Another two years passed just like that.
Through daily training, Liu Ming once again adapted to the environment, and at this time, he was obviously more proficient in controlling the phantasm than before. The materialization of the phantasm and the spiritual power fluctuations it emitted were getting closer to the real body.
However, the condensation of the fourth shadow was still not completely successful.
Therefore, he increased the difficulty again without hesitation.
Time passed little by little. One year, two years, five years passed in the blink of an eye.
Liu Ming's original body was shrouded in black gas. His whole person was like a black ghost, shuttling nimbly in the stone forest without the slightest sound.
Beside him were still two phantoms that looked exactly the same as him, but these two phantoms were clearly more complete than before. They had hands and feet, and even the facial features of their heads could be seen clearly.
In the midst of galloping, under the rolling black gas, there was almost no difference from the original body.
Now, the moment he was in danger, he would subconsciously integrate into the surrounding environment. When he was running, his body would also adjust to the best angle according to the surrounding environment like a conditioned reflex.
Moreover, he didn't seem to need to deliberately control the two shadows beside him. It was as if they were a part of his body.
As long as his mind moved, the shadows would move.
Unknowingly, his spirit seemed to have entered a wonderful state, and everything around him seemed to have become a little ethereal.
And deep in his body, a feeling of agitation emerged.
Almost subconsciously, Liu Ming urged the spiritual power in his body. The black gas on the surface of his body suddenly flourished, and behind him, a third shadow appeared in a flash!
The moment the third pitch-black shadow appeared behind him, it ran along with the original three figures. Whether it was in terms of speed or appearance, there was no difference at all.
This process was so natural, as if he didn't condense the third shadow at all, but the third shadow itself should be a part of his body.
It was just that after being separated for many years, it was now back!
This was the feeling!
And now, each of these three shadows began to emit a faint fluctuation of spiritual power, and it seemed that they had a little more spirituality.
The Great Art of Three Shadowy Shadows finally completed the last step of cultivation.
In the next moment, Liu Ming abruptly broke free from the ethereal state, and a look of wild joy appeared on his face.
Then, with a thought, he turned into a black shadow and shot out. The three phantoms automatically followed him.
Looking from afar, it was impossible to tell which of the four black figures was the real one, no matter from their appearance, movements, or the spiritual power fluctuations they emitted!
Liu Ming was in a good mood. He flew faster and faster. The four black shadows separated and separated. Wherever they passed, countless afterimages appeared. Although there were only four black shadows, it looked as if there were thousands of shadows flying around.
Suddenly, all of the figures converged and turned into a single person, standing quietly on top of a rock.
It was Liu Ming.
The smile on his face deepened, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
He could feel that the Three Shadowy Mirages Great Art of Perfection had become much more practical.
The only drawback was that the consumption of spiritual power was also much faster than before.
However, since this technique had been perfected, he immediately stopped the cultivation of this mystic art. After thinking about it, he decided to use the remaining time to continue actual combat training through the Celestial Tablet's Illusive Demonic Pupil.
…
The thirtieth year after Liu Ming entered the mysterious space, in the illusion.
A black figure and a man covered in purple lightning were chasing each other in a barren mountain.
It was Liu Ming and the Southern Wasteland Celestial State beastkin cultivator, Thunder Beastkin, Lie Zhentian!
Liu Ming had also simulated the battle with Thunder Beastkin in the illusion before, but he mainly practiced his escape technique at that time. This time, he planned to confront Thunder Beastkin, the Celestial State powerhouse.
He didn't expect to defeat the Celestial State cultivator, but he just wanted to practice his ability to adapt to the Celestial State cultivator.
A pale golden sword light under Liu Ming's feet lifted his body. He moved between several mountains, leaving a series of afterimages. His figure was extremely agile.
Behind him, the purple lightning around Thunder Beastkin turned into a thick lightning that could tear everything apart. The purple lightning flashed and blasted at Liu Ming in front.
"Boom", an earth-shattering noise!
A small mountain in front of him turned into a pile of gravel the moment the purple lightning reached.
Liu Ming in front of him somehow twisted his body and dodged it easily. He wasn't injured at all, and his speed seemed to have increased by one point inadvertently.
Thunder Beastkin roared. In the lightning, he waved his arms, and 2 thick purple spears rushed out, tearing the air and hitting Liu Ming in front of him.
This time, Liu Ming didn't dodge.
At the same time as the opponent launched the attack, he turned around like lightning. After a muffled groan, he punched out violently. The spiritual power in his body surged, and black mist rolled out from his body surface. With a few muffled sounds, the black mist quickly condensed into 5 huge black dragons and 5 swift black tigers phantasms.
