yellow spots gathered on the top of her head, and they slowly condensed into solid stones. The stones gathered again, gradually forming a small mountain of more than 100 meters high.
Scorpion twisted her body and gently pointed at the air wall in front of her.
The small yellow mountain above her head disappeared in a flash.
An earth-shattering loud noise!
The small mountain of more than 100 meters high directly fell from the sky like Mount Tai, slamming into the nearby air wall.
The air wall immediately flashed wildly, and cracks appeared out of thin air on the surface. It almost shattered on the spot.
"Good! It seems that you two have not slacked off in the past ten years. You have both made progress. "Liu Ming nodded to the two and said.
After encouraging them with kind words, he let them continue to practice. He walked to the Celestial Tablet not far away.
Liu Ming looked at this half-black and half-white stone tablet. He always faintly felt that this thing was very similar to the Stele of Luck he saw at the Tianmen Meeting before.
He shook his head gently. After dispelling these thoughts, he raised his arm, pressed his palm on the stone tablet, and channeled his mental power into it.
The Demonic Pupil of Illusions on the stone tablet opened.
The next moment, he only felt that his vision was blurred. When he saw the scenery in front of him again, he had already entered an illusion shrouded by a dim yellow sky.
As far as the eye could see, the ground was a barren desert. Countless stone pillars of all shapes and sizes were as wide as a person. They were all inserted into the sea of sand in a disorderly manner. At first glance, it seemed to be boundless.
Above the desert, the wind that swept through the stone forest from time to time made a ghost-like shrill sound.
People were a little unstable in the stone forest.
This was a special environment that he simulated to practice the Three Shadowy Mirages Technique.
Speaking of which, it had been decades since he started cultivating this Phantom Body Technique, but he had yet to reach the Great Perfection Realm.
Over the years, he had also spent a lot of energy on this technique. The reason why he had not achieved great success was that when the Three Shadowy Mirages Technique was practiced to the second phantasm, he would encounter a bottleneck.
There seemed to be only one difference between the three phantasms and the two phantasms at perfection, but the difference was huge.
The jade talisman that Liu Ming got at the beginning clearly stated that when the Three Shadowy Mirages Technique was practiced to perfection, it could be divided into three phantasms, and the phantasms would also have an effect at this time, which was to begin to materialize.
This effect was somewhat similar to the cloning technique of the Demon Flying Skull, but the process of materializing the phantasms could not be maintained for too long, and it also required the miraculous and exquisite control of the original body.
The predecessor who created this technique did not want the phantasms to have too high attack power, but to make them more realistic in order to achieve a higher confusion effect.
Therefore, the materialization mentioned in the jade talisman was more to make the phantasms have a certain spiritual power fluctuation, so as to achieve the effect of passing off the fake as the real one.
Liu Ming admired the predecessor who created this technique. Over the years, the Three Shadowy Mirages Technique had given him a lot of help in battle.
However, when he faced a cultivator of a higher realm, his real body was often easily seen by others, and it was inevitable that his hands and feet were tied.
The perfection of the Three Shadowy Mirages Technique was extremely difficult to break through, and it required a lot of time to practice. This was also the main reason why this technique was shelved in the Sect, and no one had been interested in it.
This time, Liu Ming could stay in this mysterious space for another sixteen or seventeen years, excluding the time spent on refining medicinal pills. There was still plenty of time, so he decided to take advantage of this opportunity to thoroughly practice this movement technique to perfection.
Liu Ming stood upright in the stone forest, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Suddenly, his body moved, and his whole person had turned into a faint black shadow, shuttling through the stone forest at an extremely fast speed.
The fierce wind was like the waves of the sea, wantonly sweeping past the two sides of the shadow. The surrounding stone forest was also extremely dense, and he needed to change direction from time to time. If he was slightly careless, he would hit the stone pillars.
Under such circumstances, Liu Ming's speed was getting faster and faster, and gradually, he became a black line.
Suddenly, the shadow blurred, and there were suddenly two more blurred phantasms beside him.
The three black shadows were extremely fast. In addition, they had to move left and right to avoid the stone pillars from time to time. Wherever they passed, they left behind three long, winding black shadows. They were like three agile loaches that plunged into the depths of the endless stone forest.
The deeper he went, the stronger the roaring wind became. It rolled up the yellow sand on the ground, and slapped into the stone forest, making a loud crackling sound.
Two hours.
Four hours.
Ten hours later, Liu Ming's body was already drenched in sweat, and his physical strength was beginning to be slightly overdrawn.
The power of the wind and sand in the stone forest was extremely strong. Maintaining a high speed for a long time against the wind naturally consumed a lot of his physical strength and spiritual power. Also, under the condition that he did not reduce his speed, controlling the direction of his body and the two phantasms at the same time was a very heavy burden on his mental strength.
Although he was quite tired, Liu Ming did not have the slightest intention of stopping. Instead, he increased his speed.
He needed to adapt to the limit of two phantasms. Only then would he have the opportunity to form a third phantom.
Only when a person is faced with a limit will they explode with their body's potential. This was also the most common method of breaking through bottlenecks.
Three months had passed.
This method was indeed very effective. Although it seemed like he was still a long way from forming a third phantom, his movement technique was becoming more agile and strange.
It should be said that he had completely adapted to this harsh environment. Moreover, as he sped, he learned to adjust the angle of his body to reduce the fierce wind that was blowing against his face. There was almost no resistance as he moved forward against the wind.
A year later.
Liu Ming had completely adapted to this kind of environment and gradually blended in with it. The effect of the wind and sand on his body and the two phantasms became smaller and smaller. It could even be ignored.
He controlled his body and the phantasms to move around in the stone forest, and it became more and more easy.
Unfortunately, he still could not break through the bottleneck.
Although he continuously tried to form a third phantom, there were many times when the third phantom just appeared and disappeared in a flash.
As a last resort, Liu Ming could only increase the difficulty of his cultivation. He doubled the density of the stone forest, and at the same time, turned the sandstorm here into a snowstorm.
The snowstorm was bone-piercing cold. It naturally had a much greater effect on the body than the sandstorm. It was also a better way to hone the cultivation of his movement technique.