The 5 dragons and 5 tigers stood up in a circle behind him. As they roared, they spouted billowing black flames from their mouths at the 2 purple lightning spears.
However, the two purple lightning spears lit up and shot out over a dozen arm-thick bolts of lightning, easily sweeping away the surging black flames.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed and his hand signs quickly changed. The five dragons and five tigers followed his movements and rushed out. After a violent shake, they all left their bodies and fused together in the air. They transformed into a giant black beast with two horns on its head and four claws on its feet.
This beast was more than 100 meters in size. Its body was like a tiger but not a tiger, like a dragon but not a dragon. Its body was covered with black scales. There were bursts of black light when the scales opened and closed. It looked lifelike like a living creature.
At the same time, a powerful breath exuded from its body.
"Go!"
Liu Ming frowned and waved his arm suddenly.
The black giant beast immediately opened its mouth and moved its 4 feet. Its huge body instantly became blurred, then it turned into a black gale and pounced at the purple lightning spears.
Seeing this situation, Thunder Beastkin sneered.
He didn't see how he moved, but the 2 purple spears intersected and burst out a strong electric light. The purple light soared into the sky, making people unable to look directly at it.
"Boom", there was an earth-shattering noise.
The purple lightning and the black giant beast collided with each other. The purple light and black light intertwined, seeming to be in a stalemate.
But at the next moment, the black giant beast let out a whine, and its body collapsed.
Although the purple spears dispersed the black giant beast, their momentum also paused involuntarily.
Liu Ming's face turned pale, but after taking a deep breath, he launched a symbol on the golden flying sword under him.
The golden light around him thickened, and instantly condensed into a giant sword phantom that was over a hundred feet in size.
"Swoosh"!
The golden lightning wrapped his body, and his escape speed accelerated instantly. He finally escaped the 2 lightning spears by a hair's breadth. It was really dangerous!
"Rumble", there was an earth-shattering noise!
Under the impact of the 2 purple lightning spears, a mountain in front of Liu Ming suddenly burst into 2 dazzling purple lightning balls.
After the lightning disappeared, two dark pits, more than two hundred feet deep, could be seen on the mountain. Dense cobweb-like cracks spread out from the deep pits, and countless large and small stones tumbled down from them.
Seeing this, Thunder Beastkin let out an angry roar.
Liu Ming looked back at Thunder Beastkin's figure deeply. The black brilliance on his body flowed faintly. After a while, his expression returned to normal.
He made a sword gesture, and the golden sword light turned and flew away in a zigzag shape, bypassing the crumbling mountain in front and continuing to fly away.
After countless challenges, he was already familiar with the various spells and casting habits of Thunder Beastkin. Although he still couldn't resist this Celestial State beastkin cultivator head-on, he still had a lot of energy to dodge the attacks.
A sharp light flashed in Thunder Beastkin's eyes. Through the layers of lightning, he could clearly feel the strong murderous aura exuding from his body.
He raised one hand and drew in the air in front of him. A purple lightning arc as thick as a bucket burst out and turned into a dozen snake-shaped lightning bolts, tearing the air and sweeping forward in a fan shape.
Every snake-shaped lightning bolt was as thick as an arm, and there were many short forked lightning bolts on top of them. The lightning bolts tore through the air, covering a wide area. Everything in their path was reduced to nothingness.
The lightning speed was also extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it was less than 100 meters behind Liu Ming. It was about to strike him.
Liu Ming just took a breath and glanced at it. He immediately recognized that this was a high-level lightning spell. It could be launched instantly by a Celestial State cultivator.
In the face of such a large-scale attack, it was impossible for him to evade. His expression darkened, and he waved a hand seal through the air. The golden sword Qi around him disappeared in a flash, and an indistinct golden flying sword quickly disappeared into his sleeve.
At the same time, the black light on his body shone brightly. He paused in mid-air and began to spin rapidly. He suddenly turned into a rolling black cloud.
In the black cloud, a green light emerged, and a green bull phantasm appeared vaguely, letting out a deep hum.
The next moment, the purple lightning surged and shrouded the surrounding thousand meters.
The glaring purple light was extremely bright, illuminating the gloomy sky. However, it quickly dissipated.
A deep pit appeared on the ground. It was more than 3 feet deep. It was scorched black, and black smoke was billowing out.
At this moment, a dark figure flew out of the black gas. It was Liu Ming.
However, at this moment, his face was gray and black. Many of the black hair on his head stood upright. His clothes were also scorched, and some places were even emitting black smoke.
"Pfft, the power of a high-level spell cast by a Celestial State cultivator is really outrageous …" Liu Ming opened his mouth and spat a few times. The breath he exhaled from his mouth seemed to carry traces of black smoke.
